PLANNING ANALYSIS
Zoning. The Aspen Grove final plat property was rezoned from RS-3, Single Family Residential
District and RM-1, Medium Density Residential District to RS-4, Single Family Residential
District as part of the Aspen Grove preliminary plat.
Existing Conditions. The Aspen Grove final plat area consists of one metes and bounds
described parcel that is the result of the previous property owner combing three separate
2
parcels. The property is moderately sloped from west to east and includes wetlands, a
tributary stream and stream floodplain area. There are overhead utility lines that shall be
removed as part of the development and condition of final plat approval.
Lots/Blocks/Width and Setback Requirements. Single family lots developed under the RS-4
District standards are required to provide a minimum lot area of 8,400 square feet for interior
lots and 10,200 square feet for corner lots. The proposed area of each lot meets the minimum
square footage requirements.
Setbacks. Setback requirements for single family lots in the RS-4 Districts are outlined below:
Interior Lot Corner Lot
Minimum Lot Area 8,400sf. 10,200sf.
Min. Lot Width 70ft. 85ft.
Min. Lot Depth (Double Frontage) 150 ft. 150 ft.
Max. Building Coverage 40% 40%
Setbacks Front 20ft. to bldg. / 25ft. to garage
Side interior 7ft.
Side corner 20ft.
Rear 30ft.
The proposed building pads meet the minimum setback requirements for interior and corner
lots.
Development Density. The Aspen Grove final plat consists of 35 new single-family lots and
one outlot on 23.72 acres. This results in a gross density of 1.47 units per acre. The net density,
excluding Outlots A and B (10.95 acres), is 2.74 units per acre. Lot sizes range between 18,637
square feet and 8,400 square feet in area.
Phasing. Aspen Grove will be developed in two phases.
Outlot. Two outlots are proposed with the Aspen Grove final plat.
• Outlot A is 4.14 acres in area and will be deeded to the City for wetland preservation
and stormwater management purposes.
• Outlot B is 6.81 acres in area and will be retained by the developer for future phase
two development.
Access. Aspen Grove will have two accesses. One will be from Hamburg Avenue via 204th
Street to be constructed with the first phase final plat and the other will be an extension of
Greenwood Avenue from the south, which will also be constructed with the first phase.
Streets & Sidewalks. The first phase of Aspen Grove will include the construction of four
local residential streets and right-of-way dedication for Hamburg Avenue, a minor collector
street.
Hamburg Avenue is a minor collector roadway with a right-of-way requirement of 40 feet,
ash shown on the final plat. Hamburg Avenue is scheduled to be improved in 2019 to an
3
urban design road in the current Capital Improvement Plan. Driveway access onto
Hamburg Avenue is not permitted.
204th Street will be a local street that will include a 60-foot wide right-of-way with a five-foot
wide concrete sidewalk on the north side of the street. 204th Street will extend to the east
eventually connecting to 205th Street west of Cedar Avenue. A Future Street Extension sign
shall be installed at the terminus of 204th Street until the street is extended to the east.
Guernsey Court is a cul-de-sac street that will extend south from 204th Street. Guernsey
Court will be a local street with a 60-foot wide right-of-way and a 32-foot wide street.
Gresham Way is a local street that includes 60 feet of right-of-way with a 32-foot wide street.
A five-foot wide concrete sidewalk will be constructed on the east side of the street.
Gresham Way will end in a temporary cul-de-sac until such time that the property to the
north is developed and the street is extended. The developer shall dedicate a temporary
turnaround easement at the end of Gresham Way. A Future Street Extension sign shall be
installed at the terminus of Gresham Way until the street is extended to the north.
Greenwood Avenue will extended from the Linden Hills subdivision and across 204th Street
to end in a cu-de-sac street. The street includes 60 feet of right-of-way with a 32-foot wide
street. A five foot wide concrete sidewalk will be constructed on the east side of
Greenwood Avenue, south of 204th Street.
Trails. A future pedestrian trail is proposed along the east side of Hamburg Avenue. The trail
will be constructed at the time Hamburg Avenue is upgraded consistent with the City’s
Capital Improvement Plan.
Park Dedication. The Parks, Trails and Open Space Plan does not identify park land
dedication within the boundaries of the Aspen Grove development. A cash payment in lieu of
park land will be paid at the time of final plat approval. The 2018 park dedication rate for low
density residential is $4,090.00 per lot for a total of $143,150.00.
Tree Preservation. The tree preservation plan identifies 157 significant trees within the plat
area. The plan proposes to save 73 (46%) of the significant trees. Additional trees will be
planted around the stormwater basins within Outlot A.
Wetlands. Areas of wetland were delineated within the plat boundaries in a document
prepared by Kjaolhaug Environmental. No wetlands will be impacted with the development
of the Aspen Grove final plat. The wetlands and wetland buffers will be deeded to the City as
an outlot for wetland preservation purposes. The wetland delineation and impact plan is
addressed in detail in the engineering division memo.
Grading, Drainage and Erosion Control. The final plat includes grading, drainage and
erosion control plans. Grading, drainage and erosion control is discussed in more detail in the
August 27, 2018 engineering report.
4
Subdivision Identification Sign. The developer is not proposing a subdivision identification
sign within the final plat. If a monument sign is proposed, they are required to be placed at
the subdivision entrance off of a major collector or arterial street. A major collector or arterial
street does not abut the Aspen Grove final plat.
RECOMMENDATION
The Aspen Grove final plat is consistent with the approved preliminary plat and complies with
the requirements of the Zoning and Subdivision Ordinances. Planning Department staff
recommends approval of the final plat subject to the following conditions:
1. The recommendations listed in the August 27, 2018 engineering report.
2. Outlot A shall be deeded to the City for wetland preservation and stormwater
management purposes.
3. The developer shall construct sidewalks on one side of all local streets except cul-de-sacs
in compliance with the approved grading plan.
4. A “Future Street Extension” sign shall be installed at the terminus of 204th Street and
Gresham Way. A temporary turnaround easement is required at the north end of
Gresham Way.
5. Building permit plans for all lots must show space for three garage stalls whether or not
three garage stalls are proposed with the initial construction of houses on each lot.
6. Driveway access is not permitted onto Hamburg Avenue.

Aspen Grove is located within subdistricts SC-45 and SC-74 of the South Creek stormwater
district as identified in the City’s Water Resources Management Plan.
Development of Aspen Grove includes the construction of a public stormwater management
basin within Outlot A. The basin will provide water quality treatment, volume and rate control
of the stormwater runoff generated from the Aspen Grove subdivision. The stormwater basin
design is consistent with City requirements. A portion of runoff from the western end of the
Aspen Grove subdivision will be routed to the Linden Ridge subdivision via surface flow and
through proposed storm sewer; this flow will be collected by existing storm sewer on the
north side of the Linden Ridge subdivision and routed to the existing stormwater
management basin for Linden Ridge. The Developer has demonstrated that the existing
storm sewer and stormwater management basin in Linden Ridge is sized to handle the
proposed runoff from Aspen Grove.
The final grading plan shall identify all fill lots in which the building footings will be placed on
fill material. The grading specifications shall also indicate that all embankments meet
FHA/HUD 79G specifications. The Developer shall certify to the City that all lots with 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.
Aspen Grove contains more than one acre of site disturbance. 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.
SSTTOORRMM SSEEWWEERR
Development of Aspen Grove includes the construction of public storm sewer systems. Storm
sewer will be installed within the subdivision to collect and convey stormwater runoff
generated from within the public right-of-way and lots to the public stormwater
management basin located within Outlot A and to existing storm sewer in the Linden Ridge
subdivision.
Draintile construction is required in areas of non-granular soils within Aspen Grove for the
street sub-cuts and lots. Any additional draintile construction, including perimeter draintile

556,261.20 s.f. x $0.178/s.f. = $99,014.49
Net Area of Aspen Grove Area Charge Total
The Developer will receive a credit to the Trunk Storm Sewer Area Charge for deeding Outlot
A to the City, consistent with City policy. The credit is based on the area of the outlot
calculated at the rate of $5,500.00 per acre, and will be applied to the Aspen Grove final plat
cash fees. The credit is calculated as follows:
4.14 acres x $5,500/acre = $22,770.00
Total Area of Outlot A Per Acre Credit Total
Final locations and sizes of all storm sewer facilities will be reviewed by City staff with the final
construction plans.
FEMA FLOODPLAIN ANALYSIS
A portion of the Aspen Grove final plat (proposed to be platted as Outlot A) is shown on the
Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) as Zone A and Zone AE by the Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA). Based on this designation, a portion of the plat is located within
a Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA), as determined by FEMA. The only grading within the
floodplain boundary will be to construct the outlet structure for the stormwater management
basin. The Developer has submitted a No Rise Certificate certifying that the proposed grading
will not impact the floodway width or 100-year flood elevation.
The City has submitted a Conditional Letter of Map Revision (CLOMR) application to modify
the FIRM to develop the adjacent Cedar Crossings subdivision consistent with the approved
preliminary plat. The Letter of Map Revision was issued by FEMA on September 6, 2018. The
proposed revised floodplain boundary will extend within Outlot A of Aspen Grove. The City
intends to submit a subsequent CLOMR to modify the FIRM between Cedar Crossings and the
Berres Ridge development upstream. The proposed Aspen Grove grading plan will be used to
develop the CLOMR to ensure that the revised floodplain boundary does not impact the site
development layout for Aspen Grove. The Developer may be required to modify the grading
plan for Aspen Grove to ensure that the SFHA for the revised floodplain boundary is
contained within Outlot A.
