Corridor Mixed Use and Low -to -Medium Density Residential; and,
WHEREAS, the proposed Comprehensive Plan amendment has been submitted to
adjacent governmental jurisdictions and the affected school district; comments were received
from the City of Burnsville and Dakota County and are incorporated herein by reference; and,
WHEREAS, the 2040 Comprehensive Plan provides that the City Council shall consider
possible effects of the proposed amendment with its judgment to be based upon, but not
limited to, the following factors:
1. The proposed action has been considered in relation to the specific policies
and provisions of and has been found to be consistent with the official City
Comprehensive Plan.
Finding: Interpretation of the 2040 Comprehensive Plan and decisions related to
proposed amendments thereof are a policy matter to be determined by the City
Council. The 2040 Lakeville Comprehensive Plan includes the policy that the City
will "amend established land use designations and related zoning classifications
that reflect Lakeville's long-term interest only when such action is consistent
with the goals and policies of the 2040 Comprehensive Plan". The application to
amend the 2040 Comprehensive Plan is not consistent with the following goals
of the Comprehensive Plan:
• Attracting, retaining, and expanding business and industry is a priority for
providing employment opportunities and diversification of Lakeville's tax base.
1
• Commercial uses shall be developed in concentrated market centers oriented
to major transportation corridors and intersections to promote sustainable
business activity responsive to Lakeville's needs and surrounding market area.
2. The proposed use is or will be compatible with present and future land uses
of the area.
Finding: The subject site is at the west edge of the 1-35 and CSAH 46 interchange
surrounded by existing and planned commercial uses and existing single family
residential land uses to the north and west. The proposed land use would be
compatible with surrounding existing and planned land uses in the area.
3. The proposed use conforms to all performance standards contained in the
Zoning Ordinance and the City Code.
Finding: The land uses and improvements illustrated on the sketch plan will be
required to comply with the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance, Subdivision
Ordinance, and City Code to be evaluated as part of necessary applications to
develop the property.
4. The proposed use can be accommodated with existing public services and
will not overburden the City's service capacity.
Finding: The subject site is within the MUSA. A condition of subdivision
approval will be that the use can be accommodated within existing public
service capacity or the development will be deemed premature in accordance
with the provisions of the Subdivision Ordinance.
S. Traffic generated by the proposed use is within capabilities of streets
serving the property.
Finding: The subject site is accessed by 162nd Street (CSAH 46), designated as an
A -Minor Arterial street, via Buck Hill Road, a major collector street, and Kendale
Drive, a local street. The streets accessing the property have adequate capacity
to accommodate traffic generated by the proposed use with access to be
constructed in accordance with the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance.
