BACKGROUND
The property owners of 6966 & 6970 Lake Drive, Robert and Carol Stanek, submitted a Land

They live in the house located at 6970 Lake Drive. The illegal accessory structure on 6966 Lake
Drive is for their farm animals and remains a zoning code violation to date.
Property History
The City has been working with the Stanek’s since 2014 to bring their two (2) lots into
compliance regarding illegal accessory structures, farm animals, and lot combination.
• September 2014: Stanek’s illegally housed farm animals on their R-1, Single Family
Residential zoned lots and constructed accessory structures without permits. Staff met
with the Stanek’s and explained the code violations as well as the lot combination
requirement.
• January 2015: Stanek’s submitted Land Use Application to rezone their two (2) lots from
R-1, Single Family Residential to R, Rural to allow for the keeping of farm animals.
• March 2015: Rezoning denied per Council Resolution No #15-21 due to spot zoning.
• August 24, 2015: Seventeen (17) parcels along Lake Drive (including Stanek’s) were
rezoned to R, Rural per Ordinance No. 07-15. This allowed Stanek’s to keep farm
animals
• October 19, 2015: Staff mailed a letter to the Stanek’s regarding lot combination and
building permit requirements. The letter also included the one page Anoka County form
to combine the lots.
• November 4, 2015: Staff mailed another letter to Stanek’s as follow up to October 19,
2015 code enforcement letter.
• December 7, 2015 Council Work Session: The lot combination requirement was
discussed again with City Council.
• December 11, 2015: Staff emailed Carol Stanek again regarding the lot combination
requirement.
• December 14, 2015: Carol Stanek responded to staff email stating “I will have my
attorney look at this and get back to you.”
• May 9, 2022: Staff received a call from an individual interested in building a house on
6966 Lake Drive.
3
• May 10, 2022: 6966 Lake Drive listed on MLS realtor site. Staff mailed and emailed a
letter to the Stanek’s noting requirement to combine lots and that 6966 Lake Drive cannot
be sold or developed separately.
• June 13, 2022: Stanek’s submitted land use application for variance from lot
combination requirement.
City Zoning Ordinance
The lots are both zoned R, Rural. Per City Code Section 1007.080(2)(a) and (b), the required
minimum lot size is ten (10) gross acres and the minimum lot width is 330ft. Both lots are less
than 10 acres and are approximately 200 ft wide. Both lots are substandard, unsewered, and non-
conforming because they do not meet the minimum lot size or the lot width requirements. The
following City ordinances and State Statutes support the lot combination requirement.
• Per City Code Section 1007.001(2) Definitions:
NON-CONFORMING USES. A use or activity which was lawful prior to the adoption,
revision or amendment of a zoning ordinance, but which fails, by reason of such adoption,
revision or amendment, to conform to the present requirements of the zoning district.
Staff Comment: It should be noted that when the lots were zoned R-1, Single Family Residential
they were still non-conforming and substandard because they were not served by public sanitary
sewer and water as required in the R-1 district.
• Per City Code Section 1007.041 Non-Conforming Uses and Structures:
(1) Purpose. It is the purpose of this section to provide for the regulation of non-
conforming buildings, structures and uses and to specify those requirements, circumstances, and
conditions under which non-conforming buildings, structures and uses will be operated and
maintained. The Zoning Ordinance establishes separate districts, each of which is an appropriate
area for the location of uses which are permitted in that district. It is necessary and consistent
with the establishment of these districts that non-conforming buildings, structures and uses not
be permitted to continue without restriction. Furthermore, it is the intent of this section that all
non-conforming uses shall be eventually brought into conformity.
Staff Comment: It is specially stated that the intent of the nonconforming ordinance is that all
nonconforming uses shall be eventually brought into conformity. Combining the 2 lots will
create one 7.75 acre lot that is 400 ft wide. The new lot will meet lot width requirements and
will be closer in conformance of a 10 acre lot.
• Per City Code Section 1007.042(1) Lot of Record:
(a) Any substandard unsewered lot of record existing at the effective date of this
Ordinance and held in separate ownership different from the ownership of adjoining lots may be
used for the erection of a structure conforming to the use regulations of this Ordinance provided
that:
4
1. The lot was a separate parcel with its own parcel identification number on the
date of the adoption of this Ordinance.
2. It can be demonstrated that the lot can accommodate the proposed principal
structure, onsite well if the public water system is not available, and an onsite wastewater
treatment system including both a primary and secondary drain field area in accordance with MN
Stat. 7080 and other applicable requirements.
3. The lot has direct frontage on an improved public street which has been accepted
for maintenance by the City of Lino Lakes.
4. All building and site improvements adhere to all required setbacks.
Staff Comment: This zoning section also specifically addresses any substandard unsewered lot
held in separate ownership different from the ownership of adjoining lots may be used for the
erection of a structure. The vacant lot addressed 6966 Lake Drive is not held in separate
ownership from 6970 Lake Drive and cannot be used for the erection of a structure.
City Shoreland Ordinance
Both lots are located within the Shoreland Management Overlay district of Rice Lake which is
classified as a natural environment lake. The purpose of requiring the two (2) substandard lots to
be combined is to create one (1) parcel that is more in compliance with minimum lot size and lot
width requirements.
• Per City Code Chapter 1102: Shoreland Management Overlay:
o Section 1102.07 Zoning and Water Supply/Sanitary Provisions.
(1) Lot area and width standards.
(a) Residential Zoning Districts
a. Lot Area per Unit: Unsewered lot on a Natural Environment Lake is 10
acres
b. Lot Width: Unsewered lot on a Natural Environment Lake is 330ft.
o Section 1102.08 Nonconformities.
(1) Construction on nonconforming lots of record.
(c) If, in a group of two or more contiguous lots under the same ownership, any
individual lot does not meet the requirements of § 1102.07(1), the lot must not be
considered as a separate parcel of land for the purposes of sale or development. The lot
must be combined with the one or more contiguous lots so they equal one or more
parcels of land, each meeting the requirements of § 1102.07 of this chapter as much as
possible.
5
Minnesota State Statute
• Per Minnesota State Statute 462.357 Subd.1e. Nonconformities related to shoreland lots:
(f) In a group of two or more contiguous lots of record under a common ownership, an individual
lot must be considered as a separate parcel of land for the purpose of sale or development, if it
meets the following requirements:
(1) the lot must be at least 66 percent of the dimensional standard for lot width and lot
size for the shoreland classification consistent with Minnesota Rules, chapter 6120;
(2) the lot must be connected to a public sewer, if available, or must be suitable for the
installation of a Type 1 sewage treatment system consistent with Minnesota Rules, chapter 7080,
and local government controls;
(3) impervious surface coverage must not exceed 25 percent of each lot; and
(4) development of the lot must be consistent with an adopted comprehensive plan.
(g) A lot subject to paragraph (f) not meeting the requirements of paragraph (f) must be
combined with the one or more contiguous lots so they equal one or more conforming lots as
much as possible.
Minnesota Rules Chapter 6120
Minnesota Rule 6120.3300 Subp.2(D) further discusses the nonconforming lot combination
requirement. The rule also establishes minimum statewide shoreland lot size and lot width
requirements. The MNDNR minimum unsewered riparian lot size on a natural lake is 80,000sf
and the minimum lot width is 200ft.
However, where the requirements of the City ordinance, State Statute, or Rule are more or less
restrictive, the more restrictive standards shall apply (Rule 6120.2800 Subpart 1. and City Code
1102.02(6)). In this instance, the City’s 10 acre lot size and 330ft lot width are more restrictive
and shall apply.
Applicant’s Narrative
The property owners submitted the attached narrative. Staff notes the Stanek’s have been aware
of the lot combination requirement since 2014.
MnDNR Comments
The DNR reviewed the variance land use application and stated the City has standards much
stricter than statute for shoreland lot sizes, so they have no comments.
6
VARIANCE CRITERIA AND FINDINGS OF FACT
Per City Code Section 1007.018(1)(a): No variance shall be granted unless it meets all the
criteria in paragraphs 1. through 7. below. The City shall make findings regarding compliance
with these criteria.
1. The variance shall be in harmony with the general purposes and intent of the ordinance.
The following are the general purposes and intent of the ordinances:
• City Code Section 1007.041 Non-Conforming Uses and Structures:
(2) Purpose. It is the purpose of this section to provide for the regulation of non-
conforming buildings, structures and uses and to specify those requirements, circumstances, and
conditions under which non-conforming buildings, structures and uses will be operated and
maintained. The Zoning Ordinance establishes separate districts, each of which is an
appropriate area for the location of uses which are permitted in that district. It is necessary and
consistent with the establishment of these districts that non-conforming buildings, structures and
uses not be permitted to continue without restriction. Furthermore, it is the intent of this section
that all non-conforming uses shall be eventually brought into conformity.
• City Code Section 1007.080 R, Rural District:
(1) Purpose. This district is designed and intended to aid in guiding development toward
fulfillment of the Comprehensive Plan and to serve the following functions:
(b) To help guide development of urban and rural areas along an orderly design to
preserve continuity and efficiency of service.
• Chapter 1102: Shoreland Management Overlay:
(2) Policies. The uncontrolled use of shorelands of the city affects the public health, safety
and general welfare not only by contributing to pollution of public waters, but also by
impairing the local tax base. Therefore, it is in the best interests of the public health,
safety and welfare to provide for the wise subdivision, use and development of shorelands
of public waters. The Legislature of Minnesota has delegated responsibility to local
governments of the state to regulate the subdivision, use and development of shorelands
of public waters and thus preserve and enhance the quality of surface waters, conserve
the economic and natural environmental values of shorelands, and provide for the wise
use of waters and related land resources. The responsibility for the management of
shoreland areas is hereby recognized by the city.
The variance to waive the requirement to combine the two (2) nonconforming lots and allow the
sale and development of a substandard, unsewered, nonconforming lot is not in harmony with
the intent of the non-conforming ordinance that all non-conforming uses shall be eventually
brought into the conformity. The variance is not in harmony with creating and maintaining
7
larger rural, unsewered lots to preserve continuity and efficiency of service and development
when public water and sanitary sewer are available. The variance is also not in harmony with
the intent of the shoreland ordinance and protecting the natural environment.
2. The variance shall be consistent with the comprehensive plan.
Per the 2040 Comprehensive Plan, Chapter 3, Land Use:
Goal 1: Create a unified vision and future for the city, promote a well planned
community, prevent fragmented development, address the impacts of development and
redevelopment on natural resources, aesthetics and view corridors, and provide balanced land
use and connectivity that ensures the integration of both sides of the regional park.
Goal 7: Sustain Lino Lakes’ natural resources which make it a desirable place to live. A policy
is to protect and preserve the natural resources of the City.
The variance is not consistent with the comprehensive plan. Allowing the sale and development
of substandard, unsewered shoreland lot is not consistent with preventing fragmented
development and protecting the natural resources.
3. There shall be practical difficulties in complying with the ordinance. “Practical difficulties,”
as used in connection with the granting of a variance, means that the property owner proposes to
use the property in a reasonable manner not permitted by the ordinance. Economic
considerations alone do not constitute practical difficulties. Practical difficulties include, but are
not limited to, inadequate access to direct sunlight for solar energy systems.
The property owner proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner; however, there is no
practical difficulty in complying with the lot combination requirement.
Economic considerations regarding the land sale profits alone does not constitute a practical
difficulty.
4. The plight of the landowner shall be due to circumstances unique to the property not created
by the landowner.
The plight of the landowner was created by the landowner when they purchased the 6966 Lake
Drive lot in 2013. There are no unique circumstances to the property causing the landowner not
to be able to comply with the ordinance requirement of combining the two (2) lots.
5. The variance shall not alter the essential character of the locality.
The variance will not alter the essential character of the locality which are a single family homes
on substandard, unsewered, nonconforming lots.
6. A variance shall not be granted for any use that is not allowed under the ordinance for
property in the zoning district where the subject site is located.
8
The variance will not be granted for any use that is not allowed under the ordinance for property
in the zoning district. The property is zoned R, Rural and allows for the construction of a single
family detached dwelling.
7. In accordance with MN Stat. 462.357, Subp. 6, variances shall be granted for earth sheltered
construction as defined in MN Stat. 216C.06, Subd. 14, when in harmony with the zoning
ordinance.
Not applicable.
RECOMMENDATION
The variance request from the following City ordinances should be denied because not all seven
(7) variance criteria are met:
1. City Code Section 1007.042 (1) Lot of Record:
(a) Any substandard unsewered lot of record existing at the effective date of this
Ordinance and held in separate ownership different from the ownership of adjoining
lots may be used for the erection of a structure conforming to the use regulations of
this Ordinance.
2. City Code Section 1102.08 Nonconformities:
(1) Construction on nonconforming lots of record.
(c) If, in a group of two or more contiguous lots under the same ownership, any
individual lot does not meet the requirements of § 1102.07(1), the lot must not be
considered as a separate parcel of land for the purposes of sale or development. The lot
must be combined with the one or more contiguous lots so they equal one or more parcels
of land, each meeting the requirements of § 1102.07 of this chapter as much as possible.
If the Board finds all seven (7) variance criteria are met and recommends approval of the
variance, staff suggests the following conditions be included in the approval:
1. A Shoreland Buffer Declaration should be recorded against both lots similar to Poehling
Addition, Stern Addition, and Lake Amelia Woods Addition.
2. The illegal accessory structure located at 6966 Lake Drive shall be removed prior to the
lot being listed for sale.
3. Any farm animals located at 6966 Lake Drive shall be removed prior to the lot being
listed for sale.
4. The number of allowed farm animals located on 6970 Lake Drive shall comply with the
requirements of the R, Rural zoning district.
a. No more than one (1) animal unit per two (2) acres.
b. 6970 Lake Drive is 3.75 acres = 1.88 animal units allowed
i. For example:
9
1. One (1) horse = 1 animal unit
2. One 50 pound goat = 0.05 animal units

Proposal
Per the applicant’s narrative, the intent is to develop 23 housing units that are one and
two level with private streets and HOA. Please see the attached applicant’s narrative for
a detailed description of the project.
Staff Comment:
3
1. The narrative and concept plan incorrectly references the 2030 Comprehensive
Plan.
Comprehensive Plan and Housing Density
Per the 2040 Comprehensive Plan, the parcel is guided Medium Density Residential
which requires 4.0 to 6.0 units per net acre.
Gross Area (acres) 4.91
Wetlands & Water Bodies 0.00
Public Parks & Open Space 0.00
Arterial ROW (0.42)
Other (Utility Transmission Easement) 0.00
Other (Wetland Buffer Area) 0.00
Net Area (acres) 4.49
# of Units 23
Gross Density (units/acre) 4.68
Net Density (units/acre) 5.12
The proposed 5.12 units per net acres is within the medium density range.
Staff Comment:
1. Only the dedicated right-of-way required along CSAH 23 (Lake Drive) can be
subtracted as Arterial ROW, not Vicky Lane or the private road.
Planning District #2
The parcel is located in Planning District #2. There are no specific land use requirements
for this parcel other than medium density residential. Transportation needs include
implementation of the Anoka County Highway access management plan for CSAH 23
(Lake Drive) which includes the realignment of Vicky Lane with Kelly Lane to eliminate
the existing offset intersection.

Utility Staging Area Stage 1A (2018-2025)
Rezoning
The property is currently zoned R-1, Single Family Residential. The property would
need to be rezoned to PUD, Planned Unit Development in order to allow for a variety of
lot sizes, lot widths and housing products as proposed in the concept plan.
Zoning Requirements and Standards
Baseline/Conventional Zoning District Requirements
As with any PUD, the City starts with the conventional zoning district as the baseline.
Property that is guided medium density residential may be zoned R-2, Two Family
Residential or R-3, Medium Density Residential. The following chart provides a
comparison of the baseline/conventional zoning district requirements vs. the proposed
development.

1. As proposed, the PUD concept plan is most comparable to the R-2 Single Family
requirements. PUD flexibility would be required for lot sizes, lot widths, lot
depth, side setbacks and housing products.
2. An additional 10ft of street right-of-way is required along CSAH 23 (Lake Drive).
3. Lot 1, Block 1 will not meet the 40ft setback requirement after additional street
right-of-way along CSAH 23 (Lake Drive) is dedicated.
4. Landscape buffer and screening are required along all perimeters of the lot.
5. The impervious surface of the entire development cannot exceed 50%.
PUD, Planned Unit Development Requirements

Staff Comment:
1. The applicant would need to provide a public benefit in order to be considered for
PUD zoning. Examples could be open space, higher architectural & building
standards etc.
2. No open space is provided.
Building Design Standards
Per the applicant’s narrative, all homes will be slab on grade with an optional second
floor level. All homes come with a dedicated storm room. Homes can range from
1,400sf and up. Garage sizes are 20’2” x 21’7” measured inside wall to wall. Varying
building elevations and color are provided. All homes include a 12’ x 12’ patio. The
applicant’s narrative includes renderings of the proposed housing products.
Staff Comments:
1. More detailed information will be required to fully analyze each housing product.
2. The building design standards of the R-2 zoning district shall be used as the
starting baseline for each housing product in regards to floor area, utility area,
garages etc.
3. The houses do not appear to meet the minimum R-2 floor area requirements of
1,010sf less garage area plus additional 100sf for units without basements.
4. The garages do not appear to meet the minimum R-2 requirements in regards to
garage forward of house and length of garage wall.
5. The garages do not appear to meet the proposed 22’ x 24’ garage size zoning
requirements.
6. The applicant also submitted a house plan with a single car garage which staff
does not support.
7. Side yard patio doors exiting into a reduced 6.5ft side setback would not be
allowed because there is no room for a sidewalk, patio or deck.

1. Extend the southbound CSAH 23 right turn lane to the new location of Vicky
Lane.
2. An additional 10 feet of right way along CSAH 23 as well along with right of
access outside of Vicky Lane.
Lino Lakes Public Safety
The Police Division recommends dedicated northbound and southbound turn lanes from
Lake Drive onto Vicky Lane.
The Fire Division recommends no parking on the private street. Vicky Lane would need
to be wider to allow parking. Hydrant locations will also need to be reviewed.
Environmental Board
The Environmental Board reviewed the PUD concept plan on June 29, 2022. General
comments included the need for landscape buffer and screening, opening space, trail and
a more diverse mix of native plants.
City Engineer
The City Engineer provided comments in the attached letter dated July 6, 2022.
PUD Development Stage Plan/Preliminary Plat
The City’s review and comments on the concept plan’s relation to the Comprehensive
Plan and development regulations does not grant any rights to the applicant to develop
the property as depicted by the concept plan.
A land use application for PUD Development Stage Plan/Preliminary Plat shall be
required. The developer should have a neighborhood meeting prior to submittal of a
PUD Development Stage Plan/Preliminary Plat.
10
RECOMMENDATION
Staff has overall concerns regarding the number of single family detached housing
products, smaller lots, side yard setbacks and drainage etc. A more compatible housing
product for this site could be the R-2 two family or R-3 townhome product. Examples of
medium density residential development immediately in the area are the two and three
unit products in Highland Meadows East 2nd Addition on Nancy Court or the four unit
products in Highland Meadows West on Marilyn Drive and Oak Lane.
Staff is requesting feedback from the Planning & Zoning Board.

LOCATION
The proposed Villas on Vicky is located on 4.9 acres at the intersection of Lake Drive
and Vicky Lane.
BACKGROUND
Ranger Development in conjunction with Hedberg Homes Inc. (builder) has
completed similar projects to what Villas on Vicky would be. Our past projects have
been in Otsego and four in Blaine in the past seven years.
DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT
The intent is to develop Villas on Vicky to be twenty-three one and two level, single
family residential neighborhood, with private streets and HOA. The propose of this
request is to submit, process, and obtain approval for rezoning and a preliminary plat
for development.
This type of housing product that is proposed is in much demand and over the years
we have listen to what clients are looking for within this type of development.
The property is currently zoned R-1 single family residential; the City of Lino Lake 2030
comprehensive plan shows future land use to “Mixed Use”.
Ranger Development is requesting a zoning change to a PUD so we can maximize
the land use. The PUD zoning change will allow flexibility and diversity within the
proposed to make it economically feasible. As we all know that materials have
increased within the last two years and infrastructure materials have escalated also.
The proposed development will have a density of 4.68 units per acre. Lot size will
range from 5,358 sq.’ to 11,066 sq.’.
Street width is twenty-six feet in width and will accommodate parking on the street for
visitors, so no off-street parking shall be needed.
With-in the development construction, Vicky Lane will re-align to match up with Kelly
Street on the East side of Lake Drive. We have had a discussion with Anoka County
regarding turn lanes. Unofficial comment was that most likely we may need to widen
turn lane from Lake Drive onto new Vicky Lane. They did not see any other issues with
the concept.
Outlots, setbacks and lot sizes are shown on plans provided with the application.
4247 117th Ave. NE Blaine, MN. 55449 763.242.3706
HOUSE PRODUCT DESIGN
FOUNDATIONS
All homes will be slab on grade “no basements”, optional second-floor level
can be added if requested.
STORM ROOMS
All homes come with a dedicated storm room, for one to go to during
inclement weather conditions.
These rooms have additional wall connections into the concrete floor to help
prevent up lift and rooms are shown on house plan.
FOOTAGE SIZE OF THE HOMES
Homes can range from 1400 sq.’ and up.
Homes are custom designed to the Clients wishes within the designated house
footprint and lot size.
GARAGE SIZES
One of our biggest requests from Clients is for larger garages, in Villas on Vicky
we will offer some lots that will accommodate larger garages.
We also want to offer a single car option as we have seen more requests from
clients that only have one car and it would be about price point for Clients.
ELEVATIONS
As for the design of homes for the project, we try not to duplicate elevations or
colors onto other homes if possible. Our past developments have been
designed this way and upon completion of the projects they are visually
pleasing.
Roofs throughout the project will have designer shingles.
In pervious projects that we have completed we did not have restrictions on
roof pitch, since we do our designs in house, so we control the overlook
elevation look, which is the main focus. This worked well by not having roof
pitch restriction and provided more options for different front elevations.
PATIOS
All homes include a twelve-by-twelve patio with additional footages optional if
the Client so desired.
DRIVEWAYS
Driveways shall be concrete and two feet wider than garage door width.
LANDSCAPE
Each home includes two trees, plantings in front of home. Landscape rock
around the permitter of home.
Each home includes irrigation system that is controlled by the HOA.
4247 117th Ave. NE Blaine, MN. 55449 763.242.3706
OPTIONAL FEATURES
Listed below are some of options that will be available to Clients are as follows:
1. In-floor gas radiant heating where the gas boiler doubles as tankless water
heater (most requested option) which we believe is the most energy efficient
on the market.
2. Gas or electric fireplaces
3. Insulated garages
4. Walk-in showers (wheelchair assessable)
5. Vaulted ceilings
6. Wider hallways and interior doors to accommodate wheelchairs.
HOME EFFICIENCY OR HERS (HOME ENERGY RATING STYEM) SCORES
With the rising cost that is accruing with natural gas prices we take energy efficiency
very seriously. On a HERS score, the lowers the number, better efficiency, in which
Minnesota leads the nation in the HERS index of 50.
While a standard new home is awarded a rating of one hundred. A home with a HERS
score of 70 is 30% more energy efficient than a standard new home.
Our HERS scores run from in the 30s to 45 which is well under MN State average (50) for
new homes.
HOA ASSOCIATION
Villas on Vicky shall be overseen by a HOA, which will enforce the regulations set forth
in the HOA documents. This will control what neighbors can do to the exterior of their
homes.
Here is a brief list of regulations.
1. The HOA shall provide lawn care and snow removal from driveway, sidewalks,
and streets with any snowfall of greater than two inches.
2. All planting that has been provide with the sale of home shall be maintained
by Homeowners and not the HOA.
3. HOA will monitor and maintain each homes irrigation system.
4. No parking of vehicles in driveways more than forty-eight hours.
5. No garbage cans stored outside.
6. Any changes to landscaping that has been established with the sale of the
home must have the approval of the HOA.
7. No fencing of yard, but small dog kennel fencing maybe approved on an
individual base and at the discretion of the HOA, which then the homeowner is
responsible for maintaining that portion of yard.

Memorandum
To: Katie Larsen, City Planner, City of Lino Lakes
From: Kelsey Gelhar, Engineer, WSB
Diane Hankee, City Engineer, City of Lino Lakes
Date: July 6, 2022
Re: Villas on Vicky Concept Plan
WSB Project No. 020731-000
WSB has reviewed the Villas on Vicky Concept Plan for a 23 unit PUD prepared by E.G. Rud &
Sons, Inc. and submitted on June 10, 2022. The site is located on the west side of Lake Drive
(CSAH 23), south of the existing Vicky Lane.
Engineering
• Erosion Control & Grading
The proposed Villas on Vicky project would require mass site grading for the streets and lots,
appurtenant erosion control, and a SWPPP. Engineering staff feels that the lots as proposed are
too small to accommodate proper grading and drainage for the proposed homes. The lots are not
wide enough for the proposed product type to be constructed and still meet grading standards.
Staff is concerned that there will not be enough room on the proposed lots to meet screening and
setback requirements and still be able to grade the rear yards to adequately drain.
• Stormwater Management
The Villas of Vicky property is relatively flat and appears to drain to a low area near Lake Drive
(CSAH 23). There is no known floodplain on the site. An 18” and 21” diameter Anoka County storm
sewer line is located on the east side of Lake Drive (CSAH 23). City records indicate that there is a
storm sewer pipe stubbed across Lake Drive (CSAH 23) in front of this property. Anoka County
should review the preliminary drainage design concurrent to the City’s preliminary plat reviews.
Anoka County must approve any connection to the Anoka County storm sewer. An engineered
model would be required.
The Villas on Vicky concept plan is in the George Watch Resource Management Unit (RMU)
according to the City of Lino Lakes 2018 Local Water Management Plan (WMP). George Watch Lake
is included in the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency’s (MPCA) impaired waters list and is supported
by upwelling groundwater. The WMP noted several issues within the George Watch RMU, including
altered hydrology. A strategy for mitigating this issue includes possibly reducing the volume of runoff
from the site and investigating if infiltration is feasible on the site. A geotechnical report was not
provided, though it appears that soil borings were performed based on the “Aerial Resource Map”.
Based on the review of the Villas on Vicky Concept Plan the following was concluded:
• The areas identified for storm ponding appear infeasible to construct and insufficient to meet
city code and standards. Reconfiguring the ponding areas will impact the layout of the lots
and streets.
• The proposed improvements cannot create adverse impacts to neighboring properties by
grading to drain towards those lots. Staff feels that steep slopes will be needed to a create a

functional rear yard drainage system.
• Ponding areas shall not be within the public right-of-way.
• Water Supply
The existing property is identified as a Stage 1A Planned Service Area in the 2040
Comprehensive Plan. There is an existing 8-inch diameter ductile iron pipe (DIP) water main
along the south side of Vicky Lane and an existing 12-inch diameter DIP water main along the
east side of Lake Drive (CSAH 23).
It is feasible to extend the water main to service the proposed lots. However, the size of the water
main will have to be determined and the water main will most likely need to be looped through
the site. All proposed units will be required to connect to the City’s water system.
• Sanitary Sewer
The existing property is identified as a Stage 1A Planned Service Area in the 2040 Comprehensive
Plan and is in the 2B sanitary sub-district. There is existing 10-inch diameter polyvinyl chloride (PVC)
trunk sanitary sewer along the south side of Vicky Lane and 21-inch diameter PVC trunk sanitary
sewer along the east side of Lake Drive (CSAH 23). City records do not indicate the invert elevations
of the sanitary sewer manhole closest to the proposed development. Elevations will have to be field
verified before design can be completed.
The 2040 Comprehensive Plan does not identify any future trunk lines in this area. The development
would have to connect to the existing trunk sanitary lines on Vicky Lane or Lake Drive (CSAH 23). It
is feasible to extend sanitary sewer through this development. All proposed units will be required to
connect to the City’s sanitary sewer system.
• Transportation
The Villas on Vicky is located at the southwest corner of the existing Vicky Lane and Lake Drive
(CSAH 23) intersection. Vicky Lane is a 2-lane residential street and Lake Drive (CSAH 23) is a
county state aid highway. In this area, Lake Drive (CSAH 23) has 2-lanes with a striped center gore
and paved shoulders. The concept plan includes realigning the Vicky Lane and Lake Drive (CSAH
23) intersection so that the entrance to Vicky Lane aligns with Kelly Street on the east side of Lake
Drive (CSAH 23). This realignment would include curving Vicky Lane so that the proposed portion
runs parallel to Lake Drive (CSAH 23) for approximately 200 ft. A private drive is planned to connect
to Vicky Lane in two different locations.
Anoka County reviewed the development and they will require that the existing right turn lane on
southbound Lake Drive (CSAH 23) be extended to the proposed intersection. Anoka County also
reviewed the need for a designated left turn lane on northbound Lake Drive (CSAH 23). A left turn
lane will not be required at this time as it would have significant geometric and construction impacts
on Lake Drive (CSAH 23) and surrounding streets and properties.
Based on the review of the Villas on Vicky Concept Plan the following was concluded:
• The Concept Plan is generally consistent with the Transportation Section of the City’s
2040 Comprehensive Plan.
• A Traffic Impact Study (TIS) should be completed to document the traffic operational
and safety impacts of the proposed development.
• City Standard Details state that residential streets included in a PUD must be at least
30-ft wide from back-of-curb to back-of-curb (B-B). The plans currently show a road
width of 28-ft B-B.
• Staff does not recommend that the city approve layout of the Vicky Lane and private
drive as currently proposed. The southern intersection of the private drive and Vicky
Ms. Katie Larsen
7/6/2022

Lane is only about 55 ft from the Vicky Lane/Lake Drive (CSAH 23) intersection and is
located on a curve. Staff is concerned about visibility for cars turning left onto the
private drive from Vicky Lane and is concerned about stacking on Vicky Lane if
vehicles have to wait to turn onto Lake Drive (CSAH 23).
• Staff recommends that more separation be provided between the southern curve of
Vicky Lane and the intersection of Vicky Lane and Lake Drive (CSAH 23).
• Turning movements should be provided to make sure that trucks (WB-67) can make
the right turn from Lake Drive (CSAH 23) on to Vicky Lane.
• The City’s Comprehensive Plan identifies a proposed trail segment adjacent to the
proposed development along Lake Drive (CSAH 23). The corridor for the future trail
should be included as part of the Concept Plan.
• Wetlands
The site does not include any known wetlands.
• Landscaping
The landscaping will be reviewed with future submittals.
• Floodplain
There is no known floodplain on this site.
• Drainage and Utility Easements
Per City Code, the City requires 10-ft wide drainage and utility (D&U) easements along plat
boundaries and along lot lines. Drainage and utility easements along lot lines are allowed to be
centered on common rear and side lot lines. The right-of-way for local public roadways shall be 60-ft
wide.
An additional 10-ft of right-of-way along Lake Drive (CSAH 23) will be required to be dedicated as
part of any future plat. Lake Drive (CSAH 23) is designated as an A-Minor Arterial Reliever, which
requires 120-ft of right-of-way according to section 302.03 of the city code.
• Development Agreement
A Development Agreement will be required with the final platting process.
• Stormwater Maintenance Agreement
A Stormwater Maintenance Agreement will be required with the final plat. Public facilities will
be covered by the City’s Programmatic Maintenance Agreement.
• Permits Required
1. NPDES General Construction Permit
2. City of Lino Lakes Zoning Permit for Construction
3. Minnesota Pollution Control Agency Sanitary Sewer Extension Permit
4. Minnesota Department of Health
5. Rice Creek Watershed Permit
6. Anoka County Right-of-Way and Access Permit

Re: Environmental Board Comments/June 29th, 2022 /Villas on Vicky
The Environmental Board, at their June 29th, 2022 meeting, had the following
recommendations for Villas on Vicky:
1. There does not seem to be room for required buffer and screen plantings
or open space plantings.
2. The project narrative mentions two trees will be planted in each front yard.
There should be only one boulevard tree per frontage planted in the right-
of-way per property. This is one tree per lot or two trees for corner lots. If
there is a second tree planted in the front yards, they should not be
located in the right-of-way.
3. A proposed trail appears on this site in the 2040 Comprehensive Plan and
should be considered as part of this project.
4. A diverse mix of native plants and plants beneficial to pollinators shall be
utilized wherever possible and/or practical. This includes vegetative
buffers around stormwater management features and also in required
open space and landscape plantings.

PLANNING & ZONING BOARD
AGENDA ITEM 7A
STAFF ORIGINATOR: Kendra Lindahl and Kevin Shay, Landform
P & Z MEETING DATE: July 13 , 2022
REQUEST: Zoning Ordinance Update (Rural Cluster Development)
CASE NUMBER: N/A
APPLICANTS: City of Lino Lakes
OWNERS: N/A
BACKGROUND
On March 8, 2021, the City Council authorized Landform to update the City’s Zoning Ordinance
and Zoning Map. This is one of the steps required to implement the 2040 Comprehensive Plan
that was adopted by the City Council on November 9, 2020.
On May 12, 2021, the P&Z Board kicked off this effort with a discussion of Planned Unit
Developments (PUD). The P&Z Board had a robust discussion about the purpose and intent of
PUDs and provided direction to staff about desired changes to the ordinance.
On June 9, 2021, the P&Z Board reviewed the first draft of the changes to the general provisions
section. The P&Z Board provided input to staff about the proposed revisions to the ordinance.
On August 11, 2021, the P&Z Board reviewed the first draft of the Planned Unit Development
section of the ordinance. The P&Z Board provided feedback regarding the proposed changes to
the ordinance.
On October 4, 2021, staff provided an update on the project at the Council work session.
On October 13, 2021, the P&Z Board reviewed the first draft of the zoning district sections of
the ordinance. The P&Z Board provided feedback about the proposed changes and provided
input on other potential changes to the ordinance.
On November 10, 2021, the P&Z Board reviewed driveway width, impervious surface area,
brew pub locations, garage area, side yard setbacks and porch depth to provide and input and
recommendations on changes to the ordinance.
On January 12, 2022, the P&Z Board reviewed the administrative section and provided input on
the proposed changes to clean up and refine the section.
2
On February 9, 2022, the P&Z Board reviewed the new zoning districts, agritourism and liquor
uses to provide input and recommendations on changes to the ordinance.
On March 30, 2022, the P&Z Board held a work session to review the draft zoning map changes
and provided feedback on the proposed changes.
On April 13, 2022, the P&Z Board received an update on some key items including indoor
storage, agritourism, mead, garage size and the urban transition (now called future urban
development) district.
On June 22, 2022, the P&Z Board discussed rural clusters, the future urban development district
and architecture standards.
ANALYSIS
Rural Clusters
Staff has edited the existing Rural Residential PUD requirements to allow cluster developments
as a permitted use on parcels located in the Rural (R) and Rural Executive (R-X) districts, which
are guided low density residential on the full build land use map and staged in the post-2040 area
on the staging plan. A PUD will not be required under the new language.
The rural cluster ordinance will allow 8 units per 40 acres when utilizing individual septic
systems and 12 units per 40 acres when utilizing community septic. Staff is recommending the
density bonuses as a tool to provide landowners with additional development opportunities while
preserving land for future development with urban services.
Performance standards for the rural cluster ordinance will be adopted as part of the general
provisions section to ensure that the rural cluster preserves the higher quality natural resources
and can transition effectively to urban services when they become available. The performance
standards used for the rural cluster ordinance are very similar to the existing rural planned unit
development language found in the zoning ordinance. Some of the language referenced into the
draft ordinance is from the conservation subdivision section which is being removed from the
subdivision ordinance as part of the update and the standards are being utilized as part of the new
rural cluster ordinance.
Staff has drafted a revised purpose statement for the ordinance to communicate the intent of the
ordinance. The purpose statement may be modified prior to adoption of the ordinance and the
Planning Commission may wish to provide feedback on the purpose.
The standards that have changed from the rural planned unit development include:
• Open space is no longer taken in perpetuity, but is instead held until the subject property
gains access to municipal sanitary sewer and water services.
• The density has been increased by four units per 40 acres for both the base density and
bonus density.
3
• Standards have been included for maintenance, management and replacement of
community septic systems.
• Open space is now required to include a minimum of 25 percent upland area.
• Residential lots must be large enough to support a primary and secondary septic system.
The minimum lot area for lots on community systems is proposed at 20,000 square feet.
The performance standards are included as an attachment to this report in both a clean draft and
redline draft version. The ordinance will be a repeal and replace, but the redlines are provided to
help the Board understand how the existing rural planned unit development standards will be
modified for the new rural cluster ordinance.
Staff is still working on refining the language to be concise and clear and minor changes to the
draft ordinance may be included with the final draft of the ordinance for adoption.
SUMMARY
The Board should review the recommendations by staff and provide direction on any other
desired changes.
RECOMMENDATION
Provide feedback to staff on the zoning ordinance updates.

(e) For any development with a community sewage treatment system, the City shall
require documentation that the property association shall be responsible for liability insurance
and costs associated with the maintenance and operation of a community sewage treatment
system. The City shall also require an agreement that if the association is not maintaining the
system or the system is not operating properly, the City can undertake needed repair and
2-48
maintenance and assess the property owners for the costs of such action.Residential lots shall be
sited in a manner that preserves existing significant tree cover on the site.
(f) The lots of a neighborhood may be arranged so that a majority of the principal
structures will take visual advantage of an identifiable feature, building, structure, greenway,
wetland, woods, lake, stream or other open space which could be described as a view shed.
(g) The lots may be arranged that the principal structures face a local street enhanced
with landscaping, street trees, boulevards, medians or other landscaping techniques appropriate
to the city's street design standards.
