Subject: Case No. 2007-12 (Administrative Subdivision - Lots 1 and 2, Block 1 T.L. 5th)
Jon,
I reviewed the application with AI and Cassie and do not have any concerns with the subdivision of lots 1 & 2,
block 1 of Towne Lakes 5th. The subdivision does not impact water and sewer service to the sites and will still
allow for driveway placement and separation that meet code requirements (40' from intersection).
If approved, please add this subdivision information to the files for each lot so we can ensure we receive and
review accurate lot surveys when the building permits come in. The lot surveys need to reflect and depict this
property line shift and added easement. Also, as part of the lot surveys for these two lots, new property corner
monumentation will be required.
Please let me know if you have any questions,

MEMORANDUM

RE:
Albertville - Lot 1 and Lot 2 Block 1
Towne Lakes 5th Addition Minor Subdivision
NAC FILE:
163.06 - 07.22
K. Hovnanian Homes has applied for a minor subdivision between two lots within Towne
Lakes 5th Addition. The proposed subdivision will affect Lot 1 and Lot 2 of Block 1
Towne Lakes 5th Addition at the corner of 68th Street NE and Lancaster Way. The
application is to expand Lot 2 by shifting the property line 5 feet to the west
incorporating a portion of Lot 1. Currently Lot 2 does not meet the approved housing
layouts; therefore, the new lot arrangement will ensure that the home sites are
compatible with existing architecture. The minor subdivision will also create a 15 foot
drainage and utility easement.
Review of the submitted sketch and legal description is found to be satisfactory. Staff
recommends administrative approval with the following conditions:
1. On Lot 1 and Lot 2 the garage must be place the on the east property line to
meet the required setbacks.
2. The subdivision shall be recorded with the Wright Country prior to receiving a
building permit for the lots.
