REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION DATE: 6-10-96 Department Approval: <j:)f ~ Manager Reviewed: ~c9- ITEM NO.: G-l Agenda Section: Item Description: Hearing Frank Tschida request for fmal plat approval at 350 8. Owasso Boulevard and authorization to sign subdivision development agreement. Back&round The Tschida family has owned property in the southeast quadrant of South Owasso Boulevard and Western Avenue for many years. The property is legally described as Outlot A of Tschida's Owasso Hills Plat No.3, excluding Block 1 of Cave's Owasso Hills, Ramsey County, Minnesota. It is 2.54 acres in size and is zoned R-l Single Family Residential. The property is designated for low density residential development in the Comprehensive Land Use Guide Plan. Mr. Tschida is proposing a residential subdivision consisting of 8 single family lots on 2.54 acres, creating an overall density of3.15 units per acre. Two of the lots front on South Owasso Boulevard and six lots take their access from the proposed Stanbridge Circle cul-de-sac connecting into Farrington Street. Ail 8 of the lots are sized in excess of the 11,000 sq. ft. minimum lot size for interior lots. However, as a part of the plat application, the applicants are seeking a 5 foot width variance to the 85 foot standard width at the required front building setback line for the 6 lots fronting on the cul-de-sac. For this plat, they are seeking an 80 foot minimum width at the front setback for these 6 lots which still provides adequate room to construct a single family home without requiring side yard setback variances. Requested Code Requirement Variance 80 foot width on 6 lots 85 feet of lot width 5 foot width variance on each of the 6 lots 2% increased slope over 80 ft. of road 8% road grade over 80 ft. 6% road grade On May 28, 1996, the City Council, approved the request for a preliminary plat at 350 S. Owasso Boulevard with an 80 foot width and a 5 foot variance for each of the six lots on the Stanbridge Circle cul-de-sac, a $500 park/recreation cash dedication for each lot; and an 8% grade for 8tanbridge Circle. Because of the 8% slope approved in the preliminary plat, the need for retaining walls will be limited (if needed at all) to a small portion of the south right-of-way of Stanbridge Circle. The Council also set June 10, 1996 as a date for the hearing on final plat 1
