Planning Considerations
Property Characteristics

would remain after the minor subdivision. Two-thirds of the site are utilized for agricultural pur-
poses, and the balance contains trees and brush. When public water becomes available to the

Zoning
The property is zoned R-3, Single Family Residential, which has a minimum lot size of 1.5 acres
for properties outside of the Metropolitan Urban Service Area (MUSA). The proposed Minor Sub-
division request is consistent with the existing zoning classification.
Transportation Access and Right-of-Way
The parent parcel has one existing driveway access to the public frontage along 110th Street.
Utilities and Area Charges
The property is currently served by private well and septic. Public utilities will be available in the
future as the site is located within Development Staging Area 3 of the 2040 Metropolitan Urban
Service Area (MUSA).
With any subdivision of property, the collection of area charges is required. For this case, a storm-
water area charge in the amount of $13,272 will be applied to the two-acre parcel, and the appli-
cable area charges on the balance of the site will be required upon future subdivision. A portion
of the stormwater area charge was paid in 2003, which will reduce the required area charge to
$7,854.

Park Dedication
State Statute and the City’s Subdivision Ordinance allow the City the ability to require the dedica-
tion of land up to 10 percent of the property for public parkland purposes. If no land dedication is
required, a cash payment in lieu of land dedication is required. The park dedication requirement
for the existing residence was satisfied in 2003. Park dedication fees on the balance of the prop-
erty will be required at the time of any future subdivision of that parcel.
Stormwater Management
The lack of new impervious improvements to the site negate the need for any stormwater man-
agement improvements for this site at this time.
Development Review
As indicated earlier, the applicant intends to subdivide the property in the future when public water
service is available. The detail below is a ghost plat identifying how the property could be devel-
oped further and how the parcel created with this application would relate to a future plat.

tary and water trunk area charges at the rate applicable at the time.

direct off-site runoff onto or across the subject property, the property owner is required to
dedicate such easements without cost to the City as recommended by the City Engineer.
6) The detached accessory building located on the new property line shall be demolished or
removed from the property.
7) Future subdivision of the parent parcel shall require the two-acre parcel to abandon the
110th Street access and to access the new roadway created as a part of the future adjacent
land development.
8) Resolution 2011-021 allowing for a dog training facility on the property is rescinded.
