ITEM 8 Associate Planner Erin Seeman presented the Woodhill preliminary plat, variance for cul-de-sac street length, conditional use permit for street width and a rezoning from RH-1 to RST-2. She explained that the preliminary plat of Woodhill consists of 62 twin home units, one common area lot and three outlots on 17.96 acres of land located west of Kenyon Avenue between 179" Street and Kerrville Trail. City staff is requesting a rezoning of the property to RST-2, single and two-family residential district, consistent with the proposed twin home development. A Comprehensive Plan .Amendment will be processed in conjunction with the final plat to change the land use designation to be consistent with the rezoning. The developer is requesting a conditional use permit to allow a 28-foot wide local street within a 50-foot right-of-way, as allowed in environmentally sensitive areas, and a variance to allow a cul-de-sac . length in excess of 600 feet. The Planning Commission held a public hearing on the Woodhill preliminary plat, variance, conditional use permit and rezoning. There were no public comments at the hearing. The Planning Commission recommended approval Mayor Johnson asked if the length of the cul-de-sac would cause any snowplowing problems. Ms. Seeman stated it would not. She explained that a through street was not possible .due to the limited access opportunities adjacent to the subject property. Council Member Wulff asked whether the building floor plans for the twin home units have been modified to meet the minimum garage floor area requirement. Ms. Seeman stated revised plans have been submitted, and all stipulations of the planning report will be reviewed prior to final plat consideration. Mayor Johnson asked about the size of the twin homes. Kevin Clark of Town & Country Homes stated they would range from approximately 1,700 to 1,800 square feet with basement options. 05.07 Motion was made by Rieb, seconded by Wulff to receive the Planning Commission's findings of fact and recommendation and approve the preliminary plat of Woodhill, variance for cul-de-sac street length, CITY OF LAKEV/LLE COUNCIL MEETING FEBRUARY 7, 2005 Page 5 conditional use permit for street width and .Ordinance No. 779 rezoning property from RH-1 to RST-2. Roll call was taken on the motion. Ayes, Johnson, Wulff, Rieb, Bellows. ITEM 9 Mr. Michaud presented a proposed ordinance amending Title 10, Chapter 4 of the Lakeville City Code concerning park dedication fees. He explained that in 2003, the City Council established a base land value per acre for the purpose of establishing per dwelling unit fees for single family and multi family developments. The base land value was $50,000 per acre in 2003 and $56,250 per acre in 2004. However, the base land value has fallen behind due to rapidly increasing land values. The park dedication ordinance allows the City to require up to 10% of the property being platted or an equal amount in cash for park purposes. Mr. Michaud explained that the Parks, Recreation & Natural Resources Committee reviewed the park dedication fees for single-family and multi-family residential, commercial and industrial plats. The proposed fees were determined using fair base land values for single-family and multi-family . categories. The Parks, Recreation & Natural Resources Committee held a public hearing and recommended the City Council establish the following park dedication fees: ? Single-family dwelling units $3,665 per dwelling unit ? Multi-family dwelling units $3,200 per dwelling unit ? Commercial $5,940 per acre ? Industrial $3,520 per acre With respect to commercial/industrial property, the Committee recommended a 10% increase in the park dedication fees at this time; however, the committee indicated a desire to have the Comprehensive Parks and Open Space System Plan updated. The update will provide an estimate of park and recreational facility needs through the year 2020. Further review of the park dedication fees for commercial/industrial property would follow completion of the Parks and Open Space System Plan update. The Parks, Recreation & Natural Resources Committee also recommended reinstitution of the policy requiring a shared cost for the development of trails adjacent to new plats that abut major collector or minor arterial roadways identified in the Lakeville Comprehensive Transportation Plan. • CITY OF LAKEVILLE COUNCIL MEETING FEBRUARY 7, 2005 Page 6 Mayor Johnson asked how the new fees affect preliminary plats already approved by the City. Mr. Michaud stated the fees in place at the time of City Council approval of a concept plan or preliminary plat would apply. 05.08 Motion was made by Wulff, seconded by Bellows to adopt Ordinance No. 780 amending Title 10 of the Lakeville City Code concerning park dedication fees. Roll call was taken on the motion. Ayes, Wulff, Rieb, Bellows, Johnson.
