<br />City of Arden Hills <br />Planning Commission Meeting for April 4, 2018 <br />P:\Planning\Planning Cases\2018\PC 18-001 - 3246 New Brighton Road - Preliminary & Final Plat, Comprehensive Plan Amendment, <br />Variance, CUP\Memos_Reports_18-001 <br />Page 2 of 17 <br />and parking areas. The two existing structures are located along New Brighton Road and there <br />are multiple curb cuts currently providing access to the property. The topography of the lot is <br />relatively flat along New Brighton Road, but then slopes down significantly to a pond located on <br />the easterly half of the property. The elevation change from New Brighton Road to the pond <br />edge is roughly 15 feet. The pond occupies approximately 1.3 acres of the site leaving 1.5 acres <br />of developable land. <br /> <br />The applicant has proposed a subdivision of the existing property that would create four single- <br />family residential lots. Each of the lots would have frontage on New Brighton Road and the <br />property lines would extend to the eastern boundary of the site. The size of the lots would be <br />21,827 square feet, 28,140 square feet, 31,793 square feet, and 43,357 square feet. The applicant <br />has provided preliminary floor plans for one of the single-family residential homes. The four <br />dwellings are expected to have a similar design in terms of gross square footage, floor plans, and <br />their exterior design. <br /> <br />Two driveways are proposed on New Brighton Road to provide access to the dwellings. A cross <br />access easement would be required for the shared access driveways. An underground rainwater <br />collection tank is also proposed to be located in the front yard spanning two properties. The <br />purpose of the storage tank is to collect stormwater runoff from the four properties and to <br />repurpose the water for indoor non-potable uses. The entire development is proposed to be put <br />under an association that would address property maintenance and the shared use of energy <br />generated by solar panels proposed to be installed on the dwellings. <br /> <br />A Variance is requested in this case to allow the four proposed lots to have a width less than the <br />minimum requirement for the R-2 District. Lots in the R-2 District are required to have a <br />minimum width of 85 feet. Each of the four lots is proposed to have a width of 81.75 feet, or <br />3.25 feet less than the minimum requirement. <br /> <br />A Comprehensive Plan Amendment is required to change the designation of the property to Very <br />Low Density Residential from its current designation as Public and Institutional. The Very Low <br />Density Residential classification allows for single-family residential development at a density of <br />1.5 to 3 units per acre. <br /> <br />To summarize, Planning Case 18-001 includes the following requests: <br />• Preliminary and Final Plat to subdivide property into four single-family residential lots. <br />• Comprehensive Plan Amendment to change future land use classification from Public <br />and Institutional to Very Low Density Residential. <br />• Variance to allow the four proposed lots to each have a width of 81.75 feet. The <br />minimum lot width requirement for the R-2 District is 85 feet. <br /> <br /> <br />
