Recommendations: There appears to be some potential problem of flanking the proposed lots on the South half of the development with a double street frontage (There is a 66~ street allowance for the extension of 171st Avenue Northwest to the West of Bison Street Northwest). In addition, the proposed Cul de Sac Street at 1100+ feet exceeds the maximum length of 600' provided by City Code. The developer should consider contacting the land owner to the South of the proposed subdivision in an effort to possibly develop a larger subdivision which could utilize an develop the 171st Avenue extension West of Bison Street. In doing so, the subdivider could extend a number of North/South oriented Cul de Sacs, thereby eliminating the need for an overextended Cul de Sac and potential situation of a double street frontage. On April 4, 1989, the Ramsey Planning and Zoning Commission approved the sketch plan and recommended the subdivider proceed to preliminary platting. Staff recommends that park dedication be satisfied in cash. Staff recommends that the commission recommend preliminary plat approval, contingent upon the City Engineer's review (April 27, 1989). However, the staff strongly encourages the Westerly development of 171st Avenue Northwest and the total realignment of streets within the proposed Dellwood Hills Addition. Another format could be the provision of a Northerly easement to allow for a future possible road connecting the proposed Dellwood Hills street to County Road #63. All in all, the Westerly extension of 171st Avenue Northwest is preferred. Commission Action: Motion to approve/deny/table request for preliminary plat approval of Dellwood Hills Addition.
