Little Canada Planning Commission 2 July 1987 PageJwo 2. Lot and Area Requirements. Both parcels meet the 15,000 square foot mini- mum lot area requirements as specified in the. Ordinance. They also meet the setback and lot width requirements. Curb cuts shown on the plat comply with City requirements. 3. Easements. Easements are illustrated on the survey as required for Rice Street and Minnesota Avenue. These easements have been dedicated and are illustrated on the plat map. Drainage and utility easements need to be pro- vided along all outside lot lines. A bituminous driveway is shown on the northern part of parcel 1. This drive- way presumably provides access to a lot to the east of the parcel. A per- manent cross access easement should be established to maintain this access. 4. Grading and Drainage. No information has been provided by the applicant as to the nature of existing and proposed grading or drainage for the site. This material should be provided and reviewed by the City Engineer. 5. Park Contribution. A park contribution was apparently made at the time the Hardee's CUP was approved. The Little Canada Parks Commission should evaluate the adequacy of this contribution in light of the subsequent division of the site into two parcels. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the simple Subdivision be denied. Instead, it is recommended that both a formal platting process and a Planned Unit Development application proceed, which would provide for the following items: o A Planned Unit Development application should be submitted which illustrates the mixture of existing and proposed uses, as well as how internal and external access will be provided. o Right -of -ways along Minnesota and Rice Streets would be platted and formally dedicated, thus changing the property lines. o Drainage and utility easements should be provided along all outside lot lines. o A permanent access easement should be established for the bituminous driveway which provides access to properties to the east. o A grading and drainage plan should be developed for the site and approved by the City Engineer. o A parks contribution should be made if deemed necessary by the Little Canada Parks Commission.
