SWIFT Contract # 260984
This Agreement is between the State of Minnesota, acting through its commissioner of Public
Safety on behalf of the Bureau of Criminal Apprehension ("BCA"), and the City of Rosemount on
behalf of its Fire Department ("Governmental Unit”).
Recitals
1 Under Minnesota Statutes § 471.59, the BCA and Governmental Unit are empowered to
engage in such agreements as are necessary to exercise their powers.
2 The BCA is the State Identification Bureau for the State of Minnesota and is responsible
for fingerprint identification services including submission of civil, fingerprint-based
background checks to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (“FBI”) subsequent to
conducting Minnesota records checks.
3 The Governmental Unit has a state statute, Minnesota Statutes, § 299F.035, that has
been approved by the United States Attorney General as compliant with Public Law 92-
544.
4 The Governmental Unit wants to access federal data in support of its duties to conduct
background checks as provided by law.
5 The purpose of this Joint Powers Agreement is to memorialize the requirements for
Governmental Unit to obtain access and the limitations that apply to the information that
Governmental Unit obtains.
Agreement
1 Term of Agreement
1.1 Effective Date. This Agreement is effective on the date the BCA obtains all required
signatures under Minnesota Statutes § 16C.05, subdivision 2.
1.2 Expiration Date. This Agreement expires five years from the date it is effective.
2 Agreement Between the Parties
2.1 Request Submission. Governmental Unit agrees that it will collect fingerprints from
those individuals for whom a Minnesota and federal fingerprint-based background
check will be conducted. Governmental Unit will forward the fingerprints and other
documentation to the BCA. The fingerprints will be captured so they meet the
requirements of National Institute of Standards and Technology Special Publication

card are completed.
Fingerprints received by Governmental Unit will be forwarded to the BCA using a
secure method.

Clause 2.1, the BCA will conduct a check of the Minnesota criminal history repository
Page 27 of 148
DPS/BCA NCJA Federal Background Check JPA (Aug. 2024) 2
for any records that match the fingerprints submitted. Any results of a fingerprint
match in Minnesota will be returned to the Governmental Unit with the federal
results.
The BCA will also forward the fingerprints to the FBI for processing. The BCA will
receive the response from the FBI, redact any data the Governmental Unit is not
entitled to receive and forward the results to the Governmental Unit.
2.3 Policies. The FBI and BCA have laws and policies on access, use, audit,
dissemination, screening (pre-employment), security, training, and use of the
criminal
history results. These FBI and BCA policies, as amended and updated from time to
time, are incorporated into this Agreement by reference. The policies are available at
https://bcanextest.x.state.mn.us//noncrim/launchpad/index.pl. Governmental Unit has
created its own
policies to ensure that Governmental Unit’s employees and contractors comply with
all applicable requirements. Governmental Unit ensures this compliance through
appropriate enforcement.
2.4 Limitations on Access. BCA agrees that it will comply with applicable state and
federal laws when making information accessible. Governmental Unit agrees that it
will comply with applicable state and federal laws when accessing, using,
disseminating, and storing data. Each party is responsible for its own compliance
with the most current applicable state and federal laws.
2.5 Requirement to Update Information. The parties agree that if there is a change to
any of the information, whether required by law or this Agreement, the party will send
the new information to the other party in writing within 30 days of the change.
2.6 Compliance with Personnel Security Requirements. Per Minnesota Statutes
§ 299C.46, employees of a Governmental Unit who review results of background
checks will be required to take security awareness training and pass a federal,
fingerprint-based background check. Any information technology staff who support
the work of Governmental Unit and who have physical or logical access to criminal
history information will also be required to take security awareness training and pass
a federal, fingerprint-based background check and may need to sign a security
addendum certification. All required training by Governmental Unit employees will be
completed prior to reviewing or handling background checks.
3 Payment
Governmental Unit will pay the BCA for all services performed under this Agreement. For
each background check that is processed by BCA, Governmental Unit will pay the fee
identified at https://dps.mn.gov/divisions/bca/Documents/Background-check-fees.pdf.

AGENDA ITEM: Ball Field Use Agreement - ISD #917 AGENDA SECTION:
CONSENT AGENDA
PREPARED BY: Dan Schultz, Parks & Recreation Director AGENDA NO. 6.e.
ATTACHMENTS: Agreement APPROVED BY: LJM
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Motion to approve the Ball Field Use Agreement with ISD #917.
BACKGROUND
Intermediate School District (ISD) #917 owns property in Rosemount along Biscayne Avenue, just north
of 145th Street and across from the National Guard maintenance facility. The site is home to the
Alliance Education Center that includes a school, playground, small ball field, green space and parking
areas.
The Parks and Recreation Department has used ISD #917’s ball field area for the past several years to
host our evening youth t-ball program. City staff has again inquired about using the ball field for
recreational programs that would take place in the evening hours during the months of June and July.
Because the school has little or no evening activity, the site would provide space to accommodate the
program. The ball field is located just northeast of the school building.
Attached is an agreement that would allow the City to have limited access to the ball field on the ISD
#917 – Alliance Education Center property.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff is recommending the City Council approve the Ball Field Use Agreement with ISD #917

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
City Council Regular Meeting: March 4, 2025
AGENDA ITEM: Items Related to Rosecott Place Apartments
Development
AGENDA SECTION:
CONSENT AGENDA
PREPARED BY: Brian Erickson, City Engineer AGENDA NO. 6.f.
ATTACHMENTS: Subdivision Agreement, Temp Access Agreement APPROVED BY: LJM
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Motion to approve:
1. Revised Subdivision Agreement for Lot 1, Block 1 Rosecott Place Apartments
2. Access Agreement
BACKGROUND
On November 6, 2023, City Council approved subdivision agreements for both Lot 1 and Lot 2 of the
Rosecott Place Apartments plat. Since that time, construction on Lot 2 is nearly complete and Lot 1 is
planned for construction in 2025. Initially, the developer planned for the work on Lot 1 to be
performed concurrently; however, there was some additional effort that Schafer-Richardson needed to
complete before being able to begin construction.
Some minor changes to the Subdivision Agreement are needed since the original agreement was never
fully executed. Changes include a revision to the signatory, and some minor updated language within
the text of the agreement.
The planned access for all residents is from Adalyn Avenue once all construction is complete.
However, because of the delay in work on Lot 1, the residents' access would be through a construction
zone. In an effort to avoid conflicts, the developer has requested that the current temporary
construction access from Connemara Trail be allowed to remain for the new residents until early next
year. That access will then be removed, the curb will be replaced and any unneeded pavement
removed. Because of the roundabout at Connemara and Akron being constructed in 2026, that access
will need to be removed by April 30, 2026 at the latest.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the City Council approve the attached Subdivision and Temporary Access
Agreements and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to enter into those agreements.

1. Request for Plat Approval. The Developer has previously asked the City to approve the
subdivision of land and a plat of land to be known as Rosecott Place Apartments, which land
is legally described on ATTACHMENT ONE, attached hereto and hereby made a part hereof
(the “Platted Property”). In accordance with this Agreement, the Developer intends to
perform certain obligations with respect to Lot 1, Block 1 of the Platted Property (the
“Subject Property”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, except where otherwise stated the terms
and conditions of this Agreement shall apply to the Subject Property.

Rosecott Place Apartments Addition
July/2023
As of the date of this Agreement, the City has approved the Developer’s plans which satisfy
the requirements set forth in Section 2(c), (d), and (f).
3. Phased Development. The City may refuse to approve final plats of subsequent additions
of the plat if the Developer has breached this Agreement and the breach has not been
remedied. Development of subsequent phases may not proceed until Subdivision Agreements
for such phases are approved by the City and additional fees and security may be required by
the owner or developer of such phases at that time.
4. Effect of Subdivision Approval. For two (2) years from the date of this Agreement, no
amendments to the City's Comprehensive Plan, except an amendment placing the plat in the
current urban service area, or official controls shall apply to or affect the use, development
density, lot size, lot layout or dedications of the approved plat unless required by state or
federal law or agreed to in writing by the City and the Developer. Thereafter, notwithstanding
anything in this Agreement to the contrary, to the full extent permitted by state law, the City
may require compliance with any amendments to the City's Comprehensive Guide Plan,
official controls, platting or dedication requirements enacted after the date of this Agreement.
5. Development Plans. The Subject Property shall be developed in accordance with the
following plans, specifications and contract documents, original copies of which are on file
with the City Engineer. The plans and contract documents may be prepared, subject to City
approval, after entering this Agreement, but before commencement of any work on the
Subject Property. If the plans vary from the written terms of this Agreement, the written
terms shall control. The plans are:
Plan A – Plat
Plan B – Soil Erosion Control Plan and Schedule
Plan C – Drainage and Storm Water Runoff Plan
Plan D – Plans and Specifications for Public Improvements
Plan E – Grading Plan
Plan F – Street Lights – Not Applicable
Plan G – Landscape Improvements
All Improvements, including Developer Improvements and City-Installed Public
Infrastructure Improvements (if any) that lie within the public right-of-way or easements and
are improvements listed in Minnesota Statutes, Section 429.021 (hereinafter the “Public
Improvements”) will be designed by the Developer and must be approved by the City
Engineer; provided, however, that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Developer has no
obligations to construct improvements within the public right-of-way known as Adalyn
Avenue (but shall be responsible for any damage within the public right-of-way caused by the
Developer or its contractors). The Developer will prepare plans and specifications for Public
Improvements which shall be approved by the City Engineer. Such approvals shall not be
Page 42 of 148
Rosecott Place Apartments Addition
July/2023
unreasonably withheld and the City shall approve or provide Developer with necessary
revision comments within 30 calendar days of Developer submittal of Public Improvement
plans and specifications. The City will perform all construction inspection for the Public
Improvements, at the Developer’s expense. Construction inspection includes but is not
limited to inspection, documentation, and monitoring.
6. Installation by Developer. The Developer shall install or cause to be installed and pay for
the following in accordance with the approved plans for the Subject Property (the
“Developer Improvements”):
a. Surveying and staking
b. Surface improvements (paved streets, sidewalks, etc.)

inclement weather, casualty, labor strikes, material shortages, or other force majeure not within
the Developer’s reasonable control. The pavement wear course shall be completed by within
eighteen (18) months from the date of this Agreement. The Developer may, however, request
an extension of time from the City. If an extension is granted, it shall be conditioned upon
updating the security posted by the Developer to reflect cost increases and the extended
completion date.

9. [This Section Intentionally Left Blank]
10. Security for Developer Improvements. To guarantee compliance with the terms of this
Agreement, payment of the costs of all Developer Improvements, and construction of all
Developer Improvements (as noted in Paragraph 6), the Developer shall furnish the City with
a cash deposit or irrevocable letter of credit from a local bank (“Security”) in the amount of
Sixty-Eight Thousand One Hundred Fifteen Dollars ($68,115). Additional security will be
required as part of the development of Block 1, Lot 2 of the Rosecott Place Apartments
Addition. The amount of the security was calculated as follows:
Page 43 of 148
Rosecott Place Apartments Addition
July/2023
Refer to Exhibit A for an explanation of each item.
The bank and form of the letter of credit or other security shall be subject to the approval of
the City Administrator. The letter of credit shall be automatically renewable until the City
releases the developer from responsibility. The letter of credit shall secure compliance with
all terms of this Agreement and all obligations of the Developer under it. The City may draw
down on the letter of credit without notice if the obligations of the Developer have not been
completed as required by this Agreement. In the event of a default under this Subdivision
Agreement by the Developer, the City shall furnish the Developer with written notice by
certified mail of Developers default(s) under the terms of this Subdivision Agreement. If the
Developer does not commence curing said default(s) and is diligently proceeding to cure said
default(s) within two (2) weeks of receiving notice (with the exception of emergency
situations), the City may draw on the letter of credit and take such steps as it deems necessary
to remedy the default. With City approval (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld),
the letter of credit may be reduced from time to time as financial obligations are paid and
Developer Improvements and other Developer obligations are completed to the City’s
requirements. In addition, with City approval (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld),
in the event the Security is in the form of an letter of credit, prior to the full release of the
Security, the Developer may replace said letter of credit with a cash escrow or a combination
of a cash escrow and a letter of credit in an amount equal to the then-current Security.
11. Grading Plan/Site Grading. Site grading shall be completed by the Developer at its cost
and approved by the City Engineer. The completion of grading activities will need to be
coordinated by the City in conjunction with the installation of utilities. Developer shall furnish
the City Engineer satisfactory proof of payment for the site grading work and shall submit a
certificate of survey of the development to the City as the site grading is completed by phase,
with street and lot grades. If the installation of utilities by the City is occurring simultaneously
with the grading, the utility contractor shall have preference over the grading activities. No
substantial grading activities can be completed over installed utilities unless otherwise
protected. All improvements to the lots and the final grading shall comply with the grading
plan as submitted and shall be the responsibility of the Developer.
12. License. The Developer hereby grants the City, its agents, employees, officers and
contractors a license to enter the Subject Property to perform all work and inspections deemed
appropriate by the City. Such license shall terminate as to all lots within the Subject Property

upon acceptance by the City of the Public Improvements. Notwithstanding the foregoing the
City retains all authority to perform inspections authorized or required by law.
13. Erosion Control. Prior to site grading, and before any utility construction is commenced or
building permits are issued, the erosion control plan, Plan B, shall be implemented, inspected
and approved by the City. All areas disturbed by the excavation and backfilling operations
shall be reseeded within 72 hours after the completion of the work in that area. Except as
otherwise provided in the erosion control plan, seed shall be rye grass or other fast-growing
seed suitable to the existing soil to provide a temporary ground cover as rapidly as possible.
All seeded areas shall be mulched and disc-anchored as necessary for seed retention.
All basement and/or foundation excavation spoil piles shall be kept completely off City right-
of-way and shall be surrounded completely with an approved erosion control silt fence.
Approved erosion control fencing shall be installed around the perimeter of each lot or at
City-approved locations at the time of building permit issuance and remain in place until the
lot is seeded or sodded. A 20-foot opening will be allowed on each lot for construction
deliveries.
The parties recognize that time is critical in controlling erosion. If development does not
comply with the erosion control plan and schedule, or supplementary instructions received
from the City, the City may take such action as it deems appropriate to control erosion. This
right also applies to the required erosion control for basement and/or foundation excavation
spoil piles. The City will attempt to notify the Developer in advance of any proposed action,
but failure of the City to do so will not affect the Developer’s or City’s rights or obligations
hereunder. If the Developer does not reimburse the City for any cost the City incurred for
such work within thirty (30) days, the City may draw down the letter of credit to pay any costs.
No development will be allowed, and no building permits will be issued unless the Subject
Property is in full compliance with the erosion control requirements.
14. Planting and Seeding. Landscaping shall be in accordance with Landscape Plans approved
by the City Planner.
15. Clean up. The Developer shall clean streets of dirt and debris that has resulted from
construction work by the Developer, its agents or assignees. The City will inspect the site on
a weekly basis and determine whether it is necessary to take additional measures to clean dirt
and debris from the streets. Costs for City inspection of onsite erosion and sediment control
shall be at the Developer’s expense. After a 24-hour verbal or written notice to the Developer,
the City will complete or contract to complete the clean-up at the Developer’s expense in
accordance with the procedures specified in Paragraph 13. The Developer shall inspect and,
if necessary, clean all catch basins, sumps, and ponding areas of erosion/siltation and restore
to the original condition at the end of construction within this development. All silt fence and
other erosion control should be removed following the establishment of turf. These items are
to be secured through the letter of credit as is noted in Exhibit A.
16. Ownership of Improvements. Upon completion and City acceptance of the work and
construction required by this Agreement, the Public Improvements lying within public rights-
of-way and easements shall become City property without further notice or action unless the
improvements are specifically identified herein as private infrastructure, and at such time the

TEMPORARY ACCESS AGREEMENT
This Temporary Access Agreement is made this _____ day of ____________, 2025, by
and between the City of Rosemount, Minnesota, a Minnesota municipal corporation (“City”), and
Adalyn Avenue, LLLP, a Minnesota limited liability limited partnership (“Developer”).
Recitals
A. The City and the Developer are parties to a Subdivision Agreement whereby the Developer
is obligated to construct certain public and private improvements in connection with the
development of the property located at 14203 Adalyn Avenue, PID 34-64520-01-020 (the
“Subdivision Agreement”) legally described as:
Lot 2, Block 1, ROSECOTT PLACE APARTMENTS
(“Subject Property”); and
B. The City is in negotiations for a separate Subdivision Agreement related to the
development of the property adjacent to the Subject Property located at 14215 Adalyn Avenue,
PID 34-64520-01-010, legally described as:
Lot 1, Block 1, ROSECOTT PLACE APARTMENTS
(“Adjacent Property”); and
C. Construction of the apartment units on the Subject Property is nearly complete; and
D. Building and fire codes require two accesses to the Subject Property and the Adjacent
Property, which will be located off of Adalyn Avenue on the eastern side of the Adjacent Property.
However, during construction on the Adjacent Property, the Developer will be unable to provide
adequate access to the Subject Property and is requesting a temporary access to the Subject
Property via Connemara Trail so that rental of the apartments on the Subject Property may begin;
and
E. The City has agreed to approve the Developer’s request to allow temporary access to the
Property from Connemara Trail contingent upon the following terms and conditions.
Page 61 of 148
2
Terms and Conditions
1. Temporary Public Access. The Developer and City agree to a temporary access to the
Subject Property off Connemara Trail so the Developer may begin renting the apartments on the
Subject Property. The temporary access is depicted on Attachment 1.
2. Improvements are Temporary; Term. The Developer agrees, as a condition to this
Agreement and receipt of city approvals, that the access to Connemara Trail is temporary and must
be completely removed by April 30, 2026, at Developer’s sole cost. Developer must restore the
original curb, sidewalk, boulevard, and patch pavement disturbed by the temporary access at
Developer’s sole cost. The Developer further understands that the temporary bituminous curbing
and pavement will not be allowed by the City to be reclaimed and reused for any public
improvements required by the Subdivision Agreement for the subdivision.
3. Certificates of Occupancy. Notwithstanding that this Agreement allows for temporary
access so Developer may commence rental of units on the Subject Property, no such rentals are
permitted until the City issues appropriate Certificates of Occupancy.
4. Developer Responsibility for Restoration Work. The Developer is responsible for the
coordination, liability, and costs to ensure: 1) access to the temporary access area depicted in
Attachment 1 is restricted during the curing periods following the placement of any permanent
concrete and bituminous improvements, including any new concrete curbing, sidewalks, and
pavement; 2) that any and all restoration work required under Paragraph 2, above, is completed by
the end of the Term of this Agreement, no later than April 30, 2026. The Developer agrees to
coordinate with the City for the restoration work described in Paragraph 2, above, including review
and approval of Developer’s restoration plans by City staff and the City Engineer.
6. Indemnification. The Developer agrees to indemnify, hold harmless, and defend the City
and its officials, employees, agents, and contractors from and against any and all claims, actions,
damages, liability, and expenses in connection with personal injury or property damage arising
from or out of the construction and use of the temporary access permitted by this Agreement except
to the extent caused by the gross negligence, or any willful or wanton misconduct by the City, its
officials, employees, agents, or contractors.
7. Insurance. The Developer shall ensure that all work performed pursuant to this Agreement
is covered by the insurance policy required by the Subdivision Agreement, or alternatively, the
Developer may obtain a separate commercial general liability insurance policy for the work
performed under this Agreement, provided that it has liability limits of at least $1,000,000 and
includes the City as an additional insured. The Developer shall furnish the City with proof of
insurance upon request.
8. Amendments. This Agreement may be modified only through written amendments signed
by both parties.
9. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in any number of
counterparts, all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument.

10. Choice of Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with
the laws of the state of Minnesota. Any disputes, controversies, or claims arising out of this
Agreement shall be heard in the state or federal courts of Minnesota, and all parties to this
Agreement waive any objection to the jurisdiction of these courts, whether based on convenience
or otherwise.
IN WITNESS OF THE FOREGOING, the parties have executed this Agreement as of the
date first written above.

Dakota limited liability company (the “Developer”).
1. Request for Plat Approval. The Developer has asked the City to approve the subdivision of land
and a plat of land to be known as Amber Fields 6th Addition, which land is legally described on
ATTACHMENT ONE, attached hereto and hereby made a part hereof (hereinafter referred to as the
“Subject Property”).
2. Conditions of Plat Approval. The City has approved the subdivision and the plat on the following
conditions:
a. Execution of a Subdivision Agreement.
b. Incorporation of recommendations of the City Engineer concerning design and installation of
public infrastructure and including grading, erosion control, streets and utilities.
c. Payment of all applicable fees including GIS and other fees identified in the current fee
schedule.
d. Incorporation of any easements necessary to accommodate drainage, ponding, trails,
underpasses, conservation areas, streets and utilities.
e. Provision of $58,740 for landscaping surety.
f. Park Dedication requirements were fulfilled as part of the Amber Fields Subdivision

3. Phased Development. The City may refuse to approve final plats of subsequent additions of the plat

remedied. Development of each subsequent phase may not proceed until a subdivision agreement for
such phase is approved by the City.
4. Effect of Subdivision Approval. For seven (7) years from the date of this Agreement, no

the current urban service area, or official controls shall apply to or affect the use, development density,
lot size, lot layout or dedications of the approved plat unless required by state or federal law or agreed
to in writing by the City and the Developer. Thereafter, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement
to the contrary, to the full extent permitted by state law, the City may require compliance with any
amendments to the City’s Comprehensive Plan, official controls, platting or dedication requi rements
enacted after the date of this Agreement.
5. Development Plans. The Subject Property shall be developed in accordance with the following plans,

reasonable and timely fashion.
11. Grading Plan/Site Grading. Site grading shall be completed by the Developer at its cost and
approved by the City Engineer. The completion of grading activities will need to be coordinated by
the City in conjunction with the installation of utilities. Developer shall furnish the City Engineer
satisfactory proof of payment for the site grading work and shall submit a certificate of survey of the
development to the City as the site grading is completed by phase, with street and lot grades. If any
installation of utilities is occurring simultaneously with the grading, the utility contractor shall have
preference over the grading activities. No substantial grading activities can be completed over installed
utilities unless otherwise protected. All final grading of the lot shall comply with the Grading Plans
(Plan D).
12. License. The Developer hereby grants the City, its agents, employees, officers and contractors a
license to enter the Subject Property to perform all work and inspections deemed appropriate by the

completion of the work in that area. Except as otherwise provided in the erosion control plan, seed
shall be rye grass or other fast-growing seed suitable to the existing soil to provide a temporary ground
cover as rapidly as possible. All seeded areas shall be mulched and disc-anchored as necessary for seed
retention.
The parties recognize that time is critical in controlling erosion. If development does not comply with
Plan A, or supplementary instructions received from the City the City may take such action as it deems
appropriate to control erosion following the notice and passing of Developers cure rights in Section
10. This right also applies to the required erosion control for basement and/or foundation excavation
spoil piles. The City will attempt to notify the Developer in advance of any proposed action, but failure
of the City to do so will not affect the Developer’s or City’s right or obligations hereunder. If the
Developer does not reimburse the City for any cost the City incurred for such work within thirty (30)
business days after receipt of an invoice for the work, the City may draw down the letter of credit to
pay such costs. No development will be allowed, and no building permits will be issued unless the
Subject Property is in full compliance with the erosion control requirements.
Costs for City inspection of onsite erosion shall be at the Developer’s expense.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the City agrees that the Developer shall have no continuing liability
with respect to the Subject Property as of the date that the Developer transfers each such portion of
the Subject Property to a builder. Developer shall follow MPCA required protocol for transfer of
Stormwater Construction Permit responsibility to the new owner of each lot. The Developer is
required to show proof of this assignment to the City. Until such time that the transfer of permit
responsibility is presented to the City, the City will consider the Developer to remain responsible for
required erosion and sediment control.

twenty-four (24) hour verbal or written notice to the Developer, the City will complete or contract to
complete the clean-up at the Developer’s expense. If the Developer does not reimburse the City for
any cost the City incurred for such work within thirty (30) business days after receipt of an invoice for
the work, the City may draw down the letter of credit to pay such costs. The Developer shall inspect
and, if necessary, clean all catch basins, sumps, and ponding areas of erosion/siltation and restore to
the original condition at the end of the home construction or completion of Developer’s
Improvements within each phase of this development. All silt fence and other erosion control should
be removed following the establishment of turf. These items are to be secured through the letter of
credit as is noted in Exhibit A.

RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Motion to adopt an Ordinance amending Ordinance B City of Rosemount Zoning Ordinance to change
the zoning of the site from A-2 – Agricultural to R-2 – Low to Medium Density Residential
Motion to adopt a resolution approving the Preliminary Plat for Akron Ridge, subject to conditions.
BACKGROUND
Owner: John and Joyce Remkus
Applicant: Magellan Land Development
Preliminary Plat Acres: 10 Acres
Residential Lots Created: 58 Townhome Lots
Gross Density: 6 Units/Acre
Comprehensive Plan Guiding:L LDR – Low Density Residential
Current Zoning: A-2 – Agricultural
Proposed Zoning: R-2 – Low to Medium Density Residential
The City Council is being asked to consider requests by Magellan Land Development for rezoning and
preliminary plat approval to develop 58 townhome units on a 10-acre property east of Akron Avenue
and north of Bonaire Path that will be called Akron Ridge. The property is currently zoned A-2 –
Agricultural, and the applicant is requesting that the site be rezoned to R-2 – Low to Medium Density
Residential to accommodate the townhome development. The site is shown to have a total of 12
townhome buildings, with 5 of the buildings containing 6 units per building, and the remaining 7
buildings will contain 4 units per building. At this time, only a preliminary plat is being requested with
Page 92 of 148
the applicant planning on submitting a Final Plat for the project at a later date. Staff and the Planning
Commission are recommending approval of the rezoning and preliminary plat requests, subject to the
conditions listed in the attached resolution.
PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION
The Planning Commission held a public hearing at their January 28, 2025, meeting to review the
requests for rezoning and preliminary plat approval to develop 58 townhome units on a 10-acre parcel
currently addressed as 13040 Akron Avenue. Staff presented the requests to the Commission where
they inquired about the area around the site, future development in the area and transportation
impacts. The Commission also asked about the future land use of the site being guided as Low Density
Residential. Staff clarified that the site is guided Low Density Residential, and that both the R-1 – Low
Density Traditional Residential zoning district and R-2 – Low to Medium Density Residential zoning
district are allowed zoning districts under the Low-Density Residential land use designation per the
City's Comprehensive Plan.
During the public hearing portion of the item, the applicant came forward to answer questions the
Commission had. The applicant also explained that the housing product that is being proposed for the
site will be for-sale townhomes that are designed to look like single-family homes and are similar in
height to single-family homes. There were two residents that spoke during the public hearing portion
that voiced concerns regarding pedestrian and traffic safety, as well as potential privacy concerns.
After additional discussion among the Commission, it was approved 6-1 to continue the item until the
February 25, 2025, Planning Commission meeting to give the applicant additional time to explore the
pedestrian safety concerns.
The applicant reached out to both Dakota County and Flint Hills Resources with regard to pedestrian
safety options. Flint Hills explained in their correspondence to the applicant that they would need to
conduct significant additional research before allowing a pedestrian path along their land east of the
subject site. They explained that the area where a potential trail could go would be located over a
pipeline and further investigation and discussion would need to be done to determine the feasibility.
Dakota County stated in their correspondence that the County does not have any current projects
programmed in their 5-year Capital Improvement Program (CIP) to add a trail along the east side of
CSAH 73 (Akron Avenue) in front of the parcel where the proposed project is located. The trail gap
along the east side of Akron Avenue is identified in the County’s 2040 Transportation Plan to be
completed with a future road realignment. The future road realignment will occur just north of the
subject property. There were also discussions with the County regarding a potential crosswalk across
Akron Avenue that would give access to the trail on the west side of the road. The County stated that
they had not considered a crosswalk in this area of Akron Avenue and that there would need to be
additional research and analysis done before a decision could be made. Both correspondences from
Flint Hills Resources and Dakota County have been included as attachments in the agenda packet.
At the February 25, 2025, Planning Commission Meeting this item was on the agenda. A public hearing
was not held for this item as the public hearing portion was closed at the previous Planning
Commission meeting, but the Chair did allow for additional public comment on the item.
Staff presented the requests and additional pedestrian safety information that was submitted by the
Page 93 of 148
applicant to the Commission. The Commission had various questions for the City’s Parks and
Recreation Director who was present at the meeting. Some of the questions were regarding the
trails/pedestrian access along Akron Avenue. Director Schultz explained that with Akron Avenue being
a collector road that the plan is to have pedestrian trails along both sides of the road. Though there is
currently a trail along the west side of Akron Avenue, the plan is to also have a trail on the east side of
the road as development occurs. In the short term, there is an 8-foot-wide painted curb line on both
sides of Akron Avenue in this part of the city, which gives ample space for people to maneuver within
the shoulder of the road. He also explained that this is not the first development in town where there
has not been a direct pedestrian connection made at the time of development. Though Dakota County
doesn’t have it in their CIP, the city will continue to work with them on safe crossing options in the
area.
The Commission asked the applicant if they would consider incorporating language into the HOA
declaration that the property to the south is private property and trespassing would not be allowed.
The applicant stated that is something they could incorporate into their regulations. The Commission
also wanted clarification on traffic and infrastructure-related concerns that residents had brought up.
Staff explained that Dakota County reviews all plats that are adjacent to County Roads and the County
had no concerns about the additional traffic volumes that this project would produce. Staff also stated
that there is existing utility infrastructure located within Akron Avenue, and this development will be
able to utilize that infrastructure.
The Commission collectively agreed to recommend a condition of approval with the Preliminary Plat
that outlines that the Homeowners Association (HOA) covenants include acknowledgment that the
property to the south is privately owned, and that trespassing would not be allowed. The Planning
Commission voted unanimously to recommend approval of the proposed project.
BACKGROUND
The subject property is located at 13040 Akron Avenue which is located directly east of Akron Avenue
and approximately a ½ mile north of Bonaire Path. The 10-acre property is zoned A-2 – Agricultural and
it contains a single-family home built in 1989. The land directly north and east of the site is owned by
Flint Hills Resources and is also zoned A-2. There are currently no plans for development on land
located adjacent to this property that is owned by Flint Hills Resources. The land directly west across
Akron Avenue contains the Caramore Crossing development which contains traditional detached
single-family homes. The land directly south of the subject site is zoned A-2 – Agricultural and contains
a single-family home.
The proposed development area is guided for LDR – Low Density Residential, which is outlined in the
City’s 2040 Comprehensive Plan land use map. Low Density Residential housing types allows for
detached single-family homes, duplexes, twin homes, and townhomes. This subject parcel and the
parcel to the south are shown in the Land Use Plan to be one of the last areas in this portion of the city
for additional residential growth.
ISSUE ANAYLSIS
Legal Authority
Preliminary plat applications are quasi-judicial decisions for the City Council, meaning that the Council
is acting as judge to determine if the regulations within the Comprehensive Plan, Zoning Ordinance and
Page 94 of 148
Subdivision Ordinance are being followed. Generally, if these applications meet the City’s established
requirements, they must be approved.
Rezonings are a legislative decision for the city, but the rezoning must conform with the adopted
Comprehensive Plan to be approved. Therefore, while technically legislative in nature, if a rezoning is
in line with the Comprehensive Plan, it should be approved. Staff's review of each application is
provided below.
General Subdivision Design
The preliminary plat area is located directly east of Akron Avenue and approximately ½ mile north of
Bonaire Path and north of the Flint Hills Recreation Complex. The site is shown to be accessed by a
single public street that extends east and then south off of Akron Avenue. A private road extends east
off a portion of the public street to access the proposed townhomes. There are also three private
drives that extend south off of the main private road which will give access to a portion of the
townhome units. There are guest parking stalls shown throughout the site, specifically on the southern
portion of the main private road. There are two stormwater management areas shown on site, one
located on the western side of the site east of Akron Avenue and adjacent to the public street. The
other ponding area is shown to be on the most eastern side of the site adjacent to the eastern
property line and east of the main private drive cul-de-sac. There are 58 townhome units proposed
throughout the development area which are shown to be mixed throughout 4-unit and 6-unit
townhome buildings.
Rezoning and Land Use
The site is designated for LDR – Low Density Residential land uses, which typically consists of single-
family housing or townhomes with few units per building. The LDR land use designation allows for
housing density for up to 6 units per acre. The subject property is currently zoned A-2 – Agricultural,
which allows for 1 unit per 40 acres. The applicant is requesting the site be rezoned to R-2 – Low to
Medium Density Residential to accommodate the 6 units per acre that is proposed throughout the
development. The R-2 zoning district is an allowed secondary zoning district under the LDR – Low
Density Residential land use category. The city has most recently seen developments such as Autumn
Terrace and Ardan Place be rezoned to an R-2 zoning to accommodate the density of twin home and
townhome units. The land north, east and south of the site are currently zoned A-2 – Agricultural and
land west of the site is zoned R-1 – Low Density Residential. The land north and east of the site are
owned by Flint Hill Resources and development is not yet planned for those areas. The land to the
south is similar in nature to the subject site as it has a land use designation of LDR – Low Density
Residential. The area to the west contains the Caramore Crossing development which contains
detached single-family homes. The city is supportive of this site being rezoned to R-2 – Low to Medium
Density Residential as it meets the density requirements laid out in the land use designation of the
site.
Phasing
The applicant has provided a phasing schedule that shows development initially occurring on the
eastern portion of the site, the most western portion of the site, and the northern portion of the site.
The public access road off of Akron Avenue, the main private road, both stormwater ponding areas and
30 townhome units will be a part of the first phase of development. The second phase will consist of
the remaining 28 townhome units on the southern end of the site and as well as three of the private
Page 95 of 148
drive areas.
Streets and Parking
There is one access road shown into the preliminary plat area extending east off of Akron Avenue. This
access road is shown to be a public road and extends south up to the southern property line. There is a
private road that extends east off of the public street and gives access to the townhomes throughout
the site. The private road ends in a cul-de-sac in the eastern portion of the property adjacent to the
future storm water ponding area. There are three private drive segments that extend south off of the
main private drive road that gives access to the southern townhome units. The public street will be
maintained by the developer until development occurs to the south, which then will transition to a
publicly maintained road.
On the site plan, there is a total of 29 guest parking stalls provided throughout the site. A majority of
the guest parking is shown along the southern main private road that extends east off of Akron
Avenue. Each townhome is shown to have two enclosed spaces per unit as well. The number of
enclosed units and visitor parking stalls meet the minimum requirement outlined within the zoning
code. Also shown throughout the site are 5-foot sidewalks along the southern portion of the main
private road and along the southeastern portion of the public road off of Akron Avenue. The portion of
the sidewalk along the public road is shown to end at the southern boundary of the property, but when
development occurs to the south, that will be extended with the road.
The city and applicant met with the Dakota County Plat Commission at their January 15, 2025, meeting
to discuss the proposed preliminary plat. The Plat Commission approved the preliminary and final plat
for the site provided that the conditions outlined in the memorandum that was put together by the
County be met. One of those conditions is that a short right-turn lane will need to be installed with
access to the site on Akron Avenue.
Parks And Open Space
The Parks and Recreation staff has reviewed the plans for the proposed Akron Ridge development and
has provided review comments in the attached memorandum. The Parks and Recreation department is
recommending that an 8-foot-wide trail be benched in on the west side of the development along
Akron Avenue. Staff is also recommending that the developer provide the city with a payment to cover
the cost of installing the trail.
Due to the City not looking to acquire parkland in this development area, the park dedication for Akron
Ridge would be cash-in-lieu. The cash dedication for 58 townhome units is $165,300 (58 units x
$2,850).
Preservation and Landscaping
A tree inventory was conducted on the 10-acre subject site and a total of 1,443 significant tree inches
were identified throughout the property. A total of 1,409 caliper inches will need to be removed from
the site to allow for development, which means a total of 524 caliper inches of trees will be required to
be replaced on site following the formula laid out in the zoning code. In the submitted landscape plan
it shows that the required 524 caliper inches of trees will be met.
The landscape plan shows that a total of 226 trees will be planted throughout the preliminary plat
Page 96 of 148
area. The zoning code states that multi-family residential sites that contain buildings that are one (1) or
two (2) stories shall provide a minimum of eight (8) overstory or coniferous trees plus one (1) tree per
unit. There are 58 townhome units proposed for this development, so a total of 66 trees is required for
that standard. The landscape plan shows to meet that minimum requirement. Trees are shown to be
located throughout the site within the open areas, along the public street and private streets, and
along the northern, western, and southern property boundaries. Due to the location of transmission
easements on the eastern end of the site, trees are unable to be planted in that area. A landscape
surety in the amount of $74,580 (226 trees x $300 plus 10%) is required as a condition of approval.
Engineering Review
The City’s engineer has provided a memorandum containing comments related to the plans provided.
The memorandum included comments related to utilities, grading, general storm sewer design and
stormwater management. A copy of the memorandum is included in the attachments.
RECOMMENDATION
The Planning Commission and staff are recommending approval of the rezoning and preliminary plat
requests to develop 58 townhome units on the 10-acre subject property based on the information
provided by the applicant and reviewed in this report.

Stormwater Management
Grading, Drainage, and Erosion Control Comments:
1. General
a. A NPDES permit will be required since over an acre of disturbance is proposed.
Remains an open comment.
b. Soil infiltration testing is recommended to determine design infiltration rates.
Rates of up to 3 in/hr will be considered by the City Engineer.
Applicant continuing use of 0.8 in/hr per SP-SM soils data.
c. Provide a vegetation restoration/landscaping plan.
Remains an open comment.
2. Ponds and Wetlands
a. The pretreatment cell for the proposed BMP must include a clay liner to ensure it
does not drain between rain events.
Infiltration basin cross section shown, should include dead storage and call out
liner.
3. Emergency Overflow Routes:
a. No comments.
4. Retaining Walls:
a. Retaining walls exceeding 4’ in height shall require a plan prepared by a licensed
engineer submitted for review and approval by the Building Official prior to permit
issuance.
Retaining wall changed to <4’ in height.
5. Erosion Control:
a. Biorolls must surround the entire BMP surface, extend them around the whole
930 contour.
b. Riprap must be specified to the bottom of the pretreatment cell in plan view.
Remains an open comment.
6. Grading:
a. The maximum allowable slope above the pond NWL is 4:1, the 3:1 slopes graded
above 936 must be revised.
These slopes are corrected on the grading plan, but must be corrected in cross-
section detail.
Page 131 of 148
Akron Ridge – Preliminary Plat/Site Plan Review
January 10, 2025
Page 4
Stormwater Management Plan:
1. General Storm Sewer Design
a. Provide a profile view of storm sewer, including callouts for any potential utility
conflicts.
• The minimum vertical separation between utilities is 18” and insulation is
needed for any crossings of storm sewer and watermain within 36”.
Remains an open comment.
b. The pipes from FES-34 to CB-33 and CB-21 to FES-B must be revised to provide
sufficient flow capacity.
c. It is preferred that roof drains flow over pervious surface prior to capture in storm
sewer. Provide reasoning for or revise roof drainage for units 19-36 north of
Private Rd E.
Response requested.
d. Crown matching is recommended where pipes increase in diameter.
Remains an open comment.
e. Catchbasin inlets must not exceed 3 cfs of inflows for the 10-year storm event.
Flows to each CB must be included in the capacity calculations.
f. Flows through intersections should be reduced to the maximum extent practical,
catchbasins should be shifted upgradient of intersections to capture flows.
g. City standard practice is to have a drop inlet instead of a flared end section at
FES-34.
• All yard inlets should be reduced as much as feasible.
Remains an open comment. This also extends to FES-F and FES-I
h. Storm sewer outfalls must route to a pretreatment cell, it is recommended to
route CBMH-13 to CBMH-32 to consolidate storm sewer and route to the
pretreatment cell.
Remains an open comment.
i. The BMP must have a City standard OCS, including a weir wall set to at least the
100-yr HWL elevation and sluice gate to open for emergency operation. See
attached detail.
j. Permission is needed from Dakota County to outlet western BMP into the
existing CBMH.
k. Ensure weir wall is constructable with only 0.15’ of elevation difference to the
OCS grate.
2. Water Quantity
a. Required modeling events are the 2-, 10, and 100-year 24-hour events and the
10-day snowmelt event of 7.2 inches. The 1-year event is not required to be
modeled.
Remains an open comment.
b. HydroCAD runoff modeling must be set to “Calculate separate
Pervious/Impervious runoff (SBUH weighting)” rather than Weighted-CN.
Remains an open comment.
c. HydroCAD drainage areas must match between models, there is a 0.38 acre
decrease from existing to proposed conditions.
3. Rate/Volume Control
a. BMP outflows are not allowable for any rainfall events besides the 10-day
snowmelt. This should be achieved with the City standard OCS referenced
above.
Page 132 of 148
Akron Ridge – Preliminary Plat/Site Plan Review
January 10, 2025
Page 5
4. Freeboard
a. Please confirm that proposed buildings are slab on grade. If basements are
proposed, the low floor must be 1’ above the BMP EOF and HWL.
Response requested.
5. Water Quality
a. Infiltration calculations must be provided based on City requirements of basin
area (not counting basin side slopes) sized to 1/12 ac-ft/ac/day for the entire site
area. The following formula can be used to determine this area:
𝑅𝑐𝑞𝑞�ℎ𝑞𝑐𝑐 𝐴𝑞𝑐𝑎 (𝑎𝑐)=𝑅�ℎ𝑞𝑐 𝐴𝑞𝑐𝑎 (𝑎𝑐)
𝐼𝑛𝑐�ℎ𝑙𝑞𝑞𝑎𝑞�ℎ𝑛𝑛 𝑅𝑎𝑞𝑐 (�ℎ𝑛�𝑞⁄)
∗0.0416 (𝑐𝑛𝑛𝑞𝑐𝑞𝑞�ℎ𝑛𝑛 𝑐𝑎𝑐𝑞𝑛𝑞)
• The current infiltration surface appears to be undersized for the ~19 ac
tributary area.
Applying the above formula for the 9.62 site acres and 0.8 in/hr infiltration rate
results in a required infiltration area of 0.50 acres. The proposed infiltration area
of 0.36 acres (excludes side slopes and dead pool surface area) is not large
enough.
b. The pretreatment cell within the BMP must be designed according to NURP
standards. This includes a 10’ safety bench and dead storage volume of at least
the 2.5” storm event runoff volume.
6. Easements
a. The proposed BMP must be fully contained in a drainage and utility easement.
Extend D&U easement to cover entire east BMP up to HWL.
General
Infrastructure design shall be completed in accordance with the City of Rosemount’s Engineering
Guidelines and Standards. Infrastructure construction shall be completed in accordance with the
latest edition of the City’s General Specifications and Standard Detail Plates for Street and Utility
Construction.

Subject: Akron Ridge Development
The Parks and Recreation Department recently reviewed the plans for the Akron Ridge
Development and has the following comments:
Local Trails and Sidewalks
The sidewalk amenities appear to be designed in a manner that works toward the City’s goal of
having a well-connected community. Staff does recommend that an 8-foot-wide trail be benched in
on the west side of development along Akron Avenue. The developer will also provide the City with
a payment to cover the cost of installing the trail. The amount that is paid will be agreed upon by
City staff and the developer.
Parks Dedication
Because the City is not looking to acquire parkland in this development, the parks dedication for this
development would be cash in-lieu of land. The cash dedication for 58 medium density units @
$2,850 per units would be $165,300.
The Parks and Recreation Commission will review the preliminary plat on Monday, January 27.
Please let know if you have any questions about this memo.

Subject: CSAH 73 (Akron Ave) - East Trail
To: Jason Palmby <jason@palmby.com>
Afternoon Jason,
Per request, I am following our phone discussion regarding the Akron Ridge proposed
development on CSAH 73 (Akron) in Rosemount. The County does not have any current
projects programmed in our 5-year Capital Improvement Program (CIP) to add a trail along
the east side of CSAH 73 in front of the parcel the Akron Ridge is proposing to develop. The
trail gap along the east side of CSAH 73 in relation to your parcel is identified in our 2040
Transportation Plan to be completed with a future road realignment that was adopted with the
Pine Bend Arterial Connector Study (2016). The future road realignment occurs just north of
the property in question.
Thanks,
Jake

Jason,
Thank you for contacting Flint Hills Resources. We have reviewed your request for a bike path
on Flint Hills Resources property to help connect with the community park. At this time, we
need to conduct significant additional research. The area you inquired about is over a pipeline,
which necessitates further investigation and discussions with our Pipeline department to
determine feasibility. If your development wishes to explore this matter further, please let me
know.
Thank you,

Subject:Townhome development across from the Meadow Ridge neighborhood
Date:Monday, February 24, 2025 3:25:04 PM
Hello,
I’m emailing to voice my concerns about the proposed townhome development across from the Meadow Ridge
neighborhood.
For many reasons I am against this development. A few being unclear or lack of planned infrastructure, public
safety, resource strain, potential tax increases on single family home owners, and the loss of community character
this side of town is already experiencing with the plethora of multi-family developments already underway.
Further, it is our understanding the neighbor (SFH) directly to the south is opposed to this development as they are
already experiencing increased instances of trespassing due to the activity at the Flint Hills Athletic Complex, and
despite their best attempts, the city has not worked to address their concerns. This development may exacerbate
these issues for this neighbor.
While it might not have been intentional, this development has caught many of us by surprise, and we are requesting
additional time for public input with the developer, planning commission, and council. I am hopeful the planning
commission will not recommend rezoning for a multi-family development, and if they should, that the city council
will consider the unresolved issues and potential negative outcomes as a result of this rezoning and send it back to
the planning commission for reconsideration that would seed additional public input to the project.
Thank you,

Hello Mayor and Councilmembers,
My family and I live at 12915 Ardroe Ave, and I have a few concerns with the Akron Ridge townhome
development.
First, we received the notice for the developer’s meeting the day before the meeting, and some of our neighbors did
not receive the letter until after the meeting had occurred. I was disappointed to have to miss the meeting for work
obligations and I was also disappointed to hear the developer present the lack of attendance as support for the
project. The lack of attendance was directly related to the late notice and the large number of our neighbors that
have jobs and kids.
Second, and most importantly, this project is a major safety issue for those of us that live and drive on Akron
Avenue. The speed limit is 50 and people often exceed that. Putting 58 homes walking distance from a park, a trail,
and an elementary school- without requiring any kind of sidewalk, crossing, or pedestrian improvements is reckless
and unsafe. We know that the residents of those new homes will want to use the trails and parks and will cross
Akron or walk on Akron to get to these amenities. I do not want to see my neighbors killed or injured on this road
because of lack of safe pedestrian upgrades.
It is important to me that development has a plan for pedestrians and traffic. If the developer wishes to build these
homes they should acquire right-of-way to attach their community to the existing pedestrian infrastructure. Please
do not approve this project without forcing the developer to first hold a real community meeting and acquire the
land to connect the development to the local pedestrian infrastructure.
Thank You!

Date:Tuesday, February 25, 2025 10:58:41 AM
Importance:High
Dear Members of the City Planning Commission & City Council,
I am writing to express my concerns regarding the proposal by Magellan Land Development
to re-zone the parcel of land at 13040 Akron Ave, Rosemount, MN from agriculture to
LDR/R-2, with the intent to build 58 townhomes.
Firstly, the proposed location presents significant safety concerns for our community. The
parcel is at the top of a hill with poor visibility in a 50 mph zone, posing dangers for children,
pedestrians and moving traffic. This development would unnecessarily create hazardous traffic
situations, with real life experience witnessing vehicles often exceeding 60 mph. The addition
of an R-2 development on this lot would also complicate the turn lane configuration. I
understand there is a center turn lane, but unless you live in this area and understand existing
traffic flows and habits, it could be easy to minimize the risk this development would pose.
Flows include but are not limited to: Northbound on Akron continuing to IGH, Southbound
traffic from IGH continuing into Rosemount on Akron, Northbound on Akron merging into
turn lane to turn left onto 127th just after the hill at this property, Southbound on Akron
merging into their turn lane for the proposed development (near the oncoming traffic merging
into their turn lane to turn left onto 127th), residents turning left out of proposed development
onto Akron to go Southbound crossing over the Northbound speeding traffic while also trying
to avoid the Southbound Akron traffic turning left into the complex coming in from the
opposite direction, residents turning right out of townhouses into Akron Northbound. This
development would lead to a complicated traffic flow in a fast 50 mph zone, without traffic
signals, sidewalks, crosswalks or other safety measures for vulnerable young children walking
to school or the park. Presently, this is a safe travel zone without any concerns. This
development would surely lead to serious accidents at some point and increased complaints to
the City. Further, the County has confirmed they have no existing plans through at least 2030
to build safety infrastructures at this area such as sidewalks, crosswalks, or other safety
features.
The lack of sidewalks in the area compounds these traffic safety issues and reduces
walkability for pedestrian residents. Residents of the proposed development would have to
navigate this busy avenue without sidewalks for a short stretch, a particular concern for young
children walking to the elementary school who do not qualify for bussing. This is especially
worrying for our youngest, most vulnerable population.
Moreover, contrary to a Commissioner's statement at the last meeting, children in the nearby
neighborhood do use the open fields and beautiful playground structure at Flint Hills Athletic
Complex. Children walk there from Meadow Ridge to play soccer, baseball, volleyball, and
free play. The elementary and middle school kids from a proposed townhouse development,
due to no private yards or large open spaces, would most definitely be traveling to the park
unattended, left vulnerable to oncoming traffic.
While this land may be designated for re-zoning in the city's 2040 comprehensive plan,
Page 139 of 148
approving this particular proposal is not in the best interest of the community. In addition to
the above concerns, the proposed development includes roadways, landscaping, and a decent
size drainage pond which calls into question whether the 58 townhomes meet the requirements
of R-2. Accounting for the actual acreage the units would be built on and not the entire
property acreage, it's estimated to be only 6-8 acres being built upon, therefore 58 units would
exceed the 6 units/acre threshold for R-2.
Additionally, the future comp plan for this land is slated for rezoning to a primary zoning of
regular LDR R-1. While technically R-2 qualifies it is a "limited secondary zoning" option.
With this proposal, R-2 is the only zoning the developer's plan would fit under; this is not the
preferred future zoning use. If you compare nearby townhouse developments, Ardan Place
townhomes are on a residential street 30 mph zone. The older townhomes off of Autumn Path
(near Connemara) are also on a slower speed zone residential street with sidewalks. The latest
development, Bray Hill off of Bonaire & Akron, has much better accessibility to town,
transportation, amenities, sidewalks & crosswalks. That was actually proposed to be R-1/R-2
but is being developed as R-1 SFH's (only 47 on 17 cares). That property would have been
more favorable for R-2 so one must urge you to consider that this particular proposal in
question on this lot does not make sense.
One Commissioner at the last meeting said, "I’m all for more housing." While growth is
positive, we plead—please listen to the community you serve. Not every proposal has to be a
"yes." Development decisions should focus on existing residents, and needs of future
residents, not on maximizing developer profits or saying yes because "technically" R-2 is
allowed. Please say "no" to this proposal and consider other residential development ideas for
this land in the future. For example, single-family homes (SFH's) built at a lower density
would reduce the number of residents, pedestrians, and traffic thereby reducing likelihood of
serious accidents. Private yards would likely result in residents using their own yard spaces
more often than a residents of a townhouse development that would be more likely to
frequently walk to the park on the street or through the neighbors' property. A single-family
home (SFH) development might include an HOA that maintains a fence on the property line,
addressing safety and privacy concerns for the neighboring property as well. Additionally,
statistics show that owners of SFH's are more likely to have and utilize their own
transportation compared to residents of multi-dwelling properties. This statistic would thereby
suggest that a SFH development would reduce the number of pedestrians and school children
walking. Further, those residents might seek out a more rural setting and not require access to
city amenities; this parcel location is a bit of an island.
The current infrastructure and location of the parcel does not support the proposed
development. In conclusion, approving this proposal feels like forcing a square peg into a
round hole. This area is not easily walkable, it's disconnected from amenities, it's not safe and
it does not align with the goals of the qualities of LDR neighborhoods outlined in the 2040
Comp plan. The proposed development would not be safe for future or existing residents
traveling across that area daily at high speeds. There is no immediate need to rush this
development. As a concerned resident, I ask that either the existing infrastructure be enhanced
to address the safety & privacy needs or request the developer choose an alternate plan such as
SFH's that would better align with the safety, location and zoning preferences.
Thank you for considering my concerns. I urge the City Planning Commission and/ir City
Council to vote “no” to this proposal and instead consider safer and better options of leaving
the zoning as agriculture or developing LDR R-1 SFH's only.

Good afternoon,
I am contacting you to voice my concerns about the proposed
townhome development across from the Meadow Ridge
neighborhood. For many reasons, especially the reduction in home
values and loss of green space, in addition to other significant
concerns (e.g., unknown, unclear, or lack of planned infrastructure,
public safety issues, resource strain, and loss of community
character this side of town with the many multi-family
developments already underway), I am against this
development. Further, it is my understanding the neighbor (SFH)
directly to the south is opposed to this development as they are
already experiencing increased instances of trespassing due to the
activity at the Flint Hills Athletic Complex. This development will
only exacerbate these issues for this neighborhood and my
community.
My hope is to ensure Rosemount grows as a safe, sought after
community that is thriving economically balanced with greenspace.
This development will have long term negative repercussions to our
area along with the town of Rosemount, overall.
I am requesting additional time for public input with the developer,
planning commission, and council. I am asking the city council
to consider the unresolved issues and likely negative outcomes to
send it back to the planning commission for reconsideration to seed
additional public input to the project.
Thank you,
Rich Douglas
