AGENDA

CITY OF MOSCOW


PUBLIC WORKS/FINANCE COMMITTEE


Monday, December 11, 2006
3:00 p.m. - 4:30 p.m.


CITY HALL COUNCIL CHAMBERS


206 East 3rd Street, 2nd Floor 

1.      Approval of Minutes November 27, 2006 - Stephanie Kalasz

 

2.      Disbursement Report for November 2006 - Don Palmer

 

3.      Waiver of Public Improvements - Lande Lane - Dean Weyen

Colin Johnson is the owner of Lots 1 & 2, Block 'B' of Christopher's
Crossing Addition.  A cul-de-sac was originally platted at the north end
of Lande Lane which was to access these two lots.  The original
development phase of Christopher's Crossing included all of the public
improvements of the subdivision except this cul-de-sac and these two
lots.  Once development of the cul-de-sac proceeded with serious
consideration, it became apparent that the topography in its vicinity
precluded reasonable design and economical construction.  In 2003, City
staff reviewed the property owners request to consolidate the two lots
into one, waive the construction of the platted cul-de-sac and to allow
access to the one new lot with a driveway from the end of the existing
Lande Lane.   Public Works and Community Development offered some
general support of the request and wrote a letter setting forth staff
requirements of that proposal.  The letter is attached hereto.  An
alternate engineering design for improvements to the northerly end of
Lande Lane as set forth in the 2003 letter has been approved by City
Engineering.   Mr. Johnson is requesting waiver of the requirement to
construct a standard cul-de-sac.

 

      ACTION:  Recommend approval of waiver or take such other action
deemed appropriate.

 

4.      Johnson Lot Consolidation - Lande Lane - Andrew Ackerman

Colin Johnson owns two parcels of property, Lots 1 & 2, Block B of
Christopher Crossings Subdivision. The proposed lot consolidation would
rectify the fact that the two lots are currently not accessible and are
platted in such a manner as to require future development on the lots to
extend Lande Lane and construct a standard cul-de-sac per engineering
requirements. Based on review in the field by both the Community
Development Department and Engineering Department, it was determined
that in order to make the lots economically viable, the best alternative
was to require a lot consolidation in exchange for a partial waiver of
the public improvements (specifically the requirement for the owner to
construct the cul-de-sac). The consolidation would achieve the objective
of limiting future development beyond a single residential structure,
allow for the public access pathway to be constructed, and would meet
all the minimum zoning requirements for lot dimensions and street
frontage in the Moderate Density Single-Family Residential (R-2) Zoning
District.

 

      ACTION:  Recommend approval of the lot consolidation or take such
other action deemed appropriate.
