Johnson Preliminarv Plat and Rezoning for Oakridge Estates Community Development Director Rogness reported that the Planning Commission held a public hearing for Oakridge Estates. This development would divide the 53-acre parcel into ten lots with a street going north-south through the center with access on McAndrews Road(County Road 38) and then ending on the northern boarder. Dakota County is objecting to the access on Count Road 38 because it is inconsistent with their access spacing guidelines based upon a four-lane design and projected traffic volumes of 17,000 ADT. The County would require access to be aligned with Danbury Avenue which is partially on a neighboring parcel.The Planning Commission recommended that the City Council consider requesting a variance from Dakota County Plat Commission for access on McAndrews Road at the point indicated on the preliminary plat. The developer agreed to reimburse city staff for their time. City Council discussed various options. Approval of the rezoning to Rural Residential and approval of the preliminary plat will be withheld until the results of the variance request is known. MOTION by Edwards to direct staff to apply for a variance to Dakota County access spacing guidelines with the Dakota County Plat Commission. Second by Carroll.
