A development pattern in harmony with the objectives of the Comprehensive Plan. The proposed 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. b. Innovations in development that address growing demands for all styles of economic expansion, greater variety in type, design, architectural standards, and siting of structures through the conservation and more efficient use of land in such developments. By allowing a variety of lot sizes and residential neighborhoods, Watermark is able to provide a mix of market driven housing products and single level living that appeals to entry-level home buyers as well as aging populations. The flexible site design also allows for the construction of an extensive greenway corridor and storm water management system. c. The preservation and enhancement of desirable site characteristics such as existing vegetation, natural topography and geologic features and the prevention of soil erosion. The site has limited natural desirable site characteristics. Topography is flat agricultural land with poorly drained soils, drain tile and limited minimal significant tree stands. Existing low functioning wetlands will be enhanced and restored into an extensive greenway corridor and storm water management system. d. A creative use of land and related physical development which allows a phased and orderly transition of varying land uses in close proximity to each other. Development will start from the south where public utilities exist and extend north. The development transitions from the existing commercial property on the south boundary north to compact townhome and 44' single family neighborhood to larger lot neighborhoods. e. An efficient use of land resulting in smaller networks of utilities and streets thereby lowering development costs and public investments. 2 Allowing lot widths to be based on the specific housing product versus a one size fits all lot width provides an efficient use of land and lowers development and public costs. f. Promotion of a desirable and creative environment that might be prevented through the strict application of City zoning and subdivision regulations. Watermark will create a natural greenway corridor and regional stormwater conveyance system through the construction 40+ acres of lakes and storm ponds and 20+ acres of restored and created wetlands; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED by the City Council of The City of Lino Lakes hereby establishes that Watermark shall be developed in accordance with the following: ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN STANDARDS 1.
