HomeMy WebLinkAbout10E2 - Marschall Annexation CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT 16200 Eagle Creek Avenue S.E. Prior Lake, MN 55372-1714 MEETING DATE: AGENDA #: PREPARED BY: OCTOBER 18, 2004 10 E2 JANE KANSIER, PLANNING DIRECTOR AGENDA ITEM: CONSIDER APPROVAL OF A JOINT RESOLUTION FOR ORDERLY ANNEXATION BETWEEN THE CITY OF PRIOR LAKE AND SPRING LAKE TOWNSHIP PURSUANT TO MINNESOTA STATUTES 414.0325, ANNEXING 100 ACRES COMMONLY KNOWN AS THE MARSCHALL PROPERTY DISCUSSION: Historv: Tollefson Development, on behalf of Roy and Danita Marschall, has filed a request to annex a total of 100 acres of land located in Spring Lake Township. The purpose of the annexation is to allow the future development of this property on City services. Current Circumstances: The property in question is located within the Spring Lake Orderly Annexation Area. Under Minnesota Statutes, a request for annexation may be initiated by resolution of either the Township Board or the City Council, or by joint resolution of both bodies. The property owners have met with the Spring Lake Township Board to discuss this request. The Township Board approved and signed a joint resolution on July 8, 2004 (see attached). The Board did not attach any conditions to the resolution. The property owners are now requesting that the City Council sign the joint resolution and forward it to the Minnesota Office of Boundary Adjustment. ISSUES: Minnesota Statute 414.0325 lists the criteria to be used to determine if an area should be annexed. This criteria includes: (a) the subject area is now or is about to become urban or suburban in character and that the annexing municipality is capable of providing the services required by the area within a reasonable time; or (b) the existing township form of government is not adequate to protect the public health, safety, and welfare; or (c) annexation would be in the best interests of the subject area. In this case, the area will be adjacent to the City limits along its east boundary, once the Theis property (Agenda Item 10 F 2) is annexed. Municipal sewer and water will be available to serve this site upon development of the adjacent property. If both the City and the Township agree to the joint resolution, the resolution is forwarded to the Minnesota Office of Boundary Adjustment for review. If we are unable to reach agreement on the joint resolution, the City could annex the property by ordinance. This method of annexation does not require approval of the Township but does require a public hearing by the www.cityofpriorlake.com 1:\04 files\04 annex\marschall\annexation cc fJlbfftsne 952.447.4230 / Fax 952.447.4245 Page I CONCLUSION: FISCAL IMPACT: ALTERNATIVES: RECOMMENDED MOTION: REVIEWED BY: Office of Boundary Adjustment. This method is not as cooperative in nature to the joint resolution process. Under the provisions of the Orderly Annexation Agreement with Spring Lake, property tax phasing will be applied to properties scheduled for annexation between 2004 and 2007. Since the property in question was not scheduled for annexation until 2010, this tax phasing will not be applied. Pursuant to Section 6.7 of the Orderly Annexation Agreement, the City shall reimburse the Township for lost property tax revenue when the property owner petitions for annexation. The Township's share of taxes for this property, payable in 2004, is $283.95. A pass-through fee of two times this amount will be paid to the City as part of the Development Contract when this property is subdivided. The City will then forward this amount to the Township. Upon annexation, this property will automatically be zoned R-1. A portion of this property is also located within 1,000 feet of Campbell Lake, so the provisions of the Shoreland District will also apply. The City is also in the process of updating the Comprehensive Plan to include the entire Orderly Annexation Area. It must also be noted that services are not currently available to this property. Services to this property will be dependent on the development of the property to the east, and the connection of the sewer in CSAH 82 to the sewer in the Arcon Development. Approval of the joint resolution is the most cooperative method of annexation for this property. Development of the property should occur within the City limits, once sewer and water service are available to serve this site. Budaet ImDact: Approval of the annexation will allow the development of the property within the City limits, which will increase the City tax base. The City Council has three alternatives: 1. Approve the Joint Resolution as submitted. 2. Approve the Joint Resolution with modifications. 3. Authorize further examination of the annexation by ordinance process. The staff recommends adoption of Alternative #1. A motion and second to approve the Joint Resolution as submitted is required. The fullYJ . xecuted document will be forwarded to the Minnesota Office of Bounda ;Adjustment for their 30-day review and comment period. i 1:\04 files\04 annex\marschall\annexation cc rpt.doc Page 2 JOINT RESOLUTION CITY OF PRIOR LAKE AND SPRING LAKE TOWNSHIP A RESOLUTION ANNEXING PROPERTY FROM SPRING LAKE TOWNSHIP INTO THE CITY OF PRIOR LAKE (DOCKET #OA-967) CITY OF PRIOR LAKE RESOLUTION NO.

September 17,2004 City of Prior Lake Attention: Danette Moore, Planning Coordinator 16200 Eagle Creek Avenue S.E. Prior Lake, MN 55372-1714 Dear Ms. Moore: Tollefson Development, Inc. is submitting the annexation applications for the Douglas R. Thies and Roy H. and Danita M. Marschall properties. Spring Lake Township has already approved and delivered to city hall copies of their approving resolutions. We have included two AL T A surveys illustrating the following number of acres for both properties: . Douglas R. Thies: 148.6793 acres . Roy H. and Danita M. Marschall: 100.9063 acres We have also included payment reflective of the fees set fourth by city code and state statues. Weare in the process of developing the adjacent properties to the east: Schiltz and Honey's Back 40. The preliminary plats will be submitted in September and October 2004 respectfully. Both properties have been annexed. All of these properties are part of the orderly annexation area pursuant to the Agreement by way of joint city/township resolution. We intend on working with the city in developing a master plan community that meets the city's expectations under city code. This area is urban and suburban in character and is poised for future residential development. We feel it is important to move forward with annexation now in order to make this a viable project for the future of Prior Lake. Weare making a significant investment to get temporary sewer capacity to this area via Schiltz and Honey's Back 40. Part of Theis can be served with utilities and further served by the end of 2005 when Hwy 82 is completed. This is a benefit and cost savings for the city and are in need to capture that investment knowing we have limited capacity until Hwy 82' s completion. Therefore, we need to 172711<enyon Ave., Suite #103 · Lakeville, MN 55044 · Phone (952) 435-1010. FAX (952) 435-1020 Email -info@tdi-mn.com www.tdi-mn.com capture current capacity on a "first-come-fust serve basis" to be in a position to develop the balance of the acreage. With over 25 years of experience in the development business, we have the capabilities of delivering an extremely well thought out plan for the city of Prior Lake both on a temporary and long-term basis. If you should have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us. Please let me know when this will be considered for approval. Thank you for your time and consideration in this matter.
