<br /> <br />MEMORANDUM <br /> <br /> <br />To: Mayor Stille and St. Anthony City Council <br />From: Stephen Grittman, City Planner <br />Date: City Council Meeting – November 24, 2020 <br />NAC Project No. 323.01 – 20.17 <br />Request: Request for Minor Subdivision <br />Property PID: 07-029-23-23-0001 <br />Property Address: 2501 Lowry Avenue NE <br /> <br /> <br />STAFF RECOMMENDATION <br />The applicants are requesting a subdivision of an existing parcel, currently zoned R-1, Single <br />Family Residential. The current use is as a legal non-conforming manufactured home park <br />known as “Urban Grove”. That use covers a portion of the south side of the 15.38 acre parcel. <br />The proposed subdivision would split a 4.28 acre parcel along the Stinson Boulevard Frontage <br />(Tract B) from the remaining 11.1 acre parcel containing the manufactured home park (Tract A). <br />The 4.28 acre Tract B is currently subject to a separate application for Preliminary Plan PUD for <br />a 155 unit senior housing project by other parties. <br /> <br />As discussed in the Analysis below, planning staff believes that the tests for “reasonable use” <br />and the exceptions to the full platting requirement are present to qualify the request for a <br />minor subdivision. Staff recommends approval of the subdivision and the accompanying <br />variances. It should be noted that the City’s action on this subdivision is subject to the <br />acceptability of the legal descriptions to the County Recorder, which if rejected, would require <br />the applicants to re-process the subdivision as a plat. <br /> <br />Minor subdivisions may proceed directly to the City Council for consideration, without a <br />requirement for Planning Commission review or public hearing. <br /> <br />GENERAL INFORMATION <br />Applicant: Wenck Associates <br />Owner: The Village LLC, dba Urban Grove <br />63
