Ralph L. Corsetti and Jina Barcelona Corsetti and Steven Michael Bossier and Barbara Delchamps Bossier ZONING: R-1C Rural Residential District (Figure 2) FUTURE LAND USE: REQUEST: LMR Low-Medium Density Residential Subdivide Lots 6 and 7, Square A, Sauve Gardens Subdivision, Jefferson Parish, LA, into Lots 6-A and 7-A, and the dedication of private sewer servitude (Figure 3) DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED LOTS: Type Lot Number(s) Table 1: Existing and Proposed Lot Dimensions Primary Frontage Average Width (feet) Average Depth (feet) Area (sq. ft.) Existing 6 Sauve Oaks Lane 75.76 120.45 13,921.36 Existing 7 Sauve Oaks Lane 86.45 145.69 11,342.66 Proposed 6-A Sauve Oaks Lane 71.32 111.38 13,209.60 Proposed 7-A Sauve Oaks Lane 89.89 136.61 12,054.42 FINDINGS: 1. Sauve Gardens was initially platted in 1983 and created by Ordinance No. 15779 (Docket No. ES-141-83) when Lot 10A, Tract B, Colonial Farms Subdivision was subdivided into Lots 1-10 Sauve Gardens Subdivision along with the dedication of Sauve Oaks Lane. 2. Existing Lots 6 and 7 each contain single-family dwellings fronting on the cul-de-sac of Sauve Oaks Lane. Lot 6 has 56.61 ft. of frontage, an average width of 75.76 ft., and average depth of 120.45 ft. and 13,921.36 sq. ft. of area. Lot 7 has 70.90 ft. of frontage, an average width of 86.45 ft., and average depth of 145.69 ft. and an area of 11,342.65 sq. ft. (Figure 3). 3. The stated purpose of the subdivision is for the owners of Lot 6 to sell a strip of land 711.76 sq. ft. in area along the common side yard to the owners of Lot 7 for driveway widening. Revised:1/27/17

Page 2 4. The subject properties are located within the R-1C Rural Residential zoning district. The R-1C has minimum lot requirements of 12,000 sq. ft. area, 80 ft. width, and 150 ft. of depth. Lot 7 meets the lot width but not the depth and area requirements. Lot 6 meets the area but not the width and depth requirements. Due to the two lots fronting on the cul-desac, the shifting of the interior lot line west will create a greater deficiency in the lot width and depth requirements for proposed Lot 6-A; and a greater deficiency in lot depth for proposed Lot 7-A. 5. The R-1C requires side yards of 10 ft. in width. The applicant is requesting a 3-ft. waiver to provide a 7-ft. side yard setback, created by the shifting of the common property line closer to the existing dwelling on proposed Lot 6-A. 6. The UDC has established a set of review criteria for preliminary and final plats, which have been applied to the proposed subdivision (Table 2). Additional criteria for Block and Lot Standards have also been applied (Table 3). The proposed subdivision complies with the criteria except the existing single-family dwelling on proposed Lot 6-A does not meet the 10-foot side yard setback requirement and has lot deficiencies in width and depth. 7. The UDC has established a set of review criteria for subdivision waivers, which have been applied to the proposed subdivision (Table 4). The proposed subdivision complies with the criteria for subdivision waivers. 8. This application has been reviewed by the administrative departments with ICE-Building opposed because the proposed new common side property line will create insufficient side yard setback for the existing single-family dwelling building on proposed Lot 6-A. A 10- foot setback from a side property line is required and the proposed setback is 7 feet. There are no zoning or building violations associated with the petitioned property. DEPARTMENT COMMENTS: Public Works is NOT OPPOSED to this Case but has the following Stipulations: ES-01-17-PF The Department of Public Works (on 12/29/16) requires the to place the general stamp on the plan. The Traffic Engineering Division finds that the sight triangles are not an issue at this time and a TIA is not currently required. ICE - Building is OPPOSED to this Case for the following reasons: The relocated lot line between lots 6-A and 7-A creates an insufficient 7 foot side-yard setback from the existing house on lot 6-A. The zoning district R1-C requires a 10 foot side-yard setback. ICE - Site Plan is NOT OPPOSED to this Case. Eastbank Consolidated Fire is NOT OPPOSED to this Case. Parish Attorney is NOT OPPOSED to this Case but has the following Stipulations: We will defer to the other departments for comments. CONSISTENCY WITH COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The subdivision is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan because it supports: Policy 6.2.1: Support housing sites, designs and related amenities which make a positive contribution to public space and neighborhood vitality. CONCLUSIONS: An insufficient side-yard setback of 7 feet will be created on proposed Lot 6-A, which requires a 10-foot side-yard setback, but this will not have a detrimental effect on abutting residential properties. PLANNING DEPARTMENT RECOMMENDATION: The recommends Approval. PLANNING ADVISORY BOARD: The Planning Advisory Board recommends Approval (See PAB minutes). Revised: 1/27/17
