CURRENT ZONING <br />The majority of the study area is zoned R, Rural, while a <br />portion of the southwestern corner is zoned PUD, Planned Unit <br />Development. <br />Rural - preserve open land for agricultural purposes, maintain <br />open space near urban areas, guide the development of <br />urban and rural areas, and support the economic preservation <br />of urban farms. <br />Planned Unit Development - provides flexibility from typical <br />zoning regulations to achieve public benefits that standard <br />zoning might not allow. PUDs are characterized by central <br />management, integrated planning and architecture, <br />enhanced urban amenities, preservation of natural open <br />spaces, and more economically efficient land use. <br />Zoning changes would need to occur to accommodate future <br />residential and commercial development. <br />FUTURE LAND USE <br />The 2040 Comprehensive Plan indicates land uses that include: <br />Low Density Residential - Land guided for residential <br />development with 1.6 to 3 dwelling units per acre. The city’s <br />future residential land use will predominantly be low-density <br />residential. <br />Medium Density Residential - Land guided for residential <br />development with 4 to 6 dwelling units per acre. <br />High Density Residential - Land guided for residential <br />development with 6 to 8 units per acre. <br />Planned Residential Commercial - Land guided for a mix of <br />residential, retail, and office uses to be incorporated within one <br />building, structure, or development. Residential development <br />in these areas may include higher-density housing options <br />with densities ranging from 8 to 10 units per acre. This land use <br />district provides opportunities for limited neighborhood-scale <br />supportive commercial uses that are accessory to residential. <br />Urban Reserve - Land guided for post-2040 development <br />to promote orderly and efficient expansion of future urban <br />services and to prevent premature expansion. <br />LAND USE AND ZONING <br />What does density look like in Lino Lakes? <br />High Medium Low Rural <br />Townhouses and <br />other multi- <br />family units <br />Single-family <br />homes <br />Townhouses and <br />single -family <br />homes <br />Lyngblomsten <br />Density <br />Type <br />Housing <br />types <br />Units per <br />acre <br />Example <br />in Lino <br />Lakes <br />Woods Edge <br />Townhomes <br />Nature’s Refuge <br />Single-family <br />homes and <br />farms <br />4th Ave <br />(Study Area) <br />8-10 units per acre <br />Residential/ <br />Commercial <br />6-8 units per acre 4-6 units per acre 1.6 -3 units per <br />acre 1 unit per 10 acres <br />Apartment <br />complexes and <br />commercial <br />Century <br />Farm <br />North (Stud <br />y Area) <br />LAND USE, DENSITY AND HOUSING TYPES <br />Planned Residential/Commercial <br />8-10 units per acre <br />High Density <br />6-8 units per acre <br />Medium Density <br />4-6 units per acre <br />Low Density <br />1.6-3 units per acre <br />LAND USE, DENSITY AND HOUSING TYPES <br />Planned Residential/Commercial <br />8-10 units per acre <br />High Density <br />6-8 units per acre <br />Medium Density <br />4-6 units per acre <br />Low Density <br />1.6-3 units per acre <br />Types of Residential Density with the Main Street Master Plan <br />MAPPING NORTHWEST MAIN - MAIN STREET MASTER PLAN <br />AUGUST 25, 2025 BACKGROUND | 10Page 64 of 171
