Heights preliminary plat.
Mr. Kuennen presented the planning report for Feldman Heights, which consists of 25
single family lots and one outlot on 10.03 acres of land located east of Dodd Boulevard and
north of 1901' Street. The plat will include a trail extension from the existing trail in
Chokecherry Hill 2nd Addition and sidewalk along the west side of Iden Avenue. Iden
Avenue will be extended with future development of the adjacent property to the north.
Increased buffer yard screening is required on the two lots abutting Dodd Boulevard. Staff
recommends approval of the preliminary plat subject to 12 stipulations as recommended by

10. FedEx Lakeville
Page 5
Rob Sangdahl, representing Setzer Properties, requested Council approval of a preliminary
plat to be known as FedEx Lakeville and a conditional use permit to allow an exception to
the industrial district exterior building material provisions.
Mr. Olson presented the planning report for FedEx Lakeville, which proposes a two phase
development of FedEx Freight on property located in the southeast quadrant of 215th Street
(County Road 70) and Dodd Boulevard. The development of Lot 1 will include an 8,200
square foot office building, a 71,700 square foot freight trans -load facility with 92 dock doors
on the north and south sides of the dock building, a 13,700 square foot truck and trailer
maintenance shop and a motor fuel dispenser for the FedEx freight vehicles.
Mr. Olson explained that this 46 -acre property is zoned I-1, Limited Industrial District, and
has been zoned industrial for several decades. The FedEx industrial use of the property is
consistent with the land use guidelines outlined in the Comprehensive Plan. The
preliminary plat includes the construction of Humboldt Road between 217t'' Street and 215th
Street. The landscaping and screening plan was designed to maximize screening of the
FedEx property from public right-of-way, while also accommodating the restrictive
maximum height and setback standards set by Great River Energy for the electric
transmission power line easement along 2151 Street.
Mr. Olson explained that the proposed exception to the industrial district exterior building
material requirements is due to the unique design characteristics of the warehouse/dock
building. The proposed exterior building material will be consistent with other industrial
land uses in the area.
Council Member Swecker asked about right-of-way for future improvements to County
Road 70 and possible future signalization of the County Road 70/Humboldt Road
intersection. Mr. Olson stated the existing right-of-way on County Road 70 is adequate for
future improvements, ultimately a four lane divided roadway. The preliminary plat includes
the construction of right and left turn lanes on County Road 70 at Humboldt Road.
Signalization of that intersection is unlikely.
Motion was made by Davis, seconded by Swecker to approve the preliminary plat of FedEx
Lakeville, and findings of fact and a conditional use permit to allow an exception to the
industrial district exterior building material provisions.
Roll call was taken on the motion. Ayes - LaBeau, Davis, Little, Swecker
