ISSUE Lennar Corporation has requested a final plat for the Bella Vista consisting of eight (8) outlots and no independently developable lots. The purpose of this plat would be to transfer ownership. Four (4) of the outlots would be transferred to the City and four (4) of the outlots will be purchased by Lennar. The four (4) outlots purchased by Lennar will eventually be developed into the 158 lots within the preliminary plat approved by the City Council on July 16. SUMMARY Lennar has submitted an eight (8) outlot Bella Vista Final Plat for approval. The eight (8) outlots are consistent with the five different phases of the project along with the proposed public spaces in the Bella Vista Preliminary Plat approved by the City Council on July 16. The entire area of the final plat is currently owned by Klein Bank. After the final plat is recorded, four (4) of the oudots will be transferred to the City and four (4) of the oudots will be purchased by Lennar. Lennar will eventually develop their four oudots into the 158 lots approved within the preliminary plat. It is expected a final plat for Phase I will be reviewed by the City late this summer. Surrounding Land Uses North - Agriculture and Large Lot Single Family Houses (Low Density Residential Designation) West - Agriculture and Large Lot Single Family Homes (Transitional Residential Designation) South - Single Family Residential (Low Density Residential Designation) East - Agriculture (Low Density Residential Designation) Background Owners: Klein Bank, current owner; City and Lennar, future owners Residential Developers: Lennar Corporation Preliminary Plat Acres: 142.6 Acres Comprehensive Plan Design.: LDR: Low Density Residential Zoning: R -1 PUD: Low Density Residential Planned Unit Development Of the eight (8) outlots, four (4) of the outlots will be transferred to City ( Outlot A, Outlot B, Outlot C, and Outlot G). Before the transfer of Outlots A, B, and C, Dakota County would purchase conservation easements from Klein Bank and record the easements over these oudots. Oudots A and B will have a greenway easement recorded over them that would allow the City to install and maintain park uses, municipal water, sanitary sewer, and storm water infrastructure. Spaces within these oudots that would not be used as active parkland would be maintained in a natural state. Oudot C (Horseshoe Lake and the shoreland directly around it) would have a shoreland easement that would allow stormwater infrastructure and passive and water - orientated recreation, but would prohibit ball fields or municipal water or sanitary sewer infrastructure. No privately owned structures or uses would be allowed within Oudots A, B, and C. Oudot B, the future active park, will result in 0.65 acres of parkland dedication credit, which will be applied to the future final plats that create the developable lots. Oudot G is being transferred to the City for the possibility of a future City well. Outlots D, E, F, and H will be purchased by Lennar for the future development and their boundaries match the phasing boundaries within the preliminary plat approval. Oudot D matches the boundary of Phase 4N; Oudot E matches the boundary of Phase 2; Oudot F matches the combined boundaries of Phase 3 and 4S; and Oudot H matches the boundary of Phase 1. It is expected that Lennar will submit the final plat to develop Outlot H into the 28 lots within Phase 1 later this summer in anticipation of grading the site this fall. It is expected that the improvement of Bacardi Avenue and the public improvements for Phase 1 will occur in 2014. To clarify, Lennar will be responsible for at least half of the cost to improve Bacardi Avenue. The City Attorney has recommended a condition that Lennar provide a declaration of covenants committing to paying for at least half of cost of Bacardi from the southern edge of Oudot A to the northern edge of Oudot G. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Planning Commission recommend approval of the Bella Vista Final Plat. 2 BELLA VISTA hh.W IF, I o� d 3 H € i It a ad fi �E Z'ye° °b'e 6$L x° xo $oe� ggSo E �� gkgk W � s _ " r4 K 3 8 jai °s 4P zp�� g SS cFaco SS o � v 8fi � Ee a m xs�E3 I �v Ev S ys a2a 3 'F Hil I b i I I I Q J 00 Z1'lFL XfS,91e00N _ NOOe05'18'W 2559.15 — — — �.e ye s? •e'k n\ S & &� wi \\ \\ 44, b LL \\ \ \ Ole ch t s A R� tF„ 'R_ Arse F A \ 8 L 8 j r\ g w •\ w xa \ Ya s � R e� V VI 3 C� a _ r 4 uj do —y z 8B sY s$ C� �`O o F 8 L 8 j r\ g w •\ w xa \ Ya s � R e� V VI 3 a _ r 4 uj 9 F i \ ' uc„r °rox \ LI 3 Lf,6loOON Q 4 W m z& SR� F � c� \ c�\ � \ 1 z \\ y � ,� _iH r��pM i60• / 2g u £Y T \ ♦ 2 c� \ c�\ � \ 1 z \\ y � ,� _iH r��pM i60• / T \ ♦ 2 ,• pY �g - \ ea \`OCR N07° 5b'Sf'W 1I0&3� 2�4� / ysaw op Lu Tt ti` /\ \— csvrsiuxsoic mi 2CS.[a.CpY _ 3s4Po. k R Dr)�d"1 r ` � \" � � y v \� `�,•� c \ � 7 1 1 R >r �R a a--- - ------ - - - - -- V of A FA 3 I L r- ou I I I I I I I I I o„ I I I I I `1 I -- I t; I < I I I I I I I I (> I I C� �r I F I � m I I I I ou I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I o., I I I I 111 119 0 5911 S �e 1 1 No ml �tl 5 icc a s I z J -17 -J�-7-1 e — k 1 � 3 ::. di , iron r lrl .J JL 0 y a � n - ..
