DEVEOPMENT DIRECTOR PRESENTED BY: DAN ROGNESS AGENDA ITEM: CONCEPT PLAN DISCUSSION – AMENDING THE SUMMIT PRE- SERVE SUB-AREA D OF THE PLANNED USE DISTRICT IN THE 2030 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN TO INCLUDE 100% MEDIUM DEN- SITY RESIDENTIAL DISCUSSION: Introduction The purpose of this agenda item is to review a conceptual change to the Summit Preserve Planned Use District (Sub-Area D) that would replace the existing guidelines of 25% Commercial / 75% Medium Density Resi- dential with 100% Medium Density Residential. History The Planning Commission and City Council both reviewed and approved a major 2030 Comprehensive Plan amendment in 2013/2014 along the County Highway 42 corridor. Much vacant land was amended to a new land use classification called “Planned Use”. This designation was fur- ther subdivided into Sub-Areas A – E; each sub-area having separately designated land uses as percentages of the total acreages. This change would allow more flexibility by developers to decide where those land uses would best be located within each sub-area. Current Circumstances Sub-Area D, also known as Summit Preserve, has a Planned Use des- ignation as follows: • 49 gross acres • 34 net acres (70% of gross) • 75% Medium Density Residential • 25% Commercial • Residential Density – minimum of 4.1 units per net acre (105 housing units) The current owner of the 49-acre Summit Preserve area would like to get input on amending the Comprehensive Plan to allow 100% Medium Res- idential land use. A combination of townhomes, twin-homes and villas are likely to be proposed within a PUD. Conclusion City staff will provide more information at the meeting. 2 ISSUES: What support is there to remove approximately 8 acres of commercial development from the northeast corner of Highways 18 and 42? In ad- dition to market information provided by the property owner (Attachments 3 and 4), staff will help the Commissioners evaluate that question. Staff may get EDA input as well since this relates to economic development.

In marketing we have reached out to retail developers and brokers representing the expanding concepts in the Twin Cities with little interest due to a number of reasons as we have discussed. Those reasons include the following: 1. Strong retail nodes in Shakopee and at CR 42/Hwy 13 with established anchors in place 2. Access to the hard corner of CR 42 and CR 18 has great visibility but limited or no access. 3. competing sites along CR 42 that are vacant and even have offsite improvements completed 4. Limited future residential growth in the area pushing increased demographics Retailers are looking for high density counts, good access, and strong traffic counts. The demand we have seen from commercial groups is potential once the residential has been built. By increasing the density or converting all to residential could help the other undeveloped parcels be developed or bring in new commercial users.
