Annexation request (100% of owners requesting annexation) - (Ordinance 2016-18) of all tract or parcel of land lying and being in land lot 519, 17th District, 2nd Section, Cobb County, Georgia for a total of 0.396 acre tract, parcel number 17051900620 located at 2495 Adams Drive, Smyrna GA
Body
ISSUE: The applicant Ronald Dickinson is requesting to annex 0.396 acres into the City of Smyrna the representative is Sean J. Murphy. Ronald Dickinson is requesting to rezone the property from R-20 to RAD-Conditional for the subdivision of the subject property into two lots per the 1950’s plat. The applicant is proposing to leave the existing home on one lot and construct a new detached single family home on the second lot
BACKGROUND: The subject property was originally platted as lot # 72 of the Belmont Subdivision in 1944. In 1950, Mr. & Mrs. Adams dedicated 10’ of property along the long side of the property to the County for the creation of Adams Drive (a public street). During that dedication and replatting, lot #72 was subdivided into two lots. The first lot 70’ by 100’ and the second lot was 70’ by 150’. These lots were recorded on the plat, but were never officially recorded with the tax office to become an official parcel of record. Since, the lots are below the minimum zoning standards of the R-20 zoning district, the property has to be rezoned to allow for the zoning proposal.
