Pequot Lakes Staff Report 6 (a) - 7 August 20, 2015 Section 17-9.5 SURVEY STANDARDS Survey Standards shall be those required by Minnesota Statutes 505 including the placement of all monuments including block corners, lot corners, curve points and lake survey line points on lot lines. All US, State, County and other official bench marks, monuments or triangulation points in or adjacent to the proposed subdivision shall be preserved in position unless relocation is approved by the controlling agency. Section 17-9.6 STREET IMPROVEMENT STANDARDS All streets within the subdivision shall be constructed by the subdivider or otherwise provided for by agreement in a Development Contract between the subdivider and the City Council with all expenses borne by the subdivider. Local streets and collector streets shall be constructed according to the established minimum standards and shall be approved by the City Engineer. Staff Findings: Staff provides the following Findings of Fact for consideration by the Planning Commission: 1. The subject properties are zoned “Shoreline Residential” and “Rural Residential”. 2. The metes and bounds subdivision does make the east tract conforming and places the subsurface sewage treatment system entirely on the east tract. 3. The east parcel currently contains a non-conforming dwelling (OHW setback) and a non-conforming accessory structure (OHW setback and sideyard setback). This subdivision does not increase the level of non- conformity. Both structures will remain “non-conforming” since they do not meet the OHW setback requirement. With the reconfiguration, the accessory structure located on the east tract will meet the 10’ sideyard setback requirement. 4. The subject properties are not adjacent to the municipal water and wastewater utilities. The east tract contains a private sewer system and a private water well. 5. The properties are suitable in their natural state for the intended purpose and this lot line adjustment would not be harmful to the health, safety, or welfare of future residents or the community. 6. The applicants are not proposing any provisions for water-based recreation. 7. The proposed lot layout meets the requirements of the ordinance. 8. The proposed side lot lines are at right angles to the existing road line and the property line of the adjacent property. 9. Each of the proposed parcels has at least 33 feet of frontage on public right-of-way. 10. The subject property meets the requirements of the code for stormwater management.
