During the platting process in 2004, the Board of Adjustment granted Mr. Schaeffer a variance to the street frontage requirements so that one home may be constructed on the property without the need to extend 174th Avenue into the property. Access will continue to be from 174th Avenue N.W. and the terms of the variance will be upheld. It is noted that a drainage and utility easement is being dedicated on the final plat to protect the future right-of-way corridor for the extension of 174th Avenue N.W. to the extent of Lot 1, the buildable portion of the plat. The Cluster Ordinance requires a future urban development plan, which may be waived by Council if only one lot is being platted. Staff is recommending waiving the resubdivision plan requirement as one was provided during the platting process in 2004. The new cluster ordinance states that all future streets, parks, trails, and utility easements should be platted as outlots, and ' that this requirement may also be waived if only 1 lot is being platted. Staff recommends waiving ~his requirement. The park dedication, trail fees and stormwater management fees were addressed with the plat process in 2004. No new lot is being created with this replat and no additional fees are due to the City. On April 7, 2005, the Planning Commission determined that the sketch plan was acceptable. Recommendation: City Staff recommends final plat approval. Council Action: Motion by Councilmember and seconded by Councilmember to adopt Resolution #05-05- . granting final plat approval to Falconer's Ridge Second Addition contingent upon compliance with the City Staff Review Letter dated May 5, 2005 and the Developer entering into a Development Agreement with the City.
