I don't get it. The attempt to subdivide was not possible under the ordinance -- that's why he had to apply for a variance. Whether the variance had passed or not had to do with whether this qualified as a variance, not whether the minimum lot size ordinance was working. Can someone please explain how this is a victory for the minimum lot size ordinance? I keep hearing how this variance denial was somehow a “test” of the city’s minimum lot size ordinance.
