AGENDA ITEM 6 STAFF ORIGINATOR: Mary Kay Wyland DATE: 3/18/98 TOPIC: Pierre Nadeau, 2068 Cedar Street, Minor Subdivision BACKG OUND: Mr. Pete Nadeau is requesting a minor subdivision of the property at 2068 Cedar Street, owned by Warren Solheid. The property in question is located in a Rural Zoning District and indicated as such on the Comprehensive Plan. The request would create the following: Parcel A - a 2.38 acre parcel (exclusive of roadway) containing an existing homestead constructed prior to 1992. (City Ordinance No 93 -18 provides 2) Habitable single family homes constructed prior to July 13, 1992 may reduce their lot size to a minimum of one (1) acre if the balance of the property results in a parcel of ten (10) acres, ... This property was constructed in 1977. Parcel B - a 2.09 acre parcel (exclusive of roadway) that is to be added to an existing 10 acre parcel for a total of 12 acres. This parcel would be owned by Mr. Nadeau who currently owns the existing 10 acres. Mr. Nadeau intends to hold this parcel for future development with the 2.09 acre parcel providing the access to the rear 10 acres. In review of this subdivision staff would comment that there are eight (8) adjoining lots, on Cedar and 21st Avenue, that are approximately 2 acres in size with this parcel being the largest homesite. Creation of two lots in this location would blend with the existing character of the neighborhood. We would, however, recommend that these two new parcels be more consistent with the adjoining parcels in lot width, suggesting Parcel be increased in size by approximately 15' to 20'. This would also allow for a future 60' roadway and 145' lots should this property ever. develop into an urban neighborhood with city utilities.
