RESOLUTION NO. 16-50
APPROVING A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT FOR WATERMARK A
DEVELOPMENT LOCATED IN THE NORTHWEST QUADRANT OF
I -35E AND CSAH 14/MAIN STREET
WHEREAS, Mattamy Minneapolis, LLC has requested a land use guide plan amendment to
change the northwestern 10 acres of the Watermark development from Urban Reserve to Mixed
Use; and
WHEREAS, Mattamy Minneapolis, LLC has also requested a change to the Utility Stage Plan
Map Amendment to bring the northwestern 10 acres from Stage 3 (post 2030 service area) to the
Stage 1B service area; and
WHEREAS, the 10 acre parcel is depicted on Exhibit A attached herein and legally described as
follows:
The North 330 feet of the South 3/4 of the Southwest 1/4 of the Southwest 1/4 of Section
12, Township 31, Range 22, Anoka County, Minnesota; and
`.. WHEREAS, the Planning and Zoning Board has reviewed the requested amendments at duly
called Public Hearings on April 13, 2016 and May 11, 2016 and recommends approval.
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED by The City Council of The City of Lino Lakes
makes the following findings of fact based on the criteria outlined on page 3-26 of the 2030
Comprehensive Plan:
FINDINGS OF FACT
a. The proposed development must be located within both the current and the next ten year
staging area, or five-year phase, or located adjacent to the current staging area.
The majority of the 372 acre development is classified as Mixed Use and is in either the Stage IA
or 1B planned service area. The requested amendment is simply to incorporate the northwestern
10 acres into the project by reclassifying it as Mixed Use in the Stage IB service area like the
other adjacent land in the Watermark project. Adding this site to the project is consistent with
the purpose of the Mixed Use classification, which is intended "to accommodate a mix of
residential, retail, and office uses either within one building, structure or development.
Residential development may include higher density housing options."
b. The proposed development must be master planned. Small, piecemeal developments do
not justify redefining the ten-year staging area, or five-year phase.
1
This reclassification will allow this 10 -acre parcel to be master planned with the other 372 acres
of the Watermark project.
c. The proposed, master planned project must provide discernable public values.
Per the Comprehensive Plan, Goal #1, Policy #5 of the Land Use Plan defines the following
discernable public values:
i. Preserving open space, providing park dedication and trails, and/or providing
stormwater management areas, in excess of minimum standards to implement the
Resource Management System Plan, as amended, and Rice Creek Watershed
District's Lino Lakes Resource Management Plan, as amended
ii. Using "Green" building and low impact development techniques
iii. Restoring/enhancing ecological systems
iv. Ensuring long term natural resource stewardship funding
v. Managing stormwater using natural filtration and other ecologically based
approaches
vi. Providing life -cycle and affordable housing
vii. Diversifying the tax base to lessen the tax burden on residential properties
viii. Providing infrastructure that benefits community beyond the project site that would
otherwise not be financially feasible.
Watermark PUD master planned residential development is consistent with the goals and
`., policies of the comprehensive plan in regards to resource management, land use, housing,
transportation and utilities. The development upholds the City's public values by creating a
multi -functional open space greenway corridor integrated with the stormwater conveyance
system, wetland management and trails. Watermark is consistent with mixed-use land and
density requirements and provides a variety of market driven housing products that support life-
cycle housing. Safe transportation corridors and public utilities also serve the development.
d. Adequate infrastructure must be available to support development. Appropriate analysis
will determine if adequate infrastructure is available and what utility extensions and
transportation improvements are required to support new development.
The City Engineer has reviewed the infrastructure and has determined adequate infrastructure
exists or will be provided as part of this master planned community.
e. There must be a commitment that the development will pay its proportionate share of
infrastructure improvement costs associated with development.
The developer has paid the previously assessed share of the I -35E Interchange project ($1.6
million) and will be responsible for construction of all new infrastructures within the project.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED by The City Council of The City of Lino Lakes that the Land
Use Guide Plan Amendment is approved to reclassify the northwest 10 acres from Urban
Reserve to Mixed Use to be consistent with the remainder of the project; and
2
L.. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED by The City Council of the City of Lino Lakes that the Utility
Sewer Staging Plan Amendment is approved to reclassify the northwestern 10 acres from the

Watermark Master Planned Residential Community
i. Consider Resolution No. 16-50 Approving
Comprehensive Plan Amendment
ii. Consider First Reading of Ordinance No. 04-16 Rezoning
Property from R, Rural and R -BR, Rural -Business
Reserve to PUD, Planned Unit Development

Development Stage Plan/Preliminary Plat
4/5 (Item i) and 3/5 (Item ii and iii)
Mattamy Partnership has submitted a land use application for PUD Development
Stage/Preliminary Plat review. The proposed development is a master planned residential
community located in the northwest quadrant of I -35E and CSAH 14/Main Street. It contains
12 parcels totaling approximately 372 gross acres and consists of a residential density mix of
706 single family lots and 165 townhome units totaling 871 housing units. The proposed
development is called as Watermark.
The Land Use Applications are:
• Comprehensive Plan Amendment for one 10 acre parcel on the northwest corner
o Land use guidance from Urban Reserve to Mixed Use
o Sanitary District 3 to 1B
• Rezone property from R, Rural and R -BR, Rural -Business Reserve to PUD, Planned
Unit Development
• PUD Development Stage Plan/Preliminary Plat
BACKGROUND
The Planning & Zoning staff reports dated April 13, 2016 and May 11, 2016 detail the project
(attached). Overall, Watermark is consistent with the comprehensive plan and compliant with
the AUAR and city ordinances.
Comprehensive Plan Amendment
The applicant is requesting approval of two minor amendments to the Comprehensive Plan:
1. Land Use Guide Plan Map Amendment. The northwestern 10 acres of the development
is a parcel that is guided Urban Reserve in the Comprehensive Plan. The applicant is
requesting that this property be re -guided to Mixed Use to be consistent with the
remainder of the project. This piece was not part of the previous Hardwood Creek
project and consequently was not included in the original Mixed Use designation.
2. Utility Stage Plan Map Amendment. The southern 2/3 of the property is located in the
Stage lA Planned Service Area (2008-2015) and the northern 1/3 of the property is
located in the Stage 1B service area. The applicant is requesting a map amendment to
modify the map for the northwestern 10 acres from Stage 3 (post 2030 service area) to
the Stage 1B service area.
Council Resolution No. 16-50 details the findings of fact regarding the comprehensive plan
amendment.
Rezoning
The property is currently zoned R, Rural and R -BR, Rural -Business Reserve and shall be
rezoned to PUD -Planned Unit Development. Council Ordinance No. 04-16 details the findings
of fact regarding the rezoning.
The rezoning is consistent with the Zoning Ordinance and Comprehensive Plan. In order to
provide maximum PUD flexibility and adapt to changing market demands, detailed civil,
grading and landscaping plans and architectural design standards, floor plans, elevations,
exterior materials, styles and color packages will be reviewed and approved with each PUD
Final Plan/Final Plat.
PUD Development Stage Plan/Preliminary Plat
The PUD Development Stage Plan/Preliminary Plat is consistent with the goals and policies of
the comprehensive plan. The preliminary plat complies with the subdivision ordinance.
Council Resolution No. 16-51 details the findings of fact regarding the PUD Development
Stage Plan/Preliminary Plat.

The site is referred to as Hardwood Creek in the City's Comprehensive Plan and is guided for
mixed use that allows for both commercial and/or residential uses. It requires a residential
development at 3.0 to 4.5 dwelling units per net acre, with no less than 2/3 of the residential
area reserved for low density residential development.
The net density is 3.40 units per acre and over 80% of the site is reserved for low density
residential development. This is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan's guided land use and
density.
PUD Final Plan/Final Plat
Watermark is anticipated to be a 10+ year buildout with multiple phases and plats of
development. In order to provide maximum PUD flexibility and adapt to changing market
demands, detailed civil, grading and landscaping plans and architectural design standards, floor
plans, elevations, exterior materials, styles, color packages and HOA documents will be
reviewed and approved with each PUD Final Plan/Final Plat.
One (1) Master PUD Development Agreement for the entire development and individual
Development Agreements with each PUD Final Plan/Final Plat phase of development will be
executed. One (1) Master HOA document and sub-HOA's with each PUD Final Plan/Final
Plat phase of development will also be executed.
A land use application for each PUD Final Plan/Final Plat for Watermark shall be required. At
such time, the developer shall enter into a Development Contract and other documents as the
City deems necessary.
RECOMMENDATION
The Planning & Zoning Board held a public hearing on April 13, 2016 and continued the
hearing to the May 11, 2016 meeting. The Planning & Zoning Board voted 4-2 in favor of the
Comprehensive Plan Amendment, 6-0 in favor of the rezoning and 5-1 in favor of the PUD
3
Development Stage Plan/Preliminary Plat. The "no" votes were due to the lack of a
commercial component in the development.

and PUD Development Stage Plan/Preliminary Plat for Watermark subject to the conditions
listed in Resolution No. 16-51.
