Country Hills 4th Addition Final Plat/PUD Amendment The Commission previously received a set of plans, illustrating the total Country Hills PUD, 4th Addition plat, 4th Addition grading plan and 4th Addition utility plan. The original Country Hills PUD consisted of 567 single family lots, to be developed in six phases. Three additions have been approved, providing 379 improved lots. Approximately 75% of the lots are built and occupied. The current development plan illustrates 545 lots, with four to six remaining phases. The 4th Addition consists of 34 single family lots and two outlots. Outlot A is contiguous to Block 2 and is proposed to be retained by a homeowner's association as open space. Outlot B is a remnant of property contiguous to the 3rd Addition, which is proposed to be replatted into single family lots in a future addition. The 4th Addition lot characteristics are consistent with the PUD Agreement, approved in 1986. All lots meet the required 10,000 square feet area. All lots meet the 75 feet minimum lot width at the setback line. Average lot area in the 4th Addition is 14,000 square fe)et.�Avera e lot width is 78 feet. 6verzylktngs (Pouring (U p �osevnouvilP 461 100% /!C yr: KO pyN Regular Planning Commission Meeting Reviews April 9, 1991 Page Two Due to actions of the City, it is appropriate to initiate an amendment to the PUD development plan and PUD agreement. During platting of the 3rd Addition, the City and developer agreed to changes in the alignment of Shannon Parkway and the proposed park land dedication in the 6th Addition. These changes were prompted by the joint ISD 196/City development of Shannon Park Elementary School/community park. The revisions included an easterly shift in the alignment of Shannon Parkway, the reduction of park land dedication by U.S. Home Corporation and the installation of streets and utilities in unplatted areas. These revisions have caused a minor reconfiguration of the lotting plan for the balance of Country Hills and a change in phasing, due to the existence of utility improvements. It is also necessary to address the modification of the park land dedication. The original PUD identified approximately 6.6 acres of future community park land in the 6th Addition. Approximately two acres of land was dedicated due to the alignment change in Shannon Parkway. An additional 30 acres was jointly "acquired" by the City and school district on the adjacent Kelley Trust property. U.S. Home Corporation "owes" the City 4.6 acres of land due to the revisions noted. Technically, because the overall development illustrates 545 lots, 22 less than the original 567 lots, the effective remaining land dedication is 3.7 acres. U.S. Home Corporation is proposing to dedicate the 11 -acre "Bigger Pond" area to satisfy the requirement. Portions of this property are permanently under water, portions seasonally flooded and portions above the flood elevation. This dedication is expected to be accepted by the Parks and Recreation Committee at their April 15, 1991 Regular Meeting. I have put this item on the Planning Commission's April 9, 1991 Regular Meeting Agenda, due to the risk of having to cancel the April 26, 1991 Regular Meeting. Commissioners Busho and Edwards will be at the Blandin Foundation "retreat" and we're still not aware of Commissioner Gundacker's return date. I would prefer not withholding a recommendation on the plat/PUD until the May 14, 1991 Regular Meeting. The unresolved issues at this point are not unusual in the normal approval process. The developer has petitioned the City to design and install the 4th Addition streets and utilities. All plat approvals are subject to final design. The site is currently zoned R-1 Single Family Residential. In consideration of the information presented and the discussions above, I would offer the following recommendations: A MOTION to approve Country Hills 4th Addition Final Plat, subject to the following: 1. Recommendation of the Parks and Recreation Committee; 2. Approval of the final grading and utility plans; 3. Approval of the revised Planned Unit Development; 4. An amendment to the Country Hills PUD Agreement; 5. A subdivision development contract. A MOTION to approve the revised Country Hills Planned Unit Development, subject to the following: 1. Recommendation of the Parks and Recreation Committee; 2. An amendment to the PUD Agreement. • COUNTRY HILLS DEVELOPMENT ROSEMOUNT, MINNESOTA ;.:..� •m-2 BY THOMPSON LAND DEVELOPMENT DIVISION ' U.S. HOME CORP.
