Zoning File #1885 <br />November 12, 1993 <br />Page 6 of 6 <br />Lots 10, 11, 12 and 13 are served by a single driveway. The City ’s code requires a <br />private road at this level of service. It is d'^ubtful whether the four lots will be realized in this <br />area based on the location of the natural wetlands and the need to fill for roads and four building <br />pads. The City will also require the pl’.nmg of drainage and utility easements along the <br />perimeters of each of the residential lots. <br />Summary Comments <br />The location of the wetlands throughout the property will result in the loss of units. Staff <br />cannot recommend the filling of a namral wcUand nor should we allow variances to the 26’ <br />setback. The real issue for the City will be if it allows the filling of protected wetlands and the <br />mitigation of these wetlands. The random location of these wetlands creates a major hardship <br />for this applicant. If replacement resulted in an upgraded improved wetland over one that has <br />been altered over the years, this may be beneficial for the City and something to consider. The <br />City cannot allow four units to be serv'ed by a private drive. Applicant will have to amenu road <br />layout. <br />If applicant files a formal plan, the City will expect to see a landscape plan providing for <br />landscape buffering within the open space outlots at the north and along the east. The City is <br />already in receipt of a sample of the covenants used in a former Lundgren project and will be <br />available at your meeting for review. It is staffs understanding that members will be contacted <br />this weekend to determine if members wish assistance or guidance with the site inspection of the <br />property. <br />Isv
