6. That the Subject Property is guided as Rural Developing on the City's Future Land Use <br />Map as are all of the surrounding parcels with the exception of the Rum River Hills Golf <br />Course, which is guided as Park. <br />7. That the Subject Property is abutted by three (3) public roads, Highway 47 to the west, <br />169'h Avenue to the south, and Neon Street to the east. <br />8. That portions of the Subject Property on the three sides abutting public roads are <br />encumbered with permanent road easements, and additional right-of-way required along <br />Highway 47 is further reducing the area of both lots. <br />9. That the Permittee has also applied for a Minor Plat to facilitate a lot split to create one (1) <br />new, buildable lot. <br />10. That the minimum required lot size in the R-1 Residential (Rural Developing) District is <br />2.5 acres. <br />11. That the proposed Minor Subdivision would result in lot sizes of 1.65 acres (includes the <br />existing home) and 1.53 acres (new, buildable lot). <br />12. That parcels between 1.5 acres and 2.49 acres are allowed up to 2,400 square feet of <br />detached accessory building space. <br />13. That there are three (3) detached accessory buildings on the Subject Property currently, <br />totaling 2,280 square feet in size, which would be on the proposed Lot 1, along with the <br />existing home. <br />14. That both lots will be accessed from Neon Street. <br />15. That City Code Section 117-111 (R-1 Residential District) states that lots shall have a <br />minimum frontage of 200 feet along a road. <br />16. That both resulting lots would have more than the required 200 feet of frontage along Neon <br />Street. <br />17. That the Planning Commission reviewed a concept of the proposed Minor Subdivision in <br />May of 2018 and supported the proposal, finding that it was compatible with the <br />surrounding neighborhood. <br />FINDINGS OF FACT <br />1. That the reduced area of both resulting lots will not impair an adequate supply of light and <br />air to adjacent property. <br />2. That the reduced area of both resulting lots will not unreasonably increase the congestion <br />on the public street. <br />RESOLUTION #19-075 <br />Page 2 of 5 <br />
