CITY OP LAKEVILLE COUNCIL MEETING OCTOBER 16, 2006 PAGE 4 Planning Director Daryl Morey presented the planning report for Fieldstone. Creek 2"a Addition. He explained that the preliminary. plat consists of 11 lots for 84 townhome units and two outlots on 15.19 acres of land at the southwest corner of Dodd Boulevard and Pilot Knob Road. The final plat includes three lots for 24 townhome units and three outlots. The property is zoned RM-1, Medium Density Residential District, and this plat meets the performance standards of the RM-1 District. A portion of the property is within the Shoreland Overlay District, and the plat meets the requirements for impervious surface coverage. The Fieldstone Creek development met the park .dedication requirement by deeding a 10.6 acre parcel to the City with the first addition final plat. Mr. Morey explained that the City's traffic consultant, SRF Consulting Group, has .prepared a traffic study for this development and addressed a concern that there could be a considerable level of "cut through" traffic as a result of possible future access restrictions in the Pilot Knob Road corridor at either Dodd Boulevard or 165th Street. The SRF traffic study has determined that the cut through traffic impact to this development would be minimal. The study further recommended parking restrictions on .the east side of Elm Creek Lane and the construction of a sidewalk on the east side of Elm Creek lane. Mr. Morey stated the developer has incorporated the recommendations of the traffic consultant into the preliminary and final plat. 06.86 Motion was made and seconded to approve Resolution No. 06-167 approving the preliminary and final plat of Fieldstone Creek 2~d Addition. .Roll call was taken on the motion. Ayes, .unanimous. ITEM 9 Planning Consultant Dan Licht presented the planning actions associated with the City of Lakeville third sheet ice arena project. The City of Lakeville, in conjunction with ISD 194, is proposing to construct a 42,000 square foot ice arena on land located north of 215th Street (CSAH 70) and east of Holyoke Avenue. Applications that must be considered for the proposed arena development .include an amendment to the Zoning Ordinance to establish a P-OS, Public-Open Space zoning district, rezoning of the subject site to P-OS District, and a conditional use permit to allow the ice arena on property zoned P-OS District. • CITY OF LAKEVILLE COUNCIL .MEETING OCTOBER Y6, 2006 PAGE 5 Mr. Licht explained that the )uly 2000 updated zoning ordinance and map identified City owned parks and other properties. as being zoned P-OS, Public-Open Space District. However, no such district is established. by the Zoning Ordinance text. The proposed P-OS District would be established to allow for public and quasi-public uses in generally the same manner as allowed in other zoning districts established by the City. Permitted uses. allowed by the P-OS District include City park facilities and City government administration, public safety, utility and maintenance buildings. Indoor recreation centers and arenas with a seating capacity of greater than 300 would be allowed conditional uses. The P-OS District requires that public properties and buildings be designed to the highest aesthetic standard as a model for the private sector. However, establishment of a P-OS District also necessitates amendments be made to the zoning ordinance to establish a maximum building height for structures within the P-OS District of three stories or 35 feet, which is consistent with most residential and commercial . zoning districts. Primary access to the ice arena site is from 215t" Street (CSAH 70) at Highview Avenue. Mr. Licht stated Dakota County has. approved • construction of right and left turn lanes on 215t" Street at Highview Avenue for the arena access. Secondary access would be provided via a driveway extension north through the McGuire Middle School athletic fields to the school parking lots and access to Holyoke Avenue. Staff is recommending the installation of a gate at this driveway entrance. to prevent through traffic during athletic events at the school fields. Mr. Licht: stated the site plan meets all area and setback requirements for the proposed P-OS District. On behalf of the City Council, Mayor. Johnson thanked the City staff and School District administration staff for their joint cooperation in bringing this projectto fruition. Council Member Luick recommended that staff examine the possible installation of a gate at the north driveway- entrance near McGuire Middle School, in addition to the gate at the entrance to the arena parking lot. Mr. Mielke expressed his appreciation to ISD 194 officials, as well as Finance Director Dennis Feller, for their efforts in this project. He pointed out that while an attempt was made to locate this facility as close to Ames Arenas. as possible. However, .due to land prices and other issues, this location was deemed to be acceptable. The three sheets of ice will be operated. under one entity under. the leadership of Lakeville Arenas.
