, Sketch Plan Review: March '4, 2004 Page 2 of 3 A Minor Plat Parcel B, the new buildable lot, is proposed to receive public access from the westerly terminus of 174m' Avenue in Fox Pddge. Technically, this means that Parcel 13 only has 66 feet of frontage on a public road, which is a 134 foot deficiencTf. Consequently, die variance applied for is two-fold: one for the 1.6 foot deficiency on Paroel A and another for the 134. foot deficiency at 174th. It is StafFs understanding that since Parcel B is 19 acres in size and is only ¢ti~ble for one home as proposed to be platted, the developer iS requesting that he not be required to construct a public road into ~e property. (for the benefit of one lot) until such time as the property is resubdivided. If the variance is granted, Parcel A and B would be approved to be platted with street frontage deficiencies and by implication, Parcel B would also be' considered eligible for a building permit. Staff will recommend that lan=mange be inclu~ted in the development agreement that will require the developer to sign a hold-harmless agreement with- the 'citY in regards to emergency vehicle access ~o the property. Grading and Drainage: The sketch plan sh_ows several iow' l'and areas throughout the proposed plat. These wetlands must be identified by a certified wetland delineator and verified, by the Lower Rum River Water Management Organization. This must b'e completed prior to the City Council review of the final plat. No grading plan will be required for this minor subdivision. Individual lots will be responsible to ensure positive drainage for any future structures constructed. 6. Easements: The standard 10-foot drainage and utility easements (5 feet on common property lines) must be proyided around the perimeter of both lots. Also, delineated wetlands must be encumbered with drainage and utility easements. 7. Utilities: The proposed plat will be serviced bY on-site sewage treatment systems and private wells. The on-site system must be installed by a quali±ied contractor following all applicable requirements. 8, Soils. Review of t~e Anoka County Soil Survey indicates the soils on site are most likely, Zimmerman Fmc sands. These soils are clazsi~led 'as Class 1 soils in the City Code. and have no restrSctions for individual on-site sewage systems. 9. Stormwater Management: The City has established a storm water management fee that must be paid prior to release of the final plat for recording. The current rate is $375 per new lot created, Which will apply to the one new buildable lot. Trail Development Fees: There is a trail development fee of $550.00 due to the City for each new lot created. This fee must be paid pr/Or to release of the final plat for recording. Again, this fee will apply only t° the newly created buildable lot. l I. Sidewalks: Sidewalks are not required in the Rural Developing Area.
