Split/Divide a lot of land into two--Lynnwood/Bothell (Snoho Co)

[Bryan Doan]

Hi everyone,

I've been researching a procedure to divide a lot (a parcel) into two.  There is currently a ~2000 sqf house on the lot of .34 acres. (~14800 sqf).  The zoning code is R-9600/UGA and future land use is ULDR.  I went to the snohomish county planning & development office to ask for the possibility of division of the lot and the person who helped me said it would be possible because the lot is compliant (does meet the future land use) and there are houses across the street have been rezoned to R-7200.

Does anyone have any experience doing this previously?  If so, would you please give me some advice or guidance on how to go about this?  My plan is to turn the extra big back yard into another lot with approximately 6K-7K sqf and then build another house or duplex on it.

Thank you very much for your help.
