In August 1990,theCity ofOrono approved iheplatofSenn Orono Addition, <br />creating Lot 1 (3240 Watertown Road), Lot 2 and Outlot A (combined as 3220 Watenown Road). <br />The property contains protected wetlands and a protected tributary creek. The plat was approved <br />two yean before adoption of Orono's Shorel.*md Ordinance (Zoning Code Secuon 10.56) and one <br />year prior to enactment of the Mirmesota Wetland Conservation Act (WCA). Both of these <br />subsequent regulations are applicable to the future development of the properties, and each has <br />significant impacts on their buildability. Neither lot has ever been built on. <br />As a result, applicants are proposing a complete lot line rearrangement to allow relocation of the <br />proposed driveway (which was never built and now would not be approved in its 1990 <br />configuration due to Shoreland restrictions) and to allow for slight revisions in potential house <br />locations. The new plat is subject to ‘front lothack lot ’ area and setback standards which wxre <br />also not in effect in 1990. <br />The application is incomplete pending a gradmg plan and design for the driveway and creek <br />crossing, which requires a number of vananccs. It is staffs intent to review the vanances and <br />subdivision concurrently, as they rely on each other for viability. <br />Staff Recommendation: Briefly review, proude comments, then table pending receipt and <br />City Engineer review of request^ driveway and creek crossing plans. <br />List of Exhibits <br />A • Application <br />B - Existing Plat: Senn Orono Addition <br />C - Survey/site plan including staff sketch <br />D - Aerial photos <br />E - Wetland delmeation excerpts <br />F - Septic systems information <br />G - Plat map <br />H • Property owners list <br />Information requested but not submitted as of 1/14'04: <br />- Grading plan and design for driveway and creek crossing
