Of the 11 lots,nine <br /> will be served by new private roads with cul-de-sacs extending northerly from Sixth Avenue North. The <br /> remainiag two lots will access directly from Hunter Drive.All lots will be served by individual on-site <br /> sewage treatment systems and private w8lls. <br /> The properiy contains a larga area of established prairie and for many decades has announced to <br /> passersby that this is tt►e boundary to nual Orona. The property extends fluther north into Medina and <br /> abuts the City of Medina on the north side. The big waods remnant provides a backdrop that is treasured <br /> by some of the area residents in ec}ual measurement to the prairie element,which are two natural elements <br /> that are worthy of discussion tonigh� <br /> Gaf&on stated the northeast quadrant of the properry abu#s Mooney L,ake and seven of the eleven <br /> proposed lots will be lakeshore lots. Mooney Lake is a recreational development[ake classification and <br /> its shores abut pmperly in Medina and Plymouth. <br /> The developer, in creating this plat called Mooney Lake Preserve,has indicated to Staff�at the two large <br /> outlots are to remain undeveloped and functionally are not part of tho dovelopment site. In that respect, it <br /> may be important to establish, for the portion of the pmperty that is being developed,what elements are <br /> being preserved,how they are being prsserved,why they are being preserved,and what the basis is for <br /> these decisions to fully preserve certain elements and not others. <br /> Tl�e property is zoned RR 1B,which allows for single-family residential uses with a minimum lot size of <br /> two dry buildablo acros. Each proposed lot has two dry buildabie and contiguous acres of land. The <br /> average dry buildable is closer to t�►ree acres for each af the propased lots. Roughly over half of the <br /> property is located within the Shoreland Overlay District. 1'he ordinary high water level of Mooney Lake <br /> is 988.0. Based on that contouz,all lalceshore tots as proposed meet the minimum 20Q-foot wid� <br /> re�uirement at the shore and at the la[ce setback line. Each lot appears to have a suitable building site <br /> meeting the minimum lake, front, side, and rear setbacks of the RR 1B Dist�ict as well as having two <br /> septic sites. <br /> Page 8 of 37 <br />
