Preliminary Plat of Sibley Acres, William Wortham,Kevin Hughes and Thomas Ressemann, applicants. The applicants own a parcel that is approximately 4.2 acres in size. The property lies between Highway 371 and Sibley Lake just north of the downtown area. The property is zoned Wooded Residential. The proposed plat would create four residential lots. The Planning Commission is recommending that you approve the Preliminary Plat of Sibley Acres based off of the following findings of fact: 1. The land is zoned Wooded Residential, which is a zoning classification that allows the type of development proposed for this subdivision. The ordinance does not contain any bulk and density standards for a Wooded Residential zoning classification, although the Planning Commission has indicated that a lot size of 40,000 square feet would be appropriate. 2. The property contains some steep slopes that will hinder residential development, although there is adequate building room on all four lots.
