Data confidence

A plain-language status — not a score. This page documents 4 facts from public records (one of them the 4 building rules cited to Woodbury City Code §24-134(f)(7)–(9)), estimates 2 more from models, relies on 2 unverified screening defaults, carries 1 rule sourced as delegated to the watershed district (municipal floor only), and lists 8 things to verify before you rely on it.

What we know
4 documented signals (building rules (cited), parcel boundary, jurisdiction, market status) — each carries its source and as-of date below.
What we estimate
2 modeled values (preliminary setback envelope, sewer proximity (estimated)) — modeled, not measured; treat as screening only.
What needs verification
8 items only a professional or the city can confirm — the full checklist is below.
Rules basis
Woodbury single-family residential (R-4, typical) — Woodbury City Code §24-134(f) (Municode Supp. 48, updated 2026-07-06; codified through Ord. 2078) + regional screening defaults for rules not yet loaded — City values shown are for the typical single-family district — per-parcel zoning is not ingested, so confirm your parcel’s specific zoning district with the city. Some rules shown use a regional screening default — the Woodbury ordinance is not yet loaded for them; verify locally before relying on any number.

Plain-English summary

This parcel in Woodbury sits in the South Washington County Schools school district. Part of the parcel is mapped in a FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area, so flood insurance and elevation requirements likely apply. Wetland indicators overlap the parcel in screening data — a field delineation is the next step, since mapped lines are not legal boundaries. On utilities, water service is undocumented and sewer service is inside the regional service area — a connection is not confirmed until the city or utility confirms it, so budget time to verify location and fees. We do not yet have data on terrain and water service — on this page, unknown never means "no concern."

What we estimate

Modeled or preliminary — useful for screening, not decisions.

  • Preliminary setback envelopeWhether this lot has a buildable envelope depends on which edge fronts the street, and its edges are not classified yet. Under the smallest setback the rules apply (10 ft) it holds ≈ 120,720 sq ft, about 69.2% of the lot; with the largest (35 ft) applied to every edge instead, none. The true figure is somewhere between those two, and neither is a measurement of this lot's yards — a survey and edge classification decide it. Based on Woodbury single-family residential (R-4, typical) — Woodbury City Code §24-134(f) (Municode Supp. 48, updated 2026-07-06; codified through Ord. 2078); confirm your parcel's zoning. Conditional setback unresolved: front/rear/corner side become 50 ft where the lot abuts a collector or arterial street (§24-134(f)(7)–(9)) — this parcel's abutting street could not be classified, so the base value is shown.

    55% confidence

What you must verify

Professional and municipal confirmations before you build.

  • Boundary survey (a recorded GIS boundary is not a survey)
  • Wetland delineation by a certified delineator
  • Soil borings & septic feasibility (if no municipal sewer)
  • Utility connection points, capacity and SAC/WAC fees with the city or utility
  • Permit eligibility and any overlay/PUD conditions with the jurisdiction
  • Easements, covenants and title work
  • Final setbacks and buildable area per the current local ordinance
  • Actual construction cost from builder quotes

Flood mapping

Concern

Part of this parcel is mapped in a FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area (zone A); flood insurance and elevation requirements likely apply — confirm with the city and a surveyor.

The details

Builder view: FEMA zone A (SFHA) per current NFHL data; floodplain ordinance and base flood elevation requirements apply — elevation certificate and local floodplain review required.

Wetland indicators

Concern

Mapped wetland/public-water indicators overlap this parcel. This is a screening result, not a confirmed legal boundary — a wetland delineation is recommended before design or purchase decisions.

The details

Builder view: NWI/PWI overlap present — a SCREENING constraint, not a delineated boundary; a wetland delineation is recommended before design or purchase decisions. WCA/LGU review applies if impacts are proposed.

Sanitary sewer

Info Modeled

Public utilities may be available nearby; connection location & fees require confirmation

Uses a regional screening default — the local ordinance is not yet loaded. Verify locally.

The details

Builder view: sanitary sewer: inside the regional wastewater service area (MUSA) — membership is a planning designation, NOT a connection at the boundary; timing unknown, confirm staging with the city.

  • Sewer service state: Inside planned regional wastewater service area — not a sewer connection
  • Service-area membership is modeled from regional GIS, not utility records.
  • Without a municipal sewer connection, an on-site septic system (SSTS) is required, including a primary and alternate drainfield site (regional/state screening default (unverified) — not the local ordinance; verify with the jurisdiction).

Setback & frontage envelope

Info
The answer is somewhere in the shaded band — 69.2% of the lot at its widest. Neither end is a measurement of this lot; the paragraph below says what would settle it.

Whether this lot has a buildable envelope depends on which edge fronts the street, and its edges are not classified yet. Under the smallest setback the rules apply (10 ft) it holds ≈ 120,720 sq ft, about 69.2% of the lot; with the largest (35 ft) applied to every edge instead, none. The true figure is somewhere between those two, and neither is a measurement of this lot's yards — a survey and edge classification decide it. Based on Woodbury single-family residential (R-4, typical) — Woodbury City Code §24-134(f) (Municode Supp. 48, updated 2026-07-06; codified through Ord. 2078); confirm your parcel's zoning. Conditional setback unresolved: front/rear/corner side become 50 ft where the lot abuts a collector or arterial street (§24-134(f)(7)–(9)) — this parcel's abutting street could not be classified, so the base value is shown.

The details

Builder view: Uniform inward buffer: EMPTY at the largest applicable setback (35 ft), ≈ 120,720 sq ft (69.2% of lot) at the smallest (10 ft). The uniform buffer at the largest setback under-approximates the true asymmetric envelope and the one at the smallest over-approximates it, so an empty result at the largest supports no claim on its own. Resolved setbacks: front 35 ft, side 10 ft, rear 35 ft, corner side 20 ft. Based on Woodbury single-family residential (R-4, typical) — Woodbury City Code §24-134(f) (Municode Supp. 48, updated 2026-07-06; codified through Ord. 2078); confirm your parcel's zoning. Conditional setback unresolved: front/rear/corner side become 50 ft where the lot abuts a collector or arterial street (§24-134(f)(7)–(9)) — this parcel's abutting street could not be classified, so the base value is shown.

No underlying measurement on file for this signal.

  • Neither bound is a measurement of this lot: no edge is classified as front, side or rear, so the smaller figure over-states and the larger under-states.
