Home My WebLink About5 - Public Hearing on Reserve Vacation Application " AGENDA NUMBER: PREPARED BY: SUBJECT: DATE: INTRODUCTION: BACKGROUND: HERITAGE 1891 COMMUNITY 1991 qtXJexy.\ ' 20J1 5 SAM LUCAST ASSOCIATE PLANNER CONDUCT PUBLIC HEARING ON RESERVE VACATION APPLICATION JULY 15, 1991 The purpose of this item is to consider the vacation of a strip of dedicated "Reserve", a 50 x 108 foot area adjacent to the previously vacated reserve and the Simpson property, Block 50, Lot 6, Spring Lake Townsite. (See attached maps 1,2, & 3.) On September 9, 1977 the City council of Prior Lake passed Resolution 77-25 to vacate the southeasterly 30 feet of sixth Street lying south of the southerly right-of-way of Lake Street, Spring Lake Townsite, adjacent to the Gordon Gelhaye property. Enclosed is the information relating to that vacation action. Point of information - the vacation action of the Council in Resolution 77-25 is very clear - the 30' x 150' strip does not include all of the part of sixth street as suggested in Simpson's letter (attached). The area adjacent to the proposed vacation is lined with large trees as the winter vehicle access slopes gently toward the lake. The lakeshore is sand and rock with grass separating housing and the shore. The road is gravel, signs prohibit boat launches and snowmobilin9. Grass, trees, and a pile of concrete s1dewalk pieces belonging to the Simpson's, are on the vacation site. without the sportsmen's Club sign delineating uses, the access would hardly be noticed. A Prior Lake policy statement(#88-04 attached) regarding road vacations of public rights of way intersecting the lakes of Prior and spring, states "they shall be retained if determined to be in the public interest. Such uses may include recreation access for snowmobiles, skiers, cars, and hikers, as well as providing utility easements for storm water, sanitary sewer, and water. Unimproved rights of way not intersecting the lakes of the City of Prior Lake may be vacated only 4629 Dakota 51. S.E., Prior Lake, Minnesota 55372 I Ph. (612) 447-4230 Fax (612) 447-4245 DISCUSSION when it will not have an adverse impact on the existing transportation network or any future network of roads required for land access." All utility companies in the area have been notified, and res~onded that there are no underground utilit1es, easements, or any other relevant issues concerning the site. Recent reserve vacations on spring Lake have been with lots where no public access is available; i.e. adjacent to private property on both sides of the reserve. This application is different because the request is adjacent to a public access. Seventh and Eighth Street, as suggested in Simpson's letter, were vacated but man~ years ago with no record of those proceed1n~s. Obviously, public policy has changed S1nce then. Currently there are only three public land access points to spring Lake totaling 125 feet in width. None of these are boat launches. (See attached map 4.) 1) A fifteen foot wide walkway between Lot 2, Block 45, Spring Lake Townsite and Lot 17, Butternut Beach. 2)A fifty foot wide unbuildable lot owned by the city on Lot 3, Sunset Shore. 3) Thirty feet at Spring Lake Road widening to sixty feet at the Reserve between Lot 6, Block 50, and Lot 1, Block 49, both of Spring Lake Townsite. (Subject site) Vacating this portion of the right of way represents a reduction in the previously platted public access to Spring Lake. It is important for the benefit of those without lake shore lots to retain access to these public amenities. Vacating this right of way benefits only the adjacent property owner, not the community as a whole. The Lake Review Committee of Prior lake authored Water Resource Management - A Guide For A Balanced Future. Relevant paragraphs from the publication, regarding access, are referenced in this report. (See attachments 1-4 with paragraphs marked.) COMPREHENSIVE PLAN IMPACT: ALTERNATIVES: RECOMMENDATION: ACTION REQUIRED: The interest of the Sportsmen's Club in Beach Lane indicates a commitment to the preservation of public accesses to the lake. Staff contacted the Sportsmans Club to determine their position on this request. The Sportsmen's Club indicated an unfavorable response to the idea of vacating that portion of the reserve. The club president and other members will attend the meeting and express their opinions. The Department of Natural Resources (DNR), Regional Trails and Waterways Coordinator, Gordon Kimball, is not in favor of vacating the site. The DNR supports the continued use of sportsmen's accesses as public access. A letter to arrive on or about July 15, 1991 further elaborates the position. The City's literature and ~olicies clearly indicate the desire to ma1ntain or even increase the public access to public waters within the City of Prior Lake. Granting this vacation is not in keeping with the guidelines set forth in city plans and policies. Although there are no existing plans for the use of this reserve, the applicant's re9Uest for vacation does not justify forever g1ving up this property. The current Comprehensive Plan does not address this issue. However, a new edition is being revised and is proposed to be consistent with the city's existing policy. There are three alternatives: 1) Accept the request for vacation. 2) Deny the request for vacation. 3) Table the request pending conditions. Based on current City Council policy, Staff recommends denial of the request for vacation due to the already limited access to Spring lake. This vacation would benefit one individual ~roperty owner. Therefore, the limited pub11c property access to Spring Lake should be retained for future public use. A motion is required to approve or deny attached Resolution 91-28. The motion will depend on the outcome of Council discussion. CITY OF PRIOR LAKE July 5, 1991 This is in regards to the City's request for our reasoning to apply for the vacation of JO' of the reserve portion of Sixth Street, (legal attached Yith application). In our conversations vith Gordy Gelhaye we understood that the reserve portion of Sixth Street had been vacated along Yith the original vacation, (resolution 77-25, August 22, 1977). At that time the city vacated ".30' of Sixth Street, maintaining .30' for public access". Nowhere in the resolution does it state that the reserve portion of the parcel that was vacated was to be excluded. According to resolution 77-25, the whole .30' was vacated, from roadway to lake. We feel it was an oversight by the City no to exclude the 30' reserve portion on resolutions Pfl-67 and 88-13, which overlooked that the property had been vacated earlier. The Gelhayel s were under t.l1e interpre- taMon that the total area had been vacated in 1977, vhich according to the resolutions it was. Also note that Seventh Street and Eighth Street, and possibly others were completely vacated, including the reserve portion. The parcel in question is unused and unmaintained by the City and is and he.s been maintaine:3. b:v the a::joir.ing pl"opert~' OWI".er wi tho:;,t be:-.ef"i t of ow,ersmp.

Attachment 1 WATER USE In this chapter, the Water Use Subcommittee examined patterns and trends in recreational use of the lakes, surface water use conflicts and their consequences and controls on surface water use. Several factors including riparian rights, economic factors, safety, user access and enjoyment, were taken into consideration in the preparation of this subcommittee report. The conclusions and recommendations are not prioritized. CONCLUSION: -t PRIOR lAKE AND SPRING lAKE ARE PUBUC WATERS THAT ARE USED BY A MULTI11JDE OF GROUPS FOR VARIOUS ACTIVE AND PASSIVE USES. The most actively used waters are the general devel- opment waters of Prior and Spring Lakes. The prominent surface uses on Prior and Spring Lakes consist of: Fishing, water-skiing, non-motorized boating, swimming, personal water craft use, sailing, wind surfing, ice fishing, snowmobiling, aircraft use and passive viewing of the lakes. Because of their size, both Prior and Spring Lakes are regional attractions and are used by many non-residents. WE RECOMMEND: PROPOSED scon COUNTY ORDINANCE NUMBER 9 IS A BEGINNING TOOL FOR ENFORCING LAKE USES IN PRIOR LAKE. LOCAL OFFICIALS MUST SEEK DNR APPROVAL OF PROPOSED ORDINANCE NUMBER 9 TO RENEW IT'S APPUCATION TO COUNTY LAKES. FURTHERMORE, CURRENT LANGUAGE FOUND IN ORDINANCE NUMBER 9 SHOULD BE EVALUATED FOR ITS FUTURE EFFECTIVENESS. AMENDMENTS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED TO BRING THE OR- DINANCE INTO COMPLIANCE WIll{ 1990 PRACTICES. nus AMENDMENT PROCESS MUST BE SPEAR HEADED BY PRIOR LAKE AND COUNIY OFFICIALS WORKING CLOSELY WITH DNR AND LOCAL STAFFS. (See Supplemental Reports for a copy of Scott County Ordinance #9.) WE RECOMMEND: 11iE CITY OF PRIOR LAKE SHOULD CREATE A LAKE MANAGEMENT COMMIlTEE TO PERIOD- ICALLY MONITOR LAKE USE ACTMTIES AND TRENDS. nus COMMlTI'EE WOULD BE RESPON- SIBLE TO IDENTIFY PROBLEM USES AND TO WORK WITH APPROPRIATE CLUBS, HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATIONS AND mE PUBUC TO DEVELOP USE RESTRICTIONS AND REC- OMMENDATIONS FOR CITY COUNCIL CONSIDERATION AND IMPLEMENTATION. For example, there is a growing concern about Personal Water Craft (PWC) use on community lakes. PWC's generate noise which is offensive to some lake users and the shoreland environment. This committee could be responsible to define the extent of the problem, to work with residents and retailers in order to develop a recommendation to the City for methods to regulate the PWC use in order to lessen the negative impacts of PWC use on local waters. In addition, the City of Prior Lake should monitor legislative actions of the State of Minnesota related to regula- tion of PWC. Once state legislation is enacted, the City of Prior Lake should adopt compatible regulations for the use of PWC's which are consistent with the new laws. 21 ] 1 ] ~ I 1 1 J j ] ] J ] J J JK I J J r r Attachment 2 Non-resident user education should consist of printed materials, signage at boat launch areas and information on nautical charts supplied at various lake associated businesses. In addition, safety stickers, warnings and brochures should be handed out by the enforcement agencies when issuing boating citations and warning tickets; education for lake users about pollution and sewage control should also be provided.through law enforcement, Prior Lake Sportsmen's Club, the Prior Lake Association and licensing agencies. CONCLUSION: A FUll SERVICE MARINA IS NEEDED TO ACCOMMODATE RECREATIONAL WATER VEHICLES AND TO SERVICE THE NEEDS OF THE lAKE USERS. Two DNA operated public boat launch facilities exist on Prior Lake. However, no services other than a boat ramp, unsupervised parking lot and a portable toilet are available at either facility. The one existing marina on Prior Lake does not have the facilities or space necessary to accommodate the diverse users of the lake. Mooring facilities are not available for sailboats and gasoline service is only available during summer months. WE RECOMMEND: mE CIlY OF PRIOR LAKE SHOULD UNDERTAKE A FEASIBIU1Y STUDY TO ASCERTAIN mE AFFECT OF A PUBUC MARINA ON PRIOR LAKE. TIlE SnrDY SHOULD INCLUDE ENVIRONMEN- TAL, ECONOMIC AND SITE LOCATION CONSIDERATIONS. Budgeting for this study should occur in 1991. Because land available for development of a marina is limited and the cost of land for such purposes is high, and since marina use will benefit local businesses and citizens, it is appropriate for the City of Prior Lake to participate in the design, development and operation of a marina facility on Prior Lake and possibly Spring Lake. The City of Prior Lake should seriously consider location options for a marina in order that the businesses be successful and compliment other facilities such as restaurants, retail stores and the residential environment. Possible site locations recommended include the existing Marina, Lakefront Park, Sand Pointe Beach and the North Shore of Prior Lake. WE RECOMMEND: TIm CIlY OF PRIOR LAKE SHOUlD INSURE nIAT AU RESIDENTS OF TIlE COMMUNITY HAVE ACCESS TO RECREATIONAL AMENITIES AND SERVICES. Secure, safe, lighted, accessible and reasonably priced boat storage should be available for non-Iakeshore residents and users of Prior Lake's waters. The City of Prior Lake should insure that public waters are accessible to senior citizens and handicapped residents. CONCLUSION: A MULTITIJDE OF INDMDUALS HAVE ACCESS TO TIlE lAKES VIA HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATIONS. THESE ASSOCIATIONS PROMOTE COMMUNI1Y SPIRIT AND SERVE AS A POSITIVE COMMUNI1Y INFWENCE. A central information source needs to be developed and maintained regarding home owner associations. At a minimum, this file should include membership numbers, san- itary facilities, boat launch capabilities, docking requirements and association activities. 23 Attachment 3 WE RECOMMEND: mE CITY OF PRIOR LAKE SHOULD CONSIDER TIlE OPPORTIJN1TYTO DEVELOP COMMERCIAL PROPERTY ADJACENT TO TIlE LAKES. COMMERCIAL USES WHICH ENCOURAGE PASSIVE USE OF lAKES, SUCH AS CONFERENCE CENTERS, MAY BE A VIABLE OPTION. The Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Ordinance should be reviewed and if appropriate, amended to allow for com- mercial development adjacent to community water resources, provided the use is environmen- tally sound and can be architecturally integrated with the site. The City of Prior Lake should develop policies to evaluate commercial proposals within en- vironmentally sensitive areas. Policies should include requirements that projects are compat- ible with topography surrounding the site; are environmentally sound; blend with the natural features of the environs; do not generate noise, do not negatively affect water quality; have a method of disposing of effluent that does not impact water quality; insure that emergency vehicles and personnel have access to all parts of the facility; increase the public opportunity for interaction with the adjacent water resource. CONCLUSION: x PUBUC ACCESS VIA PUBUC ROADS AND DEDICATED MEANS. THIS COMMITIEE HAS FOUND 25 ACCESS POINTS INCLUDING lWO DNR MANDATED PUBUC ACCESSES. Most often these accesses are used during the winter months with many being closed by illegal and private means. These accesses, not visible to the public, shall be identified as sportsman's accesses based on the site, visibility, location and neighborhood. WE RECOMMEND: x TIlE CITY OF PRIOR lAKE NEEDS TO IDENTIFY AND MAINTAIN mESE LOCATIONS IN ORDER TO DISTRIBUTE TIlE TRAFFIC BURDEN AND WINTER ACCESS TO mE LAKES. The sportsman's accesses should be available only during the winter months from November 1 through March 1. Guidelines for the use of these accesses should be adopted from the Beach Lane Agree- ment with the City of Prior Lake signed during the Fall of 1989. The City of Prior Lake should . develop public access points to water resources in conjunction with trails and sidewalks to be identified in the Comprehensive Plan Parks and open space system. 25 Attachment 4 CONCLUSION: -t( TIlE PRIOR lAKE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN IS DEFICIENT IN ADDRESSING WATER MANAGEMENT ISSUES SUCH AS LAND USE, PUBUC WALKING AND VIEWING ACCESS AND FU11JRE PLANNING TO ENSURE THAT TIlE "PUBUC WATER RESOURCES" ARE AVAILABLE FOR ENJOYMENT BY ALL RESI- DENTS OF TIlE COMMUNIlY. The remaining open space surrounding wetlands and lakes pro- vide an invaluable community resource. The northwest quadrant of the City is currently zoned agricultural and conservation and contains limited development. These undeveloped land and water resources provide opportunities for the City to preserve and plan for future public use and access to the water resources. WE RECOMMEND: TIm COMPREHENSIVE LAND USE PLAN SHOULD BE AMENDED TO INDICATE lAKES, WET. -#: LANDS AND SIGNIFICANT WATER FEATURES AS AREAS INTENDED FOR PUBUC USE AND - I \ ACCESS FOR SUCH PURPOSES AS OPEN SPACE, VIEW CORRIDORS, PARKS AND RECREATION. WE RECOMMEND: THE CIlY OF PRIOR LAKE SHOULD AMEND TIlE STORM WATER MANAGEMENT COMPONENT OF TIlE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. The City should review ponding areas of the northwest quad- rant and orderly annexation area to incorporate smaller wetlands classified by the Corps of Engineers in the Storm Water Management Plan. Alternatives such as using holding ponds to retain water in the City of Prior Lake should be reviewed. WE RECOMMEND: TIlE CITY OF PRIOR LAKE SHOULD UNDERTAKE A COST BENEFIT A.."IJALYSIS OF THE FEASIBIUTY AND POTENTIAL COST TO EXTEND SEWER AND WATER TO TIlE NORTHWEST PART OF TIlE COMMUNITY. The wetland and water resources of the community must be protected from pollution from septic systems and over development of these environmentally sensitive areas. The City of Prior Lake must begin immediate discussions with Spring Lake Township to De- termine a time frame for the Extension of Sewer and Water around Spring Lake. The extension of municipal sewer and water around Spring Lake has received much speculation since 1972 when the Orderly Annexation Agreement was adopted. The installation of sewer and water around Prior Lake has just been completed so the attention is once again focusing on Spring Lake. There is a hesitancy to approach this issue due to political opposition and the estimated expensive cost. However, the continual decline of water quality in Spring Lake mandates that discussions be opened again. Upstream ponding and ditch improvements coupled with the elimination of septic systems can represent positive, albeit difficult, solutions to Spring Lake's problems. 30 fCi ~<il - ~~f PIDI ~S'}!:t ~ -0 'X" q t!)
