No. 6179 CITY OF SHAKOPEE 1'( ~I Memorandum CASE NO.: 05-003 TO: Mayor and City Council Mark McNeill, City Administrator FROM: Julie Klima, Planner II SUBJECT: Comprehensive Plan Amendment to Reguide Property from Rural Residential to Medium Density Residential, Extend MUSA, and Rezone Property from Agricultural Preservation (AG) Zone to Medium Density Residential (R2) Zone MEETING DATE: February 1, 2005 REVIEW PERIOD: November 24, 2004 - March 24, 2005 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 (MUS A) to the same property. Additionally, they have requested that the property be rezoned from Agricultural Preservation (AG) Zone to Medium Density Residential (R2) Zone. DISCUSSION The property is approximately 40 acres in size and is located east of County Road 83 and north of Valley View Road extended. (please see Exhibit A). The entire property is currently guided for Rural Residential development in the adopted Comprehensive Plan. The draft Comprehensive Plan update identifies this property for single family residential development. The draft Comprehensive Plan update has been approved by the City Council but has not yet received approval from the Metropolitan Council. Review of this item was deferred at the applicant's request, at least in part to see what came of the Council discussion about growth management at its workshop of January 25, 2005. Two factors relevant to this property were discussed at that workshop. On the one hand, in order to develop a trunk: sanitary sewer would need to be extended down CR 83 from the north. Development that would be dependent on this sewer extension did not appear to be the top priority for Council. On the other hand, the subject property is adjacent to SMSC-owned lands. ALTERNATIVES 1. Approve Resolution No. 6179, a resolution denying the request to extend MUSA to the subject property, to re-guide the site from rural residential to medium density residential, and to rezone the site from Agricultural Preservation (AG) zone to Medium Density Residential (R2) zone. 2. Approve the request to extend MUSA to the subject property and direct staff to prepare the appropriate resolution. 3. Approve the request to reguide the property from rural residential to medium density residential and direct staff to prepare the appropriate resolution. 4. Approve the request to rezone the property to Medium Density Residential (R2) Zone from Agricultural Preservation (AG) Zone and direct staffto prepare the appropriate ordinance. 5. Table the matter and request additional information from the applicant and/or staff. PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION The Planning Commission reviewed this application at its January 6,2005 meeting. The Commission voted unanimously to deny the extension of MUS A to the site, to reguide the property from rural residential to medium density residential, and to rezone the property from Agricultural Preservation (AG) Zone to Medium Density Residential (R2) Zone. ACTION REQUESTED Offer a motion to approve Resolution No. 6179, a resolution denying the request to extend MUSA to the subject property, to reguide the property from rural residential to medium density residential, and to rezone the property from Agricultural Preservation (AG) to Medium Density Residential (R2) and move its adoption. g:\cc\2005\02-0 1 \cmpplnrezrads05003 .doc RESOLUTION NO. 6179 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF SHAKOPEE DENYING A REQUEST TO AMEND THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN TO REGUIDE CERTAIN PROPERTY FOR MEDIUM DENSITY RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT FROM RURAL RESIDNETIAL DEVELOPMENT AND TO EXTEND MUSA TO THE PROPERTY AND A REQUEST TO REZONE PROPERTY FROM AGRICULTURAL PRESERVATION (AG) TO MEDIUM DENSITY RESIDENTIAL (R2) WHEREAS, RADS Land Company, applicant, and property owner, has requested the guiding of property for medium density residential development and an extension of the MUSA boundary to the property, and the rezoning of property from Agricultural Preservation (AG) to Medium Density Residential (R2); and WHEREAS, the subject property is legally described as: The Southwest Quarter of the Southeast Quarter Section 16, Township 115, Range 22, Scott County, Minnesota; and WHEREAS, notices were duly sent and posted, and a public hearing was held before the Planning Commission on January 6,2005, at which time all persons present were given an opportunity to be heard; and WHEREAS, the City Council heard the matter at its meeting on February 1, 2005; and NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council ofthe City of Shako pee hereby adopts the following findings of facts relative to the above-named requests: Finding No.1: The Comprehensive Plan is not in error.

Shakol"ee-P-lanning Commissiolr-'<~" FROM: Julie Klima, Planner II SUBJECT: Comprehensive Plan Amendment to Reguide Property from Rural Residential to Medium Density Residential, Extend MUSA, and Rezone Property from Agricultural Preservation (AG) Zone to Medium Density Residential (R2) Zone MEETING DATE: January 6,2005 REVIEW PERIOD: November 24, 2004 - March'24, 2005 Site Information Applicant: RADS Land Company Property Owner: RADS Land Company Location: East ofCSAH 83 and North of Valley View Road extended Adjacent Zoning: North: SMSC Property South: SMSC Property East: SMSC Property West: Urban Residential (R-IB) Zone Acreage: 38.25 Acres MUSA: The property is NOT within the MUSA boundary. 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 of the City Code for the regulations of the AG and R2 zones. The property is located east ofCSAH 83 and north of Valley View Road extended. The property is surrounded on 3 sides 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: ..';SPtfe~trIfi1ented that 'itwillcre'qt1ite the exten.sion. ofwatermains form the west and north to serve this parcel; . Time Wamer 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 of the 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 ofthe 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 """,.' ,." '." ;,"~ aoditihnaftfght:6f-Wayalongthiscorrido! however the dedicatiol1-has not yet 'ot'CttI'fat'due"'~'<-""';"";"""'''''' . ' to the need for Congressional action regarding the SMSC property. Becauseno 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 ofCSAH 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 findings 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. 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'ih~'~-=e--ofnptehensivePtarr;13tttcwouldbeconsistent"' ~::'""-~i'~.,: :;- , 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 subject 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-1B) 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 staff is not making a specific recommendation of approval ofthe 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'swishes. g: \boaa-pc\2005\O 1-06\cmpplnrezaccnotermann. doc Shakopee _ Location Maps Page 1 of 1 CKHIB/1 A AG ~..
