1. The subject properties are within the Salem Urban Growth <br />Boundary (UGB) and are designated Single Family Residential <br />in the Salem Area Comprehensive Plan. The primary intent of <br />this designation and the corresponding RA (RESIDENTIAL <br />AGRICULTURAL) zone is to provide for the development of <br />single family dwellings, and prevent division and develop- <br />ment that would make annexation and urban development more <br />difficult. <br />2. The properties are located on the west side of Hollywood <br />Drive approximately 2,000 feet south of its intersection <br />with Silverton Road. Both parcels contain 1 dwelling with <br />several accessory structures. <br />3. Surrounding uses consist of single family dwellings on lands <br />zoned RS (SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL) to the east. To the <br />north and south on lands zoned RA (RESIDENTIAL AGRICULTURAL) <br />large urban residential lots dominate. To the west on land <br />zoned RM (MULTI FAMILY RESIDENTIAL) is the site of a <br />proposed multi -family development. <br />4. The Soil Conservation Service has identified predominantly <br />Class II and IV soils on the subject properties. <br />5. All commenting agencies stated no objection to the proposal. <br />6. The applicants propose to adjust the lot lines on a 0.22 <br />acre parcel (Parcel #1) and a 2.17 acre parcel (Parcel #2) <br />to create a .30 acre parcel (Parcel #1) and a 2.09 acre <br />parcel (Parcel #2). <br />7. The lot line adjustment is intended to expand Parcel #1 to <br />provide a 10 foot setback on the north property line from an <br />existing covered patio currently on the property line. The <br />applicants also state that the property line change will <br />include, on Parcel #1, landscaped areas associated with the <br />dwelling on Parcel #1. <br />Each of the proposed parcels will contain a dwelling and its <br />associated support services on its respective parcel. No <br />new dwelling sites or parcels will be created. Both parcels <br />will retain access onto a public road, and both proposed <br />parcels are consistent with the existing parcels and the <br />character of the area. Approval of this lot line adjustment <br />will not prevent or hinder future urban density development <br />of these parcels. Parcel #1 will be expanded to provide <br />enough area for a future homesite. Based on the above, <br />staff finds that the lot line adjustment meets the purpose <br />d in <br />t t f the RA zone and the Subdivision and Partition - <br />Q Or <br />Craig - <br />Luedeman Date <br />Director -Planning Division <br />De nt of Environmental Servicespa ie <br />Russell Nd'�bon, Chief nner Date <br />STAFF: Anderson/tra <br />
