FROM: PLANNING AND ZONING COMMITTEE REFERENCE: R#1/76

SUBJECT: Application to rezone a 10-acre parcel at Cedar Drive and
Lincoln Avenue to RS-1 from RS~2 for subdivision,

LEGAL Lot 116, NE, Section 6, Township 40, Plan 28650.
DESCRIPTION: °

BACKGROUND: Council will recall early in 1975, an application to rezone
the subject land was presented to Council for consideration

and was subsequently rejected.

The developer has recently re-applied for rezoning of the
same land for subdivision.

In consultation with the Engineering Dept., it was indicated
that servicing the site would not be difficult.

A proposed subdivision pian submitted by the developer is
attached for your consideration.

Some of lots shown on the subdivision plan have a width below
60 feet. This width reduction is supported by the Planning
and Zoning Committee. It is felt that deeper lots can be
created which, in the opinion of the Committee are more

- desirable.

Please note that, except for a 20-foot strip, the road

allowance to the west of Cedar Ditch is included in the
development site. Council will recall back in 1972, a 3-way

land exchange took place, involving the City, Mr. Spani of
Meridian Developments and School Board. An agreement was made
between the City and Mr. Spani as one of the conditions of the
exchange, that the City would abandon that portion of the road
allowance for a sum of $1.00. The transfer of land to

Mr. Spani, however, has never been completed. This is the reason
the land is still shown on the legal plan as a road allowance.
