North Creek Second Addition preliminary plat.
December 16, 2025
KJ Walk, Inc. has applied for a preliminary plat to allow the development plat of 26 single
family residential lots and 27 detached townhome lots on 13.35 acres to be known as
North Creek Second Addition. The preliminary plat is located east of Pilot Knob Road
(CSAH 31) and south of 173rd Street.
The North Creek Second Addition preliminary plat plans have been distributed to
Environmental Resources, Engineering Division, and Parks and Recreation Department
staff.

PLANNING A NALYSIS
PRELIMINARY PLAT
Existing Conditions. The development site consists of one parcel that was platted as
Outlot E, North Creek. In 2019, a preliminary plat for the North Creek development was
approved by the City Council, and later that year the North Creek final plat was approved
and recorded. This parcel was intended to be developed as the second and final phase of
the plat, but ultimately the preliminary plat approval expired, thus requiring a new
preliminary plat application for the development of the site. The use on the property has
been primarily undeveloped agricultural land as well as a house, fence, shed, well, and
septic on the property, which must be removed with the development of the site.
The North Creek Second Addition plat area
is located in Planning District 3 of the 2040 Comprehensive Plan, which guides the
subject property for low/medium density residential development where city sewer is
available.
. The North Creek Second Addition preliminary plat
area is currently zoned RST-2. The developer proposes to construct single-family homes
and detached townhomes, both of which are a permitted use within the RST-2 District.
Adjacent land uses and zoning are as follows:
North – Single family homes (RST-2), 173rd Street
East – Ely Avenue, single-family homes (RST-2)
South –North Creek (P/OS)
West – Pilot Knob Road, Manufactured Home Park (RSMH)
City streets, sanitary sewer and
water improvements for the area of North Creek Second will be financed and constructed
by the developer. The development costs associated with the North Creek Second
development are not programmed in the 2025– 2029 CIP.
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 North Creek Second Addition preliminary plat
against these criteria finds that it is not a premature subdivision.
. The North Creek Second Addition preliminary plat consists
of 26 single family lots and 27 detached townhome lots on 13.35 acres. This results in a
gross/net density of 3.97 units per acre.

SINGLE FAMILY LOT REQUIREMENTS
Lots/Blocks. The following minimum single-family lot size requirements of the RST-2,
Single- and Two-Family Residential District pertain to the North Creek Second Addition
preliminary plat:
Single family lot sizes within the North Creek Second Addition preliminary plat range
from 8,404 square feet to 11,464 square feet in area. All of the single family lots meet the
lot area, width and depth requirements of the RST-2 District.
The following minimum requirements for single family building setbacks in the
RST-2 District pertain to the North Creek Second Addition preliminary plat:
25 feet (garage)
The proposed house pads shown on the North Creek Second Addition grading, drainage
and erosion control plans indicate that all 26 single-family lots have adequate building
pad areas that meet setback requirements for principal structures.
The following minimum requirements for detached townhome
building setbacks in the RST-2 District pertain to the North Creek Second Addition
preliminary plat:
25 feet (garage)
The proposed unit lots shown on the North Creek Second Addition 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 23, Block 1 and Lot 22,
Block 3. Homeowner’s association documents must be reviewed and approved by the
4
City Attorney and proof of recording provided prior to issuance of any building permits
for the detached townhomes.
The RST-2 District requires at least 5,000 square feet per unit. The North Creek Second
Addition preliminary plat has an average of 7,886 square feet per unit for the detached
townhomes area, which exceeds the minimum lot area per unit requirements of the RST-
2 District.
Each unit must meet the requirements of Section 11-57-19.B.3, which
addresses exterior materials of the detached townhomes. Earlier this year, the City
Council approved an ordinance amendment that removed the requirement for stone,
brick, and/or stucco on the front elevation. The ordinance still requires a variety of
materials and ensures that any one material doesn’t exceed 75% of one elevation.
Variations in siding style, such as lap, shakes, and board and batten count as different
materials to encourage variety. The Zoning Ordinance also deems 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.
Detached townhomes in the RST-2 District require garages to be a
minimum of 20 feet in width and have an area of at least 440 square feet. All calculations
are made with interior measurements.
Each detached townhome unit must provide landscaping at the immediate
perimeter of the unit. All landscaped areas including common open space and public
right of way, must have an inground irrigation system with an automatic controller. With
the final plat, the Developer must provide information that the landscaping of the
detached townhome units meets the requirements of Section 11-58-21K.
Seven single family lots and a portion of a
townhome common area abut Pilot Knob Road and require increased buffer yard lot sizes
and setbacks in the North Creek Second Addition preliminary plat. Pilot Knob Road is
classified as a minor arterial in the Comprehensive Transportation Plan. The landscape
plan includes the installation of 38 eight-foot tall spruce, pine, and arborvitae trees along
the rear yards of Lots 1-7, Block 1 and a portion of Lot 23, Block 1. Prior to City Council
consideration of the preliminary plat, the landscape plan must be modified to include the
specific species of spruce and pine to be planted, subject to the approval of the City
Forester. Lots 1-7, Block 1 and Lot 23, Block 1 must install sod within the buffer area to
the rear property line. A $1,000 per lot security for Lots 1-7, Block 1 will be required with
the building permit. A security for the plantings within the townhome common area lots
must be provided with the final plat to guarantee the installation of the landscaping.
There are no outlots proposed with the North Creek Second Addition
preliminary plat.
North Creek Second Addition will be developed in one phase.
5
Signs. No subdivision identification monument signs are proposed with the North Creek
Second Addition preliminary plat.
The following is a summary of streets proposed with the North Creek Second
Addition preliminary plat. Additional detailed information is outlined in the Engineering
Division memorandum dated November 24, 2025.
Pilot Knob Road (CSAH 31) – Pilot Knob Road is west of and adjacent to the property
and is classified as a minor arterial in the Comprehensive Transportation Plan. The
required right of way for Pilot Knob Road was dedicated with the North Creek plat in
2019. No additional right of way is required to be dedicated.
174th Street – 174th Street will be a residential street constructed within a 60-foot right-of-
way and a 32-foot-wide street with a five-foot-wide concrete sidewalk along one side of
the street.
175th Street – 175th Street will be a residential street constructed within a 60-foot-wide
right-of-way and a 32-foot-wide street between Encina Path and Ely Avenue. A five-foot-
wide concrete sidewalk will be located on one side of the street.
Encina Path – Encina Path will be extended south from it’s current terminus at Ely
Avenue and will be a 32-foot-wide residential street constructed within a 60-foot-wide
right-of-way with a five-foot wide concrete sidewalk along the west side of the street.
Driveway access to Pilot Knob Road is prohibited for Lots 1-7, Block 1.
All streets meet the minimum width and design requirements of the Subdivision
Ordinance.
Proposed grading, drainage, erosion
control, and utilities for the North Creek Second Addition 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 November 24,
2025 engineering report prepared by Alanna Sobotka, Civil Engineer and Mac Cafferty,
Environmental Resources Manager. The Engineering Division recommends approval of
the preliminary plat.
Because the North Creek Second Addition preliminary plat
application was submitted prior to the adoption of the new tree preservation ordinance, it
is not subject to the new ordinance. The trees on site are primarily Boxelder,
Cottonwood, Willow, and Spruce; the last of which were planted on site by the previous
owner for screening purposes. The submitted plan is consistent with what was approved
as part of the original North Creek preliminary plat. The tree plan indicates there are 168
trees on site; however nearly all of trees proposed to be saved are outside the plat
boundary and within the Pilot Knob Road ROW or the adjacent city-owned outlot. Prior
to City Council consideration of the preliminary plat, the plan must be updated to
6
remove the offsite trees from the inventory and revise the numbers of the total trees on
site, to be saved, and to be removed, as well as indicating on the plan which trees are
proposed to be removed.
A wetland delineation was completed and approved on 04/11/2018, as part of
the original preliminary plat. No wetland impacts are proposed with the development.
Mac Cafferty has reviewed the wetland delineation report and his comments are included
in the November 24, 2025 engineering report.
Land for North Creek Park was deeded to the City with the North
Creek final plat in 2019, which satisfied a portion of the park dedication requirements for
the original North Creek preliminary plat. Cash in lieu is required to be paid on 45.97 lots
of the North Creek Second Addition plat and will be paid at the time of final plat.
The developer will construct five-foot-wide concrete sidewalks along
one side of all streets in the development. The City’s 2015 Parks, Trail and Open Space
Plan identifies bituminous trails along Pilot Knob Road. Per the Pheasant Run of
Lakeville 7th Addition Development Contract, the developer is required to construct a 10-
foot-wide trail along the east side of Pilot Knob Road, from 173rd Street to 179th Street.
The trail has been constructed from the south side of the North Creek creek to 179th
Street.
The North Creek Second Addition preliminary plat area is located within the
current MUSA.
A private overhead electric line and pole are located along the west
property boundary. The developer will be required to place these utilities underground as
a part of the improvements on the site. A security will be required to guarantee that the
work is completed.
The Dakota County Plat Commission reviewed and approved the
preliminary plat at their August 13, 2025 meeting. The Plat Commission letter is included
as Exhibit I.
Community Development Department staff recommends approval of the North Creek
Second Addition preliminary plat subject to the following stipulations:
1. Implementation of the recommendations listed in the November 24, 2025
engineering report.
2. Park dedication shall be satisfied with a cash contribution paid with the final plat
for each development phase.
3. The developer shall construct five-foot-wide concrete sidewalks along one side of
all streets. The Developer shall construct a 10-foot wide bituminous trail along the
east side of Pilot Knob Road, from 173rd Street to the current terminus of the
7
bituminous trail on the south side of the North Creek creek, per the Pheasant Run
of Lakeville 7th Addition development contract.
4. Buffer yard landscaping shall be installed according to the approved landscape
plan. A security for the buffer yard landscaping shall be submitted with the final
plat.
5. Lots 1-7, Block 1 must sod the buffer yard to the rear property line. A $1,000 per
lot security for these lots will be required with the building permit.
6. All new local utilities and any existing overhead service utilities located on the
property shall be placed underground.
7. The existing house, accessory structures, fence, well, and septic system must be
removed with the development of this property.
8. A homeowner’s association must be established for ownership and maintenance
of Lot 23, Block 1 and Lot 22, Block 3.
9. Prior to City Council consideration of the preliminary plat, the tree inventory
must be revised to remove all off-site trees and the counts for total trees, to be
saved, and to be removed updated on the plan, and to indicate on the plan which
trees are proposed to be removed.
10. Prior to City Council consideration of the preliminary plat, the landscape plan
must be modified to include the specific species of spruce and pine to be planted,
subject to the approval of the City Forester.

Re: NORTH CREEK SECOND ADDITION
The Dakota County Plat Commission met on August 13, 2025, to consider the preliminary plat of the
above referenced plat. The plat is adjacent to CSAH 31 (Pilot Knob Rd.) and is therefore subject to the
Dakota County Contiguous Plat Ordinance.
The proposed plat is a replat of Outlot E, NORTH CREEK. The future right of way needs are 100 feet of
half right of way along CSAH 31. The plat includes the proper road dedication along CSAH 31. Restricted
access is shown along all of Outlot E. There were no other comments.
The Plat Commission has approved the preliminary and final plat and will recommend approval to the
County Board of Commissioners meeting on September 9, 2025.
Traffic volumes on CSAH 31 are 21,672 ADT and are anticipated to be 33,000 ADT by the year 2040.
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 TJ Bentley regarding permitting questions at (952) 891-7115 or Todd
Tollefson regarding Plat Commission or Plat Ordinance questions at (952) 891-7070.

Todd B. Tollefson

The North Creek Second Addition site consists of Outlot E, North Creek totaling 13.35 acres
and lies north of North Creek, which runs along the southern property line from the west to
the east. The parcel consists of land that was primarily mass graded with the development of
North Creek. There was a previous homestead with a house, fence, sheds, well and septic on
the property that shall be removed in full with the development of the site.
Pilot Knob Road (CSAH 31)
North Creek Second Addition is located east of and adjacent to Pilot Knob Road, a minor
arterial County highway, as identified in the City’s Transportation Plan. Pilot Knob Road
adjacent to the site is a four-lane divided rural roadway. The current Dakota County Plat
Review Needs Map indicates a half right-of-way requirement of 100-feet and designates it as a
future six-lane divided urban roadway over its entire length adjacent to the plat. The
expansion of Pilot Knob Road to a six-lane roadway is not identified in the City’s or County’s
current Capital Improvement Plans. The preliminary plat was reviewed and recommended for
approval by the Dakota County Plat Commission at its August 15, 2025 meeting. There will be
no access to the development from Pilot Knob Road.
175th Street
The development of North Creek Second Addition includes the extension of 175th Street, a
local street. 175th Street is designed as a 32-foot wide, two-lane urban roadway with a five-
foot concrete sidewalk along the south side of the street. The Developer is dedicating 60-feet
of right-of-way in compliance with City ordinance requirements.
Encina Path
Development of North Creek Second Addition includes the extension of Encina Path, a local
street which will be extended south from it’s current terminus at the north boundary of North
Creek Second Addition. Encina Path is designed as a 32-foot wide, two-lane urban roadway
with a five-foot concrete sidewalk along the west side of the street. The Developer is

Development of North Creek Second Addition includes the construction of public sidewalks
along the west side of Encina Path, north side of 174th Street, and the south side of 175th
Street.
The parks and trails within North Creek Second Addition are to be developed to allow for
connection to other local and regional facilities as part of the City’s overall Parks, Trails and
Open Space System Plan. Consistent with the City’s Parks Trails and Open Space Plan and the
Pheasant Run of Lakeville 7th Addition Development Contract the Developer shall construct a
10-foot trail along the east side of Pilot Knob Road adjacent to the plat. The Developer shall
construct the trail from 173rd Street to the current terminus of the bituminous trail previously
constructed to the south with the Pheasant Run of Lakeville 7th Addition plat. A grading
permit will not be approved for the site until a bituminous trail design is approved by both
City and County staff.
The park dedication requirement for the parent parcels has not been collected and shall be
satisfied through a cash contribution that shall be paid with the final plat.
North Creek Second Addition is located within subdistrict NC-20010 of the North Creek
sanitary sewer district as identified in the City’s Comprehensive Sewer Plan. The Developer is
proposing to direct all wastewater from the preliminary plat through the NC-20010
subdistrict; the City has reviewed this proposal and determined that the downstream facilities
have sufficient capacity to serve the proposed subdivision. Wastewater will be conveyed to
the MCES Farmington Interceptor and continue to the Empire Wastewater Treatment Facility.
The Sanitary Sewer Availability Charge has not been collected on the parent parcel and shall
be paid with the final plat.
Development of North Creek Second Addition includes the extension of 8-inch watermain
within the subdivision. Watermain to serve the lots within North Creek Second Addition will
be extended from the existing 8-inch watermain stub at the north boundary of the plat in
Encina Path.
The remainder of the lateral watermain access charge for the portion of 12-inch watermain
within Pilot Knob Road right-of-way shall be paid with the final plat
An overhead electric transmission line and poles are located along the east side of Pilot Knob
Road on the parent parcel servicing the previous house and farmstead. The Developer is
required to remove the poles and place the utilities underground with the final plat,

consistent with the City’s Public Ways and Property Ordinance. A security will be required
with the final plat to ensure proper removal of poles and placement of utilities underground.
North Creek is located within subdistricts NC-18 and NC-20 of the North Creek stormwater
district as identified in the City’s Water Resources Management Plan.
Stormwater within North Creek Second Addition is directed east into the existing stormwater
management basin constructed with North Creek. The basin will provide water quality
treatment, volume and rate control of the stormwater runoff generated from the North Creek
Second Addition plat. The stormwater basin design is consistent with City requirements. The
stormwater basin discharges to Tributary No.1 to North Creek, which is east of the preliminary
plat.
The development of North Creek Second Addition includes lots adjacent to the VRWJPO
principal connector North Creek. The 100-yr Flood elevation as determined by the City’s
stormwater model will be contained outside of the plat everywhere possible. Natural Area
signs will be placed along easement lines impacted by the 100-yr Flood elevations. A security
will be required with the final plat to ensure proper installation of signs. Final locations will be
identified in the field.
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.
North Creek Second Addition 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.
Development of North Creek Second Addition 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 existing
public stormwater management basin located east of the development. Runoff is conveyed
from rear yard lots to the VRWJPO principal connector North Creek.
Draintile construction is required in areas of non-granular soils within North Creek Second
Addition for the street sub-cuts and lots. Any additional draintile construction, including
NNOORRTTHH CCRREEEEKK SSEECCOONNDD AADDDDIITTIIOONN –– PPRREELLIIMMIINNAARRYY PPLLAATT

PPAAGGEE 55 OOFF 66
perimeter draintile required for building footings, which is deemed necessary during
construction shall be the Developer’s responsibility to install and finance.
The Trunk Storm Sewer Area Charge has not been collected on the parent parcels and shall be
paid with the North Creek Second Addition final plat.
Final locations and sizes of all storm sewer facilities will be reviewed by City staff with the final
construction plans.
A portion of the North Creek Second Addition preliminary plat is shown on the Flood
Insurance Rate Map (FIRM #27037C0208E effective 12/2/2011) as 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 remainder of
the plat is shown on the Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) as Zone X by the Federal
Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).
The wetland delineation for this site was approved on 4/11/2018 and the delineation was
completed by Kjolhaug Environmental Services. No wetland impacts are proposed with the
development. All wetlands/waterways and required buffers will be placed in an outlot
dedicated to the city. The waterway is identified as a Principal Connector and requires a buffer
width 100-foot average, 65-foot minimum measured from the edge of the meander belt of
the river. Buffers must be shown on the plans prior to final plat. The Developer will be
responsible for the installation of the required Natural Area signs. Final locations will be
identified in the field.
A tree preservation plan has been submitted. The tree plan indicates there are 168 trees on
site; however nearly all of the total trees proposed to be saved are within the Pilot Knob Road
ROW or within the adjacent city-owned outlot. Prior to City Council consideration of the
preliminary plat, the plan must be updated to remove the offsite trees from the inventory and
revise the numbers of the total trees on site, to be saved, and to be removed. The tree
preservation plan will need to be updated to indicate the trees that will be removed on the
plan drawing. The plan also needs to include a temporary tree protection fence detail as well
as identify the placement of tree protection fencing on the plan drawing.
All “save” trees that are damaged or removed will require replacement at a ratio of 2:1 as per
the Lakeville Subdivision Ordinance. Prior to any removals the tree protection fence line must
be staked and reviewed by City Staff.
