TO: Date: Planning Conunission Chairman Kelley Orono Planning Commission Members City Administrator Bernhardson Michael P. Gaffron, Asst Planning & Zoning Administrator April 15, 1987 Subject: #1127 Richard E. Brown/Richard Erickson, 1245-1295 Sixth Avenue North — Preliminary Subdivision - Lot Line Rearrangement — Public Hearing Application - Lot line rearrangement, property trade to accommodate proposed tennis court at 1245 Sixth Avenue North. Zoning District - LR-lA, 2-acre unsewered, lakeshore List of Exhibits Exhibit A - Exhibit B - Exhibit C - Exhibit D - Exhibit E - Pertinent Facts: Application Plat Map Property Owners List Survey With Proposed Dividing Line Staff Sketch and Notes Regarding Location and Conditions of Septic System, 1295 Sixth Avenue North Lot size, 1245 Sixth (Brown): 5.7 acres +/- dry - Lot size, 1295 Sixth (Erickson): 9.5 acres +/- dry - Proposed tradeoff; 0.15 acres for 0.15 acres (see survey) - The site of the proposed tennis court is perhaps the only flat site on (partially on) the Brown property large enough for a tennis court. Discussion: In concept, staff has no problem with the proposed tradeoff of land to accommodate the tennis court. We would not allow such an accessory structure to be built over the lot line, even if there was an easement granted between the owners, hence the lot line rearrangement is the proper approach. On 4/15/87 during staff review of the proposal on the site, it was noted that the existing septic system at 1295 Sixth is likely near but probably not over the new lot line as proposed, just west of the tennis court. Also to be noted is a catch basin adjacent to that drainfield area which apparently flows into a tile or pipe that will likely be under the tennis court and leads toward the north, discharging via a culvert north of the Erickson driveway.
