UO:Planning Commission <br />FROM:Jeanne A. Mabusth, Zoning Administrator <br />DATS:July 11, 1984 <br />SUBJECT: #839 Jeff Stebbins, 2195 Watertown Road - Preliminary <br />Subdivision <br />Zoning District - RR-lB <br />Area ” 5 acre ~ dry contiguous land <br />Application - Subdivision - Plat - 2 lots <br />Lot 1^2 acres <br />Lot 2 s 3 acres <br />The applicant proposed the division of a vacant five acre tract divided <br />by a private driveway easement that serves two residence to the south. <br />The access to the property is via a 30 * wide platted driveway just to the <br />west of the Almar addition just beyond 2175 Watertown Road. The <br />wetlands survey maps do not designate wetlands within the subject <br />property although a very defined ponding area is located in the western <br />portion of Lot 2. This area should be designated on the plat as a <br />drainage easement. It is staff's understanding that a principal <br />structure will be located on the one acre portion of Lot 2 just to the <br />west of the driveway overlooking the pond within the treed area. A <br />septic system will be located on the east portion of the lot in more <br />suitable soils for a septic system. The On Site Manager reports that <br />the septic test data confirms adequate area and suitable soils for on <br />site septic systems on both lots. <br />Lot 1 must achieve access via a private access easement through Lot 2. <br />It would probably run along the north property line from the <br />intersection point at the 30* driveway along Lot 2*s north boundary <br />line. <br />Per Section 10.03 Subdiv 6(B) and Section 11.30 Subdiv 3, the City must <br />have confirmation that the private driveway easements that intersect <br />Lot 2 will not reduce the eastern portion of Lot 2 below the two acre dry <br />continguous standard. Section 10.03 states the lot must contain two <br />acres of contiguous land not divided by private access easements and <br />Section 11.30 states the driveway easements must be excluded from the 3 <br />acres building envelope. <br />Staff recommendation to approve the two lot plat application of Jeff <br />Stebbins based on the findings that all RR~1B zoning standards, septic <br />and other pertinent ordinances have been satisfied subject to the <br />following conditions: <br />1. Designate pond as drainage easements on the plat. City to require <br />Flowage and Conservation Easement over pond area. <br />2. All structures and roads must meet 26* setback from pond. <br />* <br />■r:
