. Minutes of Regular Council Meeting January 9, 1984 Page Th ree . Case No. 83-2J, Preliminary Plat -Lametti Addition A transparency of the propoaed l>reliminary Plat of Lametti AdditioP. was displayed. Hicks described the location of the 8.3 acre parcel as west of Snelling Avenue and north of Bussard Court; noted that 14 resid.ntial lots are proposed, all of which meet or exceed subdivision require- ments, except. L2 I12, which is 700 sq. ft. under the required 14,000 square foot area requirement. !licks noted that this lot is 95' wide x 140' an.d is bordered on the east by an exceptionally wide Snelling Avenue r.o.w. (80' - 85') between paved portion of street and lot line. Hicks reviewed the City Engineer's report, noting an 8% grade for 180' of street which should be @ 6% grade, 90' paved cul de sac diameters which should be 100' diameters. Hicks said these are apparently corrections th.at can be made without altering the lot sizes. Hicks reported that the Planning Commission recommends approval of .the Preliminary Plat subject to restrictive covenants for cOntrol and maintenance of the common recreationlponding srea, shifting of the Lametti Circle cul de sac to the north by 5'-6' to provide greater separation between cul de sac and south boundary of the plat, and designation on lots 3 snd 4, block 2 that south sideyard se tback be 15'. William Muske noted that two lots have lake frontage (Lot 9, Block 2 and Lot 5, Block 1); consequently the 12 off.,.lake lots will be owners of the common recreationlponding area. Muske asked if these 12 lot owners would be permitted to launch boats at this site; feels it would be an important amenity to the,lot owners 'to not have to use the public launch; noted this is not a public area; owners will maintain and police it; noted that a luxury development is proposed, not intended for public dedication. Muske said the area is very wooded and will be retained as much as possible, ss proposed. Muske noted that Lametti Lane, at Snelling Avenue, will be graded to provide adequate sight distance. In answer to proposed boat launch, Kuske said he envisions a ramp of some kind (probably paved or macadam) at the north end of the recreation area, where boats can be put into the lake and removed. Muske said it is not envisioned that boats would be permanently moored at the recreation srea. Muske said the south portion of the recreation area is a natural ponding area. (It waS suggested that the Cit~ Engineer be apprised of the macadsm or paved road to the lake, for his drainage computations.) . Muske said the 6% grade is apparently possible to achieve; noted this is a design recommendation by the City Engineer. The kind of boat dock was queried. Muske said probably a straight dock, with T at the end. Concern. was expressed relative to over- night docking of motor boats or the storage of boats in the common area. It was noted that restrictions were placed on Lake Johanna some years ago to control usage of the lake. Development of the recreation area was queried re playground equipment, structures, picnic tables, etc.' Muske said this is unknown at this time. Kuske said they want to incorporate Council's concerns of the covenants.
