AGENDA ITEM <br />Item No.: 13 <br />Date: September 25, 2017 <br />Item Description: #17-3973, Matthew Hemsley, 649 Ferndale Road W, Detachment — <br />Resolution <br />Presenter: Melanie Curtis Agenda Consent Agenda <br />Planner Section: <br />1. Purpose. This application is regarding detachment of a property from the City of Orono and <br />annexation of the same to the City of Wayzata. <br />2. MN§15.99 Application Deadline. The application was received and considered to be complete <br />on September 11`x'. The 60 -Day review period expires on November 10, 2017. <br />3. Background. The property at 649 Ferndale Road West, is proposed to be redeveloped with a new <br />single family residence. This property is unique in that it is comprised of 4 separate lots; two lots <br />located within the Wayzata city boundary, and two lots within the city boundary of Orono. Also, <br />there is an undeveloped City of Wayzata right-of-way abutting this property which also serves as <br />the property's access to Ferndale Road West. The property is connected to Wayzata's sewer. <br />In order to build a new residence on the property (in general the location of the existing home) the <br />two Orono PIDs would need to be combined, at a minimum, to avoid the complication of the lot <br />line cutting through the proposed home. This configuration unnecessarily adds complexity to the <br />use and governance of the land; the property owner began exploring additional solutions, <br />including combining all 4 PIDs to be located in one municipality. Because their access and the <br />sanitary sewer are within Wayzata, it was determined that detachment to that city would be the <br />most logical option for resolution. To combine all 4 PIDs into one parcel, there would need to be <br />a simultaneous detachment/attachment action taken by the Councils of both cities; this can be <br />accomplished via an agreement or resolution. <br />4. Public Comment. No comments from the public have been received regarding this application. <br />5. Staff Recommendation.
