Planning & Zoning Administrator <br />Oates May 1, 1992 <br />Subject: Stubbs Bay Sewer - Vacant Lot Prior Buildability Analysis <br />S:* <br />5'-. <br />k <br />■ <br />'■% <br />■ <br />/>• <br />feli’ <br />.-.r • <br />IS^/ <br />fejS'"" <br />I?L0'¥> <br />Eleven vacant lots are proposed to be assessed a sewer unit in <br />Stubbs Bay. Cf these, five exceed 2 acres in area and would be <br />assessed the reduced amount. The six which are less than 2 acres and <br />proposed to be assessed at a 100% rate, are listed on the attached <br />sheet with the anticipated variances required under current code. <br />To summarize the table: <br />1. <br />2. <br />6. <br />The Gage lot has steep slopes and likely would not have <br />drainfield sites, therefore is probably not buildable <br />without sewer. <br />The Sterner lot on Tonka Avenue might be buildable if a <br />second drainfield site could be located, however a low wet <br />area on the site makes this questionable. <br />The Talbert/Addison combination of four lots on Tonka Avenue <br />has at best one drainfield site, and therefore would not be <br />buildable without sewer. <br />The double lot at 3G0 Tonka Avenue has no sites available <br />for a conforming septic system, and if there was, this would <br />leave no reasonable location for the house. <br />Gronberg's lot on Leaf Street was probably buildable prior <br />to the Shoreland Regulations, since a house meeting the <br />front, side, and wetland setbacks could have constructed <br />without encroaching on the two mound sites. However, the <br />Shoreland Regulations reduced the buildable envelope to <br />almost nothing without sewer. <br />The Ehalt lot on Cygnet might have two good drainfield sites <br />near the front of the lot and more or less parallel to the <br />road. However, the Shoreland Regulations would make it hard <br />to place a house on the property without a shoreline setback <br />variance, because the drainfield sites would generally be on <br />top of the building envelope. As in Gronberg's case, the <br />new setback requirements with the Shoreland Regulations <br />severally limited the pc*-ential of building on this site <br />without sewer.
