Date Application Received: 12/27/17 Date Application Considered as Complete: 02/20/18 120 -Day Review Period Expires: 06/20/18 To: Chair Thiesse and Planning Commission Members Dustin Rief, City Administrator From: Melanie Curtis, Planner h'1GG Date: 19 March 2018 Subject: #LA18-000022, George Stickney o/b/o Judson Dayton, 825 Old Crystal Bay Road S, Subdivision/Preliminary Plat (Topside) Application Summary: The applicant is requesting preliminary plat approval for a residential subdivision of the 20.5 acre property to create one additional lot for a single family home where one lot currently exists. The Plat is proposed as a Front/Back Lot subdivision. Flexibility regarding the average lakeshore setback requirements as applied to Lot 1 is also part of the request. Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends approval contingent upon meeting the MCWD and City Engineer's recommendations and permitting requirements of the MCWD. PRELIMINARY PLAT/PRD CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT REVIEW Conformity with 2010 - 2030 Orono Community Management Plan The 2010-2030 Comprehensive Plan guides the property for Low Density Residential, 0.5 to 2 units per acre. The proposal involves creation of two lots with a calculated density of 0.097 units per acre (or 1 unit per 10.2 acres) based on the gross area; 0.1 units per acre upon removal of the wetland acreage. The proposal is less dense than the prescribed minimum density contemplated within the comprehensive plan. Conformity with LR -1A Zoning District Standards The property is currently zoned LR -1A One Family Lakeshore Residential (2.0 acre). Two delineated wetlands on the property do not impact available buildable areas of the lots. City sewer lines exist in Old Crystal Bay Road South, directly abutting the property. According to City Code 82-224, because sewer is available the lots should be served by City sewer (and private water supply wells). The applicant has requested a waiver from the sewer connection requirement until such time when the property is further developed. The existing "horseshoe" driveway configuration would remain as it serves the existing home and the two vacant lots (PID 09-117-23-21-0005 & 09-117-23-31-0004), situated between the subject property and the properties on Little Orchard Way, currently owned by Mr. Dayton. The northern portion of the "horseshoe" driveway will be upgraded in width and contained within an Outlot to serve as the private shared driveway access for the new Lot 1 and the existing home on Lot 2. The preliminary plat drawing illustrates the proposed building pad areas for the new lot. It
