Roll Call was taken, members present: George Lindy, Sharon Lane, Brian Bourassa, Pam Taschuk, Ken Johnson, and Joe Schmidt. Also present were Marty Asleson, Park, Recreation and Forestry Coordinator, Linda Elliot, City Council Liaison, Barry Bernstein, Recreation Program Supervisor, and Sandie Wood, Recording Secretary. Not present was Amy Donlin. APPROVAL OF MINUTES: Sharon Lane made a motion to approve the September 7, Park Board meeting minutes and the minutes from the September 22, Goal Setting Session meeting. Ken Johnson seconded the motion and they were approved with no additions or corrections. OPEN MIKE: There was no one present to speak under Open Mike. CONCEPT REVIEW: Marshan Lake Townhomes - Mary Asleson gave an overview of the Marshan Lakes Townhomes Development. He explained that it is 29.9 acres with 23 .9 acres above the wetlands (buildable) development bounded by Aqua Lane to the South, Lake Drive to the West, Marshan Lake to the East, and the Shores of Marshan Lake to the North. There is a proposed 1.6 acre General Business zone on the Southwest corner of this development. The area is zones R-4, with 18 buildings, 12 townhomes per building for a total of 216 townhome units, or 9.04 units per acre. The Shores of Marshan Lake Park area M-2, is projected to have a total park area need of 5 acres. The Shores of Marshan Lake Development resulted in a 1.9 acre park dedication. The Shores of Marshan Lake Townhomes would add another 3 . 8 acres of contiguous park acreage for a total of 5.7 acres. This satisfies our need for park land in this area according to the Comprehensive Park Plan. The remaining part of Trail Segment 18 South to Aqua Lane would be completed as part of this project as well as a trail link to the adjoining presently dedicated land. The trail link addition to the south creates an access to the regional park via Aqua Lane. Marty stated that according to the park dedication ordinance, a development with a density of 9 or more units would need an 18% park land dedication. Accordingly, the acreage total or cash ^ dedication would be for 4 .30 acres. The remaining portion of the 4 .3 acres or .50 acres would be based on fair market value of the 1 CITY OF LINO LAKES PARK BOARD MEETING MONDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1994 raw land purchase. At the $16,500 minimum per acre purchase price, the park cash dedication would be approximately $1485. The dedication for the commercial 1.6 acres of land would be at a later date and subject to the commercial park land dedication requirements. Kirk Corson, representing Hokanson Developer, introduced himself and said the development was zoned R-4 and would have 15 units per acre. Kirk and Marty continued to discuss the area and answer questions. There was a questions as to what could be placed in the park. Marty stated that a 280 ' informal ballfield would fit well in this area. There was discussion as to placing a 4-way stop at Elm Street and bake Drive, the re-alignment of Highway 49, the impact the alignment would have on the existing development and how it would effect the trail. Marty responded there would be no effect on the development or trail system. It was asked whether the trail would cross the freeway. Marty stated that the trail could not cross the freeway, at the present time, as the bridge does not have pedestrian walkways. George wanted to know where ^. the commercial area was going to be. Kirk Corson pointed out that it was going to be on the North side of Aqua Lane and Lake Drive. Kirk said the commercial area was going to be completed in the future and stated he thought a pizza business or something similar, that would serve the area well, would be built there. There was also discussion on a transportation trail on Lake Drive from the new Park Building to Shirley Kaye' s. Joe thought that there was a deep gully and several single family dwellings along the way so it would be difficult to construct it there. Kirk said he thought the road was going to be widened to a four lane road and would have a 120 ' right-of-way. George stated that this was going to be quite a dense development and we should plan ahead for a transportation trail going South. Marty stated the transportation trail should run on the right-of-way, all the way, and not on park property. Kirk asked Marty about the location of the internal trail. He asked about trail locations, in the development, and stated he felt they were duplicating their efforts with the trails they had to put in. Marty said that the Comprehensive Park Plan requires that there be a trail along Aqua Lane going into the County Park. Kirk wanted to let the board know that they did not intend to make a board walk or put the trail in the wetland area. 2 n CITY OF LINO LAKES PARK BOARD MEETING MONDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1994 MOTION: Brian Bourassa made a motion to accept the proposal as presented with the following conditions: Have a transportation trail along Lake Drive from the north side of the property to the north boundary of the exception area and continuing on, on the south side of the exception area to the south of Aqua Lane in front of the proposed commercial area. They should construct the transportation trail all the way through the exception area and the trail should extend the length of Lake Drive from north to south in the Lake Drive right-of-way. If MNDOT does not allow construction of trail in right-of-way, then the trail can be constructed in the development adjacent to the right-of-way. For rocking out the area through the exception area the developer will be compensated as part of their cash dedication. This trail should be rough graded and rocked with 4 inches of rock. Our intent is to have that trail placed inside the state right-of- way- Secondly, we would like the internal trail segmnt extend from Stage Coach Trail into the park system, as staked by Marty in the field, turn north at the main body of the park and terminate at the north property line adjacent to the platted area. The transportation trail should also be placed along the southern border of the Marshan Lake Townhome development from Lake Drive to the connection point of the trail on the east side of Stage Coach Trail. The trail from Lake Drive to Stage Coach Trail, on the north side of Aqua Lane, should also be a transportation trail, graded and rocked. Motion was seconded by Joe Schmidt and passed unanimously. UPDATES: A. Recreation Complex/Referendum: Marty told the Park Board that the wetland has been delineated and surveyed. We have received the rough draft of the delineation and it did not look quit as bad as he thought it would. He stated we should have the final draft by October 4th or 5th, he would talk to Jeff Schoenbauer and take it to the Rice Creek Watershed District to find out what can and cannot be done. Marty said the next step would be to get an appraisal and meet with the property owners to discuss a purchase agreement, first right of refusal, or financing mechanism. B. Recreation Focus Committee: Marty reported that there was good turnout for the last meeting. The committee is starting to A"*N come up with ideas and are planning for spring and summer events already. He mentioned one idea was an inline skating league. 3 CITY OF LINO LAKES PARK BOARD MEETING MONDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1994 of a portable boarder patrol system. He is looking into the cost of these two methods. There was discussion about the bituminous overlay and the pro' s and con' s to this method. (ie. ice melt from sun on a dark surface. ) The board thought the new rink at City Hall Park might be a good location because of the new building and because it is a heavily used park. Marty asked if this could be researched and then report back to the Park Board at the next meeting. Marty also mentioned that he had met with Nick Eloff and Lisa Gilliland and they were impressed with the 194 City Earth Day Celebration and wanted the city to get involved in their Fall Festival at the Wargo Nature Center. Marty would like to use the nature center for future programs, such as maple syruping and orienteering. C. Friends of the Park: Marty explained he had taken the minutes at the last Friends of the Park meeting and he felt there was a lot of positive things that happened at the meeting. A motion was passed that would allow city staff to expend up to $30/plaque for 3 recognition plaques. He also mentioned a ,.� donation that was given by Ace Solid Waste in the amount of $670 . These monies were to be used for new neighborhood parks requests on a cost match basis and $100 was to be used for the SNAC Program at Rice Lake Elementary Park. Marty explained that a motion authorizing Marty to spend up to $1000 for the Little League irrigation project at Sunrise Park, ballfield #4, consistent with the intent of the designated donation, and upon approval by the Park Board had been passed. MOTION: Joe Schmidt made a motion that the Park Board authorize Marty Asleson to spend the money, from the Friends of the Park, for the irrigation system and the plaque dedicated to the Little League. The motion was seconded by Pam Taschuk and passed unanimously. George asked if some of the neighborhood parks could request money from the Friends of the Park as long as they had matching funds. Marty said yes, the Friends of the Park Committee is looking for neighborhood involvement and ways to get their funds visible in the community. D. 1995 Goal Session: Marty gave an overview of the goal setting session held on September 22, 1994 . He stated that since the Comprehensive Park Plan was approved in 1992 the Park Board had taken goals and priorities and looked at new Park and Recreation issues that have come up. Marty said it is important that the board revisits the goals, priorities, schedules and 4 CITY OF LINO LAKES PARK BOARD MEETING M ONDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1994 funding, for the projects, each year. Marty explained that the 1995 Park Goals had been sent to the members in their packets. He said the members were asked to prioritize the goals, according to their level of importance (0 being low-10 being high) and bring them to the October 3rd Park Board Meeting. George asked when these requests would go before the City Council. Marty replied January. George stated the neighborhood projects require months of preliminary work and neighborhood meetings before construction can start, so he thought they should be brought before the City Council prior to January so expenditures can be approved. At this point it was found that several members had not completed the surveys correctly, so it was decided that they would redo them and turn them in at the end of the meeting. Marty said staff would do a tally and get an average score for each project and put it on the agenda for the next meeting. Ken suggested that after the priority list is completed it should be discussed and a decision made on what projects city staff can complete and what should be contracted out. E. Other Park and Recreation Updates: Marty reported that the playground raising at Woods of Baldwin Lake Park went well. There were many enthusiastic people there and as the day wore on many more came. He said that the timbers and pea rock have been put down and it looks very nice. He added that the trail has started to be graveled. Barry reported that the recreation programs are going well. The first sessions of aerobics and karate classes are filled and we have received registrations for later programs. He then talked about volleyball program locations. He explained that the sites are not listed in the brochure because at the time the brochure went to press we did not have confirmed locations. He said that the schools are very cooperative and he is pleased that we have a good working relationship with them. Marty said that Rice Lake Elementary school has provided the Park and Recreation Department with a bulletin board. Marty then discussed a Consortium City ADA Disability Focus Group meeting that is scheduled for October 6. They are getting together to discuss how they can form a Consortium Recreation Accessibility to Recreation Programs Group. He added that District 11, Centennial Community School, Shoreview, Spring Lake Park, Blaine, Circle Pines and Lexington as well as other cities are interested in cost sharing. Bridging and networking is being done now between Roseville and New Brighton, Hopkins and Minnetonka as well as other cities. 5 CITY OF LINO LAKES PARK BOARD MEETING MONDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1994 F. Shoreview Building: Marty said he had talked to Jerry Hafman and he informed him that the building would not be available to the Park Department this fall. They are not going to be building their new building this fall so they will need to use it this winter. Marty also said he had talked to John LaCasse and he will do a site plan for the board to look at. George said we should be proactive in planning this so when the building becomes available we are ready to put it together. He thought we should also plan ahead so if a bituminous mat is going to be laid for in-line skating it can also be done. OLD BUSINESS• There was no old business. NEW BUSINESS• A. Volunteer Recognition: Marty said that he and Barry had discussed this issue and they feel it would be nice if the Park Board could give recognition to volunteers. One group that came to mind was Jean Briggs and the Girl Scout Troop that had ,.� fulfilled their Adopt-A-Park contract at Lino Park. They have cleaned up the park twice, planted flowers, and watched the park for things that were wrong and called him to let him know. Marty said it would be nice if the girl scouts were invited to a Park Board meeting and given individual certificates of appreciation or a group plaque. He also suggested the media be invited to the meeting so they could take pictures. Other people or groups that can be recognized are volunteer coaches, special events volunteers, and neighborhood groups. George stated that if Barry, Marty or anyone else sees something that a group or individual does, that is extraordinary and merits attention, they recognize and thank them. Recognition should be done right away and not put off. RECOMMENDATION: Ken Johnson made a recommendation that a Certificate of Appreciation from the City of Lino Lakes, with the mayor' s signature, be given to Jean Brigg' s Girl Scout Troop at the next Park Board meeting. B. Trail Dedication Ordinance: Marty explained the reason he started thinking about this was because of the amount of dollars we spend to build trails. He said the money the City spends, to build trails, could be used for purchasing playground equipment or provide other services and facilities. He stated the purpose of this proposal is to amend the present trail ordinance to include the provision requiring 6 CITY OF LINO LAKES PARK BOARD MEETING MONDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1994 developers to completely finish all dedicated trails including the asphalt surfaces. He explained that he is looking at the City of Lakeville' s trail dedication plan as a model. George stated we have to substantiate a change in the ordinance. Marty said it must be fair and equitable and how do you, as a Park Board, justify what is being done and the need. We have to come up with a figure and reflect that back on the total trail needs through the year 2010. Brian said the methodology of taking the overall cost of the whole system and dividing it equally between all users is being used all over with capitol improvements for sewer, for water, etc. George said the developer is still responsible for providing the land as indicated by the Comprehensive Park Plan, but we as a City would pay for the development and finishing of these trails from the determined dedication fee. Marty said what we need to tie together is the cost of the trails and the relationship to projected housing density so a dollar figure can be reached. There was also discussion on boardwalk cost per foot and trail cost per foot. This will also have to be factored into the new dedicated trail fee. RECOMMENDATION: George recommended that we pursue a new trail dedication ordinance and be willing to spend money on engineering fees to evaluate cost of trail systems and project an average cost per foot and average cost per building lot. Brian said that most of the necessary work has been completed. We already have the lengths of all the trails setup and Michael Krech, City of Lino Lakes Engineering Tech, is working on developing the projections for the number of lots. It should not take much more time to complete this. Before adjourning Marty said that Amy Donlin had called him with a couple of issues. One was a trail issue off Woodridge Lane which enters onto the MaryAnn McDugal property. MaryAnn is concerned about cars going onto her property. Marty explained that the trail is posted but barricades are going to be placed at the end to help prevent this from happening. The other issue was expansion of parks on private property. He mentioned that when he and George met with the people in the Brandywood area future park expansion was discussed. He said that wrong information had gotten to property owners in the southern part of the city and the people were upset with what they had heard. Amy feels property owners should be notified and informed as to what is anticipated to happen in their area. Brian asked if the property owners had been given the opportunity 7 CITY OF LINO LAKES PARK BOARD MEETING NOONDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1994 to come to City Hall when the development was being discussed. Marty responded yes, there were public hearings. George commented that these people have been contacted and they have voiced their opinions and they did not want to sell their property because they wanted to keep them as hobby farms. He continued by saying it had been agreed that we would not attain their property through eminent domain. George said this should be addressed at the park development level and in this case the neighborhood discussion level. NEXT MEETING: The next meeting is scheduled for November 7, 1994, 6:30pm, at City Hall. ADJOURNMENT: The meeting was adjourned at 8:37pm. 8 34+C.ENPh _ITS+! STAFF ORIGINATOR: Marty Asleson DATE: November 2, 1994 TOPIC: Clearwater Creek Development Consideration BACKGROUND The Clearwater Creek Development is a new area of consideration on the east side of interstate highway 35 E., bounded on the north side by Clearwater Creek, on the East side by 24 Th. Ave South, and extending down to` 64 Th. street on the south side. This will be a multi-phased project that will eventually produce about 450 houses with varying densities in the different phases. The average density is .between 1.2 to 1.5 houses per acre. Although the board is recommending a dedication for only phase 1 and two at this time, the development as a whole must be considered for overall park and trail needs. Phasing will occur as it relates to the cities direction for controlled development. I have included a number of enclosures that are relevant to the consideration of this area for park and trail dedication. Figure 6.3 from our Comprehensive Plan depicts the original park and trail needs from a planning stand-point. The N-15 park area is a 10.0 acre site that was centrally located within this service area. The need to centrally locate this park area arises from the generally accepted service radiuses of neighborhood park areas to residents that would use the facility. This is usually a service radius of about 1/2 mile. Please notice that the development extends beyond the original boundaries as depicted in figure 6.3. The north/south orientation extends for approximately 1.5 mikes. As we all are aware there is a continuing concern for balancing land use issues in relation to environmental concerns such as wetlands. For this reason the developer has proposed-a larger park area on the north side of the development with strategically _r placed mini parks located to the south with trail linkages. This concept has been reviewed by myself and Jeff Schoenbauer, and should adequately service the needs for the overall development scheme. Please find enclosed a copy of the developers proposal and breakout of the land areas and proposed park dedications. For phase 1 and 2, we would take the land dedication and any additional amount owed in cash. We would then release this cash as needed as additional land is dedicated. The trail corridor adequately accomplishes the goals of the Comprehensive plan. All the trail corridors are indicated by the blue lines as drawn on the color coded maps. Please refer to the enclosed color coded maps and the larger concept for phase 1, and 2. . For phase 1, and 2 you are considering the acceptance of a peninsula of hand on the east side of the development, and a triangular piece of land on the western side. This portion has the trail passing through it. The eastern consideration has an exception passing through it. The Developer has indicated that he would negotiate a realignment with the property owner. This is important ` from a design , privacy, and safety considerations. Looking at this concept in an overall vision, and park acreage -need concern, the larger area on the north side of the development is about 19 or 20 acres giving this area a large open space for r recreation. Since the Developer does not control this land yet, he �Vi has indicated that he would write into the agreement assurances of Op a land dedication in an area that he does now own in the area indicated as phase 5, and highlighted by the green cross-hatch in exhibit D of the concept plan. This area would be a 10 acre parcel of size. Obviously this is not the best scenario for anyone. I have included a copy of the planning report for the Public hearing concerning Clearwater Creek. This report basically covers phases one and two as it refers to park dedication. Please note that the proposed dedication is for 36.13 acres. This figure reflects park acreage including wetlands. Thus, this figure would now be different. Please refer to the break-out sheet of land percentages and formal proposal cover page submitted by the developer, Mr. Tony ,Emmerich. As you can see, for phase 1, the developable upland area is 77.2 acres. The 10`k park land dedication would thus equal 7.7 acres, in an area of 153 lots zoned R-1 (single Family) with a ,.� density .9 lots per acre for phase 1, and 2.4 lots per acre phase two. Again for the development as a whole the developed, as indicated in his cover letter wishes to meet park dedication on a per phase basis using a system of banking and credits. should the land dedication of one of the phases fall below the park dedication requirements of the phase being considered, then the developer would submit a cash dedication to be released upon further dedication. The over all proposed park dedication of the developer exceeds the land dedication requirements of the project as a whole. Referring to the break-out sheet again, the total buildable upland of the project is 195.8 acres, with a total land dedication of 40.6 acres. The large area to the north is the largest share of this totaling 24.5 acres. This area is considered floodplain, however city code allows for the use and development of floodplain as park. In respect to the overall dedication , the developer wishes to exceed his required park dedication needs. OPTIONS 1. Accept the park dedication for phases 1, and 2 land and trails based on the over all concerns of this development. The recommendation should include the banking, credits, and cash assurances. Further should the land area to the north not be developed, that the developer would give written assurances of a 10 acre site in the area shown as Phase 5. 2. Refer back to staff for consideration RECOMENDATION Option 1 NO',�-03-94 7HU 04:0.6...Pm P. 02 m November 3, 1994 City of Lino Lakes 1189 Main Street Lino Lakes, MN 55014 Attn: 14arty To simplify our park dedication requirements we would like to meet our park dedication on a per phase basis using a system of Nanking and credits. As an example if we were short on one phase we would put up the difference in money and inversely if we exceeded the requirements we would expect a credit toward the next prase. We hope this proposal works for you and are looking forward to your comments at the next park meeting.

The subject 121 acre site is located east of Interstate 35E and south -of Cedar Street. To accommodate the proposed subdivision, a rezoning of the subject property from R, Rural to an R-1, Single Family Residential will be necessary.

The successful development of the residential plat will offer the City the opportunity to provide municipal utilities to the I-35/County Road 14 interchange area opening areas of commercial and industrial zoning up for economic development. This prospect is keeping with the Lino Lakes 1990 Comprehensive Plan amendment, the position set forth in the Lino Lakes/Centerville annexation dispute, and the economic development objectives of the City. In preparing for this new development opportunity, the City has undertaken the following studies: TDKA: Area Wide Utility Feasibility Study SEH: The Otter Lake Improvement and Alignment OSM: In cooperation with the City of Hugo, the City is participating in an area Storm Water Management Study These studies are anticipated to be completed in the near future. Without this information, we believe that consideration of the rezoning and preliminary plat is premature. We would recommend continuing the public hearing on Gor-em L.L. - Corporation' s development application until the City has received the aforementioned studies to be reviewed in conjunction with the plat. The following comments are offered in regard to the preliminary plat design: 1 . The following double frontage lots are reconfigured to provide not less than 145 feet of depth: Block 1, Lots 1-.6 Block 7, Lot 1 2 . Submission of a landscape plan will be required to illustrate the screening of lots that about either Otter Lake Road or Cedar Street . 3 . The following precautions are taken in the event that adjacent southerly development does not occur in the immediate future. a. Those lots west of Street A which receive access from Street E be excluded from the subject plat at this time and be developed as a future phase in conjunction with future southerly development. b. Provision is made to provide a possible Street E loop 11-N within the boundaries of the subject site. 2 4. A temporary cul-de-sac is provided at the southern terminus of Street A. 5 . The City Engineer provide comment/recommendation in regard to street width requirements. 6. An access permit is obtained from Anoka County Highway to accommodate the proposed County Road 89 access. 7. The submitted grading and drainage plan is subject to review and approval by the City Engineer. 8 . The submitted utility plan is subject to review and approval by the City Engineer. 9 . The Park Board provide recommendation in regard to park and trail dedication.. 10 . All wetlands are delineated by a person recognized as qualified to the DNR or Army Corps of Engineers. 11. All wetland related recommendations offered by the Army Corps of Engineers, Rice Creek Watershed District, and City Engineer are satisfactorily met. .-� 12 . If the subject development is to occur in phases, a phasing plan is submitted. Such plan shall be subject to City approval . 13 . Comments from other City staff. •ISSUES ANALYSIS Rezoning As noted previously, a rezoning of the subject site from R, Rural to R-1, Single Family Residential is necessary. Judgement Criteria. In review of rezoning requests, the Planning Commission and City Council should consider its possible adverse effects. Judgement should be based upon, but not limited to, the following factors : a. The proposed action has been considered in relation to the specific policies and provisions of and has been found to be consistent with the official City Comprehensive Plan. b. The proposed use is or will be compatible with present and r-� future land uses of the area. 3 c. The proposed use conforms with all performance standards contained herein. d. The proposed use can be accommodated with existing public services and will not overburden the City' s service capacity. e. Traffic generation by the proposed use within capabilities of streets serving the property. Comprehensive Plan. The City' s 1990 Land Use Plan suggests single family residential use of the subject property. Such designation is consistent with the property's inclusion within the municipal urban service area. In this regard, the requested R-1 zoning is consistent with the City' s Comprehensive Plan. Land Use Compatibility. To determine the appropriateness of the proposed use, it is considered beneficial to examine adjacent land uses and zoning designations . Direction Use Zoning North Undeveloped L-I, Light Industrial South Undeveloped R, Rural East Undeveloped NA - City of Hugo West I-35E, Undeveloped R, Rural As evidenced above, lands which surround the subject site lie undeveloped, while the use in and of itself is compatible with surrounding uses, some question obviously must be raised in regard to the potential for premature development. This issue will be addressed in the following section of this report . Public Services. To justify the requested rezoning, findings should be made that the proposed use will not overburden the City' s service capacity. As noted previously, some question exists to whether the proposed subdivision constitutes a "leap frog" development as it lies physically isolated from the City' s existing urban core. In this regard, City Officials must consider the following: 1 . The subject property is within the MUSA. 2 . In past discussions defending possible detachment of the subject property to Centerville, the City has indicated that it holds the ability to provide services to the area. 3 . According to the City Engineer, only a large development such as that being proposed makes immediate sewer and water service practical . 4 4. Provision of sewer and water to the subject site will create a "domino" effect and make commercial and industrial development in the area much more marketable. This concept is endorsed by the Lino Lakes EDAAB. 5 . The provision of sewer and water to the proposed plat will also bring utility availability to the commercial and industrial zoned areas around the I-35/County Road 14 interchange. This area of the City becomes more marketable for economic development. This development and utility concept has bee endorsed by the EDAAB. 6. The applicant has worked closely with the area property owners to assemble land and gain consensus with a regard to the development concept. Currently, the City' s consulting engineer, TKDA, is preparing an area-wide utility feasibility plan that would encompass the I-35E interchange area and the proposed Clearwater Creek plat. This utility feasibility study is anticipated to be completed by the end of October. We would suggest that it would be premature to consider the requested rezoning without the availability of the utility study. Once the study is received, the findings as to the plat' s impacts on community utilities can be made. Traffic Generation. In August of this year, the City' s consulting engineer, SEH, reviewed the Clearwater Creek concept plan (Exhibit D) in regard to traffic related issues. In review of the five phase, 456 lot development proposal , it was estimated that: 0 2 , 950 trips per day would utilize County Road 84 south to the County Road J interchange. 0 Almost 1, 600 trips per day will utilize County Road 14 to the north. 0 150 trips will travel east to Elm Crest Avenue to either the east side of Bald Eagle Lake or Bald Eagle Boulevard. The review concluded that traffic , volumes generated by the development will not create significant traffic problems . While the proposed preliminary plat constitutes only the first phase of the development under review by the consulting engineer, it can be concluded that traffic generated by the proposed use is within the capabilities of streets which serve the subject property. SEH is currently studying the Otter Lake Road corridor to offer le� recommendation as to street improvement and future connection with County Road 14 . This study is also anticipated to be completed by 5 10"N the end of October. The findings of this study may provide additional information as to the traffic patterns associated with this plat. Performance Standards. As a condition of preliminary plat approval, the proposed development will be required to comply with applicable performance standards. Compliance with City development standards will further be evaluated in the preliminary plat review. Preliminary Plat Review In addition to the rezoning request, the applicant has requested simultaneous preliminary plat approval of the Clearwater Creek subdivision. In referenced to the previously submitted sketch plan, the preliminary plat under review constitutes the first phase of a multi-phase development. Blocks. According to the Ordinance, the maximum length of blocks shall be 1, 500 feet. All proposed block lengths have been found to comply with City block length requirements . Density. Within R-1 Zoning Districts, the maximum number of dwelling units per buildable acre must not exceed 3 .2 . With a total of 157 dwelling units being proposed upon the subject 55 buildable acres (121 acres less 66 acres devoted to wetlands) , the density of 2 . 9 units per acre is being proposed. Lot Area. Within R-1 Zoning Districts, a minimum lot area of 10, 800 square feet must be provided (exclusive of wetlands) . the submitted preliminary plat identifies the gross and net areas of all proposed lots . In review of the plat, all proposed lots have been found to meet minimum R-1 District lot area requirements . Lot Width. In the R-1 District, interior lots must provide not less than 80 feet of width. Corner lots in the district must not provide less than 105 feet of width. All proposed lots have been found to meet or exceed R-1 lot width requirements as measured from the setback line. Lot Depth. In the R-1 District, a minimum lot depth of 135 feet is required or 145 feet if a lot has double frontage. Lot depths are measured by taking the average length of the two side property lines, as homes are typically constructed in the middle of lots . In review of the submitted preliminary plat, a number of double frontage lots fail to provide the required 145 feet of depth. Specifically, the following lots provide insufficient lot depths : Block 1, Lots 1-6 Block 7, Lot 1 6 The aforementioned lots should be reconfigured to conform to R-1 lot depth requirements. The applicant should_provide a detailed landscape plan that would illustrate screening of the rear and side yards of double frontage lots and corner lots that abut collector or arterial streets . Specifically, we would recommend screening the following areas : Block 1, Lots 1-6 rear yards and Lot 22 side yard Block 2, Lot 1 side yard along Cedar Street Block 7, Lots 1-4 rear yards along Otter Lake Road Setbacks. The following table illustrates the minimum setback requirements within the R-1 Zoning District: Front Yard 30 feet Side Yard 10 feet Rear Yard 30 feet All proposed lots hold an ability to meet applicable R-1 setbacks . Streets. Generally speaking, the proposed street layout is consistent with that illustrated upon the previously submitted sketch plan and offers a positive circulation pattern. There are, however, a number of items which should be addressed as identified below: 1 . Street E. Street E, as identified on the preliminary plat, is at some future point intended to provide a southerly loop connection to Street A. This connection is, however, contingent upon development of property south of the subject site. Essentially then, Street E will exist as a 1, 200+ foot long cul-de-sac until southerly development occurs . In this regard, some precautions should be taken in the event that southerly development does not occur in the immediate future._ Specifically, the following steps are recommended: a. Those lots west of Street A which receive access via Street E be excluded from the subject plat and be developed as a future phase in conjunction with future southerly development . b. Some provision be made to provide a potential Street E loop within the subject site, should southerly development not occur. 2 . Temporary Cul-De-Sacs As a condition of subdivision approval, a temporary cul-de-sac will need to be constructed at the southern terminus of Street A. Temporary cul-de-sacs must be constructed at the full dimension of a permanent cul-de-sac. To avoid the need for a temporary cul-de-sac, the applicant may choose to plat Lots 12 and 13 of Block 5 as outlots for 7 future development phases . These lots then may be platted with the future development of the land to the south per the concept plan, or if the applicant chooses to loop Street E back to Street A in response to previous staff suggestions. 3 . Street Widths. In conformance with City standards, all streets have been provided 60 feet of right-of-way (for designated local streets) . Of particular issue in this matter is the appropriate classification of Street A. In review of the previously submitted site plan, it is obvious that such street will be a carrier of relatively high volumes of traffic. In this regard, the City Engineer should provide recommendation as to the need for additional right-of-way dedication. 4 . Access. The subject property is to receive access from the west via County Road 84 and from the north via Cedar Street. As a condition of plat approval, a County Road access permit must be obtained from the Anoka County Highway Department . Grading and Drainage. In accordance with subdivision regulations, a grading and drainage plan has been submitted for review. The said plan will be subject to review and approval by the City Engineer. The drainage patterns in this area of Lino Lakes flows east into Hugo then returns to Lino Lakes via Clearwater Creek. As is the case with the area utilities and street improvements, an area Storm Water Management Plan is also being prepared in cooperation with the City of Hugo. The result of this study directly affects this proposed plat . We would recommend that the City continue the preliminary plat public hearing to allow this study to be completed -in order to properly evaluate the storm drainage aspects . Utilities. A utility plan has been superimposed on the submitted grading and drainage plan (Exhibit F) . This plan shall be subject to review and approval by the City Engineer. The acceptability of the proposed utility plan will be evaluated against the area-wide utility feasibility study currently being prepared by TKDA. Park Dedication. Per the City' s Park Dedication Ordinance, the applicant is required to dedicate 10 percent of the land or cash in lieu of a land dedication. In satisfaction of these requirements, the applicant has proposed the dedication of 36 . 13 acres of park/trail land. The acceptability of this dedication should be subject to comment/recommendation of the Park Board. 8 � Wetlands. The subject site contains a total of eight individual wetlands which overlay approximately 66 acres of land. The applicant is proposing to fill approximately .56 acres of wetland to accommodate development. As a condition of preliminary plat approval, the following wetland related conditions will be imposed: 1. All wetlands must be delineated by a qualified person recognized by the DNR, Army Corps of Engineers, etc. 2 . Recommendations of the Army Corps of Engineers, Rice Creek Watershed District, and City Engineer relating to wetlands are satisfactorily met. Phasing Plan. If the subject development is to occur in phases, a specific phasing plan must be submitted. The phasing plan shall be subject to City approval. CONCLUSION With a number of studies pertinent to this subdivision being outstanding, we do not believe sufficient information is available to properly evaluate this development proposal . We understand that the various engineers' reports will likely be concluded prior to the November Planning Commission meeting. As such a continuation ^� of the public hearing is recommended. pc: John Powell Randy Schumacher Gor-em L.L.

We haven 't reached all of you personally and wanted to do so ASAP so you too can field questions from Rice Lake staff and students & share your, idea: and thoughts with us ! This is our Effort to fill you in on all the details to date of our Rice Lake November Art Gallery Show. The July mailings have indicated this as a "joint" venture with Rice Lake SNAG & Rice Lake Art Adventure Committee. Mr. Kelley has been our main contact. with SNAG since June, although Allison Bergman has graciously agreed to also receive our mailings and assist us in doing much of the " legwork" and brainstorming for ideas on SNAC behalf. The theme is "Art & the Environment . " The idea is to get kids thinking about all the ways we can tie these two together & how vital they both are to us everyday.
