2. The preliminary plat is approved in accordance with the plans received by the City on July 7,
2003, except as may be amended by this Resolution.
3. The development shall comply with all standards specified for the RSF-3 zoning district. No
variances are granted or implied.
4. The City will require a geotechnical evaluation prior to issuance of the building permit for
each lot.
5. The Subdivision Regulations specify that cul-de-sacs streets between 500 and 750 feet in
length provide a secondary access—unless the secondary access is waived by the City
Council. The proposed cul-de-sac street within this plat would be roughly 550 feet in length.
This resolution waives the secondary access requirement because there are no locations
available to provide a secondary access—due to the existing homes and wetlands that
surround the site.
6. Prior to recording the final plat, the developer shall pay the park dedication fees in lieu of land
dedication for eight additional dwelling units, pursuant to the Dedication Ordinance in effect
at the time of recording the final plat.
7. During the review of the final plat application, the City will analyze the alignment alternatives
for the city trail—and may require the applicant to realign the easternmost 50 feet of that trail
so it connects at the Juneau Lane/45th Avenue intersection to the north. If that segment of the
trail is not required to be realigned, the applicant shall provide a trail easement for the existing
city trail where it crosses over the eastern portion of proposed Lot 1.
8. Prior to filing the final plat, the applicant shall provide a 15 -foot wide conservation easement
along the north and west boundaries of the platin order to ensure that the significant trees
and underbrush within the easement area remain in perpetuity. No grading or tree removal
shall take place within this easement area. Additionally, any sales literature and official sales
documents shall inform prospective buyers of such conservation easement.
9. Compliance with the City's tree preservation regulations, in accordance with the approved
preliminary plat.
10. Prior to issuance of a grading permit, the applicant shall demonstrate compliance with all
erosion control ordinances and policies, as well as the approved tree preservation plan.
11. Prior to issuance of building permits, permanent wetland buffer monument signs must be
installed pursuant to ordinance requirements.
12. For purposes of determining yard setbacks for "Lot 1" of the proposed plat, the south and
east lot lines shall be considered its front lot lines, the west lot line shall be considered its side
lot line, and the north lot line shall be considered its rear lot line.

13. Private driveway access to 44th Place North shall be restricted from the lot to the south,
located at 4387 Juneau Lane North.
14. The builders may be required to custom design the homes within this plat, so that the homes
fit within the developable area of the lots after the conservation easement and all applicable
building setbacks, wetland buffer setbacks, and tree preservation regulations are applied.
15. Standard Conditions:
a. Compliance with the City Engineer's Memorandum.
b. Removal of all hazardous trees from the property at the owner's expense.
c. Street names shall comply with the City Street Naming System.
d. Compliance with Policy Resolution 79-80 regarding minimum floor elevations for new
structures on sites adjacent to, or containing any open storm water drainage facility.
e. No building permits shall be issued until the final plat is filed and recorded with Hennepin
County.
f. Location and number of fire hydrants shall be approved by the Fire Division.
g. Submittal of fire flow data with the final plat.

claims made by itself and third parties for damages sustained or costs incurred resulting
from plat approval and development. The Developer shall indemnify the City and its
officers, employees, and agents for all costs, damages, or expenses which the City may pay
or incur in consequence of such claims, including attorneys' fees.
