■ i % r TO: ^ Planning Commission FROM: DATE: Thomas J. Jacobs* Building Official March 10* 1982 SUBJECT: #669 Tonka Lake Properties* 1340 Baldur Park JRoad PRO Subdivision • Work Session List of Exhibits Exhibit A Exhibit B Exhibit C Exhibit D Exhibit E Exhibit F Exhibit 6 Title Opinion - noting fee ownership Certificate of Title Cook letter (2-4-82) Olson letter (9-17-80) Council minutes (9-15-80) Applicant's Attorney's letter Plan - dated February 24* 1982 The applicant proposes a 4 unit PRO of the total 2.75 acres at the tip of Baldur Park - does this sound familiar - this is their third try folks 1 I have attempted to clear up the questions raised by the Planning Commission of the wetland ordinance in the section immediately below the introductory comments. Once again* staff is beginning to sound like a broken record but this property is so right for a PRO development. Our major concern will still be the Increase in hardcover resulting from any new development. Planning Commission should try to come to a compromise position on either controls over density level or limit of hardcover within each building envelope. The only reason 4 units can be proposed by the developer is the location of the existing structures in relation to the allowed building envelope. Four units required to meet all setback could never be located within the allowed building envelope Planning Commission should ask for a reduction to 3 units based on the existing non conforming residential structure located outside of the allotfed building envelope and on the hardcover increases resulting from 4 unit level of development. Applicant may be given option to remove existing house and present a plan showing all 4 units within the building envelope. (See hardcover section below) In Consideration of Ordinance 31.841 - specifically (b) & (c) At our last meeting* Planning Commission interpreted section (b) as not allowing any development within the City of lands involved with flood plains or wetlands to ever go below H acre of dry buildable per unit. #Staff has been advised that this section does not apply to PRO'S* subdivisions, etc seeking such credits. Section (b) is a tool for staff in determining the buildability of a property involved with protected area. The density review below is based on the standards setforth in Ordinance 31.841 (c). ■ ‘ i
