RE: "900" Forest Arms Lane
PID 07-117-23-12-0008
The property, unofficially addressed "900" Forest Arms Lane, is in the LR -113, Single Family
Residential zoning district requiring a minimum lot size of 1.0 acre and a minimum lot width of
140'. According to Hennepin County property information records, the lot is 0.53 acre and City oK-
j�
considers it to be a legal nonconforming lot. The lot is a "through lot" with street on opposite
ends. The required street setback from both street lot lines is 35' and the interior sides would
have a 10' setback.
According to Minnesota Statutes 462.357 Subd. le(f) the lot is a buildable lot, because it meets
66% of the required lot area and lot width requirement established for sewered General
Development Lakes in Minnesota Rules 6120.3300 Subpart 2a.. If this Rule is invoked, the lot
will be limited 25% hardcover. Any proposal for hardcover to exceed 25% of the property area
would invalidate the authority granted by the rule; the City would no longer follow this provision.
The City would then require a variance for lot area. The lot withiR the r=;t,
district which means it's within 1000' of the Ordinary High Water r.A survey would
be required to determine the distance fro and which level of hardcover would apply
to the property. Prelim' w indicates the property would likely be within the 500-1000'
zone t armed vi u e a o e o ar cover.
In addition the lot is less than 2 acres in area and is limited to 1/o structural coverage

The sewer project for the development (1970 LS -1 Saga Hill) has been assessed to the
property, but the Sewer Availability Charge (SAC) imposed by Metropolitan Council must be
paid prior to a building permit being issues. The,2GT2 SAC is
20LR 0
The property does not have City water available and would require a private well. �/
