The Property is zoned LR-1B Single Family Lakeshore Residential District, which <br />requires a minimum lot area of 1 acre and minimum lot width of 140'. The Property <br />contains a total area of approximately 155,509 s.f. or 3.57 acres and has a width of <br />approximately 830 feet at the Ordinary High Water Level (OHWL) and approximately <br />670 feet at the 75 foot lakeshore setback. <br /> <br />4. The proposed plat would create one new buildable lot. Lot 1 is 2.56 acres in area and <br />690 feet at the OHWL. Lot 2 is 1 acre in area and a width of 140 feet at the OHWL and <br />lakeshore setback. The proposed lots meet the LR-1B zoning district requirements. <br /> <br />5. Access to both new lots will be via a single shared driveway entrance from North Shore <br />Drive. <br /> <br />6. The Property lies within 1,000’ of Lake Minnetonka requiring conformance with the <br />hardcover regulations of the Stormwater Quality Overlay District. The entire Property is <br />within Hardcover Tier 1 allowing 25% impervious surface. <br /> <br />7. Lot 1 is developed and will have a conforming hardcover level of 19.2%. <br /> <br />8. A trail easement, concurrent with the required 10-foot perimeter drainage and utility <br />easement in favor of the City is proposed on the street side of Lot 1 and Lot 2 along North <br />Shore Drive. Because dedication of actual land for park purposes is not required at this <br />location, a Park Dedication Fee in lieu of land per City Ordinance would be appropriate. <br /> <br />9. Both proposed lots will contain suitable area meeting all established setback, hardcover <br />and lot coverage requirements to allow the construction of single-family residences <br />without the need for variances. <br /> <br />CONCLUSIONS, ORDER AND CONDITIONS <br /> <br /> NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that based upon one or more of the <br />findings noted above, the City Council of the City of Orono hereby grants Preliminary Plat <br />Approval for a 2-lot subdivision per the Preliminary Plat survey/drawing by Mark S. Gronberg of <br />Gronberg & Associates, Inc. dated March 28, 2023 and attached hereto as Exhibit A, subject to <br />the following conditions: <br />
