Final Plat of Lots 1 and 2 of C and Z Addition
Dear Mayor and City Council Members:
The City of Dubuque Zoning Advisory Commission has reviewed the above-cited
request. The application, staff report and related materials are attached for your
review.
Discussion
Staff reviewed the proposed final plat indicating that the plat corrects a survey error
made many years ago. The plat also corrects the encroachment of Mr. Clinton's
house onto the Zahina property.
There were no public comments.
The Zoning Advisory Commission discussed the request, noting that the plat does not
adversely impact adjacent property owners and will protect the value of the two
affected properties.
Recommendation
By a vote of 6 to 0, the Zoning Advisory Commission recommends that the City
Council approve the request, waiving the lot frontage and lot area requirements of the
Subdivision Regulations. ~
A simple majority vote is needed for the City Council to approve the request. ~
Respectfully submitted,
Eugene Bird, Jr., Chairperson
Zoning Advisory Commission

Kyle L. Kritz, Associate Planner
Final Plat Lots 1 and 2 of C and Z Addition
INTRODUCTION
The submitted final plat of Lots 1 and 2 of C and Z Addition resubdivides and
consolidates four existing lots on South Grandview Avenue into two lots. The
resubdivision was necessary as the owner of Lot 2, Roland Clinton, found that a small
portion of his house encroached on the property of Richard J. and Patricia M. Zahina,
Lot 1.
DISCUSSION
The submitted final plats of Lots 1 and 2 of C and Z Addition corrects a long standing
platting problem along South Grandview Avenue by consolidating four lots into two, and
shifting the lot line between the two lots to place Mr. Clinton's house entirely on his
property. The final plat is being reviewed by the Zoning Advisory Commission because
the two lots created are substandard in terms of lot frontage and lot area.
']'he lots along this portion of South Grandview Avenue all tend to have less than 60
feet of lot frontage and 6,000 square feet of lot area. The two lots created by the final
plat of Lots 1 and 2 of C and Z Addition are currently occupied by a single-family house
on each lot. The new subdivision will not adversely impact adjacent property or future
improvements to those properties.
RECOMMENDATION
The submitted final plat of Lots 1 and 2 of C and Z Addition is in substantial compliance
with the City of Dubuque Subdivision Regulations. Planning staff recommends that the
final plat be approved subject to waiving lot frontage requirements and lot area
requirements for both Lots 1 and 2.
