-26- ordinance on December 11, 2001 and approved the 2001 Comprehensive Plan on December 18, 2001. The 2001 Comprehensive Plan expands the MUSA boundary to include the subject property. The plat area is 9.7 acres. The subdivision is proposing to plat 17 new single-family parcels and one existing homestead for a total of 18 single-family lots. Net density (exclusive of Hwy. g47 right-of-way) has been established at 1.9 units per acre. Community Development Director Frolik noted that 18 lots will receive public access from the extension of 158th Lane into the plat from River Pines 2nd Addition to the west. Currently, 158~ Lane dead er~ on the west boundary of the proposed plat and this is a public safety concern since the le this dead end is greater than 600 feet. Lithium Street N.W. would be extended from.~ki!~th to the north boundary of the plat. A cul-de-sac would extend east off of Lithium t e remainder of the lots. The existing homestead will have access to the cul-de-sac. ~i~iat ~~ forwarded to Mn/DOT for review and it is expected that they will suggest :~"'fhe two exi~"~2:'i~riveways onto T.H. #47 from the existing homestead be abandoned and~;~kht of access al~g!)i~i7~. #47 be dedicated to the State.
