lots, however, it has been the City's past policy to consider flag lots where this configuration is the only opportunity to provide access to developable property. In those cases, the City has required a 30 foot wide opening to a public street. This provides an opportunity for a 20 foot wide driveway with a 5 foot setback on either side.

Woessner Preliminary Plat 1.QU LoU LillJ. Lot Size Lot Width 12,400 sq. ft. +/- 73.74 feet 21,094 sq. ft. +/- 103.77 feet 17,642 sq. ft. +/- 103.78 feet In the case of Lot 1, preliminary plats proposed in areas where the prevailing lot width is less than the CUlTent standards, have been allowed to be consistent with the neighborhood, providing of course, it is possible to build a reasonable single family home on the lot without creating the need for future variance requests. In this situation, it is possible to construct a house on the proposed lot without requiring variances. It should be noted, however, that by-in~large, the lots in this area of Roseville are at or near the minimum width requirement of 85 feet. Lot 2 is proposed to be the large lot in tlus subdivision but requires the flag lot configuration for access. With this design, any siting of a home on this lot would create a "front door view" facing either a side or rear yard of adjoining properties. As indicated at the November Planning Commission sketch plan review of this property, staff would prefer to see the Woessner property develop in conjunction with the adjacent property to the east. This would provide an opportunity for a subdivision that would more affectively utilize available land in a lot configuration more typical of cul-de-sac development. In this manner, all houses could be facing the Milton Street cul-de~sac. 3. Engineering Considerations The Engineering Department has reviewed this application for preliminary and final plat and have indicated that during the construction of the Milton Street cul-de-sac, a total of 6 water services, 6 sanitary sewer services, and 6 curb cuts were provided to serve the property adjacent to the cul-de~sac. 6( a)~ 2
