CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL
PRIOR TO THE RECORDING OF THE LOT LINE ADJUSTMENT, THE FOLLOWING
CONDITIONS SHALL BE SATISFIED: UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED, THE STAFF CONTACT,
. SHALL BE DORIS MICHAEL IN THE PLANNING DIVISION AT 503-639-4171.
1, Prior to recording, a Lot Lino Adjustment survey map and legal descriptions showing
the existing and proposed lot lines shall be reviewed and approved by the Engineering
Department. The survey map shall include all access and utility easements.
THIS APPROVAL SHALL BE VALID FOR 18 MONTHS
FROM THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF THIS DECISION.
SECTION 111. BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Site Information:
Then; residential lots were created as part of the Sullivan Partition (MLP 9-0012). The
partition was only recently recorded so that the lots still appear as one tax lot on the
Washington County Tax Map. The Lot Line Adjustment request involves Parcel 1 and
Parcel 2 of the Sullivan Partition. Parcel 1 contains an existing single-family dwelling.
Proposal Description:
The proposed Lot Line Adjustment would relocate the common property fine between
Parcel I and Parcel 2,. This adjustment would decrease Lot 1 from 22,097 square feet to
14,404 square feet and increase the size of Lot 2 from 10,292 square feet to 17,985
square feet.
SECTION IV. APPLICABLE REVIEW CRITERIA AND FINDINGS
COMPLIANCE WITH COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT CODE SECTIONS:
LOT LINE ADJUSTMENT - APPROVAL STANDARDS: Section 18.410.040 contains the
following standards for approval of a Lot Line Adjustment request:
Section 18.410.040 - Approval Criteria states that the Director shall approve or deny
a request for a lot line adjustment in writing based on findings that the following
criteria are satisfied:
An additional parcel is not created by the lot line adjustment, and the existing parcel
reduced in size by the adjustments is not reduced below the minimum lot size
established by the zoning district;
No new lots will be created as part of this adjustment; two (2) lots exist and two (2) lots will
remain after the proposed adjustment. Tigard Community Development Code Table
18.510.2 indicates that the underlying zoning is R-7 has a 5,000 square foot minimum lot
size. The lots (22,097 and 10,292 square feet respectively) exceed the minimum lot size
and will continue to exceed it (14,404 and 17,985 square feet respectively) after the
proposed Lot Line Adjustment. Therefore, this standard is satisfied.
NOTICE OF TYPE I DECISION MIS 1999-00010 - S1 VX)RTH LOT LINE ADJUSTMENT PAGE 2 OF4
By reducing the lot size, the lot or structures(s) on the lot will not be in violation of
the site development or zoning district regulations for that district;
The proposed Lot Line Adjustment would reduce the size of Parcel 1 and increase the size
of Parcel 2. This standard, therefore, applies only to Parcel 1. The Table below
summarizes the dimensional standards of the R-7 zone relative to the proposal:

[1] Single-family atl;rched residential units permitted at one dwelling per lot with no more that five attached units in one grouping.
[2] Lot coverage includes all buildings and impervious surfaces.
The data above indicates that all applicable dimensional standards will be met. The
setback standards do not apply to Parcel 2, as no building exists or is proposed at this
time.
The resulting parcels are in conformity with the dimensional standards of the zoning
district, including:
+ The minimum width of the building envelope area shall meet the lot requirement
of the applicable zoning district;
+ The lot area shall be as required by the applicable zoning district. In the case of
a flag lot, the access way may not be included in the lot area calculation;
+ Each lot created through the partition process shall front a public right-of-way by
at least 15 feet or have a legally recorded minimum 15-foot wide access
easement; and
+ Setbacks shall be as required by the applicable zoning district.
The table above indicates that all dimensional standards of the R-7 zone are met. Parcel 1
has direct access to SW Juliet Terrace. Parcel 2 will now have direct access to SW Juliet
Terrace where before it had access along a 20-foot access and utilities easement.
Therefore, this criterion is met.
NOTICE OF TYPE I DECISION MIS 1999-00010 - SIGwORTH LOT LINE ADJUSTMENT PAGE '3 OF4
With regard to flag lots:
When the partitioned lot is a flag lot, the developer may determine the location of
the front alyd, provided that no side yard is less than 10 feet. Structures shall
generally be located so as to maximize separation from existing structures.
A screen shall be provided along the property line of a lot of record where the
paved drive in an access way is located within ten feet of an abutting lot in
accordance with Section 18.745.040. Screening may also be required to maintain
privacy for abutting lots and to provide usable outdoor recreation areas for
proposed development.
Neither lot will be a flag lot; therefore, this, standard does not apply.
The fire district may require the installation of a fire hydrant where the length of an
access way would have a detrimental effect on fire-fighting capabilities.
The fire district approved the previous access for these lots and since Parcel 2 will now
have direct access to SW Juliet Terrace, this standard does not apply.
Where a common drive is to be provided to serve more than one lot, a reciprocal
easement which will ensure access and maintenance rights shall be recorded with
the approved partition map.
Both lots have individual access to SW Juliet Terrace. Therefore, this standard is met.
Any access way shall comply with the standards set forth in Chapter 18.705:
Access, Egress, and Circulation.
Both lots will now have direct access to SW Juliet Terrace; therefore, this standard does not
apply.
