The University Heights Planning Commission on an agenda item recommended that City Council approve consolidation of parcels 72214096, 72214097 and 72214098 at 23627 Edgerton Road, contingent on the city engineer’s review and approval that the proposed legal description closes and matches the plat.
Commissioners and the applicants discussed a confusing set of parcel numbers and partial lots that, as presented in the meeting, left two very small slivers and one larger lot that already contains an existing house. The applicants said the consolidation would attach the vacant parcel to the house parcel and permit an addition; they said they would likely relocate the driveway as part of the work.
A planning commissioner moved the recommendation that City Council approve the lot consolidation application from George Turnbull and Lauren Vogel, with the condition that the city engineer confirm the legal description is consistent with the plat. The motion was seconded. In a roll call, Mayor Brennan, Mister Eitrich, Mister Casey and Mister Rhett voted yes; the motion passed and the planning commission recommended the consolidation to City Council. The recommendation is contingent on the city engineer’s review and approval of the revised legal description.
Transcript discussion shows county surveying history and a 2016 survey were cited during the conversation. The motion paperwork referenced the three parcel numbers noted above and described the result as one consolidated parcel that would include the existing house and the adjacent vacant lot where the proposed addition would be located. The commission chair asked staff to notify the applicants if a special City Council meeting is set to consider the recommendation before the regular September meeting cycle.
Next steps: the recommendation will be forwarded to City Council for final approval; staff said they will notify the applicants if a special council meeting is scheduled to add the item.
