Qbhf!3!pg!31 Joint Work Session Memo To:Rosemount City Council and Planning Commission From:Jeff Miller and Beth Richmond, HKGi Date:February 1, 2024 Subject:Zoning Code Update Overview th At the July 11 City Council / Planning Commission work session, planning consultants (HKGi) and city staff presented an overview of the Zoning Code Update project. HKGi provided a follow-up rd presentation at the October 3 joint work session focused on the key topics addressed by the Zoning Code Update project since July. While the July work session focused on updating of the rd zoning districts, the October 3 work session focused on updating the code’s standards including general development standards (parking, landscaping, architectural design), signs, and use specific th standards, as well as proposed solutions to issues raised at the July 11 joint work session. th The February 6 work session will cover the remaining topics in this code update project, including standards for specific uses, development procedures, definitions, and the zoning map. The work session will also include a short discussion focused on the next steps in the process as the City prepares for adoption of the updated code. Our intent is to provide the Council and Commission with an update of the project and an opportunity to ask questions and give input on the final set of code changes being recommended. th The focus of the February 6 City Council / Planning Commission work session will be on the following topics: •Standards for Specific Uses – purpose and how they are used •Development Procedures – primarily public input •Definitions – particularly for new uses identified in the code •Updated Zoning Map and Steps to Adoption Purpose of the Zoning Code Update The Zoning Code Update project is required to ensure consistency between the zoning/subdivision codes and the 2040 Comprehensive Plan. The City Council adopted the 2040 Comprehensive Plan Update in March 2020. This project is not making any changes to the 2040 Comprehensive Plan and the 2040 Future Land Use Map remains in place. The intent of this update is to address the aspects of the zoning/subdivision codes that are in conflict with the 2040 Comprehensive Plan or have not been updated to address current development market trends/changes. The intent is also to create zoning and subdivision regulations that are modern, consistent, and user-friendly. While both the zoning and subdivision codes are part of this project, there are not major updates to the subdivision code since it was just updated in 2020. 800 Washington Avenue North, Suite 103 Minneapolis, MN 55401 Qbhf!4!pg!31 Joint Work Session Memo Zoning Code Update February 6, 2024 Code Reorganization At the beginning of the Zoning Code Update project, HKGi reviewed the overall organization of the zoning and subdivision codes and provided recommendations for reorganization. The intent is to improve the code’s structure to make it easier for users to navigate and find needed regulations, as well as for staff to administer it. Some key highlights of the code reorganization are: Reduced the number of zoning districts from 21 to 13 Streamlined current zoning districts by reorganizing allowed uses and dimensional standards (lot sized, building setbacks, etc.) into tables and relocating other standards to more appropriate sections Reduced the zoning districts chapter from 96 pages down to 8 tables and 5-6 pages Reorganized standards by scale: all districts, individual districts, specific uses Added a new chapter focused on use specific standards so they are easier to find Addressed the confusing content of Chapter 2 (General Provisions) which is currently a catch-all chapter with 20 sections that are not necessarily related – most of the sections have been relocated to other chapters that make sense Updated Structure of the Zoning Code (Title 11) As a reminder, the new chapter structure of the Zoning Code is: Chapter 1Purpose and Interpretation Chapter 2General Provisions Chapter 3Residential Districts Chapter 4Non-Residential Districts Chapter 5Special/Overlay Districts (shoreland, wetland, MRCCA, floodplain, planned unit development). Chapter 6Use Specific Standards Chapter 7Development Standards (e.g., parking, landscaping, tree preservation, lighting, fencing, architectural design) Chapter 8Signage Chapter 9Development Procedures (e.g., conditional use, variance, planned unit development) Chapter 10Definitions We look forward to another productive meeting on the Zoning Code Update project! 2 Qbhf!5!pg!31 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY City Council Work Session: February 6, 2024 AGENDA ITEM: Code Enforcement Procedures AGENDA SECTION: DISCUSSION PREPARED BY: Adam Kienberger, Community Development AGENDA NO. 2.b.

Logan Martin, City Administrator ATTACHMENTS: 2024-2033 CIP APPROVED BY: LJM RECOMMENDED ACTION: Review and provide direction on the 10-year CIP BACKGROUND As part of the annual budgeting process, City staff completed a thorough review and update to the City's ten-year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP). The three major CIP funds include Streets, Equipment, and Buildings/Facilities. The Park Improvement fund and utility funds are also included in the CIP process. By engaging in a comprehensive capital planning process, the City is able to anticipate and save for large expenditures while ensuring that funds allocated towards these areas remain consistent. An updated CIP is attached; items in blue are locked into contracts (leases, etc.) and items in purple are recurring funds meant to build funds for capital outlays. Many of the significant projects shown in the CIP address improvements to the City's park system, roadway infrastructure, and utility projects associated with anticipated development. The major projects are shown below. Parks & Recreation Projects The City's CIP continues to show investment in the parks and trails system, both to improve the current system and install amenities in new neighborhoods. Trail construction at Dunmore Greenway ($35,000) Completing the plans and specs for the UMore ballfield building ($90,000) Construction of a new neighborhood park in Dunmore ($550,000) Construction of a new neighborhood park in Talamore ($550,000) Design of park improvements at McMenomy Woods ($40,000) Design of the North 20-adjacent segment of the Greenway Trail ($35,000) There are also projects planned in 2025 for the following: Construction of a neighborhood park in Caramore Phase 1 ($800,000) Amber Fields dog park ($400,000) Qbhf!7!pg!31 Major Road Projects In 2024, the project planned is for the Street Improvement Program for the O'Leary Hills neighborhood for $825,000 as the City continues to finalize the projects from 2023. Public Works & Utility Projects Many of the City's vehicles fall under a leasing program, but some replacements are included in the CIP for 2024. Single-Axle Dump Truck ($290,000) Cold Planer Attachment for the Skid Loader ($30,000) Groundmaster Mower ($26,513) Some key utility projects of note have been identified in the CIP. County Road 42 and Akron Avenue Traffic Signal Watermain Extension ($200,000) Well 17 Construction ($2,500,000) Aspen Avenue Extension ($600,000) County Road 42 and Blaine Avenue Trunk Watermain and Pressure-Reducing Valve Relocation ($3,250,000) Additional Projects Design for Central Park and former Public Works site improvements ($60,000) Replacement of the windows on the Central Park shelter ($40,000) The timing of some of the projects is contingent upon the needs as development continues throughout the City. The CIP is updated annually to ensure that annual changes are taken into account. At the December 5th Work Session, City Council requested an in-depth review of the CIP to further understand the needs and projections of the City. RECOMMENDATION Staff will review the CIP with Council and ask for direction on any requested changes.
