MEETING DATE: January 28, 2002 <br />TOPIC: Resolution No. 01- 185 <br />Minor Subdivision, NE 1/4 NE 1/4 of Section 9 <br />SSR & W Development, LLC (Willard Morton) <br />VOTE: 3/5 <br />BACKGROUND <br />Mr. Willard Morton's firm, SSR & W Development, LLC, owns property in Lino Lakes. <br />The SSR & W property includes 80+ acres in Section 9. The application is to split off 11 <br />acres from an existing 40 -acres parcel, and combine the new 11 -acre piece with a one - <br />acre strip that connects to Main St. SSR & W would then sell the new lot to allow for a <br />new home site. Staff understands that Mr. Brad Racutt wants to buy the property and <br />build a new home. <br />The application raises numerous important issues regarding implementation of the long - <br />range plan for the City, as represented in the 2001 comprehensive plan. <br />The City Council discussed this application at its work session on November 20, 2001. <br />The Council asked Mr. Racutt and the residents of the abutting property to discuss their <br />issues and differences to see if they can agree to some compromise regarding access to <br />Main St. City staff has received no information regarding any such discussions between <br />those parties. However, we did receive a letter from Mr. Racutt's attorney challenging <br />the staff recommendation. <br />ANALYSIS <br />The land use and zoning are shown in the following table. <br />Existing Land Use <br />Map <br />New Comprehensive Plan <br />Land Use Map <br />Zoning <br />site <br />Rural <br />Low Dens.
