Information
Title:
Introduce Ordinance #20-01 #21-01 Amending City Code Sections 117-111 (R-1 Residential District) and 117-112 (R-2 Residential District) Clarifying Sub-districts based on Lot Size
Purpose/Background:
The purpose of this case is administrative/housekeeping in nature. Based on recent applications of the newly created sub-districts allowing 65 foot wide lots and 50 foot wide lots 'by right', Staff is proposing a restructuring of City Code as it pertains to detached single-family lots.
- Standards for 80 foot wide lot and 65 foot wide lots remain unchanged
- Moves 50 foot wide lots from R-2 Residential District to R-1 Residential District
- Consistent with actual net density
- Standards remain unchanged
- Clarifies that accessory structures are allowed
- Moves 40 foot wide lots from R-3 Residential District to R-2 Residential District
- Consistent with actual net density
- Standards remain unchanged
- Clarifies that R-3 Residential District is reserved for higher-density developments
Notification:
The Planning Commission held a Public Hearing on January 7, 2021. The Public Hearing Notice was properly advertised in the Anoka County Union-Herald, the City's Official Newsletter. A notice is not required for this step.
Observations/Alternatives:
As noted above, there are no policy implications in this ordinance. This is a housekeeping amendment to establish a more logical structure and naming scheme for detached single-family districts. These recommended amendments are based on actual experience applying recent code changes.
Funding Source:
This case is being handled as part of normal Staff duties.
Recommendation:
The Planning Commission recommends that the City Council adopt Ordinance #20-01 #21-01.
Action:
Motion to introduce Ordinance #20-01 #21-01.
