Item 6E Department of Planning & Development Services S T A F F R E P O R T January 9, 2008 ZA06-046 CASE NO: Plat Revision for Lot 2RB2AR, Block 1, Burnett Acres PROJECT: REQUEST: Approval of a plat revision containing approximately 4 acres and proposing 1 single family residential lot. The purpose of this request is to replat the northern 2 acre portion of Lot 1, Block 1 Arnold Estates and combine it with an existing 2 acre legal lot of record within the adjacent Burnett Acres. Lot 1, Block 1, Arnold Estates was platted as a single 4.96 acre lot. The lot was subdivided by metes and bounds into a 2 acre tract (northern portion) with no physical street frontage and a 3 acre tract (southern portion) fronting East Highland Street. The subdivision was done without filing a plat with the City as required by the Subdivision Ordinance No. 483, as amended. The properties are now under two different ownerships other than the person who appears to have created the subdivision. The primary access for the 2 acre tract has been through a 20 ft. wide ingress-egress easement extending to E. Highland Street through the center of the southern 3 acre portion of Arnold Estates. This easement has been relocated along the east boundary of the 3 acres fronting E. Highland Street by an easement agreement executed and recorded in the County by the two owners. This plat is being submitted to comply with the Subdivision Ordinance requirements. The plat proposed will resolve the lack of any street frontage as defined by the Subdivision Ordinance by combining the 2 acre portion of Arnold Estates with the 2 acre lot of Burnett Acres which has street frontage on Shady Oaks for a single residential lot of approximately 4 acres.
