Future Land Use Plan The map on page 17 represents the proposed future land use plan for the City of Mounds View. The land use plan acknowledges that Mounds View is a fully developed community and emphasizes the need to maintain and enhance the existing land use pattern. It must be emphasized that this plan is general in nature and that each specific development proposal should be reviewed by the community to ensure compatibility with existing built environment and with the City’s goals and policies. The map on page 18 identifies those parcels or areas that would undergo a change in proposed land use designation. Definitions The following definitions help describe each land use category: SFD: Single-Family, Detached: Single-family dwellings and platted lots. SFA: Single-Family, Attached: Land containing one or more buildings with two or more dwelling units, each of which has primary ground floor access to the outside and which are attached to each other by party walls without openings. Examples include two family dwellings, three family dwellings, town homes, and town home outlots. MF: Multifamily: Land containing one or more buildings with three or more dwelling units, one or more of which does not have primary access to the outside and which are attached to each other by party walls without openings. Examples include fourplexes, apartments, cooperatives, and condominiums.
