Schelkoph: <br /> <br />We are in receipt of your sketch plan for Sandy Acres consisting of t~vo (2) sheets prepared by <br />Caine & Associates Land Surveyors, dated 9/23/02. We offer the following comments: <br /> <br />General: The proposed minor subdivision is a repiat of the Schelkol~h homestead that will <br />create two lots. Proposed Lot 1 is approximately 2.11 acres, and Proposed Lot 2 is approximately <br />2.60 acres. The main homestead is on proposed Lot 2 and will remain after subdivision. <br /> <br />Zoning:' The property is zoned t/.-1 Residential and is located in the Central Rural g, eserve Area. <br /> <br />Lot Sizes and Density: The current minimum lot size in the R-1 Central Rural ReserVe Area is <br />10 acres and minimum density is 4 units per 40 acres. The Board of Adjustment granted the <br />applicant a variance to both requirements at ils August 29, 2002 meeting. - <br /> <br />Lot Dimensions: Both proposed'tomB contain more than 200 feet of fi-ontage on a public road. A <br />resubdivision plan has been submitted showing a potential lot configm-afion that meets current <br />city standards, should' sewer and water be extended to the site at some point in the future. <br /> <br />Wetlands: A substantial portion of the property is wetland. Wetlands' Mil need to be delineated <br />on the final plat and encumbered with a drainage and utility easement. . <br /> <br />Drainage: A drainage and grading plan will not be required since no substantial '~ading is <br />anticipated to accommodate one additional residence on Lot I.. I--IoweVer, the property owner <br />must take responsibility for ensuring proper drainage away fi-om the structure. <br /> <br />Access to Lots: Both lots are proposed to gain access, fi-om 153ta Avenue NW at Ramsey Blvd. <br />The proposal will require review fi-om Anoka County. Smf-~" has not received comments from the <br />Counw on the sketch plan to date but is anticipating the County will require dedication of access <br />on Ramsey Blvd. to prohibit futUre accesses. <br /> <br />Utilities: All lots will be served by on-site_sewer and water. Lot 1 is comprised largely of <br />Hubbard coarse sands and sufficient areas of th/s- soil will allow for an original and replacement <br />soil absorption field. Lot 2 [xas been investigated by Art Donn, licensed septic designer. His <br /> <br />4~ <br /> <br /> <br />
