Page 4 of 4 952.426.0699 + ISGInc.com As shown by the above table, the project is above the maximum unit density by right, however, it is requested that the density of the Signature Gateway be extended to a maximum of 12 units/acre when the entire development is observed as a collection of all parcels. This request is within the maximum 15 units/acre allowed per the Signature Gateway definition, with City approval, within the 2040 Comprehensive Plan. PHASING AND LAND DEDICATION The proposed development will be executed in multiple phases. The initial phase will be the mutli-family residential buildings with an associated clubhouse, followed by the for-rent townhome units. With this initial phasing work, it is the intent of the development to construct the public improvements within the public right-of-way including paving, utilities, and storm water infrastructure necessary to serve the site. The right-of-way will be dedicated back to the City of Lino Lakes along with any public easements needed for utility extensions. Additionally, the regional stormwater management basins will be constructed which will also be utilized as re-use irrigation system for the common spaces throughout the PUD development. All the natural resources that exist Wilkinson Lake and the wetlands will be dedicated to the City as Public Lands, as a new amenity to the City. The newly constructed stormwater management ponds will also be dedicated to the City of Lino Lakes for Ownership and Maintenance, as a regional solution to stormwater for the development adjacent to Wilkinson Lake, in lieu of multiple smaller stormwater basins that incur additional maintenance cost to the City. All equipment, piping, etc required for the re-use irrigation system will be privately owned and maintained by the developer. The next phases of development will consist of the remaining town home units and retail/commercial development at the southeast corner of the site. Following that would be the construction of the senior living residential building. The final timing and phasing pattern will be coordinated with the City and will be dependent upon the market demand, but the general pattern will follow residential units first followed by the commercial use at the end. We appreciate the opportunity to bring this submittal package before the City of Lino Lakes Staff and the City of Lino Lakes Council. We look forward to work with the City to bring a development to the community that will make an impact and statement as the southeast entrance into the community.
