APPROVAL OF A YIELD PLAN AND SKETCH CONSERVATION SUBDIVISION FOR
THE SCHMITT PROPERTY, LOCATED IN THE SE ¼ OF SECTION 18 (TAX KEY
NOS. 2232.980 AND 2232.981)
WHEREAS, On February 17, 2004, a Yield Plan and sketch Conservation Subdivision
was submitted by Gayle Schmitt for a subdivision known as Heather’s Way located in
the SE ¼ of Section 18, and
WHEREAS, The Yield Plan consists of approximately 30 acres, proposes 10 residential
parcels, and does not provide for a common stormwater management area, and
WHEREAS, The sketch Conservation Subdivision consists of approximately 30 acres,
and proposes 14 residential parcels, and provides for common stormwater management
outlots and open spaces totaling approximately 50.11% of the land area, and the COPD
regulations would permit 3 “bonus” parcels by right subject to meeting certain code
provisions, and require a minimum of 50% open space, and
WHEREAS, Said property is zoned A Agricultural District, and a rezoning to RCE /
COPD would be required in order to implement the sketch preliminary plat, and
WHEREAS, The 2010 Comprehensive Plan depicts this area for agriculture and open
lands at a density not to exceed .4 dwelling units per acre, and the Yield Plan illustrates
a maximum density of 0.33 dwelling units per acre and sketch Conservation Subdivision
illustrates a maximum density of 0.46 dwelling units per acre, and
WHEREAS, Said parcels will be serviced by private sewer and public water service, and
WHEREAS, The 2010 Street System Plan depicts Hillendale Drive to have an 80 foot
wide ultimate width, and the proposal appears to be consistent with the Plan, and
WHEREAS, wetlands and woodlands exist on the property and are depicted on the
sketch Conservation Subdivision to be preserved as common open space, and the
Conservation Plan depicts a portion of these wetlands and woodlands as a high
acquisition priority, and
WHEREAS, The plat is required to provide on-site stormwater management as required
by Chapter 34, and the sketch Conservation Subdivision accommodates this
requirement.
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, That the Plan Commission approves of a yield plan
and sketch Conservation Subdivision for the Schmitt property for a subdivision known as
Heather’s Way located in the SE ¼ of Section 18 and will be receptive to the submittal of
a preliminary plat of the Conservation Subdivision.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That preliminary plat submittal should accompany an
updated yield plan that conforms to the A Agricultural zoning district and makes
arrangements for stormwater management.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That a maximum 3 bonus residential parcels are
permitted subject to Plan Commission and Common Council findings that the Final Plat
meets the requirements for the receipt of said bonus parcels.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That the Conservation Subdivision shall have a minimum
of 50% open space in outlots to be owned and maintained by an incorporated owners
association, and petitioner shall provide area calculations concurrent with Preliminary
Plat submittal.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That the Plan Commission will be receptive to the receipt
of a rezoning petition to RCE / COPD Suburban Estate District with Conservation
Planned Development Overlay District, being a recommended maximum residential
parcel size of 60,000 square feet and a recommended maximum average parcel width of
150 feet.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That the Conservation Commission shall address the
need for any outlots at the time of preliminary plat.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That the common open space areas shall be subject to a
Management Plan which shall be executed concurrent with the Final Plat.
