Summary

Owner Alquin Heinnickel asked to subdivide parcel 57-16-00-0-013 into two lots; the Planning Commission recommended preliminary approval but required note edits specifying a 30-foot front building setback and minimum lot sizes (2.0 acres commercial; 1.0 acre residential with 125-foot frontage) and requested a written modification if commercial minimums are changed.

The Planning Commission reviewed a subdivision request by owner Alquin Heinnickel to split tax parcel 57-16-00-0-013 into two lots for future development and recommended preliminary approval on Nov. 6 with conditions.

Surveyor Ryan Jones and Mr. Heinnickel presented the plan. The commission required the Plan notes be amended to state: a 30-foot front building line setback; a 2.0-acre minimum lot size for commercial developments (Section 601(B)(2)); and a 1.0-acre minimum lot size with at least 125 feet of frontage for residential developments. The commission said any request to modify the commercial minimum-lot-size requirement must be submitted in writing and, if approved, an explanatory note must appear on the recorded plan. The commission also agreed to send a time-waiver to Mr. Heinnickel so the township is not held to the 90-day review deadline while details are resolved.

Chair Connie Mattei and Member Paul Holleran moved and seconded the recommendation for preliminary approval subject to the stated notes and documentation requirements. The commission noted there is no separate SALDO frontage requirement for commercial properties beyond the stated minimums.
