Dear Denise:
Thank you for faxing the proposed marked-up Title Commitment.
In order to evaluate the Commitment, I need to see the Declarations

Those Declarations were apparently recorded as Document No. ' s

as they may raise additional issues.
If Schedule B-2, paragraph 10 will not be deleted, I need to

Thank you for your cooperation.
Very�ruly yours,

MEMORANDUM
DATE: October 20, 1998
TO: Whom it May Concern
FROM: Liz Van Zomeren, City Planner/Zoning Administrator
SUBJECT: #2004 Sugarwoods Drive
I have reviewed the street address file for the property located at 2004 Sugarwoods Drive.
The City's record indicates the following:
1. The lot area is 53,421.89 sq. ft. or 1.226 acres, which meets the minimum lot
area requirements.
2. The setback requirements for this subdivision are 50' front and rear setbacks with
40' side yard setbacks. The existing residence conforms to the setback requirements.
3. The building envelope established by the required setbacks is 19,483.23 sq. ft.
4. The allowed hardcover as regulated by covenant is 80%. The amount of
allowed hardcover is 15,586.6 sq. ft. The existing plan on file with the City
indicates that the current amount of hardcover is 10,125 sq. ft. or 50%.
5. The allowed structural lot coverage per Section 10.03, Subd. 14, C. is 15% of the
total lot area (53,421.89 sq. ft.) is 8,013.2 sq. ft. According to the file, the existing
structural lot coverage avvith the house and garage is 5,674 sq. ft. which represents
is 13%. This allows for approximately 2339.2 sq. ft. additional structural coverage.
The supplemental handout that discusses lot coverage is confusing because it gives
a number of 6,534 sq. ft. for a zoning lot that is 1 acre in size. This is not to
be interpreted as the maximum limit for lot coverage on lots that are larger in size.
If you have any questions about my review, please contact me at 473-7357.
