Dyer plan panel approves 2‑lot Warren subdivision at 2422–2424 Andrew Drive
Summary
The Dyer Plan Commission approved both the primary and final plats for a two‑lot split at 2422–2424 Andrew Drive after the applicant said the detached garage straddles the existing lot line and the Board of Zoning Appeals granted 11 variances contingent on commission approval.
The Dyer Plan Commission on June 15 approved a primary and final plat to split 2422–2424 Andrew Drive into two single‑family building lots.
Jacob Warren, who said he was representing property owners Michael and Christy, told the commission the interior lot line would be adjusted so the existing detached garage — which currently sits entirely on the same lot as the house — would no longer divide the house and the new lot. "We're looking to adjust the lot line," Warren said, adding the proposed new house would "fit within the neighborhood" and would be used as a residence for his brother, a firefighter.
Planning staff explained to commissioners that an aerial and a site drawing in the meeting packet show the small dashed lot‑line shift between lots three and four. Staff said the change affects only the internal lot line; the front lot lines would remain 50 feet. Commissioners and staff also confirmed that the Board of Zoning Appeals had granted a total of 11 variances (five for one lot and six for the other) that are contingent on the plan commission's approval of the lot split.
The commission opened the hearing for public comment and invited members of the public to identify themselves and speak; no members of the public came forward. A commissioner moved and another seconded approval of the primary plat (Item 6‑1); after a roll‑call vote the motion carried. The commission then approved the final plat for the Warren subdivision (Item 6‑2) by motion and roll call.
The commission did not record detailed vote tallies in the transcript beyond commissioners voicing assent; the chair declared both motions carried. The commission adjourned after completing the agenda.
The plan commission’s approval permits the applicants to proceed with the lot split and the variances granted by the Board of Zoning Appeals remain contingent on that approval. Additional permits or inspections required for construction were not discussed at the meeting and were not specified in the record.
