r <br />#2340 - Robert & Iris Waade <br />May 15, 1998 <br />Page 7 <br />Issues to Resolve: <br />I. <br />9 <br />2. <br />Need to revise grading and drainage plans to match changes to preliminary plat. <br />Further study of how this development will impact neighboring drainage is required. <br />Applicant's engineer. Public Services Director and City Engineer need to meet tc review this <br />issue prior to Council action on preliminary plat. <br />Need to address City Engineer's other comments in various review letters as part of final plat <br />process. <br />Staff Recommendation <br />1. The variances noted above are required regardless whether Lot 2 contains a single home or <br />a duplex. These variances primarily relate to the size of the Outlets, and are a function of the site not <br />having enough area to conform with the required standards. Planning Commission must make a <br />recommendation as to whether the variances should be granted. In staffs opinion, the ne^ativ;> <br />impacts of the specific required variances are relatively minor . <br />2* The CUP for the berm should be granted, subject to confirmation that a sewer easement is <br />in effect. If something can be worked out between applicant and Lakeside, the City should allow the <br />berm to be centered on the lot line. <br />3. The drainage issues seem to be a stumbling block, in that there appear to be potential impacts <br />to offsite properties even though applicant can adequately deal with the runoff coming from the <br />proposed development. Study is needed to resolve these concerns prior to preliminary plat approval <br />bv Council. <br />4. This subdivision has been before the Planning Commission as a sketch plan in January, and <br />reviewed as a formal plat proposal at the February and March meetings. Members of the public have <br />been vocal in their opposition to the duplex concept (especially the rental aspect) even though the <br />zoning code would allow a duplex at this location as a CUP, which is part of the request. Other than <br />the Outlet variances which will be required whether or not Lot 2 contains a duplex, the proposal <br />meets the CUP standards established in the code for allowing a duple.x, i.e. it's sew'ered and within <br />200 of a commercial property (Section 10.20, Subd. 31). Staff recommends approval of the duplex <br />Staff recommends that Planning Commission make a recommendation based on the information at <br />hand and forward this application to the City Council f"/r review.
