WENSMANN SEVENTH ADDITION Mr. Terry Wensmann and Ms. Kelly Murray, Wensmann Realty, Inc., were in attendance to request approval of a revised residential planned unit development (PUD). This subdivision, referred to as the Wensmann Seventh Addition consists of 51 townhouse units and 31 single family lots as well as a 1.67 acre park (open space) which has been revised to respond to Park and Recreation Committee concerns. This subdivision is a continuation of the development pattern established by and contiguous to the Wensmann Sixth Addition along the south side of County Road 42, west of Shannon Parkway. Assistant Planner reviewed the key modifications to the original proposal which includes the increase in the number of single family lots; decrease in townhouse units; reorientation of the park land; increased off street parking spaces; and revised internal vehicular circulation. Staff has identified several outstanding issues and has recommended these be addressed by the applicant and become conditions for approval of the PUD. Lengthy discussion ensued between the Planning Commission and applicant. The Planning Commission concurred that several concerns need to be addressed and clarified prior to their acceptance of the PUD. Key issues identified for clarification were: 1) establishment of a landscaping /berming plan along the interior frontage road and County Road 42 to reduce traffic confusion and headlight interference and additional enhancements to the landscaping plan; 2) clarification of variances for building setbacks on specific lots; and 3) adjustment to intersection of proposed December Trail and Daybreak Avenue to a 90° angle. Mr. Wensmann advised that he had seen the conditions for approval as recommended by staff and stated his willingness to compromise and revise the final plat to more closely meet minimum ordinance standards; thus removing some of the variances or the potential for future variances. MOTION by McDermott to table action on the Wensmann Seventh Addition PUD, preliminary plat, and rezoning until a revised plan can be submitted that addresses the issues identified by the Planning Commission and city staff. Second by Droste. Ayes: Tentinger, McDermott, Ingram, Droste, DeBettignies. Nays: 0.

Printed on recycled paper S 00 °0$ containing 30% post consumer nan Regular Planning Commission Meeting Minutes January 10, 1995 Page Two INFORMATIONAL MEETING: Shannon Meadows Addition Concept PUD Assistant Planner Rick Pearson provided an overview the Shannon Meadows Addition Concept PUD noting that this proposal introduces a new concept in housing. The Shannon Meadows proposal would be situated on 12.8 acres of land west of Shannon Parkway and north of 145th Street (commonly referred to as the Strese/Burkhalter property) and consists of 43 single family lots with a zero lot line concept. Mr. Jack Gassier, President of Embassy Homes and owner of the property, and Mr. Alan Kretman, consultant, have indicated that the property could not be developed for conventional single family homes due to land and development costs. In reviewing this revised proposal Planning staff has identified the proposed density of 3.35 dwelling units per acre to still be the main concern. Although, the Comprehensive Guide Plan addressed a provision for the clustering of single family housing via planned unit development for up to six units per gross acre providing the overall density of the property is no greater than 2.5 dwelling units per acre, the applicant has not identified substantial enhancements to landscaping of the subject property, superior or extraordinary building materials, or recreational amenities that could be considered as trade -offs for the increased density. Further, staff cannot consider properties outside of the development area or that is not controlled by the owner in establishing justification for overall increased density. Mr. Alan Kretman discussed the concept PUD and the unique housing type noting that similar developments in other parts of the metro area that have been very successful with proven marketability. Mr. Kretman stated that the development appears as a typical single family neighborhood. However, this type development represents a low maintenance single family duster home concept which provides for a homeowners' association for maintaining all exterior grounds, including all building exteriors and common areas such as landscaped islands and development signage areas. This concept utilizes a zero lot line approach with the one blank sidewall at the zero lot line which provides a private courtyard space that is used by the adjacent home. Mr. Kretman cited the existing elevation of Hawkins Pond as a significant issue that has a direct impact on the high cost for development of this property because of the need for imported fill; therefore, justifying the request for increased density. Chairperson McDermott opened up the discussion for comments from those present in the audience. Mr. John Hawkins, adjacent property owner and owner of Hawkins Pond, expressed concern for high density development around the pond which will create greater storm water runoff and increase the land needed to manage the pond. He noted that the proposed Shannon Meadows development abuts his private drive to the east with the pond on the west side. Continued development in this area will result in greater runoff and more land will be taken from him for management of the storm water. Additional comments from Mr. John Gamlin, abutting property owner in Country Hills, Mr. LeRoy Mulliken, 4060 145th Street West, and Mr. Bob Wagner, contiguous property owner expressed some concern regarding density as it relates to increased storm water runoff, variances to rear yard setbacks, and future assessment to adjoining property owners for realignment of an existing sanitary sewer line. The Planning Commission concurred that justification for density and reduced lot size has not been demonstrated by the applicant because no enhancements to the property are provided. In other similar developments in the metro area far more amenities such as on -site ponds, wetlands, permanent open areas had been observed by the Commissioners. The Commissioners further agreed that there is the potential for a real need for this type of housing project. However, this area may not be appropriate for this type of development because of surrounding land uses and other issues such as storm water runoff. Regular Planning Commission Meeting Minutes January 10, 1995 Page Three I. It was suggested that perhaps a development concept plan be designed for ultimate development of all vacant contiguous land to this property so as to address any future concerns. It was also suggested that it may be appropriate for City staff to provide for a new zoning district which accommodates this type of housing and assures proper design and performance standards while providing a low- maintenance housing alternative for future potential Rosemount homeowners. MOTION by McDermott to recommend denial of the Shannon Meadows concept for a residential planned unit development at the proposed density because it is inconsistent with established development patterns, it is unsupported by appropriate amenities, and it consists of excessive variances to minimum R-1 Single Family Residential ordinance standards. Second by Tentinger. Ayes: Ingram, Droste, DeBettignies, Tentinger, McDermott. Nays: 0. The applicant was advised that he may present his concept to City Council as it stands along with Planning Commission's recommendation for denial or he may choose to modify the PUD concept and resubmit to the Planning Commission for further review and recommendation. MOTION by McDermott to adjourn. Second by DeBettignies.

AMERICAN PLANNING ASSOCIATION (APA) MEMBERSHIPS Senior Planner Mack advised that 1995 APA Membership Dues had only been budgeted for professional staff. In past years the entire Planning Commission were members of the APA. Planning staff recommends that the Planning Commission Chair be enrolled for 1995 and 1996 and that member Printed on recycled paper IF 3O containing 30% post consumermana;,:. Regular Planning Commission Meeting Minutes February 14, 1995 Page Two could share pertinent information with the rest of the Commissioners. The Commissioners concurred that the Chair be enrolled for APA membership including subscriptions to Planning, a national monthly magazine sent to APA members, and the State Planning Newsletter from which relevant articles will be shared with the full Commission. Commissioners Droste and DeBettignies requested attendance at the 1995 Land Use Planning Workshop sponsored by GTS Government Training Service. Reservations for the workshop entitled The Basics will be made and confirmation will be sent to each Commissioner with further instructions as to time and place of the seminar. Commissioner Tentinger arrive and took his chair on the dais at 5:30 p.m. UPDATE ON MORATORIUM FOR RR AG LOT SPLITS Senior Planner Mack advised that interest and proposals for development of Rural Residential Agricultural properties have diminished due to negotiation or external reasons motivating the applicants. A draft moratorium ordinance has been prepared by the City's legal counsel in response to the concerns expressed by staff and the Planning Commission regarding subdivision proposals for rural and agricultural properties. The moratorium had been considered to permit appropriate staff to create and implement a series of regulations required by state and regional mandates. This would include projects such as on -site septic tank maintenance (ISTS), storm water management, density controls, and minimum lot standards. However, upon review of the draft ordinance it is the consensus of City staff that the community is better served by holding off on the adoption of the moratorium and proceeding with the development, adoption, and implementation of the mandated regulations. MALLARD POND ADMINISTRATIVE PLAT Mr. Bart Winkler, Shadow Development Inc., owns approximately 170 acres of land in the Agriculture District situated east of Bacardi Avenue and north of County Road 38. Mr. Winkler has requested approval of a plat, to be identified as Mallard Pond, that would result in two residential lots of fifteen (15) and five (5) acres and an outlot of approximately 150 acres. There is an existing single family structure on the 15 -acre parcel. The 5 -acre lot would become a separate buildable parcel while the outlot would remain undeveloped, but could be subdivided in the future into buildable lots. The plat meets or exceeds the minimum zoning and subdivision ordinance requirements and is in conformance with standards for private on -site septic systems and wells. Commissioner Ingram excused herself from her chair at 5:50 p.m. MOTION by DeBettignies to recommend to City Council approval of the Mallard Pond preliminary and final plats subject to: 1) dedication of easements for drainage and ponding on Lots 1 and 2, Block 1, and Outlot A, as required by the city engineer. 2) realignment of the alternative drainfield on Lot 1, Block 1, in response to the drainage pattern; 3) approval of the Dakota County Platting Commission, including the dedication of five (5) feet of half right -of -way, as required; and 4.

Regular Planning Commission Meeting February 14, 1995 Page Three PLANNING COMNIISSIONER COMMENTS Commissioner Droste requested staff to research the concept for alternative housing similar to the housing prototypes introduced by the Shannon Meadows developer. Specifically, his request referred to the Kelly Truste property and the possible development of a new zoning district that would accommodate new housing trends. Commissioner Droste also requested staff to conduct a study of the percentages of senior housing and low, moderate, and high income housing currently in Rosemount in response to metro -wide housing issues identified by Metropolitan Council. Planner Mack advised that the Community Development Department has compiled a list of projects, both in -house and public, and established priorities for these projects. There are activities on this inventory that address the concerns expressed by Commissioner Droste. Staff will be submitting copies of these projects to the Planning Commission for comment and discussion at a future meeting. MOTION by DeBettignies to adjourn. Second by Droste.

GRANT APPLICATION FOR PARKS IN THE KELLY TRUST PROPERTY Jim Topitzhofer, Parks and Recreation Director for the City of Rosemount, was in attendance to announce that the City applied for and was successful in acquiring a grant for acquisition of park land. The Parks and Recreation Committee has indicated their desire to apply the $50,000 award toward the purchase of a portion of the Kelly Trust property situated north of and contiguous to Carrolls Woods and west of Schwarz Pond. The subject property would provide a transition area between the two existing parks with passive recreation as the primary activity for this land. Since this grant is to be subsidized with matching funds a Carrolls Woods Subcommittee has been formed to research and identify organizations that could potentially be counted on for donations to this fund. Other options were discussed, including pre dedication of park land prior to development of the Kelly property. Senior Planner Andrew Mack advised that the City's Comprehensive Guide Plan Land Use Designation for this site is generally Parks and Open Space. Therefore, the proposed use is consistent with the Comp Plan. Specifics of actual land area identified for park needs can be addressed with future developers of this property at the time of development. ST. JOSEPH'S CATHOLIC CHURCH BUILDING PERMIT REQUEST: SITE PLAN REVIEW The Church of St. Joseph, 14375 South Robert Trail, has submitted an application for site plan approval for a building addition that would provide a physical connection between the church building and the school. The 2,000 square foot addition will provide for a protected link between the two buildings and will also serve as an informal gathering place. The addition will be constructed of brick to match the church. A landscaping plan also provides for additional shrubs and a tree. Assistant Planner Pearson advised that the proposed addition is in compliance with zoning and subdivision ordinance. MOTION by Ingram to approve the site plan for a 2,000 square foot addition to the Church of St. Joseph subject to conformance with all applicable building and fire codes. Second by DeBettignies.

Printed on recycled paper O' containing 30% post- consumerm.1frr;., Regular Planning Commission Meeting Minutes February 28, 1995 Page Two FAST TRACK ORDINANCE Senior Planner Mack introduced a draft zoning ordinance text amendment for Commission comment and consideration of a proposed revision to the ordinance that would establish enhanced standards for the BP Business Park Districts and provide for expediency in the City's site plan approval process. The concept for streamlining of the project review process originated with staff discussions with the Port Authority in their effort to market the Rosemount Business Park and their desire to establish a positive image in how the City of Rosemount markets itself to future developers. The proposed ordinance amendment would facilitate the City's efforts to be competitive in the economic development climate of the metro area. It was noted that the principal objectives of this ordinance are: 1) to streamline the site plan approval process for building permits in the BP District where staff issues a permit when no variances are involved, potentially saving approximately 30 -60 days in the approval process; 2) to enhance and supplement existing zoning ordinance design standards for the BP District resulting in an enhanced level of regulations for staff approval of site plans; and 3) to increase the Port Authority's confidence in the quality of development standards for the Rosemount Business Park without relying upon overly burdensome restrictive covenants. It was further noted that any proposals for platting, replatting, rezoning, or variances to the enhanced standards would trigger formal review by the Planning Commission. Lengthy discussion ensued with agreement among the Commissioners that they would like additional time to review and study the proposed amendment. MOTION by Tentinger to table action on a zoning ordinance text amendment for the establishment of a "fast track" site plan approval process and the establishment of enhanced building and site design standards for the BP Business Park District; and, further, that a Planning Commission "work session" be scheduled for March 14, 1995 for further discussion and input from the Commission. Second by DeBettignies. Ayes: McDermott, Ingram, DeBettignies, Tentinger. Nays: 0. REZONING STUDY FOR VACANT LAND (Between 145th St. W, Shannon Pkwy.. Dodd Blvd.) Assistant Planner Pearson discussed the Comprehensive Guide Plan Implementation Programpart of which directs the rezoning of land into conformance with the approved Land Use Designation. This process provides incentive for development of vacant land located within the Metropolitan Urban Service Area (MUSA). Planning staff have reviewed the guidelines set up on the Comprehensive Guide Plan for the locating of multi- family housing and compared it to the existing conditions of the vacant land in the area confined by 145th Street West on the north, Shannon Parkway along the west, and Dodd Boulevard along the south and found that, due to the construction of new streets and realignment of major collector streets, Dodd Boulevard no longer meets the criteria for direct access to a major street for a residential densities exceeding six (6) dwelling units per acre. Therefore, Planning staff recommends that R -2 Single Family Attached is a logical transition from the R -1 Single Family Detached development pattern established to the south and the R -3 Multiple Family Residential established to the north and west of the vacant land. A rezoning to R 2 for the subject property is in conformance with the elements and objectives of the Comprehensive Guide Plan. If the Planning Commission agrees, then Planning staff recommends a public hearing be scheduled with both the Planning Commission and, then at a subsequent meeting, with the City Council. Regular Planning Commission Meeting February 28, 1995 Page Three MOTION by Ingram to schedule a public hearing for March 14, 1995 with the Planning Commission to receive public testimony regarding the proposed rezonings of vacant land situated between 145th Street West, Shannon Parkway, and Dodd Boulevard resulting in a Planning Commission recommendation to City Council; and, further, recommend that the City Council schedule a public hearing for additional public testimony regarding the proposed rezonings for a subsequent City Council Meeting.

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT ADMINISTRATIVE PROJECT LIST Senior Planner Mack reviewed a listing of Community Development Department projects, both in- house and public, that has been compiled by the department that provides a description of each project, their status, and the requirements still needed for completion of each project. Priorities have been established for these projects based upon discussion and direction given by City Council, Planning Commission, and in response to community issues. Planning Commission members expressed their appreciation of staff's efforts to keep them informed and updated on project processes and current status. PLANNING COMMISSIONER COMMENTS Civil Engineer Doug Litterer informed the Commission that the Utilities Commission has recommended retaining Bonestroo, Rosene, Anderlik &Associates, an engineering and architectural firm, to update the City of Rosemount Storm Water Management Plan. The study will cover the whole city with anticipated completion in approximately eight months. Commissioner Tentinger requested that the starting time for Planning Commission Meetings be put on a future agenda to discuss the potential for starting meetings at 5:30 p.m. rather than 5:15.

PUBLIC HEARING: PROPOSED REZONINGS FOR PUBLIC LAND Chairperson McDermott suspended the Regular Planning Commission Meeting and opened the Public Hearing scheduled for 6:30 p.m. The recording secretary had in her possession the Affidavit of Publication and Affidavits for Mailing Posting of Public Hearing Notice. Assistant Planner Rick Pearson recapped the discussion held at the last meeting regarding a staff initiated rezoning of vacant property from a combination of AG Agriculture and R -3 Multiple Family Residential to R -2 Single Family Attached. The subject property is located in an area confined by 145th Street West on the north, Shannon Parkway along the west, and Dodd Boulevard along the south. The Comprehensive Guide Plan Land Use Designation for this property is a combination of High Density Residential, with possible densities of 6 -12 dwelling units per acre, and Public and Institutional use for approximately 3.5 acres, possibly for the construction of a new fire station. Because the criteria for exceedingly high density development no longer exists with the redesignation of Dodd Boulevard from a major collector street to a local street, Planning staff recommends that a rezoning to R -2 Single Family Attached Residential development is appropriate to create a transition of density between existing low density detached residential uses and existing multiple family development patterns. The proposed rezonings are in conformance with the standards and intent of the Comprehensive Guide Plan. Mr. Richard Carroll, one of the property owners of the vacant land, addressed the Commission and expressed concern for various issues regarding the history rezonings and land uses of this property. Issues identified by Mr. Carroll included: 1) the total acreage represented as currently zoned R -3 and AG; 2) whether or not proper notification procedures to property owners was executed if in fact the rezonings were approved; 3) what the benefit was for the rezoning of the parcel identified for use as a potential fire station (public use); 4) the design for future storm water holding ponds; 5) premature rezoning of property without an active development proposal; and 6) impact of a rezoning on the Green Acres status of the property. There were no other comments from the audience. 7rinted on recycled paper 30 containing 30% post consumer fl!b Regular Planning Commission Meeting Minutes March 14, 1995 Page Two Chairperson McDermott closed the public hearing at 7:30 p.m. and opened discussion by the Commission. When questioned, Mr. Carroll stated that he had no specific objections to the proposed rezoning of the property to R -2 Single Family Attached Residential; however, he expressed his desire for answers to his questions prior to action on the rezoning. MOTION by Droste to recommend that City Council open the public hearing for the rezoning of vacant property and continue the hearing to a subsequent meeting to allow research to be conducted by staff regarding the issues presented by property owner Richard Carroll. The MOTION died for lack of a Second. Discussion continued. Chairperson McDermott stated his belief that the Planning Commission has the authority to deal with the issue of land use and that prior events regarding past rezonings and notification procedures would not be relevant to action taken on the current rezoning proposals. MOTION by McDermott to recommend to City Council the rezoning of eighteen acres of contiguous undeveloped land between Shannon Parkway, 145th Street West, and Dodd Boulevard to R -2 Single Family Attached Residential. Second by Ingram. Ayes: Tentinger, McDermott; Ingram. Nays: Droste; DeBettignies. Motion Passes. Senior Planner Mack concurred that this was a land use issue for recommendation by the Planning Commission; however, he stated that Planning staff will execute a thorough search through files to determine the procedures used for the current AG and R -3 rezonings and the findings and information from this investigation will be provided to the City Council. DUAL TRACK AIRPORT UPDATE Senior Planner Mack advised that a bill has been introduced in the Minnesota Legislature regarding the remote runway proposal. The potential site for the study for a "remote runway option" has been identified as on University of Minnesota property located in Rosemount along the 160th Street alignment. This bill was approved on February 23, 1995 and now has moved on to the State Transportation and Transit Committee. No public hearing has been scheduled as of this date. Planning staff will continue to monitor the activities of the Metropolitan Airport Commission (MAC) and keep the Planning Commission and City Council informed of the status. WENSMANN SEVENTH A-1 DITION FINAi PLAT Assistant Planner Pearson discussed the fmal plat for the Wensmann Seventh Addition consisting of 30 single family homes and 51 attached townhomes and is contiguous to the Wensmann Sixth Addition. The City Council approved the preliminary plat and planned unit development on February 7, 1995. The public hearing for the rezonings was held with action tabled until fmal plat approval. The associated zoning districts will be defined by the final plat. The fmal plat is consistent with the preliminary plat with some modifications made in response to the fire marshal and city engineer concerns for street design layout for emergency vehicles. MOTION by Tentinger to recommend to City Council approval of the final plat for Wensmann Seventh Addition subject to: 1) approval of grading, utilities, and construction specifications by the city engineer; 2) approval of blanket easement language for Lots 64, 65, 66, and 67, Block 3 Regular Planning Commission Meeting Minutes March 14, 1995 Page Three by the city attorney; 3) park dedication of Outlot A and a cash contribution of $26,240; 4) execution of Planned Unit Development and Subdivision Agreements to secure public improvements and the responsibilities of the Homeowners' Association; 5) approval by the Dakota County Plat Commission; 6) Geographic Information Systems (GIS) Dedication of $50.00 per lot and per unit totalling $4,050.00; and 7) escrow funds for future Diamond Path improvements, as approved by the city engineer.

AMOCO OIL CO. BUILDING PERMIT REOUEST: SITE PLAN REVIEW Assistant Planner Rick Pearson introduced Mr. Richard Larson, Amoco Oil Co., and Larry Kuhn, Rosemount Amoco Oil Station owner, and advised that they have submitted an application for a building permit to install a canopy over the pump islands at the Amoco Station located on the northeast corner of 145th Street West and South Robert Trail. The applicants answered questions from the Commission regarding on -site and off -site drainage patterns, ingress /egress alternatives, and curbing options along property lines for channelling vehicular and pedestrian movement along the sidewalk area. Assistant Planner Pearson noted that the site plan review depends upon the granting of a variance to front yard setback requirements in the C -3 Highway Service Commercial District. Planning staff recommends deferring action on the site plan until after the scheduled Public Hearing at 6:00 this same evening. OPO D 1 h l'IR•i, .1 '_u! IME 1I LI' Ly_tiL4_D E DISCUSSION A zoning ordinance text amendment has been proposed by City staff regarding permitted uses in the C -1 Convenience Commercial District. This amendment was originally initiated when an interest was expressed by the Rosemount Partnership Program (RPP) to locate an office within the Tom Thumb Center situated north of Dodd Boulevard and south of 145th Street West. The selection of this center was based upon its location in relationship to the high density population of Rosemount. The RPP's focus is to provide public services to residents in high density population districts. Since few alternatives are currently available, the Tom Thumb Center was viewed as a reasonable interim site until a permanent "activities center" can be constructed. Assistant Planner noted that the proposed ordinance text amendment would accomplish two objectives: 1) to legitimize the establishment of an "office use" (such as the RPP); and 2) to legitimize a variety of non conforming uses that have long existed within the district of which said uses are considered appropriate in other Dakota County cities' similar zoning district. 4111: Printed on recYcledpaper it 3 0 o' containing 30% post consumer materials. Regular Planning Commission Meeting April 11, 1995 Page Two Assistant Planner Pearson provided a detailed review of the proposed changes and lengthy discussion ensued. Staff is requesting Planning Commission input, comment and direction for the draft ordinance. The Commission asked several questions for further clarification and recommended minor modification to the draft. Suggested revisions will be prepared in the proposed ordinance and brought back for Planning Commission recommendation prior to being forwarded to City Council for fmal action. I s I► PROP. ED Z. Ilk OR LI Chairperson McDermott suspended the Regular Planning Commission Meeting and opened the Public Hearing scheduled for 6:30 p.m. The recording secretary had in her possession the Affidavit of Publication and Affidavits for Mailing Posting of Public Hearing Notice. Amoco Oil Co. has petitioned for a variance to front yard setback standards to allow for the installation of a 42 -foot by 32 -foot canopy over the pump islands at the Rosemount Amoco Station located on the northeast corner of 145th Street West and South Robert Trail. The request is for a 26 -foot variance to allow the canopy to encroach into the setback to within four feet of the South Robert Trail right -of -way. The C -3 Highway Service Commercial District requires 30 -foot front yard setbacks. The immediate property surrounding the Amoco Oil Station is in the C -2 Community Commercial District which exempts them from all setback requirements. The ordinance does provide for front yard setback reductions based upon existing structures within a district. However, in this case, the Amoco Oil Station is the only structure within the C -3 District with the rest of the buildings along the block being built according to the C -2 District setback criteria (zero front yard setback). In reviewing this variance petition with regard to surrounding uses, existing site restraining conditions, and similar uses along South Robert Trail within the C -3 District (approximately three other gasoline service station uses) Planning staff recommends that a variance may be appropriate because it meets the criteria necessary for the granting of a variance. However, upon review of the surrounding development patterns of the C -2 District and the canopy allowances in the other C -3 Districts there appears to be an established pattern of pump island canopies at twelve -foot setbacks to the right -of -way and any setback less than twelve feet for a canopy for pump islands would create a new precedent. Planning staff further believes that the opportunity exists for the enhancement of safety at the intersection of 145th Street West and South Robert Trail relative to and consistent with the necessary findings for the variance granting of variances. Therefore, Planning staff further recommends a condition to variance approval that would require the closing off of the southern most driveway along South Robert Trail because of the proximity to the intersection and the conflict of turning movements with traffic flow. Two accesses to the property still exist with the other driveway to the south of this site off 145th Street West. There were no other comments from the audience. Regular Planning Commission Meeting April 11, 1995 Page Three Chairperson McDermott closed the public hearing at 6:45 p.m. and opened discussion by the Commission. Discussion centered on Planning staff's recommendation for a fourteen -foot variance as opposed to the petitioned twenty -six foot variance and the potential for a compromise that would be both within the legal limits of the zoning ordinance and more accommodating to the petitioner. There was agreement that a setback for the canopy consistent with the building setback immediately to the north of the site would be appropriate and applicable to the findings necessary without fear of setting a precedent. MOTION by Ingram to grant 22 -foot variance to front yard setback standards in the C -3 Highway Service Commercial District for the Amoco Station located at 14460 South Robert Trail because it fulfills zoning ordinance criteria necessary for the granting a variance with the condition that southern most driveway connection to South Robert Trail be removed. Second by Tentinger. Ayes: Tentinger, McDermott, Ingram, DeBettignies. Nays: 0. Chairperson McDermott closed the Board of Appeals and Adjustments and reopened the April 11, 1995 Regular Planning Commission Meeting. Assistant Planner Pearson advised the petitioners that the variance is in effect for one year as of this date. Should they fail to construct the canopy before April 11, 1996 a new variance petition and public hearing is required. Assistant Planner Pearson further advised that an appeal process is provided for in the ordinance and a decision by the Board of Appeals and Adjustments may be appealed to City Council within thirty days of the decision. MOTION by McDermott to approve the site plan for the Amoco Station located at 14460 South Robert Trail subject to meeting the conditions for approval of the Variance Petition and conformance with all applicable building and fire codes. Second by Ingram. Ayes: McDermott, Ingram, DeBettignies, Tentinger. Nays: 0. Commissioner DeBettignies distributed copies of the handout materials that he had received from the APA Seminar he had attended on April 1st.

Z I II RD TEXT 1 1 I DI TPE' 1 D E Assistant Planner Rick Pearson recapped previous Planning Commission discussions regarding the proposed zoning ordinance text amendment that would legitimize a variety of nonconforming uses that currently exist in the City's C -1 Convenience Commercial District. Specifically, property included in the C -1 District is the Tom Thumb /TOPS Pizza commercial center located between Dodd Boulevard and 145th Street West, to the west of the SuperAmerica Gas Station and east of the townhouse /apartment complexes. As directed by the Planning Commission the revised draft all references to public uses have been eliminated. In further planning staff review of standards for the C -1 District a need for lot size limitations for convenience centers was identified. It was noted by staff that building size is driven by district lot size, setback, and lot coverage standards. Therefore, Planning staff recommended that it is more efficient to address building size restrictions by studying these elements of the ordinance. Planning Commission discussion resulted in direction to Planning staff to modify the proposed text to include reference and minimum requirements for standard lot size, building size, and to provide definition and clarification of "single use" for multi -tenant buildings and limiting maximum gross floor area for single uses. H kl► I 1 1 ED EPT PL THE E B TER PR I PERTY Assistant Planner Rick Pearson advised that International Development has submitted a concept design for a single family detached residential planned unit development on a 12.84 -acre parcel situated generally in the northwesterly quadrant of the intersection of Shannon Parkway and 145th Street West (between Hawkins Pond and Shannon Parkway). This concept consists of 35 detached single family lots with frontage reduced to sixty feet, twenty feet narrower than the 80 -foot ordinance standard; however, the average lot depth is longer than the minimum standard. This concept proposes reduced side yard setbacks on the garage side of the house to 411 five feet with a ten -foot setback maintained for all "living space" walls. This reduced setback is also a feature Country Hills PUD contiguous and to the north of subject property. If Printed on recycled paper I30 %11 containing 30$ post consumer mareriaLs. Regular Planning Commission Meeting April 28, 1995 Page Two Mr. Jack Gassner, President of International Development, and Mr. Kevin VonRiedel, RLK Architects, were in attendance and answered several questions from the Commission. A recap of the important issues was provided including further defmition and clarification of the proposed variances to lot width and building setback standards that would be addressed in a planned unit development agreement. The applicants briefly described conceivable house designs that tend to be deeper and less wide that would maintain structure separation and that would focus family recreational space to the rear of the lot rather than the side. The applicants reiterated that this proposal is informal and their request is for the Commission's response as to whether or not they fmd this concept acceptable and appropriate as an infill" development. If so, an application for a Planned Unit Development complete with street alignment and engineering details will be submitted for formal review and a public hearing to be held by the Planning Commission. Mr. John Hawkins, owner of property contiguous to the subject site, was in attendance and was recognized by the Vice Chair. Mr. Hawkins expressed concern for proposed design of the development and impacts he feels may jeopardize the future development of his property. There was general consensus by the Commission that this development proposal would be appropriate as an "infill" development because it is consistent with development patterns established in existing adjacent development. FAST TRACK ORDIN UP DATE Senior Planner Andrew Mack advised that on April 18, 1995 the City Council conducted a public hearing and approved the Fast Track Zoning Ordinance Text as recommended by the Planning Commission. Upon review of the modifications the Planning Commission recommended a zoning ordinance text amendment to Section 3.2: Definitions to include a defmition for the term "Ground Level" as used in the Fast Track Ordinance for clarification of the intent of this terminology.

A brief orientation was given on the Land Use and Master Park Plan elements of the Comprehensive Guide Plan. A change to the Plan would be reviewed to support a successful initiative. Park and Recreation Director Topitzhofer presented the Commission with a proposal asking for their endorsement for a park referendum for the area known as the Dodd Triangle. Topitzhofer cited the need for a park due to the high crime rate, larger number of people living in the area, the parking lots used as play grounds by the children and the large number of police calls to the area. The proposal would include a study to determine the basic needs of the area. Discussion ensued by the Commission regarding the nature of the Rosemount Partnership Program (RPP) facility and whether this project could be incorporated with the referendum for the fire hall. It was stated that this would not be a practical consideration for the fire station project and will not be tied to this referendum.

LI HEARI RALPH 1 ARI E PETITI. 6. MIS M Le T D D Chairperson McDermott opened the public hearing for comments regarding the Ralph Hanson Variance Petition. The recording secretary had in her possession affidavits of Publication and Posted and Mailed Hearing Notice. Assistant City Planner Pearson advised the Commission of Mr. Ralph Hanson's request for a variance to construct a single family house on a lot owned by his father, August Hanson on 130th Way. The lot is non conforming with the minimum 2.5 acre lot size in the Rural Residential District. The parcel is a lot of record that existed prior to the merger of the township. Based on the size of the lot, a recommendation was made to the Commission that Mr. Hanson provide the Commission evidence of a septic system design that meet applicable standards and is endorsed and approved by a certified septic system designer. Mr. Ralph Hanson of 2135 128th Street West, Rosemount, presented the Commission reasons for his variance request. Hanson's father had initially purchased the lot for investment purposes. Hanson intends to build a saleable single family home on the property. Mr. Bill Lindell of 2261 130th St. West presented a petition with 30 signatures requesting denial of the variance as requested by Mr. Hanson. Concerns were raised as to the septic system design/location, drainage, and well location on this property. Mr. Bill Katzenmaier of 2100 128th St. West was in attendance to express his concern regarding the neighborhood and the possibility of a precedent being set in the event this variance would be granted. Questions were raised regarding the qualifications to be certified as a septic system designer /installer. May 9, 1995 Regular Planning Commission Meeting Page Three Mr. Bruce Pylkas of 12995 Bengal Avenue suggested to the Commission the possibility of disputed property boundary areas, the possibility of a lot combination and the concern with distances to wells. Ms. Carol Beckman of 2090 130th Way voiced her concern with the storm water run -off that runs through and stands on the Hanson property. There were no further comments from the audience. Chairperson McDermott closed the public hearing. Discussion ensued regarding the design and installation of the septic system for the proposed residence. Concerns were that the septic system would be adequately designed and not affect the surrounding properties. The Commission requested that Mr. Hanson obtain a perc test and design supporting an adequate septic system. MOTION by McDermott to continue the Public Hearing until June 13, 1995. SECOND by Ingram.

UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA RIVER COMMUNITY FORUM The University of Minnesota Design Center has scheduled a forum on Wednesday, May 31, 1995 at 4:00 p.m. at Hastings City Hall to provide a summary of proposed urban design principles for the connection of cities and neighborhoods to the resources of the Mississippi River. The proposed development framework is the result of a collaborative effort of the metropolitan communities. A planning staff representative will attend the forum and the Planning Commissioners were encouraged to attend if their schedules allowed. SOLBERG MINERAL EXTRACTION PERMIT Mr. Lauren Howard, Solberg Aggregate Co. Inc., was in attendance to request renewal of a mineral extraction permit for their ten -acre parcel located on the northeast corner of County Road 42 and State Highway 52. A mining permit was granted in 1994 with an anticipated completion of the mining process by the end of that season. The required amount of aggregate material for the final site grade was not extracted as anticipated and, therefore, a renewal for the mineral extraction permit is being sought for 1995. Discussion included past excavating activity, proposed mining activity, and the plan for final establishment of turf and erosion control. Mr. Howard stated his willingness to work with Planning staff to enhance the landscaping upon completion of the final grade. MOTION by Droste to recommend to City Council approval of the renewal of the Solberg Aggregate Co. Inc. Mineral Extraction Permit subject to implementation of the 1995 Conditions for Mineral Extraction Permit Renewal. Second by DeBettignies. Ayes: Tentinger, McDermott, Ingram, Droste, DeBettignies.

Chairperson McDermott recessed the Regular Planning Commission Meeting for fifteen minutes and reconvened the May 23, 1995 Regular Meeting at 6:30 p.m. PUBLIC HEARING: SHANNON MEADOWS PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT: Chairperson McDermott recessed the May 23, 1995 Regular Planning Commission Meeting and opened the public hearing scheduled for this 6:30 p.m. The recording secretary had in her possession Affidavit of Publication and Affidavits for Mailing Posting of Public Hearing Notice.

Regular Planning Commission Meeting May 23, 1995 Page Two Assistant Planner Rick Pearson advised that Mr. Jack Gassner, President of International Development, has submitted an application for a residential single family detached concept planned unit development (PUD) for Shannon Meadows. The 12.84 -acre site is situated north of 145th Street West and west of Shannon Parkway ("Strese" and "Burkhalter" properties) and consists of 35 detached single family lots Unlike previous development proposals for this property which consisted of "zero" lot line design, the current concept proposes side yard setbacks. However, a reduced lot width from the required 80 feet to 60 feet is proposed as well as a reduction in side yard lot setbacks on the garage side from the standard ten -foot setback to five feet. Standard ten -foot setback requirements for all "living space" related walls would still apply. This concept is possible with a housing design that tends to be deeper than wide. Further, this concept provides opportunities for ample useable common open space with an overall density of 2.73 dwelling units per acre which is comparable to adjacent developments to the north (Country Hills 1st, 2nd, 3rd Additions). Kevin VonReidel, RLK Associates Ltd., consultant for the development, discussed the development concept and answered several questions from the Commission. He advised that the five -foot side yard variance may not be needed on all lots and that lot width exceptions relate specifically to the narrower house design concept. Mr. John Hawkins, 4173 145th Street West, expressed concern as to how this development will impact future development of contiguous property stating his desire that a development plan be implemented for the entire vacant property in this area for continuity of design. He further discussed his concern that no additional park /play area is being provided for this development. Mr. Ron Boyd, 3997 143rd Street West, and Mr. Roger Neitzke, 3999 143rd Street West, were in attendance and expressed their concerns regarding preservation of existing trees, whether or not on- site ponding will be sufficient for the development, and the lack of a proposed park area. Assistant Planner Pearson advised that the Parks and Recreation Committee reviewed this proposed development did not recommend a neighborhood park for this location, however, they did recommend pedestrian connections via bike paths to existing playgrounds and parks in the neighborhood. Chairperson McDermott closed the public hearing at 7:50 p.m. Commission members discussed the proposed development at length. Major concerns regarded the lack of a neighborhood park as well as issues related to lot and open space design. MOTION by Ingram to recommend to City Council approval of the concept planned unit development for Shannon Meadows Addition subject to: 1) approval of the grading and utility plans by the city engineer; 2) granting approval of the narrow house /lot concept via findings established by the planned unit development process; and 3) developer agreement to readdress the neighborhood park issue with the Parks and Recreation Committee and to follow the recommendation of the Parks Committee.

The recording secretary has placed the Affidavit of Publication and Affidavits for Mailing Posting of Public Hearing Notice on file with the City.

PUBLIC HEARING: EASTBRIDGE PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT (PUD) AMENDMENT REQUEST Vice -Chair DeBettignies opened the public hearing for a request for an amendment to Eastbridge Planned Unit Development as requested by CMC Heartland Partners. The recording secretary has placed the Affidavit of Publication and Affidavits for Mailing Posting of Public Hearing Notice on file with the City. In June 1994 a final planned unit development and preliminary plat for the CMC Eastbridge development project was approved subject to a number of conditions. One of those conditions was that an agreement between CMC and the CP Rail (Soo Line) be executed providing for the relocation of the railroad spur that bisects the proposed residential development of the CMC property. h Printed on recydedpaper S30 °o' containing 30% post- misumematerials. Regular Planning Commission Meeting June 13, 1995 Page Two Representatives for the development have indicated they are unable to secure an agreement at this time due to delay in a legal process. Therefore, they are formally requesting an amendment to this condition that would permit phases 1 and 2 to proceed with final platting and rezoning prior to procuring an agreement for the railroad spur relocation. Mr. Reid Hanson, local legal counsel, and Mr. Glenn Sexton, Director of Construction CMC Heartland Partners, were in attendance and provided a brief history of the project and explained that a federal court process has delayed progress in securing resolution to the railroad spur issue. There were no further comments from the audience. Vice -Chair DeBettignies closed the public hearing at 7:00 p.m. City staff maintains that the spur has a substantial impact on the overall design of the planned unit development and, without assurance of its relocation, the design of the development as a whole would be in jeopardy. Staff has determined that no significant changes have occurred in the factors surrounding this approval condition that would warrant its modification or removal and, therefore, recommends the applicant's request for a PUD amendment request be denied. The Commissioners discussed the request at length with Commissioners Droste, DeBettignies, and Tentinger concurring that, with no verbal or written communication from the CP Rail indicating their support of and assurance as to the relocation of the railroad spur issue, they were unwilling to risk the chances that this situation may not be resolved in a timely manner. Commissioner Ingram stated her position that this development is a positive step that will provide economic support to the City of Rosemount. MOTION by DeBettignies to recommend denial of the request to amend the Eastbridge Final Planned Unit Development (PUD) condition requiring execution of an agreement with the CP Rail providing for the relocation of the railroad spur.

PUBLIC HEARING: KOCH REFINING /WAYNE TRANSPORT MINOR COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE PLAN AMENDMENT, REZONING, CONCEPT PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT (PUD), AND PRELIMINARY PLAT Vice -Chair DeBettignies opened the public hearing to hear testimony regarding a development proposal from Koch Refining Company for their property situated near the northwest intersection of County State Aid Highway (CSAH) 42 and State Trunk Highway (STH) 52. The recording secretary has placed the Affidavit of Publication and Affidavits for Mailing Posting of Public Hearing Notice on file with the City. Senior Planner Andrew Mack reviewed the development proposal from Koch Refining Company to provide Wayne Transport trucking with a new facility on approximately 15 acres of a 55 -acre tract currently owned by Koch (former Dunn farm). Koch Refining Company has advised they are interested in acquiring the existing Wayne Transport buildings and property located in Inver Grove Heights to accommodate their immediate fire station needs. Approval of this proposal will require the following: 1) Minor Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment to add approximately 15 acres of land into the Metropolitan Urban Service Area (MUSA); 2) a rezoning from AG Agriculture to IG General Industrial a major portion of the proposed site; 3) the planned unit development (PUD) procedure is required for the multiple buildings proposed for the single parcel; and 4) approval of a preliminary and final plat for subdivision and re- subdivision of the land. Regular Planning Commission Meeting June 13, 1995 Page Three Harry Johnson, consultant, and Phillip E. Kairis, project engineer, for Koch Refining Company were present in the audience and presented a brief overview of the project and discussed general site plan issues. They responded to several comments from the audience as well as the Commissioners. Myron Napper, 3381 145th Street East, and Elroy Sell, 2975 145th Street East, were both in the audience and both expressed their concerns regarding the temporary access to County State Aid Highway 42 indicating their objection for the proposed temporary, as well as future frontage road, access point to CSAH 42. Specifically, they discussed whether or not safety issues had been considered regarding the proposed intersection in relationship to the existing STH 52 /CSAH 42 intersection to the east. Dennis Ozment, 3275 145th Street East, advised that the proposed alignment of the service road would impact buildings on his property. However, in his capacity as State Representative, Mr. Ozment advised he had some involvement in the STH 52/55 corridor improvement process and expressed his belief that the long term plan of this PUD appears to accommodate alignment of a planned frontage road along State Trunk Highway 52 which will ultimately provide for an improved and safer working environment and vehicular movement for the area. Details for temporary and final access issues can be addressed as development proceeds based on requirements and comment from both the county and state highway departments. There were no further comments from the audience. Vice -Chair DeBettignies closed the public hearing at 8:35 p.m. Senior Planner Mack advised that the proposed project is consistent with the intent of the City's Comprehensive Land Use Plan for industrial development of this property, therefore, rezoning to IG General Industrial is appropriate. The PUD also provides opportunities for the attraction of new business and the retention and expansion of an existing business in this area of the region which will expand employment opportunities and increase and diversify the City's tax base. Commission members discussed the proposed development at length. The major issue identified was a safety issue for proposed temporary access in the close proximity to the major CSAH 42 /STH 52 intersection. The Commissioners agreed that further review and additional studies regarding the safety issue be conducted by the County Highway Department.

However, the comments provided by the Planning Commission may assist Mr. Wensmann with his decision to proceed with acquisition of the property as well as site design issues. PROPOSAL The project consists of 112 townhouses of two types: 76 "Deckhomes" similar to a style existing in Apple Valley. The deckhome has as two car garage with a front entry. Most of the living space is above the garage and stepped back so that the area above the front of the garage is deck space. Living room, dining and kitchen are behind the deck with typically two bedrooms and a bathroom above on a third level. Units back up to neighboring units so that interior units have three party walls and end units have two party walls. 36 single level townhouses arranged in clusters of four which would have the characteristics of a single level "quad". The area considered to be the preferred location for a fire station has been treated as a module with a single cluster of forteen deckhomes. A conceptual property line has been drawn to show how the parcel may be detached from the larger area for acquisition and fire station development if a referendum is passed. Approximately 1.3 acres of property would be researved for park use in a location suitable for access to adjacent existing multiple family landuses. .1 Printed on recycled paper W$ containine 3n pon- rnn.umevuraterr..,- June 13, 1995 Planning Commission Worksession Wensmann Triangle Discussion Page 2. DENSITY The R -2 zoning district standards allow attached housing developments of upto 6 dwelling units per acre. Planning Staff calculates the combined vacant land to be 18.53 acres without including right -of -way. A resulting potential density yield of 111 units would be appropriate which includes the proposed park and ponding area. The anticipated site for the fire station consists of 2.8 acres and contains 14 dwelling units. Removal of the acreage and dwelling units raises the density of the remaining 98 units on 15.73 acres to 6.23 dwelling units per acre. The number of dwelling units will have to be reduced to 91 in order to comply with the density limitations if 2.8 acres is acquired for a fire station as the result of a past bond referendum. STREETS A single north -south public street is proposed that would connect 145th Street west to Dodd Blvd. A second private street connecting to Dodd Blvd would enclose the north and west sides of a stormwater pond. The private street would connect to Dodd Blvd across from Covington Avenue and the public street connection would be approximately 330 feet to the east.

Several examples were cited with relation to the setback from various rights of way including highways and railroads. Discussion ensued by the Commissioners regarding a comparison of Rosemount to surrounding cities. From a study that was done 2 -3 years ago it was found that Rosemount is less restrictive. The Commission directed staff to write a proposal for the setback ordinance and return this draft to them in 2 weeks for their review. TEXT AMENDMENT FOR BUSINESS PARK Assistant Planner Pearson advised the Commission that he had been approached by a potential developer who was interested in constructing a mini storage facility on the property located on the west side of Highway 3, south of the movie theater. The proposed use is non conforming to the zoning of this property. This facility would require a text amendment to allow for this use. It was the consensus of the Commission that this facility could be better located within the Business Park, without the need for a text amendment.

The proposed garage would encroach five feet into the ten foot side yard setback. Mr. Nesbit of 14233 Cobbler Avenue cited that the lack of storage space at his residence created a hardship for him. He further stated that a future sale of this property would see a decrease in value of the home based on the lack of storage space. He contended that he pursued other options but aesthetically the additional garage attached to his home was the best alternative. Nesbit stated that his Realtor did not represent his interests to the builder and his inability to directly converse with the builder created a lack of understanding of what his needs were and how they were to be met. The Board acknowledged letters from Douglas Nesbit, petitioner; Noel Wellman, Burnet Realty; Ileen Gertz, neighbor to petitioner; and Ron and Cecille Haye, residents of Shannon Hills 4th Addition. There were no further comments from the audience. Discussion ensued by the Board siting various alternatives and the positioning of the residence in relation to other residences in the area. MOTION by Tentinger to deny the variance requested for 14233 Cobbler Avenue based upon the inability to make the necessary findings as required in Section 15.2G of the Zoning Ordinance.

Wright, contractor for Mr. Mrs. Burns, stated that this variance will facilitate an alternate septic site adjacent to the proposed site. It was further noted that the lot is wooded and also encompasses an approximate 2/3 -acre pond. Granting of this variance will provide maximum use of the lot while limiting loss of trees, risk of pond contamination, and allowing room for an alternate septic system site. Planning staff advised that several nonconforming setbacks exist in this Rural Residential District and the findings as required in Section 15.2 of the Zoning Ordinance have been determined. There was further discussion regarding city engineer recommendations. There were no further comments from the audience.

The recording secretary has placed the Affidavit of Publication and Affidavits for Mailing Posting of Public Hearing Notice on file with the City. The concept PUD consists of two types of attached single family housing proposed for 18.5 acres of land situated between Dodd Boulevard, Shannon Parkway, and 145th Street West. This proposed townhouse project is consistent with ordinance requirements for the R -2 Attached Single Family Zoning District with a density of six dwelling units per acre. The development, consisting of 111 residential units including 60 three -story townhouse units (deck homes) and 50 single level units arranged in "quads also includes a 1.5 -acre park. Terry Wensmann, Wensmann Realty, Inc., stated that the modified sketch plan reflects Planning Commission comments and input. Additional discussion included access and drainage, as well as proposed park use. Douglas Julie Grage, 3815 147th Street West, expressed concern regarding park design with reference to pedestrian access, safety, and security. They stated that their property backs up to the proposed development and access to the area is currently directed abutting their property. Ms. Renee Stevenson stated her opposition to the proposal because it was her understanding that the property would be developed for low income housing. The Planning Commission, developer, and staff assured those present that the property is not publicly subsidized for low- income housing, but will, in fact, be listed for sale to individual homebuyers which traditionally means that the units will be owner occupied The previous rezoning to a lower density residential district addresses several issues of security and should provide a deterrent to the current safety issues regarding of this property. Chairperson McDermott closed this public hearing at 8:00 p.m. and opened discussion for the Commission. It was the consensus of the Commission that this residential planned unit development is an enhancement for this area. There was also agreement that the park should remain as green space with no provisions for a parking lot or building(s). MOTION by Ingram to recommend to City Council approval of the concept plan for the Wensmann Homes, Inc. Residential Planned Unit Development subject to: 1) incorporation of engineering recommendations relative to grading and utilities plans and ponding capacity in the final development plan; 2) enhancement of emergency vehicle access consistent with recommendations made by the fire marshal; 3) City Council acceptance of 1.5 (as proposed) or up to two (2) acres for park development with the balance of the park dedication being in the form of cash contribution; 4) conformance with Section 12.2 of the City of Rosemount Zoning Ordinance for PUD final development plan review requirements, as well as platting requirements specified by the Subdivision Ordinance; and 5) that the park consist entirely of green or open space.

Public Hearing: Dakota County HRA Senior Housing Project Chair McDermott opened a public hearing to hear public testimony for the review of the Dakota County Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) Senior Housing Project at 8:10 p.m. The recording secretary has placed the Affidavit of Publication and Affidavits for Mailing Posting of Public Hearing Notice on file with the City. Regular Planning Commission Meeting Minutes July 25, 1995 Page Four Senior Planner Andrew Mack advised the Commission that the Dakota County HRA has submitted several required applications to initiate the approval process for the redevelopment of property situated on the west side of Cameo Avenue, south of 146th Street West and north of Lower 147th Street West. This project is a joint undertaking by the City of Rosemount, Rosemount Port Authority, and Dakota County HRA. Mr. Mack summarized each application which support the intent of the HRA to complete acquisitions of property and combine multiple parcels under single ownership, while proceeding with the preliminary land use and zoning approvals necessary to authorize development of a 40 -unit senior housing project. Planning staff has determined that the proposed project meets the intent of the City's Comprehensive Guide Plan objectives, serves to enhance the supply of senior housing within the community, commits a substantial investment in the redevelopment of the core area, and provides future senior residents with a location convenient to retail goods and services. Diane Nordquist, HRA project supervisor, gave a slide show presentation of other HRA senior housing projects in area communities illustrating the quality of the product that Rosemount can expect to see. Ms. Nordquist and the HRA's architect expressed a willingness to respond to and work with neighborhood design issues /concerns as well as staff recommended project approval conditions. Neighborhood residents in attendance included Ms. Judith Heimer, 3135 Lower 147th Street West, Gerald Stoffel, 3100 146th Street West, Donna McDonough, 3215 Lower 147th Street West, Colleen and John Oxborough, 14690 Cameo Avenue, Ms. Renee Stevenson, 14600 Cameo Avenue, and Ms. Lynn Kitzro, 3120 Lower 147th Street West. The following list includes several concerns identified by this group: 1) minor discrepancies between the legal notice map and the legal description and the actual property that will be acquired for the project were identified; 2) concerns were identified regarding the alignment of the southern driveway with the northern driveway to the Methodist Church; 3) a property owner adjacent to the northwest corner questioned why his property was not acquired or was not proposed to be acquired as part of the project and also questioned if he would have an opportunity to acquire property from the HRA to expand his rear yard; 4) a concern was identified regarding a perceived loss of privacy in their backyards that would be theoretically visible from upper stories of the proposed structure; 5) a potential for increased traffic was identified as a concern; 6) the proposed land use was questioned on the basis of incompatibility with existing land uses; 7) safety issues were raised regarding the potential for pedestrian access to the downtown central business district; 8) objections to the location of the parking lot and security lighting were expressed by adjacent residents; 9) confusion regarding land use classifications and related compatibility issues resulted from questions directed to inappropriate and uninformed third parties; and 10) In addition, further questions were raised regarding adequacy of parking, storm water ponding, and the impact of the proposed building on prevailing breezes. There were no further comments from the audience. Therefore, Chairperson McDermott closed the public hearing at 9:45 p.m. Lengthy discussion ensued by the Board regarding the issues presented by those present.

Assistant Planner Pearson commented on the facts of the Hanson Variance Petition and its progress through the Planning Commission meetings. Ralph Hanson requested a continuance of the Public Hearing to September 15, 1995. McDermott opened discussion to the public since the petitioner was not present. Bill O'Dell, an adjoining neighbor to the Hanson lot development, urged Commissioners to come out and walk through the lots to visualize how close this house is proposed to be to the neighboring homes. O'Dell said development in this way will not "fit" with the existing neighborhood. Assistant Planner Pearson noted that the owner of a legal lot has the right to develop. Attorney Reid Hansen, representing the neighborhood families, stated that this situation has gone on for an extended time already and that a deadline should be set so a conclusion can be reached. Hansen questioned the exact time that the lot was created in order to determine which rules of the Rosemount Zoning Ordinance are applicable. Hansen viewed a warranty deed dated February 20, 1980.

CMC Heartland Partners 1: Eastbridge II: An application has been received from CMC Heartland Partners 1 for approval of a Concept Planned Unit Development (PUD) for their property lying east of the SOO Line Railroad right -of -way (ROW), north of County Road 42 and west of the proposed Bridgewater Parkway. Two concepts have been submitted with the Developer's preferred concept consisting of 113 townhouses on approximately 22 acres of land. This scenario would require a redesignation of land use in the Guide Plan of 8.3 acres from commercial to residential. Because of this inconsistency with the Comprehensive Guide Plan's Land Use Designation Planning staff was not in support of this proposal. A second proposal is a mixed use PUD consisting of approximately 74 townhouse units with a commercial element. At the time of packet preparation for this meeting, this concept was not available for formal staff review. Glenn Sexton, CMC Heartland Partners 1, was in the audience and answered questions regarding this second proposal. Discussion included access, street alignment, ponding areas, and setbacks. The majority of the commissioners expressed their preference for the commercial component in the second proposal. MOTION by DeBettignies to recommend to City Council denial of the CMC Heartland Partners 1 request for concept PUD approval for a development proposal consisting entirely of townhouses because the southern 8.3 acres of the proposed PUD is inconsistent with the Comprehensive Guide Plan.

BOARD OF APPEALS ADJUSTMENTS Vice -Chair DeBettignies recessed the September 12, 1995 Regular Planning Commission Meeting and opened the Board of Appeals and Adjustments to hold a scheduled 6:00 p.m. public hearing that was continued from August 8, 1995 for the variance requested by Mr. Ralph Hanson to construct a single family dwelling on a nonconforming lot of record on 130th Way in the RR Rural Residential District. The continuance came at the request of the petitioner to allow for additional time to provide evidence of a feasible septic system design and functional alternative septic system location. The recording secretary has placed the Affidavit of Publication and Affidavits for Mailing Posting of Public Hearing Notice on file with the City. Assistant Planner Rick Pearson provided a description of the request and a chronology of prior events and actions leading to this evening's request for granting of this variance. The request involves a six foot front yard setback variance and variance to minimum lot size for an on -site septic system. Mr. Hanson has addressed several issues identified by the Commission and staff. He has reduced the footprint of the house in response to a previously requested side yard setback encroachment eliminating the necessity for a variance to side yard setback. The revised septic system design includes an alternative site that meets all minimum standards with no conflicts with existing roadway and drainage and utility easements along 130th Way. The Building Inspections Division has reviewed and endorsed the new septic design and alternative septic system location. Planning staff recommends approval of the variance because it meets all criteria required for the granting of a variance. Mr. Tom Lewis, representative for the petitioner, summarized the changes that had been made to meet the City's minimum requirements noting that the revised site plan provides minimum lot disruption to existing topography and vegetation. Mr. Reid Hanson, representative for adjoining property owners, addressed the Board reiterating his clients' concerns expressed in prior meetings which included: 1) concern that the addition of another private septic system and well in a neighborhood already teeming with numerous private wells and septic systems could pose a health problem by contributing to groundwater contamination; 2) disruption of existing trees and foliage on the subject property; 3) impact on area drainage patterns; and 4) specifically, the proposed location of the alternate septic system drainfield in relationship to the abutting property owner's well. Further, Mr. Hanson noted that he had done research on the recording of this property and could not find any evidence that subdivision of this lot occurred prior to October 19, 1972. Therefore, it is his contention that this property does not meet the City's requirements for establishment as a legal lot of record. Mr. Bill Lindell, 2261 130th Way, and Ms. Shirley Barthel, 12962 Bacardi Avenue, reaffirmed their agreement with Mr. Hanson's summary of the issues of concern as stated. Tom Lewis advised that he too had done research on the recording of this property and while he was not able to find documentation for legal subdivision of the subject property, he did discover conclusive documentation regarding the legal recording of bordering properties in 1969, 1970, 1971, 1973, and 1977. Further, this property is legally recorded at in the Dakota County Recorder's Office and has been assessed as a buildable lot since 1972. This evidence strongly suggests that the subject lot existed prior to 1972.

Also in attendance were Senior Planner Andrew Mack, Assistant Planner Rick Pearson, and Civil Engineer Doug Litterer. Eastbridge II: Concept Planned Unit Development: Assistant Planner Rick Pearson presented for Planning Commission review two planned unit development concepts submitted by CMC Heartland Partners for undeveloped land between their single family Eastbridge subdivision, railroad right -of -way, and north of County Road 42. On September 12, 1995 the Planning Commission recommended denial of the concept that involved residential uses only due to this proposal's inconsistency with the Comprehensive Guide Plan's Land Use Designation. Action was tabled regarding the proposal for a mixed use PUD combining commercial and residential uses to allow the property owner the opportunity to develop conceptual detail for the commercial element of the plan. The revised plan includes approximately 60,000 square feet of commercial uses divided between three building pads and a residential component consisting of 74 townhouses in 17 clusters of four units and two twin clusters. Mr. Glenn Sexton, CMC Heartland Partners I, provided a presentation of the conceptual plan and draft design for the residential /commercial mixed use development proposal. Mr. Sexton responded to issues raised in the staff report. Discussion included access and circulation, parking, screening, park issues and a landscaping plan. There were several comments from the audience. Mrs. Zanmiller, 2745 145th Street West, expressed concern about the potential impact to her property located to the north of this proposed subdivision. Mr. Greg Budinger, 14680 Biscayne Way, requested information regarding the types of uses for the proposed commercial property, provision for garages for townhouse units, and what impacts will the rail line and rail spur have on the development. Mark Deforrest, 3643 152nd Street West, asked questions regarding park location and design. Commissioner Droste questioned whether the existing access point to the quonset hut site located on the northeasterly intersection of CSAH 42 and STH 3 would have an impact on proposed access to this Eastbridge development. Planning staff advised that further review and evaluation will occur with regard to proposed and existing access points prior to recommendation for final planned unit development and preliminary plat. MOTION by Droste to recommend to City Council approval of the concept for the Eastbridge Townhome mixed use planned unit development subject to: 1) incorporation of Engineering and Park Department recommendations relative to access, circulation, grading, utilities, and park dedication; 2) enhancement of the landscaping plan in the commercial yard adjacent to the residential use to screen the loading docks and driveway from view; 3) approval by the Dakota County Plat Commission; and 4) conformance with the subdivision and zoning ordinances for PUD final development plan review, platting, and rezoning requirements.

The 3.6 -acre parcel is legally described as Outlot A, Carrollton Addition, and is currently zoned R -1 Single Family Residential. The replat for Outlot A consists of eight single family lots, seven fronting on 144th Street West and one gaining access from Chili Avenue. Discussion included consideration for preservation of significant trees currently on the property. Planner Pearson advised that the proposed replat exceeds minimum zoning and subdivision ordinance requirements and is consistent with the Comprehensive Guide Plan. MOTION by Droste to recommend to City Council approval of the preliminary replat for Outlot A of Carrollton Addition subject to: 1) building pads, grading practices, and erosion control methods must be accomplished according to minimum standards on file with the city engineer; 2) provision of one boulevard tree per lot frontage in accordance with ordinance requirements with credit to be given for preservation of existing significant trees; 3) Park Dedication in the form of cash contribution for the amount of $5,120; and 4) GIS fees totaling $400.00.

McNamara Property: Concept Planned Unit Development (PUD): Assistant Planner Rick Pearson provided a summary an application submitted by Chippendale /42 Partnership, property owner and developer, and their request for concept approval for a mixed use commercial /residential planned unit development. The 77 -acre parcel combines commercial and 411 residential uses on undeveloped land that fronts on the south side of County Road 42, between Shannon Parkway and Chippendale Avenue and is currently zoned AG Agriculture and guided in the City of Rosemount Comprehensive Guide Plan's Land Use Designation for PD -MU Planned Development Mixed Use. The project will require a Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment to bring all or a portion of the northern half of the site into the Metropolitan Urban Service Area (MUSA). John Voss, development consultant for the property owner, was present and responded to questions regarding this proposal. The Chippendale /42 Concept PUD proposes low density attached housing of six to eight dwelling units per acre adjacent to existing single family houses to the south and a variety of commercial uses along CSAH 42. A centrally located parcel has been defined in accordance with the Planning Commission direction to provide space for a "big box" commercial use. This parcel is 11.8 acres in size which is larger than the area occupied by the Rosemount Market Square PUD. Several residents were present for comment and raised several issues regarding the proposed development of this site. Kelly Sampo, 3589 152nd Street West, expressed concern regarding drainage impacts to abutting properties, questioned the need for more gas stations and fast food restaurants, and adequate parking for commercial uses. Kris Davis, 3661 152nd Street West, cited ponding, adequate buffer and screening between commercial and residential uses, park area, overdevelopment of commercial area, impact on public services for traffic and pedestrian safety and security, and noise as questions that should be addressed. Bill Day, 14955 Crestview Avenue, discussed vandalism, traffic, and environmental impact concerns. Mr. Day also questioned whether adequate time and scope of notice to property owners was sufficient. Assistant Planner Pearson advised that this was not a formal public hearing as mandated by State Statute. However, the City issued a notice to all property owners within the state mandated 350 feet of the subject property as a courtesy invitation to this informational meeting and discussion by the Planning Commission to provide and opportunity for initial public input and Page 2 of 4 Planning Commission Meeting September 26, 1995 comment. These comments will be forwarded to the City Council along with the Planning Commission recommendation and become a part of the legal record at the formal public hearing which is proposed to be held by City Council in November. The floor was opened for further public discussion. Mr. Mark Deforrest, 3643 152nd Street West expressed concern for adequate berm and landscaping between residential and commercial uses and, further, stated his opposition to a single large retail proposal. Lee Schuldt, 3764 Upper 149th Street West, stated that information had been related, by a local builder, that commercial was not planned nor was it intended for this property and that the current market does not support the proposed commercial element of this development. Kelly McGivern, 15173 Claret Avenue, related her concern about the proposed "big box" retail area, ponding issues, and whether it was wise or desirable to extend commercial further to the west of Chippendale Avenue into existing residential areas. Tracy Morgan, 14950 Colorado Avenue, noted that she opposed further commercial development on this site. Mr. Steve Werner, 3864 Upper 149th Street West discussed concern for increased noise and traffic should late -hour (i.e. fast food) commercial uses be sited on this property. He further stated that he felt he had been misled about how the McNamara property would be developed. Joel Heimkes, 15201 Claret Avenue, discussed traffic issues and his opposition to additional commercial in this area. Doug Cashman, 15265 Columbary Circle, requested identification of the "downtown" and what area it encompasses and his fear that too much strip commercial /retail development would draw business away from a defined "downtown." Mr. Mark Lindell, local consultant present for another agenda item, reiterated that consideration for further commercial strip development along County Road 42 would be detrimental to current efforts for emphasis and re- establishment of the Rosemount "downtown." Mr. Ron Bennet, 3966 Upper 149th Street West discussed this concern that the proposed commercial uses would not be consistent with his expectation for a large single user. Further, the construction of fences for security by residents abutting the commercial property could be an attraction for vandalism. Mr. Bennet further expressed concern for overdevelopment of commercial areas within the City with no regard for marketability, increased traffic, and appropriateness of additional commercial uses along County Road 42. The Planning Commission discussed storm water management issues, proposed variances, townhouse design, vehicular and pedestrian traffic patterns, increased traffic, potential for reduction of proposed commercial development in future phases, variances, aesthetic treatment, and residential density issues. Lengthy discussion ensued. MOTION by Ingram to recommend to City Council approval of the concept for the mixed use planned development presented by Chippendale Partners subject to: 1) incorporation of Engineering and Park Department recommendations relative to access, circulation, grading, utilities, and park dedication as outlined in their reviews for the Chippendale Partners development; 2) Blocks 8 and 9 densities shall be limited to six (6) dwelling units per acre; 3) approval by the Dakota County Platting Commission; 4) elimination of identified variances to setbacks for buildings and parking or the Planning Commission must forward findings as required in Section 12.2 of the Zoning Ordinance to the City Council in support of any variances; Page 3 of 4 Planning Commission Meeting September 26, 1995 5) provision of conceptual information regarding Lot 9 intended for residential uses, if part of phase 1; 6) conformance with the subdivision and zoning ordinances for PUD final development plan review, platting, and rezoning requirements; 7) approval of a Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment to add the commercial elements of Blocks 1 and 2 into the Metropolitan Urban Service Area; 8) a traffic study must be conducted; and 9) Block 10 be retained for commercial use for ten years and any residential uses be limited to 12 dwelling units per acre.

Mr. Mickelson owns approximately 16.9 acres in numerous parcels in an Agriculture District north of the Valleywood Golf Course. Mr. Mickelson will combine all contiguous parcels eliminating the need for variances for setback encroachments and reduce additional needs for cross access easements. The combination of the parcels still does not fulfill the requirement for lot frontage on a public street. Mr. Mike Mickelson informed the Board that he has had discussions with Valleywood Golf Courses regarding the acquisition of land needed for a right of way but that no agreement has been reached at this time. John Slizer, 4090 120th Street West, expressed concern over potential development to the east of the parcel under discussion. Planner Pearson advised that no development is being planned at this time. Chairperson McDermott closed this public hearing at 7:30 p.m. and opened discussions for the Commission.

Planner Pearson advised the Board of the request from Zorn/Mahowald for a variance to allow the construction of a septic system and alternative location that does not meet the City's setback criteria for septic systems from DNR regulated lakes. The proposal exceeds the DNR standard by 25 feet, but is 50 feet deficient by City standards. Mr. Zorn was present to discuss his request for a variance to the setback requirement for a septic system. He indicated that he intended to combine Lot 5, Block 1, Lan -O -Ken with the meets and bound property he owns directly to the north. Access to the parcel would be from 132nd Court via the current Lot 5. He indicated that there is a possible easement on this lot for the gas line to the old Brockway Glass site. Bernie Mahowald, builder for Mr. Zorn indicated the gas line to lie on the easterly lot line and then into the water. Lori Anderson, 2650 W 140th Street, expressed concern with this septic system and the possible effects if could have on her property. Jerry Anderson, 2295 Bonaire Path, raised concern with the septic system and the water level of the lake. Chairperson McDermott closed the public hearing and opened up the floor to Board discussion. Discussion ensued by the Board regarding the establishment of the high water levels, the placement of the septic system, and the possibility of an easement for a gas line.

Rosemount National Bank Site Plan Review PUBLIC HEARING 15055 Chippendale Avenue PROPOSAL Mr. Joe McNamera is requesting site plan review approval for an addition to the Rosemount National Bank. The existing 9,200 sq. ft. structure will be increased to 16,860 sq. ft. and the site will be improved for parking, circulation and access to the anticipated 151st Street West. The property is in the C -4 General Commercial District and improvements will be integrated with the Chippendale Partners development proposal for the undeveloped land to the west and south. DISCUSSION The current property consists of approximately 5.3 acres not including right -of -way (ROW) for CSAH 42 on the south east corner of Chippendale Avenue and CSAH 42. The existing bank and associated access, circulation and parking is concentrated on the north half of the site. The proposed westerly extension of 151st Street West that will connect Chippendale Avenue and Shannon Parkway will bisect the property creating a 2.3 acre for the bank and the remnant will be south of the new 151st Street West ROW. It is also anticipated that the platting of the larger McNamera property will result in additional ROW needed by Dakota County for CSAH 42. Consequently, the site plan review will assume a 151st Street ROW that is opposite of the existing intersection between Chippendale Center and Evergreen Gardens. The remnant parcel may be reconfigured as part of the Chippendale Partners development proposal or it may be developed individually. Planning Staff's recommendation will be that the remnant parcel will be considered as part of the Chippendale Partner's PUD. In addition, the ROW of Chippendale Avenue will be increased to a collector street width standard similar to the O'Leary's Hills plats to the south. As a result, an additional 17 feet •S Printed on recycled paper 3O containing 30% Iv post consumer materials. J CITY OF ROSEM0U NT CITY HALL 2875 -145th Street West i S, 9 n P.O.

The anticipated additional ROW needs should be considered in the design of the driveway system and parking lots. The eventual platting of the larger McNamera property will include the bank site. SITE PLAN The site will ultimately have primary access from 151st Street West. Parking is located on the south side of the building and a one way counter clockwise loop will provide circulation to the drive through and around the building and back to the parking lot. The parking lot will have two way circulation on the east side only. A small building containing an ATM machine is proposed at the exit point of the parking loop. An alternative ATM location is shown at the outer drive through lane. The driveway at Chippendale Avenue will ultimately be limited to a right -in, right -out with a median separating the north and southbound lanes on Chippendale Avenue between 151st Street and CSAH 42. PARKING 54 spaces will be provided which exceeds the minimum requirement of 43. Planning Staff will recommend that the angled parking that is across from the 90 degree parking should be modified so that parking designs are consistent when accessed from a single maneuvering lane. One or two additional parking spaces will be created as a result. BUILDING CHARACTERISTICS The 7,660 sq. ft. building addition is a combination of increased "footprint" as well as adding another story. The building materials selections are intended to match the existing design. Brick will provide the corner vertical elements with most of the upper story being a combination of glass over EFTS (prefabricated "stucco" panels). A standing seam metal roof will include gables and a clerestory window for a vaulted ceiling. LANDSCAPING The proposed landscaping greatly exceeds the requirements. The required materials: Shade Trees Evergreens 8 required 1 1' Panted on recycled paper 3 containing 30% Nia Oir post- consume/ materials. CITY OF ROSEMOUNT 2875— 145 t h Street West P.O.

Ornamental Trees 0 required Foundation shrubs 34 required Proposed materials: Shade Trees Evergreens 23 indicated Ornamental Trees 7 indicated Foundation shrubs 113 indicated The site plan has been modified several times and the landscaping plan was drawn on a previous concept. Therefore, the plan will change slightly, but the proportions are still significant. OTHER ISSUES As previously hinted, the site plan represents a third revision that the Architect has provided in response to a variety of issues that have been identified during the internal development review process. Not the least of which is the coordination of the bank site plan with the Chippendale Partners mixed use planned unit development. Interim construction measures will occur. Most notably, will be the site development timing with the improvements of 151st Street west of Chippendale Avenue. Another interim situation will be a temporary office structure for the continuance of business activities during the building and site construction process. RECOMMENDATION MOTION to approve the site plan for the Rosemount National Bank subject to: 1. incorporation of engineering recommendations relative to circulation, interim improvements, drainage and utilities; 2. modification of the eastern half of the parking "island" to 90 degree parking and locating the ATM at the option "B" location; and, 3. conformance with applicable building and fire codes.

Proposed By: H E Architects Phone No. 645 -4263 (N A) 300 Liberty Bank Bldg.. Fax No. 645 -6253 1573 Selby Ave.. St. Paul. MN 55104 Type of Request: Site Plan Review For Approval the Following Conditions Must Be Met for Approval: As the Rosemount National Bank property will be platted with the adjacent Chippendale /42 Partnership 80 Acre PUD many of the conditions of approval will be tied to that platting process. Many of the proposed site improvements will need to be coordinated with the construction of the 151st Street on the south side of the proposed bank site. It is imperative to remember that both the City and the developer wish to only have to construct the bank parking lot area once with a driveway to 151st Street. Since the design of 151st Street will be forthcoming in the next few months, Staff believes that the issues can be coordinated as the development of 151st Street and the Chippendale Partners PUD forges ahead. Other conditions of approval: 1. Drainage off the parking lot area as shown is acceptable with the condition that when 151st Street is built, catch basins and storm water piping necessary to connect to 151st Street be constructed. Meanwhile, since the storm water runoff from the site currently flows to the wetland area immediately to the west of the bank, the wetland area will require an easement described on the initial plat for the Chippendale /42 Partnership property, or as a separate document if the Partnership is not platted in 1996.. 2. Pending the forthcoming traffic analysis for the Chippendale /42 Partnership PUD, Staff is under the assumption that a median will need to be constructed on Chippendale Avenue between CSAH 42 and 151st Street. If the median is not completed by 1997, the bank shall install a center triangular median at its access on Chippendale Avenue to direct traffic as a right in /right out only. 3. The developer shall pay any additional Sanitary Sewer Access Charges (SAC) for Metro and City, any additional Water Access Charges (WAC) for the City and additional Storm Water Access Charges (STAC) with the Building Permit. Furthermore, it is understood that the developer of the Chippendale /42 Partnership will pay STAC Charges for the Bank site when that is platted in 1996. The following are general comments of review by the Engineering and Public Works Department of the Plan Sheets, titled "Site Plan" and "Landscape Plan Both Plan sheets are dated November 21, 1995. Drainage Facilities The drainage currently flows off the bank site to the west to a wetland on the adjacent parcel. Since this parcel is owned in part by the same owner as the bank, this situation can continue with the understanding that an easement is required around the wetland in 1996, whether or not the Chippendale /42 Partnership plat is completed in 1996. In the future, catch basins and piping will be necessary to direct runoff to either 151st Street or an enhanced ponding area to the west of the bank site. This is somewhat dependent on the development of the Chippendale /42 Partnership site. Sanitary Sewer Sanitary sewer service for the bank is provided by a trunk facility in Chippendale Avenue and flows to the Rosemount Wastewater Treatment Plant. It should be adequate to service the addition to the bank. It appears that this service is provided on the 151st Street alignment. A manhole on the 151st Street driveway appears as though it needs to be raised or accessible (it apears paved over). Watermain The bank is provided water service off a 6" line from a 16" trunk in the 151st Street alignment. This line should be adequate for domestic water service but should be investigated for fire flow need and hydrant locatioh by the Fire Marshal. Streets The revised plan shows one driveway connection to 151st Street West and this should be located a minimum of 250' from the centerline of Chippendale Avenue. The access to Chippendale Avenue shall be a right in /right out only and a center triangular median directing traffic in such a manner by the end of 1997 if the median on Chippendale Avenue is not constructed. Appropriate signage per MUTCD standards shall be installed. Sidewalks and Trails There currently exists a trail on the west side of Chippendale Avenue. In the forthcoming reconstruction of Chippendale Avenue, this trail will be reconstructed and placed on the newly proposed right -of -way. Ped ramps shall be constructed at all street and driveway crossings. City Standard Plate Number 7036 shall be used. A future trail will be constructed on the south side of CSAH 42, again in the new right of- way when the Chippendale /42 Partnership PUD is approved and constructed. Easements and Right -of -Way Seventeen additional feet of right -of -way is required on Chippendale Avenue, but will be accepted when the entire 80 acre site is platted with the Chippendale /42 Partnership. Preliminary information from the Dakota County Plat Commission is that 100' of Y2 right -of- way will be required on CSAH 42. If there is not one recoreded, a utility easement is required immediately over the sanitary sewer and watermain on the 151st Street alignment Permits The developer shall submit a City of Rosemount "Permit Application for Installation of Utilities, Street Excavation or Driveway Access Within City Right -of -Way or Easements" before commencing with work in City right -of -way or easements. Fees and Assessments GIS fees will be collected with the Plat of the Chippendale /42 Partnership which will plat over the bank property which is currently a metes and bounds described parcel. This amount is $100 per acre for commercially zoned property in 1996. As mentioned with the Chippendale /42 Partnership Concept Plan Review, there will most likely be assessments associated with any improvements necessary for Chippendale Avenue including the construction of a median on Chippendale Avenue between CSAH 42 and 151st Street. Any additional Sanitary Sewer Access Charges to Metro ($900 for 1996) and any additional Sanitary Access Charges for the City at the 1996 fee rate of $1,185 shall be collected with the Building Permit. In addition a Storm Sewer Access Charge of $2,820 (1996 fees) will be collected with the Building Permit for the impervious area, which is undetermined at this time, plus an additional $2,820 per gross acre with the platting of the Chippendale /42 Partnership..
