Staff cites 2022 Dalrock Road precedent that enabled infill development
Summary
Staff referenced a 2022 variance at 9405 Dalrock Road as a precedent where allowing an inlet/driveway helped develop previously undevelopable infill lots; staff said that approval led to successful development and reported no accidents on that stretch since.
City staff told the meeting that a prior variance at 9405 Dalrock Road, granted in 2022, allowed access that made two previously undevelopable infill lots buildable and enabled use of a common drive entrance. Staff characterized that precedent as evidence the requested variance can enable infill without causing traffic incidents on that segment of Dalrock Road.
“By allowing that 1 inlet on the Dalrock Road, it resulted in the successful development of 2 previously undevelopable infill lots,” the staff member said. The staff member also told the group that the comparable location has not had reported accidents since the earlier variance was approved. The transcript records the staff comparison but does not include supporting crash data or an independent traffic study in the provided record.
