Body
DATE(S) OF PRIOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION OF THIS ISSUE: 1/13/25
EXPLANATION AND SUMMARY:
The applicant, Sekas Homes, is the owner of six adjacent lots that, together, are known as 130 Wilmar Place NW and are comprised of two tax parcels (0384 03 0061 and 0384 03 0063). The applicant seeks to convert these six lots into two equally sized buildable lots of 9,450 square feet each. This goal would be achieved were the Town Council to approve the following actions:

3. Consolidation of the adjusted lot 64 with lots 65, and part of 66 (0384 03 0063)

and the newly formed lots would retain that same zoning.
In 2024, Sekas Homes submitted an application for two consolidations from those six lots that would have reached a different result. In that application, the result would have been one lot of 11,900 square feet and the second of 7,000 square feet. The Planning Commission reviewed that application and recommended against approval but supported the idea of two homes being built. On January 13, 2025, the applicant came to the Town Council meeting and requested that the application be deferred until January 27th, to provide time for the applicant to work with staff on an alternative proposal that would be more in keeping with the Planning Commission's comments. Soon after January 13th, the applicant withdrew the original application and submitted this new application.
