Memo to the Planning Commission/P 00-1 <br /> June 22,2000 <br /> Page 2 <br /> not participating at this time is the owner of Atlas Pet Foods. He is not in a position <br /> • financially to participate and sees no benefit to him at this time. <br /> Analysis <br /> Existing Conditions <br /> The area to be platted includes seven buildings and vacant land. The vacant land <br /> totals approximately 50% of the area to be platted. <br /> Proposed Plat Configuration <br /> The Ultimate Plan consists of 17 lots ranging from one acre (minimum lot area) to 2.58 <br /> acres in size (Deano's). Deano's desires to expand, so they are acquiring <br /> approximately one acre from Mr. Kruse and that is reflected in the size of Lot 1, Block 2, <br /> K & L Addition. Also included in the Ultimate Plan is right of way dedicated for Vance <br /> Street/174th Avenue. Additional right of way will be needed from Atlas Pet Food to <br /> complete this connection in the future. It is unknown at this time when that might occur. <br /> Phase 1 consists of nine lots and approximately 600 feet of Vance Street right of way. <br /> All of the proposed lots meet, on paper, the minimum lot area of one acre, with 100 feet <br /> of lot width. Upon closer examination, however, some of the lots have less than an <br /> acre of buildable area due to slope constraints or easement encroachments. These <br /> lots include Lot 1 and 4, Block 1. It is possible that in the future some lots will be <br /> combined. <br /> All of the vacant lots will meet the setback requirements. However, due to the location <br /> of existing buildings on existing unplatted lots, not all buildings meet the setback <br /> requirements. Wherever possible, however, the setbacks for existing buildings are met. <br /> Access <br /> Vance Street and 173rd Avenue will provide access to the new lots. Existing buildings <br /> like Bridgeman's and Deano's will continue to have their current access points. Vance <br /> Street will end in a cul-de-sac complying with the City requirements. <br /> Grading and Drainage <br /> The City Engineer has addressed these issues in his memo (attached). Phase 1 <br /> provides adequate ponding, however, the Ultimate Plan needs additional work to <br /> properly address the grading and drainage requirements of the City. A common <br /> drainage pond is proposed that would service all lots. Drainage calculations are also <br /> required. <br /> Utilities <br /> The City Engineer addresses utilities in his memo. Utilities are proposed to be <br /> extended as part of this development. <br /> • <br />
