If a property meets three (3) or more of the criteria listed below, the City Council may <br />approve a decrease in the minimum density requirements provided the proposed <br />density does not fall below 1.75 units per acre: <br />A. Adequate sanitary sewer or water capacity does not exist to develop the <br />property at the minimum density. <br />B. Previous subdivision of adjacent properties has provided limited access <br />which restricts development potential. <br />C. Meeting the minimum density would not be feasible due to the existence <br />of poor soils, wetlands, floodplain, topography, hydrology or other <br />limiting environmental condition. <br />D. Property is located within a Shoreland District, Scenic River District, <br />Wellhead Protection Area, or Drinking Water Supply Management Area <br />due to State requirements towards limiting impacts to the above noted <br />items. <br />E. For infill type developments, the characteristics of the surrounding <br />neighborhood would not support development of the property at the <br />minimum density. <br />The City is aware of several properties that may meet three of the five criteria above <br />and has identified these areas on Figure 2.4A. Figure 2.4A is for planning purposes <br />only to illustrate the potential applicability of these criteria. Ultimate determination of <br />applicability of these criteria will be at the City Council's discretion and upon site plan <br />review. <br />
