,roan service areas, there are several things happening in and around the Savona subdivision that will
have an impact on the project,including the larger assessment project that will bring water and sewer
services into this area,the ongoing work to plan for a significant minor collector road to meet the
transportation needs of this area, and the plans from adjacent property owners to develop their
properties. Given the location of the subdivision in an area that will be seeing significant changes in
the near future, Staff recognizes that this initial plat will have a number of issues that will need to be
resolved in the future.
The City has received a detailed list of comments from the City Engineer and the Washington
County concerning the proposed subdivision, in addition to general comments from the Valley
Branch Watershed District,Building Official,and the Fire Chief, all of which are attached for
consideration by the Commission.
In addition to the general comments that have been provided in the preceding sections of this report,
Staff would like the Planning Commission to consider the issues and comments related to the
following discussion areas as well:
• Comprehensive Plan. The proposed subdivision is consistent with the Lake Elmo
Comprehensive Plan for this area and with the densities that were approved as part of this
plan. The net densities for the development fall within the ranges allowed for the urban low
density and urban medium density land use categories. Furthermore, the overall number of
REC units planned matches the overall numbers that were used for projecting the unit counts
in this area. Other aspects of the Comprehensive Plan relate to the Savona subdivision as
follows:
o Transportation. The City's transportation plan calls for the construction of a minor
collector road that will connect the eastern and western portions of the I-94 Corridor.
Staff views this road as a critical piece of the transportation infrastructure that is
needed to serve the densities that have been planned for this area. Lennar has
incorporated the right-of-way at the width necessary to construct the minor collector
as part of its preliminary plat.
o Parks. The City's park plan identifies proposed locations for neighborhood parks
based on the anticipated population that should be served by each park. In addition to
the existing Stonegate Park, the plan calls for at least two additional parks in the
vicinity of the Savona Plat, one in the middle of the proposed development area and
one off the applicant's site closer to Goose Lake. As noted earlier by Staff,the Park
Commission did review the Savona sketch plan and generally agreed with concept of
having a smaller"pocket/neighborhood"park serve the subdivision along with a
series of trails providing connections to the Stonegate Park and other local and
regional parks and trails.
o Water. Water will eventually be provided to this area via a future extension of the
system along Inwood Avenue. The Savona subdivision will be able to be served
under the City's current agreement with the City of Oakdale until the Inwood
extension is completed.
o Sanitary Sewer. Lennar will be required to connect to the sewer main being
constructed as part of the Section 34 area wide assessment project. In this case, all of
the property owners that are planned to be served by sanitary sewer have petitioned
