HORST W. GRASER, DIRECTOR OF PLANNING
CONSIDER PETITION BY WENSMANN REALTY TO APPROVE
ORDINANCE 94-03 AND RESOLUTION 94-14 TO AMEND THE
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.
APRIL 4, 1994
This item was continued from March 21, 1994, via request of the
developer. The purpose of the continuation was to provide an
opportunity for the full Council to vote on the items.
The developer has requested a residential development for the
Brandt farm at the intersection of County Road 42 and 83. The
implementation plan requires a change in the Comprehensive Plan
and Zoning Ordinance. The principle issues have revolved around
a development strategy and policy plan for County Road 42,
together with other city-wide opportunities.
The developer was represented by Tim Ekkila of Westwood
Planning and Engineering. He also requested the Council to give
direction to the developer in the event the petition is denied. The
Council received a complete application in their March 21, 1994,
agenda packet, please refer to this packet for details. The review
period for these petitions end April 22, 1994. The last regularly
scheduled Council meeting, at which time a decision could be
made, is April 18, 1994.
Deny the Comprehensive Plan Amendment and direct Staff
to prepare a resolution incorporating the facts and findings.
Deny the rezoning application since it would be inconsistent
with the comprehensive plan and direct Staff to prepare a
resolution incorporating facts and findings.
Table any action on the petition.
Approve the Comprehensive Plan Ordinance Amendments
by adopting Resolution 94-14 and Ordinance 94-03 which
are attached to thiS packet for your review.
Action will be based on Council discussion.

COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT TO CHANGE THE BRANDT FARM FROM

the Prior Lake Planning Commission held a public heating to consider an
amendment to the Prior Lake Comprehensive Plan on Thursday, Sanuary 6, 1994;
and
that notice of the heating on said motion has been duly published 'and posted in
accordance with the applicable Minnesota Statutes; and
the Planning Commission recommends to City Council to amend the
Comprehensive Plan of the Brandt farm, from industrial to low density
residential, based on the following facts and findings presented on December 16,
1993, as follows:
if approved the amendment will produce a maximum of 140 housing units; and
sewer is of capacity to accommodate the land use change. Water is available to
the site; and
the site is not part of a regional park system; and
based on previous Council action, ~e plan amendment is consistent with other
land use changes which were from industrial to residential; and
the City has in place ntup and other policy standards that will protect wetlands
and natural features; and
the site is within the urban service area; and
the draft lransportation element of the Comprehensive Plan designates Pike Lake
Trail a major collector and a minor collector corridor running parallel directly
south to County Road 42. Any planned action or development on the site, not
accounting for these two collectors, is inconsistent with Prior Lake's long range
transportation planning effort; and
in 1990, the Council adopted an industrial study which was to be incorporated
into the 2010 Plan. The subject site is a component of that industrial policy
directive. The Council policy toward the industrial designated land use southeast
of intersection 42 and 21, was to change it to residential. It has so far been
implemented through the rezoning of Carriage Hills and Leo Vlerling; and

WHEREAS,
WHEREAS,
WHEREAS,
WHEREAS,
WHEREAS,
WHEREAS,
WHEREAS,
the short and long range industrial strategies of the Council were positioned on
the 320 acre Vierlin$ site north of CoUnty Road 42 and adjacent to County Road
21 in the southeast comer of the community; and
commercial opportunities north of the lake have never been formally discussed.
Although the concept of neighborhood planned commercial is one that has been
incorporated in the draft 2010 plan; and
the 40 acre subject site is the remnant piece of industrial after 200 acres have
been rezoned to agricultural and residential; and
the subject site based on the physiographical analysis done by the applicant is
considerable more conclusive to the more site responsive residential use; and
Pike Lake Trail has also been identified as a major collector in the draft
transportation plan. A minor collector is proposed for the anticipated land uses
south and west of the subject site; and
although the Vierling 120 acres have been removed from the urban service area,
it is prudent to look as potential land use relationship issues; and
not one single resident of Prior Lake has objected to the application-.-
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED, BY THE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL OF
PRIOR LAKE, MINNESOTA, THAT THE COMPREHENSIVE LAND USE PLAN BE
AMENDED FROM INDUSTRIAL TO RESIDENTIAL FOR THE NEI/4 OF THE NWl/4 OF
SECTION 26.
Passed and adopted this 21st day of March, 1994.
