The sketch plan for Shorewalk consists of approximately 90 acres on the east <br />side of Sunfish Lake. The developer is proposing to develop the property with 343 dwelling <br />units; 71 single family and 272 townhomes. <br /> <br />Assistant Community Development Director Frolik explained the property is zoned R-1 <br />Residential and up to 4 units per acre are permitted as a Planned Unit Development (PUD) that <br />includes townhomes. The development plan will require a rezoning to PUD. The gross density <br />on the sketch plan is approximately 3.8 units per acre. At the time ofpreliminary plat approval, <br />the wetlands will have to be factored out of the calculation and compliance with the net density <br />of 4 units per acre must be demonstrated. The single family lots appear to be less than the <br />minimum required in City Code; this deviation must'be addressed as part of the PUD. <br /> <br />Assistant Community Development Director Frolik stated the sketch plan proposes connection to <br />adjacent public streets in Fox Ridge 2~d Addition and Chestnut Ridge 3~d Addition. Also, 151~ <br />Lane in Fox Knoll has been platted and constructed as a permanent cul-de-sac. However, it does <br />have a 60 foot right-of-way at the common property line with the proposed plat tO provide for <br />continuation to the south if necessary. Staff's opinion is that this extension would have limited <br />~ransportation benefits and may be eliminated if warrante& The plat will also have connection to <br />i-;unwood Drive and Sunfish Lake Blvd. Anoka County approval is required for the connection <br /> <br />Planning Commission/November 3, 2005 <br /> Page 7 of 27 <br /> <br />P37 <br /> <br /> <br />
