The minimum width of the <br /> minor portion shall be twenty (20) feet. <br /> The computations for complying with the Zoning Code <br /> minimum lot size shall not include the minor portion of a <br /> panhandle lot. <br /> The short subdivision containing a panhandle lot shall <br /> contain the maximum of two (2) lots. The second lot of such <br /> a short plat shall be in full conformance with the Zoning <br /> Code including minimum frontage. No short plat containing <br /> a panhandle lot shall be permitted where the ownership is <br /> common with a contiguous property. <br /> The City Engineer shall have responsibility for the review <br /> and approval, or disapproval, of subdivisions. <br /> Sect. 200 Board of Adjustment - Easement Access <br /> Applicants seeking approval of short subdivisions containing <br /> proposed lots unable to meet the frontage requirements of the <br /> Zoning Code, or unable to comply with variations allowed under <br /> Section 190 above, because of physical features or other hardship <br /> circumstances (non-economic) beyond the control of the applicant/ <br /> owners may appeal to the Board of Adjustment for access to rear <br /> lots by easement. The easement shall be irrevocable and shall <br /> provide for utility services together with access. <br /> The Board of Adjustment shall mean the Board of Adjustment <br /> as established in E.M.C. 19.70.010. <br /> The jurisdiction of the Board of Adjustment shall be extended <br /> so that in specific cases of proposed short subdivisions as al- <br /> lowed herein, the Board may authorize access easements in deviation <br /> of the Zoning Code frontage requirements when any such variation <br /> is not contrary to the public interest and where, owing to special <br /> conditions pertaining to a specific piece of property, the literal <br /> enforcement of the provisions or requirements of this title would <br /> cause undue and unnecessary hardship. No such variation shall be <br /> authorized unless the Board has established that all the following <br /> facts and conditions exist: <br /> -6- <br />
