Two certified survey maps (CSMs) creating zero lot line lots at existing two-family lots / residences, 2240 / 2242 Sacia Lane and 2312 / 2314 Sacia Lane – Roger / Jane Roenfanz.  Darnold noted that both lots being subdivided have existing two-family residences.  Yoerg asked if the lot areas meet minimum requirements.  Darnold noted that the minimum lot size is 4,000 sq. ft.; and the smallest lot proposed is over 5,000 sq. ft.

Darnold commented that each unit has a separate sewer and water service.  Darnold recommended approval.

 

Yoerg asked if the plan commission can require an agreement to be filed with the register of deeds to address access to sewer and water lines for maintenance.  Darnold stated that can be required.

 

Moved by Gilbert, seconded by Yoerg to approve and recommend approval to the Common Council of the two certified survey maps proposed by Roger and Jane Roenfanz to create zero lot line lots at 2240 / 2242 Sacia Lane and 2312 and 2314 Sacia Lane with the condition that an agreement be executed by abutting units / owners which shall be filed at the St. Croix County Register of Deeds office addressing access for the access, repair and maintenance of utilities.  Motion carried.

 

Final plat (Phase I), Hills of Troy, 62 one-family lots and 8 outlots, Town of Troy, NE1/4, Section 10 and N1/2, Section 11, T28N, R19W (extraterritorial plat review area) – Troy Development.  Note:  City of Hudson review area includes the approximate westerly 38 acres; outlot 7, lot 62, part of outlot 6 and part of lot 61 (existing residence).  Darnold reviewed the general location and noted that the preliminary plat was approved by the plan commission in late June, 2005.  Darnold noted that final plat is in conformance with the approved preliminary plat and recommended approval.  Yoerg noted that the plan commission approved this preliminary plat but voiced some concerns on the use of individual septic systems.  Bieraugel questioned if sufficient area is being provided for individual septic systems.  Darnold commented that St. Croix County zoning department does review the plats and administers the sanitary code.  Gilbert noted that the use of a mound system is more common.

Bieraugel asked about the proposal of one acre lots.  Lilja noted that 40% of the land is placed in conservation easements, and five additional lots are permitted due to transfer development rights which sets aside land in another location.
