CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
MEETING DATE: JANUARY 16, 2018
AGENDA #: 5G
PREPARED BY: JEFF MATZKE, PLANNER
PRESENTED BY: JEFF MATZKE
AGENDA ITEM:
CONSIDER APPROVAL OF RESOLUTION APPROVING A MINOR AMEND-
MENT TO THE FINAL PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT (PUD) PLAN KNOWN
AS JEFFERS POND AND A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING EXECUTION OF
AN ENCROACHMENT AGREEMENT
DISCUSSION: Introduction
School District 719 has applied for approval of an amendment to the Planned Unit
Development (PUD) known as Jeffers Pond on property located west of CSAH
21, directly north of Jeffers Pass, at 14800 Jeffers Pass NW .
History
The original Planned Unit Development Plan for Jeffers Pond was approved in
2005. Since that time, nearly all the residential neighborhoods have been devel-
oped, as well as the streets, public park/trail system, the elementary school and
the fire station. Two outlots remain undeveloped, including:
• Outlot B – 9.3 acres, designated as “future retail” in the PUD Plan.
• Outlot C – 21.6 acres, identified as “The Village” and designated as
mixed-use for commercial and residential in the PUD Plan.
The Jeffers Pond PUD was designed as a lifecycle housing project which offers
various types of housing in a range of density and models including small single-
family homes, large single family detached homes, attached one and two-story
single-family townhomes, and apartment condominiums.
Current Circumstance:
The current request involves a minor amendment to allow additional classrooms
to the Jeffers Pond Elementary building. The building addition proposes a set-
back of 0.5 feet to the rear property line (adjacent to the City Parkland). Adjust-
ments to the water service line for the property and the rear access drive are also
proposed that would require City approval of an encroachment agreement within
the public parkland.
Section 1106.607 of the Zoning Ordinance allows the City Council to approve
minor amendments to an approved PUD Plan by resolution. Minor amendments
include “changes that increase conformity with Ordinance requirements; de-
creases in residential density, leasable floor area, building height, impervious sur-
face and/or required parking provided such decreases have a minimal impact on
the overall character of the approved Final PUD Plan as determined by the Zon-
ing Administrator; minor building additions and floor plan modifications that do
2
not increase parking requirements or reduce useable open space; and changes
that are specified as minor amendments in the approved Development Contract.”
Conclusion
City staff believes the overall impact of the amendment is minor in nature. The
addition will increase the school by approximately 6% in floor area and requires
an adjustment to the rear setback through a PUD amendment, water line/access
drive through an encroachment agreement, and vacation of an existing drainage
and utility easement at the rear property line (future City Council action item).
Therefore, City staff recommends approval of the minor PUD amendment subject
to the following conditions of approval:
1. The property owner must obtain the required permits from any other state or
local agency prior to any work on the site.
2. The access and utility encroachment agreement shall be recorded against
the City Park property.
ISSUES:
The 3,600-square foot classroom addition is about 6% of the overall 57,000
square foot elementary school. The addition is entirely comprised to the rear of
the building and will remain on the school district property. A water service line
and access drive around the rear of the building is proposed to be relocated as
part of the project. The relocated water line and private driveway would be lo-
cated within the adjacent City parkland (open space area). An encroachment
agreement is proposed to specify the future maintenance and liability for the re-
location of this water line and access drive. The proposed encroachment agree-
ment has been drafted by the City Attorney’s office.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: Approval of the PUD amendment and encroachment agreement will facilitate
construction of the school building addition. The applicable development fees
for Jeffers Pond were paid in 2005 with the platting process. Standard building
and construction permit fees will be paid by the school district as part of the
pending building permit process.
ALTERNATIVES: 1. Motion and a second, as part of the consent agenda, to 1) approve a resolu-
tion approving a minor amendment to the PUD Final Plan for Jeffers Pond,
subject to the listed conditions; and 2) approve a resolution authorizing exe-
cution of an encroachment agreement.
2. Motion and a second to remove this item from the consent agenda for addi-
tional discussion.
