While the property owners own 20.S acres immediately east of the property, for a total of 34.S acres, if the potential exists for future development a right of way should be considered. The general site plan meets all requirements for a front lot/back lot subdivision. Weinberger continued that the shared driveway also meets the minimum requirements. He added that outlot B is platuied to be part of a much larger conservation easement area that will be dedicated to die Hennepin Conservation * District. The Hennepin Conservation District would maintain and manage the conservation area. While Hennepin County has requested a land dedication totaling 60’ fiom the center line of C.R. 19, the City has not always required the land dedication for additional right of way. In fact, Weinberger explained, that no other areas along this right of way are dedicated more than 33*, and this might infringe on the current wetland area. . V Weinberger stated that a variance is required to permit land alteration in a designated wetland for driveway construction. Dave Zetterstrom, EntranceFcimit Coordinator for Hennepin County, has reviewed the plans and noted in his letter dated May 21,2002 that ^ proposed driveway entrance if the only location along the roadway frontage where access can be pemiitted for the property.
