4. Lots 1 and 2 are ’through’ lots subject to a conditional use permit requirement <br />for placement of any accessory structures. <br />5. Lots 4, 5 and 6 have very restrictive building envelopes due to topography, bluff <br />impact zones, and drainfield sites, which in combination leave little flexibility <br />for the location of the homes to be constructed. Each of these three Lots <br />contains sufficient width, and each is oriented in a manner in relation <br />to the shoreline such that application of the average lakeshore setback ordinance <br />to these Lots will not serve its intended purpose of preserving adjacent Lots ’ <br />views. Therefore it is appropriate to exempt said three Lots from having to meet <br />’average lakeshore setback’ standards. <br />6. The property contains approximately 800 ’ of relatively undisturbed, heavily <br />wooded Lake Minnetonka bluff shoreline abutting Maxwell Bay, located across <br />said Bay from Norenberg Park. As one of the relatively few such undisturbed <br />areas left on Lake Minnetonka, this unique natural feature is of such value to <br />the public, especially as viewed from the lake, that special protection measures <br />are warranted in order to preserve such features in as natural a state as possible. <br />7. All lots have been found to have adequate and suitable soils for on-site septic <br />treatment facilities providing both a primary and alternate site for each of the <br />seven lots. Final septic system designs are required for each lot. <br />8. Lot 1 contains an existing residence structure which meets all required <br />setbacks for the LR-IA district. However, said residence is served by a <br />septic system which has not been located and which is likely non-conforming <br />and which is likely to be located outside the boundaries of Lot 1. <br />9. All seven Lots shall be served by a private road designated on the plat as Outlot <br />A. <br />10. The private road proposed to be constructed in Outlot A is proposed with a <br />horizontal curve radius of 125 ’ where City code standards require a 275 ’ radius. <br />The 125 ’ radius will be approved based on the short length of the road (700 ’) <br />Page 3 of 10
