If the floodway is defined at an elevation near 930.0 or higher* the flood fringe credit may not be available. Under the assumption that enough flood fringe area is available to meet the 2 acre lot area requirement* the proposed lot boundaries allow for adequate area and width for this to be a legitimate building site* although it at first viewing would be perceived as relatively low land. There is a lilcely buildable envelope approximately 120* deep and 130* wide. One other unresolved concern is* if the 929.4 contour continues from Stubbs Bay through the culvert and up the creek* whether a 75* setback must be *equired. If so* this would reduce the building envelope width tt perhaps 115'* still leaving substantia} area to develop a residence The property abuts municipal sewer* and s within the MUSA boundary as recently amended. Only one sewer unit was assessed to the property* intending to serve Lot 1. A stub can easily be provided to serve Lot 2. KJOTB '• /o o— , f- hLA a '.r . City policy is to collect the second sew«r unit at the time a building permit is issued for the second residence on the property* regardless of which lot the second house is built on. •Tuc.: ft- ' 'r'l' The Orono Park Commission has"requested that* in addition to the standard park dedication fee* a 10* bike trail easement be granted over the 10* drainage and utility easement adjacent to Bayside Road. The park fee would be adjusted to compensate for the easeawnt. A copy of the proposed plat has been forward to Hennepin County Department of Transportation for review of a driveway location for Lot 2. Me have no response as of this writing. The City Engineer notes a potential concern on driveway location and sight distance* hence any recommendation for approval must be contingent on driveway location approval from Hennepin County. The City has requested an easement through Lot 1 for municipal sewer lines extending northwestward to serve the house at 185 Landmark Drive. The originally proposed easement location was down the old driveway corridor through the center of the lot. Applicant has discussed with Public Works a relocation of that easement to reduce the impact on Lot I's building site. Since Bayside Road is considered a scenic par)cway but not an arterial road within the Comprehensive Plan* there is no requirement that access to Lot 2 be provided by an interior roadway system.j
