The intent of the Urban Reserve District is to provide for the most efficient utilization of <br />land once municipal sewer and water becomes available. Therefore, this plat wilt be <br />reviewed with that in trend, particular}>, given the prqiect schedule for these services. <br /> <br />The developer is apprehensive that it will be too costly to extend sewer and water to this <br />peninsula of high ground to sem, e a limited number of lots and therefore render the project <br />economically unfeasible. Therefore, to ensure that he will be able to recoup some of his <br />investment by marketing 2 lots from this property, he wants to create the rural lots before <br />the property comes into the MUSA and he loses that capabilir'5.'. <br /> <br />City Staff is of the opinion tha~ the cost of sewer and water to this plat will not be <br />unreasonable and recommends that the developer redesign the plat to urban standards and <br />seek preliminary plat approval of same. It is anticipated that 20 to 30 urban lots might be <br />possible from the highland available. Subsequent to preliminary plat approval, the <br />developer could final plat only the first two lots off of the 151st extension and the <br />remainder of the property could be planed as outlots for final plat approval when sewer and <br />water is available. These two outtots could be retained by the developer or sold to the <br />buyers of the two platted lots for speculation. <br /> <br />If the extension of ciD' sewer and water is too costly for the number of lots achieved, the <br />developer or property owner is not obligated to final plat the two our. lots. Then the two lots <br />that are final platted could be developed with on-site septic systems because the outlots that <br />are not to be developed with ciD, sewer and water will provide the necessary area densiB,. <br /> <br />If the extension of eiB' sewer and water to the site is eoo.nomically viable for the numar of <br />lots achieved, the developer or property owner simply needs to apply for final plat approval <br />of the outiots based on the approved preliminary, plat. <br /> <br />Park Dedication: The sketch plan will be reviewed by the Park and Recreation Commission <br />6:00 p.m. on August 1 l, 1994 for park dedication requirements. <br /> <br />The Planning and Zoning Commission will be meeting at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, August 11, <br />!99zl, to consider your request for sketch plan review of Fox Knoll.
