• <br />• <br />Planning & Zoning Board <br />June 9, 1993 <br />Zoning Board on the issues of land use and performance <br />standards. Several issues were outlined that need to be <br />addressed in regard to the plat, the rezoning request, and the <br />MUSA exchange. The conclusion indicated that a number of <br />issues which require policy decisions by the City must be <br />addressed. A determination must be made as to the <br />appropriateness of the necessary rezoning and Comprehensive <br />Plan Amendment, and a determination must be made as to the <br />acceptability of the proposed concept plan, particularly with <br />regards to the reduced useable lot areas, and deviations from <br />the Subdivision Ordinance design standards. <br />Upon completion of the Planners Report, Mr. John Johnson, <br />engineer for the development, presented comments from the <br />Developer. He explained that the proposed density, 1.73 <br />units /acre, is far less than the typical R -1 residential lot. <br />The density on the farm would be 2.81 units /acre and on the <br />property to the west 1.35 units /acre. There are currently 23 <br />platted lots in the area that could be developed, as is, with <br />approximately 6 acres of wetland alteration and the <br />construction of mound type septic systems. The proposed <br />wetland modification plan calls for approximately 2 - 2 1/2 <br />acres to be modified with the creation of 2 - 6 acres of <br />wetland. The Key Issues as outlined by Mr. Johnson included <br />the following: <br />a. Comprehensive Plan Criteria <br />b. Rezoning - proposing that this is logical in fill, <br />original lots were intended to be further subdivided. <br />c. Other: 1. # of lots vrs cost <br />2. Impact on air park <br />3. County ROW question - according to the <br />County Engineer, there will be no impact on <br />the street system - meaning additional <br />improvements will not be necessary to Lilac or <br />Sunrise other than possible turn lanes on <br />Sunrise. <br />4. Park - 8 acres currently existing for <br />parks, this development will contribute <br />between $72,000 and $80,000 for park <br />improvements. <br />5. New construction will be equal to or exceed <br />value of existing homes in the area. <br />d. Question regarding OHW vrs. 100 year flood in <br />determining lot area. Mr. Johnson suggested considering <br />wetland types - RCWD is not certain where OHW is in this <br />area. Wetland map appears to be incorrect. Mr. Johnson <br />further explained that the wetland edge fringed from 899 <br />to 894.5. Water in ditch is at 894 on the east and 896 <br />4 <br />
