Plans have been submitted for a final plat of 2.87 acres on Outlot C First Park Lakeville. The property
is located south of 207 St. and East of Dodd Blvd. The site is located in the Air Lake Industrial Park.
The First Park Lakeville preliminary plat and the first phase final plat was approved by the Parks,
Recreation & Natural Resources Committee in May of 2008. At that time, the committee
recommended a cash payment to satisfy the park dedication ordinance. Review of the Parks & Open
Space System Plan indicates no park planned for this area.
(11.18) Motion made by Goodwin, seconded by Peterson to recommend City Council consider
approval of First Park Lakeville 3r Addition final plat and consider a cash contribution to satisfy the
park dedication ordinance. The industrial rate for this area is $4,558 per acre. Based on that amount,
the final plat would be required to pay $13,081.
Finally, the developer is required to follow other recommendations outlined in the Planning and
Engineering reports as they pertain to this plat. The developer is also required to follow the natural
resources requirement detailed in the Planning and Engineering reports associated with tree
preservation, grading, drainage, and erosion control and further recommendations by the Dakota
County Soil and Water Conservation District, if applicable.
