The City of Dubuque Zoning Advisory Commission has reviewed the above-Cited

The Zoning Advisory Commission discussed the request, noting that the lot split will not
adversely impact adjacent property.

By a vote of 6 to 0, the Zoning Advisory Commission recommends that the City Council

Zoning Advisory Commission
Plat Survey of Lot 1 of 5 and Lot 2 of 5 of Patricia Ann Acres Subdivision
No. 2
INTRODUCTTON
The submitted plat of survey splits the existing Lot 5 of Patricia Ann Acres Subdivision
No. 2 into two lots. Lot 2 of 5 is 7,973 square feet in size and a portion of the parking
lot for Edwards Cast Stone Company is located on this lot. The balance of property is
contained in Lot 1 of 5, which is approximately 6.5 acres in size. Neither lot has
sutT3cient lot frontage as required by the City of Dubuque Subdivision Regulations.
DZSCUSSZON
The submitted plat of survey of Lot 1 of 5 and Lot 2 of 5 of Patrida Ann Acres
Subdivision No. 2 splits an existing lot into two smaller parcels. Lot 2 of 5 is currently
zoned Planned Industrial, while Lot 1 of 5 is zoned R-1 Single-Family Residential. As
recently as 1990, the property designated as Lot 1 of 5 was anticipated to be developed
for single-family homes. Lot 1 of 5 has 50 feet of lot frontage on Patricia Ann Drive.
City records indicate that a street would have been built connecting to Patricia Ann
Drive and extended to the southwest to serve the area now induded in Lot 1 of 5. The
submitted plat of survey does not prevent future development of Lot 1 of 5 for
residential purposes.
RECOMMENDATZON
Planning Staff recommends the plat of survey of Lot 1 of 5 and Lot 2 of 5 of Patricia
Ann Acres Subdivision No. 2 be approved subject to waiving lot frontage requirements
for Lot 1 of 5 and Lot 2 of 5. The splitting of the lot does not adversely impact
adjacent properties and does not prevent the future development of the property or
adjacent property.
