ZONING & RESOLUTIONS 11-10-03
The Board discussed interpretations of the 250' road frontage requirements. Keith Dabney, Director of Zoning & Codes, was present for the discussion. Dabney explained that the current Home Rule Resolution No. HR-02-3-1 d s not specifically define "frontage" which has created confusion. Dabney presented a resolution prepared by Evan Ice, County Counselor, which includes the following definition of frontage:
The term "frontage" means the portion of private property touching the adjacent public right-of-way from which the property gains its primary access, provided, however, that such private property must have a depth of a minimum of 500 feet. Any portion of property having an uninterrupted depth of less than 250 feet from the edge of the public right-of-way to the back line of the property shall not be deemed frontage for purposes of this Resolution. The purpose of this definition is to prohibit the issuance of building permits for irregularly shaped tracts of property having 250 feet of width touching the public right-of-way, but within 250 feet of the public right-of-way narrowing to less than 250 feet in width.
Johnson stated this was the original intent of the Board and questioned the need for a grandfather clause. Jones made the suggestion that the grandfather clause be narrow and requested that staff be directed to make revisions to the proposed resolution with the new language inserted in italics for consideration on Novem ber 12th. No action was taken.
