Application No. 86039
Applicant: Fred A. Reed
Location: 5451 Lyndale Avenue North
Request: Preliminary Plat
The applicant requests preliminary plat approval to subdivide into two lots the land
at the southwest corner of 55th Avenue North and Lyndale Avenue North. The land in
question is zoned R2 and is bounded on the north by 55th Avenue North, on the east by
Lyndale Avenue North, on the south by the Residential Alternatives Group Home, and
on the west by I-94. There is an existing single-family home on the corner lot at
5451 Lyndale Avenue North. A new single-family lot is being created on the south
side of 55th Avenue North, west of the existing residence and east of I-94.
The existing property contains two parcels which are portions of Lot 1, Block 1,
Bellevue Acres Addition which is an old plat in the southeast corner of the city.
The existing lots have metes and bounds legal descriptions. The westerly parcel,
adjacent to I-94 is a substandard remnant lot resulting from the highway
acquisition, which extends southward to the north line of the lot at 5445 Lyndale so
that the southerly portion lies west of the group home. The proposed legal
description is Lots 1 and 2, Block 1, Fred A. Reed Addition.
The following information summarizes the compliance of the proposed plat with
Zoning Ordinance requirements:
Lot Type *Width/Required Depth/Required Area/Required
Lot 1 Interior 60.49' 601 1 1 110' 8,437 s.f./7, 00 s.f.
s.f.
Lot 2 Corner 96.52' 75' 117.55' 110' 11,191 s.f./8,750 s.f.
s.f.
*measured at setback line
The proposed preliminary plat contains no topographic information and shows no
easements or utility locations. Staff have requested that this information be
provided no later than October 30th. There is no water or sewer in the short 55th
Avenue North cul-de-sac. The services to the westerly lot will have to come from
Lyndale Avenue North. The revised preliminary plat should show both existing and
proposed utility locations.
The survey submitted shows that the existing house is 40.2' from 55th Avenue North
and 301 from Lyndale Avenue North. The 30' setback is substandard but is not
affected by the proposed division and, therefore, is not an issue with this
application.
The existing garage is located just 3' from the proposed westerly side lot line and
meets the minimum setback required by the Zoning Ordinance.
Altogether, the proposed plat should be in order by Thursday's meeting. Approval
should be subject to at least the following conditions:
1. The final plat is subject to review and approval by the City
Engineer.

sanitary sewer service prior to release of the final plat for filing.
