Chapman 365 East ~ellogg Blvd. S[.Paul, MN 55101 Re: Final Plm Review; Rivenwick (aka Pave 2nd Addition) De~ ~. Bl~m: i I I I We are in .receipt of your proposed final plat for Rivenwick consisting of three (3) shects~draWn by Hakanson Anderson Associ,'ttes. Inc. printed June 12, 1992. We offer the following comments: Geheral: The entirety of Rivenwick is approximately 107 acres in size. The approved preliminary plat proposed to subdivide the land into 94 single farhity residential late and approximately 40 acres of commercial r de'Celopment. The developer has requested final plat approval for what is proposed to be Phase 1 of the development. It is our understanding that two phases are proposed for the development of the residential portion of this plat. Phase I consists of 51 single family lots. The developer should be ;required to provide the City with the proposed phasing plan for RiVenwick. Zqhin-'. 6. The property proposed to be developed in Phase 1 is zoned R-1 Urban Residential for which single family residential lots is a permitted use. The balance of the property in Rivenwick is zoned for single famih, residential units and commercial development adjacent to ~wy. #10. Ho~,ever, even though the plan for the property is a combination of cor)'~mercial and residential uses, those uses did not follow the zonin,, boundaries as established on the City's zoning map. Tile City conducted a pul~lic hearing tomodifv the zoni'n~_ boundaries in 1991. The legal descriptions used were based on the preliminary plat. Now that the property will be developed in phases and the plat has gained an additional 4 acres from the Count)',', the legal descriptions will change from those used last year and it is necessary to conduct another public hearing using the correct legals based on the proposed final plat. The Zoning Administrator v/il,l schedule a rezoning public hearing for the September meeting of the plartning and Zoning Commission. lt.,al Dimen.sion..s and Areas; Neariv tile entire plat is within tile Critical Ri,,;er Overtav District. All of the residential lots proposed in Phase 1 arc coiisidered non-riparian and are to contain a minimum area of 12,15(I squ. are feet.
