Pine Tree Plaza June 22, 2000 Page 2 This subdivision will clean up an issue with the Bike path along US 40. Currently, the path runs across the subject property. It was installed across the private property without the owners knowledge or permission, accordingly staff has agreed with the applicant to provide special consideration of this issue toward the open space requirements. It is proposed that a public access easement be provided for the path. From a liability , perspective, it may be preferable to dedicate that land to the Town of Fraser. Engineering As noted above, 'engineering review'is not'yefcomplete. Stilffis comfOrtable proceeding - without completion of this review as the site presents no unusual challenges. Final engineering review and approval will be required prior to final plat and development permit approval and preliminary plat approval does not guarantee final plat approval. The most likely change that may result from engineering review is revision to the size of the detention facility along the northeast portion of the site. I have discussed this at . length with both the applicant and their engineer who understand the ramifications of this issue. Any significant changes may require revision to the parking layout, or worst case, reduction in building size. Both the Town Engineer and I are comfortable with the preliminary drainage information provided to date. Recommendation The Planning Commission and staff recommend approval of the preliminary plat for Pine Tree Plaza Fraser. Accordingly, a suggested motion for approval is provided for your consideration. I move that we recommend approval of the prelimilUlry plat for Pine Tree Plaza Fraser subject to the following conditions: Compliance with the requirements of the Town Engineer. Provision of a public access easement for the Bike Path. . ýÿ I MAJOR SUlBDWllSllON-lPREUMllNARJf PILAT D lPllNJE TREJE PLAZA - FRASIER TRACTS A-2 AND B-2, -CONDOMINIUM DECLARATIONS RECORDED AT LOCATED IN SECTION 28, TOWNSHIP 1 SOUTH, RECEPTION NO. .

That satisfactQry ,proof has been presented to the BQard of Adjustment shQwing that the present or proposed situation Qf a requested buil~ing, , .. structure, or use is reasQnably necessary for the convenience Qr welfare Qf the public. 2. That the variance which is requested WQuld not authorize any use other than uses enumerated as a use by right of the district. . ýÿ . ,.. " . 3. That an unnecessary hardship to the owner would be shown to occur if the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance were literally followed. 4. That the circumstances found to constitute a hardship either were not created by the owner, or were in existence at the time of passage of the Zoning Ordinance, and cannot be reasonably corrected. 5. That the variance would not injure the value, use, or prevent the proper access of lighted air to the adjacent properties. 6. That the variance would not be out of harmony with the intent and purpose of the Zoning Ordinance. The variances requested include a reduction in the sideyard setback requirements and the minimum lot size requirements. The Taylors are requesting these variances to allow for a more uniform lot geometry. The same end result (two lots and two structures) could be accommodated without a variance, however, the lot geometry would be very irregular. I will have drawings for presentation and consideration at the board meeting. RECOMMENDATION At this time, the action requested from the Town Board is a recommendation to be forwarded to the Board of Adjustment. This action would not influence any action on the . final plat request. Due to the fact that this subdivision results only from the needs of the lender, the Taylors desire to simplify lot configuration, and the request being consistent with the intent of the Zoning Ordinance, staff supports the request. The following is a suggested motion: I move that we forward a recommendation for approval of the Taylor variance requests to the Board of Adjustment. . . - ~ - , , , . . . . . . . .
