ITEM 9: DRIVEWAY ORDINANCE AMENDMENT; ORDINANCE 08-099
Community Development Director Klatt provided overview of the proposed changes requested by Council. To provide clarification as to what materials should be deemed acceptable under the City Code,
staff is suggesting an update to the City’s Driveway Standards to include the language “hot mix bituminous asphalt” as opposed to simply “bitumen.” The goal of the proposed language, “hot mix bituminous asphalt,” is to eliminate any potential confusion as to what is required.
The City is planning on investigating the rural areas to determine what is needed. Council Member Bloyer expressed his desire to postpone the amendment until spring after more investigation can be completed.
He does not believe that hot-mix may be necessary in the rural areas.
Council Member Nelson is in favor of approving the clarifying language and then review Mr. Bloyer’s concerns about the ordinance in the spring. Mr. Klatt explained that there is no harm in clarifying the
language in the meantime. Council Member Smith is okay with passing tonight, but wants it looked at
similar to Mr. Bloyer.
MOTION: Mayor Pearson moved TO ADOPT ORDINANCE 08-099, CLARIFYING WHAT
CONSTITUTES ACCEPTABLE DRIVEWAY MATERIALS IN THE DRIVEWAY STANDARDS SECTION OF THE CITY CODE. Council Member Reeves seconded the motion. MOTION PASSED 5-0.
Mr. Zuleger noted that investigation is expected to begin in April when the snow is gone.

Page 2 of 5
LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MINUTES
FEBRUARY 05, 2014
City Engineer Griffin gave overview of the proposed project and the scope of the work by providing a recap of the feasibility study from 1/06/2014.
Council Member Smith asked about how long the rural roads last until being required to be reconstructed.
Mr. Griffin explained that it depends on the original construction which varies greatly. Whether concrete curb and gutters were being used in each area was explained. It was noted that when an engineered road
base and drainage layer are installed, the structural road base is expected to last 40-50 years before being
replaced.
Mr. Griffin gave recap of proposed assessments for project. Mr. Griffin explained the cost recovery
strategy regarding the West Lakeland properties that are not located in Lake Elmo but access Manning
Trail and the West Lakeland section of Manning Trail that was left unimproved. West Lakeland is willing to enter a joint services agreement to improve this section and cover the un-assessable properties.
The difference in bituminous versus concrete curb and gutter was further explained. Mr. Griffin’s opinion
is that concrete is a much better product and any savings for bituminous are not realized in the long run. He noted that on the 2012 Street Improvement project the City had to install concrete curb and gutter
around cul-de-sacs to ensure positive drainage. Mr. Griffin gave overview of the assessed properties and the respective amortization schedule. The project schedule was also explained.
Road widths and any cost savings realized in width reduction were discussed. Recently, narrowing roads
ended up seeing an increased cost in past projects. Also, rural sections pose additional problems with narrower roads.
Council Member Reeves asked how the public meeting went. Mr. Griffin said that attendance was good.
MOTION: Council Member Nelson moved TO OPEN PUBLIC HEARING. Council Member Reeves seconded the motion. MOTION PASSED 5-0. Public hearing opened at 8:00 pm.
Joan Moseman 24th St. Ct. N. inquired about how the water would drain in the cul-de-sacs. City
Engineer Griffin said that the intent of the project is to drain the road, but due to the stage where the project is at, surveys have not been done. That specific determination will take place at a later stage.
MOTION: Council Member Smith moved TO CLOSE PUBLIC HEARING. Council Member Nelson seconded the motion. MOTION PASSED 5-0. Public hearing closed at 8:02 pm.
MOTION: Council Member Smith moved TO ADOPT RESOLUTION NO. 2014-10, ORDERING THE
2014 STREET IMPROVEMENTS AND THE PREPARATION OF PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS.
Council Member Reeves seconded the motion. MOTION PASSED 3-2 (Nelson/Bloyer – Nay).
MOTION: Council Member Reeves moved TO APPROVE A PROFESSIONAL ENGINEERING
DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION SUPPORT SERVICES CONTRACT TO BOLTON & MENK, INC.
IN THE NOT TO EXCEED AMOUNT OF $79,935. Council Member Smith seconded the motion.
MOTION PASSED 5-0.
ITEM 11: SKETCH PLAN REVIEW – EASTON VILLAGE
Community Development Director Klatt provided overview of the submitted sketch plan. Development will be located in the Village planning area. It is situated on a unique property as it has multiple
constraints: Union Pacific Railroad, Lake Elmo Airport, and Manning Avenue are all adjacent. Property
consists of 98 acres and proposes to include 224 single family lots. The gross/net densities were explained. The property specifics and amount of open space were discussed. It was noted that applicant
also owns the property north of the RR tracks for future phases and storm water management.
Mr. Klatt gave further information on the parameters of the airport zoning. The proposed plan does comply with airport zoning requirements. Staff is asking applicant to provide additional draining info for
preliminary plat.

LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MINUTES
FEBRUARY 05, 2014
Planning Commission reviewed the sketch plan on 1/27/2014. Parks Commission reviewed on 1/30/2014. Parks commission would prefer dedication fees in lieu of a new larger park. It would also be in favor of a few smaller pocket or neighborhood parks. Overall, the Parks Commission would like the dedication fees
be used to improve or connect to Reid Park and the Old Village. Council Member Reeves expounded on the Parks Commission’s preferences. They took a very holistic view of the neighborhood and primarily
focusing on the parks and connections.
The length of the cul-de-sacs was discussed. There are 3 or 4 proposed that do not currently meet the city
requirements. Council Member Smith wants neighborhood to be more walk-able, as that was the vision
for the Village. Planning Commission Chair wants the Planning Commission to discuss the cul-de-sacs at
next meeting.
Todd Erickson, engineer for project, provided his overview of the proposal.
Mayor Pearson stated that he is in agreement with much of the Parks Commission input regarding
connectivity. The collector road entering neighborhood and the access to 30th Street should be
reevaluated.
Mr. Reeves noted that this is the first development in the Village and will set the pace.
The issue of neighborhood interaction was discussed vis-à-vis cul-de-sacs versus grid plans.
Steve DeLapp 8468 Lake Jane Trail spoke about the proposal. He reiterated that Village connectivity was
really important. Concerns about the location and related challenges must be addressed.
No formal action requested.
ITEM 12: APPROVAL OF AGREEMENT TO SUNSET MEMORANDUM OF
UNDERSTANDING WITH THE METROPOLITAN COUNCIL
City Administrator Zuleger explained the letter from the Met Council outlining the terms of termination
and the history of how the MOU came about. Terms include: Proof of payment for Section 34 development improvements and Lake Elmo Ave Sewer Infrastructure. City is anticipating complying in mid-March. Noted that if the MOU goes away, the City only has to live with the 2040 forecast. Staff
recommends acceptance. It was explained that the obligation to grow will still remain post-MOU because the infrastructure is in the ground and has to be paid for.
Todd Ptacek 812 Julep Ave. N. spoke about the history of NIMBY in community. He is concerned
about increased traffic on and south of 10th St. He urged Council to go forwardly prudently.
Mayor Pearson concurs with the shared sentiment that this is a great day for the City. Council Member
Smith noted that this will relieve much pressure in the I-94 Corridor. Council Member Bloyer reiterated
his opinion that development in the rest of Lake Elmo needs to be addressed so the City can be built out on its own terms and done with trying to comply with similar future Met Council mandates on growth.
Ms. Smith read letter Council received from Kathy Sedro, 8916 35th Street N., requesting the
government choose the minimum growth numbers while complying with legal commitments. Mr. Bloyer read letter from resident Curt Montieth, 331 Julep Ave N., requesting the Council to limit all future
development in the city, impose strict open space requirements, high standards, and require 2.5 acre lots
in areas outside of the Village. The letter also requested sufficient recreation spaces.
Mr. Zuleger thanked planning staff for all the hard work over the past year to achieve this.
MOTION: Council Member Smith moved TO CONCUR WITH THE TERMS OF TERMINATION OF
THE MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING BETWEEN THE METROPOLITAN COUNCIL
AND THE CITY OF LAKE ELMO DATED JANUARY 14, 2014, AND INSTRUCT THE CITY

PLANNING COMMISSION
DATE: 2/10/14
AGENDA ITEM: 4A – PUBLIC HEARING
CASE # 2014 - 06
ITEM: Zoning Map Amendment – Savona Subdivision
SUBMITTED BY: Kyle Klatt, Community Development Director
REVIEWED BY: Nick Johnson, City Planner
SUMMARY AND ACTION REQUESTED:
The Planning Commission is being asked to hold a public hearing for a Zoning Map Amendment related to the Savona Subdivision being proposed by Lennar Homes. Now that the property owners have an approved Preliminary Plat application and utilities are now available to the site, the
applicants are requesting to rezone the properties in a manner consistent with the City’s
Comprehensive Plan. Staff is recommending that the Planning Commission recommend approval of
the Zoning Map Amendment request.
REQUEST DETAILS
In a typical subdivision process, applicants will usually request a rezoning action along with a
Preliminary Plat application. However, as utilities were not available to the site of the proposed
Savona Subdivision at the time of Preliminary Plat approval, the City postponed the rezoning action. At this time, Lennar Homes has now submitted an application for Final Plat for the first phase of their residential subdivision, which includes 44 single family homes. In preparation of
this approval the city is also recommending that the Zoning Map be amended along with Final
Plat approval.
As part of the Zoning Map Amendment request, there are 4 total parcels that are included in the proposed action. The parcels are located in Phase 1 of the I-94 Corridor Planning Area and are associated with the Savona Preliminary Plat. The Property Identification Numbers (PINs) for the
subject parcels (from west to east) are the following: 34.029.21.31.0004, 34.029.21.31.0005,
34.029.21.42.0002, and 34.029.21.41.0004. The parcels are currently zoned Rural Development
Transitional District (RT). As proposed in the rezoning action, the first three parcels are proposed to be rezoned Urban Low Density Residential – LDR. The fourth parcel, the former Mulligan Masters site, is proposed to be split between Urban Low Density Residential – LDR
and Urban Medium Density Residential – MDR along the boundary of the future minor collector
road 5th Street. The proposed zoning is consistent with the approved Preliminary Plat for the
Savona Subdivision, as well as the City’s Comprehensive Plan (Attachment #3). Given that utilities are now available to the site due to the near completion of the Section 34 Utility Project, and the landowner is now applying for Final Plat for the first phase of the subdivision, now is the
appropriate time to move forward with the rezoning action.

RECCOMENDATION:
Staff is recommending that the Planning Commission recommend approval of the Zoning Map Amendment through the following motion:
“Move to recommend approval of the Zoning Map Amendment to rezone the parcels associated
with the Savona residential subdivision from Rural Development Transitional District to Urban Low Density Residential and Urban Medium Density Residential.”
