Planning S Zoning Administrator <br />October 9, 1992 <br />Subject: #1764 Austin Evans, 255 Landmark Drive - Preliminary <br />Subdivision - Continuation of Public Hearing <br />List of Exhibits <br />Exhibit A <br />Exhibit B <br />Exhibit C <br />Exhibit D <br />Revised Survey <br />Planning Commision Action Notice 9-23-92 <br />Planning Commission Minutes 9-21—92 <br />Memo and Exhibits of 9-18-92 <br />Discussion <br />After discussions with the DNR, applicant's engineer, and the <br />City Engineer, staff has concluded that it would be appropriate in <br />this case to credit as "flood fringe" area portions of the wetland <br />above the 929.4' elevation contour. <br />Also, DNR staff indicated that they would not <br />consider that the shoreline of Stubbs Bay , <br />culvert, and left it to the City's discretion as to whether <br />treat it as such. I have taken the conservative approach and asked <br />the surveyor to define a 75' setback from the 929.4 contour line on <br />both Lots 1 and 2. <br />Based on the above, proposed Lot 1 contains 2.06 dry buildable <br />acres; proposed Lot 2 contains 1.20 acres above the 931.5 elevation, <br />with an additional 0.92 acres creditable above the 929.4 contour, for <br />Ttota^ lot area of 2.12 acres above the 929.4' elevation. This would <br />appear to meet the intent of Section 10.55, Subd. 15 (A-3) regarding <br />credit for flood fringe lands. <br />The resulting building envelope for Lot 2 ranges from 60' <br />in width and 120' in depth, ample room for development of a residence. <br />Additional Factors <br />Following are additional points noted in the September 18th memo: <br />1. The property is served with sewer but was assessed onl,3r one <br />unit as part of th: Bayside Noiyth pro ject, and'this <br />assessment would logically be assigned to Lot 1. <br />> A sewer stub can easily be provided to .serve Lot. 2.* Note <br />^ that the sewer unit for Lot 2 would be charged the full unit <br />price not the reduced price, since the lot is not buildable <br />without sewer. This connection charge would be collected a <br />the time a building permit'is issued for Lot 2. Council
