HORTON, INC. MINNESOTA AND TERRANCE HANSON FOR THE STOCKPILING OF CLEAN FILL ON THE HICKORY SHORES SOUTH SITE DISCUSSION: Introduction The purpose of this agenda item is to consider approving a Cooperative Agreement that would allow excess clean fill to be deposited on a proposed residential development site. Normally, a conditional use permit is required for fill over 400 cubic yards. This agreement would allow excess fill on two existing development sites, Welcome Avenue and Hickory Shores, to be deposited on a proposed development site known as Hickory Shores South. Hi StOry D.R. Horton has entered into a purchase agreement to develop an area of approximately 20 acres into single family residential lots (see Attachment #2), an area previously referred to as Golden Pond. D.R. Horton has also submitted a PUD and Preliminary Plat application to the city for possible approval in August. This proposed subdivision would connect Turner Drive between Maple Glen and Hickory Shores, which would also allow an important water connection to occur in that area (see Attachment #3). The city would like to see that connection made in 2013, if possible. D.R. Horton has indicated to the city that this development site could use approximately 20,000 cubic yards of fill. At the same time, the city has excess fill being generated from the Welcome Avenue project site, and D.R. Horton has excess fill on the Hickory Shores development site. Current Circumstances The city attorney advised staff that a possible approach to address the excess fill status on two approved project sites, as well as the fill needs of a proposed development site, is to have the City Council approve a Cooperative Agreement. The agreement would identify the responsibilities of three primary parties, including the City of Prior Lake, D.R. Horton, Inc. Minnesota, and Terrance Hanson (the property owner). The City Engineer is responsible for approving the plans and specifications of the fill removal and deposit process. All necessary permits must be obtained by D.R. Horton related to stormwater and erosion control. Conclusion There are some advantages to all parties in this Cooperative Agreement, including: 1. The city is expecting a contract credit for allowing Chard to deposit excess fill material at the proposed deposit site. 2. The city is assisting D.R. Horton to complete the Turner Drive and water connection between two existing subdivisions in 2013 by allowing fill to be deposited there without going through a more lengthy conditional use permit process. 3. D.R. Horton is able to remove excess soil on the active Hickory Shores site to their proposed Hickory Shores South site, and in the process, facilitate the development of walk out lots. ISSUES: If the city does not approve the Hickory Shores South PUD and Preliminary Plat, D.R. Horton must remove all deposited fill at the direction of either the city or the landowner. A financial assurance is part of the agreement to secure that step, if necessary. FINANCIAL This agreement will reduce the Welcome Avenue contract cost and it will be a IMPACT: financial advantage to D.R. Horton. ALTERNATIVES: 1. A motion and second to approve a resolution approving a Cooperative Agreement as proposed, or as amended by the City Council. 2. A motion and second to deny the resolution. 3. A motion and second to defer this item and provide staff with specific direction. RECOMMENDED Staff recommends Alternative #1 MOTION: ATTACHMENTS: 1. Cooperative Agreement � 2. Location Map 3.
