K <br />#03*2951 <br />October 16,2003 <br />Page 3 <br />Septic System Capability; Sewer Pending <br />Applicants have provided septic testing indicating that Lot 14 after the rearrangement will have two <br />approved sites for a S-bedroom mound s>stem as required by City code. Lot 15/16 has also been <br />confirmed to have a site for construction of a S-bedroom mound system should the need arise to <br />replace the existing system serving the house and guest house. However, the City Council has <br />received and acted on a petition by this neighborhood for municipal sewer, and it is anticipated that <br />Lot 14 and Lot 15/16 will be served by municipal sewer in the relatively near future. <br />At the time of attributing sewer units to the various properties to be served, the guest house on Lot <br />15/16 will have to be considered under the City ’s assessment policies. <br />Lot Standards <br />Lot Area & Width <br />Lot 14 will contain the required 2.0 acres of dry buildable land after the rearrangement. <br />Lot 15/16 will contain 4.01 gross acres, of which approximately 3 acres is dry buildable, meeting the <br />minimum standards for a single family residence. <br />Setbacks <br />Lot 14 will have a substantial buildable envelope remaining after the rearrangement (shaded area of <br />Exhibit F). Note that Lot 14 is by definition a “through” lot, hence any accessory buildings will <br />require a CUP under current codes. <br />The setbacks to existing structures on Lot 15/16 will not be impacted by this rearrangement; in all <br />cases, the existing structure setbacks from the common boundary will be increased. Lot 15/16 also <br />has frontage on both West Farm Road and the “Homestead” private road, and could also be <br />considered as a through lot. <br />Hardcover <br />Lot 14 has some land within 1000' of Long Lake, but appears to be all outside the 300 ’ shoreland <br />hardcover limit of the tributary creek between Dickey Lake and Long Lake. Lot 15/16 has land <br />within each of the four hardcover zones. Hardcover calculations have been provided, showing that <br />existing hardcover is well below the established limits, and should not be a factor in future <br />development of the property. <br />Note that based on the county plat maps, Lot 15/16 does not abut the shoreline of Long Lake and <br />therefore is not considered as a lakeshore lot. <br />Wetlands <br />Based on a review of the City w etland maps, and those of the MCWD and Hennepin Conservation <br />District, there are no wetlands on Lot 14.
