• • • Planning & Zoning Board September 11, 2002 Page 3 Staff stated the minimum lot width for property 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 Ordinance, Section 1008.08, subdiv. 6, which states that "all lots shall abut for their full 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 feet in width along front and rear property lines, and cover all ponding and wetland areas. In addition, street right -of -way dedication will be required according to the Lino Lakes Subdivision Ordinance Section 1001.08, subdiv. 10. Staff stated it should be noted as a point of information that there is an existing 30 -foot easement between the proposed parcels that serves as a driveway to an existing lot of record ( "Parcel C ") that lies between the two proposed lots 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 proposed parcels capable of accommodating a septic system, with enough room for both primary and secondary sites. In conclusion, staff noted the proposed Minor Subdivision would result in two lots: Parcel A of 21.69 acres and Parcel B of 10.43 acres. Both proposed lots would meet all minimum lot requirements, as established under 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 certification and recording of the Minor Subdivision. 2.) The applicant shall dedicate to the City drainage and utility easements measuring ten feet in width along the front and rear property 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 City 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.
