December 30, 2020 Planning Commission City of Hugo 14669 Fitzgerald Avenue N. Hugo, MN 55038 We are writing regarding a proposed plan for future development in our immediate neighborhood. We live at the corner of 1215t Street North and Falcon Avenue North. Our mailing address is 12116 Falcon Avenue North, White Bear Lake, MN 55110. Our property has 1.07 acres which follows along a portion of the eastern border of the 121�t Street North proposed development. We have reviewed a Sketch Plan for LAURA and 1ARED DRENGSON of 49901211 Street North and 12165 Everton Avenue North, Hugo, MN 55110. Per the sketch plan: • EXISTING ZONING is R-1 Large Lot Single Family Residential with Shoreland District Overlay over a portion of the site. • PROPOSED ZONING INFORMATION is SFR —Single Family Residential with PUD Overlay. We received a letter dated November 30, 2007 from Bryan J. Bear, Community Development Director from City of Hugo informing us that we own land in one of several "large -lot" neighborhoods near Bald Eagle Lake. The area had been discussed by the City's Planning Commission and City Council. Their discussion was to determine how land should be guided in the City's Comprehensive Plan. That current draft of the comprehensive plan designates this area as "very -low density residential" meaning the maximum density for new development in this area will be one unit per acre. Proposed land use designation be consistent with the current zoning for this area, which has a one -acre minimum lot size. With this letter a copy of draft plan dated 11/15/07 text describes Very Low Density Residential (VLDR) and identifies the existing neighborhoods, primarily near Bald Eagle Lake, that were developed at density of approximately 1 unit per acre. It is expected that these neighborhoods will retain the existing suburban development characteristics and would not be expected to allow subdivision at densities less that these existing densities. The City has established the R-1 zoning district with 1-ACRE MINIMUM lot size to reflect the characteristics of these neighborhoods. Some of the properties in this area are currently served by wells and septic. These areas may be served by urban services including sewer and water, sewer only or water depending upon availability. Very Low -Density Residential Guidelines and Criteria • Minimum Density: None • Maximum Density:1 unit per acre • City Utilities: Required for all new development • Also enclosed was a copy of 2030 Land Use Plan (draft) Figure 4-A City of Hugo November 29, 2007 • Land Use Plan lists our property Very Low Density (VLD)
