Memo to the Mayor and City Council/P97-3 May 19, 1997 Page 2 207th Avenue The dedication of right of way for 207tl~ Avenue would allow the construction of a new public street providing access to the three lots proposed within the plat. As typically requested, 207th Avenue will have to be constructed to the east edge of the plat where a temporary cul de sac will need to be provided allowing vehicles (i.e., school buses and snow plows) to turn around. One of the issues staff has discussed with the developer is designing 207th with the proper geometrics so it connects with County Road No. I at the appropriate alignments. The exact design of the street has not been worked out; however, in the City Engineer's review of the street plans, the proper geometrics will be required for the street construction. It may be necessary that additional easement be acquired from the adjacent property to the south to provide for the proper alignment of the proposed 207t~ Avenue. If any easements are necessary, it is recommended that these be the responsibility of the developer to obtain in order to construct the street. Lastly, this street project will also need to be approved by the county, as there will be work done within the county right of way. Overall Concept Plan The applicant has also been working on overall concept plans for the rest of the property. It is anticipated this area will be platted in the near future, requiring the extension of 207th Avenue to gain access to the 2-1/2 acre lots. When this plat is submitted, it will need to go back to the Planning Commission for review and also the City Council. Lot Sizes and Dimensions All the lots included in the plat meet the 2-1/2 acre requirement set forth in the Rla zoning district. All of the lots include sufficient space for a primary and secondary septic system, as well as the proper dimensions for a typical house pad. Park & Recreation Commission Recommendation The Park & Recreation Commission reviewed the preliminary plat and recommended the payment of cash to be made on all three lots to satisfy the park dedication requirements.
