Concept Plan Approval: Heritage Farm; Applicant: Herzfeld, Inc. <br />Planner Terwedo summarized her Planner's Report dated 2-4-97 indicating this is an Open <br />Space Development Concept Plan, requested by Bob Herzfeld, Herzfeld Inc, for a 46-unit mixed <br />residential use subdivision located west of Manning Avenue and South of 30th Street. <br />Tim Freeman, Folz, Freeman, Dupay & Assoc., presented the concept plan for Heritage Farm <br />which showed 44 new housing units proposed and two existing homes on 99.4 acres. There are <br />36 single family detached homes and 8 attached single family units. At their February 3rd <br />meeting, the Parks Commission recommended denial of a 7-acre parcel planned for a park in <br />this development. Mr. Freeman submitted a copy of the Model Pipeline Setback Ordinance from <br />Department of Public Safety Office of Pipeline Safety. <br />A letter was submitted by Mark Ryan and Roy Fuhrmann, Metropolitan Airports Commission, <br />indicating the concept plan appears quite acceptable to MAC given the fact that much of the area <br />of concern to MAC will remain free of development due to the City's Open Space Preservation <br />District's requirements.

The Council <br />indicated these reasons were resolved in Mr. Freeman's presentation. <br />Also, submitted was a letter from Joe Lux, Washington County Public Works Dept., asking the <br />City to require dedication of additional right-of-way totaling 110 feet from the existing centerline of <br />CSAH 15, with access control, as part of the subdivision process. This Is a long term planning <br />need --there are no plans to upgrade Manning Avenue in the immediate future, but felt that it is <br />prudent to require this dedication as lands are subdivided, <br />M/S/P DeLapp/Hunt - to approve Case No. OPC/97-7 based on the findings stated in the City <br />Planner's report dated February 4, 1997 and to deny the request of Washington County Public <br />Works for a dedication of additional right-of-way totaling 110 feet from the existing centerline of <br />CSAH 15 based on this is an uncompensated takings from the landowner and would change the <br />
