The plat consists of approximately 22 acres proposed to be platted into 40 single family urban residential lots and one 8.75 acre outlet reserved for furore commercial development. The following items are enclosed for your information: a) b) c) d) e) f) g) Site location map Preliminary plat and drainage plan dated January 19, 1996 Planning Commi.qsion public hearing minutes dated December 5, 1995 Letter from Mn/DOT dated January 4, 1996 Letter dated January 25, 1996 from City Engineer to residents impacted by the proposed extension of municipal services Letter from A1 Kempf dated January 29, 1996 City Staff review letter dated January 30, 1996 Notification: State statute requires notification of the public hearing to property owners within 350 feet of the subject property. Property owners within 500 feet of the subject property were notified of the December 5 public hearing. Subsequent to the public hearing, a separate letter from the City Engineer was sent to residents impacted by the extension of municipal services to the plat. The City Engineer also has met with three of the neighbors to the south who will be impacted by the extension of sewer and water service to the subdivision. Observations: A majority of the property is zoned B-1 Business except for a small portion along the south plat boundary which is zoned R-1 Urban Residential. The developer has made proper application to rezone some of the property to R- 1 Urban Residential. All lots meet the minimum area requirements and minimum width requirements are met either at the street frontage or building setback line. The plat w/il receive access from 153rd Avenue N.W. and all lots will receive access from interior streets. The plat provides for the platting of 152nd Avenue N.W. to the west boundary to provide future .access to City-owned property. The City is requesting an additional 27 feet of right-of-way along T.H. g47; the preliminary plat proposes to dedicate 17 feet. The developer has requested that if there is to be a transportation impact fee, that the value of the additional 10 feet of right-of-way be credited twoards any transportation impact fee due. The drainage plan collects storm runoff generated within the plat and conveys it southward along the west side of T.H. #47 and discharges it into Wetland #658 located south of 149th Lane. An outlet for this wetland and Wetland #657 are proposed for construction in 1996. Only ten backyards south of 152nd Avenue and west of Germanium Street will runoff the plat site, however, the volume of that runoff will be a decrease from the existing conditions due to a reduction in the drainage area.
