Summary

A request to waive lot-intensity for property at 6909 Weaver Road was deferred after staff found a recorded plat listing the parcel at 2.17 acres while county deed records list 1.7 acres; the board directed staff to research and deferred action to the February meeting.

A request by Sean LeBaron for a waiver of lot intensity at 6909 Weaver Road was deferred after staff and board members identified conflicting recorded documents about the parcel’s acreage.

Staff reported a recorded plat showing the parcel at 2.17 acres, which—if controlling—would eliminate the need for a variance. County records attached to KGIS instead show a deed for 1.7 acres. When LeBaron arrived and was sworn in, he said family records had suggested the property was over two acres; staff and board members agreed they needed additional research before granting or denying the waiver. One board member summarized the issue plainly: "If that's the case, you don't need a variance." The board voted to defer the item to the February meeting to allow staff to reconcile the recorded plat and deed.

What the board asked staff to do: review recorded plats and deeds for the parcel, check KGIS records and confirm whether a plat recorded in November 2016 supersedes or coexists with the September 2016 deed. If the property is 2.17 acres, the variance would not be required; if not, the applicant should return with clarifying survey information.

Next step: staff follow-up; item is scheduled for the February meeting unless staff determines no variance is necessary.
