Planning & Zoning Board September 11, 2002 Page 3 APPROVED MINUTES Staff stated the minimum lot width for propert y in a Rural zone is 330 feet, and both lots meet this requirement. In addition, both lots will have full frontage on a road, as required under the Lino Lakes Subdivision Ordinan ce, Section 1008.08, subdiv. 6, which states that “all lots shall abut for their fu ll frontage on a publicly dedicated street.” Staff noted all created lots are required to include drainage and utility easements. The applicant will need to dedicate drainage and utility easements to the City in accordance with Lino Lakes Subdivision Ordinance Section 1001.08, subdiv. 4. Such easements shall be five feet in width along side property lines, ten f eet in width al ong front and rear property lines, and cover a ll ponding and wetland areas. In addition, street right-of-way dedication wi ll be required accordi ng to the Lino Lakes Subdivision Ordinance Section 1001.08, subdiv. 10. Staff stated it should be noted as a point of information that ther e is an existing 30-foot easement between the proposed parcels that se rves as a driveway to an existing lot of record (“Parcel C”) that li es between the two proposed lo ts on their southern boundary. This easement is not held by the City, but presumably exists solely for access purposes for Parcel C. Staff indicated Lino Lakes City Ordinance Section 3, subd. 3.B.2.b states that parcels located within a zoning district that carries a minimum lot size of 10 acres must have a minimum of 20% buildable/upland area. Both of the proposed lots meet this requirement. Staff stated soils tests confirm that there are soils on both the propo sed parcels capable of accommodating a septic system, with enough room for both primary and secondary sites. In conclusion, staff noted the proposed Mino r Subdivision would result in two lots: Parcel A of 21.69 acres and Parcel B of 10.43 acr es. Both proposed lots would meet all minimum lot requirements, as established unde r the Lino Lakes City Code. As a result, staff would recommend approval of the Minor Subdivision with the following conditions: 1.) A park dedication fee of $1,665 to be paid prior to the certifica tion and recording of the Minor Subdivision. 2.) The applicant shall dedicate to the City dr ainage and utility eas ements measuring ten feet in width along the front and rear prope rty lines, five feet in width along side property lines, and covering all ponding and wetland areas. Such dedication shall be in the form of a Quit Claim Deed, per the C ity attorney, to be submitted prior to the certification and recording of the Minor Subdivision. 3.) The applicant shall dedicate to the City a 33-foot wide permanent public right-of-way adjacent to West Rondeau Lake Road. Such dedication shall be in the form of a Quit Claim Deed, per the City attorney, to be submitted prior to the certification and recording of the Minor Subdivision.
