Case #5: Request for Preliminary Plat Approval of Ramsey Meadows; Case of Gilbert Menkveld Zoning Administrator Frolik stated that Gilbert Menkveld had submitted a subdivision application for Ramsey Meadbws. The plat consisted of 29.5 acres proposed to be subdivided into 33 single family urban residential lots. All lots proposed in the plat meet the minimum width and area requirementa with a couple of exceptions. Some of the lots in this plat are impacted by wetlands and it is desirable in such a case to maintain the minimum required area (10,800 square feet) at an elevation abO~,e '.the ordinary high water. She stated that City Staff is recommending that the developer st~bBait~grading plans showing the proposed lowest floor elevations of all proposed structures an~l!soil borings for all lots in the plat. Ms. Frolik stated that the preliminary plat has been forwar~ toiDNR for review. In response to DNR's letter dated May 5, 1992, the developer is proposing i~ reduce the number of lots from 31 to 29 in order to avoid filling wetlands to create building pad$. She added that with regard to 150th, DNR is opposed to this roadway crossing the wetland as a l~iroggh street. City Staff is of the opinion that constructing 150th as a through street is desirable and a minimal portion of the wetland would be impacted by the construction. The developer hae made a decision to pursue acquisition of the necessary permits from DNR to construct 150th as a through street, which will include mitigation of wetland loss.
