City of Mounds View | 2040 Comprehensive Plan <br />DRAFT September 21, 2020 <br />Chapter 2: Land Use | 2-7 <br />FUTURE LAND USE <br />Mounds View is a developed suburb. Updates to the land use map are more <br />detailed and less radical in nature. Updates to the future land use plan include: <br />• Consolidation of land use guide categories <br />• Development of the definition, and expansion of Mixed-Use districts <br />Because Mounds View is developed from edge-to-edge, new land uses will <br />occur through redevelopment. No significant impacts to infrastructure or a <br />need for additional services provided by the City – including sewage flow – are <br />expected as a result of population growth. <br />RESIDENTIAL <br />This comprehensive plan update comes with a simplified list of residential land <br />use categories compared to the previous update. The purpose of this <br />simplification is for easier compatibility of the zoning code and realization of <br />the City’s vision. <br />The 2030 Update had four residential categories: single-family, detached; <br />single family, attached; Multi-family; and Manufactured Housing Park. Each of <br />those categories was compatible with numerous zoning categories which <br />stifled the ability of the Comprehensive Plan to guide toward a defined vision. <br />The 2040 Update simplifies the guide categories and establishes a clearer <br />path for the application of the zoning code. The new designations are as <br />follows: <br />Single-Family Attached (SFA) includes single family residential units which <br />are attached to each other. Examples include two-family dwellings, three- <br />family dwellings or townhomes. The density limits within this category are <br />between 1 to 5 units per acre.1 <br />Single-Family Detached (SFD) includes standalone single family residential <br />buildings with only one unit. Examples include single0family dwellings and <br />platted lots. The density limits within this category are between 1 to 5 units <br />per acre. <br />Multi-Family Residential (MF) includes land with one or more buildings and <br />three or more dwelling units which are attached to each other. Examples <br />1 In R-1 zoning district (2018), the minimum lot size is 11,000 sf (12,500 sf if corner lot). <br />Subtracting ROW, the density = 2.83 units per acre. In R-2 district (e.g. two-family <br />townhomes), the density = 5 units per acre. <br />New Neighbors <br />Mounds View Township was settled in the <br />early 1940’s with small homes built on <br />large wooded lots along dirt roads. When <br />regional sewer was extended into town in <br />the 1960’s, many of these large lots were <br />re-platted. <br />As time passed, many of the original <br />1940’s homes have aged poorly. For <br />those still on larger lots, if the property <br />value was less than the retail value of two <br />lots minus home demolition costs (e.g. <br />less than $180,000), the large lot becomes <br />a target for developers as a tear-down and <br />re-plat. <br />In Mounds View, there are about two or <br />three teardowns per year, often including <br />subdividing the large lot into two. There <br />are only a handful of these large lots left, <br />which can be subdivided, and still meet <br />the minimum lot dimensions required in <br />the Zoning Code. <br />Red Oak Drive
