Review
The applicant is requesting review of the preliminary plat of Good Counsel Meadows subdivision.
The subject property is described as part of Outlot C, School Sisters of Notre Dame Subdivision, a portion of vacated Ruth Street as shown in the Subdivision of Outlots Dukes Second Addition – Highwood, part of Outlot B, School Sisters of Notre Dame Subdivision, part of Lots 1, 2, 17, 18, Block 13, Shaw’s Subdivision, City of Mankato, Blue Earth County (Blue Earth County PID R010905379004, R010905379005, etal).
The applicant is proposing a development that would include 8 lots in Block 1 that would be later developed into single-family homes. Outlot A would serve as the location for the storm water pond for the development. Outlot B is not planned for development at this time, and should future development be considered, replatting of this lot will be required. Block 2 contains 3 lots, which range in size from .37 acres to .84 acres.
The lots on Block 1 would be served by access that would connect to North 4th Street at the intersection of East Ruth Street and East Mabel Street. The applicant will need to provide a refuse and snow removal plan for both the accessway and sidewalk serving the development.
