Subdivision Ordinance Conformity with the Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Code The rezoning and PUD Development Stage Plan/Preliminary Plat have been reviewed for compliance with the comprehensive plan, zoning and subdivision ordinance. The proposed rezoning and PUD is not considered premature and meets the performance standards of the subdivision and zoning ordinance. Blocks and Lots The preliminary plat creates 6 blocks with 55 lots and 4 outlots. The outlots are protected wetland/conservation areas, stormwater management ponds and drainage ditch corridors. These outlots will be deeded to the City. Typical lots are shown as 80 feet wide with varying depths and lot sizes as allowed per the PUD flexibility. Streets and Alleys Right of way widths will be reduced to 50 feet in width and the paved road surface will be 28 feet in width which is consistent with the Foxborough and Preserve at Lino Lakes developments. Pheasant Run South will extend from the east and connect with Old Birch Street as a local road. Fox Road will extend north -south and terminate at the southwest property line to provide future connection to the existing Fox Road in the Foxborough as was required and designed with that development. Per the subdivision ordinance, streets shall connect with streets already dedicated in adjoining or adjacent subdivisions or provide for future connections. This connection was analyzed and supported by the City's consulting engineer firm, WSB & Associates. The future connection is required on property owned by a separate entity and may not occur with this development. Two cul de sacs are also proposed in the development. A temporary cul de sac shall be required at the south end of Fox Road. Easements Drainage and utility easements at least 10 feet wide are provided on all lot lines and along stormwater drainage ways and ponds. Open space and natural habitats will be protected with conservation easements. Storm Water Management and Erosion and Sediment Control According to the Stormwater Drainage Report submitted by Plowe Engineering, the majority of the site drains through a series of wetlands south to a major wetland complex immediately south. An existing ditch system runs through the site which reaches the same wetland complex. The ditch will be relocated along the north and east corners of the site and located within a conservation easement. The location will provide an additional buffer from adjacent residential uses and provide continuation of the corridor from the Preserve development. The new design will also allow for increased filtration 6
