Mr. and Ms. Wessel <br />currently reside in the existing home on the site. The project would create three more <br />residential lots with a private loop road, a community sewage treatment system, and 12 <br />acres of open space . Thong)1 the normal density in rural areas is one lot per ten acres, <br />the zoning ordinance allows for up to eight units on forty acres in a PUD with a common <br />septic system. (This translates to four units on the 25 -acre Wessel site.) This is allowed <br />only in areas outside the growth areas defined in the Comprehensive Plan. The purpose <br />is to provide for some development that preserves open space in areas that will not have <br />municipal utilities. The zoning ordinance defines two types of PUD: rezoning and <br />conditional use permit A rural residential PUD can be approved as a conditional use <br />permit. <br />The site is within the area analyzed by the 1 -35E Alternative Urban Areawide Review <br />(AUAR). The AUAR's mitigation plan requires some information and review criteria <br />that are not normally applied to development projects elsewhere in the community <br />ANALYSIS <br />The following summarizes the project proposal: <br />Gross Site Area 25.3 acres <br />Upland Area 11.1 acres <br />Lots 4 <br />Gross Density 0.16 units /acre <br />Net Density 1.26 units /acre <br />
