Phillips 2140 Sixth Avenue North (County Rd. 6) Sketch Plan Review for a 2-lot subdivision Zoning District: RR-IB Rural Residential District (2 acres) Lot Area:4.5 acres Application: The applicant originally applied for a preliminary plat to divide an existing 4.5 acre site and create two lots. Staff informed the apolicant that this should be reviewed as a sketch plan because the proposal does not meet the zoning and subdivision requirements for front/back lots. The proposal is to divide the property at 2140 Sixth Avenr.e North, a 4.5 acre parcel into two lots. The existing residence at 2140 Sixth Avenue N. would become a back lot on 2.5 acres served by the existing driveway. A new 2 acre lot would be cp;ated in the front and also be served by the existing driveway. The existing driveway would then serve 3 residences-the new lot, 2140 Si;;’*' Avenue North and the adjacent residence at 2160 Sixth Avenue Nortii. Description of Area The 4.5 acre parcel is located north of Sixth Avenue North and is served by a driveway from Sixth Avenue North. At the time of subdivision in 1985, the applicant was required to provide an easement to the adjacent parcel at 2160 Sixth Avenue North which does not have frontage on any public street. Orono Woodlands is located directly east of the proposed subdivision. The proposed backlot is located in both Orono and Medina. The parcel to the north of the proposed backlot is owned by Mary Phillips. Subdivision History In February 1986, the City Council approved the plat of Phillips Woodland Terrace which
