<br />Density <br /> The following chart details the density calculations using Met Council’s formula: <br />Gross Area (acres)24.98 <br />Wetlands & Water Bodies(1.56) <br />Public Parks & Open Space0.00 <br />Arterial ROW(0.78) <br />Other (Utility Transmission Easement)(0.63) <br />Other (Wetland Buffer Area)(1.06) <br />Other (Floodplain Mitigation)(2.63) <br />Net Area (acres)18.32 <br /># of Units86 <br />Gross Density (units/acre)3.44 <br />Net Density (units/acre)4.69 <br />The site is guided medium density residential which requires 4.0-6.0 units per net acre. <br />The proposed development is 4.69 units per net acre, which is consistent with land use <br />and density requirements. <br />Growth Management Strategy <br /> Page 3-17 of the 2040 Comprehensive Plan details the City’s Growth Management <br /> Strategy. The strategy works in conjunction with the City’s utility staging plan. <br />The City will plan to accommodate an annual average of 230 units per year over each 5- <br />year phasing period not to exceed 345 units in any one year.

This is less than the allowed 230 unit <br />annual allocation. <br />The proposed 86 lot development would be consistent with the growth management <br />strategy. <br />Current Zoning and Land Use <br />Current Zoning R, Rural <br />Current Land Use Agricultural and Rural Residential <br />Future Land Use per <br />Medium Density Residential <br />2040 Comp Plan <br />Utility Staging Area Stage 1B (2025-2030) <br />4 <br /> <br />
