The property is zoned R -1, Single Family Residential and is subject to the Shoreland Overlay regulations from the water body bounding the north edge of the project. The general layout of the project remains the same with a public street that has access to McMenemy Street on the west, then extending east and terminating in a cul -de -sac at the east end of the property. 16 single family lots are proposed within this Preliminary Plat. The entire site consists of approximately 29 acres, with the project itself constructed on 9.2 acres of upland area. The remaining 19.8 acres + is within the wetland area designated as "Outlet C" of Block 1 north of the construction area. A second public street access intersects with Viking Drive through a single family parcel with an address of 459 Viking Drive. The existing home would be removed to permit the construction of the street, and a new lot is proposed. Single Family lots are arrayed along the wetland side of the new street, which abuts the north property line of seven single family lots to the south of the project area. The following is a review of the proposed Preliminary Plat verifying whether conditions stated for approval of the previous Preliminary Plat have been addressed and met. The recommendations made in our original planning report are repeated here for reference: 1. Approval of the plat design and appropriate permits are granted from Williams Pipeline, owner of the petroleum easement and pipeline. 2. Elimination of Lot 13, Block 1 due to lot size, shoreland regulations, and the drainage easement in favor of MnDOT. 3. Raising of the building pad on Lot 1, Block 1 to a minimum floor elevation of 969.3.
