Staff approval of updated plans satisfying all comments in the staff comment letter dated March 12, 2018. Background/Discussion Royal Oaks Realty is proposing to plat approximately 21 acres into 40 single-family lots in the R-1c zoning district. The site is largely undeveloped and has been used for agriculture and one single-family home. The site is being developed in accordance with the zoning district performance standards and all parcels are at least 80 feet wide at the front setback line. Comprehensive Plan The Comprehensive Plan guides this area for urban residential uses where homes will be connected to city services. The proposal meets all requirements of the plan. Site Plan The plat includes 40 new single-family lots, all of which have access to new public streets constructed as part of the development. Most of the lots are within the Shoreland Management zone, which limit the maximum impervious lot coverage to 25%. Additionally, the northern most lots abutting the Elk River are required to follow the general development standards for sewered lots along the lake (Sec. 30-2021) which requires a minimum lot size of 15,000 square feet. The development has two street connections to surrounding streets. One is to the south from 185th Ave., the frontage road along Highway 10, and the second is 186th Lane which connects to the new subdivision with the first addition of Riverplace. A future connection to the east is also stubbed in and will connect to 186th Ave. in the future. The connection to 185th Ave. also includes a right-turn lane. The proposal includes two outlots for stormwater management, which will be deeded to the city. The city has also noted the need for sidewalks on the west side of the north-south street and the south side of th 186 Lane, which will connect with existing trails in the area.
