ENCLAVE AT ST. FRANCES WOODS FINAL PLAT
SEPTEMBER 2, 2014 CITY COUNCIL MEETING
Proposed Action
Staff recommends adoption of the following motion: Move to approve a resolution approving
the final plat of Enclave at St. Frances.
Passage of this motion will allow the development of 41 single family residential lots.
Overview
Enclave at St. Francis Woods, LLC representatives have submitted a final plat application and
plans for Enclave at St. Frances Woods, which proposes 41 single family lots and two outlots on
17.58 acres of land located south of 205th Street and west of Kensington Boulevard. Enclave at
St. Frances Woods proposes to re-plat seven vacant townhome lots in St. Frances Woods 8th
Addition as well as the remaining phase of 62 undeveloped townhome units from the St.
Frances Woods 7th Addition preliminary plat approved in 1999. The Enclave at St. Frances
Woods preliminary plat was approved by the City Council on April 7, 2014.
Primary Issues to Consider
Is the final plat consistent with the approved preliminary plat?
The Enclave at St. Frances Woods preliminary plat approval was conditioned upon the release of all
HOA covenants and declarations over the property to be conveyed or dedicated to the City. The lots
being re-platted with Enclave at St. Frances Woods had restrictive covenants placed on them when
the St. Frances Woods homeowners association (HOA) was originally established. The lots have
been purchased by the developer and the HOA covenants and declarations been released as
stipulated by the preliminary plat. The final plat is consistent with the approved preliminary plat.
Supporting Information
• Resolution approving the final plat
• Signed development contract and warranty deed

INTRODUCTION
ACR Financial representatives have submitted a final plat application and plans for Enclave at
St. Frances Woods, which consists of 41 single family lots and two outlots on 17.58 acres of
land located south of 205th Street and west of Kensington Boulevard (Exhibit A). The subject
property is zoned PUD, Planned Unit Development District and is guided for medium density
residential (4-7 units/acre) by the Comprehensive Land Use Plan. The Enclave at St. Frances
Woods preliminary plat was approved by the City Council on April 7, 2014. The final plat is
consistent with the approved preliminary plat.
Enclave at St. Frances Woods proposes to re-plat seven vacant townhome lots in St. Frances
Woods 8th Addition as well as the remaining phase of 62 undeveloped townhome units from
the St. Frances Woods 7th Addition preliminary plat approved in 1999. The St. Frances Woods

PLANNING ANALYSIS
Existing Conditions. The subject property was graded with the development of St. Frances
Woods 8th Addition. Wetland and tree areas exist on the west side of the site. A portion of
Kaiser Way, a local loop street serving the St. Frances Woods townhomes, is stubbed into the
north side of the site.
Density. The Enclave at St. Frances Woods final plat proposes 41 lots on 17.58 gross acres
resulting in a gross density of 2.33 dwelling units/acre. The net density, minus street right-of-
way and outlots, is 4.19 dwelling units/acre.
Lots/Blocks. The Enclave at St. Frances Woods final plat consists of 41 single family lots on
three blocks. The lot requirements of the RS-4 District are being applied to the final plat
consistent with the PUD zoning and medium density land use allowed by the Comprehensive
Plan. The RS-4 District lot requirements are as follows:
Lot Area
(Interior)
Lot Area
(Corner)
Lot Width
(Interior)
Lot Width
(Corner)
8,400 s.f. 10,200 s.f. 70 feet 85 feet
All 41 lots in the final plat meet the lot area and width requirements of the RS-4 District. In
addition, a maximum building coverage of 40% is allowed in the RS-4 District.
Outlots. The Enclave at St. Frances Woods final plat proposes two outlots as follows:
Outlot A: Stormwater management basins/wetland (5.64 acres). To be deeded to the City.
Outlot B: Wetland (0.09 acres). To be deeded to the City.
The developer will receive a $5,500/acre credit to the trunk storm sewer area charge for
deeding Outlots A and B to the City. The credit amount is $31,515 (5.73 acres x $5,500/acre).
Setbacks. The RS-4 District building setback requirements are as follows:
Front Side
(Interior)

Enclave at St. Frances Woods Final Plat
September 2, 2014 City Council Meeting
11-17-11.A.2.b of the Zoning Ordinance. A reduced rear yard setback is allowed under
Section 11-17-11.B of the Zoning Ordinance for those lots abutting Outlots A and B.
Streets. Kaiser Way is a local street that will be extended through Enclave at St. Frances
Woods forming a loop street off of Kensington Boulevard serving existing townhomes and
the proposed single family lots. A 60 foot right-of-way width and 32 foot street width is
identified for Kaiser Way in compliance with Subdivision Ordinance requirements. There are
no sidewalks along the existing segment of Kaiser Way therefore none will be required with
the extension of Kaiser Way in the Enclave at St. Frances Woods.
Kaiser Circle and Kaiser Court are cul-de-sac streets that will be constructed west of Kaiser
Way. Both cul-de-sac streets have a 50 foot right-of-way width and a 60 foot right-of-way
turnaround radius as allowed by the Subdivision Ordinance for environmentally sensitive
areas. Both cul-de-sac streets will be 28 feet wide with a 45 foot turnaround radius as allowed
by the Subdivision Ordinance. The reduced cul-de-sac right-of-way and street width is
allowed subject to the following conditions listed in Section 10-4-3.S.4.b of the Subdivision
Ordinance:
1. All lots shall meet or exceed the minimum standards for the applicable zoning district.
This requirement is met for the RS-4 District.
2. All houses shall have an attached accessory garage of three (3) stalls with
corresponding front driveway parking apron. The curb cut opening on the street shall,
however, meet established standards.
This requirement is listed as a stipulation of final plat approval.
3. The required drainage and utility easement in the front yards of lots shall be not less
than fifteen feet (15’).
A 15 foot drainage and utility easement is shown on the final plat for all of the lots with
frontage on Kaiser Circle and Kaiser Court.

The Enclave at St. Frances Woods is located within subdistrict SC-120 of the South Creek
sanitary sewer district as identified in the City’s Comprehensive Sanitary Sewer Plan.
Wastewater will be conveyed via existing public sanitary sewer to the MCES
Lakeville/Farmington Interceptor and continue to the Empire Wastewater Treatment Facility.
The existing City-owned downstream facilities have sufficient capacity to serve the proposed
subdivision.
Development of Enclave at St. Frances Woods includes public sanitary sewer construction. 8-inch
sanitary sewer and services were previously extended through the St. Frances Woods 7th and 8th
Additions along Kaiser Way for Lots 5-6, Block 1 and Lots 1-3, Block 2. 8-inch gravity sanitary
sewer is proposed throughout the local street network.
Any existing sanitary sewer services that are to be permanently abandoned, must first be
televised for evidence of inflow and infiltration. If the City’s review of the televising suggests
no inflow and infiltration, the sanitary sewer service may be abandoned in-place. If the City’s
review of the televising suggests any inflow and infiltration, the sanitary sewer service must
be plugged at the main consistent with City standards. All sanitary sewer service
abandonment/removal work must be inspected by the City’s Utility Department.

Lots 5-6, Block1 and Lots 1-3, Block 2. 8-inch watermain will be extended along Kaiser Way in
order to provide water service to the development. The City’s Comprehensive Water Plan does
not identify any trunk watermain improvements within the proposed plat.
Any existing water service that is to be permanently abandoned shall be completed
consistent with City standards. For all existing water services that are to be permanently
abandoned, a fee of $1,000/service shall be paid with the final plat to the City for future
maintenance related to the abandoned service repairs. All water service
abandonment/removal work must be inspected by the City’s Utility Department.
The proposed sanitary sewer and watermain layout is in accordance with the City’s
Comprehensive Sanitary Sewer and Water Plans. Final locations and sizes of all sanitary sewer
and watermain will be reviewed by City Staff with the final construction plans.

The final plat of Enclave at St. Frances Woods lies entirely within drainage subdistrict ML-5 of
the Lake Marion Stormwater District, as identified in the City’s Water Resources Management
Plan.
The development includes construction of public stormwater management basins to be located
in the northwest corner of the site within Outlot A. The basins will provide water quality
treatment, volume and rate control for the stormwater runoff generated from the subdivision.
The public basins will be deeded to the City with the final plat. The Developer shall provide
easements for any grading to be done outside the plat boundary necessary to accommodate the
proposed drainage systems prior to the release of mylars. Access benches for operations and

maintenance purposes are provided to the filtration and wet sedimentation ponds located in the
northwest corner of the plat boundary.
The storm sewer system to be constructed along Kaiser Way ultimately drains to an existing City
owned pond located in the southeast corner of 205th Street and Kensington Boulevard. This pond
is adjacent to Kensington Park, and shall be expanded as shown on the plans to accommodate
the additional drainage from the Enclave at St. Frances Woods development. Tree replacement
with the same or similar species will be required near the pond in Kensington Park. A $20,000
security is required with the final plat to ensure that all trees are replaced and the site is re-
stabilized in Kensington Park.
Private drain tile is proposed behind Lots 4 to 10, Block 2. This drain tile system is proposed to
capture any groundwater conveyed from Outlot B toward the proposed lots of Block 2. An
encroachment agreement is required to allow the drain tile to be located within the public
drainage and utility easements. The encroachment agreement must be signed and approved by
the City Council prior to installation of the private draintile system. The drain tile system shall be
considered privately owned, and therefore the City will not be responsible for any future
maintenance or replacement of this drain tile system.
The final grading plan must identify all fill lots in which building footings will be placed on fill
material. The grading specifications must indicate that all embankments meet FHA/HUD 79G
specifications. The Developer shall certify to the City that all lots with building footings
placed on fill material are appropriately constructed. Building permits will not be issued until
a soils report and an as-built certified grading plan have been submitted and approved by
City staff.
A National Pollution Discharge Elimination System General Stormwater Permit for
construction activity is required from the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency for areas
exceeding one acre being disturbed by grading. A copy of the Notice of Stormwater Permit
Coverage must be submitted to the City upon receipt from the MPCA.

areas were identified on site. The Notice of Application was sent out October 7, 2013 and
approved on November 1, 2013. The existing wetlands are located within Outlots A and B and
will be conveyed to the City by deed with the final plat.
Based on the information provided in the report dated October 4, 2013 and site visits, the
wetland delineation for the area outlined in the report has been determined to be acceptable
for use in implementing the Wetland Conservation Act.
The wetland replacement plan identified 0.16 acres of wetland impact for the development.
The applicant proposes to purchase 0.32 acres from an approved wetland bank in service area
#8 in watershed 38.
No wetland impacts are allowed until the completed Wetland Replacement Plan is submitted
to the City and approved. This decision only applies to the Minnesota WCA. Additional
approvals or permits may also be required by the Army Corps of Engineers. The
Developer/applicant is responsible to check with all appropriate authorities before
commencing work in or near wetlands.

A tree preservation plan has been submitted. The plan shows a total of 330 significant trees
within the site. The plan proposes to save 108 (32.7%) trees mainly within Outlot A, which will
be deeded to the City with the final plat.
The tree preservation plan satisfies City requirements. All “save” trees that are damaged or
removed will require replacement at a ratio of 2:1 as per the Lakeville Subdivision Ordinance.
The Developer is required to post a security for tree preservation on an individual lot basis for
each lot containing a “save” significant tree. The security is $1,500 for each lot with a “save”
significant tree and $1,000 for each outlot with a “save” significant tree and is calculated as
follows: Outlot A = $1,000.00

The erosion control plan was reviewed and includes the following:
• A gravel construction entrances is shown on the plan sheets, and included in the
erosion control notes.
• A seed/mulch specification that meets City requirements.
• All 3:1 slopes will be seeded and stabilized with fiber blanket.
• Stormwater treatment areas will be graded first.
• Silt fence will be installed to protect offsite areas from sediment transport.
• Installation of erosion control at street curbs after utilities are installed.
• Erosion control blanket is shown on all pond slopes.
• Streets must be cleared of debris at the end of each day.

• Pond Maintenance: A maintenance schedule for the first 2 years must be included
in the plans. This must include mowing 2 to 3 times, 30 days apart during the first
year with the mower deck set about 6-8 inches off the ground. The second year,
the pond areas must be mowed once before weeds set their seeds. This will
reduce weed establishment, and help stimulate the desirable vegetation. This will
cut down on maintenance in the long-term.
• Inlet protection is identified on the plans.
• Temporary checks and erosion control blanket are shown in swales and ditches.
Additional erosion control measures may be required during construction as deemed
necessary by City staff or the Dakota County Soil and Water District. Any additional measures
required shall be installed and maintained by the developer.
