HomeMy WebLinkAboutRe: potential development ., To: Mike Steadman From: Mike Gaffron/Melanie Curtis Date: 1/15/14 Subject: 1700 Shoreline Drive The links and information listed below are regarding potential development of the 32t acre property at 1700 Shoreline Drive. This property is located in Orono's LR-lA zoning district. Within the LR-lA district regulations you will find Code Sections 78-303 (2) and (7) which discusses the CUP for a Guest House and the provision of a CUP for a bathtub/shower in an accessory building. The property is in the MUSA and eligible to be developed with municipal sewer at the zoned density of 1 unit per 2 dry buildable acres. For specific information regarding developing with City sewer please contact Jesse Struve, our City Engineer, His contact information is 952.249.4661 or jstruve@ci.orono.mn.us Additional specifics are listed below: LR-1A District ReQs Subdivision Regulations Residential Planned Unit Development (RPUD) District Standards 2013 Fee Schedule Flag Lots: aka "Front/Back Lots" - Link 1 and Link 2 Lot Standards Conservation Desiqn Wetlands Hardcover (aka Stormwater Overlay District regulations) Fees (tbd): Subdivision fees are included in the 2013 Fee Schedule (link below). The fee for a sketch plan �e vie w i s $350. For a p�eliminary plat application your base fee would be $850 plus $30/lot. Additional Special Improvement Review fees that will likely apply to your development as discussed are: $10,000 application review escrow, Proposed Private Road $650 plus $0.50/lineal foot, Sanitary Sewer main extension $275 plus $25/stub, Storm Sewer system (except culverts) $250. Park fees and Stormwater Drainage Trunk Fees also apply as outlined in the 2013 Fee Schedule. For a final plat applicationthe application fee is $700 (depending on timing we will continue to hold the $10,000 prelim plat escrow, or refund and require a new escrow), A summary of the minimum subdivision/platting requirements are listed within the Subdivision Application form. Gated developments or entry Monuments 78-1405(a)(9) Lake Minnetonka is classified as a General Development lake. Tanager Lake however is classified as a Recreational Development lake. A RD lake has separate setback requirements from the 929.4' ordinary high water level elevation dependent on whether or not the property has sewer or septic. Sewered lots have a 75' structural setback from the OWHL, septic lots have a 100' structural setback. City Code section 78-1279 outlines the additional setback requirements on lakeshore/bluff lots. Definitions regarding lot area/dry buildable determination: • Zoning Code Definition excerpts: Lot area means the area of a lot in a horizontal plane bounded by the lot lines, but not including any area occupied by the waters of a duly recorded lake or river or wetiand or area which has been dedicated as public right-of-way. Lot, back, means a lot typically separated from a public or private road by another lot and which gains access to the pubiic or private road via a narrow corridor. Such a separated lot is considered to be a back lot when the corridor is platted as an outlot. A separated lot is considered to be a flag lot when the corridor is platted as part of the lot. When the corridor is merely an easement over another lot, the separated lot is considered to be an easement back lot. Lot, come�, means a lot situated at the junction of, and abutting on, two or more intersecting streets, or a lot at the point of deflection in alignment of a continuous street, the interior angle of which does not exceed 135 degrees, Lot c�verage means the total square footage of all building footprints and structures on a parcel. Latol�obhmeans the mean horizontal distance between the front lot line and the rear lot line of a lot. Lot, front, means a lot abutting a public or private road, across which an outlot has been platted for access to a back lot. Lot, ir�;means a lot other than a corner lot. Lot/in�emeans the properly line bounding a lot; except that where any portion of a lot e�ctends into the public right-of-way or a proposed public right-of-way, the line of such public right-of-way shall be the lot line. Lot line, front, means that boundary of a lot which abuts an existing or dedicated public or private street, and in the case of a corner lot it shall be the shortest dimension on a public or private street. If the dimensions of a corner lot are equal, the front lot line shall be designated by the owner and filed in the office of the building inspector. Latlin�e,�r,means that boundary of a lot which is opposite the front lot line. If the rear lot line is less than ten feet in length, or if the lot forms a point at the rear, the rear lot line shall be a line ten feet in length within the lot, parallel to and at the maximum distance from the front lot line. On a lakeshore lot, the rear lot line is the lot line that is opposite the natural ordinary high water mark at the lakeshore. B/uffineansa topographic feature, such as a hill, cliff or embankment, having the following characteristics (An area with an average slope of less than 18 percent over a distance of 50 feet or more shall not be considered part of the bluff): 1. Part or all of the feature is located in a shoreland area; 2. The slope rises at least 25 feet above the ordinary high water level of the water body; 3. The grade of the slope from the toe of the bluff to a point 25 feet or more above the ordinary high water level averages 30 percent or greater; and 4. The slope must drain toward the water body. Bluff impactzone means a bluff and land located within 20 feet from the top of a bluff. Bluff, toe of the, means the lower point of a 50-foot segment with an average slope exceeding 18 percent. Bluff, top of the, means that point on the cross section of a bluff below which the slope becomes more than 18 percent and above • Subdivision Code Excerpts: Dry buildable land means land area occurring within the property lines of a parcel or lot, excluding drainageways, flowage areas, floodplains, wetlands, marshland or slopes of 18 percent or greater. Lot area, minimum, means minimum area required for each proposed lot as prescribed in chaeter 78. In rural zones not served by sanitary sewer, each lot must contain a minimum of two acres of contiguous dry buildable land exclusive of wetlands, public and private rights-of-way, vehicular or pedestrian easements, surface areas below the ordinary high water mark of any surface water or areas at or below the floodplain elevation for a specific property. All rural lots must comply with chapter 58� article II. In urban areas served by sanitary sewer, each lot must contain contiguous dry buildable land equal to the minimum areas as prescribed in chapter 78 or half-acre, whichever is less (exclusive of public and private rights-of-way,vehicular or pedestrian easements, surface areas below the ordinary high water mark of any surface water wetlands or areas at or below the floodplain elevation for a specific property), and have legai access to the building site without encroachment of a wetland or floodplain area.

For lots which abut a lake or tributary, at the shoreline measured in a straight line between the points at which the side lot lines intersect the OHWL, and at the required structure setback from the OHWL, measured in a straight line between the points of intersection of the side lot lines with the structure setback line.
