AGENDA ITEM Prepared By: J. Barnhart Reviewed By: DJR Approved By: DJR 1. Purpose. To adopt the resolution and findings based on Council’s December 10th action. 2. MN§462.358 Sub 3b. Application Deadline. The application was received on July 22, 2020 and considered to be complete on that date. The 120-Day review period will expire on November 19, 2020. 3. Background. The City Council reviewed this project as a sketch plan (LA20-14) on March 16, 2020. This property was previously the subject of a subdivision in 2016, Tanager Estates. The proposal is consistent with the sketch plan: 7 single family lots, all conforming to the lot area and width requirements*. A new private road extending off of Shoreline Drive will terminate in a conforming cul de sac. All lots will be served by municipal sanitary sewer. The Planning Commission report, Exhibit D provides additional analysis. The following points should be noted by the City Council. *Lake Lots. Lots 1-3 are not currently lake lots, but will be once they are combined with the adjacent outlot on the south side of Shoreline, as proposed by the applicant. County rules prohibit showing the lot through the right of way on the plat, but would allow the parcels to be combined after the plat is recorded. Until they are combined, lots 2 and 3 do not meet the width requirement, measured at the front building setback line. Staff recommends that no permit be issued on lots 1-3 until they are combined with the adjacent outlots. Average Lake Shore (ALS). There was a fair amount of discussion regarding the average lake shore setback. As with most infill subdivision along the lakeshore, without knowing the timing of individual lot construction, and to preserve building sites, it is appropriate to consider “manufacturing” an Average Lakeshore Setback line for the initial construction. The ALS line for Tanager (Line B on the attached Exhibit H) is established by the principal structure at 1100 Millstone, and the approved house pad for lot 3, Tanager Estates. Without this manufactured ALS, a house on lot 6 built before lot 3 Tanager Estates would need to be setback 423 feet, lot 6 is 380 feet deep. The current, predevelopment ALS for Smith Bay is shown as line A on Exhibit H as is established by the existing neighboring homes: West 1760 Shoreline Dr. setback 982 feet from the lake East 1125 Millston Rd. setback 442 feet from the lake The proposed ALS for lots 1-3 is shown as line C. Without the adjustment, lot 3 is not buildable ever, and lot 2 is likely not buildable, though the order of construction may influence potential building sites.
