Lino Lakes 2040 Comprehensive Plan Update Planning & Zoning Board re: Winter Property 1 December 13, 2017 Date: December 4, 2017 for December 13, 2017 Meeting To: Lino Lakes Planning & Zoning Board From: Anne Hurlburt, Planner Landform Professional Services Subject: Land Use Plan Request, Winter Property Mr. Lester J. Winter has submitted a request that the city consider a change to the draft future land use maps for his 139 acres located east of I-35E. His letter, attached, requests that the area be given a “Mixed Use” classification rather than the current “Industrial” designation. He cites the configuration of wetlands on the property and the abundance of industrial land. He believes that “Mixed Use” would give more options for development. He notes that the land has been assessed for road improvements. The Planning & Zoning Board should to review Mr. Winter’s request and make a recommendation for the draft land use plan. Site Information This request affects four parcels, totaling 139.46 acres including about 47.22 acres of wetlands. Most of the wetlands are in the north/northwestern portion of the property.

The half mile of street that borders the site is street is currently paved along the southern two-thirds, and gravel along the northern one-third of the frontage. The transportation plan calls for the future extension of Otter Lake Road north from County Road 14 to 80th Street as a new major collector road to serve the industrial area. The Utility Staging Plan for 2030 shows this area as Stage 2A—utility service to be provided in the first half of the second decade of the 20-year plan. The draft Utility Staging Plan for 2040 changes this designation to Stage 1-A, making the area eligible for utility extensions in the 2018 to 2025-time frame. Water and sewer will be extended to the north from County Road 14, as the land to the south of the site develops and demand warrants. The adjacent properties to the north and the south in the City of Lino Lakes are currently designated for future industrial use, and are shown in the same classification by the draft 2040 land use plan.
