The project will need to be <br />developed as a PUD and will require a rezoning and Conditional Use Permit application in <br />addition to the plat applications. <br />■ Primary and secondary septic sites required for each lot. In addition to their placement on <br />the preliminary plat and development plans, septic sites will need to be identified on all <br />future building permit applications. <br />■ City ordinances require a 45-foot wetland setback for all structures (including septic <br />systems). Staff suggests incorporating this setback as an easement on a future plat. <br />■ A wetland delineation will be required prior to submitting the application for review. <br />■ The Joplin Street connection to Ranch Road will require participation from the owner of <br />PID 75-108-3102 as it appears to include a portion of their parcel. <br />Engineering (Sherburne County) <br />• Full access spacing on this segment of County State Aid Highway (CSAH) 33 is '/Z mile per <br />the Sherburne County Long Range Transportation Plan (2019).
