• A • CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM lE STAFF ORIGINATOR: Michael Grochala MEETING DATE: March 11, 2013 TOPIC: Consideration of Resolution No. 13 -30 Extension of Time for Preserve at Lino Lakes VOTE REQUIRED: 3/5 INTRODUCTION In 2006 the City Council approved The Preserve, a residential subdivision. This approval included Ordinance 08 -06, a Rezone to Planned Unit Development (PUD) and Resolution 06- 137 approving a PUD Development Stage Plan/Preliminary Plat. The site has not been developed, but the owner is currently pursuing final plat approval. BACKGROUND A PUD Development Stage Plan must be followed by the Final Plan application within twelve months under the zoning ordinance. Likewise, a final plat must be submitted within one year of the preliminary plat approval under the subdivision regulations. The City extended the deadline with Resolutions 08 -109, 09 -77, 10 -34, 10 -86, 11 -30, 11 -85, 12 -14 and 12 -87. The project has not met these deadlines due to the widespread slowdown of development in the region. The current submittal deadline is April 1, 2013, and the recommendation is to extend it to October 1, 2013. The City is in receipt of a Final Plat application and anticipate review by City Council in April. Preservation of open space on this site is an important step for implementing the City's larger greenway vision. The site includes a high value natural resource area. Permanent open space behind most lots extends for hundreds of feet and will be in a permanent conservation easement. The approval included a restoration and management plan for wetlands and other open space. RECOMMENDATION Approve Resolution No. 13 -30 granting an extension for submitting the PUD Final Plan/Final Plat for Preserve at Lino Lakes. ATTACHMENTS 1. Resolution Number 13 -30
