#05 Certified Survey Map 09005 - 2 lots on Pine Street
Community Development Department Memorandum
September 9, 2009
TO: Janesville City Council
FROM: Duane Cherek, Manager of Planning Services
SUBJECT: Final CSM 09005-C, Dan Fuerstenberg, 1 Lot and 1 Outlot on S. Pine
Street.
I. RECOMMENDATION
The Plan Commission and Community Development Department recommends
that the City Council support a motion to approve Final CSM 09005-C.
City Manager recommendation
The City Manager concurs with the Plan Commission.
II. REQUEST
Dan Fuerstenberg requests approval of a certified survey map that will create 1
Lot and 1 Outlot located along S. Pine Street. The subject property includes an
existing lot that is currently developed with a single-family residence and
detached garage. The owner wishes to create a separate lot for the residence
and garage on Lot 1, and retain the undeveloped portion of the property as Outlot
1. The outlot adjoins the owner’s auto repair business on the adjoining property
to the west. The property is split zoned between the R2-General Residence
District and the B3-General Commercial District.
III. ANALYSIS
A. The south portion of the survey area was rezoned from R2 to B3 earlier this
year to accommodate a proposed expansion of the applicant’s auto repair use
and placement of mini-storage units on Outlot 1. While the applicant’s plans
for commercial expansion have not transpired, he would like to pursue the
creation of a separate lot containing the residence and garage. This lot is
intended to be sold to the tenant currently occupying the residence.
B. The survey proposes to subdivide a 0.58 acre lot into two lots. Proposed Lot
1 is zoned R3 and contains an existing residence and detached garage. The
undeveloped portion of the site is being surveyed as an outlot. The outlot will
need to be resurveyed and combined with the applicant’s adjoining property
to the west if developed as intended to accommodate a business expansion.
C. The proposed lots comply with the standards of the Subdivision Ordinance.
D. Since the land has been previously platted, no land division assessments
apply. Additionally, sidewalks do not exist and are not planned for the S. Pine
Street frontage of the survey area.
E. The applicant should contact the City Clerk’s Office regarding any outstanding
taxes, special assessments, or other fees which must be paid.
IV. PLAN COMMISSION ACTION – 8 SEPTEMBER 2009
The Plan Commission unanimously agreed to forward Final CSM 09005-C to the
City Council with a favorable recommendation.
