PLANNING COMMISSION AGENDA REPORT
MEETING DATE: December 9, 2024
AGENDA #: 4C
PREPARED BY: Casey McCabe, Community Development Director
PRESENTED BY: Casey McCabe
AGENDA ITEM: Consider a Recommendation to Amend the Official Zoning Map from R-1,
Low Density Residential to C-2, General Business at 6025 170th St. E
DISCUSSION: Introduction
Property owner, M.P. Holdings, LLC, is requesting to amend the Official Zoning
Map from R-1, Low Density Residential to C-2, General Business at 6025 170th
St. E.
History
Property owner, M.P. Holdings, LLC, is requesting to amend the Official Zoning
Map to rezone property at 6025 170th Street E. from R-1, Low Density
Residential to C-2, General Business.
The property owner recently received approval of a preliminary and final plat to
be known as Revere Addition which created an approximate 1.42 acre parcel
to the west of Revere Way that is currently occupied with a 4,860 sq. ft. building
and surface parking lot. The east side of Revere Way is proposed for future
commercial development and has been platted as an approximate 7.16 acre
Outlot.
Prior Lake City Code Subsection 1120.501, Designation of Annexed Property,
Zoning of Land, states, land areas which may be added to the City by
annexation, merger, or other means shall be classified as R-1 (Low Density
Residential) on the Zoning Map upon annexation. In conformance with City
Code, this property was automatically zoned R-1, Low Density Residential when
it was annexed into the City of Prior Lake from Credit River Township in 2018.
Current Circumstances
The City of Prior Lake Comprehensive Land Use Map guides this property as
Retail/General Business. Rezoning of the property from R-1 to C-2, General
Business would bring the parcel into conformance with Comprehensive Plan
guidance.
Subsection 1153.209 of City Code identifies the following policies for
amendments to the Official Zoning Map:
➢ The area, as presently zoned, is inconsistent with the policies and goals
of the Comprehensive Plan, or the land was originally zoned erroneously
due to a technical or administrative error, or
➢ The area for which rezoning is requested has changed or is changing to
such a degree that it is in the public interest to rezone so as to encourage
redevelopment of the area, or
➢ The permitted uses allowed within the proposed Zoning District will be
appropriate on the subject property and compatible with adjacent
properties and the neighborhood.
Conclusion
Rezoning of this property from R-1 to C-2 was a condition of approval for a
recent Conditional Use Permit and the Combined Preliminary and Final Plat
approval for Revere Addition. City staff finds the area, as presently zoned, is
inconsistent with the policies and goals of the Comprehensive Plan. The
permitted uses allowed within the General Commercial (C-2) Zoning District will
be appropriate on the subject property and compatible with the zoning of
adjacent properties. Based on these findings, City Staff recommends approval
of the rezoning request.
ALTERNATIVES: 1. Motion and a second to recommend the City Council approve the rezoning
request from R-1, Low Density Residential to C-2, General Business for the
property at 6025 170th Street E.
2. Motion and a second to recommend the City Council deny the rezoning
request from R-1, Low Density Residential to C-2, General Business for the
property at 6025 170th Street E.
3. Motion and a second to table this item to a future Planning Commission
meeting and provide staff with direction.
