Memo to Mayor and City Council/AS 97-8 January 20, 1998 Page 2 Dimensional requirements If the applicant wished to develop this property to its full potential, because of the provision of 4 lots per 40 acres with a minimum lots size of 2.5 acres, it might be possible to subdivide it into 5 lots. However, at this time the applicant is proposing to subdivide the property into 2 lots. Future subdivision will be limited to 4 lots, for a total of 5. Both of the lots comply with the dimensional requirements of the district. The proposed lot meets the 2.5 acre minimum lot size requirement and the 160 foot lot width requirement. However, the setback between the proposed rear property line and the existing metal shed is 30 feet; the required setback is 50 feet. Therefore, the rear lot line will have to be adjusted, and an additional 20 feet is needed between the metal shed and the rear property line. Right-of-way and easements The applicant is proposing a 50 foot half right-of-way for both parcels along County Road 33. Drainage and utility easements are being provided along the property lines on the 3.4 acre parcel. Driveways The 3.4 acre parcel is serviced by an existing driveway. Access to the larger parcel will require a permit from Sherburne County. Park and Recreation Commission Recommendation The Park and Recreation Commission has recommended a cash dedication in lieu of land to satisfy the park dedication requirements for the one new lot being created. Recommendation It is recommended that the City Council approve the request by Rick Fredericksen for an administrative subdivision to subdivide 57 acres into two lots with the following conditions: A GRANT OF EASEMENT BE PREPARED AND EXECUTED GRANTING A 50 FOOT HALF RIGHT-OF-WAY ALONG COUNTY ROAD 33. THE $0 FOOT HALF RIGHT-OF-WAY SHALL APPLY TO BOTH PARCELS. s:\planning\scott\as97-8.doc
