Item No: 10J Meeting Date: June 28, 2004 Type of Business: CB Administrator Review: _________ City of Mounds View Staff Report To: Mounds View City Council From: Kristin Prososki, Planning Associate Item Title/Subject: Consideration of Resolution 6294, Approving the Final Plat for the “Velmeir CVS Addition” Major Subdivision; Planning Case MA2004-002 Introduction: The Velmeir Companies, represented by Jim LaValle, has submitted an application for a major subdivision of the land at the southwest corner of County Road 10 and Silver Lake Road, the former Amoco gasoline station. The site has an area of 5.54 acres and the parcels are currently zoned B-3, R-3 and R-4. The proposed use for the development is a CVS Pharmacy. The plat area involves five parcels, and from these five, three parcels will be created. Discussion: On May 24, 2004, the City Council approved Resolution 6270, which approved the preliminary plat of the “Velmeir CVS Addition” major subdivision. All created parcels satisfy the minimum lot requirements. With the exception of easement changes and showing only the required detail, the final plat is no different than the preliminary plat and is in proper form for recordation. A copy of the final plat is attached to this report. There are a few necessary changes that must be made before the City will sign the final plat. The right of way designation that states “STATE HIGHWAY 10-62” will be altered to reflect the change to a County Highway. The right of way designation for Silver Lake Road will be changed to “County Road 44” and easements will be added to the ponding areas. In addition, a ten (10) foot easement will be placed along the right of way. Resolution 6294 (attached), which approves the final plat for the “Velmeir CVS Addition”, stipulates that Velmeir shall have paid the required park dedication fee prior to City signatures being placed on the plat. Staff is recommending a park dedication fee of $57,812.69, which is based only on the land that is being more intensely developed. Because the developer has agreed to install a ten-foot wide bituminous trail adjacent to the site, the Council could --at its discretion-- consider subtracting the cost of the path from the park dedication fee. If the Council so desires, the park dedication fee can be changed in the attached resolution. In addition, Resolution 6294 stipulates that several other requirements be completed prior to the City signing the final plat. In conjunction with the major subdivision request is a rezoning request. The Council held the introduction and first reading of Ordinance 739, which rezones portions of Lots 1 and 2 of this subdivision, at the May 24, 2004 City Council meeting. After the “Velmeir CVS Addition” final plat has been recorded with Ramsey County, the Council will consider the second reading and adoption of Ordinance 739.
