SUMMARY The Planning Commission is being asked to consider a request from CNC Development IV, LLC, for approval of a Final Plat for Emerald Isle 2nd Addition to allow development of 57 single family lots. This plat represents the second project phase of a multi-phase preliminary plat approved by the City in May, 2020. The final plat for the first phase of development was approved by the City Council at its meeting on September 15 of this year. The final plat is necessary to facilitate subdivision of the subject property into individual residential lots, outlots, and public streets. Staff finds the application consistent with the 2 Emerald Isle Preliminary Plat and recommends approval of this application subject to the conditions detailed in the attachments and the motion above. Applicant: CNC Development IV, LLC. Plat Acres: 48.68 Met Council Net Acres: 48.68 Residential Lots Created: 151 preliminary lots, 57 final platted lots Gross Density: 2.16 Units/Acre (single family 151/70.07 acres) Net Density: 2.16 Units/Acre Comprehensive Plan Guiding: LDR-Low Density Residential, Current Zoning: R1 PUD-Low Density Residential Planned Unit Development Surrounding Land Uses North: Low Density Residential East: Agriculture South: Public/Institutional West: Medium Density Residential BACKGROUND In May 2020, the City Council approved a preliminary plat, Planned Unit Development (PUD) master development plan with rezoning, and reguiding of a portion of the site to permit construction of 151 single family lots with a multi-family project to be approved in the future along the southern border. The current final plat is the second final plat of the project. This plat will create a connection with the extension of Connemara Trail in the southwest corner of the site. An amendment to the City’s comprehensive plan was approved by Council concurrently with the Planned Unit Development Master Development Plan for Emerald Isle in May. The comprehensive plan amendment approval process through the Metropolitan Council is underway and anticipated to be completed by January 13, 2021. The Amendment is related to the southern portion of the 2nd Addition and the land slated for a future apartment building. A drainage and utility easement has been dedicated over the entire Emerald Isle 2nd Addition plat area with the recording of Emerald Isle 1st Addition. Council will be taking action to vacate that easement in January. A condition of approval is the dedication of all required easements for Emerald Isle 2nd Addition including an easement over land to be used for site’s internal stormwater management as well as ponding in conjunction with a project to improve the intersection of Akron Avenue and County Road 42. This area is located along County Road 42 where the concept plan for the apartment building showed ponding south of the pipeline easement that bisects the site. A sketch of the regional ponding easement is included with the attachments as well as an overall site plan that includes the concept for the apartment building in Outlot B. ISSUE ANALYSIS Legal Authority . This application is a Quasi-Judicial action. The final plat application is Quasi-Judicial because the City has a set of standards and requirements for reviewing this type of application that is described in detail below. Generally, if the final plat meets the ordinance requirements and is consistent with the preliminary plat, it must be approved. Land Use and Zoning . The proposed 57-lot single family final plat is consistent with the current land 3 use and zoning classifications. The subject property is guided LDR – Low Density Residential and zoned R-1PUD, Low Density Residential Planned Unit Development. As a result, the property is subject to all the standards of the R-1, Low Density Residential zoning districts as well as the standards for detached single family units contained in the approved PUD. While this development is subject to all of the conditions and development standards contained in the PUD, the most notable deviations from the requirements of the Low Density Residential zoning districts are provided below. All these items were anticipated in the preliminary plat approval and were part of the initial PUD approval. 1. Section 11-4-5 F. 1. R-1 Minimum Lot Area: The minimum lot area shall be 8,125 square feet for interior lots and corner lot minimum of 10,625 square feet. 2. Section 11-4-5 F. 2. R-1 Minimum Lot Width: The minimum lot width shall be 65 feet for interior lots and 85 for corner lots. 3. Section 11-4-5 F. 5. R-1 Minimum Side Yard Setback: The minimum side yard setback shall be 7.5 feet. 4. Section 11-4-5 F. 6. R-1 Minimum Rear Yard Setback: The minimum rear yard setback shall be 25 feet. 5. Section 11-4-5 F. 9. R-1 Maximum Lot Coverage: The maximum lot coverage shall be 30% for lots over 10,000 sf and 40% for lots under 10,000. Final Plat. Standards for reviewing subdivision requests are detailed in Title 12 of the Rosemount City Code. This section of the Code outlines the two-step Preliminary and Final Plat process for land subdivision. In this case, the preliminary plat was approved in May 2020 consisting of 151 single family lots and various outlots. Staff finds that the final plat is consistent with the preliminary plat and meets the requirements of the zoning ordinance. Streets & Access. The sole access to the first phase of development came from Addison Avenue in the northwest corner of the development area. Lots within the 2nd Addition will be accessed by an eastern extension of 142nd St E that ends in a cul-de-sac. On the western side of the plat area, Aspen Avenue will be extended south where it will meet a short extension of Connemara Trail that will provide an additional access point into this phase of development. As development continues within Emerald Isle, Connemara will be extended to the eastern development boundary to provide additional access into the development and also to the future apartment building site. Water and Sanitary Sewer. Sanitary sewer is available to the site via the existing Metropolitan Council interceptor which currently traverses the site. The developer received a permit from the Metropolitan Council to connect the sanitary sewer directly into the line. The elevation of the sewer must be deep enough to also serve the property to the east, should it develop in the future. Water service will be extended from the adjoining developed property. Development fees as detailed in the Engineer’s Memo dated December 7, 2020, are due with the final plat and subdivision agreement. Landscaping The landscaping plan provided shows one tree on the front yard of each interior lot and two trees on each corner lot as required by the City Code. Additional landscaping is shown in the area near the stormwater pond in the northern portion of the plat area as well as along the short extension of Connemara Trail. The landscaping plan for this phase of development is consistent with the overall landscape plan approved with the Planned Unit Development Agreement. The applicant is required to submit a letter of credit of $39,270 to ensure individual lot landscaping as well as the landscaping located in the common areas. Storm Water Management. The developer will be managing the stormwater on site with the use of retention and infiltration basins. Since approval of the preliminary plat, the City and Dakota County have 4 been talking to the applicant about expansion of the southern pond in Outlot B to permit regional ponding associated with the Akron Avenue signalization improvement project. A drainage and utility easement over the entirety of Outlot B was dedicated with Emerald Isle 1st Addition. The applicant would like to vacate that blanket drainage and utility easement, which staff is supportive of so long as a drainage and utility easements are dedicated over all areas to be used for the regional and on-site ponding. The two ponding areas are south of Connemara Trail and south of the pipeline easement. A recommended condition of approval is dedication of both drainage and utility easements. The applicant’s attorney has sent a letter requesting the City not require dedication of a blanket easement over outlot B. He has asked that the letter be included in the packet. As mentioned above, the conditions of approval require specific easement dedication, within the purview of the City. Staff is moving the final plat forward so the Commission can make a formal recommendation to the City Council. The City Attorney and staff are working to arrive at final resolution about the applicant’s concerns prior to the Council taking final action. Parks and Open Space. The Rosemount Parks and Recreation Department reviewed the plans for Emerald Isle and is recommending cash in-lieu of land to meet the park dedication requirement for the proposed development. The requirement for 57 single family units is $193,800 (57 x $3,400). The Parks and Recreation department is also recommended a trail along County Road 42 with the trail access provided with development of the southern apartments. Coordination should occur with connections to the Vermillion Highlands Greenway as well as the trail crossing just west of the development area within the old City Hall site. Sidewalks Sidewalks are provided throughout the development on at least one side of all streets, which is consistent with City policy. A sidewalk is shown on the north side of Connemara Trail and a bituminous trail will be constructed along the south side. This is consistent with the pedestrian facilities elsewhere along Connemara in this vicinity. Sidewalk connections are provided to the adjacent neighborhoods. CONCLUSION & RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval of the Final Plat for Emerald Isle creating 57 single family lots, subject to conditions. This recommendation is based on the information submitted by the applicant, findings made in this report, and the conditions detailed in the attached memorandums.

After reviewing the plans, the Parks and Recreation Department staff has the following comments: Local Trails and Sidewalks The trail and sidewalk amenities appear to be designed in a manner that works toward the City’s goal of having a well-connected community. The proposed trail and sidewalk system is designed to match up to the existing/proposed system. Staff does recommend that accommodations are made for a trail to be added along County Road 42 in the future. Parks Dedication The parks dedication requirement for 151 single family units is either 6.04 acres of land, cash in-lieu of land or a combination of the two. Staff is recommending that the City collect cash in-lieu of land for the single-family development that is currently being processed. The cash dedication for 151 units would be $513,400 (151 x $3,400 per unit). Please let me know if you have any questions about this memo.

Tietjen, Esq. Kennedy & Graven, Chartered Fifth Street Tower 150 South Fifth Street, Ste. 799 Minneapolis, MN 55402 BY EMAIL Re: Emerald Isle 2nd Addition Dear Ms. Lindquist and Ms. Tietjen: We represent CNC Development IV, LLC with respect to its Emerald Isle development in the City of Rosemount (the “City”). Previously, we wrote to the City and Dakota County with regard to the City’s unlawful imposition of a blanket easement condition on the plat of Emerald Isle 1st Addition, Outlot B. At the time, CNC Development objected to the City’s demand for the easement, which has the effect of clouding title to any future sale or use of the property without affirmative City action to remove the easement. As a consequence of the City demand, Dakota County withdrew a then-pending offer to purchase land within the area encompassed by Outlot B for use as a future stormwater pond, stating that the City’s imposition of an easement over the outlot negated the need to purchase it from CNC. The action of the City, in tandem with Dakota County, effects a taking without payment of just compensation to CNC Development. CNC Development has now submitted its application for Emerald Isle 2nd Addition, which proposes to remove the unlawful easement over a reconfigured Outlot B. At the City’s request, Outlot B was sized to allow a multi-family project to be pursued at some future point in time. We understand the City is again insisting that Outlot B be encumbered with a new blanket easement notwithstanding no use of Outlot B is currently planned for it. We restate our objection to this proposed condition of platting. Minnesota law provides specific authority for the City to review and approve proposed plats to address specific uses and requirements associated with active development. Minnesota law does not allow the City to unilaterally impose easement conditions on property that is not being reviewed for an active use. We understand City staff has confirmed it has no requirement in its Kim Lindquist Mary D. Tietjen, Esq. December 11, 2020 Page 2 subdivision ordinance to support its easement condition, even if state law were to allow it. Rather staff asserts it is City policy to make this demand over property which the County has conveniently identified for use as a pond. The City’s and County’s coordinated effort to take valuable property without payment of just compensation is improper and should be rejected when the plat application for Emerald Isle 2nd Addition advances through the City approval process. Please include this letter in the record of proceedings relating to Emerald Isle. If you have questions, please feel free to call me directly. Sincerely, Peter J. Coyle, for Larkin Hoffman Direct Dial: (952) 896-3214 Direct Fax: (952) 841-1704 Email: pcoyle@larkinhoffman.com cc: CNC Development IV, LLC Rosemount Mayor and City Council 4836-6369-2500, v. 1 EXCERPT FROM FEBRUARY 26, 2020 PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES 5.b. Request by CNC Development IV, LLC., for Planned Unit Development Master Development Plan with Rezoning, Preliminary Plat, and Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment Approval to develop 151 single-family lots. (20-09-PUD, 20-10-PP, 20-11-RZ, 20-12-CP)) Planner Nemcek gave a brief summary of the staff report for the Planning Commission. Kenninger inquired about the proposed land use change map and if Flint Hills has first right of refusal adjacent to the subject property. Nemcek stated that is correct. Kenninger stated that the left over commercial, east of the site, would be effectively abandoned. Schmisek stated that he has a concern about losing any commercial property but thought that little piece would be cut off. Another concern is that of the additional traffic on Connemara Trail. Schmisek inquired if there are any talks about changing the intersection at Connemara and Akron, such as a round-about or a signal light. Lindquist stated signal lights will be installed at Akron and County Road 42 but none are proposed at Connemara. Reed inquired about the flow of the sidewalks on Connemara Trail. Engineer Smith stated that the trail and sidewalk along Connemara Trail will be extended into this subdivision and that Dakota County will be installing an underpass under County Highway 42 so that pedestrians will have a safer place to cross the highway in this area. The public hearing opened at 6:58 pm. Public Comments: Kenninger inquired how the new single-family home owners will be notified that an apartment building is also planned to be built near their new homes. Rick Osberg, Engineer, James R. Hill, Inc., stated that they have been working with staff to get to today’s plan. The property owners do not have an interested party to build the apartment currently. Besides the fact that the property is guided for high density there isn’t much information to give to a potential buyer. Rivera questioned if the stub road would be a future through road. Nemcek stated that is correct. MOTION by Rivera to close the public hearing. Second by Schmisek. Ayes: 5. Nays: 0. Motion Passes. The public hearing was closed at 7:03 pm. Additional Comments: Kenninger stated that her biggest concern was with changing the zoning of this area. But also agrees that this is a great use of the land. She would like to ensure that the 151 new homeowners are aware that there will be a future apartment building on the property next to this site. She requested that be added as a condition of approval. Reed stated that since having the trail system continue through Connemara Trail he is in favor. Schmisek inquired if there will be access from the development to Connemara Trail. Nemcek stated that from the commercial there will be one access point onto Connemara Trail. MOTION by Freeman to recommend that the City Council approve a Comprehensive Guide Plan amendment to reguide 20 acres of the development site from MDR-Medium Density Residential to LDR-Low Density Residential and the southeast 10 acres of the site from CC-Community Commercial to HDR-High Density Residential.
