Death to Width Ratio The minimum required depth to width ratio is 3:1 in the R-L zone. (Development Title Section 9-310.3) Development Title Section 9-905.9 states the depth to width ratio of a lot in a subdivision shall conform to the particular zoning district in which the lot is situated when new lots are created by subdivision, except where physical conditions make such limitation of depth to width ratio impractical or the width of the lot is three hundred thirty (330) feet or greater. The depth to width ratio for proposed Parcel 1 is 3.1 to 1 and the depth to width ratio for Parcel 2 is 3.8 to 1. Because the houses already exist on the parcel the physical conditions appear to make such limitation of the depth to width ratio impractical. Therefore, the tentative map appears to show the proposed parcels meet this requirement. Services • For water service, the parcel is serviced by Linden County Water District. • Public wastewater service is also provided by to the parcel by Linden County Water District. • The Department of Public Works has indicated the parcel is not serviced by terminal drainage system. Development Title Section 9-1135.11(a) states subdivisions of parcels with existing buildings on each proposed new parcel are not required to meet the drainage facility requirements specified in this Chapter. Parkins The parcel has two driveways that access the existing garage which is located on the proposed Parcel 1. One driveway accesses the garage from E. Front Street and the other driveway accesses the parcel from Ione Street. If the parcel is subdivided, the garage on Parcel 1 may be used for the parking requirements for Parcel 2 pursuant to Development Title Section 9-1015.4; however, an access easement would be required between the two parcels before the recordation of the Parcel Map. Greenhouse The existing greenhouse on Parcel 1 does not appear to meet the side yard setback requirement of five (5)feet. (Development Title Section 9-310.3) It is also not within the rear one-third (1/3) of the property to qualify for the accessory structure setback of three (3) feet. (Development Title Section 9-1010.3 [d]) Next Step Should the applicant decide to submit a full application to the Community Development Department, it will be necessary to do the following: • Submit seven (7) copies of a completed Minor Subdivision application. • Submit seven (7) copies of a folded 18" x 26" tentative map and two (2) copies of a legible 8-1/2" x 11" tentative map. 2
