Northwest Associated Consultants Inc. U R B A N P L A N N I N G • D E S I G N • M A R K E T R E S E A R C H PLANNING REPORT TO: Little Canada Planning Commission FROM: Allan Hunting /Stephen Grittman DATE: 10 October 1990 RE: Little Canada - Froehle Lot Split FILE NO: 758.09 - 90.67 BACKGROUND Direct Builders .and Eugene and Elizabeth Froehle have submitted a subdivision application for property located at 67 West County Road C. The applicants are proposing a lot split of their parcel to create a 134 foot deep lot from Rosewood Drive. The Centre Place plat, located at the corner of Rice Street and County Road C, had included an R -1 portion that anticipated the lot split of a number of deep lots south of Rosewood Drive. The intent when the plat was processed was to ensure that the property owners fronting both County Road C and Rosewood Drive had the ability to split their lots. ANALYSIS Lot Area. When the property was rezoned during the Centre Place request, the City Council rezoned the north 135 feet of Lots 25- 28 to R -1, Single Family. The applicants are requested a lot split of 134 feet in depth. In keeping with the R -1 boundary line of 135 feet from Rosewood Drive, our office would recommend that this lot split be proposed at 135 feet deep instead of the original 134 feet deep. To add to this point, the two lots to the east, known as 43 and 55 West County Road C, have split their lots to 135 feet deep facing Rosewood Drive. Easements. The Subdivision Ordinance requires that easements for utilities shall be six feet in width and be provided for along all lot lines. Our office would recommend that the City Engineer review the survey to see if there is a need in this case to acquire the necessary easements. 4601 Excelsior Blvd. -Suite 410-Minneapolis, g eN 6515416 • (612) 925-9420-Fax 925-2721
