City planners will present a draft proposal Aug. 11 that is expected to loosen the rules governing construction on Alexandria's undersized residential lots — a process that has required City Council approval for more than 50 years.

Hmm. A possible compromise would be allowing by admin approval instead of Council, and changing the rules to make SOME by right. Though I think this proposal is fine.

"A substandard lot is a residential lot that falls short of the minimum size, width or street frontage its zone requires. These lots did not shrink — the rules grew around them. They were recorded before the current requirements took effect, or before later amendments, rezonings or annexations."

In reality it isn't the LOTS that are substandard. They've existed in our city for decades! The STANDARD is the problem. We've implemented layers of zoning restrictions that outpace reality and are much worse for it (excellent reporting here, as usual)
