SECTION 16.12.110 <br />Section 16.12.110, of the Louisville Municipal Code (LMC), establishes the review <br />procedures for a Minor Subdivision. The section states, "a subdivision application <br />meeting one or more of the following criteria shall be eligible for review as a minor <br />subdivision: <br />1. The subdivision contains solely residential use and results in not more than four <br />dwelling units; <br />2. The subdivision is a replat of an approved final subdivision plat which does not <br />increase the number of lots or increase density, and which does not result in a <br />material change in the extent, location, or type of public improvements, <br />easements, arrangement of streets open space or utilities; <br />3. The subdivision results in no more than two lots; each lot is adjacent and has <br />access to an accepted and maintained public street; the improvements required <br />by chapter 16.20 (streets and utilities) are already in existence and available to <br />serve each lot; each lot will meet the requirements of the city's zoning regulations <br />without the necessity for a variance; no variance has been granted within the <br />three previous years to any lot; and, no part of the subdivision has been <br />approved within three years prior to the date of the submission of the minor <br />subdivision plat; <br />4. The subdivision is of a lot, previously created by an approved final subdivision <br />plat, which is split or subdivided into not more than two lots and the lots created <br />by the split comply with the applicable dimensional requirements of the city's <br />zoning regulations." <br />Staff believes this request complies with the first of the above criteria, which is <br />highlighted in yellow, and is therefore eligible for a minor subdivision review. <br />COMPLIANCE WITH OLD TOWN OVERLAY ZONING <br />As stated earlier, the BOA unanimously approved the requested variances during a <br />publically noticed hearing on December 16, 2015. The table below shows how the <br />request complies with the regulations established in the Old Town Overlay District with <br />the required variances highlighted in yellow. <br />3 <br />Old Town Overlay <br />Lot 1 <br />Lot 2 <br />Lot Area <br />7,000 SF <br />8,625 SF <br />6,375 SF <br />(corner lot) <br />Lot Width <br />70' <br />57.5' <br />42.5' <br />Lot Coverage <br />Lots greater than <br />7,000 SF <br />2,450 SF or 30%, <br />whichever is <br />greater <br />1,540 SF existing <br />2,588 SF permitted <br />Lots between 6,000 <br />SF and 6,999 SF <br />2,250 SF or 35%, <br />whichever is <br />greater <br />0 SF existing <br />2,250 SF permitted <br />3 <br />
