KNOB HILL NORTH PRELIMINARY PLAT
Proposed Action
Staff recommends adoption of the following motion: Move to approve a resolution approving the
Knob Hill North preliminary plat.
Overview
KJ Walk, Inc. has submitted a preliminary plat application for 36 single family lots and 42 detached
townhome lots on 30 acres of land located west of Pilot Knob Road (CSAH 31) and north of 179th
Street (future CSAH 9).
At its May 7, 2020 meeting, the Planning Commission held a public hearing to consider the
preliminary plat. There was no public comment. The Planning Commission unanimously
recommended approval of the application. The Parks, Recreation, and Natural Resources
Committee unanimously recommended approval of the preliminary plat at their May 6, 2020
meeting.
Primary Issue to Consider
What is the timeline for the construction of 179th Street (future CSAH 9) to provide a connection
between Flagstaff Avenue and Pilot Knob Road (CSAH 31)? After City Council approval of the Knob
Hill North preliminary plat, the Developer intends to begin grading the site, which will include fill
from the 179th Street right of way. Construction of 179th Street will occur this summer, with paving
expected to take place this fall. The ultimate plan for 179th Street is for the street to continue east
and connect to State Highway 3.

PLANNING ANALYSIS
PRELIMINARY PLAT
Existing Conditions. The development site consists of one parcel, Outlot E, Knob Hill
of Lakeville. The site has been used for agriculture (Exhibit A).
Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan. The Knob Hill North property is located
in Planning District 3 of the 2040 Comprehensive Plan. Planning District 3 guides the
subject property for low/medium density residential where city sewer is available.
MUSA. The Knob Hill North preliminary plat area is located within the current MUSA.
Zoning. The parcel is currently zoned RM-1, Medium Density Residential District. The
Zoning Map update proposes to rezone the portion of the preliminary plat that is west
of Eventide Way to RS-4, Single Family Residential District. The detached townhome
lots will remain zoned RM-1. (Exhibit B)
Adjacent Land Uses. Adjacent land uses and zoning are as follows:
North – Country View Manufactured Home Park (RSMH District)
East – Pilot Knob Road, Single Family Homes (RM-1 District)
South – 179th Street (Future CSAH 9), Single Family Homes (RS-4 District)
West – Single Family Homes (RS-3 District)
Consistency with the Capital Improvement Plan (CIP). City streets, sanitary sewer
and water improvements for the area of Knob Hill North will be financed and
constructed by the developer. The development costs associated with the Knob Hill
North development are not programmed in the 2020–2024 CIP.
Premature Subdivision Criteria. A preliminary plat may be deemed premature if any
of the criteria listed in Chapter 10-2-4-1 of the Subdivision Ordinance exist. Eligible
criteria pertain to a lack of adequate: drainage, water, streets, sanitary sewer, and
public service capacity (police and fire protection). The other pertinent criteria pertain
to inconsistencies with the City Comprehensive Land Use and Capital Improvement
Plans (discussed above). Staff review of the Knob Hill North preliminary plat against
these criteria finds that it is not a premature subdivision.
Density/Average Lot Size. The Knob Hill North preliminary plat consists of 36 single
family lots and 42 detached townhome lots on 29.8 acres. This results in a gross overall
density of 2.62 units per acre. Excluding the future park and stormwater ponding
outlots, the net density is 3.14 units per acre.
SINGLE FAMILY LOT REQUIREMENTS
Lots/Blocks. The following minimum single-family lot size requirements of the RS-4,
Single Family Residential District pertain to the Knob Hill North preliminary plat:

Single family lot sizes within the Knob Hill North preliminary plat range from 8,400
square feet to 15,953 square feet in area. All of the single family lots meet the lot area
and width requirements of the RS-4 District.
Setbacks. The following minimum requirements for single family building setbacks in
the RS-4 District pertain to the Knob Hill North preliminary plat:
Front Yard Side Yard

The proposed house pads shown on the Knob Hill North grading, drainage and
erosion control plan indicate that all 36 single-family lots have adequate building pad
areas that meet setback requirements for principal structures.
DETACHED TOWNHOME DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS
Lot Requirements.
The proposed unit lots shown on the Knob Hill North preliminary plat have sufficient
area to accommodate detached units. A homeowner’s association will be required to
be established for ownership and maintenance of Lot 49, Block 1 and Lot 12, Block 4.
The RM-1 District requires at least 5,000 square feet per unit. The Knob Hill North
preliminary plat has an average of 10,494 square feet per unit for the detached
townhomes area, which exceeds the minimum lot area per unit requirements of the
RM-1 District.
Setbacks. The following minimum requirements for detached townhome building
setbacks in the RM-1 District pertain to the Knob Hill North preliminary plat:
Base Lot Between Buildings
(Detached Units)
Front Yard
(to ROW)
RM-1 30 feet 14 feet 20 feet (front)
25 feet (garage)
The proposed building pads shown on the Knob Hill North grading, drainage and
erosion control plan indicate that all 42 detached townhomes have adequate building
pad areas that meet setback requirements.
Exterior Materials. Each townhouse unit must meet the requirements of Section 11-
58-21.C.4, which requires that a minimum of 25% of the area of each elevation of the
unit must have an exterior finish of brick, stucco, and/or natural or artificial stone.
Except for brick, stucco, and/or natural or artificial stone, no single elevation may have
4 | Page
more than 75% of one type of finish or have more than 60% of all elevations of one
type of finish. The City has deemed the use of cement fiberboard material as satisfying
the minimum masonry material requirement and is therefore also allowed to exceed
the maximum area limit for non-masonry materials.
Floor Area. The developer must submit dimensioned floor plans for the detached
townhome units to verify compliance with the minimum requirements for above
grade floor area established by Section 11-17-13.D of the Zoning Ordinance.
Garage Area. The detached townhome units are proposed to be slab on grade so the
minimum area of each garage must be at least 540 square feet. Each garage must have
a minimum interior width of 20 feet.
Landscaping. Landscaping plans for required foundation plantings around the
detached townhome units will be required with the final plat. The Developer must also
provide information to demonstrate conformance with the requirements of Section
11-58-21.K.
Outlots. There are two outlots totaling 6.84 acres in the Knob Hill North preliminary
plat. The use of the proposed outlots will be as follows:
Outlot A – 4.52 acre outlot for future park space.
Outlot B – 2.32 acre outlot consisting of a stormwater management basin that will
be deeded to the City with the final plat.
Phasing. Knob Hill North is proposed to be developed in two phases. The detached
townhome units will be the first phase of development with the single family lots
being the second phase of development. The expected phasing plan is shown on
Exhibit C.
Streets. The following is a summary of streets proposed with the Knob Hill North
preliminary plat. Additional detailed information is outlined in the Engineering
Division memorandum dated April 29, 2020.
Pilot Knob Road (CSAH 31) – Pilot Knob Road is east of and adjacent to the property and
is classified as a minor arterial in the Comprehensive Transportation Plan. Right of way
for Pilot Knob Road adjacent to the plat was dedicated with the Knob Hill of Lakeville
plat. No additional right of way is required.
179th Street (future CSAH 9) – 179th Street is a two-lane minor arterial street constructed
from Eventide Way to Pilot Knob Road. Right of way for the portion west of Eventide
Way to the west was dedicated with the Knob Hill of Lakeville plat and no additional
right of way is required to be dedicated.
178th Street – 178th Street will be a residential street constructed within a 60-foot right-
of-way and a 32 foot wide street. The street will connect with the existing 178th Street
at the west plat boundary and end at 179th Street. A five foot wide concrete sidewalk
will be constructed along one side of the street.
Everest Avenue – Everest Avenue will be a residential street constructed within a 60-
foot-wide right-of-way and a 32 foot wide street with a five foot wide concrete
5 | Page
sidewalk along the south side of the street, between 178th Street and Euclid Avenue.
East of Euclid Avenue, Everest Avenue will end in a permanent cul-de-sac.
Euclid Avenue – Euclid Avenue will be a residential street constructed within a 60 foot
wide right-of-way and a 32 foot wide street with a five foot wide concrete sidewalk
along the west side of the street. It will provide a right-in right-out access to 179th
Street.
Evershed Way – Evershed Way will be a residential street constructed within a 60 foot
wide right-of-way and a 32 foot wide street with a five foot wide concrete sidewalk
along the east side of the street. It will provide a right-in right-out access to 179th
Street.
All streets meet the minimum width and design requirements of the Subdivision
Ordinance.
Sidewalks/Trails. The developer will construct five-foot-wide concrete sidewalks
along one side of all streets in the development, except the cul de sac. The City’s 2015
Parks, Trail and Open Space Plan identifies bituminous trails along 179th Street and
plans for 10 foot wide trails to be constructed on both sides of 179th Street were
approved with the Knob Hill of Lakeville final plat.
Grading, Drainage, Erosion Control, and Utilities. Proposed grading, drainage,
erosion control, and utilities for the Knob Hill North preliminary plat is shown on the
grading, drainage and erosion control and utility plans. All existing and new local
utilities shall be placed underground.
Grading, drainage, erosion control, and utilities details are outlined in the April 29,
2020 engineering report prepared by Logan Vlasaty, Civil Engineer and Mac Cafferty,
Environmental Resources Manager. The Engineering Division recommends approval of
the preliminary plat.
Tree Preservation. There are no significant trees located within the Knob Hill North
preliminary plat boundary.
Wetlands. There are no wetlands within the Knob Hill North preliminary plat
boundary.
Residential Buffer Yard Requirements. Two single family home lots abut 179th Street
and require increased buffer yard lot widths and side yard setbacks in the Knob Hill
North preliminary plat. 179th Street is classified as a future minor arterial in the
Comprehensive Transportation Plan. The buffer yard screening must provide an
effective minimal visual screen to a height of 10 feet. The landscape plan includes the
installation of 13 coniferous and overstory trees on a two foot berm along the 179th
Street buffer yard areas. (Exhibit L) The lots abutting 179th Street must install sod to the
trail. A $1,000/lot security will be required with the building permit.
Lot 49, Block 1 and Lot 12, Block 4, adjacent to Pilot Knob Road and 179th Street,
include the planting of 100 coniferous and overstory trees on a two-foot berm to
provide a landscape buffer to the detached townhome units.
Fencing. The Developer is proposing to erect a six-foot tall white vinyl privacy fence
along the north plat boundary, at the rear of Lots 1-16, Block 16 and the north
6 | Page
boundary of Lot 49, Block 1. A fence permit is required prior to the installation of the
fence. The fence located on Lot 49, Block 1 must be maintained by the HOA. The
placement of the fence on Lots 1-16, Block 1 should be done such that future
homeowners will have to ability to replace or remove the fence on their property
without affecting the fence on adjacent parcels.
Park Dedication. Park dedication will be satisfied through land dedication and a cash
contribution. The Autumn Meadows Third Addition plat dedicated 2.87 acres of land
for park purposes north of 179th Street, along its east plat boundary. The Knob Hill
North preliminary plat provides a 4.52 acre outlot along its west plat boundary, to be
deeded to the city for park purposes. If there is any additional park dedication
requirement after Outlot A is deeded to the City, it will be satisfied by cash
contribution. The Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Committee will review the
preliminary plat at their May 6, 2020 meeting. Their comments will be forwarded to
the Planning Commission at the public hearing.
Signs. No subdivision identification monument signs are proposed with the Knob Hill
North preliminary plat. According to the developer, if a subdivision identification
monument sign is planned it will be a maintenance-free boulder and will be located
on private property.
Plat Commission. The Dakota County Plat Commission reviewed and approved the
preliminary plat at their February 4, 2020 meeting. The Plat Commission letter is
included as Exhibit O.

Re: KNOB HILL NORTH
The Dakota County Plat Commission met on February 4, 2019, to consider the preliminary plat of the above
referenced plat. The plat is adjacent to County State Aid Highway 31 (Pilot Knob Rd.) and future County Road
179th St. W., and is therefore subject to the Dakota County Contiguous Plat Ordinance.
This is a replat of OUTLOT E, KNOB HILL OF LAKEVILLE. Restricted access symbols should be shown along all of
CSAH 31 (shown as Lot 54 on the proposed plat). Restricted access should be shown along all of 179th Street
(future County Road) except for the three access openings as shown on the proposed plat. A quit claim deed
to Dakota County for restricted is required to be recorded with the plat mylars.
The Plat Commission has approved the preliminary plat provided that the described conditions are met, and
reviewed the final plat and recommends approval to the County Board of Commissioners provided that the
described conditions are met.
Traffic volumes on CASH 31 are 28,000 ADT and are anticipated to be 39,000 ADT by the year 2030. These
traffic volumes indicate that current Minnesota noise standards for residential units could be exceeded for
the proposed plat. Residential developments along County highways commonly result in noise complaints.
In order for noise levels from the highway to meet acceptable levels for adjacent residential units, substantial
building setbacks, buffer areas, and other noise mitigation elements should be incorporated into this
development.
No work shall commence in the County right of way until a permit is obtained from the County
Transportation Department and no permit will be issued until the plat has been filed with the County
Recorder’s Office. The Plat Commission does not review or approve the actual engineering design of
proposed accesses or other improvements to be made in the right of way. Nothing herein is intended to
restrict or limit Dakota County’s rights with regards to Dakota County rights of way or property. The Plat
Commission highly recommends early contact with the Transportation Department to discuss the permitting
process which reviews the design and may require construction of highway improvements, including, but not
limited to, turn lanes, drainage features, limitations on intersecting street widths, medians, etc. Please
contact Butch McConnell regarding permitting questions at (952) 891-7115 or Todd Tollefson regarding Plat
Commission or Plat Ordinance questions at (952) 891-7070.
Sincerely,
Todd B. Tollefson

district, as well as subdistrict FO-1 of the Farmington stormwater district as identified in the
City’s Water Resources Management Plan.
Development of Knob Hill North includes the construction of one City owned and maintained
stormwater management basins to collect and treat the stormwater runoff generated from
the site. The basin will be located within Outlot B and will provide water quality treatment
and rate control of the stormwater runoff generated from the subdivision. The stormwater
management basin design is consistent with City requirements.
Development of Knob Hill North includes the construction of one privately owned
landscaped drainage swale that will require a City and Developer maintenance agreement
with the final plat.
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.

The developer is responsible for obtaining a MPCA Construction Permit for the site as well as
developing a SWPPP for the site prior to construction. The permit requires that all erosion and
sediment BMPS be clearly outlined in a site’s SWPPP. Changes made throughout construction
should be documented in the SWPPP.
The rear swale along the north property line must be stabilized with erosion control blanket
once graded and storm sewer is installed. Additional erosion control measures may be
required during construction as deemed necessary by City staff. Any additional measures
required shall be installed and maintained by the developer.
