Mabusih reported that the plan is for a division of a 6 37 acre homestead, located to the north side of Sugar Woods development, into three lots M\ structures would be removed. The property is accessed via a platted road The propeny is on a natural environment lake to the northwest, the OHW is at 985 5 elevation 4 ot the total property is a type 3 wetland adjacent to the normal high water level Each lot is shown meeting the two acres of dry buildable It was noted that it the road were moved to the west, the lots would not have the 2 acres of dry buildable required. Lot 2 requires a lot width variance in its present configuration Mabusth reported that the septic would be mound-tvpe systems, and 3 were tested at an 8% slope The septic code specifically states that mound systems must be placed on a slope no greater than 6® o Staff could not recommend approval of 3 lot piat based on septic limitations fhe propertv is not located within MUSA Mabusth asked the Commission if they would recommend approv al of current layout? A lot width variance would be required for lot 2 that gains access via a long platted corridor. The lakeshore lot meets 200' at the lake and the 150' setback Flatterer said he has owned the property for 20 years The MUSA line is adjacent to the property to the south The propeny contains alot of sandy area. The applicant selected the building sites based on the views, maintenance ot trees and slopes, and then constructed the lot lines to meet the codes The applicant was informed that with a 150-200' long road, his likely choices would be for 3 executive lots or 2 hobby farms, with contemplation for larger cul-de-sacs required by the fire depanment Peterson said it was his opinion that the propeny consisted of tw o lots, not thiee. as there would be too much crowding in order to gain the proper septic Berg agreed with this conclusion 27
