MOUNDtSV11 EW �ity of Mounds View Staff Report Item No: Meeting Date: Type of Business City Administrator Review: 08B May 13, 2024 Council Business To: Honorable Mayor and City Council From: Phil Carlson, AICP, Stantec, City Planner Item Title/Subject: PUBLIC HEARING: Resolution 9917 Approving the Voyager Subdivision Preliminary Plat, 7900 Sunnyside Road Introduction: The Beaches own the single family lot located at 7900 Sunnyside Road, in the NW quadrant of Sunnyside and Hillview Road. They want to subdivide the property into two lots and are applying for a subdivision to be called Voyager Subdivision Discussion: The existing lot is 136' X 231', or 31,363 square feet in size. There is an existing house on the east side of the lot which would remain and an existing garage in the middle of the lot which would be removed. The proposed plat would divide the parcel into two lots: Lot 1 would be 108' X 136', or 14,587 square feet; Lot 2, a corner lot with the existing home, would be 123' X 136', or 16,776 square feet. The minimum dimensions for single family lots in 'Wilt-"q'w& I �+ the R-1 district are 75 feet wide and 11,000 square feet for interior lots, and 100 feet wide and 12,500 square feet for corner lots. In addition, the required side setback is 10 feet. The location of the new common lot line between Lot 1 and Lot 2 would leave more than enough side setback from the existing home. The proposed lots meet all zoning requirements. Water and sewer service to new Lot 1 would be from Hillview Road. Grading for the new home on Lot 1 would create swales on the west and north sides of the lot to direct drainage around the new home and keep it from neighboring properties. Drainage and utility easements are proposed around the perimeter of both lots. The preliminary and final plat, with notes, are illustrated on the next page overlaid on an aerial photo.
