Marius Baker Discussion (correct spelling below) Marius Bakker, 16409 Crosstown Blvd. N.W. - owns approximately 13 acres and would like to sell an area of his land to some friends so they can build a house on it. The area he would like to sell to his friends does not meet the two and a half acre requirement and he would like to get some thoughts from the Commission on the situation. The Commission recommended that Mr. Bakker get as close to two and a half acres, if not two and a hall' acres, as he can. With the amount of land that he owns, it would be hard to deal with this as a hardship and to be sympathetic to the problem of not meeting the two and a half acre requirement. It was suggested to Mr. Bakker that he talk to the adjoining landowner and maybe buy some property from him in order to get the two and a half acres. The Commission said that Mr. Bakker should try to resolve this l?roblem, come back and get a lot split request, and if he doesn't meet the two and .e.'i1alf acre require/} -J- A ment, to apply for a variance, although it was a strong recommendation of the ~ Commission that he come up with the two and a half acres. 1'-~ t/- '1 !
