REG�JLAR MEETING OF THE ORONO COiJNCIL, JtJrJE 15, 1978 Page 3 , � No comments from the Park Commission. PARK COP4MISSION No comments from the Planning Commission. PLANNING COMMISSION Lake Diinnetonka Conservation District Representa- LMCD REPORT tive Norman Paurus requested that the LP�CD Budget be entered on the agenda when submitted. � r�Ir. Alan Olson, City Planner, entered into the SUBDIVISION record the following request of Lloyd S. Kelle��, 85 Brown Road South 85 Brown Road South, dated April 4, 1978, which #372 states: Lloyd Kelley This subdivision is a proposed lot line rearrange- ment and subdivision resulting in three parcels where two now exist. Parcel A, 6. 19 acres including a drainage area along the west edge. Parcel B, with an existing house, 88, 447 sq. ft. including some wetlands along Brown Road and up to the existing driveway. The area was holding water to within 18" of the driveway on April' 4, 1978. Parcel C, with an existing house 98,150 sq. ft_ (up from 60,000 sq. ft. ) including a drainage way along the west edge. Each parcel exceeds the minirnum lot area, lot width and structure setback requirements. Staff has asked for copies of the torrens certificates noted on the drawing. I believe three issues should be addressed: l. The relationship of this division to the other recent divisions to the west, particularly the Jackson redivision of the Kelley & Kelley division. Note that when the Kelley & Kelley division was first proposed, staff recommended � a review of all of this property for continuity and good planning of roads, access, lot design,etc. 2. Access is important. Parcel A at six acres could be redivided. I suggest further review of possible divisions and road location. The road should be an outlot with access avail.able to all future lots. A real possibility is the connection of this road to the new cul-de-sac in the JacYson division along the route of the existing road which connects these houses to the nursery building. The "ravine" noted in earlier reviews is not that much of an obstacle_ 3. The wetlands and drainage areas should be identified and protected in the standard manners. Septic testing will be required on Parcel A. (Continued)
