Memo to the Mayor and City Council/P 96-6 July 15, 1996 Page 3 o There are special conditions such as existing structures which are peculiar to this property. o Literal application of the Ordinance will deprive the applicant of property rights enjoyed by other properties in the neighborhood. There are similarly sized lots across the street and directly adjacent to the south. o There are special circumstances or conditions that are not a consequence of the applicant's actions. The circumstances are a result of the City requiring an extra 17 feet for right-of way on County Road 32. o The granting of this variance will not be injurious to or adversely affect the health, safety or welfare of the residents. Preliminary Plat This three lot subdivision involves subdividing a 35 acre parcel into three lots; lot one will be 10.56 acres, lot two 2.21 acres and lot three 22.27 acres. The lots meet the dimensional regulations except for lot two which needed a variance because it is less than 2 1/2 acres. Lot I will be accessed from 217th Avenue, lot 2 will use an existing driveway on County road 32 and lot 3 will be accessed from County Road 32, which will require a permit from the Sherburne County Highway Department. Issues Setbacks Two buildings will have to be removed, a concrete block storage building and a block garage sit on the proposed property line between lots one and two. The other setback requirements are met. Wetlands There are several wetlands and drainage ditches on the property which will require easements placed over them.
