Prior Lake, MN 55372-1714 MEETING DATE: AGENDA #: PREPARED BY: DECEMBER 15, 2003 9E JANE KANSIER, PLANNING COORDINATOR AGENDA ITEM: CONSIDER APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION AMENDING THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN FOR PROPERTY LOCATED IN SECTIONS 4, 10, 11 AND 12, SPRING LAKE TOWNSmp (Case File #03-133) DISCUSSION: History: In October, 2003, the State of Minnesota approved an orderly annexation agreement between the City of Prior Lake and Spring Lake Township. This agreement established a schedule for annexation of approximately 3,000 total acres ofland located in Sections 4, 10, 11 and 12, Spring Lake Township. The first phase of this agreement was the 2003 annexation of a 0.23 acre parcel located at 2485 Spring Lake Road (Speiker property). This parcel was annexed immediately upon approval of the agreement, due to the fact that the parcel is serviced by City sewer and water. The second phase of the agreement, scheduled for annexation in 2004, includes approximately 380 acres ofland described as follows: . The property located on the south side of CSAH 21 and west of CSAH 87 in Section 12, Spring Lake Township (Bohnsack, Svoboda, and Prior Lake Blacktop property) . The property located directly south of Deerfield Development and The Ponds Park in Sections 11 and 12, Spring Lake Township (Radanke property); . The property located directly west of the City limits and east of Crystal Lake in Section 11, Spring Lake Township (Maple Acres, 17011-17127 Mushtown Road, and 17240-17300 Panama Avenue); . The properties located south of 170th Street, south and east of TH 13, and north and west of Crystal Lake and Rice Lake in Sections 10 and 11, Spring Lake Township; . The properties located immediately west of Northwood Oaks Estates and Hawk Ridge Road and east of Spring Lake Regional Park in Section 4, Spring Lake Township; The purpose of the proposed amendment is to include the newly annexed parcels on the City 2020 Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map and to provide 1:\03 files\03 comp amend\2003-2004 annexation areas\cc.[eQort.docl k www.clLyurpnorae.com Page 1 Phone 952.447.4230 / Fax 952.447.4245 a future land use designation for these properties. The proposed amendment designates the existing commercial property (Bohnsack, Svoboda, and Prior Lake Blacktop property) for Hospitality General Business (C-HG) uses. The remaining areas are to be designated for Low to Medium Density Residential (R-L/MD) uses. The Planning Commission reviewed this request at a public hearing on November 24,2003. The Commission voted to recommend approval of this Comprehensive Plan amendment on the basis that the proposed designation is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan goals and objectives, and with the designations of the adjacent property. A copy of the draft minutes of the Planning Commission meeting of November 24,2003, is attached to this report. In 2004 the City Council will adopt a resolution annexing these properties once sewer and water are within 150' of the boundary. The Minnesota Municipal Boundary Adjustment office will have 30 days to review and comment. The Council should be aware that an update to the 2020 Comprehensive Plan, including all of Prior Lake and the 3,000 acre annexation area is underway. This action is in accordance with the annexation agreement and will eliminate the need for this type of agenda item unless a change is desired to the Council approved Comprehensive Plan designation. Current Circumstances: The Scott County Comprehensive Plan designated the majority of this property for Urban Growth Expansion. On the Scott County Zoning Map, much of the property is zoned UER (Urban Expansion Reserve). According to the Scott County Zoning Ordinance, the UER District is intended "to preserve land in those areas of Scott County identified in its Comprehensive Plan for logical future extension of urban land uses served by public utilities. This zoning district is intended to preserve these areas of the County in very low rural development densities or clustered residential developments that may be compatibly integrated with future urban development. " The exceptions to the UER zoning are the existing, platted small-lot subdivisions. These areas are zoned RR-2 (Rural Residential Single Family) on the Scott County Zoning Map. The existing commercial property (Bohnsack, Svoboda, and Prior Lake Blacktop property) is designated for Commercial/Industrial uses on the Scott County Comprehensive Plan and is zoned 1-1 (Industrial). The Issues: The proposed amendment to the Comprehensive Plan includes this area on the City's Comprehensive Plan Map and designates the following areas for Low to Medium Density Residential uses: . The property located directly south of Deerfield Development and The Ponds Park in Sections 11 and 12, Spring Lake Township (Radanke property); 1:\03 files\03 comp amend\2003-2004 annexation areas\cc report.doc Page 2 . The property located directly west of the City limits and east of Crystal Lake in Section 11, Spring Lake Township (Maple Acres, 17011-17127 Mushtown Road, and 17240-17300 Panama Avenue); . The properties located south of 170th Street, south and east of TH 13, and north and west of Crystal Lake and Rice Lake in Sections 10 and 11, Spring Lake Township; . The properties located immediately west of Northwood Oaks Estates and Hawk Ridge Road and east of Spring Lake Regional Park in Section 4, Spring Lake Township; . The property located at 2485 Spring Lake Road SW (Speiker property). The Comprehensive Plan goals and objectives, which are applicable to this request, are as follows: GOAL: SUITABLE HOUSING AND ENVIRONMENT: Encourage the development of suitable housing in a desirable environment. OBJECTIVE No.1: Provide opportunities for a variety of affordable high quality housing. OBJECTIVE No.2: Maintain a choice of and encourage development of quality residential environments. OBJECTIVE No.3: Provide suitable passive open space for the preservation of the natural environment and the enjoyment of residents. The proposed designation is consistent with the above goals and objectives. This designation is also consistent with the Land Use Plan designation of the adjacent properties already located within the City. The development of much of this area will be further restricted by the Shore land District around Crystal Lake and Rice Lake. Both of these lakes are classified as Natural Development lakes. The City Zoning Ordinance requires a minimum lot area of 20,000 square feet for nonriparian lots and 40,000 square feet for riparian lots served by municipal sewer. Finally, the Prior Lake-Spring Lake Watershed District has noted higher density development in this area will potentially impact peak water levels on Prior Lake. In order to minimize this impact, lower densities are necessary. The designation proposed for the existing commercial area is C-HG (Hospitality General Business). This designation is consistent with the existing development, and with the designation of the adjacent property to the south. It is also consistent with the following goals and objectives in the Comprehensive Plan: GOAL: ECONOMIC VITALITY: Pursue a prudent use of available resources and the optimum functioning of economic systems. OBJECTIVE No.1: Determine and strive for a balance of commerce, industry, and population. 1:\03 files\03 comp amend\2003-2004 annexation areas\cc report. doc Page 3 FISCAL IMPACT: ALTERNATIVES: RECOMMENDED MOTION: REVIEWED BY: OBJECTIVE No.2: Encourage a diversified economic base and a broad range of employment opportunities. OBJECTIVE No.3: Promote sound land use. OBJECTIVE No.4: Maintain high standards in the promotion and development of commerce and industry. Conclusion: The proposed Comprehensive Plan designation is consistent with the goals and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan. Therefore, the Planning Commission and the staff recommend approval of this request. Budget Impact: There is no direct budget impact involved in this request. The City Council has three alternatives: 1. Adopt a resolution amending the Comprehensive Plan to include this area and designate it as R-L/MD and C-HG. 2. Continue the review for specific information or reasons per City Council discussion. 3. Find the Comprehensive Plan amendment inconsistent with the purpose and intent of the Comprehensive Plan and deny the request. In this case staff should be directed to prepare a resolution with findings of fact. The staff recommends Alternative #1. The following motion is required: 1. A motion and second to adopt a resolution approving the Comprehensive Plan Amendment to designate the 2003 and 2004 Orderly Annexation areas as Low to Medium Density Residential (R-L/MD) and Hospitality General Business C-HG) is required. 1:\03 files\03 comp amend\2003-2004 annexation areas\cc report. doc Page 4 16200 Eagle Creek Avenue S.E.

The Prior Lake- Spring Lake Watershed District (District) is very interested in the proposed uses for lands in the annexation areas, as this is closely related to the District's efforts to manage water volumes and address high water levels on Prior Lake. During the recently completed Prior Lake Outlet Channel and Lake Volume Management Study, the District used computer modeling to examine the effects of Prior Lake outlet system improvements, volume management efforts, and future development scenarios on the peak water levels of Prior Lake and the duration of lake levels above 904.0, the ordinary high water level for the lake. The District included the following two development scenarios in its analyses: . . "High Density Residential" development, which was based on the extension of municipal services to the watershed southwest of Spring Lake and a development density qf approximately 4 units per acre. . "Medium Density Residential" development, which reflected a more moderate density based on approximately Yz acre lots. These development scenarios were compared to the lake level conditions in 1999, a wet year. The study found that even with the completion of the planned outlet channel improvements and upstream storage increases, the density of development will impact the peak water level, duration over 904.0 and flooding, as indicated in the table below. Scenario Peak Lake Level Lake Level Homes With Low (feet) Above 904.0 Floors Below Peak (days) Water Level 1999, Existing Land Use (Current 904.9 30 20 Conditions) 2020, High Density Residential (4 905.2-905.4* 33-36* 23-24* units/acre) , 2020, Medium Density 905.0-905.2* 29-33* 22-23* Residential (approx. Yz acre lots) . *Range depends on amount of upstream storage that is accomplished through wetland restoration, additional ponding (beyond current rule and ordinance requirements), and best management practices. 15815 FRANKLIN TRAIL S.E. · PRIOR LA.I<:E. MN 55372 Based on this information, the District encourages the City to consider alternative zoning options for the annexation areas that would lower the post-development density below the 3.6 units per acre net density allowed by the R-L/MD designation. Another option is to identify and protect specific areas for open space and water storage, which would help to alleviate runoff concerns from adjacent development and effectively lower the net development density. Note that the District has funding for acquisition and restoration of storage areas within the watershed, and would be interested in cooperating with the City in identifying and protecting/acquiring key areas. A lower development density and increased water storage, combined with the planned outlet and channel improvements, would minimize future increases in the peak elevation of Prior Lake as well as the frequency and duration of a Prior Lake elevation of 904.0 or above. This, in turn, would help avoid further impacts to water quality, recreation, and shoreland flooding. Again, thank you for the opportunity to comment on the proposed Comprehensive Plan Amendment, and for the City's continued partnership with the District in efforts to enhance the Prior Lake Outlet Channel and address lake level issues on Prior Lake. If you have any questions about these comments or the Prior Lake Outlet Channel and Lake Volume Management Study, please feel free to give me a call at 952-447-4166. sUS.i.nc~.~elY' .

I mailed in the comment sheet that accompanied the notice to me. Portions of the pieces near Rice and Crystal Lakes are within a designated shoreland district (1000 feet from the OHWL). The proposed R-LjMD is compatible with the Natural Environment shoreland zoning. Any future development within the shoreland areas must meet the standards in the city's shoreland ordinance, and the official zoning map should be amended to reflect the shoreland district. The same holds true for the piece west of Prior Lake (west of Northwood Road), if any of it is withn 1000' of Prior Lake.
