Have a property, siingle owner, made up of 8 contiguous lots, built a house on it in 1946. House was allowed to be built over multiple lot lines; Ok to do so or should the lots have been tied together?
This is really a local zoning question rather than a building code question.
This is exactly what our zoning department does. We refer to it as binding the lots together as it gets recorded in the courthouse and cannot be divided up and sold unless the city agrees and that would only happen if the structures have been removedHave them perform a parcel consolidation. Becomes one legal parcel, however an additional survey is not required. Will also simplify the owners taxes, as he will only receive one bill.
Does not make sense then again common sense is not common when it comes to government.Planning seems to believe that they cannot approve the lot line realignments until the existing building is removed.
