MEMO TO: Planning Commission <br />FROM: Director of Public Works/Community Duvelopmuntr( <br />DATE: May 24, 1985 <br />SUBJECT: PI.ANNfNO CASE NO. 146-84, M. H. ANDERSON CUNSTRUC'r1UN <br />MAJOR SUBDIVISION, SILVER LAKE: WOODS, BLOCK 4, LOTS 1-8 <br />(COUNTY ROAD II-2 AND SILVER LAKE ROAD) <br />Attached please find the following: <br />Attacment #1 - Drawing dated May 24, 1985, showing seven lots <br />meet the City Code and three lots that do not meet the City <br />Code. <br />Attachmemt #2 - Drawing dated May 24, 1985, entitled, Proposed <br />P.II.D. Silver. Lake Woods Second Addition. <br />M. H. Anderson is proposing to amend the existing P.U.U. and <br />subdivide the property into 12 lots. <br />Let's review what the City Code says about a density bonuse for <br />planned unit developments (P.U.D.). City Code, Chapter 40.24, <br />Subd. C, Paragraph (1)e, states "As a consequence of a planned <br />unit development's planned and integrated character, the number <br />of dwelling units allowed within the respective zoning district <br />may be increased by ten (10) percent. The building, parking and <br />similar requirements for these extra units shall be observed in <br />compliance with this Code." The key words are the number of <br />dwelling units allowed within their respective zoning district <br />may be increased by ten (10) percent. Staff's interpretation is <br />that the developer is allowed to have ten (10) percent more <br />dwelling units on the land. <br />Staff has administered this Code prevision as follows: <br />1. Staff determines the number of dwelling units a piece of <br />property can have and meet City Code requirements. <br />2. Staff then multiplies the number of dwelling units deter- <br />mined in item 1 above and multiplies that figure by 1.1 <br />which gives us the number of dwelling units allowed in a <br />planned unit development. <br />Staff has determined that the subject piece of land can easily <br />hold 9 buildings without any variances. Therefore, in a planned <br />unit development, this property can hold 10 dwelling units. <br />The attached drawing labeled, "Seven lots meet the City Code and <br />three lots are short at the building line", needs a 7.5 foot <br />variance from the front yard lot width requirement of 75 feet. <br />These lots are labeled 3, 4 and 5. If you agree that this is a <br />reasonable variance, then the site can hold 10 dwelling units. <br />Therefore, the developer could build 11 dwelling unit under the <br />P.U.D. <br />
