Box 66 <br /> Orono, MN 55356 Crystai Bay, MN 55323-0066 <br /> July 7, 1999 <br /> Julie Hanning <br /> 4220 County Road 6 <br /> Long Lake,MN 55356 � <br /> Re: Request for Subdivision Approval Commitment <br /> Dear Mrs. Hanning: <br /> You have requested that the City commit in writing to granting a lot area variance for a subdivision <br /> of your property. The survey you provided shows a"pre-taking"proposed lot area of 5.0 acres, and <br /> . a"post-taking".area of 4.76 acres,which you correctly noted would require a lot azea variance. It is <br /> my understanding that your goal is to establish the value of the property taken for County Road 6, <br /> but not necessarily to complete a subdivision at this time. <br /> City Administrator Ron Moorse's letter of July 1, 1998 noted that the Council was sympathetic to <br /> your concerns about the impacts the taking might have on the layout of a future subdivision in <br /> relation to the existing house. It also noted that the City will not enter into an agreement for granting <br /> a lot area variance absent the public review process. When City Assessor Bill Davy and I met with <br /> you on December 8, 1998, we at that time advised you that the only method of obtaining a <br /> commitment from the City that a subdivision with a lot area variance would be approved,is to begin <br /> the formal approval process. <br /> Once you file a complete application for preliminary plat approval, a public hearing will be <br /> scheduled before the Planning Commission. After the hearing,Planning Commission will make a <br /> recommendation to. the Council. The City Council.will, within 120 days of your complete <br /> application submittal, either take formal action to grant the variance and adopt a resolution for <br /> preliminary plat approval, or will deny it based on reasons which would be specified. T e <br /> "Preliminary_Plat Au�roval Resolution" is the formal written commitment that the Citv will apnrove <br /> the�lat and area variance if all conditions of a�nroval are met. <br /> Once preliminary plat approval is obtained,you would have one year in whieh to file a Final Plat <br /> Approval application. You could also choose to not proceed with final plat approval, and not incur <br /> the fmal plat fees. A majority of the fees associated with the subdivision process are not due until <br /> the final plat application, such as park dedication fee, final plat review fee, and legal review and <br /> filing fees. The preliminary plat fees you will incur upfront,however,include the$350 application <br /> Telephone(612)249-4600 • Fax(612)249-4616 <br />
