INTRODUCTION
RADS Land Company has made application to re-guide property from Rural Residential to
Medium Density Residential, and to extend Metropolitan Urban Service Area (MUSA) to
that same property. Additionally, they have requested that the property be rezoned from
Agricultural Preservation (AG) Zone to Medium Density Residential (R2) Zone.
Please refer to Sections 11.22 and 11.32 ofthe City Code for the regulations ofthe AG and
R2 zones.
The property is located east ofCSAH 83 and north of Valley View Road extended. The
property is surrounded on 3 sigel) by property owned by the Shakopee Mdewankanton
Sioux Community (SMSC). The remaining property line is bounded by CSAH 83. The
property is 38.25 acres in size.
Comments on the applications have been received from Shakopee Public Utilities (SPUC),
Time Warner Cable, and the Fire Inspector. Their comments are as follows:
. SPUC commented that it will require the extension ofwatermains form the west
and north to serve this parcel;
. Time Warner commented that any adjustment or relocation of existing facilities
will be subject to reimbursement to Time Warner and is subject to scheduling of
work requested; and
. The Fire Inspector provided comments attached as Exhibit B. These comments
address, among other issues, the State Fire Code requirements for fire access based
on the number of units within a project. The applicant has not yet provided
information regarding the number of units proposed.
The City's Comprehensive Plan sets basic policies to guide the development ofthe City. The
purpose of designating different areas for residential, commercial, and industrial land uses is
to promote the location of compatible land uses, as well as to prevent incompatible land uses
from being located in close proximity to one another. The Zoning Ordinance is one of the
legal means by which the City implements the Comprehensive Plan. Under Minnesota
statute, zoning is to conform with a city's comprehensive plan.
The adopted Comprehensive Plan guides this property for Rural Residential development.
The draft Comprehensive Plan, that has been submitted to the Metropolitan Council for
review, but not formally adopted, guides the property for single family residential
development. The applicant is requesting that this property be guided instead for medium
density residential development in order to allow the construction of a townhome
community.
In April 2004, the City Council adopted as its No.1 goal to "manage the City's growth".
The primary action step toward meeting this goal was to "identify and implement
additional mechanisms to limit and constrain development so that long range planning can
take place."
The City Council has initiated a strategic planning effort. Discussions have been held
indicating that it may be preferable to consider action to amend the Comprehensive Plan
once the strategic planning effort is well underway. With respect to applications like this,
it is somewhat difficult for staff to formulate specific recommendations on such requests
absent further direction relating to the City's stated goals and conclusion of the strategic
planning effort.
Sanitary sewer service to the subject site would have to be accomplished through the
extension of a trunk gravity line along CSAH 83 or construction of a temporary lift station.
The extension of the trunk line would provide capacity to serve the subject site, the
majority of the proposed Park Meadows East plat on the west side ofCSAH 83, and
properties south of Valley View Road upon development. It is the City's policy to fully
fund the construction oftrunk sanitary sewer extensions.
The SMSC has title to the property on the east side of CSAH 83 between Church Addition
and the subject site. The SMSC and the County have reached an agreement to dedicate
additional right-of-way along this corridor however the dedication has not yet occurred due
to the need for Congressional action regarding the SMSC property. Because no design
work has been done for this project, it is unclear if the agreed upon dedication will be
sufficient for the placement of utilities. Additional right-of-way and/or easements may be
necessary to construct a trunk sanitary sewer line along the east side of CSAH 83.
FINDINGS
The Zoning Ordinance does not specify criteria for granting a Comprehensive Plan Map
amendment, though reasonable criteria would be Criteria #1 -3 for Zoning Ordinance
amendments. Staffhas provided Criteria #1- 3, as well as draft fmdings for the
Commission's review and discussion.
Criteria #1: That the original Comprehensive Plan is in error;
Finding #1: The original Comprehensive Plan is not in error.
I
Criteria #2: That significant changes in community goals and policies have taken
place;
Finding #2: Significant changes in community goals and policies have not taken place.
Criteria #3: That significant changes in Citywide or neighborhood development '
patterns have occurred.
Finding #3: Significant changes have occurred in neighborhood development patterns.
Specifically, since adoption of the 2000 Comprehensive/Land Use Plan,
development has proceeded in the vicinity of the subject property.
The criteria required for the granting of a Zoning Ordinance Amendment are listed below
with proposed findings for the Commission's consideration.
Criteria #1 That the original Zoning Ordinance is in error;
Finding #1 The original zoning ordinance is not in error.
Criteria #2 That significant changes in community goals and policies have taken
place;
Finding #2 Significant changes in community goals and policies have not taken place.
Criteria #3 That significant changes in City-wide or neighborhood development
patterns have occurred; or
Finding #3 Zoning of the subject property to Medium Density Residential (R2) is not
consistent with the adopted Comprehensive Plan, but would be consistent
with the Comprehensive Plan if the requested revision is adopted by the
City Council and Metropolitan Council.
Criteria #4 That the comprehensive plan requires a different provision.
Finding #4 Zoning of the subject property to Medium Density Residential (R2) is not
consistent with the adopted Comprehensive Plan, but would be consistent
with the Comprehensive Plan if the requested revision is adopted by the
City Council and Metropolitan Council.
ALTERNATIVES
1. Recommend to the City Council the approval of the request to extend MUSA to the
subject property, to re-guide to medium density residential, and to rezone the same
property from Agricultural Preservation (AG) Zone to Medium Density Residential
(R2) Zone.
2. Recommend to the City Council the denial of the request to extend MUSA to the
balance of the subj ect property, to re-guide to single-family residential that portion
now guided rural residential, and to rezone the same property from Agricultural
Preservation (AG) Zone to Urban Residential (R-IB) Zone.
3. Continue the public hearing and request additional information from the applicant or
staff.
4. Close the public hearing, but table the matter and request additional information.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Because the current, adopted Comprehensive Plan guides the subject property for "rural
residential" use; because the draft Comprehensive Plan land use plan guides the property
for a different land use designation than the one requested and is not yet adopted; at this
time staffis not making a specific recommendation of approval of the request to extend
MUSA to the subject property, to re-guide to medium density residential, and to rezone the
same property from Agricultural Preservation (AG) Zone to Medium Density Residential
(R2) Zone.
ACTION REQUESTED
Offer and approve a motion to make a recommendation to the City Council consistent with
the Planning Commission's wishes.
