To: Planning Commission
From: Justin Fortney, City Planner
Date: November 25, 2024
Item: Minor Subdivision – 1915 Eddy Street – Thomas Kane
Planning Commission Action Requested Hold a public hearing and recommend action on the
minor subdivision request of Thomas Kane. This action will create two separate lots.
Background information: The former home on this lot was demolished in 1997 after fire
damage. The applicant proposes to split the lot into two lots for the construction of a twin home.
both homes are proposed to be at grade entry level and handicap accessible, slab on grade, and
roughly 1,000 – 1,200 Sq Ft each. The lot split will allow the units to be sold separately as
opposed to the construction of a duplex.
The following requirements apply to the creation of an additional residential lot.
- One Parkland Dedication Fee of $3,200 per unit (2024)
- One Interceptor Sewer Fee of $485.00
Construction of a twin home requires an administrative building permit. At that time, a
Certificate of Survey with grading plan is required to assure no additional drainage will flow to
neighboring properties and setbacks are met (20’ front/ rear, 7’ sides).
The following requirements apply to the construction of every residential unit.
- WAC (Water Availability Charge) $2,957.00
- SAC (Sewer Availability Charge) $945.00
- One Boulevard tree per 50-feet of street frontage
- One front yard tree per unit.
- Units on separate lots must install their own service-lines to their mains.
Comprehensive Plan Classification: The 2040 Comprehensive Plan designates the property as
medium density residential.
Zoning Classification: The property is zoned R-3, Medium-High Density Residence.
X-C-02
Adjacent Zoning and Land Use
Direction Property Use Zoning Comp Plan
North Single-family home R-3 Medium density residential
East Vacant commercial land C-3 Commercial
South Single-family home R-3 Medium density residential
West Single-family and Twin home R-2 Low density residential
Existing Condition: The site is vacant, grass, and flat. There is an existing twin-home at 1908-A1
and A2, just north of the property across the street. That property was the same size in width but
far deeper.
Minor Subdivision Review The two proposed parcels meet the minimum lot size of 5,000 Sq Ft
(5,445 Sf). This includes the property owned by the applicant but used by the city for Eddy Street
with a roadway easement. Typically, that area is dedicated to the city as right of-way and no
longer part of the property.
Notification: Notification of the request was published and mailed to all property owners within
350 feet. Staff received the following comments by phone:
- Randy Ficker – 1923 Eddy St – He is opposed to the property split; lot is too small to split.
Concerned with a potential low income home. Should be one lot.
- Phone Message – Did not leave name or number. Stated opposition to the duplex
Recommendation: Approval of the minor subdivision is recommended with the following
conditions:
5. Survey of the property, consistent with the information provided in the Land Use Application
and the Planning Commission Staff report dated November 25, 2024
6. Payment of $485.00 for sewer interceptor fee of one new lot.
7. Payment of $3,200.00 for park dedication fee of one new lot.
8. Any use or construction must comply with city ordinances and applicable fees.
