106-2-4.020 Lot-Averaged Subdivision

In the AV-3 zone, a lot's area and width standards may be reduced in a Lot-Averaged Subdivision below the standard minimum Lot Area or minimum Lot Width as specified in the applicable zone or zones found in Title 104. A Lot-Averaged Subdivision shall comply with the following: 1. The averaged area and width of all Lots to comply with zone standards. The average Lot Area and average Lot Width of all Lots within a Lot-Averaged Subdivision shall not be less than the minimum Lot Area and minimum Lot Width required by the applicable zoning district. No individual Lot created through lot averaging shall be less than fifty percent (50%) of the required minimum Lot Area or Lot Width of the zoning district, except where a Cluster Subdivision is approved pursuant to Section 106-2-1.020. A pre-existing nonconforming Lot of record that is smaller in Lot Area or Lot Width shall be excluded from the averaging calculation and may continue with the smaller dimensions provided it is not made more nonconforming. Lot averaging shall not be used to increase the number of Lots otherwise permitted by the density calculation provisions of this chapter, and shall not be combined with connectivity incentives or other design flexibility provisions to increase total subdivision yield beyond what would otherwise be permitted. 2. Lot standards. The Lot Area and Lot Width of an individual Lot located within a LotAveraged Subdivision shall be no less than shown in the following table, provided that the averaged area and width of all Lots in the subdivision maintains compliance with Subsection (a) of this section. AV-3 Zones Lot Area 20,000 square feet 3 acre density if clustered with greenbelt Lot Width 80 feet 100 feet 3. Subdivision plat table. A table shall be provided with the subdivision application and on the final subdivision plat showing the area and width of each Lot within the overall subdivision boundary, the average area and width of all Lots within the overall subdivision boundary, and the average area and width of all Lots within each zone in the subdivision boundary. If platted in phases, the “overall subdivision boundary” shall mean the exterior boundary of all phases in the approved preliminary plat. 4. Plat subtitle. Pursuant to Section 106-1-8.020, a subtitle and note referencing this provision shall be placed on the final plat.
