6. In order to partition land in an RS (Single Family Residential) zone, the standards and criteria in Chapter 16.02.120 of the Marion County Code (MCC) apply: A. Lot Area. The minimum lot area for a single-family dwelling in a subdivision approved after the effective date of the ordinance codified in this title, 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 16.27 MCC for density limitations.) The proposed lots are 5,600 square feet and 8,700 square feet each. The criterion is met. B. Lot Dimensions. Except as provided in MCC 16.26.800 for planned developments, the width of a lot shall be at least 60 feet; provided, that within the Salem/Keizer urban growth boundary the width of a lot shall be at least 40 feet, and the depth of a lot shall be at least 70 feet. The proposed lot widths are 51 feet by 110 feet and 99 feet by103 feet. The criterion is met. 7. MCC 16.33.680 ACCESS STANDARDS. All lots must have a minimum 20 feet of frontage on a public right-of- way or, when an access easement is proposed to serve one or more lots in any partitioning, the location and improvement of the roadway access shall conform to the following standards which are necessary for adequate access for emergency vehicles. Evidence that the access has been improved to these standards and a driveway permit has been obtained shall be provided prior to the issuance of building permits on the parcels served by the access easement. The easement shall meet the following standards: A. Have a minimum easement width of 25 feet; B. Have a maximum grade of 12 percent; C. Be improved with a paved surface with a minimum width of 20 feet; D. Provide adequate sight-distance at intersections with public roadways; E. Be provided with a road name sign at the public roadway as identification for emergency vehicles in accordance with Chapter 11.55 MCC, Naming and Addressing Roads/Property. The applicant is not proposing the addition of an easement for access to either of the parcels. Both parcels will be serviced by Marion County public road Jade St NE and both parcels are proposed to have more than 20 feet of street frontage. The Criterion are met. 8. Based on the above findings, the request complies with the applicable criteria and is therefore APPROVED. Brandon Reich Date: November 14, 2024.
