<br />t' <br /> <br />J <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />4-18-94 <br /> <br />To: Elk River City Council <br />Elk River, MN 55330 <br /> <br />From: James P. Rossman <br />406 Main street <br />Elk River, MN 55330 <br /> <br />Subject: Administrative Subdivision <br />of 406 Main Street <br />Elk River, MN 55330 <br /> <br />I am requesting the Administrative Subdivision of my <br />property so that an office building can be built. The city <br />has no minimum frontage requirement for this process. The <br />lot has been surveyed so that the existing building meets <br />the 15 foot minimum setback from the new lot line. The <br />property currently has two curb cuts, one that enters each <br />of the proposed lots. The easterly lot, which I'm preparing <br />for commercial development, has a curb cut that is well over <br />the required 24'. The other curb cut which services the <br />existing residence is over 18' wide. I feel that the <br />requirements for the lot split have been met, and would <br />appreciate your approval without regard to any conditional <br />use permit. <br /> <br />The conditional use permit I have requested is an issue in <br />itself and I feel that it should be dealt with separately. <br /> <br />A condi tional use permi t has been requested under <br />cooperation with city staff. I initially proposed to the <br />city staff the placement of an office building toward the <br />rear of the easterly lot, with the parking in front. After <br />discovering that city staff would appreciate any <br />construction of an office building toward the front of the <br />lot, it became apparent that a shared drive could be <br />necessary to leave enough room for a suitable building. A <br />building could still be built towards the front of the lot <br />without a shared driveway, but it would have maximum width <br />restrictions. <br /> <br />By no means do I intend to limit the future development of <br />the new lots to only the concept of a shared driveway. I <br />don't have a finalized plan for the lot and would not want <br />to be limited to only the shared driveway concept. With <br />this in mind, if I were limited to only a shared driveway, I <br />would be limiting myself from other options I may have for <br />future construction on these lots. <br />
