MEMORANDUM
Mayor & City Council
Gary Schmitz, Planning Assistant
September 18, 1995
SUBJECT: Administrative Subdivision Request by
Joe Goetz, Public Hearing
Case No. AS 95-8
Request
Joe Goetz is requesting an administrative subdivision to divide Lot 6, Block
2, Deerfield First Addition into two lots which will measure 3.24 acres (Parcel
A) and 2.5 acres (Parcel B) in size.
Location
• Lot 6, Block 2, Deerfield First Addition, 20321 Auburn Street NW
Zoning/Land Use
R1a (Single Family Residential) / LR (Low Density Residential)

• Lot Survey
Background
Lot 6, Block 2, Deerfield 1st Addition is zoned Rla which requires a
minimum lot size of 2.5 acres with 160 feet of frontage. Joe Goetz is
proposing to subdivide Lot 6, Block 2, Deerfield First Addition into two
parcels which meet the minimum size and width requirements in the Rla
zoning district. Lot 6, Block 2 is currently 5.74 acres in size. The subdivision
would create a 3.24 acre parcel (Parcel A) and a 2.5 acre parcel (Parcel B).
Each lot would have the necessary 160 feet of frontage. The applicant
currently owns an existing home on proposed Parcel A which would meet all
• the required setbacks from the newly created lot line. Both parcels would

• have access onto Auburn Street NW. Deerfield First. Addition was platted in
1983 into 34 lots. It is unclear as to why the developer of this subdivision
platted Lot 6 into such a large overall parcel.
Natural Features
The parcel has a wetland basin which bisects each proposed lot. The
proposed Parcel B also has an 80 foot drainage and utility easement which
extends along a portion of the southern lot line up to Auburn Street. A
drainage and utility easement already exists over the wetland area,
therefore, no further protection measures will be necessary for the wetland.
It appears that there is adequate room to construct a home on the site and
still have room for two septic systems in case the first septic system would
fail. The applicant has provided soil borings which indicate the site can
support a septic system. Both Parcel A and B are, for the most part, open
with very few trees associated with either parcel. Therefore, a tree protection
plan is not necessary with this request.
Park Dedication
The Park and Recreation Commission reviewed this proposal at their last
meeting and recommended a cash payment of $500 be added as a condition of
• approval.
Surface Water Management Impact Fee
In order to remain consistent with past administrative subdivision requests,
the Surface Water Management Impact Fee of $61.80 for parcels without city
services should also be a condition if the administrative subdivision is
approved.
Recommendation
Staff recommends that the City Council approve the administrative
subdivision request by Joe Goetz to divide Lot 6, Block 2, Deerfield First
Addition, into a 3.24 acre parcel (Parcel A) and a 2.5 acre parcel (Parcel B)
with the following conditions:
1. Payment of Park Dedication Fees in the amount of $500 be paid to the
city prior to recording.
2. Payment of a Surface Water Management Impact Fee in the amount of
$61.80 be paid to the city prior to recording.
