SUMMARY
Vineyard Land Co. has requested the approval of a three lot certified survey map located

SUGGESTED MOTION
A motion to approve Final CSM 11009-C.
ANALYSIS
A. The site was previously platted. The survey area contains approximately 2.4 acres of
land and is zoned R1, Single and Two-Family Residence District. The site currently
contains a single-family residence and two detached accessory buildings. The
configurations of the lots proposed are adequate in size and shape to satisfy the
zoning and subdivision ordinance requirements.
B. The future land use designation for this site is Single Family Residential. The zoning
of this site is consistent with this designation.
C. The survey complies with the requirements of the City’s Subdivision and Zoning
Ordinance.

easements as requested by the utility companies having rights to serve the area.
E. The site has existing sidewalks on E. Milwaukee Street.
F. A drainage easement currently exists on the southern part of Lots 1,2 and 3 which is
adjacent to the public greenbelt and a corresponding not indicating the existence of
the public greenbelt has been added to the survey.
G. This site was previously platted and therefore, no new special assessments need to
be collected for the CSM.
H. The applicant should contact the City Clerk’s Office regarding any outstanding taxes,
special assessments, or other fees which must be paid.
PLAN COMMISSION ACTION – September 6, 2011
