CASE # <br /> <br /> REQUEST TO REZONE CERTAIN PROPERTIES <br />FROM R-1 RURAL RESIDENTIAL TO R-1 URBAN RESIDENTIAL; <br />CASE OF DAVE AND BETTY PEHLKE <br /> By: Principal Planner Patrick Trudgeon <br /> <br />Background: <br /> <br />David and Betty Pehlke are requesting to plat four metes and bounds parcels into two single- <br />family urban residential lots, and an existing homestead served with private well and septic <br />system. The properties are within the MUSA, but are currently zoned R1 Rural Residential. In <br />order to plat urban lots, the property must be zoned R1 Urban Residential. <br /> <br />Notification: <br /> <br />State statute requires notification of the public hearing to owners of property within 350 feet of <br />the subject property. <br /> <br />Observations: <br /> <br />The subject properties are approximately 2.53 acres in size. The Comprehensive Plan amendment <br />initiated by Ramsey in 1993 and approved by Metro Council in 1995 placed the subject property <br />in the Metropolitan Urban Service Area (MUSA) for residential development with urban services. <br />The adjacent parcels to the north, east, west, and south are also in the MUSA. The property is <br />surrounded by a mixture of unsewered lots and sewered lots created-when municipal services <br />were extended along 150th Lane. <br /> <br />The current Comprehensive Plan targets this area for residential development with urban services. <br />The Applicant has provided a sketch plan documenting their intent to develop the property into <br />two single-family urban lots (The existing homestead will also be part of the plat). Approval of <br />the rezoning would be based on the Comprehensive Plan and the Applicant's intent to develop the <br />property with single family residential lots. The proposed sketch plan of Pehlke Estates meets <br />the current regulations for the R-1 Urban Residential District. <br /> <br />The following items are enclosed for your information: <br /> <br />· Site location map <br />· Proposed subdivision <br />· Proposed Findings of Fact <br /> <br />Recommendation: <br /> <br />Once a comprehensive plan has been adopted or amended, cities must conform their land use <br />regulations in accordance with the plan. The property has been in the MUSA since 1995 and City <br /> <br /> <br />
