B. The following regulations shall apply when property line adjustments and partitioning of land regulated by Chapter 16.33 MCC, Subdivision and Partition Requirements, are proposed: 1. Additional street right-of-way required by adopted county standards shall be dedicated along the street frontage of any lot 10 acres or less in area that is part of a partition or lot line adjustment. Street and drainage improvements within the dedicated right-of-way shall be deferred until otherwise required by the county, or by the city following annexation. A nonremonstrance agreement for future road or drainage improvements within the right-of-way abutting the lot may be required. Two parcels will be smaller than 10 acres and the applicant’s site plan indicates that right-of-way dedication is being considered as part of their proposal as well as a 60-foot-wide future street right-of-way. Land Development Engineering and Permits (LDEP) requires a dedication of a 50-foot R/W half-width over the Golf Club Road for all subject properties with frontage as well as a non-remonstrance agreement be signed. These conditions shall be required and are conditions of approval. The criterion has been met. 2. The location of lot lines shall not significantly reduce feasible options for the future location of urban streets or utility services, or preclude development options on the property or adjacent properties. This partition is being applied for with the purpose of creating parcels which are of a manageable size so that the City of Stayton may do a phased annexation of them. The applicant submitted a site plan showing future potential lot configurations that meet these requirements. It appears that the parcel boundaries were chosen with annexation and development in mind and will significantly aide proposed development once the land has been annexed into and is served by the City of Stayton. Based on these facts, this criterion is met. 3. When a lot occupied by a residence is reduced, or a lot is created to accommodate a new residence allowed in MCC 16.13.310(B)(3), the lot should be as small as possible and should not be larger than one acre. If a lot of one acre or less is not feasible, the lot should either contain all of the undeveloped land or be large enough that the urban development potential will be a significant incentive for the owner to develop to planned urban uses when the lot is annexed. The applicant is not proposing any new dwellings. There is one existing dwelling on the existing lot, this dwelling will be on the 4.29-acre parcel (Parcel 1 on the site plan). The applicant has provided a redevelopment plan for this parcel indicating how it could be integrated into the rest of the development , should that occur. Approval of this partition is conditioned that no homesites shall be granted to the resulting new parcels . With said conditions, the criterion is met. 4. When a new or adjusted lot located in a residential plan designation is smaller than five acres and larger than one acre, a redevelopment plan shall be required demonstrating that the lot can accommodate future subdivision development at the median density proposed in the Comprehensive Plan. The zoning administrator shall review and approve the redevelopment plan. The applicant is proposing to partition the parcel into three parcels, placing the existing dwelling on the 4.29 -acre parcel and has provided a redevelopment plan for this parcel indicating how it could be integrated into the rest of the development should that occur. The criterion is met. 5. New lots shall have no dimension less than 80 feet. The applicants are applying for a partition a 20-acre lot into three parcels consisting of 15.36, 4.29 and 0.73-acres each and an adjustment to the 80-foot lot dimension standard. The 0.73-acre parcel (Parcel 2 on the site plan) will be approximately 58 by 222 feet. This adjustment is granted, and the explanation can be found in section #7 below. Therefore, this section does not apply. 6. When a lot located in a residential plan designation and occupied by a nonresidential use is created or altered, the lot should include as little undeveloped land suitable for residential uses as possible, unless evidence is presented that undeveloped land needs to be included in the lot to accommodate allowable expansion of the subject use.
