City of Rosemount Planning Commission
FROM: Jason Lindahl, A.LC.P., Assistant City Planner
DATE: September 18, 2003
RE: Simple Plat —14380 Blaine Avenue
BACKGROUND
The applicant, Flint Hills Resources, requests a simple plat for the property located at 14380
Blaine Avenue. Currently, the subject property is one parcel containing eight single family
homes. The applicant proposes to subdivide this property into four individual lots. Lots 1, 2,
and 3 will each contain one single family home while lot 4 will remain undeveloped. The
five other single family dwellings on site will be removed by Flint Hills.
This subdivision is necessary to create four lots which meet the minimum lot dimensional
standards for properties in the AG, Agriculture District and to allow Flint Hills to sell these
properties. Staff reviewed this application against the performance standards for properties
in the AG, Agriculture District and Subdivision Ordinance. Our findings are detailed below.
ISSUE ANALSIS
Land Use & Zoning. The subject property is guided and zoned AG, Agriculture.
Similarity, the existing land use is 8 single family dwelling units on one property. The
houses that will remain on each lot meet the minimum performance standards for these
zoning and land use designations.
Lots. , The applicant plans to subdivide the existing 13.2 acre property into four individual
lots. As proposed, Lots 1, 2, and 3 will each contain one single family home (buildings A, E,
and H) while lot 4 will remain undeveloped. These lots and buildings meet the minimum
performance standards for properties in the AG, Agriculture zoning and land use categories.
Detailed information regarding these proposed lots is illustrated in the table below.

Access. As proposed, Lots 1 and 2 will share an existing access onto Blaine Avenue. Lot'
3 is requesting a new access. This request must be approved by Dakota County prior to
recording of the subdivision. Lot 4 will also utilize an existing access to Blaine Avenue.
In addition to these accesses, the applicant plans to remove much of the existing
north/south driveway connecting the site. ` The applicant's plan illustrate that the existing
driveway will be remove from the northern edge of Lot 3 to the existing cul -de sac on Lot
4.
Right -of- Way. According to the City Engineer, Dakota County will most likely require
the applicant to dedicate an additional 50 feet of land for future right -of -way along
County Road 71 (Blaine Avenue). The applicant shall revise their plat to conform with
the right -of -way requirements set forth by Dakota County.
Utilities. The applicant's plans illustrate the existence of on -site utilities including cess
pools and wells. Each lot will be required to have a well, septic system, drain field and
backup drain field in conformance with all Pollution Control Agency (PCA) standards.
The applicant will be required to demonstrate that each property can meet this standard.
Easements. All four lots shall include the necessary easements as required by the City
Engineer. In addition, Lots 1 and 2 shall have a shared access and driveway easement to
allow access from both properties to Blaine Avenue. These easements must be recorded
with the proposed subdivision.
Park Dedication. This subdivision will create 3 new residential lots. As a result, the
applicant will be required to pay $5,400 (3 X $1,800) in park dedication fees. These fees
shall be paid to the City prior to recording of the proposed subdivision.
Home Removal. The zoning ordinance allows only one principal building per lot.
Therefore, the applicant will be required to remove buildings A, C, D, F, and G prior to
recording this subdivision with Dakota County. The Rosemount Fire Department has
expressed interested in using some of the houses for practice burns. Fire Marshall George
Lundy will contact Don Kern of Flint Hill to discuss this possibility.
2
CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of simple plat for the property located at 14380 Blaine Avenue.
This plat subdivides the existing 13.2 acre parcel into 3 lot- containing existing single family

removed by Flint Hills Resource. Staff reviewed this application against the performance
standards for properties in the AG, Agriculture District and Subdivision Ordinance. Our
review found this proposal to be in compliance with the minimum lot dimensional and use
standards for properties in this district. This recommendation is based on the material
submitted by the applicant and the findings contained in this report. It is also subject to the
conditions outlined below.

Jason, this is to confirm our conversation earlier where we determined that building "E"

Fax 952.891.7097
www.co.dakota.mn.us FLINT HILLS ESTATES. Said plat is adjacent to CSAH 71 and CSAH 42, and is therefore
subject to the Dakota County Contiguous Plat Ordinance.
Representatives from the City of Rosemount and Flint Hills Resources provided the Plat
Commission with very helpful information regarding this plat and the vision for
development in the area. The access spacing guideline on CSAH 71 from the intersection of
CSAH 71 and CSAH 42 is an eighth mile. The plat indicates less than the eighth mile
spacing guideline and the City of Rosemount recommended a variance for an access opening
on CSAH 71 along Lots 3 and 4. The Plat Commission approved the variance for access
spacing of less than an eighth mile.
The Plat Commission has approved the final plat and will recommend approval to the Board
of Commissioners when the plat is submitted in signed Mylar form.
No work shall commence in the County right of way until a permit is obtained from the
County Transportation Department and no permit will be issued until the plat has been filed
with the County Recorder's Office. The Plat Commission does not review or approve the
actual engineering design of proposed accesses or other improvements to be made in the
right of way. The Plat Commission highly recommends early contact with the
Transportation Department to discuss design features of any construction in public right of
way. The County Transportation Department permit process reviews the design and may
require construction of highway improvements, including, but not limited to, turn lanes,
drainage features, limitations on intersecting street widths, allowance and size of medians,
etc.

RE: Flint Hills Estates
Dear Mr. Johnson:
Please accept this letter and attachment in response to your correspondence of October 8 and 23,
2003. Don Kern of Flint Hills Resources has provided an alternative strategy for access to
County Road 71with the objective of resolving the issue with the Dakota County Plat
Commission.
The position of the City Planning Department is that the plat represents a reduction of housing
density and substantial resolution of agricultural residential non - conformity. The proposal to
change the current situation of eight existing houses on one parcel to three remaining houses,
each on an individual parcel consistent with Agricultural district lot standards is supported by
staff. Agricultural residential density standards apply to the plat and adjacent properties, which
will prohibit additional housing units under current zoning. Rosemount has adopted a one
dwelling unit per forty -acre density standard for its Agriculture District.
In an effort to consolidate residential access and provide access flexibility for potential future
development, the plat has been revised. Individual driveway access to County Road 71 has been
eliminated from Lots 3 and 4. In return, a sixty -foot wide easement for a potential future street
will align with the church access to the west. The access for lots 3 and 4 will utilize the
easement. The easement also provides the potential for future access to the undeveloped land east
of the plat as an alternative to its current frontage along CSAH 42. As before, access to lots 1
and 2 will be shared along their common property boundaries.
The plat will be placed on a future City Council agenda pending the outcome of the County Plat
Commission review. If you have any questions, I can be reached at 651 -322 -2052.
Thank you for your assistance.

Apple valley, MN 55124 -8579 The Dakota County Plat Commission met on October 20, 2003, to reconsider the
preliminary plat of FLINT HILL ESTATES. Said plat is adjacent to CSAH 71 and CSAH
952.891.70&7
Fax 952.891.7097 42, and is therefore, subject to -the Dakota,0ounty Contiguous Plat_ Ordinance.
-
www.co.dakota.mn.us Access for the property to the east should be considered through this development from
CSAH 71. Restricted access must be shown along CSAH 42 and CSAH 71 except for two
access openings (joint driveways serving lots 1 and 2 and 3 and 4). The County's Right of
Way Guideline for a 4 -lane divided highway is 75 feet of half right of way and for a 2 -lane
rural highway is 55 feet of half right of way. Therefore, adequate right of way must be
dedicated to Dakota County along both CSAH 42 and CSAH 71.
The Plat Commission does not approve this plat as submitted.
Traffic volumes. on CSAH 71 are 1,500 and are anticipated to be 3,000 ADT by the year
2025. Traffic volumes on CSAH 42 are 16,800 and are anticipated to be 24,640 ADT by
the year 2025. These traffic volumes indicate that current Minnesota noise standards for
residential units could be exceeded for the proposed plat. Residential developments along
County highways commonly result in noise complaints. In order for noise levels from the
highway to meet acceptable levels for adjacent residential units, substantial building
setbacks, buffer areas, and other noise mitigation elements should be incorporated into this
development.
No work shall commence in the County right of way until . a permit is obtained from the
County Transportation Department and no permit will be issued until the plat has been filed
with the County Recorder's Office. The Plat Commission does not review or approve
actual engineering design - of. proposed accesses or other improvements to be made in the

4955 Galaxie Avenue Re: FLINT HILLS ESTATES
Apple Valley MN 55124 -8579 The Dakota County Plat Commission met on October 6, 2003, to consider the preliminary plat
952.891.7097 of FLINT HILLS ESTATES. Said plat is adjacent to CSAH 71, and is therefore, subject to the
Fax 952.991.7097 Dakota County Contiguous Plat Ordinance.
www.co.dakota.mn.us
The Plat Commission did not approve this preliminary plat as submitted
The Dakota County Planning Department's zoning information from the City of Rosemount
indicates this area to be zoned as agricultural (1 lot on 40 acres). The Plat Commission has no
information indicating the City of Rosemount has changed this. If zoning has been changed,
the Plat Commission has concerns regarding the potential for additional development to the
east, and where that access would come from. The proposed access from Lot 4 does not meet'
the County's guidelines with respect to its proximity to CSAH 42, and would not be allowed.
There would potentially be one access point allowed from CSAH 71 to Lots 3 and 4. Said
access point would need to be directly across from the church access to the west.
Traffic volumes on CSAH 71 are 1,500 and are anticipated to be 3,000 ADT by the year 2025.
These traffic volumes indicate that current Minnesota noise standards for residential units could
be exceeded for the proposed plat. Residential developments along County highways
commonly result in noise complaints. In order for noise levels from the highway to meet
acceptable levels for adjacent residential units, substantial building setbacks, buffer areas, and
other noise mitigation elements should be incorporated into this development.
No work shall commence in the County right of way until a permit is obtained from the County
Transportation Department and no permit will be issued until the plat has been filed with the
County Recorder's Office. The Plat Commission does not review or approve actual
engineering design of proposed accesses or other improvements to be made in the right of way.
The Plat Commission highly recommends early contact with the Transportation Department to
discuss design features of any construction in public right of way. The County Transportation
Department permit process reviews the design and may require construction of highway
improvements, including, but not limited to, turn lanes, drainage features, limitations on -
intersecting street widths, allowance and size of medians, etc.

RE: Flint Hills Estates
Dear Mr. Johnson:
Please accept this letter and attachment in response to your correspondence of October 8 and 23,
2003. Don Kern of Flint Hills Resources has provided an alternative strategy for access to
County Road 71with the objective of resolving the issue with the Dakota County Plat
Commission.
The position of the City Planning Department is that the plat represents a reduction of housing
density and substantial resolution of agricultural residential non - conformity. The proposal to
change the current situation of eight existing houses on one parcel to three remaining houses,
each on an individual parcel consistent with Agricultural district lot standards is supported by
staff. Agricultural residential density standards apply to the plat and adjacent properties, which
will prohibit additional housing units under current zoning. Rosemount has adopted a one-
dwelling unit per forty -acre density standard for its Agriculture District.
In an effort to consolidate residential access and provide access flexibility for potential future
development, the plat has been revised. Individual driveway access to County Road 71 has been
eliminated from Lots 3 and 4. In return, a sixty -foot wide easement for a potential future street
will align with the church access to the west. The access for lots 3 and 4 will utilize the
easement. The easement also provides the potential for future access to the undeveloped land east
of the plat as an alternative to its current frontage along CSAH 42. As before, access to lots 1
and 2 will be shared along their common property boundaries.
The plat will be placed on a future City Council agenda pending the outcome of the County Plat
Commission review. If you have any questions, I can be reached at 651- 322 -2052.
Thank you for your assistance.
