Affidavit of posting - Exhibit I.
Jeffrey stepped down.
Derek chaired.
Amy said this is a 9,000 square foot lot on Main Street and it was reviewed
recently for a lot split which the applicant is not going to execute. They do
not have immediate plans for how the property will be developed in the
future. The shed is not on the 1904 Sanborn fire insurance maps. It is also
not along the alley which is a typical pattern of where a building of that
period would be located. There are no files in the building department to
indicate when the thing was constructed. Staff finds that there is no
historical evidence of this shed and recommends approval off demolition.
Will Stratton, representing Scott Lambert. Will said Amy addressed the
issues and he has nothing further to add.
Derek said he thinks the shed is sitting on dirt with a small piece of concrete
under the entrance.

640 N. THIRD - LANDMARK LOT SPLIT - PUBLIC HEARING
Jeffrey, Michael and Sarah were seated.
Affidavit of posting - Exhibit I
Amy said the lot is 11,707 square feet. They are dividing it into a southern
lot of 5707 that will contain the Victorian house and a northerly lot of 6,000
square feet. That will be redeveloped in the future. The standards are black
and white and they are in the right zone district. The dimensions of the lot
are the correct size and they have indicated how the FAR will be allocated.
Staff recommends approval of the lot split.
Jeff Lester with Charles Cunniffe Architects presented for the owner Jim
Daggs who has lived on the property for over 27 years. We put the project
on hold for a couple of years which outlived the prior approval. The project
is basically the same. The City supports lot splits as it is better to have two
smaller houses on two lots, rather than one larger house on one lot.
Chairperson, Jeffrey Halferty opened the public hearing. There were no
public comments. The public comment section was closed.
Alison said she has no issues with the lot split. At the last meeting HPC
encouraged the applicant to come in for a lot split.
