WHEREAS, the intent of the rearrangement is to allow for construction of a major rennodel/addition project or a new residence for the parcel located at 4480 Forest Lake I^anding. WHEREAS, the LR-IB Single Family Lakeshore Residential District requires a minimum iot area of 1.0 acres and a minimum lot width of 140*. Prior to the lot line rearrangement the Properties were substandard in lot area and lot width compared to the standards of the LR-IB zoning district; and after the lot line rearrangement the Properties remain substandard in lot area and lot width. Post iot line re-arrangement, 1090 Wildhurst Trail will be approximately 389 s.f smaller in lot area and 3* wider in width at the shoreline and 2’ wider in width at the 75’ setback. Post lot line re-arrangement, 4480 Forest Lake Landing will be approximately 393 s.f. larger in lot area and 2’ shorter in width at the shoreline and 1’ shorter in width at the 75’ setback. However, the two Properties continue to meet the intent of the Community Management Plan of the City of Orono as no new buildable lots were created, thus having no impact on the overall density; and NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City of Orono hereby approves the lot line rearrangement of the Properties by the Subdividers as shown on the certificate of survey by Advance Surveying & Engineering, dated June of 2001 and most recently revised July 27,2005, as attached in Exhibit “B”, subject to the following conditions: 1.Prior to recording the lot line rearrangement with Hennepin County, subdividers shall provide a title opinion for the Properties confirming ownership and encumbrances. 2 Prior to recording the lot line rearrangement with Hennepin County, subdividers shall dedicate to the public S’ drainage and utility easements along both sides of the new shared property boundary. 3.Prior to recording the lot line rearrangement with Hennepin County, a 20’ sewer easement centered over the existing sewer line shall be dedicated for the Properties. The language of the easement will permit any existing encroachments to remain. While approval of this lot line rearrangement allows hardcover in the 75*-250’ zone for 4490 Forest Lake Landing, also known as 1090 Wildhurst Trail, to increase from 45.79% to 45.98% when 25% is normally permitted, it does not officially establish findings for approval of a hardcover variance, but merely reflects the changes in lot area. 5.The aforesaid division shown on the attached Certificate of Survey shall be filed by the City of Orono with either the Hennepin County Recorder ’s Office or Registrar of Titles Office on Page 2 of 3
