I JAIL 1 19T5 BOOK 59 �s�� d j 4 monitor to see how it functions as we can always tighten it up later. The Board agreed. Page 5 - Commissioner Wodtke had a general question on lot size requirements in areas where we have 10 to 20 acre parcels of land, but because of Drainage District right-of-ways, road right-of-ways, etc., a ten acre piece may actually only be 9.71 acres. He noted that you can't get four 2h acre parcels out of 9.71 acres, so how can you utilize your land? Director Keating explained that they made an adjustment in RFD to allow for this by making the minimum lot size 85,000 sq. ft. instead of 100,000 sq. ft., which is what.22 acres actually figures out to, and included the limitation that it cannot exceed the one unit per 2h acre requirement. Page 5 - Chairman Lyons questioned the statement about structures "moved on a lot." He noted that you can move a house that is on a lot or you can move a house onto a lot. Attorney Brandenburg suggested that be changed to read "structures........ constructed or relocated on a lot." Page 6 - Chairman Lyons then questioned the statement in Paragraph e - "no accessory structure on a corner lot shall project into the front lot line on either street." Director Keating noted that in our current code wherever the lot abuts a street or right-of-way, that is considered a front yard and subject to those requirements. Chairman Lyons felt the front lot line puts you clear out to the street, and Director Keating noted that this actually should read "the required front yard." The Chairman next asked what we are trying to take into account on Page 6, Paragraph 7, where it says "that extend more than 3 feet above the surface ground level." Director Keating explained this is to allow other type of impervious areas such as parking lots and sidewalks, not to be considered in maximum lot coverages. 20 _ M M
