Alternative 2 (Assuming the variance is approved): Motion to recommend City Council adopt Resolution #21-156 <br />granting approval of the Preliminary Plat for Williams Woods with the following modifications: Provide a 66 foot <br />wide corridor to the 40-acre parcel to the west to ensure potential future access and/or provide a 66 foot wide <br />corridor to the abutting property to the east, both with the requisite area for a cul-de-sac bulb. While Staff does not <br />necessarily oppose this action, due to wetlands and existing residential homes, neither would likely result in a <br />second access point to this neighborhood. <br />Alternative 3 (Assuming the variance is denied): Motion to recommend City Council deny the Preliminary Plat. If <br />the variance is not approved, the Preliminary Plat, as proposed, could not be approved either. This would require <br />modifying the Preliminary Plat with a compliant cul-de-sac, which would then required another Public Hearing and <br />review by the Planning Commission. The proposed subdivision appears to address comments that the public have <br />made (dating back to 2018 and as recently as April, 2021) regarding number of lots and minimizing impacts to <br />natural resources. <br />Funding Source: <br />All costs associated with this request are the Applicant's responsibility. <br />Recommendation: <br />Based on discussion/Planning Commission Action on Variance. Previous Council Direction recommends approval <br />of both the Variance and the Preliminary Plat. <br />Please note that Staffs Recommendation includes revising the proposed Street Name to match the Public Safety <br />Grid for Anoka County. <br />Action: <br />Motion to adopt Resolution #21-155 granting a Variance to cul-de-sac length. <br />-and- <br />Motion to recommend City Council adopt Resolution #21-156 approving the Preliminary Plat for Williams Woods. <br />Attachments <br />Site Location Map <br />Civil Engineering Plan Set <br />Landscape Plan Set <br />Department Review Status as of May 28, 2021 <br />Changemarks as of May 28, 2021 <br />Planning Commission Meeting Minutes Dated December 3, 2020 <br />City Council Meeting Minutes Dated January 12, 2021 <br />Adopted Resolution #21-018 Supporting 9-Lot Subdivision <br />Planning Commission Meeting Minutes Dated April 8, 2021 <br />Comment from Adjacent Property Owner Requesting 60 Reservation of 60 Foot Corridor <br />Comments from Police Chief Dated April 8, 2021 <br />Resolution #21-155: Variance <br />Resolution #21-156: Preliminary Plat <br />Form Review <br />Inbox Reviewed By Date <br />
