. has recently gone through an ordinance amendment exempting this property from the subdivision moratorium. DIMENSIONAL REGULATIONS The property is zoned RIa which requires a minimum lot size of 2Y2 acres with 160 feet of frontage. Mr. Jacobson is proposing to create a 4.7 acre parcel - Parcel A, a 2.8 acre parcel - Parcel B" and a 2.5 acre parcel - Parcel C. There is an existing home on Parcel A which meets all setback requirements. Each lot will meet or exceed the minimum lot requirements in terms of lot size and width in the RIa zoning district. All parcels will have access to I98th Avenue. NATURAL FEATURES . There is an existing wetland located near the front of Parcel A and B. The wetland is protected by a large drainage and utility easement around the entire wetland. There appears to be ample room for a driveway to be constructed through the easement without the need to fill any wetlands. If this proposal is approved, a culvert will be required under the driveways to keep the existing drainage patterns functioning correctly. The drainage and utility easement encompasses not only wetland area, but also upland area surrounding the pond. A home cannot be constructed within the drainage and utility easement. Therefore, a home on Parcel B will have to be set back a considerable distance from the front property line. The rear of Parcel B is also heavily wooded. Therefore, it this subdivision is approved, staff recommends that if a home is constructed within the wooded area, a tree protection plan be incorporated as part of the building permit application. PARK DEDICATION With the creation of a new parcel, park dedication in the amount of $450 per lot, for a total of $900 will be a condition of approval. STORM WATER IMPACT FEE In order to remain consistent with past administrative subdivision requests, a storm water impact fee of $60 for parcels without city services should be a condition of approval. . s:council:jacobsn2
