• Preliminary Plat Lots: The lots will be approximately 265 feet in depth, a minimum of 85 feet in width (measured at setback line), and a minimum of 16,918 square feet in area. All of these exceed the minimum standards of the zoning ordinance. They are also similar in width and larger in area than the existing adjacent lots of Clearwater Creek 4th Addition. Setbacks: The submitted plans depict all of the required setbacks with the building pads shown. Streets: No additional roads are being proposed and the full right of way is in place for 65th Street. The existing road system can easily accommodate the traffic generated by the new home. Park Dedication: The current subdivision ordinance includes park dedication in the amount of $2075 per residential unit, less any land dedication. There is no land dedication needed, as Clearwater Creek Park is nearby. Utilities: Sanitary sewer and water is already in place in 65th Street presently. Both proposed lots must connect to utilities upon construction of new homes. Onsite septic systems must be abandoned according to law. These and other issues discussed in the City Engineer review memo must be addressed to his satisfaction. The Preliminary Plat shows drainage and utility easements, but the easement shown on the east property line of Lot 1 is 10 feet where only 5 feet is required; and there is no easement measurement shown on the north property line of both lots. The final plat shows the correct dimension for all of the drainage and utility easements required by the city. Grading: The grading plan has been reviewed by the City Engineer and his comments will need to be addressed to his satisfaction prior to the City Council review of the application. Final Plat The final plat is conforming to the preliminary plat and adequately addresses all requirements of the subdivision ordinance and the zoning code. The city attorney has the title commitments and will forward an opinion prior to the item being heard by the City Council. As previously mentioned, the drainage and utility easements depicted on the Final Plat are accurate.
