Zoning File ^<^1892 <br />November 12, 1993 <br />Page 2 <br />Special design considerations have been employed to minimize horizontal expansion and <br />limit hardcover. The architect's addendum. Exhibit B. notes space has been utilized below and <br />above the grade level garage as living space. A lower level patio lies under a portion ® ^ ^ <br />main level greatroom. review Exhibit K. The roof deck eliminates need tor additional decks and <br />patio. <br />The most unique solution to the excess hardcover is the proposal to install a drainheld <br />to treat runoff collected from the flat roof. 7.3% of hardcover from the walk and drive would <br />be treated by surrounding ground area. 25% of the runoff from the hardcover would be <br />disbursed and absorbed in the drainticld. <br />The applicant also notes if City would consider vacating 5' on either side ot the 60 right- <br />of-way of Forest Lake Landing that the area within the 75-250’ zone would be increased by 740 <br />s.f. also reducing intensity of hardcover e.xcesses. <br />The property has never been assessed for sewer. Review Exhibit L, the sewer is <br />approximately 120’ away from property boundary. It will be the applicant’s re.sponsibihty to <br />extend sewer to the property. Sewer connection charge will consist of the following charges: <br />Plant charge ^ 225.00 <br />Unit fee for 1970 LS-lproject 5 4,111.00 <br />Lift Station 10 by-pass charge S 2.188.00 <br />Front footage charge $25.30 per front foot $ 4,807.00 (190 x $-5.30) <br />Total fee <br />Service Availability Charge <br />($800.00 as of 1/1/94) <br />$11,331.00 <br />$750.00 <br />The fee schedule provides no direction for properties where the sewer line does not abut <br />the boundaries of the propertv but where the owner must assume responsibility for extending the <br />sewer. The question is whether it is fair to charge applicant the front footage charge at this <br />time. Applicant may wish to appeal to the Council at the time of the Council s review to <br />determine if the $4,807.00 fee could be removed from total sewer unit charge. <br />Statement of Hardship <br />Please review Exhibit B, applicant’s addendum. Hardships are reviewed as follows: <br />1. Total lot area is 55.500 s.f. but only 13,700 s.f. lies within the 75-250’ setback <br />zone. <br />2. Unique topography.
