QlAivision ReQUest. .(J -'rain Administrator Huber reviewed the subdivision application with the planning commission stating that Mr. Herman Strehlow and Celia Crain have made application to the City of Hugo for the subdivision of a 67 acre tract of land into two parcels, one consisting of 41 acres and one of approximately 26 acres. The 41 acre parcel is located at the northwest corner of- Everton fEverton Ave. and County State Aid Highway No. 8 while the 26 acre tract is located south of County State Aid Highway #8 at its intersection with 146th St. No. It is the intent of the applicant to construct a residence on parcel B of the enclosed certificate of survey. The property in question is currently zoned conservancy requiring minimum 20 acre sites. The site is generally described as a part of the east half of the northwest quarter of Section 19, T31N, R21W, Washington County. This subdivision request has been reviewed by the Rice Creek Watershed District and they have tabled any action on it pending submittal of the necessary easements to meet watershed district requirements. The district has indicated no objections to the new development as proposed and stated that the proposed flood elevation level for that area is 910.9'. The city has informed Mr. Crain that all structures on site must be at an elevation of at least 911.9' to be out of the flood plain. The city staff can see no objection to the granting of this subdivision and waiver of the formal platting requirements subject to providing the necessary easements and locating all buildings on site above the required flood elevations. We would recommend that any approval by the planning commission be subject to special conditions. Administrator Huber informed the commission that the permit from Rice Creek Watershed was received by the city. James Crain informed the planning commission that the location of the residence proposed is as located on the survey and meets the requirements of Rice Creek Watershed as far as all buildings being above the floodplain. Mr. Crain assured the planning commission that the residence would be constructed according to the survey. The perc test has indicated that a mound system will be required as per Dale Eklin. The system will be larger than required for the size of house planned. There was no one from the general public to comment on this subdivision
