Prior Lake, MN 55372-1714 PLANNING REPORT PRESENTER: PUBLIC HEARING: DATE: 5C PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER A REQUEST FOR APPROVAL OF A PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT PRELIMINARY PLAN AND A PRELIMINARY PLAT TO BE KNOWN AS PIKE LAKE MEADOWS JEFF MATZKE, PLANNER X YES NO-N/A -- MAY 29, 2007 AGENDA ITEM: SUBJECT: INTRODUCTION: Manley Land Development has applied for approval of a development to be known as Pike Lake Meadows on the property located at the northwest intersection of CSAH 42 and Pike Lake Trail, south of Pike Lake. The application includes the following requests: . Approve a Planned Unit Development Preliminary Plan; . Approve a Preliminary Plat consisting of 21 acres to be subdivided into 19 lots and 4 outlots to allow for 11 townhome residential units and 8 townoffice units. Section 1106.400 of the Zoning ordinance lists the types of uses and standards allowed under a PUD. The PUD provisions offer maximum flexibility in various ways, including setbacks, building heights, and so on. The developer is requesting modifications to the setbacks, minimum lot areas, and a private street. In return, the developer is offering the following: . Construction of Pike Lake Trail as a 34' wide roadway with curb and gutter . Clustering of land uses to provide for increased tree preservation. . 2.79 acres of parkland (1.58 acres above the required 10% parkland dedication). . The cost associated with over sizing the trunk watermain from the required 8" pipe to a 12" pipe. . A cash escrow of approximately $34,000 directed toward the City's cost of installing the pressure reduction value (PRV) on the site The following paragraphs outline the physical characteristics of the existing site, the Comprehensive Plan and zoning designations, and a description of some of the specifics of the site. 1:\07 files\07 subdivisions\07 preliminary\pike lake meadows1P~ i;laft:rep,or,t.doc WWW.C1Lyotpnotlake.COm Page 1 Phone 952.447.4230 / Fax 952.447.4245 PHYSICAL SITE CHARACTERISTICS: Total Site Area: The total site consists of 21.7 acres. The net site area (gross land area less existing right-of-way, ponding, and wetlands) is 12.05 acres. Topoe:raphv: This site has a varied topography, with elevations ranging from 856' MSL at its highest point (southeastern comer) to 824' MSL at its lowest point (west central edge). Vee:etation: The site is a vacant parcel with 4,505 caliper inches of significant trees. The project is subject to the Tree Preservation requirements ofthe Zoning Ordinance. Wetlands: The wetland on the site encompasses approximately 5.1 acres. Access: Access to the site is from Pike Lake Trail. The adjacent residential property (bounded by the project on the west, east, and south) currently has a driveway access off of Pike Lake Trail and will maintain an access thru the townhome portion of the development and ultimately to Pike Lake Trail. 2030 Comprehensive Plan Desie:nation: This property is designated for R-L/MD (Urban Low to Medium Density Residential) and C-CC (Community Retail Shopping) uses on the 2030 Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map. Zonine:: The site is presently zoned R-4 (High Density Residential). Shoreland: This property is also located within the Shoreland District for Pike Lake, a Natural Environment Lake. As such, the property is subject to the Shoreland PUD requirements listed in Section 1104 of the Zoning Ordinance. PROPOSED PLAN Lots: The preliminary plat consists of 19 lots and 4 outlots to allow for 11 townhome residential units, 8 townoffice units, parkland, outlots for future conveyance to an adjacent residential lot, and a private street. Densitv: Density of the development is based on the net area of the site, which is 12.05 acres. There are a total of 19 units proposed, for a density of 1.57 units per acre. This is consistent with the density allowed in the R-4 Zoning District within the Shoreland District. Density is also restricted by the Shoreland District. The maximum density permitted is based on the net area of each tier divided by the minimum lot area (20,000 square feet). The permitted and proposed density is identified in the following table: 1:\07 files\07 subdivisions\07 preliminary\pike lake meadows\pc staffreport.doc Page 2 Permitted Density Proposed Density (# Units) (# Units) Shoreland District Tier 1 7 4 Shoreland District Tier 2 11 12 Shoreland District Tier 3 7.18 3 TOTAL 25 19 Streets: This plan proposes one roadway to be known as Sherrie Street, a private street designed with a 30' to 38' width, which will connect to Pike Lake Trail and end prior to the property to the northeast to allow for a possible future connection to the adjacent site. Sherrie Street will provide for the following: · Entrance to the parking area serving 4- 2 unit office-condominium buildings . Access for 11 townhome units. · A connection from the existing driveway ofthe adjacent single family dwelling. With a previous preliminary plat, the developer proposed to improve Pike Lake Trail to a full 44' width. At this time, however, the property owner located east of Pike Lake Trail does not wish to participate in granting the construction easements needed to improve the entire 44' width of Pike Lake Trail. Therefore, the developer has proposed to improve Pike Lake Trail to a width of 34' with concrete curb and gutter at the time of development. An estimate of the cost of upgrading Pike Lake Trail from a 34' to a full 44' width has been calculated at $34,225.65. In lieu of providing the amount of this estimate to upgrade the road to a full 44' width in the future, the developer has agreed to provide this same cash amount to the City as an escrow toward the installation of the necessary pressure reduction value (PRV) station located at the southeastern comer of the development. This escrow will reduce the City's cost of installing the PRY station. Curb cuts will be provided on the east side of Pike Lake Trail to maintain existing driveway access points. Since the drafting of the May 3, 2007 Engineering Memorandum the developer has meet with City Staff to discuss the various engineering comments including the key issue of the alignment of Pike Lake Trail. Additional information has been provided for determining the alignment of the 34' improved Pike Lake Trail to the satisfaction of the engineering department as well as responses to all of the engineering comments. The developer has indicated that revised plans addressing the various comments are being completed and will be resubmitted. SidewalkslTrails: In the future, a trail will extend along the west side of Pike Lake Trail. It is also anticipated that when the east side of Pike Lake Trail is developed, a trail or sidewalk will be extended along the east side of Pike Lake Trail. The developer has agreed to dedicate a trail easement across part of Lot 17 Block 2 near Outlot A for the placement of a city trail in the future. As indicated in the city engineering comments the plans will need to be revised reflecting this trail easement area. The interior of the site has the potential for future trails and a boardwalk to connect inaccessible areas of the site to a future park and trail system that will provide access to the City at large. 1:\07 files\07 subdivisions\07 preliminary\pike lake meadows\pc staff report. doc Page 3 Parks: The plan includes approximately 14.0 acres (Outlot C) which will be dedicated to the City. Currently, the City has a majority of Outlot C within a drainage and utility easement. Nonetheless, full dedication of this area will allow for construction of a trail and boardwalk that the City would have the ability to build and connect with future park and trail areas in this quadrant of the City. The wetland area will be preserved as a natural area as a result of this dedication. Sanitary Sewer/Water Mains/Storm Sewer: The Engineering Department has reviewed the plans for these utilities. The most recent comments dated May 2, 2007 are attached to this report. Buildine: Styles: The developer has included elevations of the proposed townhomes and office condominium products (attached). The proposed townhomes are in 2- to 3-unit buildings. They are two-story with walkout or full basements, 2 car garages, and decks. The exterior materials are vinyl siding with natural stone accents. The office condominiums are in 4-two unit buildings. They are two-story with walkout basements. The exterior materials reflect the townhome buildings with vinyl siding and natural stone accents. Impervious Surface: The maximum impervious surface allowed in the Shoreland District is 30% of the lot area above the OHW. Impervious surface coverage is further limited to 25% of each tier area in a Shoreland District PUD. The following table identifies the proposed impervious surface for this development. Tier Permitted Proposed 1 25% 11% 2 25% 20% 3 25% 13% Overall 30% 16% Shoreland Open Space ReQuirements: The Shoreland ordinance requires at least 50% of the total project area, or 10.8 acres, within this PUD be preserved as open space. The proposal exceeds this requirement. The wetlands and park land encompass 14.9 acres of this site. Landscapine:: Landscaping will be required for each element of this development. The minimum landscaping for the townhouse portion of the development is based on the perimeter of the site. The Zoning Ordinance requires at least one tree for each 40' feet of the perimeter of the site. The landscaping plan will need to be revised to specify which trees are intended to meet landscaping requirements versus those for tree replacement. Tree Replacement: The tree inventory identifies 4,505" significant caliper inches of trees on the site. The Zoning Ordinance allows the removal of significant trees without any required replacement within the width of required easements for public streets, 1:\07 files\07 subdivisions\07 preliminary\pike lake meadows\pc staff report.doc Page 4 utilities, and storm water ponding areas. In areas outside these easements up to 35% of the total significant caliper inches may be removed for initial site development. Any removal above these amounts requires tree replacement at a rate of ~ caliper inch for each inch removed. The developer has indicated removal of 1957" (43.4%) caliper inches outside of public easement areas. Therefore, the developer is responsible for replacing 166.7" caliper inches of trees. The proposed tree replacement indicated on the landscape plan will exceed this requirement. Market Study: Section 1106.703 requires an application for a PUD include a market study prepared within 6 months prior to the application identifying the market area of the project and the demand trends within this area. The developer submitted a study dated August 10, 2006. This study notes that market can support the proposed product type. Fees and Assessment: This development will be subject to the standard development fees. DISCUSSION: The preliminary plat plans meet minimum ordinance requirements. As noted in the attached Engineering memorandum dated May 3,2007, the developer must revise the plans to meet Public Work Design Manual requirements. However, none of these revisions will impact the general design of the proposed plat. For that reason, if the Planning Commission finds it appropriate, the plat can proceed to the City Council, subject to conditions. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: If the Planning Commission finds the PUD and preliminary plat acceptable, staff would recommend the following conditions be attached: 1. The developer must obtain the required permits from any other state or local agency prior to any work on the site. 2. The developer shall provide documentation verifying access easements that allow the adjacent residential property a maintained driveway through the project site to Pike Lake Trail. 3. The developer shall stub utility services to the property boundary of the adjacent residential parcel. 4. The developer shall provide an easement within Outlot D to assure future access from Sherrie Street to the adjacent parcel to the north east. 5. The developer shall provide a cost estimate for oversizing the trunk watermain from an 8" to 12" pipe. 6. The developer shall provide a cash escrow of $34,225.65 to the City for the installation of a Pressure Reduction Value (PR V) Station. 7. The developer shall dedicate a trail easement across part of Lot 17, Block 2. 8. Revise the plans to address all of the Engineering comments in the memorandum from Assistant City Engineer Larry Poppler dated May 3,2007. 1:\07 files\07 subdivisions\07 preliminary\pike lake meadows\pc staffreport.doc Page 5 9. The developer must submit a Letter of Credit in an amount equal to 125% of the cost of the required replacement trees. ALTERNATIVES: 1. Recommend approval of the PUD Preliminary Plan and the Preliminary Plat subject to the conditions identified by the Planning Commission. 2. Table this item to the June 11, 2007 Planning Commission meeting and provide the developer with direction on the issues that have been discussed. 3. Recommend denial of the request. RECOMMENDATION: The Planning staff recommends Alternative #1. ACTION REQUIRED: A motion and second to recommend approval of the preliminary plat and the PUD plan for Pike Lake Meadows subject to the listed conditions. EXHIBITS: 1.

JO ]Nll N 3.lr.~r.69S DATE: May 3,2007 TO: Jeff Matzke, Planner FROM: Larry Poppler, Assistant City Engineer CC: Steve Albrecht, Public Works Director/City Engineer RE: Pike Lake Meadows (City Project #06-162) The Engineering Department has reviewed the preliminary plat for the subject project dated April 13, 2007 and we have the following comments. Key Issues 1. The Engineering Department feels that Pike Lake Trail should be built to a width of 44 feet with concrete curb and gutter at this time. Previous direction from the City Council included the 44 foot width and concrete curb and gutter. The City Council could decide if the current proposal is acceptable. It is difficult to determine if the reduced 34 foot width allows proper alignment of the intersection to CSAH 42. Developer should provide a layout of this intersection. If the intersection can not be laid out properly at this time, the development should be considered premature. The Developer should show that the 34 foot temporary section continues to fulfill PUD requirements. Gradina Plan 1. Provide contact information for the person responsible for the erosion control on the project. 2. Grading easements will be required for the work outside the property lines. Hydroloay and Storm Sewer 1. Modification of the Dike used in the regional pond is a critical area. Dikes used to create ~ate control ponds must at maximum use 4: 1 slopes and measure 10' wide at top. At minimum, a clay core should be designed in consideration of groundwater flow. A clay core should be specified on the plan. Top of dike elevation should be 2' above the HWL. Sand bedding should not be used through dike section. 2. The storm sewer should be reconfigured to eliminate the segment of pipe located behind the retaining wall. This pipe drains part of Pike Lake Trail and will be considered public storm sewer. Utilities 1. Extend the services for the property east of Pike lake Trail out of the roadway as much as possible. 2. The commercial properties should have individual services extended to each unit. 3. The watermain connection on County Road 42 should be reviewed as part of the work appears to extend beyond the right of way. Streets 1. Pike Lake Trail should be shown using B618 concrete curb and gutter. Bituminous curbing will not be allowed. 2. All trails and sidewalks should be shown with truncated dome pedestrian curb ramps. 3. Provide concept plan for the extension of Sherrie Street and Pike lake Trail. 4. Show slopes 4: 1 or less for the backslopes from the curb on Pike Lake Trail. 5. Show a trail easement over part of lot 17 block 2 near Outlot A. In the future, the intent is to have a trail around Pike Lake.

Danette Moore City of Prior Lake 17073 Adelmann Street S.E. Prior Lake, MN 55372 RE: Mixed Use Planned Unit Development Narrative for Pike Lake Meadows Dear Danette, Manley Land Development, Inc. is pleased to submit to the City of Prior Lake applications for Preliminary Plat and Mixed-Use Planned Development for Pike Lake Meadows, which features eleven residential townhome units and four office condominium buildings adjacent to County Road 42 and Pike Lake Trail. Preliminary Plat and PUD approvals were previously granted for this project in 2006. One condition of the approval was the requirement to obtain an agreement with the property owner located to the east of the site on the other site of Pike Lake Trail prior to submitting an application for Final Plat and Final PUD. The necessary agreement was for a temporary construction easement along the east side of Pike Lake Trail that would be necessary in order for Manley Land Development to improve the road to a 44' street width. Unfortunately no agreement could be reached, and during this negotiation period our Preliminary PUD has expired. We have worked with Engineering Staff to remedy this matter by revising our current plan to include a new street section for Pike Lake Trail that will be upgraded to a 34' street width. No other changes have been made to this plan other than this revised street plan. Therefore, we are once again proposing a similar concept that was previously endorsed by the City which supported a Comprehensive Plan amendment to allow for community business and low to mid-density residential housing for this site. The Prior Lake-Spring Lake Watershed District granted Board and Staff approval on the original plan for Pike Lake Meadows on November 15,2005. A copy of the permit has been included with this submittal for reference purposes. Weare proposing complementary building materials for the townhomes and office condo buildings featuring brick, lap siding, cultured stone, and decorative columns all designed to enhance visual interest and create a distinct neighborhood design. Manley Land Development plans to construct this development after obtaining all necessary approvals. The City can expect to see construction commence in 2007, with the project to be essentially complete in 2008. We plan to establish an association responsible for maintaining both the commercial and residential components, and have included draft copies of the restrictive covenants and association documents as a component to this submittal. Significant public benefits to the City of Prior Lake can be obtained by utilizing a Planned Unit Development approach with the Pike Lake Meadows site plan. Preservation of the natural features of the site, expanded market opportunities for new businesses to locate in Prior Lake, harmonious transition between housing and commercial uses, and opportunities for a future trail corridor through future dedicated upland areas on the site are a few ofthe possible benefits to the City. We look forward to working with the City of Prior Lake to achieve a successful mixed- use development for this site. Sincerely, Cindy L. Weber Entitlements Manager Manley Land Development, Inc. 2 APR 1 3 Z007 PIKE LAKE MEADOWS PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT Manley Land Development, Inc. April 13, 2007 The Planned Unit Development District allows for greater flexibility in the development of a parcel or property by tailoring the development to the site and the neighborhood. Part of the PUD process is to identify the benefits achieved by using a PUD. Section 1106 of the City of Prior Lake's Zoning Code clearly states the benefits of utilizing a PUD. An explanation of how these benefits tailor to the Pike Lake Meadows development is detailed below. 1. Provides a flexible approach to development which is in harmony with the purpose and intent of the City's Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Ordinance. A PUD provides for a flexible approach on this site that will allow for a mixed use that is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan Amendment for this parcel. The proposed land uses are consistent with the guided land uses for the County Highway 42 corridor of Business/Office Park and Residential - Urban High Density. 2. More creative, efficient and effective use of land, open space and public facilities through mixing of land uses. The development concept we are proposing meets this objective because it offers a more compact land design that preserves and enhances the open space and natural features on the site. Over fourteen acres of this twenty-one acre site will be dedicated to the City of Prior Lake. 3. Create a sense of place and provide more interaction among people. The woodlands, wetlands and pond being preserved will not only provide a picturesque backdrop for this development, but will create a scenic location for possible future city trail and boardwalk improvements that will promote social interaction to occur within the site. As a PUD benefit to the City of Prior Lake, Manley Land Development intends to dedicate 1.07 acres of upland area on the western portion of the site, and 1.72 acres on the area south ofthe wetland and north of the county right-of-way, which will be included in a conservation easement that will cover a significant portion of the property to ensure that the natural elements are forever protected. Also, the mixed-use building concepts will allow people to both live and work within the same community. 4. Increase economic vitality and expand market opportunities. This development is a private investment in the community that will expand both the residential and commercial market opportunities in the area. The location of this development at the intersection of Co Rd 42 and Pike Lake Trail is a high visibility comer that provides an excellent location for small businesses, financial, professional, real estate, services and other uses. 5. Support long-term economic stability by strengthening the tax base, job market and business opportunities. Manley Land Development's site plan offers notable value to the community as it supports long-term economic stability and delivers a balanced tax base of high quality residential and commercial development in a visible yet scenic location. This balance is provided by locating the office buildings close to County Highway 42 as part of the Business and High Density corridor, and locating housing as a buffer between the County 42 corridor and Pike Lake. 6. Increase transportation options such as walking, biking or bussing. This development will be instrumental in providing better access and circulation along the Pike Lake Trail corridor with a walkway that will create a better and more visible connection to County Road 42. The plan also provides for pedestrian connection opportunities through the site. 7. Provide more efficient and effective use of streets, utilities, and public facilities that support high quality land use development at a lesser cost. The PUD approach allows for clustering the residential and commercial components away from the wetlands and wooded areas, resulting in significantly less tree removal and more efficient infrastructure. We have clustered the townhomes and office condos closely together in an effort to provide as much open space, wetlands, and tree preservation, and to maintain scenic lake views and the natural conditions of the adjacent environmental lake. The clustering concept also creates reduced setbacks between the townhome units, which will preserve additional woodland. A shared driveway access for the entire development site has been designed, thus creating less impervious surfaces. We are also requesting a reduction in the required amount of office condo parking stalls, which will still support quality development at a reduced overall cost and preserve 1,100 square feet of woodland. We have revised our original plan to save an existing stand of trees located near the center of the parking lot. Under conventional methods, this plan would require 79 parking stalls; our plan provides 74 stalls. However, should additional parking be required in the future, the site 2 can accommodate an additional 5 parking stalls, as shown on the proof of parking plan. One of the unique features that have been implemented into our plan includes curb cuts along the northeast side ofthe office condo parking lot. These curb cuts not only provide a disconnected impervious surface to reduce stormwater volume, but this low-impact design also includes a grassy drainage swale with suitable plantings that will help create an aesthetic buffer between the parking area and roadway. Concurrent to this development, Manley Land Development will improve the west side of Pike Lake Trail to collector street standards along our eastern property line. Manley Land Development is also proposing to provide the City of Prior Lake with the oversizing of the trunk watermain from the required 8" to 12" with no expense to the City for doing so. 8. Enhanced incorporation of recreational, public and open space components in the development which may be made more useable and be more suitably located than would otherwise be provided under conventional development procedures. The PUD district also encourages the developer to convey property to the public, over and above required dedications, by allowing a portion of the density to be transferred to the other parts of the site. The uniqueness of the site will be maintained in its natural state due to the substantial percentage of land that will be conveyed to the City. We have included a concept layout of a passive park trail through the preserved open space that could link this site to park land located north of our property. This twenty- one acre site creates approximately fourteen acres of open space that otherwise would not be available for public use and enjoyment. Manley Land Development is offering to convey approximately 1.72 acres of upland to the City. This upland is above and beyond the required dedication, and with access from the west, could have had development opportunities. Our company believes this upland can create a greater benefit by being included into the potential passive park trail system 9. Preserves and enhances desirable site characteristics and open space, and protection of sensitive environmental features including, but not limited to, steep slopes, wetlands, and trees. The development has been designed to be senSItIve to wooded areas, the floodplain, adjacent wetlands, and enhanced water quality for Pike Lake. The office condo buildings will feature desirable walkout conditions adjacent to the City pond and wetlands, and allow for tenants to enjoy the surrounding natural 3 features of the site. The townhomes have been designed with sensitivity to the natural topography, wetlands, and Pike Lake. 10. High quality of design compatible with surrounding land uses, including both existing and planned. Our site plan has been designed to be compatible to the eXlstmg and future surrounding land uses, and is consistent with the Comprehensive Guide Plan. The future development of the Vierling property on the east side of Pike Lake Trail will provide another location for a mixed-use development in this area. These two parcels will compliment one another by providing diversity in both commercial and housing opportunities. 4
