10 The proposed subdivision and re-zoning creates 2 parcels that both meet lot size and lot width requirements along the south lot line. Although Lot 1 will not have frontage on an improved public street, it will continue to be accessed via a private driveway along the public Highway Easement as it always has since the 1970’s. Lot 2 will have frontage on the improved White Pine Road. Staff discussed with Anoka County Parks Department the Highway Easement and the County expressed an interest to have the right-of-way platted. The City will require the right-of-way be platted for public use for drainage, utilities and trail corridor purposes. Comments: 1. Right-of-way shall be platted along the south boundary over the 60 foot Highway Easement and the gap between the easement and property boundary. 2. Right-of-way shall be platted along the west property line over the 30 foot Highway Easement. 3. Lot 1 and Lot 2 lot lines shall be extended straight north-south to the Highway Easement/platted right-of-way. Streets and Alleys A 60 foot wide Highway Easement (shown on the preliminary plat as Road Easement Per Book 269, Page 189) was conveyed to Anoka County for roadway purposes in 1952. This easement exists along the south and west boundary of the subject property and also continues south along Baldwin Lake Road. It should be noted there is a 10 foot gap between the road easement and property line along the south boundary. White Pine Road and Baldwin Lake Road are classified as minor collector roads and can adequately handle capacity for one more single family home. No street improvements are required. Easements Standard drainage and utility easements at least 10 feet wide shall be provided along all lot lines. The wetland is being protected by an easement that includes a 10 foot buffer extending outward from the delineated wetland boundary. A conservation easement as required by RCWD is being dedicated over the wetland management corridor along the north wetland complex. Comments: 1. The preliminary plat shall be revised to show the drainage and utility easements on the interior of the lot lines.
