Public Comments
Martina John presented information about a potential lot line adjustment. She explained that she owns a parcel and wishes to adjust the property lines to create two lots. She needs to make a small adjustment of a few feet to achieve the required 400 feet across, mentioning that a survey would provide the exact measurements. The resident noted that the property has a road for access, which is approximately 70 feet wide, and that there is a fire hydrant within 500 feet that would service both proposed lots.
The resident indicated that she would wait for the survey to be completed before requesting to be placed on the October agenda.
