Item No: 10 B <br />Meeting Date: November 13, 2000 <br />Type of Business: PH & CB <br />WK: Work Session; PH: Public Hearing; <br />CA: Consent Agenda; CB: Council Business <br />City of Mounds View Staff Report <br />To: Honorable Mayor & City Council <br />From: James Ericson, Planner <br />Item Title/Subject: Public Hearing and Consideration of Resolution <br />5482, a Resolution Approving the MERMAID <br />ADDITION Preliminary Plat, Planning Case PD00- <br />002 <br />Date of Report: November 9, 2000 <br /> <br />Background: <br /> <br />Dan Hall, property owner and president of The Mermaid, is requesting City approval of <br />the preliminary plat for the MERMAID ADDITION, a major subdivision associated with <br />the recently-approved Mermaid PUD. The plat groups together those parcels being <br />utilized for Mermaid expansion, which include the former Rent-All property, the Music- <br />off-10 property, the south 361 feet of the Mounds View Business Park South plat as <br />well as the existing Mermaid parcels. (This plat does not include the Perkins parcel.) <br />Altogether, the total area involved in the plat is 9.36 acres. <br /> <br />Discussion: <br /> <br />This preliminary plat appears to be consistent with the Subdivision Plats and <br />Procedures Chapter of the City Code and a copy of the preliminary plat has been <br />forwarded to the City Attorney for his review. The legal descriptions are however <br />incomplete, and as such, the dedication page has not been included for preliminary <br />plat review. <br /> <br />Plat Highlights: <br /> <br />• This plat combines all of the properties involved in the Mermaid PUD into one lot, <br />Lot 1, Block 1, MERMAID ADDITION, and one outlot, Outlot A, MERMAID ADDITION. The <br />outlot would serve as the access drive to the business park property to replace the <br />existing access drive. While it is not anticipated that the business park would own <br />the proposed outlot, it is expected that a permanent access easement would be <br />recorded in its favor. <br /> <br />• The plat dedicates 120 feet within the right of way for County Road H south of the <br />Rent All Parcel and 100 feet (9.5 feet deep) south of the Music Off 10 parcel. The <br />extra dedicated area in front of Music Off 10 may or may not be included in the <br />final plat, depending upon County feedback. <br /> <br />• The plat dedicates a ten-foot drainage and utility easement around the perimeter <br />of the Mermaid property and also dedicates a 35-foot wide easement area for <br />utilities along the southwestern shared property line between the Mermaid and
