The subject property is located on Rolling Oaks Circle NE, south of CSAH 42 and east of Pike Lake Trail NE. History The majority of the subject property is located on Lot 5, Eagle Ridge Acres. The Eagle Ridge Acres plat was created in 1959 and the existing home on the site was constructed in 1979. In 2007 the Knob Hill 2nd Addition neighborhood was developed to the west and Outlot D, Knob Hill 2nd Addition was deeded to the owners of the subject property to accommodate an above ground pool on the property, which has since been removed. Current Circumstances The current proposal calls for a three-lot single family subdivision of the site. The existing residence is proposed to remain on Lot 3. A preliminary and final plat process is required, as opposed to an Administrative Land Subdivision, due to the existence of a platted lot and an Outlot. Subsection 1002.400 of City Code allows for the combination of preliminary and final plat approval. The subsections states, in some instances, due to the simplicity of the proposed subdivision, the City staff may agree to combine the preliminary and final plat process. The process may be combined only when a proposed subdivision meets all the following requirements:  The resulting subdivision contains no more than 5 lots.  The proposed subdivision is in an area where streets and utilities are in place and capable of serving the subdivision.  The proposed subdivision does not require the dedication or construction of future streets, and will not interfere with the development of adjacent properties.  The resulting parcels shall conform with all provisions of the Zoning Ordinance. The following paragraphs outline the physical characteristics of the existing site, the Comprehensive Plan and zoning designations, and a description of some of the specifics of the site. PHYSICAL SITE CHARACTERISTICS: Total Site Area: The total development site area consists of 1.21 acres. Topography: This area has slightly rolling topography, with elevations ranging from the 934’ on the northwestern and southeasterly side of the property to approximately 921’ in the center and 919’ near Rolling Oaks Circle NE. Wetlands: No wetlands exist on the proposed site. Access: Access to the site is from Rolling Oaks Circle NE. 2030 Comprehensive Plan Designation: This property is designated for Low Density Residential uses on the 2030 Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map. Zoning: The site is presently zoned R-1 Low Density Residential. PROPOSED PLAN Lots: The plan calls for three lots to be constructed of single family housing styles. The lot sizes range in size from approximately 16,300 square feet to 18,400 square feet. All lots meet the minimum dimensional requirements. Setbacks: The typical residential required setbacks of 25-foot front, 10-foot side yards, and 25-foot rear yard are being proposed. Parks / Trails: No park or trails are proposed. Parkland dedication will be satisfied through a cash-in-lieu payment to the City Park Fund with Plat approval. Fees and Assessments: This development will be subject to the park dedication fee for the two new lots being created, as well as the deferred assessment associated with the Rolling Oaks street reconstruction project in the amount of $18,000 for the two new lots being created. Access / Street: Each proposed lot will have a separate driveway. The driveway serving the existing residence will be realigned to be entirely on proposed Lot 3. Sanitary Sewer / Water Mains: Sanitary sewer and water mains were installed in Rolling Oaks Circle right-of-way in 2017. Individual sewer and water connections were stubbed into this property as part of the street reconstruction project last year in anticipation of a future subdivision. Tree Preservation / Landscaping: Subsections 1107.2105 and 1005.1000 of City Code outline the tree preservation and landscaping requirements for developments. A total of 557 caliper inches of significant trees were identified on the property. Grading associated with the proposed building pads and driveway construction will require removal of existing trees; however, a majority will remain. Approximately 12% (69 caliper inches) of significant trees are anticipated to be removed. Up to 35% of the total caliper inches of significant trees can be removed for the creation of buildings pads, utilities, streets, etc. on previously platted and developed lots without replacement or restitution. Each new lot will be required to have two front yard trees, which are a minimum of 2.5 caliper inches in diameter of an approved species. Grading / Storm water: The Engineering Department has reviewed the proposed plat and is working with the applicant to obtain additional information for review and approval by staff prior to consideration of the plat by the City Council. Staff is working with the applicant to obtain additional information related to grading and drainage as well as erosion and sediment control to verify compliance with stormwater management requirements. This information shall be approved by the City Engineer prior to consideration of the plat by the City Council. Conclusion City Staff recommends approval of the combined preliminary and final plat to be known as Eagle Ridge Second Addition. ISSUES: The applicant must submit additional information related to grading and drainage as well as erosion and sediment control to verify compliance with Stormwater management requirements. It appears the applicant will be able to meet the requirements; therefore, City Staff recommends approval of the combined preliminary and final plat subject to the following conditions: 1. The Developer shall submit the necessary information to the City Engineer for review and approval prior to consideration of the plat by the City Council. 2. The Developer shall obtain the required permits from other state or local agencies prior to any work on the site. ALTERNATIVES: 1. Motion and a second to recommend approval of the Combined Preliminary and Final Plat for Eagle Ridge Second Addition subject to listed conditions above and any others that may be added or modified by the Commission. 2. Motion and a second to recommend denial of the preliminary plat request based upon findings of fact. 3. Motion and a second to table this item to a future Planning Commission meeting and provide the applicant with direction on the issues that have been discussed.
