#2340 - Robert & Iris Waade April 17, 1998 Page 3 Adding Dunn lot could yield a 4-unit townliome complex, with individual ownership of units and common open space; this makes rental units less likely than if a duplex was built. Layout could potentially be expanded in future if additional adjacent lots acquired. Road location flexibility gained since entire area can be used as density credit, hence road can i.void impacting Norum's house without causing lot area problem for subdivision. No need to re-route existing sewer. Possible Issues Shoreland "tiering" requirements likely result in a maximum of 4 units located at a setback of 200' from the shoreline, if Dunn lot is added, and if Council and Planning Commission conclude that "the residential lot size standard of the underlying (LR-lC-1) zoning district" (Section 10.56 Subd. 19F) is 3 units per acre. If it's concluded to be 2 units per acre, then adding Dunn's lot still results in only 3 total units allowed. Stormwater management is still an issue to be resolved All units will need to be attached, hence a separate single family home next to the lake will not be allowed No change in status of riparian access; code still only allows 1 unit to have lake rights Staff Recommendation Given the (again) lateness of submittals, staff is as of this writing unable to recommend anything concrete, other than: - Applicant needs to address all issues raised by City Engineer as well as issues raised at the March 16 meeting. - If new plans are submitted for a PRD concept, we should treat this as an extended Sketch Plan review - Since this subdivision was initially submitted on January 23, the City has until May 23 to act on the preliminary subdivision application. If the item is tabled by Planning Commission, applicant should be advised that he must agree in writing to extend the review period; without such extension, the application w'ould have to be for\varded to the Council's May 11 meeting for denial.
