Title
Variation request to allow the proposed Schall Subdivision final plat and subdivision performance guarantees to be recorded one year after Final Plat approval in order to allow the applicant more time to obtain the performance assurances from the lending institution.
Staff Summary
· The proposed 2-lot (80,000 square foot lot size, Estate zoned) conventional detached house residential subdivision is located on approximately 4.5 acres along east side of Chevy Chase Road, approximately ¼ mile east of Gilmer Road in Fremont Township.
· The applicant requests a variation from Article 10, Section 10.7.6.8.b of the UDO to allow a one-year extension of an approved Final Plat of Subdivision and performance assurances to be recorded with the Lake County Recorder of Deeds.
