A RESOLUTION APPROVING THE PLAT
OF LAURANNE WOODS SECOND ADDITION
FILE NO. 1762
WHEREAS, the City of Orono is a municipal corporation organized and existing
under the laws of the State of Minnesota; and
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Orono has adopted subdivision
regulations for the orderly, economic and safe development of land within the City; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has considered the application for a subdivision
by Paul W. Boyke, the subdivider; and
WHEREAS, on December 14, 1992, the City Council approved Resolution No.
3212 granting preliminary approval for a plat at 793 North Ferndale Road; and
WHEREAS, the proposed plat contains two lots, each exceeding the 2.0 acre
minimum lot area requirement of the RR-1B, Single Family Rural Residential Zoning District.
Further, the property is located within the Shoreland Overlay District; and
WHEREAS, both lots will front on and access to a private driveway outlot to be
platted as Outlot A, which abuts the privately owned and maintained outlot roadway informally
known as Lydiard Road; and
WHEREAS, proposed Lot 1 abuts proposed Outlot A along Lot 1's east line,
therefore the defined lot width of nonlakeshore Lot 1 is 310'. meeting the 200' minimum
requirement. Proposed Lot 2 is considered to be a lakeshore lot as it abuts Lydiard Lake, and
has a defined lot width at the shoreline of 520' and at the 150' setback of the 350', therefore
meeting the 200' width requirement; and
WHEREAS, it is intended that proposed Outlot A shall be privately owned and
maintained-as a private driveway serving Lots 1 and 2; and

WHEREAS, a private cul-de-sac has been dedicated on the plats of Lauranne
Woods and Janet Acres and the City has suitable underlying road and utilities easements such
that no additional private/public roadway dedication is necessary; and
WHEREAS, Lot 1 is considered to be a nonriparian lot and shall have no legal
riparian access to Lydiard Lake via easement or any other method. The granting of such
easement would be a direct violation of Municipal Code Section 11.31, Subd. 4; and
WHEREAS, Lot 2 is considered as riparian to Lydiard Lake; and
WHEREAS, the grading and draining plans submitted by the applicant for
construction of a future driveway to serve Lot 2 have been accepted with minor modifications
by the City Engineer. The driveway has been designed in detail to eliminate the negative
impacts of driveway construction on the property to the south. As a result, existing and future
drainage from the applicant's property shall be redirected away from the neighboring property;
and
WHEREAS, both Lots 1 and 2 contain adequate primary and alternate drainfield
sites to serve the intended use, and sites on both lots have been adequately protected from
drainage concerns; and
WHEREAS, lot lines have been located so that existing residence and accessory
structures on Lot 1 meet required lot line setbacks, and the building envelope within Lot 2 is
adequate for development of a single family residence; and
WHEREAS, Lot 2 contains a wetland area located between the OHW and the
open water shoreline of Lydiard Lake. A Flowage and Conservation Easement encompassing
that wetland area is currently in effect as granted with the underlying plat of Brooks Green in
1980; and
WHEREAS, while technically a hardcover variance in the 250-500' hardcover
zone is required to allow Lot 2's driveway to cover approximately 509 of the 250-500' zone,
the need for a hardcover variance can be effectively eliminated by reducing the allowed square
footage of hardcover in the 75-250' zone by the square footage of excess hardcover in the 250-
500' zone. The area of the 250-500' zone is 1,920 s.f. Proposed driveway is 1,100 s.f. in that

zone. Hardcover allowed in the 250-500' zone is 30% or 576 s.f. The excess driveway
hardcover is 524 s.f. The area of the 75-250' zone is 61,428 s.f. approximately. The allowable
25% hardcover in the 75-250' zone is 15,357 s.f. Subtracting the 524 s.f. excess hardcover in
the 250-500' zone leaves 14,833 s.f. of allowed hardcover in the 75-250' zone, which is 24.15%
of that zone; and
WHEREAS, the subdivider has completed all requirements of the platting
regulations of the City, including:
1. Completion of all the requirements of Resolution No. 3212.
2. Creation on the plat of Outlot A to serve as a private driveway access for Lots
1 and 2.
3. Continuation of the pre-existing Flowage and Conservation Easement over the
wetland areas between the OHW and the open water shoreline of Lydiard Lake.
4. Dedication to the City of a Drainage and Utilities Easement over the private
driveway Outlot A.
5. Payment to the City of a park dedication fee in the amount of $7,200.00.
6. Payment to the City of final plat legal review and filing fees of 5200.
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City,of
Orono hereby approves the plat of Lauranne Woods Second Addition, Hennepin County,
Minnesota, subject to the following conditions:
1. For Lot 2, to eliminate the need for a hardcover variance in the 250-500' zone,
all driveway hardcover square footage in excess of the 30% allowable 250-500'
hardcover shall be subtracted from the 25% allowance for the 75-250' zone. This
is estimated to reduce the allowable hardcover in the 75-250' zone to
approximately 24.15%.
2. Lot 1, containing the existing residence, is considered as a nonlakeshore lot and
shall have no riparian access to Lydiard Lake via easement or any other method.

3. Lot 2 shall have riparian access to Lydiard Lake and is considered a lakeshore
lot.
4. Lots 1 and 2 shall access via Outlot A to the private road informally known as
Lydiard Road. Prior to filing of the plat, applicant shall satisfy the City Attorney
that newly created Lot 2 has legal access via private easements to North Ferndale
Road, and shall be subject to whatever private road covenants exist for
maintenance of said private road easement.
5. It is recommended that prior to the time that Lots 1 or 2 are sold, applicant create
private covenants and easements for use, ownership and maintenance of Outlot
A. Further suitable driveway easements between Lots 1 and 2 must be created
by the property owner to allow necessary fill for the driveway on Lot 2 to occur
at the southeast corner of Lot 1.
6. Driveway construction for Lot 2 need not be completed until such time that a
residence is proposed to be constructed on Lot 2. At that time, driveway
construction shall conform to the approved grading/drainage/driveway
construction plan on file as modified by the City Engineer. Further, a driveway
in Lot 2 shall include a loop or turnaround near the new residence, subject to the
approval of the Building Inspector.
7. Any buildings constructed on Lot 2 shall meet the average lakeshore setback as
shown on the preliminary plat drawings.
8. All existing and proposed drainfield sites shall be adequately protected during
private driveway construction.
9. The aforesaid plat shall be filed by the City of Orono with the Hennepin County
Recorder's Office on or before January 26, 1994 together with a certified original
copy of this resolution and executed copies of the documents noted herein.
The approval granted by this resolution shall expire if the plat has not been filed by the
date specified above. In that event it will be necessary to file a new application with the City
of Orono for subdivision review.
