AGENDA ITEM: Inwood 8th Addition - Preliminary Plat, PUD, and Comprehensive Plan
Amendment
REVIEWED BY: Jason Stopa, Community Development Director
Sophia Jensen, City Planner
BACKGROUND:
The City of Lake Elmo received a request from M/I Homes, to develop several vacant outlots of the
Inwood preliminary plat. Inwood is one of the City’s largest Master Planned Unit Developments. When
the initial Inwood Preliminary Plat was approved in December 2014, the development was planned to
contain 275 single family residential lots in the northeast side of the development, 264 multi-family
residential units in the southeast, and approximately 90,000 square feet of commercial space on the west
side of the development. A City Park, Ivywood Park, was also created on land dedicated to the City just
north of 5th St. N.
Since the initial approval of the Inwood PUD, all the planned single-family homes were constructed in 5
consecutive phases, followed by one commercial project, the Kwik Trip at Inwood Avenue and 5th Street
North. This phase of the Inwood project would include a 123 unit apartment west of Island Trail, and
149 attached townhomes primarily east of Island Trail for a total of 272 units.
The following applications were required for this project:
1. Preliminary Plat – An amendment to the exist PUD requires a Preliminary and Final Plat.
2. PUD – The land uses in this development are consistent with the City’s zoning district, High
Density Residential. At the time that the Planned Unit Development was initially approved for
this development, the City did not establish any flexibility for this property through the PUD
Ordinance. Therefore, any flexibility required to the City’s standards will be required to go back
through the PUD review process.
3. Comprehensive Plan Amendment – The overall site is split in terms of future land use
guidance. The western portion of the site exceeds the permitted density, and the Metropolitan
Council restricts projects from blending densities across future land use areas. The proposed
density will be permitted through a change in the Future Land Use, through the Comprehensive
Plan amendment process. The Comprehensive Plan Amendment will cover the entire site.
ISSUE BEFORE THE PLANNING COMMISSION:
The Planning Commission is being asked to review the preliminary plat, PUD, and comprehensive plan
amendment requests to either table for further consideration or to make a recommendation to the City
Council.

PROPOSAL DETAILS/ANALYSIS:
Site Data.
Total Site Area 19.27 acres
Total Wetland Area 0 acres
Total Units 272 units
Overall Net Density 14.12 units/acres
Comprehensive Plan Conformance.
A comprehensive plan amendment is proposed by the developer to reguide the land west of Island Trail
from Mixed Use Commercial to High Density Residential. The primary reason is to allow for the
residential net density to be blended across this part of the Inwood development.
The Inwood Townhomes project is currently proposed across two different Future Land Use Categories.
East of Island Trail, the future land use is designated as High Density Residential (HDR) which allows
residential uses at a density range of between 8.01-15 units per acre. West of Island Trail, the future land
use designation is Mixed Use Commercial (MU-C), which allows a density range of 10-15 units per
acre. On their own, the two different parts of the development would have a net density of over 21 units
per acre on the west side of Island Trail and 11.4 units per acre on the east side of Island Trail.
Collectively, the entire project’s net density is 14.12 units per acre which is within the allowable density
of both future land use categories.
This development had an approved preliminary plat and EAW which both anticipated this level of
density. Additionally, the entire project is below the maximum density in both future land use
categories. Staff are therefore supportive of the request to amend the City’s comprehensive plan.
3
Land Use(s).
The City’s zoning map indicates that the subject property is zoned High Density Residential (HDR) with
a PUD overlay. The proposed land uses, Multifamily Residential and Single Family Attached
(townhomes), are permitted with conditions in the underlying HDR zoning district.
After a review of the Inwood PUD ordinance, staff have concluded that no PUD flexibilities or other
standards were created for this part of the overall Inwood Development Project. Therefore, the zoning
requirements for this property are all determined based on all current applicable standards from Lake
Elmo City Code.
Environmental Review. This project is covered under an existing Environmental Assessment
Worksheet (EAW) originally prepared for the Inwood Development at the time of the Inwood
Preliminary Plat. Staff have reviewed the EAW and determined it accounted for the number of units and
intensity of development proposed in this phase of the Inwood development. Furthermore, this project
does not trigger a mandatory EAW on its own under Minnesota state rules. No further environmental
review is required.
Project Phasing. As proposed, the Townhome portion of the development would be constructed in
three separate phases, with the first phase beginning in 2025. The apartment building is not included in
the phasing plan or narrative, but is assumed by staff be included as part of the project’s first phase as it
will be constructed by a separate developer, Rachel Development.
PUD Minimum Requirements.
The Developer is proposing private drives, which are allowed by a Conditional Use Permit by
ordinance, but which create a need for other flexibilities based on the lack of street frontage to the
residential units. A PUD is a negotiated zoning district, and according to the Lake Elmo Zoning Code
Article 18, Planned Unit Development Regulations, zoning flexibility can be granted in order to better
utilize site features and to obtain a higher quality of development.
City Code establishes minimum thresholds a project must meet in order to qualify as a PUD. Staff has
found that the proposed development does meet the following minimum requirements of a PUD:
a. Lot Area: The site area exceeds the minimum lot area for of five acres for a PUD development.
b. Open Space: The PUD ordinance indicates that at least 20% of the development area not within
roadway corridors is to be reserved as open space.
c. Street Layout: In existing developed area, the PUD should maintain the existing street grid,
where present, and restore the street grid where it has been disrupted. In newly developing areas,
streets shall be designed to maximize connectivity in each cardinal direction, except where
environmental or physical constraints make this infeasible. All streets shall terminate at other
streets, at public land, or at a park or other community facility, except that local streets may
terminate in stub streets when those will be connected to other streets in future phases of the
development or adjacent developments.
PUD Identified Objectives.
When evaluating a PUD proposal, the City must find a PUD meets one or more objectives contained in
Article 18, which are listed below:
4
a. Innovation in land development techniques that may be more suitable for a given parcel than
conventional approaches.
b. Promotion of integrated land uses, allowing for a mixture of residential, commercial, and public
facilities.
c. Establishment of appropriate transitions between differing land uses.
d. Provision of more adequate, usable, and suitably located open space, recreational amenities,
natural resource protection and other public facilities than would otherwise be provided under
conventional land development techniques.
e. Accommodation of housing of all types with convenient access to employment opportunities
and/or commercial facilities; and especially to create additional opportunities for lifecycle
housing to all income and age groups.
f. Preservation and enhancement of important environmental features through careful and sensitive
placement of buildings and facilities.
g. Coordination of architectural styles and building forms to achieve greater compatibility within
the development and surrounding land uses.
h. Creation of more efficient provision of public utilities and services, lessened demand on
transportation, and the promotion of energy resource conservation.
i. Establishing measures to protect and preserve groundwater storage.
j. Allowing the development to operate in concert with a redevelopment plan in certain areas of the
City and to ensure the redevelopment goals and objectives will be achieved.
In their narrative, the applicant claims to meet all identified objectives. Staff find that the development
may not meet all objectives, but could support findings for meeting b, c, e, and g.

Specific standards for Single Family Attached in the HDR. City Code Section 105.12.740 (j)
contains standards for attached townhome units in the HDR Zoning District. The Development meets
requirements for buildings to be below ten units, and adequate open space is provided. The City’s
standards require buildings to front a public street with 15’ of frontage and with no parking between the
building and street. Private drives are permitted by the City’s ordinance through a conditional use
permit. The private lots are all greater than 15’ wide and front a private drive. The only project element
not meeting Section 105.12.740(j) are the townhomes along the south side of Street C which are not
double fronted, and would have parking between the private street and the front of the homes. PUD
Flexibility is requested by the Developer to this standard.
Specific standards for Multifamily Dwellings in the HDR. City Code Section 105.12.740 (k) requires
that parking be screened from the public streets and that common open space of a minimum 200 square
feet per unit. Both design standards are met by this proposed project.
Design Guideline Conformance. City Code Section 105.12.840 requires design review against
standards in the Lake Elmo Design Standards Manual. The proposed housing types are provided in the
packet and include elevations and floor plans. Staff review of conformance is below:
Townhome Site Design
• Building placement – Buildings are oriented perpendicular to the street, with entrances oriented
towards the street where possible. Outside of the buildings along 5th Street N and Island Trail,
building entrances are not provided directly onto a public street.
• Streetscape – Concrete sidewalks are provided through the development, but do not run along a
public street. Buildings along proposed street C are primarily loaded with driveways facing the
street with no frontage on a public street. No site furnishings such as benches or open areas are
identified on the site plans.
• Landscaping – Overstory trees will not meet the City’s boulevard tree spacing standard of one
tree every 50’. Landscaping with shallow root systems which will not impact utility service lines
should be planted between driveways to screen mechanical and HVAC equipment. Preservation
of existing trees will help the development blend in with the existing development along the 5th
Street North Corridor.
• Parking – All parking would be in enclosed spaces or on driveways and would not impede
pedestrian movement. Street parking is proposed as 90-degree stalls, however staff would
recommend parallel parking instead, also to be located in bump-outs where driveways are not
present.
Townhome Building Design
• Form and Façade – Buildings are proposed with architecture consistent throughout the site, and
the surrounding areas. Facades are articulated with little or no blank wall space. The front-loaded
townhomes on the south side of “Street C” are inconsistent with standards requiring that parking
be rear loaded. Garages are not recessed although that is a requirement of the design standards.
• Building Materials – Vinyl siding is prohibited by the City’s design standards and approval
would be required through the proposed PUD. Otherwise, design and color appear to be
generally consistent with standards for townhomes.
6
• Mass and Scale – Buildings are articulated to create the appearance of multiple structures. Due to
the private street design approach, buildings are located more closely together than nearby
residential development, creating a denser appearance.
• Roof Design, Entries, Lighting – Features proposed are consistent with City standards for this
type of construction.
• Signage – No signage appears to be proposed on the site plan and is thus not reviewed as part of
this project.
Apartment Building Site Design
• Building placement – The building is oriented to both 5th Street North and Island Trail.
• Streetscape – Better connectivity could be provided from the north side of the apartment to 5th
Street North for people choosing to walk or bike to area commercial amenities. Otherwise this
part of the development complies with streetscaping requirements.
• Landscaping – Overstory trees will line the edges of this site along the public right of way with
additional tree plantings and open space exceeding minimum requirements.
• Parking – The parking is central to the apartment site and is fully screened from public right of
way.
Apartment Building Design
• Form and Façade – The apartment building facades are articulated with blank wall space
minimized. No parking is proposed between the façade and street, meeting design standards.
• Building Materials – Materials and finishes are generally of quality with colors consistent with a
requirement for earth or muted tones.
• Mass and Scale – Given the surrounding land uses of the apartment building site, the scale and
mass of the building is an appropriate transition to lower intensity residential land uses east of
the site.
• Roof Design, Entries, Lighting – features proposed are consistent with City standards for this
type of construction and site layout.
• Signage – No signage appears to be proposed on the site plan and is thus not reviewed as part of
this project.
Parks and Trails. The City Code requires park land dedication for all new residential developments. The
City may also determine that land is not necessary and accept a cash fee in lieu for the purpose of
enhancing the existing park and trail system. The development plans identify a public trail running east to
west across the south side of the development. This trail does not meet the City’s trail corridor
requirements, and is not included in the City’s trail system plans. Therefore, Staff are not supportive of
approving a trail credit and suggest the developer revise the plans to include a concrete sidewalk in order
to facilitate pedestrian connectivity around the site.
At its meeting on March 17, 2025, the City’s Park Commission discussed the proposed development and
made a recommendation to the City Council for acceptance of cash in lieu of land. Any park land or cash
dedication would be subject to a credit from dedication of Ivywood park in previous additions of the
Inwood development. Staff recommend acceptance of cash in lieu of park land given proximity of this
project to an existing park.
7
Subdivision Signs. Section 105.12.430 allows 1 subdivision sign per entrance to the residential
development. One primary sign is allowed with a maximum sign area of 32 sq. ft. and all other signs must
be 24 sq. ft. or less. No signs are currently identified on the development plans. Staff suggest a condition
of approval to clarify that no flexibility is granted for signage and that sign permits are required if and
when any signage is proposed.
Tree Preservation. There is an existing stand of primarily pine and spruce trees on the east side of the
property. The Developer is proposing to remove one tree and to preserve the rest. No mitigation is
required. It will be the developer’s responsibility to coordinate with city development staff to
appropriately install tree protections at the grading limits.
Landscaping. The City’s Landscape Architect has reviewed the planting plan for conformance with the
City’s ordinance. The Applicant is currently showing enough trees to meet the City’s Code, although the
planting locations are not always desirable based on the spatial constraints of the proposed development.
The number of housing units and non-standard width of the private road corridors between buildings
compresses the area for plantings to be located, and some are in locations that could cause conflicts with
drainage or future street and utility maintenance. The development does not meet requirements for 50’
spacing of boulevard (street tree) plantings.
Buffering and Screening. Given the location of this property adjacent to more intense land use, there is
not a requirement for the developer to screen their land use under City Code Section 105.12.480 (f). This
is because the more intensive land use (the Bremer services lot) is the one required by code to provide
screening.
Some consideration of the land use to the south, Bremer, is recommended in order to reduce potential
conflicts related to the parking lot such as headlights. Landscaping along the southern lot line could be
considered, as could repositioning the units to be rear loaded and served by an alley. That would help
reduce the conflicts by positioning garage door openings in the areas most impacted.
Irrigation. An irrigation plan was provided with the submittal. This phase of the Inwood development is
not proposed to utilize stormwater reuse. The Lake Elmo City Council has required stormwater reuse in
recent developments. As this project was never envisioned to be served by stormwater reuse when it was
originally approved, retroactively requiring it would cause additional costs that are not understood at this
time. The added costs which would ultimately be borne by the homebuyers or renters or could cause the
project to be no longer viable as proposed.
Shoreland Standards. This project is located in the City’s Shoreland Overlay District. A buffer of 300’
surrounds an unnamed tributary on the southeast corner of the Inwood Development. Some minor
overlap exists between the shoreland overlay and improvements (driveway and parking area) on the
proposed apartment lot. The City’s staff has clarified with the Minnesota DNR that no shoreland
variances are needed because improvements within the master planned Inwood Development are well
below the 30% impervious surface maximum allowed in sewered districts.
Off-Street Parking, Multifamily. City code requires one space per one bedroom unit, and two spaces
for all units over 2 bedrooms. An additional one space for every four units is required for visitor parking.
The Apartment site provides 123 enclosed stalls and 98 surface parking stalls for a total of 221 stalls.
8
There are 55 units with 2 or more bedrooms, and 68 that have one bedroom. Therefore City’s code
requires a total of 209 stalls, which includes 31 stalls of visitor parking. At least one stall per unit is
enclosed with 123 stalls of proposed parking.
Off-Street Parking, Single-Family Attached. Since all of the attached townhome units will have more
than 2 bedrooms, the City’s code will require two spaces per unit. City code will also require an
additional 30 parking spaces for visitors (10% of total parking required). The spaces required for parking
the units will be found in the two-car garages provided with each unit. The driveways for each unit have
been required to be deep enough to support an additional two parking spaces per unit. The parking
proposed for the townhome units will satisfy the amount required by city code.
Traffic and Access. Since the proposed land uses are consistent with the anticipated density range of
future development and access spacing requirements of the City, no further study will be required to
understand the traffic impacts. The City Engineer has anticipated needs for turn lanes and secondary
access to all units, which is reflected in the proposed plans and the forthcoming City Engineering memo.
Lighting. A photometric plan was provided for the apartment building. The plan shows that the building
complies with city code. All lighting fixtures proposed in the development will be required to be
downcast and compliant with applicable lighting standards.
PROPOSED PUD DEVIATIONS AND REVIEW.
The following list summarizes the proposed deviations from City Code that would be approved with this
PUD as presented:
1. Minimum lot size for multifamily apartment building
2. Front and rear yard setbacks for townhome lots
3. Impervious Surface for attached townhome lots
4. Building setback from 5th Street North
5. Attached Townhomes not fronting a public street
6. Boulevard Tree Spacing a minimum of every 50’
7. Parking between front façade of attached townhomes and the street (lots along southern project
boundary)
8. Lake Elmo Design Standards Manual
o Vinyl siding proposed on attached townhomes
o Access to apartment buildings is not located along a public street frontage
Other or related staff concerns with the development include the following
• The plans do not exceed standards for landscaping, and in some cases, landscaping is fit into
tight spaces where it may not be viable long term.
• Sidewalks and trees are located very close to buildings and/or easements.
• The streetscape will lack trees/greenspace and be mostly paved driveway areas.
• Parallel Street parking is suggested along streets to create a better streetscape and maximize
green space.
• Except for an existing wooded area, the open space serving the attached townhomes east of
Island Trail largely consists of stormwater swales or mandatory setbacks between buildings.
Although it could technically meet minimum standards, this development is not providing high
quality open spaces or streetscapes.
9
• The proposed rear loaded design has created a combination of a street and alley, which does not
conform with the design standards in city code or guidelines. The site could be redesigned to
include a combination of public streets with private drives/alleys to create truly double-fronted
lots with better streetscaping.
• Access from the apartment building to the commercial uses west and north is lacking. The site
plan should be modified to make better use of the open space to the north of the building to both
connect the building to the sidewalk along 5th street north and possibly provide some amenities
to activate the open space.
• Screening of the parking lot to the south should be considered. Staff anticipate conflicts with the
parking area of Bremer financial.
PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT AND PRELIMINARY PLAT FINDINGS.
At this time staff are not supportive of the request as proposed given the concerns identified in the
section above. Staff therefore recommend the City require the plans to be modified in order to more
closely conform with the City’s ordinances.
City Code Article XVIII provides for the requirements and process to approve a Planned Unit
Development. To approve a PUD, the project will need to meet minimum standards for a PUD found in
Section 105.12.1150 and meet at least one identified objective in section 105.12.1130. Both sections are
provided above in this report.
The process for the review of preliminary plats is established in City Code Section 103.00.090. A
development should be approved only if it does not meet the criteria for denial as follows:
• That the proposed subdivision is in conflict with the city's comprehensive plan, development
code, capital improvements program, or other policy or regulation.
• That the physical characteristics of the site, including, but not limited to, topography, vegetation,
susceptibility to erosion and siltation, susceptibility to flooding, water storage, and retention, are
such that the site is not suitable for the type or intensity of development or use contemplated.
• That the design of the subdivision or the proposed improvements are likely to cause substantial
and irreversible environmental damage.
• That the design of the subdivision or the type of improvements will be detrimental to the health,
safety, or general welfare of the public.
• That the design of the subdivision or the type of improvement will conflict with easements on
record or with easements established by judgment of a court.
• That the subdivision is premature as determined by the standards of this title.
The Planning Commission is asked to create findings of fact in support of recommended action to the
City Council. Considerations for findings include the following:
• Is the project consistent with the City’s Comprehensive Plan?
• Is the project consistent with the City’s subdivision ordinance and criteria for approval or denial?
• Is the project consistent with the City’s minimum requirements and identified objectives for
Planned Unit Developments?
• Is the project conforming with the City’s zoning ordinance and design standards?
• How might the project impact surrounding land uses?
10
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT FINDINGS.
The process for the review of Comprehensive Plan Amendments is established in City Code Section
3.12.280 and Minnesota State Statutes. While specific findings are not established in that ordinance,
staff recommend the following findings:
1. That the applicant has submitted a request to the City of Lake Elmo to amend the Comprehensive
Plan in accordance with the procedures as established by the Lake Elmo Planning Department and
the Lake Elmo Planning Commission; and
2. That the request is to amend the Map 3-3, Future Land Use Map to change the future land use
category of the parcel addressed 8699 5th St N, with the PID 3302921130028, from Mixed Use
Commercial to High Density Residential; and
3. That the proposed amendment is consistent with the overall goals and objectives of the Lake Elmo
Comprehensive Plan.
4. That the proposed amendment is consistent with the preliminary plat for the Inwood Development
granted by the Lake Elmo City Council on December 2, 2014.

INWOOD TOWNHOMES COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT, PRELIMINARY PLAT, DEVELOPMENT STAGE PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT REQUESTS
Inwood Townhomes Page 1 INTRODUCTION M/I Homes of Minneapolis/St. Paul, LLC (M/I Homes) is submitting application for a Comprehensive Plan Amendment, Preliminary Plat, Development Stage Planned Unit Development (PUD) Plan for a development containing 149 townhomes and a 123-unit apartment building. M/I Homes will be constructing the townhomes and partnering with Rachel Development, Inc. for the apartment building. Townhomes and an apartment building were shown on the approved Inwood preliminary planned unit development plans, and the Inwood Preliminary Plat and Planned Unit Development (PUD) Resolution 2014-94 approved the PUD which includes 275 single family homes and 264 multifamily units. An Environmental Assessment Worksheet (EAW) and Traffic Study were completed and approved with the approval of this preliminary plat. M/I Homes (dba Hans Hagen Homes) developed Inwood, including the extension of sewer and water to the multi-family property, as well as the construction of 5th Street and Island Trail. M/I Homes also constructed ponding and an infiltration basin to serve the subject property. S I T E P L A N We are proposing private streets throughout the community with one street connection to 5th Street North and one connection to Island Trail. The public street-facing homes are proposed to consist of our City Collection Townhomes, which are our new rear-loaded three-story townhomes. The internal buildings and buildings that border the bank to the south will be our Carriage Collection Townhomes, which are front-loaded two-story townhomes. We have proposed a sidewalk on the southern border to connect 5th Street North to Island Trail, and sidewalk connections are provided for the rear-loaded City Collection townhomes. The proposed apartment is located on the northwest corner of the site, separated from all but one townhome building by Island Trail. M/I Homes and Rachel Development have experience working together on multi-family projects similar to this one. One such project is Marsh View which is located at 137th Avenue North in Rogers, Minnesota. An aerial photo of this development is included in this narrative. M/I Homes previously submitted a sketch plan review application to City staff and have subsequently made amendments to the proposed plan. We have revised the street layout to eliminate dead-end roadand have provided an additional access to the apartment building. We also increased the front yard setbacks from the private street from 25 feet to 30 feet. Additionally, we have combined two access points off Island Trail to one and have rotated the townhome buildings to the west of Island Trail to face the public street and have combined those buildings, creating parking in the rear. The changes resulted in the loss of 4 townhome units. C O M P R E H E N S I V E P L A N A M E N D M E N T With the 2040 Comprehensive Update (well after the entire Inwood site had an approved preliminary plat), a portion of the site to the west of Island Trail was re-guided from High Density Residential to Mixed Use Commercial, and the east side of Island Trail remained High Density Residential. This Land Use Guide Plan change was inconsistent with the approved preliminary pat for Inwood At the time of the Inwood PUD approval the City of Lake Elmo allowed the blending of densities across parcels. Since, then, however, standards have changed, and a Comprehensive Plan amendment is necessary to allow the proposed neighborhood as originally approved by the City. The parcel to the west of Island Trail has a proposed density of 21.13 units per acre, which is above the allowed maximum density of the Mixed-Use Commercial land use guidance of 15 units per acre. The east side of Island Trail proposes 141 townhomes, and with a site area of 13.1 acres, has a net density of 10.76 units per acre, which is well below the allowed density of 15 units per acre. As such, we are requesting a Comprehensive Plan Amendment to guide the parcel on the west side of Island Trail back to High Density Residential and blend the density across the entire site as originally approved in the Inwood PUD. The City’s land use plan has long designed the subject property as High Density, which occurred before any of the existing homes were built in the single-family portion of the Inwood PUD
Inwood Townhomes Page 2 Existing Land Use at time of Adoption of 2040 Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use at time of Adoption of 2040 Comprehensive Plan The proposed development is zoned High Density Residential (HDR) Re-guided area
Inwood Townhomes Page 3 The proposed development includes the following parcels: PID# 3302921140029 (12.7 acres) PID# 3302921130028 (5.7 acres) PID# 3302921420018 (0.4 acres) PID# 3302921420017 (0.5 acres) Total site acreage: 19.3 acres With 272 units, this results in a density of 14.09 units per acre, which is within the allowable density. G E N E R A L D E V E LO P M E N T S TAG E P U D / P R E L I M I N A RY P L AT The proposed development is part of the approved Inwood PUD. The development meets the City’s minimum PUD requirements in that it is larger than five acres, at least 20% of the site is open space which will be protected by a drainage and utility easement, and streets are designed to maximize connectivity in each cardinal direction. We believe the following PUD objectives are met with this site plan: 1) Innovation in land development techniques that may be more suitable for a given parcel than conventional approaches. Response: The original Inwood PUD included the use of private streets. Private streets are necessary to implement the original Inwood PUD approval. We believe the site design provides sufficient circulation and an eye-pleasing streetscape. 2) Promotion of integrated land uses, allowing for a mixture of residential, commercial and public features. Response: The Inwood PUD provides a mixture of commercial and a wide variety of housing options including single-family homes, villa homes (which are targeted towards an aging population), townhomes, and an apartment. 3) Establishment of appropriate transitions between differing land uses. Response: 5th Street North buffers the apartment site and townhomes. The townhomes are mostly buffered from the apartment by Island Trail. This is consistent with the City’s Comprehensive Plan. 4) Provision of more adequate, usable, and suitably located open space, recreational amenities, natural resource protection and other public facilities than would otherwise be provided under conventional land development techniques. Response: The Inwood PUD includes a public park and a linear trail corridor than extends from 5th Street to 10th Street. Other trails and opens space areas are incorporated into the overall Inwood PUD. Private open space areas are also incorporated into the townhome portion of the Inwood PUD 5) Accommodation of housing of all types with convenient access to employment opportunities and/or commercial facilities; and emphasized to create additional opportunities for lifecycle housing to all income and age groups. Response: See response to 2. 6) Preservation and enhancement of important environmental features through careful and sensitive placement of buildings and facilities. Response: An Environmental Assessment Worksheet, which included this site and contemplated the multifamily and townhome portion of the site, was submitted and accepted by the City as part of the approved original PUD. There are no significant environmental features on this site. 7) Coordination of architectural styles and building forms to achieve greater compatibility within the development and surrounding land uses. Response: As previously mentioned, our rear-loaded City Collection townhomes will front all public streets, providing visual interest from the single-family homes across from 5th Street
Inwood Townhomes Page 4 North. The apartment will include landscaping to provide a buffer from 5th Street North, and the parking lot is screened from 5th Street North by the apartment building itself. 8) Creation of more efficient provision of public utilities and services, lessened demand on transportation, and/or the promotion of energy resource conservation. Response: Private streets will be owned and maintained by the HOA, which will reduce demand on City infrastructure and snow removal services. 9) Establishing measures to protect and preserve groundwater storage. Response: Ponding and an infiltration basin were constructed with the development of the single-family home portion of the Inwood development. Stormwater reuse for irrigation is being utilized in the single-family portion of the site. 10) Allowing the development to operate in concert with a redevelopment plan in certain areas of the city and to ensure the redevelopment goals and objectives will be achieved. Response: This application will allow the completion of the Inwood PUD as originally approved. The following table demonstrates requested zoning flexibility. Standard HDR Zoning Standard (Single Family Attached) Proposed Minimum Lot Size 1,750 square feet (acknowledges that common lot areas will add a higher total than 1,750 square feet) 19.3 acres=840,708 square feet This divided by the number of units totals 3,090.83 square feet per unit Minimum Lot Width 20 feet 21.33 feet Minimum Front Setback 20 feet 20 feet from Island Trail and 5th Street North with 6-foot upper-level balcony encroachment abutting 5th Street North and Island Trail 30 feet to back of curb on private streets Minimum Side Setback 10 feet 20 feet between buildings1 Minimum Corner Side Setback 15 feet 20 feet1 Rear Setback 20 feet 30 feet to boundary1 Street Frontage I5 feet of street frontage This is a requested flexibility because the majority of townhome units are on private streets. Impervious Surface 75% 65% (the existing plan shows 55%) Maximum Number of Units within a Single Building 8 8 Minimum Street Frontage 15 feet We are proposing private streets, which are a conditional use per Section 105.12.740 (g)(2)(a). Common or Private Open Space 300 square feet per unit for single family attached (300 X 149 = 44,700 square feet or 1.03 acres) and 200 square feet per unit for multifamily (200 X 123 = 24,600 square feet or 0.56 acres) or 1.59 acres total 8.63 acres of open space, which excludes the public park and open space areas already dedicated to the City as part of the Inwood PUD.
Inwood Townhomes Page 5 Private Streets Private Streets are an allowed conditional use in the HDR district. We are proposing 24-foot-wide private streets with 30-foot front yard setbacks. Driveway setbacks No driveway or curb cute shall be less than 50 feet from any right-of-way line of any street intersections. A driveway must be at least five feet from any side lot line. We are requesting flexibility from these standards, as these are private streets that will only be used by this development’s residents and their visitors. Garage Design Guidelines Attached garages are encouraged to be side or rear loaded All townhomes that abut public right-of-way are proposed to be our City Collection townhomes, which have rear-loaded garages. The Carriage collection, which does not meet this guideline, only abuts a private street, and the garage will not be visible from the property to the south. Parking Multifamily: One space per one bedroom unit and two spaces per two-bedroom unit or larger (66 studio and one-bedroom units and 57 two-bedroom units or larger=180 required) and one space per four units for visitor parking (123X0.25=31, 211 total) Single-family attached: Ten percent of parking spaces for visitor parking (149X0.1=15 visitor spaces Multi Family: 99 above ground and 123 underground parking spaces (222 total) Single-family attached: Two garage and two driveway parking spaces plus 34 visitor spaces for single family attached dwellings 1. City standards do not contemplate individually platted units on private streets with surrounding commons area, which leads to noncompliance with strict interpretation of the code. D E S I G N S TA N DA R D S The following demonstrates how the proposed plan meets the City’s design standards: • Buildings are located as close to and easily accessible by the street as possible while still meeting setback requirement with allowed flexibility. • Common open spaces are located at the interior and rear of the site. • Sidewalks are provided parallel to the street and provide interconnectivity within the development. • Parking is screened from public streets. • Townhomes that front a public street are rear loaded. • Buildings provide multiple roof lines and visual interest. P H A S I N G We are proposing to begin construction on the first phase in spring of 2025, the second phase in the spring of 2026, and the third phase in spring of 2027.
Inwood Townhomes Page 6 L A N D S CA P I N G / T R E E P R E S E RVAT I O N The landscaping plan is included with the submittal. M/I Homes has also previously completed all of the landscaping and berming along 5th Street as part of the Inwood PUD. This landscaping includes the boulevards adjacent to the subject property. There are only six boulevard trees proposed to be removed along 5th Street North to facilitate construction, which will be replaced in similar locations. We have provided sufficient boulevard trees, meeting the 50-foot spacing requirement for both the townhome and apartment site and have provided the sufficient number of trees required per area of disturbance (this includes the trees that will remain on site). Parking lot landscaping meets landscaping area and shade tree requirements. T O W N H O ME I N F O R M AT I O N The townhomes in the proposed development will consist of M/I’s Carriage and City Collection townhomes. The different townhome designs provide for added character and visual interest within the neighborhood as well as varying prices. The two-story Carriage Collection is planned to be positioned to the south and east of the site, adjacent to the existing single-family homes, with the three-story City Collection along public street frontages. A variety of exterior colors will be used throughout the neighborhood to provide additional visual interest while avoiding a monotony of colors. The Carriage Collection offers a range of design features and options and ranges in size from 1,667 square feet to 1,772 square feet with 3 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms. The City Collection plans will provide up to 4 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms ranging from 1,898 square feet to 2,080 square feet. R E S T R I C T I V E C OV E N A N T S Inwood Townhomes will have a Homeowners Association (HOA) that will provide for the maintenance of the overall common elements in the community, including landscaping and irrigation of the common areas, snow removal from sidewalks and private streets, and exterior maintenance. In the unlikely event that the site runs out of snow storage, the HOA service will haul out snow from the site. The HOA will also provide for restrictions on outdoor storage, parking (no boats, campers, or trailers) in order to keep the community looking orderly and well maintained. F E E S With the single-family portion of the development, the Developers Agreements for each addition detailed the following: • Parkland. The Development Contract for Inwood dated June 9, 2015 detailed that park dedication fees were satisfied for the single-family portion of the Inwood Development with the dedication of Outlot L (net 10.73 acres) and that the 1.16 acres of excess park dedication credit was to be applied for the future multi-family residential area as conceptually shown on the Inwood PUD concept plan. • Sewer and Water Availability Charges. M/I Homes was responsible for paying $3,000 for both Sewer Availability Charge (SAC) and Water Availability Charge (WAC) per residential equivalency unit (REU) prior to recording the final plat. A $1,000 Sewer Connection Charge, the Metropolitan Council’s Sewer Availability Charge ($2,435 at the time) and a Water Connection Charge of $1,000 per REU was due at the time of building permit. • County Right-of-Way (ROW) Improvements. M/I Homes was responsible for improvements in the Washington County ROW along Inwood Avenue (CSAH 13) including construction of a new median crossing, turn lanes, and other improvements as were required by the County as well as its proportionate share of the future traffic signal at the intersection of Inwood and 5th Street. There were to be no further obligations to the City or County for the construction or payment of a future traffic signal for any future phases of the Inwood PUD.

MEMORANDUM
Date: April 7, 2025
To: Nathan Fuesrt, Planning Consultant Re: Inwood Townhomes
Jason Stopa, Community Development Director Preliminary Plat/Plans
Marty Powers, Public Works Director
Nate Stanley, City Engineer
Chad Isakson, Assistant City Engineer
From: Jack Griffin, Sr. Project Manager
An engineering review has been completed for the Inwood Townhomes Preliminary Plat/Plans received
on February 27, 2025. The review consisted of the following documentation:
· Inwood Townhomes Preliminary Plat and Plans dated February 11, 2025.
· Stormwater Management Plan dated December 20, 2024.
STATUS/FINDINGS: A condition of Preliminary Plat approval, if granted, must require the applicant to
revise and resubmit Preliminary Plat/Plans to address each review comment and condition of approval to
the satisfaction of City staff prior to the City accepting a Final Plat/Plan application. Engineering has
prepared the following review comments to be addressed. A point-by-point response letter must
accompany the plan resubmittal.
SITE PLANS, TRAFFIC AND ACCESS MANAGEMENT
1. Right-of-way dedication. No additional right-of-way dedication is required along 5th Street.
Additional right-of-way dedication along Island Trail may be needed to accommodate turn lanes at
the new proposed site accesses.
2. Access Management for East Parcel. The east parcel is allowed a single access location to 5th Street
as shown at the Inwood Circle N. intersection, and a single access location along Island Trail.
3. Access Management for West Parcel. The west parcel may have a single new access location along
Island Trail. The west Island Trail access location should be aligned with the Island Trail access
location for the east parcel.
4. Turn lanes should be added along Island Trail for both the east and west access locations, each
having more than 35 new units.
5. The subdivision phasing must provide secondary access for 30 or greater units per Fire Code
adopted by the City.
6. No access will be allowed to Eagle Point Boulevard due to limited access spacing.
7. Secondary access for the proposed 124-unit apartment building is required per Fire Code. The
secondary access must connect to the shared driveway for Outlot A of the Inwood 6th Addition. A
shared driveway easement has been created for this connection as part of the Inwood 6th
Addition. The access design should be improved to encourage equal distribution of traffic to the
5th Street and Island Trail access locations.
Page: 2
8. The subdivision proposes 24-foot wide private streets with no sidewalks adjacent to the street.
City design standards require public streets for medium and high-density residential subdivisions
to be minimum 32-feet in width located within a 66-foot right-of-way. Sidewalks are also required
along both sides of the public street.
9. The proposed design is not recommended as presented due to significant narrowing of the street
and utility corridors, and increased conflicts between various design elements. If the City approves
the Preliminary Plat, the Plans must be further detailed and revised to eliminate encroachments
and conflicts between public watermain and public sanitary sewer, private storm sewer, small/dry
utility corridor preservation, trees and landscaping, drainage, and pedestrian facilities.
10. Whether the streets are public or private, all street intersections must be at 90 degrees and
maintain 50-ft of tangent with maximum longitudinal slopes of 2.5%. Plan revisions are required
accordingly.
11. Driveways must be further detailed, labeled and dimensioned to demonstrate compliance with all
requirements of the City Code. Plan revisions are required. Particular attention should be detailed
on the plans to demonstrate compliance with the required offsets from the right-of-way at
intersections, the required offsets from side lot lines, the driveway separation distance
requirements, and connection of each driveway to the public street at 90-degree angles.
Lot 64, Block 3 must be revised to increase the driveway setback to 50-feet from the Island
Trail intersection per City driveway standards.
Lots 9 and 10, Block 2; and Lots 19-22, Block 3; include driveways located on dead-end streets
with no City standard turn around. Redesign is recommended or approval is required from the
City Planning and Fire Departments.
Lots 13-17, Block 3 are located on a curve with the driveways failing to intersect the street at
90-degrees as required. Redesign is recommended for these lots to revise driveway layout, and
utility service layout. Horizontal geometrics for this curve must be detailed for City review.
12. Dedicated drainage and utility easements, minimum 10-feet wide, are required along all public
roadway frontage, including 5th Street and Island Trail. Small/dry utility corridor preservation is
also required along all private streets (if allowed). All easement areas must be free from all
encroachments other than those approved by the City Engineer and upon execution of an
easement encroachment agreement. Prohibited encroachments include, but are not limited to
trees, structures, landscaping, fences, retaining walls, storm sewer running parallel with the
easement, stormwater basins and BMPs, and grading that exceeds 4:1.
STORMWATER MANAGEMENT
1. The proposed development is subject to a Stormwater Management Plan (SWMP) meeting State,
South Washington Watershed District (SWWD) and City rules. A SWWD permit is required.
2. The Preliminary Plat includes improvements that reside within the larger Inwood subdivision in
which stormwater management provisions have been previously designed, permitted and
constructed. The site design will create 10.64 acres of new impervious surfaces, or 55 percent
impervious surfaces. The existing stormwater management system constructed with previous
Inwood development phases assumed these parcels would contain 75% impervious surfaces.
Therefore, the existing stormwater management system will accommodate the subdivision as
proposed.
3. Approval of the Preliminary Plat/Plans for the development is contingent upon all SWMP revisions,
as required by the SWWD or other applicable permitting agency, being submitted to the City for
review and approval.
4. Approval of the preliminary grading and storm sewer plans for the development is contingent upon
all grading plans being reviewed and approved by the City Engineer prior to the start of any grading
or construction.
Page: 3
5. Overland emergency overflow (EOF) elevations are required throughout the site, requiring a
system of interconnecting drainage ways. Low openings for adjacent structures must maintain 1-
foot above any adjacent EOF in the as-built condition.
6. Plan revisions may be required to meet City design standards and to mitigate all encroachments.
7. All storm sewer systems internal to the subdivision will be privately owned and maintained. A
Stormwater Management Maintenance and Easement Agreement in the City’s standard form of
agreement must be executed and recorded with the Final Plat for all privately owned stormwater
facilities. Easement areas must incorporate all 100-year high water level areas including localized
low points, and to protect all overland emergency overflow locations and flow paths. Easement
revisions may be necessary to reflect any revisions to the construction plans.
MUNICIPAL WATER SUPPLY
1. Connection to the public watermain system is readily available to serve each proposed
development parcel. The developer will be required to connect to existing watermain stubs
located along 5th Street and Island Trail and extend the public watermain system internally
throughout the subdivision. All public watermain improvements must be installed in accordance
with the City engineering design standards and as approved by the City.
2. Hydrants and gate valves must be installed as directed by the Fire Department and Public Works
Department. All hydrants and connecting watermains shall be owned and maintained by the City.
3. All watermain improvements must be completed at developer’s sole cost including all City
connection and availability charges.
4. Watermain distribution lines and connections will be required wherever reasonably possible to
create a looped network throughout the proposed subdivision and as the project is phased.
5. Minimum 30-foot easements centered over the pipe/hydrant will be required when not located
within the public right-of-way. Easements must be free from all encroachments, including
retaining walls, trees, fences, small/dry utilities, or storm water management BMPs. Dedicated
utility easements must be shown on all site, grading, utility, and landscape plans when submitting
a Preliminary and Final Plat application.
6. Plan revisions will be required to meet City design standards and to mitigate all encroachments.
MUNICIPAL SANITARY SEWER
1. The proposed property is located in the Southwest Planning MUSA and current Regional Sewer
Staging Plan area and would discharge to the MCES WONE Interceptor.
2. Connection to the municipal sanitary sewer system is readily available to serve each proposed
development parcel. The developer will be required to connect to existing 8-inch sanitary sewer
stubs located along Island Trail and extend the public sanitary sewer system internally throughout
the subdivision to serve each platted lot/parcel and in accordance with the City engineering design
standards.
3. All sanitary sewer improvements must be completed at developer’s sole cost including all City
connection and availability charges.
4. All public sanitary sewer mains placed within the development will require minimum 30-foot
easements centered over the pipe/structure, if not located within a public right-of-way.
Easements must be free from all encroachments, including retaining walls, trees, fences,
small/dry utilities, or storm water management BMPs. Dedicated utility easements must be
shown on all site, grading, utility, and landscape plans when submitting Preliminary and Final Plat
applications.
5. Plan revisions will be required to meet City design standards and to mitigate all encroachments.

RE: Inwood Townhomes - Comprehensive Plan Amendment
Ms. Monterusso:
Washington County received and reviewed the documents for the Inwood Townhomes Comprehensive Plan
Amendment application requesting the Future Land Use Category be changed from Mixed Use Commercial to High
Density Residential.
The departments of Public Works and Public Health and Environment reviewed the documents provided by the
City of Lake Elmo on February 27th. It was identified through this review that the development proposed is located
in a DWSMA and known area of PFAS contamination. Best management practices as outlined by MDH and MPCA
should be implemented to protect public health. Washington County’s Public Works Department had no
additional comments.
Thank you for the opportunity to comment.
Sincerely,
Kelli Matzek
Senior Planner
