5. The applicant is requesting a review to determine the lot legality of current day tax lot 900. . 6. Various agencies were contacted and given an opportunity to comment. All contacted agencies either failed to comment or stated no objection/concern to the proposal. 7. The applicant provided the deed history for the subject property and it is explained below: 1. On June 30, 1976, Major Partition case 76-36 was applied for which separated the subject property and tax lot 300 to the east and tax lot 600 of section 20C to the south as parcel 1. Parcel 2 of this partition is present day tax lot 700 of section 20. This partition was approved, and deeds/surveys were recorded. 2. During June 1977, tax lot 600 of section 20C was conveyed by deed, creating it lawfully and separately from tax lots 900 and 300 of section 19. Reel 85, Page 491. Marion County’s subdivision ordinance did not go into effect until September 1, 1977, and as such, this division without a land use case is deemed to be lawful. 3. On July 1, 1977 survey MCSR 26412, which shows tax lot 900 of section 19 alone, in its current configuration, as a separate parcel from tax lot 300 of section 19. The intent of this separation was to create two legal parcels. This happened before September 1, 1977, as is therefore considered a legal parcel. 4. Lastly, Partition 86-036 further separated tax lot 300 of section 19 into three total parcels. The survey recorded with this partition shows tax lots 300, 301 and 302 of section 19 as separate parcels from tax lot 900 of section 19. Tax lot 900 already became a legally established remanent parcel in 1977, but this separation makes the separation that much more clear. In summary: o Tax lot 900 of Section 19 is considered ONE LEGAL SEPERATE parcel of land for planning purposes. 8. Based on the above findings, it has been determined that there is 1 legal lot within the bounds of tax lot 900. This parcel may be bought and sold separately from other parcels and is legal for land use purposes.
