Zoning File #1470 <br />January 10, 1990 <br />Page 3 of 6 <br />If the Reiersgord property develops before a future <br />subdivision of Lot 1, the City will not have the opportunity to <br />expand the outlot to 50' width because Reiersgord will not own <br />Lot 1. The only future opportunity to gain an additional 10' for <br />Outlot A would be when Lot 1 is divided. <br />The northerly 20' wide proposed outlot segment will serve <br />only 1 lot now and perhaps 1 additional future lot. This segment <br />of Outlot A could be considered as merely a private driveway, not <br />necessarily subject to an underlying road and utility easement to <br />the City. Staff would question whether the driveway can be <br />constructed within the 20' corridor provided. If not. Lot 1 <br />could grant a widened easement to Lot 2, or the outlot could be <br />increased in width. Either way, the fire code standards would <br />require that a 20' driving surface with emergency vehicle turn ­ <br />around be provided for this extremely long driveway length. <br />II. What part of Outlot A should be paved now? What part should <br />be paved at future development levels? <br />If it is the City's intent to start requiring that private <br />roads be upgraded i old existing subdivisions reach a certain <br />level of development, that would be a positive change in policy, <br />but with many ramifications for homeowners. <br />Would the trigger level be based on the subdivision code <br />standards? (i.e. 3-6 units requires 24' pavirg, "more than 7" <br />requires 28' paving, 1, 2 or 7 being undefined.) Does the poor <br />3rd user who triggers it incur the wrath of the other 2, who will <br />help pay for it? <br />In the Parten proposal, is this a subdivision that should <br />have a trigger at the 3 unit level, or at the 4 unit level, or at <br />any specified level? Is it the intent of the subdivision code to <br />apply road standards to this mere lot line rearrangement with <br />access outlot creation? <br />III. Should the City request a road and utility easement over <br />all, a portion, or none of Outlot A? <br />If Outlot A is created, the City should logically take a <br />road and utilities easement over it, since it will ultimately <br />serve 3 or more lots, to be consistent with subdivision code <br />Section 11.10, Subdivision 21 (D). Note that the recently <br />approved ordinance which requires public accessability to private <br />roads for which the City has underlying easements, would have to <br />be available for White's future use if he so desired^ with no <br />cost-sharing stipulations.
