CITY OF HUGO <br />RESOLUTION 2001- 55 <br />APPROVING FINDINGS OF FACT DENYING A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN <br />AMENDMENT FOR GOR -EM LLC. FOR PROPERTY EAST OF GOODVIEW AVENUE <br />AND SOUTH OF 145TH STREET <br />WHEREAS, Gor-Em LLC requested a Comprehensive Plan Amendment to include <br />approximately 59 acres of land in the MUSA; and, <br />WHEREAS, the subject property is located west of Goodview and south of 145th Street, legally <br />described as follows: <br />The SW 1/4 of Section 21 T31N-R21W. <br />WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has reviewed said request at a duly called Public Hearing <br />and recommends denial; and <br />NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY <br />OF HUGO, MINNESOTA, that it should and hereby does deny the request of Gor-Em LLC. to <br />include approximately 59 acres within the MUSA for land located east of Goodview Avenue and <br />south of 145th Street, based on the following findings: <br />1. The proposed request is inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan with regard to the <br />future extension and staging of urban services. Currently, the property is scheduled to be <br />serviced with municipal sewer and water after the year 2020. <br />2. The requested Comprehensive Plan Amendment is not needed to enjoy a reasonable use <br />of the property, because the property can currently be used for agricultural pursuits or <br />large lot residential on private well and septic. <br />3. The applicant did not demonstrate or provide adequate reasons as to why the City should <br />consider amending its Comprehensive Plan to include the property in the MUSA. <br />4. Including the subject property in the MUSA would negatively impact many of the <br />adjacent roads. Further, the intersection of 147th Street and Highway 61, which would <br />serve as the primary route out of this development, is substandard and operating at or <br />above capacity during peak hours. The City currently has no plans to improve the <br />intersection of 147th Street and Highway 61. <br />ADOPTED by the City Council on September 17, 2001. <br />F n, Mayor <br />ATTEST: <br />-d , 4'� dz-'t�� <br />Mary Creager, City C <br />
