FILE # LA20-48 August 17, 2020 Page 3 of 4 Average Lake shore setback (ALS). The subject property has frontage on two lakes, with extreme setbacks on adjacent lots, drastically impacting the ALS for the new lots. The average setback for the proposed lot 6 is shown on the plat, and is influenced by lot 3 of Tanager Estates (currently unbuilt) and 1100 Millston Road. Since this line is predicated on the building pad site for lot 3, Tanager Estates, It is suggested that the ALS for the initial construction of lot 6 be established by resolution, at the time of final plat. Without using Lot 3, Tanager Estates, the setback between the lake and the principal structure at 1100 Millston Rd (appx 400 feet) would establish the ALS for lot 6, effectively making Lot 6 unbuildable without variances. The current Smith Bay ALS for the property is illustrated on Exhibit J. The building pads for lots 1, 2, and 3 will be lake ward of this existing line. Further, if lot 3 is built before lot 2, the ALS setback would be based on the distance between the house at 1760 Shoreline and the lake, approximately 971 feet, making lot 3 unbuildable without a variance. Staff suggests establishing the ALS for the initial structure by resolution at the time of final plat, based on the generic house pad location found on the preliminary plat. Stormwater Quality Overlay District prescribes stormwater quality standards, a maximum amount of hardcover on a given lot. The subject parcel is in Tier 1, due to its proximity to Tanager and Lake Minnetonka. Upon subdivision, each lot will be assigned a Tier. These assignments have not been completed. It is anticipated that lots 1 - 6 will be Tier 1 (25%) and lot 7 may be Tier 2 (30%). Tier assignments will be made as part of the final plat. All lots proposed are greater than 2.0 acres and are exempt from the structural coverage limitation. Parks. The plan does not include any park area. Park dedication will be satisfied by a cash donation for the 6 new lots. Landscaping. The applicant has not yet provided a landscaping plan. The subdivision code does require one shade tree per 40 feet of right of way. Staff recommends the trees be planted in clumps, a more natural effect rather than the traditional linear pattern found in suburban subdivisions. Fees. The following fees are anticipated for this proposed subdivision, to be due at the time of Final Plat approval, subject to the fee schedule applicable at that time. Per Lot fee x Number of New lots =Total fee Stormwater Truck Fee 8,060.00$ 6 48,360.00$ Sanitary sewer Connection 5,380.00$ 6 32,280.00$ SAC fees also due at time of Permit Park dedication 5,550.00$ 6 33,300.00$ Total Fees 113,940.00$
