residence appears to be on a well. Any existing unused wells shall be abandoned to meet the requirements of the Oregon State Board of water Resources. All other contacted agencies either failed to respond, or stated no objection to the proposal, at the time this report was written. 6. The following regulations apply when lot line adjustments and/or partitioning of land are proposed: (a) Lot Area: The minimum lot area for a single family dwelling in a subdivision approved after the effective date of the Ordinance, or a mobile home on a mobile home subdivision lot approved after the effective date of this ordinance, is 4, 000 square feet when located within the Salem/Keizer Area Urban Growth Boundary. In all other cases lots shall be a minimum of 6, 000 square feet. (See Chapter 27 for density limitations). (b) Lot dimensions, single family: Except as provided in Section 26.800 for Planned Developments, the average width of a lot shall be at least 60 feet; provided that within the Salem/Keizer Urban Growth Boundary the average width of a lot shall be at least 40 feet, and the average depth of a lot shall be at least 70 feet. (c) Lot dimensions, other uses: The average width of a lot shall be at least 40 feet, and the average depth of a lot shall be at least 80 feet, except as provided in Section 26.800 for Planned Developments. 7. As noted previously, the subject parcel is zoned RS and within the Salem Area Urban Growth Boundary. Therefore, all lots created through the partitioning process must be a minimum of 6,000 square feet. The applicant proposes three new lots of 6,000 square feet or larger. The proposal complies with the standards listed in 6 (a). 8. The average width of a lot shall be at least 40 feet, and the average depth of a lot shall be at least 70 feet. The lot configurations shown on the tentative partition plan submitted by the applicants appears to this satisfy criterion, which can be made a condition of approval. The proposal complies with the standards listed in 6 (b). 9. Paxton Way NE, was chosen as the new road name for the easement on the western portion of the property. However, Marion County Land Development Engineering & Permits is requesting that the western easement be combined with an existing easement, Tree Lane SE. If the easements are combined then a new road name is not needed. 8. Based on the above and subject to the required conditions, the proposed partitioning complies with the criteria for a partitioning in the RS zone and is, therefore, APPROVED.
