Discussion The common property line would reduce the frontage for Parcel 2 along Brown Road from 50' to 30'. A 30' platted outlot is required for front/back lot subdivisions when providing for driveway purposes only. This application is not a plat, it is only rearranging a common lot line. Parcel 2's status as a flag lot would not change. An accessory structure has been located on Parcel 2. The new property line is shown to pass thru the shed. Prior to recording the new legal descriptions the shed shall be removed or relocated to Parcel 1. Several other small buildings would be relocated to Parcel 1 to meet the required 10' setback for accessory structures. The house would not require variances for its location. The site plan, attached, indicates the house does meet required setbacks. The new property line allows the house to expand to the flat area northwest of the structure. The property owner should be advised new construction would require variances for lot area since the lot is under the two acre minimum lot size for the district. Development of Parcel 2 would require the Council approving sewer connection to the property. The proposed Comprehensive Plan would bring both Parcels into the MUSA allowing for the provision of sewer service to the site. The City Council has recently approved sewer connection for the developed property. The lot had a septic system that was non-compliant and no alternate sites were available due to the size of the lot and creek north of the property. Parcel 2 has been tested for septic to demonstrate 2 sites are available. The testing results have not been provided to staff identifying the location. Although septic may be available, the property owners will petition the Council for sewer before the Comprehensive Plan is approved by Met Council. Dickey Lake Dickey Lake is a protected lake. The applicants shall provide a drainage easement over the property __Aoc c* r\u\\n tViA m wetland. Drainagebelow the 985.5' OHWL.and for the land above the 985 5’ that is classified as wetland.
