Request approval of final plat for Malcolm Road Subdivision located at 424 and 440 Malcolm Road NW
Body
EXPLANATION AND SUMMARY:
JR Real Estate Group, LLC has submitted a final plat for a three (3)-lot re-subdivision of two existing lots (lots 17 and 19 within the Windover Heights subdivision) in the RS-12.5 single-family detached residential zone.
The subject site consists of two lots, currently addressed as 424 Malcolm Road NW and 440 Malcolm Road NW. Both lots are zoned RS-12.5 single-family detached residential.

The planned three lots meet the required lot area and width requirements for the RS-12.5 single-family detached residential zoning district, including after dedications for right-of-way and the cemetery. The three lots also meet the maximum lot shape factor.

Further, the dedication would occur after the final plat has been recorded.
