3.0 BACKGROUND 4.1 The property, located in Planning District 13, has a Comprehensive Plan land use designation of Low-Density Residential (LR) and a zoning classification of Low-Density �1 � Residential 1 (LDR-1) District. �� 42 A�NOx sUB�IVIS1oN application has been submitted in lieu of the preliminary plat/final � plat process because § 1104.04E (Minor Subdivision) of the City Code establishes the �� three-parcel minor subdivision process to simplify those subdivisions "which create a 1 total of three or [fewer] parcels, situated in an area [adequately served by public utilities � and streets], and the new parcels meet or exceed the size requirements of the zoning � code." The current application meets all of these criteria. �� 43 This same MINOx suB�IVIS1oN was approved in 1995 but, since it was not recorded at � Ramsey County, the approval has since expired. 1 5.0 REVIEW OF PROPOSED MINOR SUBDIVISION � 5.1 City Code § 1103.06 (Lot Standards) requires one-family residential parcels at street 2 corners to be at least 100 feet in both dimensions and comprise a minimum of 12,500 � square feet of land area; interior parcels must be a minimum of 85 feet wide and have at �� least 11,000 square feet of area. The proposed parcels are identified as Tract A and Tract �� B in the site plan included with this staff report as Attachment C. Both parcels, each 2� having area of approximately 31,500 square feet and dimensions not less than 130 feet, 2:�� would exceed the Subdivision Code's minimum standards. � 52 City Code § 1103.07 (Park Dedication) specifies that park dedication applies "when a 2�� new building site is created in excess of one acre;" by these parameters, park dedication 2� is not required for the proposed Tract A. � 53 City Code § 1103.04 (Easements) requires 12-foot-wide drainage and utility easements U centered on the rear and new, common side property lines; these easements are illustrated � in Attachment C. � 5.4 In reviewing the application, comments from Roseville's Development Review U Committee (DRC) were primarily from Public Warks Department staff; their main �. comments involved the fact that starm water requirements of the City and the watershed v district have changed significantly in the past 20 years, and future new construction on .� the vacant parcel will need to comply with the requirements in effect at that time. � 5.5 According to the procedure established in § 1104.04E, if a lvmvoR suB�IVIS1oN application ., is approved, a survey of the approved parcels, the new legal descriptions, and any � necessary Quit Claim or Warranty deeds must be submitted within 30 days for � administrative review to verify consistency with the City Council's approval; then the �� required easements must be prepared, and the easements and legal descriptions must be � filed by the applicant with the Ramsey County Recorder. � 5.6 A tree preservation plan will also be required as part of the application for a building �� permit for a home on the new Tract A, pursuant to § 1011.04 (Tree Preservation and s� Restoration) of the City Code.
