Justification:

The applicant’s justification statement states the following:
The purpose of the division is to allow the owner to turn the rental properties

into marketable lots.

There will be no outward change in the appearance and use of the property by

allowing the additional division within the 5-year timeframe and use of the access easement.

By allowing the division it will allow the owner to move forward with estate

planning and the anticipated use of the land will preserve the public safety and welfare and will not alter the character of the neighborhood.
