Howard R <br /> <br />, Green Qompany <br /> <br />October 16, 2003 <br />File: 822250J-0240 <br /> <br />Mr. Chris Leeseberg <br />City of Elk River <br />13065 Orono Parkway <br />EJk River, MN 55330 <br /> <br />RE: RODNEY ANDERSON ADMINISTRATIVE SUBDIVISION <br /> <br />Dear Mr. Leeseberg: <br /> <br />As you requested, we have reviewed the administrative subdivision for Rodney Anderson. It consists <br />of subdividing a parcel of land on the west side of Morton Avenue, just south of Manor Place, into two <br />parcels. Parcel B, the newly created piece, is approximately .55 acres, and Parcel A, which has the <br />existing home on it, is approximately .36 acres. As we discussed, the City ordinance requires that a <br />simple plat be prepared instead of an administrative subdivision. Because of this requirement, we <br />have not reviewed the parcel descriptions on the administrative subdivision. When a simple plat is <br />prepared for this subdivision, the required drainage and utility easements should be provided around <br />the perimeters of both Parcel A and Parcel B. <br /> <br />The existing home is on Parcel A, and the existing garage is on Parcel B. The new home site will, <br />therefore, be on Parcel B. There is no indication on the administrative subdivision how sanitary sewer <br />and water service will be provided to Parcel B. According to City records, there is no sanitary sewer <br />in Morton Avenue south of Manor Place and no water in Morton Avenue south of Angel Avenue. <br />According to City ordinance, every individual residence must have its own sewer and water services. <br />This issue needs to be resolved before final approval is granted. <br /> <br />Based on our review of the administrative subdivision, once a simple plat is prepared in lieu of the <br />administrative subdivision and the sewer and water issue is resolved, we will be prepared to <br />recommend approval of this proposed lot split. If you have any questions regarding this issue, please <br />call. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />Howard R.
