Applicant seeks lot line adjustment for six-acre property; commission requires official survey

An applicant asked the Planning Commission to allow a lot line adjustment that would separate roughly one acre from a six-acre property, leaving a five-acre parcel with the house to be sold.

Commissioners told the applicant they could not vote on the request without the official survey and maps. The applicant said survey markers are in place but that the written survey paperwork had not yet been received from the surveyor.

The applicant described the parcel as two acres along 2400 North, four acres extending south, and provided the site location as 5355 West. He said the one-acre portion to be retained is on the road and the five-acre parcel would extend straight back as pasture. Commissioners noted that part of the property had been annexed into the city and that zoning was listed in the discussion as classification '1'.

"I'm on 6 acres... I wanna separate the acre to the west and keep it and then just sell the 5 acre parcel with the house," the applicant said, adding that markers are set but the formal survey paperwork had not yet been delivered.

Commission members repeatedly stated they could not approve or sign off on a lot line adjustment without the completed map from the surveyor. One commissioner summarized the practical options: either wait for the survey paperwork to arrive for the next regular meeting or call a special meeting if the map arrives sooner. The commission also clarified that a lot line adjustment is not the same as a subdivision and identified a required map/submission (referred to in the transcript as "MILARP").

Staff and commissioners set the next regular meeting for June 10 and asked the applicant to notify staff if the survey is submitted earlier so the commission could consider convening sooner. No formal vote on the lot line adjustment was taken at this meeting.

The commission will revisit the item once the applicant provides the required survey and map documentation.
