<br /> “The 17 acre Woolan Park Wetland Bank, located north of Main Street and west of Lake <br />Drive, is part of a larger 60 acre wetland complex. Opportunities to protect and restore <br /> the balance of the wetland should be evaluated with any adjacent development.” <br />The proposed development is adjacent to this wetland complex. The site also contains <br />other wetlands and natural resources such as existing vegetation and trees and rare and <br />endangered species. The PUD, Planned Unit Development process provides the <br />opportunity to protect and enhance these public values (natural resources) with a <br />conservation subdivision and development standard flexibility. <br />Density <br /> Per the City’s 2040 Comprehensive Plan the site is guided for low density sewered <br />residential development which requires 1.6 to 3.0 units per net acre. The proposed net <br /> density is 2.76 units per acre which is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan’s guided <br />land use and density range. <br /> The following chart implements Met Council’s formula for calculating net density. <br />Gross Area (acres)75.42 <br />Wetlands & Water Bodies(31.02) <br />Public Parks & Open Space0.00 <br />Arterial ROW0.00 <br />Other (Utility Transmission Easement)(0.37) <br />Other (Wetland Buffer Area)(14.37) <br />Net Area (acres)29.66 <br /># of Units82 <br />Gross Density (units/acre)1.09 <br />Net Density (units/acre)2.76 <br />Zoning and Land Use <br />Current Zoning R-1, Single Family Residential <br />Current Land Use Vacant Residential <br />Future Land Use per 2040 <br />Low Density Residential <br />Comp Plan <br />Utility Staging Area Stage 1B (2025-2030) <br />4 <br /> <br />
