Septic Rev iew The City Council adopted a new Septic Code recently that does permit slopes of up to 12% for mound systems. Previously, sites could only have a 6% slope. The lots have both demonstrated two sites on each lot that would permit the land to subdivide with the new standards. The designs have been approved by Chris Pence, On-Site Systems Manager. Easements 1. 2. 3. Standard drainage and utility easements shall be dedicated on the final plat 10’ along exterior property lines and 5' along interior property lines. An easement and maintenance agreement shall be recorded with the final plat for the shared driveway access. The easement shall describe the area required to accommodate both lots. A certified list of all easements recorded on the property shall be submitted prior to final plat application. Park Dedication Fee Staff recommends the property owner pay a Park Dedication fee for one new lot rather than offer land for a park dedication. Before Preliminary Plat approval the City Assessor will calculate the market value of the property. The Park Dedication fee is equivalent to 8% of the value of the lot, with a minimum fee of $2,900 and a maximum fee of $4,900. The Park Commission will review the preliminary plat application on August 7,2000, prior to City Council review'. Staff Recommendation Both lots meet the requirements for subdivision and have demonstrated suitable septic sites. Staff recommends approval of the Preliminary Plat. Planning Commission Options for Action: 1. 2. 3. 4. Recommend approval of the preliminary plat and forward to the Council, with conditions. Recommend denial, stating reasons.
