EXISTING SITE DESCRIPTION <br /> The development site includes three properties totaling 1�.356 acres in size, located along the west <br /> side of Old Crystal Bay Road between Wayzata Boulevard and TH 12. Twro of the existing properties <br /> were origi�nally homesteads witb driveway accesses to OId Crystal Bay road; the homes have been <br /> previ�ously rernoved. The remaining and lazgest parcel has historically been used for agriculture. The <br /> site i� bound by Wayzata Boulevard West{CSAH 112}to the north, Old Crystal Bay Road to the east, <br /> Trunk Highway 12 to the south and Dumas Apple Orchard ta the west. <br /> The topography of the site is very flat with terrain subtly sloping ta a Iarge wetland complex in the <br /> centrral west side of the site. The topograghy within the site ranges from a highpoint of 1030.8 in the <br /> southeast corner near an old homesite to the western limits af the wetland at roughly 102d.8. The <br /> majority of the upland area of the site fa11s within the 1024-1026 elevation with the wetland mostly at <br /> 1022.5. The geatechnical report performed by Braun Intertec., has identified a very high water table <br /> elevation of 10�8.7 far the site. <br /> The site has sparse tree coverage witl� the majority of the trees being located in the vicinity of f,he <br /> original homesteads or along the western property line. The majority of the upland azea of the site is <br /> treeless as a result af the historic agriculture use. The site did have a wetiand delineation performed by <br /> Jacobson Environment, PLLC. The delineation identified 3 onsite wetlands, during the final review it <br /> was determined that Wetland 1 an�d 2 were connected. 'The proposed plans reference wetland 1 and 2, <br /> however, all calculations will combine the two. Tlte third wetland was defined as a seasonal flooded <br /> basin with low quality characteristics and has been h�'tstarically disturbed by agricu�ture. <br /> REZONING,PRD, A:VD PRELIII�IINARY PLAT REQL�ST PLA_V <br /> The proposed application makes request for rezonina from Qne Family Rura1 Residential (RR-1B) to <br /> Planned Residential Development{PRD). The proposed rezoning will allow far a development that is <br /> consistent with med'zum density residerttial land use as defined in the City's Comprehensive Plan. The <br /> rezoning is compatible with adjacent zoni�ag to t.he west which will remain �ne Family Rurai <br /> Residential (RR-1B. The north, south, and east sides abut public rigtat of way with no other private <br /> land use connections. The e�tisti.ng land uses to the opposite sides of the perimeter right of ways do not <br /> conflict negatively with the proposed PRD request for the site. <br /> The project will provide two different lot styles including; b5' lot width and the other at 45'. The wider <br /> lot styles will a11ow for a 50' wide home paci and a 35' wide pad on the narrower lots. The pad depths <br /> will range from 60'-65' for the wider lots and 75' in depth for the 45' lots. <br /> A summary of the proposed lot stanciards is as follows: <br /> 65' Wide Lots �34 Totai) 45' Wide Lots (5 TQtal� <br /> Lot Area - Minimuzn 7,484 SF 12,016 SF <br /> Average I.ot Area 14,772 SF (0.34 ac) 14,796 SF (0.34ac) <br /> Lot Width—Minimum 65' 45' <br /> Lot Depth—?Vlinimum 107.5' 149.7' <br /> PRD, Rezoning, and Preliminary P�at Submittal , Jannarv 20, 2016 <br /> Orono Preserve Page 2 af 7 <br />
