CASE #: q <br /> <br />REQUEST FOR PRELIMINARY PLAT APPROVAL OF FOX KNOLL; <br />CASE OF MARK KLECKNER, FOX DEVELOPMENT CO. <br /> By: Zoning Administrator Sylvia Frolik <br /> <br />Background: <br /> <br />Mark Kleckner of Fox Development Company is requesting preliminary plat approval of Fox <br />Knoll, a plat consisting of two 10-acre lots that will require construction of a street. Because of the <br />required street construction, the plat must be processed as a full subdivision with a public hearing <br />and preliminary plat, rather than as a minor subdivision. The following items are enclosed for <br />your review and information: <br /> <br />a) <br /> <br />c) <br /> <br />Site location map <br />Proposed preliminary plat, grading plan, and future subdivision plan <br />City Staff review letter dated September 26, 1994 <br /> <br />Observations: <br /> <br />On July 12, 1994, the City of Ramsey received an application for subdivision approval of Fox <br />Knoll which consisted of two 10 acre lots. <br /> <br />On August 11, 1994 the Planning Commission reviewed the sketch plan. At that time, City Staff <br />recommended that because the property is in the Urban Reserve District and is soon to be included <br />in the Metropolitan Urban Service Area (MUSA), the Developer be required to preliminary plat at <br />urban densities and final plat at rural densities until sewer and water is available to the property. <br />The Planning Commission recommended that the Developer be permitted to proceed to request <br />preliminary plat approval of two rural 10 acre lots. <br /> <br />On September 13, 1994, the Developer applied for preliminary plat approval of Fox Knoll which <br />consists of a 10-acre lot and a 12-acre lot. <br /> <br />On October 4, 1994, the preliminary plat was submitted to the Planning Commission for a public <br />hearing and recommendation. <br /> <br />The proposed preliminary plat meets the 10 acre minimum lot size for the Urban Reserve District. <br />The lots will also meet the minimum frontage on a public road requirement with the cul-de-sac <br />extension of 151st Avenue into the plat. The proposed cul-de-sac does not exceed the 600 foot <br />maximum length restriction. <br /> <br />The standard 10 foot drainage and utility easements have been provided around the perimeter of <br />each of the lots. The length of the County Ditch has al'so been designated as drainage and utility <br />easement. However, the developer has not complied with Staff's comments at the time of sketch <br />plan review to designate all wetlands on the property as drainage and utility easements. <br /> <br /> <br />
