Applicable standards are listed <br /> here: <br /> i. The land shall be properly zoned and suitable in its natural state for the intended <br /> purpose and with minimal alteration required. Land subject to flooding, land below the <br /> ordinary high water mark,wetlands,areas with high water table,bluffs,lands with slopes <br /> exceeding 12% or land containing other significant constraint(s) upon future intended <br /> usage, shall not be considered in the minimum size of a lot. The suitability analysis for <br /> each lot shall also consider soil and rock formations with severe limitations for <br /> development, severe erosion potential, inadequate water supply or sewage treatment <br /> capabilities, near-shore aquatic conditions unsuitable for water-based recreation, <br /> important fish and wildlife habitat, presence of significant historic sights, or any other <br /> feature of the natural land likely to be harmful to the health, safety, or welfare of future <br /> residents of the proposed subdivision or of the community. <br /> 2. All non-conforming structures and uses shall be brought into conformity during the <br /> subdivision process, except as specifically waived by motion of the Planning <br /> Commission. <br /> 3. Each lot shall be adjacent to public sewer or shall have a minimum contiguous lawn area <br /> that is free of limiting factors sufficient for the construction of two standards soil <br /> treatment sewage systems. <br /> 4. Provisions for water-based recreation where near shore aquatic conditions are <br /> �. unsuitable for direct access. <br /> 5. Lot area and dimensions shall conform to the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance, <br /> without variance. <br /> 6. Lot layouts shall be compatible with the existing layout of adjoining properties and/or <br /> shall not constrain the future development of adjacent properties if those properties <br /> were to be developed as per the Pequot Lakes Land Use and Subdivision Ordinance. <br /> 7. Side lot lines shall be substantially at right angles to straight road lines or radial to <br /> curved road lines, radial to lake or stream shores, and shall not contain bends or jogs <br /> unless topographic conditions necessitate a different arrangement. Existing structures <br /> shall not be construed to be a topographic condition. <br /> 8. Each lot shall have a minimum of 33 feet of frontage on a designated right-of-way. <br /> Commonly owned property or Green Space used for access in a Planned Unit <br /> Development shall have a minimum of 33 feet of frontage on a public right-of-way. <br /> Staff Findings: The Staff provides the following findings of fact for consideration by the <br /> Planning Commission: <br /> 1. The land is properly zoned Shoreland Residential and is suitable in its natural state for <br /> residential uses as permitted in the SR zone, as the property has been used for <br /> residential. <br /> 2. While there is a bluff on the north end of the properties, the proposed Tracts are large <br /> enough in size to accommodate normally permitted structures while meeting all required <br /> bluff,yard,and OHW setbacks. <br /> 3. All of the existing structures are non-conforming, except for the existing garage, due <br /> their locations in regards to lake and bluff setbacks. The proposed Tract B contains an <br /> existing shed that is currently located near the western property line. The applicant <br /> City of Pequot Lakes Staff Report 3-2 <br /> October 18,2007 <br />
