Agenda Item: 7d. TO: Corcoran City Council FROM: Kendra Lindahl, Landform DATE: July 15, 2021 for the July 22, 2021 City Council Meeting RE: Final Plat for “Franzen Estates” on the property located at 23020 Strehler Road (PID 17-119- 23-32-0003) (city file no. 21-021) 60-DAY REVIEW DEADLINE: August 30, 2021 1.Description of Request The applicants are requesting approval of a final plat for a three lot subdivision. This subdivision would use all of the development rights on the property. 2. Background In 1993, the City Council approved a lot split that allowed the Franzens to split off the 10-acre parcel at 23105 Larsen Road. As part of that approval, they provided a 60-foot roadway easement across the north portion of the new lot to provide access to the remaining property. At that time, the City acquired deeds for additional land at the end of Larsen Road to ensure a full 60 feet of access from the cul-de- sac. The existing home and accessory structure will remain on the proposed Lot 1 with access to Strehler Road and the two new lots would be sold for custom homes. Those two lots would have access off the end of the Larsen Road cul-de-sac. The Council approved the Preliminary Plat and Variance from lot frontage/lot width requirements on April 22, 2021. 3. Context Zoning and Land Use The site is guided Rural/Ag Residential in Comprehensive Plan and zoned Rural Residential (RR). The properties to the east, north and west are guided Rural/Ag Residential and zoned RR. The property to the south across Strehler Road is guided Agricultural Preserve and zoned RR. Natural Characteristics of the Site There are no natural resources identified in the NRI. However, the northwestern portion of the site does border a High Quality Natural Community (maple/basswood forest). The are a number of wetlands on the site and the southwest portion of the site is in the FEMA floodplain. Franzen Estates Final Plat (21-021) 2 July 22, 2021 4. Analysis Staff has reviewed the application for consistency with Comprehensive Plan, Zoning Ordinance, Subdivision Ordinance and City Code requirements, as well as City policies. The City Engineer’s comments are incorporated into this staff report, the detailed comments are included in the attached engineering memo and the approval conditions require compliance with the memo. A. Level of City Discretion in Decision-Making The City’s discretion in approving a final plat is limited to whether the proposed plat meets the standards outlined in the City’s subdivision and zoning ordinance. If it meets these standards, the City must approve the final plat. B. Consistency with Ordinance Standards Final Plat Staff has reviewed the application for consistency with the approved preliminary plat, as well as City policies. The City Engineer’s comments are incorporated into this staff report and the detailed comments are included in the attached engineering memo dated July 14, 2021. Staff has included a condition that these items be addressed before the final plat is released for recording. Wetlands The wetland delineation has been approved. No wetland impacts are proposed. Medium quality wetlands must provide a 25 foot average wetland buffer plus a 15-foot setback from the buffer. The wetland buffer and buffer setback must be shown on the preliminary plat. A drainage and utility easement must be provided over the wetland and wetland buffer. The applicant will be required to show wetland buffer monument signs on the plans and install them on site in compliance with the Zoning Ordinance Section 1050.010 requirements. The ordinance requires a wetland buffer monument at each lot line where it crosses a wetland buffer, and where needed to indicate the contour of the buffer, with a maximum spacing of 200 feet of wetland edge. Additionally, where acceptable natural vegetation exists in buffer strip areas, the retention of such vegetation in an undisturbed state is preferred. However, if the LGU finds that the buffer has been disturbed, it must be planted with wetland buffer vegetation as described in the Zoning Ordinance. The applicant should work with the City’s wetland consultant to determine the appropriate landscaping. Franzen Estates Final Plat (21-021) 3 July 22, 2021 Park Dedication Park dedication is required for the two lots and shall be cash-in-lieu of land. Fees would be based on the park dedication in place at the time the final plat is released. The current fee schedule would require $ 9,256.00 (2 x $4,628.00). Landscaping The applicant’s plan indicate that no significant trees will be removed. Section 1060.070 of the Zoning Ordinance requires one overstory street to be planted on each of the new lots. This has been included as a condition of approval. Access The City Council approved a variance to allow a private drive to come off Larsen Road and serve only the two new lots. The new driveway to serve the two lots must be separated from the existing driveway for the home to the south. The City engineer has identified a number of changes required prior to approval of the plans and staff has included compliance with those items as a condition of approval. Once the final plans are approved, the applicant must provide construction cost estimates as required for the Site Improvement Performance Agreement (SIPA). A financial guarantee will need to be provided to ensure completion of the required improvements. A draft SIPA has been include in the packet. The City Attorney has prepared a draft private driveway easement and maintenance agreement, but legal descriptions must be provided by the applicant in order to finalize the document for recording. Conclusion Staff has reviewed the plan for consistency with the applicable standards outlined in the preliminary approvals, Zoning Ordinance and Subdivision Ordinance. The staff report noted the outstanding issues that must be addressed and we have included conditions in the attached resolution to address these issues. 5.

EASEMENT MAINTENANCE AND PROPERTY COVENANTS AGREEMENT This Easement Maintenance and Property Covenants Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made this ____ day of ____________, 2021, by Gregory F. Franzen, a.k.a. Gregory H. Franzen and Deborah L. Franzen, husband and wife, (“Owner”), and Gregory F. Franzen, a.k.a. Gregory H. Franzen and Deborah L. Franzen, husband and wife, (“Lot 2 Owner”), and Gregory F. Franzen, a.k.a. Gregory H. Franzen and Deborah L. Franzen, husband and wife, (“Lot 3 Owner”) and the City of Corcoran, a Minnesota municipal corporation (the “City”), (collectively the “parties”). Recitals A. Owner is the owner of certain real property in Hennepin County, Minnesota, legally described as Lots 1, 2, and 3, Block 1, Franzen Estates, Henneping County, Minnesota, according to the recorded plat thereof (the “Property”); and B. Owner has received subdivision approval from the City to subdivide the Property into 3 parcels as described above (the “Subdivision”); and C. Lot 2 and Lot 3 will share use and maintenance of a private driveway, which Owner intends to construct for access to each of Lots 2 and 3 within the Subdivision; and D. Both prior to and immediately following recording of the proposed Subdivision, Owner will be the owner of Lots 2 and 3 within the Subdivision; and E. By this Agreement, Owner intends to encumber both Lot 2 and Lot 3 to obligate present and future owners of the same to maintain the private driveway and adhere to the covenants within, on behalf of the owners of the Lots 2 and 3 and the City of Corcoran; and F. Owner desires to grant the easement described on the attached Exhibit A to Lot 2 and Owner desires to grant the easement described on the attached Exhibit B to Lot 3, over the Subdivision, both easements for ingress, egress, access, drainage, utilities, and an address sign serving Lots in the Subdivision, in accordance with the terms and conditions contained herein; and G. Pursuant to Section 945.020 Subd. 20(A)(4) and (5) of the Corcoran City Code, the City requires the establishment of this Agreement and the covenants contained herein as a condition precedent to the City issuing building permits for the Subdivision, in order to ensure that the driveway remains private in perpetuity and is properly maintained by the property owners within the Subdivision, as well as to provide for City required access, drainage, utilities, and other public purposes. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals, and other good and valuable consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Owner declares and covenants as follows: 1. Grant of Easements. To Lot 2 : Owner hereby grants and conveys to the Lot 2 Owner a perpetual non-exclusive easement (the “Lot 2 Easement”), as described in Exhibit A, for ingress, egress, access, driveway, drainage, utilities, and construction and maintenance of an address sign as required by the City, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. To Lot 3 : Owner hereby grants and conveys to the Lot 3 Owner a perpetual non-exclusive easement (the “Lot 3 Easement”), as described in Exhibit B, for ingress, egress, access, driveway, drainage, utilities, and construction and maintenance of an address sign as required by the City, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. To the City: Owner hereby grants and conveys to the City a perpetual non-exclusive easement (the “City Easement”), as described in Exhibit C, for ingress, egress, access, driveway, drainage, utilities, and construction and maintenance of an address sign as required by the City, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. This Agreement does not create any construction or maintenance obligation on the part of the City. 2. Term of Easement and Agreement. The easements established by this Agreement shall be perpetual, and shall bind and inure to the benefit of the parties and their successors and assigns and shall be appurtenant to the respective Lots to which they are granted, The term of this Agreement shall also be perpetual and be binding on the parties, their successors and assigns. Owner does not intend that the easements created by this Agreement merge into fee ownership. 3. Maintenance. The Lot 2 Owner and the Lot 3 Owner, and their respective successors and assigns, shall be exclusively and equally responsible for all maintenance of the driveway and the costs thereof, including, but not limited to, snow removal, grading, drainage, gravel/pavement, culvert repair, and any other necessary maintenance for that portion of the driveway which is used mutually by the owners of Lot 2 and Lot 3, and which is described in the attached Exhibit D (the “Mutually Maintained Driveway Section”). The owners of Lot 2 and Lot 3 shall establish and endorse a separate agreement to establish the creation and administration of a fund to address these maintenance obligations. The owners of Lots 2 and 3 shall at all times maintain the Mutually Maintained Driveway Section in a safe, clean and good operating condition. The Lot 2 Owner shall be exclusively responsible for the maintenance of those portions of the Lot 2 Easement which are north of the Mutually Maintained Driveway Section. An owner who undertakes repair or maintenance activities as required by this section, shall repair and restore any damage to the other owner’s property resulting from such activities and shall not unreasonably interfere with the other owner’s property during its repair and maintenance activities. In the event an owner fails to perform such owner’s repair, maintenance or payment obligations pursuant to this Agreement (a “Nonperforming Owner”), the other owner (a “Performing Owner”) may give such Nonperforming Owner written notice of such failure to repair, maintain or pay, as the case may be, and, if such Nonperforming Owner shall not make such payment or complete or diligently pursue completion of such repair and maintenance activities within thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice, the Performing Owner has the right, but not the obligation, to make such payment or make such repairs or perform such maintenance and such Nonperforming Owner shall reimburse the Performing Owner, within fifteen (15) days after receipt of an invoice therefor from the Performing Owner, for the portion of all such costs and expenses for which the Nonperforming Owner is liable hereunder, provided, however, that if the Performing Owner deems an emergency endangering life or property to exist with respect to required repair and maintenance, the Performing Owner may give only such notice as is reasonable under the circumstances and may undertake such repair and maintenance activities at such time as it deems necessary. If any amount payable by one owner to the other owner under this section shall not be paid within the time period permitted for payment as set forth herein, such amount shall (i) bear interest at the rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum or the maximum rate permitted under applicable law, whichever is less, and (ii) be secured by a continuing lien on the property of the Nonperforming Owner, which lien shall be prior to all other liens except the lien of any first-in-priority mortgage, deed of trust or other security interest. Notice is hereby given that neither owner shall be liable for any work, services, materials or labor furnished or allegedly furnished at the request of the other party. No mechanic's, materialmen's or other lien related to any work, services, materials or labor furnished or allegedly furnished at the request of either owner shall attach to the other property. If any mechanics' lien, materialmen's lien or other lien is filed against an owner’s property as a result of the failure, or alleged failure, of the other owner (or its contractors) to pay for any work, services, materials or labor, then the non- defaulting owner may take all steps necessary to release and discharge such lien and the defaulting owner shall reimburse the non-defaulting owner, upon demand, for all reasonable costs it incurs in connection therewith, unless the defaulting owner causes such lien to be released and discharged, or is rightfully contesting the same, within thirty (30) days after it is notified of the same by the non-defaulting owner. 4. Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be construed under the laws of the State of Minnesota. The singular shall be deemed to include the plural wherever appropriate and, unless the context clearly indicated to the contrary, any obligation and duties of the parties shall be joint and several. 5. Title Representation. Owner covenants that it is the lawful owner and is in the lawful possession of the Property and maintains the unqualified lawful right and authority to convey and grant the easements described herein.

Agenda Item: 7e. TO: Corcoran City Council FROM: Nicholas Ouellette through Kendra Lindahl, Landform DATE: July 12, 2021 for the July 22, 2021 City Council Meeting RE: Preliminary Plat and Variance for “Gordon’s Country Estates First Addition” at 19701 and 19717 Jackie Lane (PID 01-119-23-22-0024 and 01-119-23-22-0021) (city file no. 21-025) REVIEW DEADLINE: July 27, 2021 1.Description of Request Jake Overcott is requesting approval of a preliminary plat and variance to adjust the lot line between the two properties located at 19701 Jackie Lane and 19717 Jackie Lane. The variance is from the minimum lot size and lot width requirements in the Urban Reserve (UR) district. The applicant has also submitted a request to vacate the drainage and utility easements on the common lot lines. The vacation will require a public hearing at the July 22, 2021 City Council meeting. 2.Planning Commission Review The Planning Commission reviewed this item at a public hearing at their July 1, 2021 meeting. Other than the applicant, there was no one present to speak on this item. The Planning Commission discussed the requirement to move or remove the accessory structure in order to meet side yard setbacks. Commissioner Jacobs noted the shed setback was not dimensioned on the plans. The Planning Commission requested a surveyor dimension the side yard setback for the shed on plans before determining whether the structure must be moved or removed. Staff noted that the applicant could adjust the proposed lot line to ensure compliance with the setback if the shed could not be moved. The Planning Commission voted 5-0 to recommend approval of the request and noted that the staff report and resolution be revised to note the required 20 ft. side yard setback. Following the Planning Commission, the applicant confirmed the that the setback is only 15.6 ft as shown and he will review alternatives prior to final plat submittal. 3. Background The applicant is requesting approval of a preliminary plat to adjust a lot line between two properties that would increase the size of the lot located at 19717 Jackie Lane and decrease the size of the lot located at 19701 Jackie Lane. The combined size of the two properties will not change. The applicant has submitted a variance application related to lot size and lot width required in the UR district. The applicant has submitted these applications to increase the size of their property at 19717 Jackie Lane to allow for the construction of an accessory structure where it is not possible with the current lot size and property boundaries. The property owner at 19701 Jackie Lane wishes to decrease the size of their property to lessen the burden of property maintenance. Gordon’s Country Estates First Addition (21-025) 2 July 22, 2021 The site comprises two developed single family residential lots. The property located at 19701 Jackie Lane has one shed and fence accessory structure, which will need to be relocated as a result of the lot line adjustment. 4. Context Zoning and Land Use The site is zoned Urban Reserve (UR) district and the Comprehensive Plan designates the site as Existing Residential. The property is located within the Metropolitan Urban Service Area (MUSA). Surrounding Properties All surrounding properties are located within the MUSA, zoned UR district and designated as Existing Residential in the Comprehensive Plan. Present land use on all surrounding properties is single family residential. Natural Characteristics of the Site The Comprehensive Plan Natural Resources Inventory (NRI) map identifies open water on the property located at 19717 Jackie Lane. Hennepin County Natural Resources Map identifies probable and potential wetlands on both parcels within the site. Probable and potential wetlands are located on the southern half of the property at 19717 Jackie Lane and potential wetlands are located along the south property line of the property at 19701 Jackie Lane. Trees exist throughout the site. 5. Analysis Staff has reviewed the application for consistency with Comprehensive Plan, Zoning Ordinance, Subdivision Ordinance and City Code requirements, as well as City policies. The City Engineer’s comments are incorporated into this staff report, the detailed comments are included in the attached engineering memo and the approval conditions require compliance with the memo. A. Level of City Discretion in Decision-Making The City’s discretion in approving a preliminary plat is limited to whether the proposed plat meets the standards outlined in the City’s subdivision and zoning ordinance. If it meets these standards, the City must approve the preliminary plat. The City has a higher level of discretion with a variance because the burden of proof is on the applicant to show that the variance standards have been met. Gordon’s Country Estates First Addition (21-025) 3 July 22, 2021 B. Consistency with Ordinance Standards Preliminary Plat Lot line adjustments are allowed without platting if the conditions in Section 926, Subd. 1 of the City Code are met. The proposed lot line adjustment between 19717 and 19701 Jackie Lane will result in lots that do not meet the minimum dimensional requirements for the UR district, therefore, it does not meet all the conditions in Section 926. Therefore, a preliminary plat and variance from minimum dimensional requirements is required to adjust the lot line between the two parcels. Lot Size and Setbacks The applicant is proposing a lot line adjustment between two properties on this 4.2-acre site. The lot line adjustment will increase the size of the property located at 19717 Jackie Lane from 1.3 acres to 2.14 acres and decrease the size of the property located at 19701 Jackie Lane from 3.02 acres to 2.18 acres. The preliminary plat will not create any additional lots. Proposed Lot 1 and proposed Lot 2 do not meet UR district standards for lot sizes and width. Section 1040.020 Subd. 9 of the Zoning Ordinance requires a lot size of 20 acres and minimum lot width of 300 ft. The existing homes have legal non-conforming setbacks from lot lines that are not being adjusted with this plat. UR District Standards Proposed Lot 1 Proposed Lot 2 Minimum lot area 20 acres 2.14 acres 2.18 acres Minimum lot width 300 ft. 204.91 ft. 181.90 ft. Minimum lot depth 300 ft. 425.48 ft. 498.78 ft. Front, from all other streets 50 ft. 55.60 ft. (Jackie La) 53.60 ft. (Robert La) 48.80 ft.* Side 25 ft. 15.20 ft.* 66.40 ft. Rear 30 ft. 342.40 ft. 407.60 ft. Maximum Principal Building Height 35 ft. N/A N/A * Legal non-conforming setbacks that will not be affected by the lot line adjustment proposed with the preliminary plat. Structures A survey submitted by the applicant shows homes on each of the two lots. The existing homes do not meet the front and side setback requirements of the UR district and are legal non-conforming structures due to setbacks. The lot line adjustment will not affect those setbacks. The homes would both meet the required setbacks from the new lot line. Gordon’s Country Estates First Addition (21-025) 4 July 22, 2021 Plans show both proposed lots meet the standards for accessory structure footprints. A shed on proposed Lot 2 does not meet the side setback requirements for the proposed lot line adjustment. Staff has included a condition that the shed on proposed Lot 2 be relocated or removed to comply with the 20 ft. side yard setback from the new lot line. Alternatively, the applicant could shift the proposed lot line west approximately 5 ft. to meet setback requirements. Well and Septic Plans show the location of existing well and septic areas for both proposed lots. Well and septic for both properties will remain within their respective proposed lot boundaries. No new well and septic is proposed. Streets No new streets are proposed. Both properties have front property lines along Jackie Lane. Proposed Lot 2 is situated at the southwest corner of the intersection of Jackie Lane and Robert Lane. Public Safety Review Public safety reviewed the plans and had no comments. Wetlands A wetland delineation report for the property located at 19701 Jackie Lane was submitted and is being reviewed by the City as the wetland LGU; however, the report did not include the property at 19717 Jackie Lane. Staff has included a condition requiring that the wetland delineation report be updated to include both properties prior to recording the final plat. Section 1050.010, Subd. 5 of the Zoning Ordinance requires wetland buffers and buffer setbacks from delineated wetlands. The buffers around wetlands be planted with vegetation in accordance with Section 1050.010, Subd. 8 (Buffer Strip Vegetation Performance Standards). Staff has included a condition that will require the applicant to comply with these standards on both proposed lots. Assuming the open water on proposed Lot 1 is a low-quality wetland, an average wetland buffer width of 15 ft. will be required in addition to a 15 ft. structure setback from the buffer. If a wetland delineation report finds higher quality wetlands, buffer and setback requirements will be adjusted accordingly. The plans must also be revised to show the wetland buffer monuments. Monuments must be installed prior to release of the escrow. Drainage and Utility Easements Existing Lots 9, 10, and 11 have 10 ft. drainage and utility easements on the shared lot lines that are proposed to be vacated. New drainage and utility easements will be provided along the new common lot line. The vacation will be reviewed at a public hearing at the July 22nd City Council meeting. Gordon’s Country Estates First Addition (21-025) 5 July 22, 2021 Parks and Trails Section 955.020 of the Subdivision Ordinance states, “Park Dedication is only due in cases where additional new parcels are created.” The subdivision will create two lots where two currently exist. Because no new parcels are created by the preliminary plat, a park dedication is not required. Variance The applicant is requesting a variance from the minimum lot size of 20 acres and minimum lot width of 300 ft. required in the UR district. A variance requires that the applicant show that the following standards have been met. A. That there are practical difficulties in complying with the zoning ordinance. The existing lots are legal, nonconforming lots and their combined area is not changing. There is practical difficulty in complying with the zoning ordinance because both properties are legal, nonconforming lots and it is not possible to create conforming lots from the combined area of the two lots. Adjusting the common lot line will not result in any real change to the existing conditions with two legal nonconforming lots. B. That the conditions upon which a petition for a variation is based are unique to the parcel of land for which the variance is sought and were not created by the landowner. The situation is unique to the site as both existing properties are nonconforming today and that condition will not change if the preliminary plat and variance are approved. The conditions for which the variance is being sought were established after the two properties had been developed. The constraints to conform with minimum lot size and lot width were established prior to, and not created by, the current landowners. C. That granting of the variation will not alter the essential character of the locality. The combined area of the proposed lots is not changing and only the shared lot line is being adjusted. The essential character of the locality is being preserved as both lots have been developed and no new lots are being created. D. The proposed variance would be in harmony with the general purposes and intent of the ordinance. The intent of the UR district is to preserve areas where urban services are planned, as shown on the 2040 Comprehensive Plan, but not yet available. City Code describes that the large minimum lot area will assist to retain these lands in their natural state until public infrastructure is available. Proposed Lots 1 and 2 will continue to preserve the urban service area as it exists today. Gordon’s Country Estates First Addition (21-025) 6 July 22, 2021 E. The variance is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. The variance to allow for smaller lot dimensions is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan for Existing Low Density Residential. The density of roughly 1 unit per 2 acres will remain the same, as no new development or lots are being created. F. The City may impose conditions on the variance to address the impact of the variance. Prior to release of the escrow, the shed and fence on proposed Lot 2 will need to be relocated or removed to comply with the 20-foot side yard accessory structure setback requirements in the UR district. Summary Staff finds that the proposed preliminary plat and variance are generally consistent with the City Comprehensive plan and ordinance goals. If the City Council finds that the variance standards have not been met for the variance, they could recommend denial of the variance and provide findings of fact for denial. 6.

WHEREAS, the applicant has also requested approval of a variance from lot size and lot width requirements, and; WHEREAS, the Planning Commission reviewed the preliminary plat and variance at a duly called public hearing, and; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Corcoran City Council approves the request for a preliminary and variance subject to the following findings and conditions: 1. A preliminary plat is approved, in accordance with the plans received by the City on May 18, 2021 and revisions received on May 28, 2021, except as amended by this resolution. 2. Approval of the preliminary plat and variance is contingent upon approval of the requested easement vacation. 3. The requested variance from the lot size and lot width requirements is approved based on the following findings: a. That there are practical difficulties in complying with the Zoning Ordinance. The existing lots are legal, nonconforming lots and their combined area is not changing. There is practical difficulty in complying with the zoning ordinance because both properties are legal, nonconforming lots and it is not possible to create conforming lots from the combined area of the two lots. Adjusting the common lot line will not result in any real change to the existing conditions with two legal nonconforming lots. b. That the conditions upon which a petition for a variation is based are unique to the parcels of land for which the variance is sought and were not created by the landowners. The conditions for which the variance is being sought were established after the two properties had been developed. The constraints to conform with minimum lot size and lot width were established prior to, and not created by, the current landowners. c. That the granting of the variation will not alter the essential character of the locality. The proposed lots are being created where two lots already exist. No new lots are being created. City of Corcoran July 22, 2021 County of Hennepin State of Minnesota RESOLUTION NO. 2021-79 Page 2 of 3 d. The proposed variance would be in harmony with the general purposes and intent of the ordinance. The intent of the UR district is to preserve areas where urban services are planned, as shown on the 2040 Comprehensive Plan, but not yet available. City Code describes that the large minimum lot area will assist to retain these lands in their natural state until public infrastructure is available. Proposed Lots 1 and 2 will continue to preserve the urban service area as it exists today. e. The variance is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and maintains the Existing Low Density Residential designation. 4. The applicant must comply with all conditions in the City Engineers Memo dated June 22, 2021. 5. Prior to release of the escrow, the applicant must relocate or remove the shed on proposed Lot 2 to comply with the 20-foot side yard setback requirements for accessory structures in the Urban Reserve district or adjust the proposed lot line to ensure compliance. 6. The approval is subject to the review and approval of the wetland delineation. a. The applicant shall provide a wetland delineation report for the property at 19717 Jackie Lane. b. The wetland delineation for the plat must be approved prior to final plat application. c. The plans must be revised to show the required wetland buffer, wetland buffer setbacks and wetland buffer monuments on the preliminary plat. d. The approved wetland delineation shall be shown on plans prior to recording the final plat. e. All permanent wetland buffer monument signs must be erected along the wetland buffer line as required by Section 1050.010, Subd. 7 of the Zoning Ordinance. f. Wetland buffer monument signs shall be purchased from the City and must be installed by the applicant prior to release of escrow. g. The applicant is allowed to let the wetland buffer strip grow naturally rather than require new wetland plantings. 7. Approval of the preliminary plat shall expire within one year of the date of approval unless the applicant has filed a complete application for approval of a final plat.

Agenda Item: 8a. TO: Corcoran City Council FROM: Kendra Lindahl, Landform DATE: July 14, 2021 for the July 22, 2021 City Council Meeting RE: Rezoning, Preliminary Plat and Planned Unit Development Application for Van Blaricom and Schober properties for “Amberley and Bellwether” (PID 01-119-23-34-0002 and 01-119-23-43- 0009) (city file no. 21-017) 120-DAY REVIEW DEADLINE: September 8, 2021 1.Description of Request The applicant is requesting approval for a preliminary plat that includes 116 lots that will be part of Bellwether and 76 single family lots that will be platted as “Amberley” subdivision. The land area includes two separate parcels totaling 77.22 acres. The applicant has also submitted a letter on July 13th requesting approval to allow grading prior to final plat approval. This request will be reviewed by staff and placed on the August 12th agenda for City Council review. 2. Background Bellwether (originally Encore) is an active adult neighborhood developed by Pulte under the Del Webb brand. Bellwether is a multiphase development that has received final approval for five out of six phases approved at this time. The Bellwether development was approved with a parks plan that included a large open space park and a smaller neighborhood park in the development near the southwest corner of the proposed Van Blaricom development. 3.Planning Commission Review The Planning Commission held a public hearing to review this item on July 1st. In addition to the applicant, there were four residents who spoke on this item. The Planning Commission voted 4-1 (Shoulak voted nay) to recommend approval of the ordinance rezoning to PUD and voted 5-0 to recommend approval of the resolutions approving findings of fact for the rezoning, the preliminary plat and the preliminary PUD development plan. Following the vote, Commission Lanterman noted that he was unclear on the actions and intended to vote no on all items. Amberley and Bellwether 7th Addition (21-017) 2 July 22, 2021 4. Parks and Trails Commission review The Parks and Trails Commission reviewed this item at their May 20th meeting. They voted to recommend: 1. The sidewalk on “Road 4” shall extend the entire length of the street to connect to “Road 5” adjacent to the park, 2. The final alignment of the trail through the proposed park be determined by the City as part of the final design, 3. The trail shall be moved outside of the wetland buffer, 4. Revise the plans to show that at 15-20 stall parking can be accommodated on site while retaining adequate space for functional park space, 5. The off-road trail shall be given park dedication for the 20-foot trail easement net area per the Park Dedication standards, 6. The city will not accept the park land south of Lot 11, Block 8 as it is separated from the park by wetland, 7. The City will accept the net area of park and trail easement and the remainder as cash in lieu of land to satisfy park dedication requirements. 5. Context Zoning and Land Use The site is zoned RSF-2 (Single Family Residential 2) for the Van Blaricom property and zoned PUD for the Schober property. The Comprehensive Plan designates the properties as Low Density Residential. Surrounding Properties All the surrounding properties are in the MUSA (Metropolitan Urban Service Area). The property to the east and south are part of the Bellwether development and are guided Low Density Residential and zoned PUD (Planned Unit Development). The properties to the north and west are guided Existing Residential and are zoned UR (Urban Reserve) and PUD as part of Bellwether. Natural Characteristics of the Site The west side of the Van Blaricom property has a large emergent wetland that leads into the center of the property according to the Natural Resource Inventory Areas map (Map 1-7) in the Comprehensive Plan. A portion of the site is also located in the FEMA floodplain. 6. Analysis A. Level of City Discretion in Decision-Making The City has a relatively high level of discretion in approving or denying a rezoning application. The proposed zoning for a property must be consistent with the City’s Comprehensive Plan. If the proposed Amberley and Bellwether 7th Addition (21-017) 3 July 22, 2021 zoning is not consistent with the Comprehensive Plan, the City must deny the rezoning application. The Zoning Ordinance and Map are the enforcement tools used to implement the goals and standards set in the Comprehensive Plan. The City has a relatively high level of discretion in approving PUDs. A PUD must be consistent with the City’s Comprehensive Plan. The City may impose reasonable requirements in a PUD not otherwise required if the City deems it necessary to promote the general health, safety and welfare of the community and surrounding area. The City’s discretion in approving a preliminary plat is limited to whether the proposed plat meets the standards outlined in the City’s subdivision and Zoning Ordinance and the conditions of preliminary plat approval. If it meets these standards, the City must approve the plat. B. Consistency with Ordinance Standards Staff has reviewed the application for consistency with Comprehensive Plan, Zoning Ordinance, Subdivision Ordinance and City Code requirements, as well as City policies. The City Engineer’s comments are incorporated into this staff report, the detailed comments are included in the attached engineering memo and the approval conditions require compliance with the memo. The entire property is proposed to be included in this PUD but it will included two separate neighborhoods: i. The Schober property and the southeast portion of the Van Blaricom property will be part of the Bellwether development homeowner’s association and these 116 homes will have access to all of the Bellwether amenities. ii. The northwest portion of the Van Blaricom property will be part of the “Amberley” neighborhood and these 76 homes will not be part of the Bellwether association. No street connection is provided between the neighborhoods which will help make this distinction. However, a trail will connect the two neighborhoods. Rezoning to PUD The Schober property at 19319 Stieg Road was platted as Lot, Block 4, Bellwether 2nd Addition. The property was planned to be included in a future phase of Bellwether and was zoned PUD. No rezoning is required for this portion of the site, but it will be subject to the PUD for this project, which are proposed to be based on the standards approved as part of the Bellwether approvals. The Van Blaricom property is proposed to be rezoned from RSF-2 to PUD. This property includes land that will be included in the Bellwether development and land that will be single family lots in Amberley. The lot standards are discussed in the preliminary PUD development plan section of this report. The Zoning Ordinance has established a PUD zoning district with the purpose of promoting a creative and efficient use of land by providing design flexibility in the development of residential neighborhoods and/or nonresidential areas that would not be possible under a conventional zoning district. In this Amberley and Bellwether 7th Addition (21-017) 4 July 22, 2021 case, the developer is requesting PUD flexibility primarily for lot size and setbacks and architectural standards. The City must review this request for compliance with the PUD standards as follows: 1. The planned development is not in conflict with the Comprehensive Plan. The planned unit development is not in conflict with the Comprehensive Plan. The proposed pre- development density of 2.70 units per acre is expected to be within the 3-5 units per acre required in the Low Density Residential land use classification when calculated with post-development numbers at final plat. The plan incorporates the homes, trail, park and infrastructure anticipated within the site. 2. The planned development is not in conflict with the intent of the underlying zoning district. The planned development of 192 single family homes is consistent with the intent of the RSF-2 zoning district, which allows single homes. The applicant is requesting approval of PUD zoning for design flexibility to allow for modification to the architectural standards, provide a mix of lot sizes and reduced setbacks for this neighborhood at a density consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. 3. The planned development is not in conflict with other applicable provisions of the City’s Zoning Ordinance. The development is not in conflict with other applicable provisions of the Zoning Ordinance, except that PUD flexibility is requested as noted in the staff report. In exchange for this flexibility, the developer will provide both internal infrastructure needed to support their development, land for the City well and water tower sites, park land, off-site improvements on Stieg Road, turn lane improvements on County Road 116, and trunk infrastructure improvements that will serve a larger development area and increased amenities for Bellwether residents. 4. The planned development or unit thereof is of sufficient size, composition, and arrangement that its construction, marketing, and/or operation is feasible as a complete unit without dependence upon any other subsequent unit or phase. The planned development is feasible without dependence upon any other subsequent phase. The project is a continuation of the existing Bellwether development and development is contingent upon completion of trunk infrastructure improvements and water service. 5. The planned development will not create an excessive burden on parks, schools, streets and other public facilities and utilities which serve or are proposed to serve the planned development. With the improvements required by the feasibility study, the development will not create an excessive burden on parks, schools, streets and other public facilities and utilities which serve or are proposed to serve the planned development. The developer is providing public trails consistent with the City’s Amberley and Bellwether 7th Addition (21-017) 5 July 22, 2021 Comprehensive Plan and dedication of additional City park to add to the dedication from earlier Bellwether additions. 6. The planned development will not have an undue and adverse impact on the reasonable enjoyment of the neighborhood property. The planned development is a residential neighborhood developed consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and, therefore, will not have an undue and adverse impact on the reasonable enjoyment of the neighborhood property. The development will be on the low end of the 3-5 units per net acre planned for this property. 7. The quality of the building and site design proposed by the PUD plan shall substantially enhance the aesthetics of the site, shall demonstrate higher standards, more efficient and effective uses of streets, utilities and public facilities, it shall maintain and enhance any natural resources within the development, and create a public benefit that is greater than what would be achieved through the strict application of the primary zoning regulations The quality of the site design proposed by the PUD shall substantially enhance the aesthetics of the site, install and provide more efficient use of streets, utilities and public facilities than may otherwise be expected and create public benefit that is greater than would otherwise be achieved due to the construction and financing of all related infrastructure improvements. The development will meet the City’s density goals while providing land for city park, well and water tower needs, providing trails and quality architecture. The Zoning Ordinance states that “the rezoning of the property defined in the development plan shall not become effective until such time as the City Council approves an ordinance reflecting said amendment, which shall take place at the time that the City Council approves the final development plan.” The Council should approve the rezoning to be effective at such time as the final PUD development plan is adopted. Preliminary PUD development plan The PUD offers enhanced flexibility to develop the site through the relaxation of most typical zoning district standards. The PUD allows for a greater variety of land uses, construction phasing and a potential for lower development costs. In exchange for this flexibility, the City expects a higher level of design, more sensitive development or more significant infrastructure improvements than might otherwise be required. All of the homes proposed in this development will be single-family homes. The eastern 116 homes will be for active seniors as an expansion of the Bellwether development, which is an age-restricted community that provides a wide range of property management services and recreational amenities to its seniors. The properties are managed by a homeowner’s association that provides yard and snow maintenance and are restricted by covenants that require at least one person in the household to be 55 Amberley and Bellwether 7th Addition (21-017) 6 July 22, 2021 or older. No children are allowed to live in the community. The community is served by a recreational community center. The western 76 homes will be standard single family homes. They will not be part of the Bellwether association and will not have access to the private amenity center in the development. Lot Standards and Setbacks The plan shows villas that will be marketed to a 55+ age buyer. These villas are connected to the Bellwether development by street extensions from 102nd Place and 103rd Avenue. The development on the south side of the Van Blaricom property will be incorporated into the existing PUD and will be managed by a homeowner’s association. The Amberley single family homes are not connected to the Bellwether development. These lots will have separate access from Stieg Road. These homes will not be part of the Bellwether HOA. The Bellwether development used the RSF-3 (Residential Single Family 3) lot standards as the framework for the PUD. The proposed lot standards for the project would vary between the Bellwether and Amberley portions of the proposed PUD as shown in the following table: RSF-3 Zoning Amberley (Van Blaricom) PUD Bellwether PUD Minimum lot area 7,500 sq. ft. 9,156 sq. ft. 5,000 sq. ft. Minimum lot width 65 feet 65 feet 44 feet Minimum Principal Structure Setbacks: Front, From Major Roadways* 100 feet 100 feet 100 feet Front, From all other streets 20 feet 25 feet 20 feet Front Porch (≤ 120 sq. ft.) 15 feet 15 feet 15 feet Side (living) 10 feet 7.5 feet 5 feet Side (garage)** 5 feet 7.5 feet 5 feet Rear 30 feet 30 feet 20 feet Maximum Principal Building Height 35 feet 35 feet 35 feet Minimum Driveway depth 22 feet 22 feet 22 feet *Major Roadways are Principal Arterial, A Minor Reliever, A Minor Expander and A Minor Connector Roadways as shown on the 2030 Roadway Functional Classification map in the 2030 Comprehensive Plan. **Minimum separation between structures on adjacent parcels shall be 15 feet. The Amberley portion of the PUD has lots that range in size from 9,156 – 24,826 sq. ft with an average lot size of 11,526 sq. ft. The 15-foot required side yard setback between buildings is met by requiring Amberley and Bellwether 7th Addition (21-017) 7 July 22, 2021 7.5-foot setbacks rather than 5- and 10-foot setbacks. All lots in this portion of the PUD would comply with the intent of the RSF-3 standards used as the baseline when evaluating the Bellwether PUD. However, it would require PUD flexibility from the 11,000 sq. ft. minimum lot size and 80-foot minimum lot width required in the existing RSF-2 zoning on the Van Blaricom property. Staff supports the requested flexibility as the lot sizes are consistent with the intent of that district and are generally consistent with the RSF-3 district standards. Staff notes that the front yard setback applies to all lot frontages. Corner lots are required to meet the front yard setback on both streets. While the Zoning Ordinance allows a 20-foot front yard setback, it does so with the understanding that the garages will be setback from the front home elevation, thereby allowing adequate driveway space. Section 1060.060, Subd. 5 of the Zoning Ordinance requires that the driveway be at least 22 feet in length between the front of the garage and the street, roadway or sidewalk; and “not impede pedestrian or traffic circulation or access to any other dwelling unit, nor shall it adversely affect the ability to provide public utilities or public safety.” It is not clear from the plans provided by the applicant if the driveways comply with this requirement. The final PUD plans must include house pads and driveways to ensure compliance with city standards. Driveways must allow remain outside of the 5-foot drainage and utility easement on the side lot lines The site plan provided by the applicant also shows that in some cases driveways may encroach into the 5-foot setback at the lot line. Staff recommends that driveways comply with the 5-foot side yard setback to ensure that driveways remain outside of the City’s drainage and utility easements. Details of the driveway dimensions and setbacks have not been provided by the applicant. Staff has included a condition that the applicant provide details of the driveway and house pads that demonstrate compliance with the setbacks and length as part of the final plat and final PUD plan submission. Design Requirements The applicant has three widths of homes (34-foot, 45-foot, and 50-foot wide homes) that have the option of being finished with a total of 11 different floor plans and five different architectural styles for each of the home widths in the Bellwether portion of the development. The applicant has provided elevations for all combinations, but there are limited details. The applicant will be required to submit the additional elevations and floor plans with the final plat and final PUD plan application. The Amberley neighborhood will have different home plans (Baldwin, Greenfield, Hilltop, Riverton and Westchester). The plans generally appear to comply with the architectural standards, but more information is required. The applicant will be required to submit the additional elevations and floor plans with the final plat and final PUD plan application. • The preliminary house plans have been submitted and are available at city hall, but due to the size (151 pages) have not been included in this packet. Amberley and Bellwether 7th Addition (21-017) 8 July 22, 2021 Since the products may change in the course of the build-out, additional home plans may be considered. Any changes or updates to the architectural elevations or plans provided to the City must be approved by City staff to ensure compliance with PUD approvals. The RSF-3 district is subject to the design standards listed in Section 1040.040, Subd. 8 of the Zoning Ordinance. The applicant is requesting PUD flexibility from several of these standards, as noted below. Section 1040.040, Subd. 8, A. Front Elevation Materials: The Ordinance specifies a range of material types (excluding vinyl), and requires a minimum of two different materials. If the applicant wishes to use vinyl siding on the front elevation, they must provide a minimum of three different material types. The code states that no more than 75% of one type of exterior finish be used on the front elevation. The plans provided by the applicant comply the requirements for front elevations. The applicant’s narrative states that all front elevations will have cultured stone, vinyl siding, LP trim, upgraded garage doors, and Fypon accents. The homes include variations of the wall face using pilasters, columns, wainscots, canopies and other architectural elements. Pulte offers customers five different product lines that feature different floor plans per product line, which comply with Section 1040.040, Subd. 8, A 4. The code requires that the percentage of each used material/style of materials used shall be shown on the plans. Updated plans must be submitted to ensure compliance. This same section states “Homes in proximity to each other shall not look alike in terms of the combination of color of siding, accent and roofing materials. The home under consideration will be compared to the two homes on each side and to the three homes directly facing it.” The applicant will be required to comply with this standard when applying for a building permit for the individual homes. Section 1040.040, Subd. 8, B. Garages: The ordinance allows garages to comprise no more than 55% of the viewable ground floor, and requires that the garage doors be architecturally styled to match the exterior design of the home. The garages shown in the elevations are integrated into the architecture of the building. The applicant is requesting PUD flexibility to allow the garages in Bellwether to comprise more than 55% of the viewable ground floor. The applicant’s narrative indicates that while seniors do not require increased areas for living space, they still require standard garages with space for two cars and other equipment such as golf carts. A portion of the product line (the 40-foot wide homes) offered will comply with this standard, but most of homes offered will not comply. The Bellwether master plan included approval of this flexibility with the condition that upgraded garage doors are added. The intent of the code is to limit the amount of garage that faces the street so that emphasis is placed on the living space of the house where more architectural features / interest is expressed. Staff recommends the same flexibility be allowed for this addition. Amberley and Bellwether 7th Addition (21-017) 9 July 22, 2021 No garage flexibility is requested for Amberley and it appears that all homes can comply with these standards. This percentage must be provided with the final plans to confirm compliance. Section 1040.040, Subd. 8, D. Other Elevations: The ordinance requires equal architectural treatment on all sides of the building when located on or visible from a street or public park. Specifically, the ordinance requires any elevation facing a street or public park to use two different materials or styles that are compatible with the front elevation. PUD flexibility is being requested from this standard. The applicant states that it is difficult to incorporate two materials on the rear of the single story, narrower home type and proposes either banding board with shake siding near the roof or banding board with different colored siding above and below the banding board. • Staff agrees that meeting this standard can be difficult with a single level home, but that adding wider window trim and a band board can address this requirement. The applicant has provided a graphic showing the proposed locations of the architectural upgrades, shown below. The green dots (and the blue dot added by staff) are lots where there are two fronts equal architectural treatment is required. The applicant is requesting that the lots with the red dots not be required to comply with standard and that they only be required to provide 4-inch vinyl trim around windows on side and rear elevations and will have either a banding board with shake siding or a contrasting color of lap siding. The landscape plan shows an upgraded landscape plan along Stieg Road (4-5 trees) in the rear yard. In the previous additions of Bellwether, this flexibility was allowed with an additional 5-foot rear setback and similar landscaping. Staff would support continuing this flexibility as requested, however, the City Council should provide direction. Amberley and Bellwether 7th Addition (21-017) 10 July 22, 2021 Figure 1 Architectural Design Flexibility Requested Utilities The site is a water tower search site. The available sites for water tower development were identified in a feasibility study and two were identified, one of which is in the southwest corner of the Van Blaricom property. This would be evaluated as part of the feasibility study. The applicant’s narrative and plans indicates that they will be providing land for a new city water tower and a new city will in the proposed public park. Municipal water is not currently available to the site. The Bellwether development has access to water from the City of Maple Grove, however, the agreement that allowed this does not extend to the proposed development. The City Administrator has met with the City of Maple Grove, and the City of Maple Grove has stated it would be open to moving where the water is needed in Bellwether and could be open to expanding water service. This issue was evaluated as part of the feasibility study prepared by Stantec in March 2021. The developer’s plans are consistent with the ultimate city plans, but confirmation of the water connection either to the Corcoran or Maple Grove system is required prior final plat approval. The site can obtain sanitary sewer service from the Bellwether development. Amberley and Bellwether 7th Addition (21-017) 11 July 22, 2021 Transportation and Access The streets are a mix of 50- and 60-foot street rights-of-way. This complies with the approved Bellwether plans and resolutions and City standards. Access to the new villas would be from an extension of the existing roads within the Bellwether development. Access is proposed for the new single family homes with two new curb cuts off Stieg Road. The plans show upgrades to Stieg Road in front of the subdivision and improvements to CR 116 as required by the feasibility study. The developer has indicated that they are unable to fund all of the improvements shown in the feasibility study and has requested that costs be limited to improving Stieg Road to the western extent of the project in the full three-lane urban section and reduce the improvement to a paved version of the existing street section for the remainder out to CR 116. The City Engineer has reviewed the transportation issues and the request from Pulte in the attached memo dated July 14th. Staff recommends option 3, which would allow Pulte to construct the ultimate Stieg Road design adjacent to their project and allow the two lane upgrades out to County Road 116. The applicant will be responsible for securing the necessary permits from Hennepin County. Stormwater Stormwater is managed on site. However, in addition to on-site management the City Engineer recommends a $100,000 contribution to off-site improvements in lieu of a stormwater utility fee. Public Safety Public Safety has reviewed the plans and has no comment at this time. Wetlands The wetland delineation has been approved. The subject wetlands are ranked on the National Resource Communities Quality Rankings map as medium quality. The plans must clearly show the wetland, wetland buffer and wetland buffer setback. Wetland buffer monument signs must be shown in compliance with Section 1050 of the Zoning Ordinance. All wetlands must be blanketed by a drainage and utility easement. Floodplain FEMA floodplain exists on site and must be modified through the formal FEMA process after completion of the project. Amberley and Bellwether 7th Addition (21-017) 12 July 22, 2021 Landscaping Landscape plans show one tree in front of each house. These trees are allowed in the right-of-way on streets with a 60-ft. right-of-way and were required to be placed outside of the right-of-way on streets with 50-ft. rights-of-way. Additionally, the plans include upgraded landscaping at the entries off Stieg Road and behind the homes that abut Stieg Road. The plans do not show any monument signage at this time. Development signage is allowed at the entrance in compliance with Section 84 of the City Code. Parks and Trails The plan is showing sidewalks on one side of all public streets as required; however, staff recommends that the sidewalk on “Road 4” extend the entire length of the street to connect to “Road 5” adjacent to the park. A trail shall also be constructed on the south side of Stieg Road to ultimately extend to County Road 116. The plans show a trail connection through the new park. The final alignment should be determined by the City as part of the final park design and should provide access to the city water tower site and well house. The City engineer recommends that the well house be located near the street rather than in the park as shown. The trail extends from the park as an on-road trail until it wraps around the north side of wetland #2 and the west property where it is an off-road trail until it reaches Stieg Road where it will connect with a planned on road trail. The City requires an 8-foot wide trail in a 20-foot wide easement. The segment between “Road 4” and the “Road 1” cul-de-sac is shown 12 feet wide to serve as a trail and an emergency vehicle access. The trail plan is generally consistent with the City’s trail plan adopted as part of the Comprehensive Plan. However, there are several areas where the trail is in the wetland buffer. The plans should be revised to shift the trail outside of the wetland buffer. Trails are not structures and do not have to meet the wetland buffer setback requirements but must remain outside of the buffer. It appears this could be accommodated through wetland averaging in most cases, but a trail easement over a few lots will be required to accommodate the trail. Three Rivers Park District is continuing to work to finalize the alignment of the Diamond Lake Regional Trail corridor and has expressed a desire extend that trail through the Van Blaricom property. Staff will continue to work with the applicant, the TRPD and the Parks and Trails Commission to finalize a trail alignment through this property. The TRPD trail is generally a 10-foot wide trail in a 20-foot easement. The Comprehensive Plan showed a Community Park and Bellwether deeded 8.93 net acres of land for that park. The Plan also showed a neighborhood park and Bellwether 5th Addition dedicated 3.20 net acres for a portion of the neighborhood park. This development would dedicate the remainder of the Amberley and Bellwether 7th Addition (21-017) 13 July 22, 2021 land for this neighborhood park and proposes dedication of 6.81 net (8.36 gross) acres and nearly an acre of that would be for the water tower and well sites. The City will design the park in the future and has not committed to any of the uses shown on the Pulte park exhibit. Original Park Plan from Preliminary Approvals Proposed Van Blaricom Development Neighborhood parks are intended to service residents within ¼ - ½ mile but will likely serve a larger area. Therefore, the City should consider a small parking lot in the park. The City Code does not establish parking standards for public parks. The 5.13-acre Wildflower Park in Ravinia has no on-site parking but relies on on-street parking where the developer provided 10 stalls on the street adjacent to the park. There is no opportunity to provide that type of bump-out parking for Bellwether because the park is tucked behind homes. A review of industry sources provides a wide range of criteria for parking standards: • The Institute of Transportation Engineers “Parking Generation, 4th Addition” book suggests 2.6 parking stalls per acre for a neighborhood park. This neighborhood park would be 7.7 acres, which would require 20 parking stalls. • The American Planning Association “Parking Standards” book reviews standards from cities across the country and suggests one space for each ½ acre of developed park area up to 15 acres and one space for each additional acre in excess of 15, which would require 15 parking stalls. Staff recommends that some off-street parking be provided on site. A lot of 15-20 spaces would seem to be appropriate for a neighborhood park of this size. Access to the community park would also be available from the amenity center and future parking would be provided on the southwest portion of the site when the final phase is constructed. The Parks and Trails Commission recommended that the developer to revise the concept plan to show how the parking could be accommodated on site. Amberley and Bellwether 7th Addition (21-017) 14 July 22, 2021 The Comprehensive Plans note that neighborhood parks typically range in size from 5-20 acres in size. The land proposed in this phase and the 5th addition would be approximately 10 net acres. Neighborhood parks are encouraged to be located near community parks to expand the function of all types of open space. Community parks are intended to be 20-100 acres and the Community park dedicated with Bellwether and planned to be dedicated with the final phase would be approximately 12 acres. The City will review the final park dedication area after the land south of Lot 11, Block 8 is removed from the park dedication calculation (because it is separated from the park by wetland and is unusable) and the plans are revised to show the parking, public works features and park features or whether more land should be taken to meet the park dedication requirements. This could be finalized with the final PUD development plan. The ordinance requires 15% of the land (or a combination of land/cash) in a development to be dedicated as park land. This site has a pre-development net acreage of 72.2, which requires dedication of 10.83 acres of park land. The applicant is proposing 0.96 acres of trail easement plus 6.81 acres of park land for a total of 7.77 acres. The remaining park dedication would be satisfied with a cash payment. The applicant’s current proposal would result in: 1. 7.77 net acres of park land (satisfies 72% of the park dedication requirement) and 2. $248.801.25 cash-in-lieu ($4,628 x 192 units x 0.28) (28% of total park dedication). The applicant has other numbers in their narrative. The Parks and Trails Commission recommendations will result in changes to the plan and final park dedication calculations will be evaluated as part of the final PUD application. The City should accept park dedication in the form of land where shown on the maps. The City may accept cash-in-lieu of land if park dedication requirements are not met by the park and trail dedication. Final park dedication area calculations (net and gross) must be provided with the final PUD development plan. Preliminary Plat The preliminary plat requests approval of 116 lots in Bellwether. The applicant states that lots will be a minimum of 44, 50 and 60-foot wide lots, but all lots. The ordinance requires a minimum lot width of 65 feet measured at the lot line in the RSF-2 district. The applicant has provided plans that provide 44-foot lot widths measured at the building setback. The lots are generally consistent with the prior Council approvals for Bellwether. The lots in Amberley are generally consistent with the RSF-2 standards with 65-foot wide lots and an average lot size in excess of the 11,000 sq. ft. minimum lot size. Amberley and Bellwether 7th Addition (21-017) 15 July 22, 2021 7. Conclusion Staff finds that with Bellwether portions of the PUD are desirable extension of the existing neighborhood and are consistent with previous approvals. The Amberley portion of the project is consistent with RSF-3 single family standards, except for the PUD flexibility requested from the architectural standards along Stieg Road and the desire to meet the 15-foot separation between buildings with 7.5-foot side yard setbacks rather than 5 and 10 feet. Staff recommends approval of the request subject to the conditions in the attached resolutions. 8.

The planned unit development is not in conflict with the Comprehensive Plan. The proposed pre-development density of 2.70 units per acre is expected to be within the 3-5 units per acre required in the Low Density Residential land use classification when calculated with post-development numbers at final plat. The plan incorporates the homes, trail, park and infrastructure anticipated within the site. 2. The planned development of 192 single family homes is consistent with the intent of the RSF-2 zoning district, which allows single homes. The applicant is requesting approval of PUD zoning for design flexibility to allow for modification to the architectural standards, provide a mix of lot sizes and reduced setbacks for this neighborhood at a density consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. 3. The development is not in conflict with other applicable provisions of the zoning ordinance, except that PUD flexibility is requested as noted in the staff report. In exchange for this flexibility, the developer will provide both internal infrastructure needed to support their development, land for the City well and water tower sites, park land, off-site improvements on Stieg Road, turn lane improvements on County Road 116, and trunk infrastructure improvements that will serve a larger development area and well as increased amenities for Bellwether residents. 4. The planned development is feasible without dependence upon any other subsequent phase. The project is a continuation of the existing Bellwether development and development is contingent upon completion of trunk infrastructure improvements and water service.. City of Corcoran July 22, 2021 County of Hennepin State of Minnesota RESOLUTION NO. 2021-80 Page 2 of 3 5. With the improvements required by the feasibility study, the development will not create an excessive burden on parks, schools, streets and other public facilities and utilities which serve or are proposed to serve the planned development. The developer is providing public trails consistent with the City’s Comprehensive Plan and dedication of additional City park to add to the dedication from earlier Bellwether additions. 6. The planned development is a residential neighborhood developed consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and, therefore, will not have an undue and adverse impact on the reasonable enjoyment of the neighborhood property. The development will be on the low end of the 3-5 units per net acre planned for this property. 7. The quality of the site design proposed by the PUD shall substantially enhance the aesthetics of the site, install and provide more efficient use of streets, utilities and public facilities than may otherwise be expected and create public benefit that is greater than would otherwise be achieved due to the construction and financing of all related infrastructure improvements. The development will meet the City’s density goals while providing land for city park, well and water tower needs, providing trails and quality architecture.

Sumps will be required in all storm structures with drops in of 18” or greater as well as the last accessible structures prior to stormwater basins. 16. No storm sewer sizing or inlet capacity calculation or analysis has been provided. Design will need to provide this for review prior to plat approval. Storm system must be designed for the 10-year event using the rational method. Rational calculations shall be provided to confirm all pipe sizes and inlet capacity. 17. Label clearly on plans EOF’s for all areas where water will be collected including all low areas in roadways and greenspaces. 18. All drainage swales shall maintain a minimum of 2% slope and all sideslopes should be 4:1 or flatter unless approved by the city engineer. All drainage swales less than 2% slope will require a draintile. 19. All walls higher than 4’ shall be designed by a certified engineer and the design and certification of those walls shall be provided to the city. 20. This review assumes that existing model from previous Bellwether Development is accurate, without need for verification. 21. Documentation of composite CN calculations or breakdown of land use per subwatershed should be provided to verify CNs used. Preliminary review of CNs shows apparent inaccuracies. For example, PR-3 land use is essentially either residential, streets, or a pond of which most is considered impervious. Even if the entire area is considered HSG C (was HSG B in existing), the CN should be somewhere between 86 and 98. However, the CN given is only 80. 22. Corcoran Stormwater Guidelines require a summary of the acreage to each discharge point leaving the site. Any increase (or decrease) shall be identified. Modeling currently only provides acreage of each subbasin rather than by discharge point. 23. Pond 1SW, 3SW, and 4SW have a permanent pool of 10 feet or greater. Maximum depth of 8 feet is recommended to prevent thermal and chemo-stratification, with an absolute maximum of 10 feet per the MN Stormwater Manual. 24. No background image file is provided with XPSTORM models. Please provide to expedite review. June 22, 2021 Amberly Kevin Mattson Page 5 of 7 25. XPSTORM models were not validated for all inputs because of its large model size. If any modeling inconsistencies are discovered at a later date, that may impact overall results and project layout. 26. Typical weir coefficients for sharp-crested weirs is ~3.1, while typical weir coefficients for broad-crested weirs is ~2.6. Check XPSTORM model and update as appropriate. 27. Clarify how the 917.0 NWL in Wetland #2 (aka WET-4) was established. No justification is found in the SWMP. Controlling outlet invert across CR-116 is ~913.1. 28. Modeling of 1SW outlet structure is incorrect. Currently modelling as if inlet and weir are running in parallel rather than in series as proposed. Designer should update modeling as appropriate. 29. EOF of Pond SW-1 is missing from model and needs to be added to the model for looking at an Resiliency Analysis (100-yr B2B with primary outlet clogged for 2nd storm) event in relation to the land locked wetland on the Bellwether development. While 100- yr, 24-event does not utilize the EOF, the 100-yr B2B with primary outlet clogged for 2nd storm will likely utilize EOF. 30. Pond 3SW and 4SW should be modeled as 2 separate ponds if normal water level drops below the connecting channel elevation. If updates to SW3 and SW4 result in a NWL above the connecting channel no update is needed. This comment is noted since the permanent pool is above 10 feet and will to be adjusted to a maximum of 10 feet (8 feet recommended). 31. A proposed reduction in HWL in WET-25 of (-)1.3’ indicates the potential for a change in wetland hydrology that may starve wetland for 100-yr event. This impact is even more extreme in the 2-yr and 10-yr events with a (–)1.5 and (-)1.7 changes in HWL, respectively. Please provide justification of how wetland hydrology will be maintained. EX PR Difference 2-yr 931.568 930.066 -1.502 10-yr 932.226 930.575 -1.651 32. Current design of ponds may allow short circuiting. Designer should consider adjusting pond outfall locations to limit this potential. Biggest area of concern is 3SW and the existing Bellwether discharge to modified 1SW. 33. Inlets/Catchbasins are needed upstream of intersections and ped ramps to prevent flow from entering intersection or inundating ped ramp. For example, CBMH E7 should be adjusted SW just south of the ped ramp. CBMH E6, should be moved straight south to prevent inundation of the ped ramp. Please apply this throughout plan set. 34. Corcoran recommends spacing less than 250’ for inlets. This distance is exceeded on many streets. If spacing inlets based on capacity, then provide documentation of analysis. 35. Designer should show Bellwether in full-buildout conditions on plans including grading and storm sewer and all modeling should assume this condition. 36. Stormwater operation and maintenance agreement will be required at time of final plat approval. June 22, 2021 Amberly Kevin Mattson Page 6 of 7 37. Contours lines cannot converge, diverge or end. Proposed contours must match into existing grade. Current grading plans have numerous issues. South end of SW-1 provides good example of these issues. Existing contours offsite should reflect the intended Bellwether development grading not the pre-Bellwether condition. 38. There are two data references noted in the SWMP that were used to inform the analysis, but no documentation was initially provided. The following two documents were requested by Stantec. AE2S provided the modeling for the first document, but not the actual written document. Designer should provide with next submittal: o Unknown Wetland Zone A Floodplain, Bellwether Development FEMA H&H Study (AE2S, January 2020) o Bellwether (Encore) Development SWMP (April 2018, updated September 2020) 39. SWMP must be signed by a professional engineer in Minnesota. Current SWMP is unsigned. Additionally, current SWMP has many minor discrepancies with plan set and modeling. Designer should ensure SWMP is consistent with plan set. 40. CLOMR/LOMR process will need to be followed to assure that floodplain impacts are mitigated as proposed. 41. Floodplain boundary is does not correspond with existing topography. Because of this floodplain extents as well as established BFE must be both considered. 42. It is recommended that stormwater treatment for the Steig Road and Turn Lane improvements be incorporated into the development stormwater design vs attempting to provide treatment in an already developed corridor. 43. The following comments apply to the Bellwether/Schober plans provided. o Provide EOF elevation for Pond #6N o Adjust 946 contour to match spot elevations between lots 2 and 3 Block 2 o Street draintile to be installed per city standards Watermain/Sanitary Sewer 1. Plan and profiles for all utilities shall be provided at the time of final plat submittals. 2. Valve locations to be reviewed at time of final plat. Generally valves shall be located at all intersection as one less valve than the number of legs. Valves should typically be located out from the end radius points unless specific circumstances don’t allow. a. Developer should anticipate modifications to number and location of valves at time of final plat. 3. Hydrant spacing to be reviewed by public safety at time of final plat. 4. 30” trunk sewer to be at 0.08% slope throughout. 5. Verify existing 30” sewer invert at MH21. 6. Plans must show 30” sewer to the southwestern endpoint at property line. 7. Provide 80 ft easement width for 30” sewer exceeding 30 ft depth; shallower depths can have reduced easement width. 8. Construct 30” sewer with Phase 1. a. Developer shall coordinate with city on exact timing. June 22, 2021 Amberly Kevin Mattson Page 7 of 7 9. For 30” sewer, no invert drop should occur through manholes, except at 90 deg bends, where a 0.05 ft drop should be included. 10. For 30” sewer, utilize full-height benches in manholes. 11. Manhole 25 to be shifted north to align with manholes to the east and shifted west to provide adequate spacing from future lot rear yards. 12. Off-site sanitary sewer west of manhole 46 <8’ depth, future grading? 13. All C-900 sanitary sewer to have ductile iron tees and services. 14. Refer to the Van Blaricom Feasibility Study (March 2021), Appendix A, Figure 2, for the City-required trunk watermain locations and sizes (all watermain appears to be 8” on the plans). This must include a 20” water tower stub from the 16” watermain in the street to a point 15 feet beyond the sidewalk. a. Provide easements over raw water corridor. To be coordinated with City. 15. The existing 8” watermain stub on the east side of the park must be connected westward across the park to provide looping. 16. Stub watermain along Stieg Road out of roadway for future connection. 17. Raw waterlines through development will be required. Waterline alignment and sizing being coordinated with feasibility study. Details shall be provided on future submittals. 18. Electrical utility layout shall accommodate 480V, three-phase power being provided to the well site (the water tower only requires single phase, 120/240V). End of Comments Memo To: Kevin Mattson, City of Corcoran From: Kent Torve, City Engineer Steve Hegland, PE Project: Pulte Stieg Road Improvements Proposal Date: July 14, 2021 Exhibits: This Memorandum is based on a review of the following documents: 1. Letter from Pulte Homes Dated June 23, 2021 - Stieg Road Improvements 2. Stieg Road Improvements Figure provided by Sathre-Bergquist Inc. 3 pages no date. Background In April of 2021, Pulte Homes approached the City of Corcoran with a concept plan for the Van Blaricom (now Amberly/Bellwether) Development. As part of the City process, in March of 2021, Stantec on behalf of the City performed a feasibility study on the proposed project to identify any onsite and offsite impacts to the City Infrastructure both existing and proposed. As part of this study, generally the roadway, water supply, sanitary sewer and stormwater systems are reviewed for these impacts. As part of the feasibility study, it was noted that the following improvements/mitigation measures are identified for the ultimate roadway system. County Road 116/Stieg Road • Construct a right turn lane on the northbound approach and a left turn lane on the southbound approach. Stieg Road/west development access/Robert Lane • Construct a right turn lane on the eastbound approach and a right turn lane on the westbound approach. Stieg Road/east development access • Require the eastern access to be constructed at the furthest eastern limits of this plat, which is 0.25 miles east of the west access on the current plan. • Construct a right turn lane on the eastbound approach. Stieg Road • Construct a three-lane urban section from the existing improved roadway, west to County Road 116. • Stormwater runoff from this corridor should be managed within the development as there are homes aligning this portion of Stieg Road and there are no apparent locations to treat runoff. In May of 2021, Pulte Group submitted their preliminary plat application for the Amberly/Bellwether development. On June 23rd as part of their application, Pulte sent a letter to the City Administrator and City Council. In the letter, Pulte states that the current development cannot proceed with the full weight of the costs outlined in the feasibility study and proposes alternate improvements. July 14, 2021 Amberly Kevin Mattson Page 2 of 3 Pulte in their letter proposed the following improvements to the roadway improvements: • Pulte Homes would be responsible to reconstruct the entire section of Stieg Road from the existing improvements to the development’s western plat boundary. • Pulte Homes would be responsible to restripe the existing intersection of Stieg Road and County Road 116 to create southbound turn lanes without pavement widening. • Pulte Homes would be responsible to overlay with bituminous pavement, the remaining section of Stieg Road from the development western plat boundary to County Road 116. Evaluation of the Proposed Improvements Stantec has reviewed the proposed improvements as presented in the letter by Pulte Homes and provided the following review comments on the proposal. Reconstruction of Stieg Road in front of the plat boundary This improvement is consistent with the feasibility study and previous development projects and we recommend it be incorporated into the developer responsibilities for the project. Restripe of Intersection of Stieg Road and County Road 116 At the time of the feasibility study, a warrant analysis was performed on this intersection determining that turn lanes are necessary at this intersection. As these turn lanes would be implemented primarily on County Road 116, these improvements would fall under the jurisdiction of Hennepin County. City staff met with Hennepin County to understand their opinion of any intersection improvements, but they were noncommittal on the level of improvements necessary. Pulte Homes would like to accomplish this safety measure by restriping the existing pavement and not being required to widen the pavement. It is our opinion that turn lanes at 116 are a needed safety improvement. Based on our visual review of this intersection, we feel that may be challenging however as it is a Hennepin County Road, Hennepin County would be the reviewing and approval agency and would ultimately be responsible for identifying the scale of the improvements. Shape and Pave of Stieg Road Pulte Homes has proposed to overlay the remaining section of Stieg Road from their western plat limits to County Road 116 and gravel the shoulders. Their proposal would leave this section as a two-lane roadway with any future improvements being the responsibility of others. We have reviewed the improvements proposed by Pulte Homes and provided the following analysis: • The traffic analysis performed with the feasibility study noted that approximately 400 trips per day would be added to this section of roadway. This is more trips than the existing gravel roadway should accommodate and the roadway should be upgraded to a paved surface. July 14, 2021 Amberly Kevin Mattson Page 3 of 3 • The ultimate roadway design for Stieg Road from County Road 101 to County Road 116 is a three-lane roadway with two drive lanes and a dedicated center lane for left turning traffic. A three-lane roadway is the recommended ultimate roadway design for Stieg Road for safety purposes as it provides a dedicated lane for vehicles to exit the drive lanes and turn safely during times of peak traffic. • Pulte Homes proposal of a two-lane roadway would be able to convey the through traffic along Stieg Road but safety would increase with the ultimate three lane design for the existing homes along Stieg Road. • This stretch of roadway is a Municipal State Aid Route. We recommend that the pavement design (existing roadway section with proposed improvements) be in accordance with the State Aid Design Manual to ensure the roadway is constructed to a certain standard and does not become a maintenance liability. These roadway standards could be accommodated by a shape and pave but the roadway may require additional subgrade improvements in areas to accommodate these standards. It is our understanding that Pulte Homes is performing subsurface analysis of this area which may better define the necessary level of improvements. • We recommend that both right and left turn lanes on westbound Stieg Road onto County Road 116 be provided. • The figure provided by Pulte Homes shows that no right turn lane into the development access at Robert St. is proposed. We recommend a right turn lane into the development be included with the Pulte Homes improvements. • The proposal by Pulte Homes does not address the stormwater management of improvements along this corridor. As homes are abutting this stretch of Stieg Road, the placement of stormwater BMP’s directly adjacent to this roadway will be difficult as they would likely require acquiring property from the existing property owners. Because of this, any stormwater improvements for this roadway should be incorporated within the development plans for the Bellwether/Amberly Plat which has been done with previous developments even if the full road improvements are not implemented at this time. With this section of roadway, we see three alternatives for the City Council to consider: 1. Require Pulte Homes to install the ultimate roadway section of a three lane roadway. They have indicated that the current project could not support this level of improvement, but current policy requires developers to pay for the full cost of upgrading on site and off site infrastructure necessary for mitigating impacts of development. 2. Construct the roadway to the ultimate roadway section of a three lane roadway and require Pulte Homes to contribute the portion of total project costs required to upgrade to a paved two lane roadway and use other funds (City responsibility, 429, etc.) to cover the additional costs for the three lane alignment. 3. Allow Pulte Homes to construct the two lane roadway at this time and identify with a future improvement project upgrading to the ultimate three lane alternative. As noted previously, this project would presumably include some reconstruction of poor subgrade, construction utilizing State Aid standards, and potentially wetland mitigation and stormwater management. Implementing turn lanes on CSAH 116 for Stieg Road would be required.

Bellwether is an active adult neighborhood consisting of 398 homes. Del Webb is an iconic and renowned brand name across the Country that exclusively caters to the active adult 55+ market. Del Webb neighborhoods are extremely popular, high amenity, facilitated lifestyle neighborhoods. Many active adult buyers are searching for a neighborhood with the following attributes: single level homes; homeowner’s association yard maintenance and snow removal; a safe and secure feeling; the attractiveness of a resort; and provides an abundance of social and recreational opportunities. Bellwether has been designed to cater to these buyers. Within Bellwether, we have incorporated the traditional Del Webb neighborhood design characteristics which have been a trademark for decades. The neighborhood vision for Bellwether includes: 1. Entrance experience – At the primary entrance to the neighborhood off County Road 101 (100th Avenue), there is plentiful open space, a large monument, and robust landscaping. 2. Arrival drive – The arrival drive leads the driver directly from the main entrance to the amenity center. The arrival drive consists of a parkway with a wide, heavily landscaped center median and runs immediately adjacent to a wetland, providing beautiful, open views. There are no driveways on the parkway, creating a feeling of luxury, beauty, safety, and a welcoming sense of arrival into the neighborhood. 3. Amenity center – This buyer expects a private amenity center that caters to their recreational and social needs. We have strategically planned this amenity (The Prairie Club) at a central location overlooking the largest wetland on the property. Now complete, the Prairie Club includes a wide variety of recreational and social features and is nearly 12,000 square feet! 4. Trails/Open Space – We used the City’s Comprehensive Plan as a guide for preserving valued natural resources (woods), providing land for an active public park, and designing an interconnected public trail system throughout the neighborhood. 5. A feeling of security – It is very important to this buyer that their neighborhood feel safe and secure. This is accomplished by a variety of intentional design approaches such as buffer plantings in key perimeter areas, parkway arrival drive, sidewalks along every street, a private amenity center for homeowners and their guests, etc. 6. Single level villa homes – The active adult buyer commonly wants to move into a single level home with no or minimal stairs, homeowner’s association-maintained yards/snow removal, and social and recreational opportunities. Buyers can choose from different types of homes, each catering to a different square footage, price point, and location/views. 3 Bellwether has been received extraordinarily well by the buying public. The iconic Del Webb brand has proved to be equally successful in Minnesota as it has across the Country. As a result of this success, we are expanding the neighborhood. Current Application Van Blaricom Property Bellwether was designed to someday include the southern portion of the Van Blaricom property. Viewing the original Bellwether site plan, we designed a “loop road” through the Van Blaricom property. In effect, the Van Blaricom property helps us to connect two separated parts of the overall Bellwether neighborhood. The Van Blaricom property will have two separate neighborhoods with different types of homes. On the southern half, we will complete our plans to build an extension of the Del Webb Bellwether neighborhood with single level villa homes restricted to active adults. The northern half will consist of a modest sized new Pulte single family neighborhood. Schober Property For the original Del Webb Bellwether neighborhood, we bought a large majority of the Schober property. The intention of the Schober family was to stay in their existing single-family home encircled by Bellwether. Over time, their intention has changed. Therefore, this small “infill” property will be converted into Bellwether lots. We originally designed the neighborhood to easily convert this property to Bellwether lots.

We are requesting the Van Blaricom property to be rezoned to PUD. Parks and Trails Park Dedication Land - When Bellwether was approved, we preserved nearly 9 acres of hardwood forest. We also dedicated 4.33 acres of upland for a future neighborhood/community park as outlined in the City Comprehensive Plan. During the approval process, we were instructed to plan for additional dedication on the Van Blaricom property. Our Van Blaricom site plan shows this additional upland park dedication of 6.85 net acres to complete the neighborhood/community park. This park land will partially fulfill our park dedication requirements. Trail – There is one main trail that in the Van Blaricom site. This trail picks up where the first segment of this trail left off at the park in Bellwether. Providing full connectivity throughout the entire Bellwether neighborhood, this trail meanders up through the west side of the Van Blaricom property, ultimately connecting to Steig Road. Credit to park dedication that Pulte would receive for constructing this trail outside of the park area will ultimately depend on its final layout and length. The trail is estimated to be 2,120 feet in length at a cost of $35 per foot this trail is estimated to cost $74,200 to construct. This will act as a credit to park dedication fees. Trail easement – The easement for the trail itself is 20 feet wide by 2,120 long. The easement in terms of acreage is 2,120 x 20 feet = 41,856 square feet = 0.96 acres. This trail easement will also act as a credit to park dedication fees. Park dedication fee – Corcoran’s park dedication ordinance requires 15% of the developable land in park dedication in the form of land and/or park dedication fee. We determine that the in order to meet the City’s ordinance, we will need to dedicate some land and also pay a fee minus credits for the trail and the trail easement. Please refer to tables 1 and 2 for more information. These tables demonstrate how we arrived at the park dedication fee of $264,168. For a graphic depiction of the information regarding the parkland and fee determination please refer to the attachments at the end of this narrative memo. 5 Area and Dedication Area Gross Acres - Van Blaricom 77.22 Wetland -6.2 Steig Road ROW -0.24 Well Site -0.18 Water Tower -0.74 Net Development Area 69.86 Park Dedication at 10% 6.986 Park Dedication at 15% 3 to 5 units per acre 10.479 Park Dedication Area (Acres) Cost Net Area 69.86 15% 10.48 Gross Park/Well/Tower 8.36 Park Area Wetland -1.55 Trail Easement Credit outside of park 0.96 Well Site -0.18 Water Tower -0.74 Net Park Dedication 6.85 Park Dedication Deficit 3.63 Cash Value of 3.63 acres 3.63 $338,368.30 Trail Credit 2,120 LF * $35.0 w/trail in park removed $74,200.00 Net Park Dedication Fee $264,168.30 Trunk Line Area Charge (TLAC) Credits In the northeast portion of the City, the TLAC is $16,789 per acre. The developer is providing land for a well site and a water tower on the Van Blaricom property. The well site is estimated to need 0.18 acre of land and the water tower is estimated to need 0.74 acre of land for a total of 0.92 acres. This amount of land multiplied by the TLAC charge for this area should equate to a credit in the amount of $15,446. Pulte will also be upsizing watermains from 8 inches to 12 and 16 inches and will be given a credit for the watermain upsizing. Our Homes Pulte is known for the extraordinary steps that we take to ensure that we are designing and building homes that meet the needs and desires of home buyers. We continually reach out to the public and Pulte homeowners to get feedback to improve our home designs. We call this 6 Life Tested®. Through this intensive process, we have conceived of and incorporated many innovative home design features such as the Pulte Planning Center, Everyday Entry, Super Laundry, Oversized Pantry, and the Owner’s Retreat. This exhaustive process has played a major part in Pulte’s success in “Building Consumer Inspired Homes and Communities to Make Lives Better.” Northern Van Blaricom – Amberley Amberley will be the name of the single-family neighborhood on the northern portion of the Van Blaricom property. We will build 74 homes on 65-foot lots. The single-family homes will consist of the following floor plans: 1. Baldwin a. 2,459 square feet excluding the basement b. 4 bedrooms / 2.5 bathrooms c. Two-story d. 48 feet wide by 38 feet deep home e. Anticipated sales price in the range of low to high $400k’s 2. Greenfield a. 2,609 square feet excluding the basement b. 4 bedrooms / 2.5 bathrooms c. Two-story d. 48 feet wide by 42 feet deep home e.

Westchester a. 3,300 square feet excluding the basement b. 4 bedrooms / 2.5 bathrooms c. Two-story d. 48 feet wide by 48 feet deep home e. Anticipated sales price in the range of mid $400k’s to high $500k’s Southern Van Blaricom and Schober Properties – Bellwether The homes in the Bellwether extension will be identical to the homes approved by the City with the original Bellwether application and built thereafter within the neighborhood. We offer our updated and popular Del Webb floor plans. Buyers can choose from different product lines of homes with varying sizes, prices, and views/locations. All floor plans will offer five different options for architectural facades and will offer various structural options. 7 44-Foot Wide Lots The homes built on the 44-foot wide lots are 34-feet wide and range in size from 1,300 to 1,700 square feet. There are three different floor plans to choose from. These smaller floor plans are very popular for singles/widows/widowers in our active adult neighborhoods. They typically have two bedrooms and a two-car garage and are built slab on grade (no basements). Valuations of these homes start in the mid $300k’s. 50-Foot Wide Lots The homes built on the 50-foot wide lots are 40-feet wide and range in size from 1,680 to 1,960 square feet (excluding basements). There are four different floor plans to choose from. These homes are typically the largest selling homes in our active adult neighborhoods across the country. The homes typically have two bedrooms and a two-car garage but are versatile and can offer many options such as a third bedroom, a bonus room, and/or a finished basement. Valuations of these homes start in the low $400k’s. 60-Foot Wide Lots The homes built on the 60-foot lots are a similar product line as for the 50-foot wide lots. However, all of homes have basements and three-car garages. Roof pitches are increased to provide an additional level of architectural distinction. These homes are 50 feet wide. The lots are in the premium locations with the most attractive views. Valuations of these homes start in the mid $400k’s. Architecture During the 2018 Bellwether approvals, we worked closely with City staff on our architecture. The agreed upon approach was to provide different patterns and/or materials on front elevations. For instance, stone was included on all front elevations. Siding material was vinyl. In high visibility areas, we upgraded rear elevations to include window trim and side elevations to include a banding board and different colors or materials above and below the banding board. With this application, we are continuing with the same design approach for both Bellwether and Amberley. Please see the attached elevations and architectural upgrade map. Amenities – The Prairie Club One of the primary hallmarks of a Del Webb neighborhood is the extraordinary level of amenities included in the neighborhood. Bellwether is no exception. We are providing the same level of amenities as other similar sized Del Webb neighborhoods across the nation. The homes in the Bellwether portion of this application will be members of the existing private amenities. The nearly 12,000 square foot Prairie Club opened for use in October 2020. It contains a lounge, ballroom, fitness center, locker rooms, multi-purpose rooms, a craft room, an indoor pool, and a commercial grade kitchen. Surrounding the building is pickleball courts, bocce ball courts, an outdoor pool, a tiki bar, and a fire pit gathering area. When originally planning the amenities, we intentionally sized them to accommodate the additional homes included in this application. A couple of example photos are shown below. It is truly an extraordinary facility. 8 9 10 11 Phasing & Schedule The following preliminary schedule is envisioned based on current information and the below preliminary phasing plan.

BL#BC627273 June 23, 2021 City of Corcoran Attn: Brad Martens and City Council 8200 County Road 116 Corcoran, MN 55340 Re: Stieg Road Improvements Dear Brad and Honorable City Council: PulteGroup is proud of the work we’ve done in creating the beautiful and successful Del Webb Bellwether neighborhood. We have followed through with every commitment we have made to both the City and to our home buyers. The neighborhood is satisfying a strong need for an active adult lifestyle in the northwest metro area. Our current application before the City is intended to expand this neighborhood in an effort to continue to provide this needed housing. The purpose of this letter is to discuss Stieg Road improvements, an issue that threatens the ability of this application to move forward. Background Stieg Road has been identified by the City as a Municipal State Aid (MSA) road, meaning it connects county or state roads and acts as a regionally important route. When Bellwether was originally approved by the City in 2018, Stieg Road (see Exhibit A) was entirely gravel from CSAH 116 to CSAH 101. The intersection at CSAH 101 was skewed and not ideal from a safety standpoint. As part of the original Bellwether improvements, Pulte reconstructed and realigned nearly half of the length of Stieg Road and added turn lanes on CSAH 101. This work was completed at Pulte’s cost. No other property owners were required to contribute to these improvements. Due to the large size of the land being developed (226 acres), Pulte was able to absorb these improvement costs. The Current Application – Bellwether & Amberley We recognize that the City is collecting MSA funds related to Stieg Road. These funds are used to reconstruct MSA streets within the City. However, we assume that the City desires to have new development pay for the entire cost of reconstructing Stieg Road which enables all existing homeowners in the region to benefit from these improvements at no cost to them. Pulte’s current application to develop the Van Blaricom property consists of 73 acres. This is not enough development property to finance the entire remaining work on Stieg Road (see Exhibit A). The current application cannot proceed with the full weight of this cost allocated to  Page 2 this moderately sized property. If the current application cannot proceed, it is our belief that the remaining developable properties in the area are also too small to bear the full weight of the remaining Stieg Road reconstruction costs. Burdening any one property with this cost will lead to no development along Stieg Road and no improvements. The Solution The most effective approach to accomplish the goal of having development pay the full cost of reconstructing Stieg Road is to spread the burden among the remaining developable properties. The City has two options for proceeding along this path: 1. Initiate a public improvement project and assess the benefitting properties - This is the option discussed in the staff report for the June 24, 2021 City Council meeting. Under this scenario, the City chooses which properties benefit by what amount and undertakes a public assessment process. The advantage of this option is that all benefitting properties are assessed so it is the fairest approach. The disadvantage of this option is that it requires City bonding to finance the project and it oftentimes results in public opposition to assessments. 2. Equitably spread the work among properties as they develop – The advantage of this option is that it eliminates the need for City bonding and eliminates public opposition to assessments. We can think of no disadvantages to this option. We have listened to concerns expressed by City staff. Gravel roads require more maintenance than paved roads. As we understand it, eliminating this gravel section of road is a goal of the City. In our attempt to satisfy this concern, to meet other City goals, and to equitably distribute the remaining improvements, we have arrived at the following approach for the current application. Pulte will: 1. Reconstruct part of Stieg Road – Pulte will pay for reconstructing Stieg Road from the current newly reconstructed end point west to the west Van Blaricom property line (see Exhibit B). A standard in the industry is that developers pay for the half of the road that they are adjacent to. We are proposing to pay for both sides of this section of road. 2. Overlay the remaining section of Stieg Road – We will overlay the remaining Stieg Road with new bituminous pavement from the west Van Blaricom property line west to CSAH 116. We will also add gravel to the shoulders. This will dramatically reduce the amount of maintenance on the current gravel road and will extend the life of this section of road until other properties in the area develop. 3. Restripe intersection – Pulte will restripe the intersection of Stieg Road and CSAH 116 to create northbound and southbound turn lanes. This would significantly increase the safety of this intersection. Hennepin County would need to approve this solution and we would need the City to advocate for this solution. The above combination of Stieg Road improvements is significant. It increases the amount of completely reconstructed road from 45% to 75%. It reduces maintenance for both the reconstructed section and the overlay section. It also greatly improves safety at the intersection of Stieg Road and CSAH 116. It also sets the City up to complete all permanent Stieg Road improvements in the future as other properties develop.  Page 3 Benefits Utilizing the above solution will benefit Pulte. We have created a neighborhood that is serving a strong demand among active adults in the area and we are very interested in expanding the neighborhood in a very logical and orderly manner. Utilizing the above solution benefits the City in the following ways: 1. An additional 30% of Stieg Road is reconstructed at no cost to the City, thereby eliminating some additional high maintenance gravel road surface. 2. The remaining 25% of Stieg Road will be overlayed with bituminous at no cost to the City, thereby improving the surface, lessening maintenance, and buying time for future reconstruction in conjunction with other properties developing in the area. 3. Improving the safety of the intersection of Stieg Road and CSAH 116 at no cost to the City. 4. Payment of water impact fees which will help finance the City water system. 5. Dedication of a water tower site for the City water system. 6. Dedication of a well site for the City water system. The approach outlined above also benefits surrounding properties and regional properties by not burdening any of them with the expenses associated with improving a regionally important MSA road. We have worked very hard to find a way to meet the City’s goals and to enable this application to proceed. The solution outlined in this letter achieves these goals. We realize that you will not specifically be voting on the preliminary plat application and the associated Stieg Road improvements until the July 22nd City Council meeting. We respectfully request that the City Council consider the mutually beneficial solution outlined in this letter. We also request City advocacy of this approach when communicating with Hennepin County (restriping of the intersection) and with the City of Maple Grove (amending the water agreement). Thank you for your consideration of this issue.

Sincerely, Brad Martens City Administrator City of Corcoran 763-400-7030 www.ci.corcoran.mn.us From: Mike Whitehead <m5white@hotmail.com> Sent: Thursday, June 24, 2021 10:46 PM To: Brad Martens <bmartens@ci.corcoran.mn.us> Subject: July 2 2021 Council Meeting regarding The Bellwether Development 6/3/21, Amended 6/24/21 Mike and Lisa Whitehead 19725 Stieg Road Comments for Corcoran public hearing about VAN BLARICOM & BELLWETHER Development Corcoran’s vision statement, “The City of Corcoran will become a vibrant, connected community while preserving its natural character and agricultural roots.” is one of the reasons I moved here. The natural character around my home are 10 acre lots adjacent to me and 1.6 acre lots in the neighborhood just to my north. The hundreds of Agricultural acres to the east of me that is part of the VAN BLARICOM & BELLWETHER development plan was zoned agricultural when I moved in and I accepted all of these conditions. Somewhere around 2006 the city drafted a long term plan that showed high density housing along the western edge of the proposed development. I went to the city hearing about this change to voice my opinion and proposed that the high density lots be placed along 101 and the lots adjacent to the current 10 acre lots (19715, 19725 and 19801 Stieg Road) along the western border of the development be Low density to more closely align with established lots. With this proposed plan the people buying new homes in the development area know exactly what they are getting in to and the current property owners get to keep the type of neighborhood they signed up for. I further suggested that there should be a transition zone at least two houses deep along the western border of the new development that would be comprised of at least 2.5 acre lots for the closest row and 1.5 acre lots for the next row (for reference, there are 9 lots between 116 and the western edge of the proposed development area west to east and between Stieg Road and Hunters Ridge north to south totaling 104 acres with an average of 11.5 acres per home). This was well received by the city and the Land Use Plan was changed to reflect Low density along the western border and commercial/high density along 101 to the east. I presented this plan again during the first hearing for this BELLWETHER development and I would like to present it once again for these next VAN BLARICOM & BELLWETHER phases. It is not that I thought the cornfields would be there forever. I expected the land to be sold and built into a residential area that aligned with the cities Vision Statement and current zoning. Like me, the Developer knew what the zoning of this land was and accepted it as acknowledged by their purchase of it. It seems once again they have gambled that they could get all of their concessions, including rezoning, to maximize their profit at the expense of the existing local property owners. Another concern about the proposed development is that the city has acknowledged that high density populations are the least beneficial to the tax burden due to the cost of additional services necessary to support them. The city has indicated that the new property tax revenue falls short of supporting these added expenses. If this is all true, why would the city allow more of these high density developments to this area? Regarding plans other than housing density I agree that the developer should be asked to pay for finishing all of Stieg road and that we will need turn lanes on 116 to handle the increase in traffic onto Stieg Road. We may also find we need a right turn on Stieg Road going into 116 like there should be at Co Rd 30 and 116. I am also concerned the wetland evaluation indicates that “Wet 25 discharged overland (west) towards the large Wet 4 complex” per attachment A. Wet 4 is part of my backyard. It does not mention the drain field that was installed approximately 8 years ago that drains part of the proposed development area directly into the Wet 4 wetland. We lost about 2.5 acres of land to water after this was installed and unusual growth now occurs due to the runoff. I contacted the land owner as the trenches were being dug and he indicated that he had no idea what was going on. It turns out he was renting the land out. I then challenged the people operating the excavating equipment and they said they were just maintaining existing runs of drain field. I asked them to show me a single piece of old tile, which was nowhere to be seen, and they just got in their trucks and left. Since they were not replacing existing lines I do not believe adding these was legal. I did raise my concern to the city as the trenches were being dug but the pipe went in the next day just the same. I believe all existing drain tile should be rerouted away from the wetland and to the holding areas shown on the proposed plan to restore the equilibrium of the wetland and preserve it. In conclusion, when I asked several neighbors if they were going to go to this hearing the response was unanimous… “I don’t think it will make any difference” or “do you think it will make any difference?” Needless to say, this is disappointing but not unwarranted considering the people living on Hunters Ridge did not get the transition area or reduction in population density to address their concerns. It is not that the city doesn’t listen at all. I have been to many city meetings and usually find the council members and the Mayor are open to opinions presented by the public and favorably act on them. It does however seem they are less willing when it comes to big ticket items like these. In conclusion I am hopeful that the Mayor and Council members will put the opinions of the people who elected them to look after their best interests before those who are trying to bolster their business profits at the expense of the existing residents and the adjoining neighborhoods.

TO: Corcoran City Council FROM: Kendra Lindahl, Landform DATE: July 15, 2021 for the July 22, 2021 City Council Meeting RE: Planned Unit Development (PUD) Plan Amendment and Recapture Agreement for “Tavera” (PID 35-119-23-41-0002) (city file no. 21-023) REVIEW DEADLINE: April 22, 2021 1.Application Request The applicant, Lennar, has requested approval of a PUD amendment for to increase the total number of units in Tavera from 549 to 551, to reduce the architecture standards approved as part of the PUD and allow larger real estate signage than permitted by the City Code. Additionally, the applicant is requesting to enter into a recapture agreement for the trunk sanitary sewer that will be constructed to serve this project. 2.Background On June 25, 2020, The City Council approved the Comprehensive Plan Amendment, Rezoning, Preliminary Plat and Preliminary PUD Development Plan for “Tavera”, a 549-unit a mix of single- family, villa, twinhome and townhome units. On January 25, 2021, Hennepin County approved lot division for the Wessel property. The lot split did not require City Council approval because lot splits that create parcels a minimum of 20 acres with 500 feet of frontage on a public street are exempt from subdivision by MN Statute. The split created two parcels and the proposed phase 1 development is on the northern parcel. On April 8, 2021, the Council approved the final plat and final PUD plan for the first addition, which included 33 single family home lots. 3.Analysis of Request Staff has reviewed the application for consistency with Comprehensive Plan, Zoning Ordinance, Subdivision Ordinance and City Code requirements, as well as City policies. The City Engineer’s comments are incorporated into this staff report, the detailed comments are included in the attached engineering memo and the approval conditions require compliance with the memo. A.Level of City Discretion in Decision-Making The Council has a relatively high level of discretion in approving or denying a PUD amendment. A PUD must be consistent with the City’s Comprehensive Plan. The City may impose reasonable Agenda Item: 8c. Tavera PUD Amendment (city file 21-023) 2 July 22, 2021 requirements in a PUD not otherwise required if the City deems it necessary to promote the general health, safety and welfare of the community and surrounding area. B. Consistency with Ordinance Standards Marketing Sign The City Code allows temporary real estate signs up to 32 sq. ft. in area for continuous periods of up to 30 days and up to 4 such periods in any 12 month period. In April, the City received a complaint about a large sign (100 sq. ft.) that had been installed on the Tavera property on County Road 116. We contacted Lennar, they removed the sign and decided to request a PUD amendment for the sign. They have applied for approval of a temporary sign (4 ft. x 8 ft) that complies with ordinance standards, but would like to replace that sign with a 100 sq. ft. (10 ft. x 10 ft) sign. They note in their narrative that similarly sized signs were installed at Ravinia. That is accurate, however, staff has no record of a building permit being issued for those signs. Permanent development signs in the residential districts are limited to a maximum of 32 sq. ft. and six feet high. Each development is allowed a 32 sq. ft. sign at the primary entrance and an additional 16 sq. ft. sign at secondary entrances. Signs in the non-residential districts are limited to one sign a maximum of 64 sq. ft. and 16 feet high. As part of the PUD approvals, Lennar was allowed one 32 sq. ft. sign at the County Road 116 entrance, one 16 sq. ft. sign at the Hackamore Road entrance and a future Corcoran gateway sign at the corner of Hackamore/CR 116 but details were to be finalized with the City when that phase is proposed for development. A review of other cities found that no city reviewed allows a 100 sq. ft. sign as proposed by Lennar. Plymouth does allow up to 96 sq. ft., but other cities limit signs to 32, 60 or 64 sq. ft. City Standards Champlin One temporary sign is permitted for the purpose of announcing or promoting a residential subdivision development provided that the residential subdivision contains at least six lots. Such sign shall not exceed 64 square feet and shall be permitted until the subdivision is 90 percent sold out. Chanhassen • On-premises real estate signs advertising the sale, rental or lease of the premises upon which the sign is located. • One nonilluminated sign is permitted per street frontage. • Sign display area shall not exceed 16 square feet per sign on property containing less than ten acres in area, and 32 square feet per sign on property containing ten or more acres. • No such sign shall exceed ten feet in overall height, nor be located less than ten feet from any property line. Tavera PUD Amendment (city file 21-023) 3 July 22, 2021 City Standards • All temporary real estate signs shall be removed within seven days following sale, lease or rental of the property. • Window signs advertising the sale, rental or lease of a building are permitted subject to the conditions of subsection 20-1265(g). Plymouth Construction Signs. One temporary sign not exceeding a total surface area of 96 square feet, not exceeding 16 feet in height, and not less than two feet above grade. Such signs shall be set back at least ten feet from lot lines. Such signs shall be allowed for three years from the date of original building permit issuance, or until construction in the development is completed, whichever occurs first. Elk River Construction signs. One on-premises, non-illuminated construction sign not to exceed 64 square feet in sign area and 15 feet in height. Signs may be erected 30 days prior to the beginning of construction, and must be removed ten days following issuance of a certificate of occupancy. Vadnais Heights Construction or future development signs. A temporary sign may be erected for the purpose of selling or promoting a residential, commercial or industrial project, provided: • Such signs shall not exceed 60 square feet in area per side; • Only one sign shall be permitted per street frontage upon which the property abuts; • Such signs shall be removed when the project is 80 percent completed, sold or leased or within two years, whichever is shorter; and • Such signs shall be located no closer than 30 feet to any pre-existing residence. Anoka One temporary development real estate sign not exceeding 64 square feet in area and located on the property shall be permitted on each public street frontage of a commercial, industrial, or residential development with ten or more dwelling units for rent or sale. No more than two directional signs not exceeding 32 square feet in area shall be permitted on a collector or arterial street leading directly to such development. Staff does not recommend approval of the 100 sq. ft. temporary sign proposed by Lennar. This is larger than any permanent sign allowed in any zoning district in the City. Our commercial and industrial businesses are limited to one sign not to exceed 64 sq. ft. Staff would not recommend that a temporary sign be allowed that is larger than the 64 sq. ft. permanent sign allowed for Corcoran businesses. Staff recommends limiting the real estate sign to 32 sq. ft. as currently allowed by code. Staff does support the PUD amendment to allow the real estate sign to remain on site during development of the project. The language from the Champlin ordinance seems reasonable and we have included a condition allowing a 32 sq. ft. temporary real estate sign to remain on Tavera adjacent to County Road 116 until 90 percent of the lots in the subdivision are sold. • If the Council wishes to allow a larger temporary construction sign, condition 2.a. of the approving resolution (Resolution 2021-86) could be modified to allow a 64 sq. ft. sign consistent with other signs in Corcoran or 100 sq. ft. as requested by Lennar. Tavera PUD Amendment (city file 21-023) 4 July 22, 2021 Total Unit Count The developer was not able to obtain watershed approval until after the preliminary plat is approved by the City. The Tavera preliminary plat approved 549 lots. After final stormwater design, one of the lots near County Road 116 (shown as either lot 144 or 145 on the attached exhibit) was required to be removed to accommodate storm water and the wetland boundaries on the west side of the site (shown as Lots 549-551 on page 2 of the exhibit) were adjusted to allow three additional lots in that area. These would result in a total of 551 homes on the 273-acre site. Staff supports the increase; however, the plans will be reviewed with final plat/final PUD to ensure compliance with the PUD standards. Architecture The applicant is requesting a PUD amendment to modify the approved architectural standards. All subdivision in Corcoran with single family and twinhomes are subject to the following standards listed in Section 1040.040, Subd 8: A. Front Elevation: 1. Definition: i. For the purpose of this Section, front elevation shall be the elevation facing the front lot line on the street of the mailing address for the property when the property has more than one front lot line. 2. Materials used: i. The front elevation shall have material consisting of brick, stone, stucco, fiber cement board, redwood, cedar or other similar materials. A minimum of two different materials is required, except that brick may be used on the entire elevation. ii. Vinyl siding is permitted when combined with the materials listed in Subd. 8.A.2.i of this Section. A minimum of 3 different variations in color, style and/or material is required. For example, if vinyl siding is used, the home shall have combination of each lap shake or board and batten plus brick or stone. The percentage of each used material/style of materials used shall be shown on the plans. iii. Except for brick, stucco and/or natural or artificial stone, the front elevation shall have no more than 75% of one type of exterior finish. The percentage of materials used shall be shown on the plans. 3. Architectural Elements: i. The front elevation façade shall consist of doors, windows and variations of the wall face with the use of pilasters or columns, wainscots, canopies or other architectural elements. 4. Design: i. Front elevations shall be varied with a minimum of five different styles provided in the development. ii. Homes in proximity to each other shall not look alike in terms of the combination of color of siding, accent and roofing materials. The home under Tavera PUD Amendment (city file 21-023) 5 July 22, 2021 consideration will be compared to the two homes on each side and to the three homes directly facing it. B. Garages: 1. The garage shall not comprise more than 55 percent of the viewable ground floor street-facing linear building frontage. This standard is based on the measurement of the entire garage structure and not on a measurement of the garage door or doors only. Corner lots are exempt from this requirement on one street elevation. 2. Garage doors shall be architecturally styled (this includes details such as raised panels, accent color, windows, etc.) to match the exterior design of the home. C. Roof: 1. Roofing materials including asphalt shingles, wood shingles (including shake), concrete, clay, ceramic tile roofs or residential steel roofing material (with hidden fasteners) are required on all roofs. 2. Overhangs must be a minimum of 12 inches. D. Other Elevations: 1. Equal architectural treatment on all sides of the building (materials, articulation, etc.) shall be used for all new residential construction when located on or visible from a street or public park. Each elevation facing a street or public park should use a minimum of 2 different materials and/or styles compatible with the front elevation as described in this Section. All other elevations shall make a good faith effort to demonstrate that elements of the front elevation have been considered for incorporation on these elevations. 2. Each side elevation shall have at least one window or door opening. 3. A maximum of 18 inches of the foundation wall may be exposed on any elevation. As part of the Tavera Preliminary PUD the applicant requested flexibility to allow up to 75% of the building front to be garage. No other architectural flexibility was requested. The previous Council had many discussions about garage dominant homes and agreed to allow the higher percentage of garage face with the following conditions: a. Garage door colors shall be compatible with the building colors. b. Garage doors shall be architecturally styled (this includes details such as raised panels, accent color, windows, etc.) to match the exterior of the home. c. The garage must not extend in front of the home (including the front porch) on homes that exceed 55% garage face. Staff notes that first two conditions are required by code and the City required the third condition to offset the larger (from 55% to up to 75%) garage face on the homes. Lennar has now requested that this condition be eliminated and as proposed to limit the garage protrusion to 10 feet in exchange for the larger garage frontage. When developers have asked for more garage frontage, the City has typically limited the garage forward design in exchange for that flexibility. Staff does not recommend changing that PUD condition. The garage forward design is allowed for all homes that comply with 55% garage face limit. In exchange for the PUD flexibility to allow more garage frontage, the Council required that garages exceeding 55% frontage not extend in front of the home. These larger garages tend to dominate the front elevation and prohibiting the protrusion limits the impact of the larger garage. Tavera PUD Amendment (city file 21-023) 6 July 22, 2021 The second request is for PUD flexibility in the architectural standards for the front elevations and the condition requiring equal architectural treatment on all four sides of the building. The standards were adopted by the City to avoid blank walls that would make homes look like plain boxes by requiring some design on side and rear elevations. The front elevation standards apply to all new residential developments. When fiber cement siding is used only two materials are required, but the City requires three materials when vinyl siding is used. The applicant has requested that they be allowed to build homes with one color of vinyl lap siding with LP (fiber cement) trim on the front of the home. The two homes below do not comply with the ordinance standards and reflect the architectural flexibility Lennar is requesting. Home 1 • Was approved with two different colors of lap siding and stone (would comply with standards in the ordinance). • Was built with one color of lap siding and stone (does not comply with standards in the ordinance) Home 2 • Was built with one color of lap siding and stone (does not comply with standards in the ordinance) • Shutters, accent trim colors and vent do add interest to the home and were considered a third element when staff reviewed the permit Tavera PUD Amendment (city file 21-023) 7 July 22, 2021 Staff does not believe home 1 meets the intent of the ordinance and is a more significant change that should be considered city-wide as part of an ordinance amendment that is reviewed at the Planning Commission in a public hearing if the City Council believes that the ordinance standards are too restrictive. However, the architectural interest added to that home with the shutters and vents in contrasting colors could be considered the third element as required by the current ordinance. Staff supports modifying the ordinance language as follows: 2. Materials used: i. The front elevation shall have material consisting of brick, stone, stucco, fiber cement board, redwood, cedar or other similar materials. A minimum of two different materials is required, except that brick may be used on the entire elevation. ii. Vinyl siding is permitted when combined with the materials listed in Subd. 8.A.2.i of this Section. A minimum of 3 different variations in color, style and/or material is required. For example, if vinyl siding is used, the home shall have combination of each lap shake or board and batten plus brick or stone. Architectural elements such as shutters or vents in contrasting colors may be considered one of the three required variations. The percentage of each used material/style of materials used shall be shown on the plans. iii. Except for brick, stucco and/or natural or artificial stone, the front elevation shall have no more than 75% of one type of exterior finish. The percentage of materials used shall be shown on the plans. Lennar would also like to eliminate the requirement for “Equal architectural treatment on all sides of the building (materials, articulation, etc.) shall be used for all new residential construction when located on or visible from a street or public park. Each elevation facing a street or public park should use a minimum of 2 different materials and/or styles compatible with the front elevation as described in this Section. All other elevations shall make a good faith effort to demonstrate that elements of the front elevation have been considered for incorporation on these elevations.” Staff believes that some upgrade to the elevations facing streets and park is important to retain and other elevations continue the accent elements from the front to the rear. We do not recommend any relaxation of this standard. However, if the Council believes that the architectural standards in the ordinance are too onerous for developers, they should direct staff to prepare an ordinance amendment for consideration. It could be brought to Council for consideration and then scheduled for a public hearing at the Planning Commission and adoption by the Council later this year. Recapture Agreement The developer will be constructing trunk sanitary sewer to serve this project. The sanitary trunk line will be available to serve other properties, but the full cost will be borne by Lennar. For both Ravinia and Bellwether where significant trunk sewer was constructed and paid for by the developer, the City Tavera PUD Amendment (city file 21-023) 8 July 22, 2021 approved a recapture agreement that allows the developer to recapture some of those costs. If the other benefiting properties develop within the period of recapture agreement, the City would collect the standard TLAC (trunk line area charge) and pass those fees through to Lennar (less an administrative fee). Staff recommends approval of the recapture agreement. Conclusion Staff supports some, but not all, of the additional PUD flexibility requested by Lennar. The attached resolution reflects staff’s recommendation, but the Council should modify the draft resolution if they believe more PUD flexibility is warranted. 6.

May 28, 2021 Honorable Mayor & Councilors City of Corcoran, MN 8200 County Rd 116 Corcoran, MN RE: Tavera PUD Amendment Dear Mayor McKee: Lennar is submitting this request for a PUD amendment for Tavera for three main items: a change in unit count, a request for some relaxation on architectural requirements, and the ability to install Lennar’s typical marketing sign as community development gets underway. This first two requests are due to adjustments that occurred during final engineering and wetland permitting, and changes that have occurred recently in the marketplace regarding continued material and labor costs and shortages. These PUD requests are summarized in more detail below. Marketing Sign The marketing sign request is to allow for a sign that is more legible from the perimeter of the project and is larger than what is currently permitted Corcoran’s sign code. It should be noted that this is the same size marketing sign that has been and is currently used at Ravinia, and is Lennar’s standard practice and sizing for communities throughout the Twin Cities that are underway. This sign is temporary in nature and is typically updated as construction of the community takes place. The sign serves as a crucial piece of Lennar’s marketing platform to direct traffic into the community to generate sales. Total Unit Count The Preliminary Plat and PUD for Tavera was approved in 2020 with 549 homesites. However, due to final design and stormwater modeling requirements, 1 homesite was removed, bringing the total unit count to 548. Then, during the final wetland permitting process, the City and wetland regulators found that wetlands U and V on the northern Dempsey parcel could be subject to indirect impacts. Rather than risking construction damage to them, an additional mitigation requirement for Lennar to purchase additional wetland credits was enacted by the wetland regulators. Because the additional impacts will end up costing approximately $134,000 in additional wetland credits, Lennar would like to use the area(s) in question to add 2 more homesites into the neighborhood and offset this cost. This would bring the overall unit count in the community to 551 and would also total over $730,000 in wetland credit purchase dollars for the entirety of Tavera. Purchase agreements have already been executed with 3 different banks and our first credit purchase valued at over $500,000 has already occurred. The remaining credit purchases will occur in 2022 prior to construction due to the impacts being located on the north side of the community. Architecture City Code Section 1040.040, as well as previous approvals in Ravinia & Tavera, stipulate 2 major architectural themes with somewhat restrictive standards: 1. No protruding garages when the garage makes up more than 55% of the front façade 2. Equal architectural treatment on all elevations require color & texture changes on all sides of the homes, as well as additional accents like window grids, shutters, band boards, decorative brackets, and brick or stone accents. It should be noted that the “garage forward” rule is not codified in the City’s Zoning Code; it is a PUD requirement that was imposed on Ravinia and carried over to Tavera. Lennar understands that City does not want a garage-dominated streetscape, and Lennar has met with and talked to various members of City staff and Council. It is not in our best interest to build homes that are unsightly, and our designers make sure to incorporate many different architectural elements that will attract customers to purchase our homes. We have had much success with some garage-forward products throughout the Twin Cities and would like the opportunity to construct them in Tavera. Lennar proposes allowing garage protrusions of 10 feet or less. To soften the appearance of the garages, we would incorporate handles, decorative brackets, and windows, as was done in Ravinia. From the street, these garages will not appear to dominate the streetscape and will also allow for some of Lennar’s most desired floorplans to be constructed without significant re-work and construction cost increases. Regarding architectural colors and materials on all 4 sides of the home, it is Lennar’s position that that intent of the architectural standards in the City’s Zoning code is to avoid monotony, as well as encourage builders to use a variety of architectural elements to keep home facades and streetscapes interesting and aesthetically pleasing. Lennar’s designers work hard to ensure that our standard color packages are desirable and provide a value to prospective buyers. We would like to relax this standard and be allowed to use our standard color packages that typically specify a minimum of 1 color with LP trim on the front of the home, and carry that color around the other 3 sides of the home with vinyl wrap around the windows, which is still a minimum of 3.5 inches wide and will still frame the windows nicely. This would save on additional construction costs for siding and wood fiber window trim that are typically not realized by and passed on to the homeowner. It is estimated that the pricing difference between Lennar’s standard color and materials packages and Ravinia’s color and materials packages range from an additional $2000 - $5000 per home. Put simply, most residents would rather use these dollars to upgrade the interior of the homes, rather than having standards imposed on the exteriors that result in additional costs that are not typically tangible or usable to the homeowner. For these reasons, we are requesting some relaxation to the architectural standards as we move forward with Tavera. To be successful in any business one must be willing to make changes and respond to site or market conditions. Flexibility is key. We believe these minimal changes to the PUD will allow the opportunity to deliver the quality that Lennar is recognized for throughout the metro and will allow sales to start strong and foster a sense of community that brings new residents into the City of Corcoran. We thank the City of Corcoran for its consideration and appreciate your support as we continue to move forward with Tavera. Regards, Paul J.

This Certificate shall be prepared under seal by a professional engineer retained by the Developer at its expense and shall include the following items: (a) The total actual costs of the New Facilities broken down by eligible recapture items, unit prices, quantities, and unit description. (b) The total actual Eligible Expenses to be recaptured from the Benefited Properties. (c) PIN, common address and owner of record of each Benefited Property; (d) The total acreage of the Benefited Properties and the acreage of each Benefited Property; 5 (e) The amount of the recapture obligation for each Benefited Property. 7. ENFORCEMENT (a) Form of Enforcement Action This Agreement may be enforced by any appropriate action at law or in equity. The laws of the State of Minnesota shall govern this Agreement. This Agreement shall not be enforced so as to vest in the Developer an ownership or possessory interest in any real property, roadway, water main, sanitary sewer, or other item of personal property owned or claimed by the City; nor shall this Agreement be enforced so as to abrogate any right or interest Developer may have under applicable law in or to the aforesaid real and personal property. No action may be brought to enforce this Agreement or any lien or claim arising under the Recapture Ordinance more than twenty-five (25) years after the effective date of the Recapture Ordinance. (b) Demand and Cure No action shall be brought to enforce this Agreement unless the complaining party shall have first made written demand of performance on the other party and shall have provided a thirty (30) day period in which to perform as demanded. Demand and cure shall not be a condition precedent to an enforcement action against a Benefited Property, Benefited Party, or other party of interest. (c) Limited Recourse It is understood and agreed that the City’s obligation to reimburse the Developer shall be limited to funds actually collected for TLAC fees paid by the owners of the Benefited Properties as provided herein, and provided that the City has performed its obligations under this Agreement, 6 payments made hereunder shall be made solely out of said funds.

Council Meeting: July 22, 2021 Prepared By: Brad Martens Topic: Conditional Uses in Zoning Districts Action Required: Direction Summary: For the past several months, Council has discussed how best to regulate conditional uses in zoning districts. Most recently at the June 24th meeting, staff was directed to schedule a public hearing at the August 5th Planning Commission meeting to consider amendments. Since that time, Mayor McKee has drafted the attached memo outlining the potential for enhancing performance standards for non-residential uses in residential zoning districts as opposed to eliminating the uses in certain districts. Mayor McKee is requesting that the Council consider this approach as well. Staff is requesting the Council provide direction to staff on how to proceed with these two different approaches. If there is support for proceeding with performance standards for consideration, it is recommended that the public hearing at the Planning Commission be pushed to September 2nd so staff has sufficient time to prepare information for the commission to consider. Financial/Budget: Ordinance updates are paid for out of the planning budget which is on track to be significantly over budget at this time. Additional review will incur costs; however, it is most important to have ordinances that reflect the policy view of the City Council. Options: 1.Direct staff on how to proceed with ordinance updates. Recommendation: 1.Staff continues to recommend the use of performance standards to regulate non- residential uses in in residential zoning districts rather than removing them. This is however a policy decision for the City Council. Council Action: Direct staff how to proceed with ordinance updates. Attachments: 1.Consideration of Performance Standards/Code Amendments for Non-Residential Uses in Residential Zoning Districts 1 To: Corcoran City Council and Planning Commission From: Tom McKee Date: For July 22nd, 2021 City Council Meeting and August 5th, 2021 Public Hearing Re: Consideration of Performance Standards/Code Amendments for Non-Residential Uses in Residential Zoning Districts 1. Request The Council has discussed several potential options to address Non-Residential Uses in Residential Zoning Districts and has prepared one option (Conditional Use Realignment) for a Public Hearing on August 5th, 2021. This report will present another option – Performance Standards – for discussion at the July 22nd City Council Meeting, and if approved, consideration at the August 5th Public Hearing. 2. Background On October 22nd, 2020 Council held a worksession to discuss potential ordinance amendments to address non-residential uses in residential zoning districts. In preparation for that meeting, Staff prepared a report discussing some potential options, including removing these uses from residential zones entirely, altering which zoning districts should or should not allow these uses, and implementing performance standards to manage the impact of these types of uses in residential districts. While there has been discussion amongst both previous and current Council members about removing these uses from residential and adding them to commercial or industrial zoning districts, there were other members who preferred implementing performance standards. Additionally, it was the recommendation of staff to pursue the performance standard route to address this issue. For the initial worksession, staff prepared several potential performance standards for non-residential uses in residential zones. These included: - Requiring direct access to a Major Roadway, and potentially on Minor Collector Roadways - Increasing primary structure setbacks from all property lines - Increasing parking lot setbacks from all property lines - Limiting maximum impervious surface to 50% of the site (requiring the remainder to be landscaped or left in a natural state) 2 Additional performance standards such as a direct size limit on buildings, parking lots, and maximum seating capacity in residential zoning districts have also been discussed, but were generally not recommended by the city attorney due to potential RLUIPA (Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act) concerns. On June 24, 2021, the Council directed staff to schedule a public hearing at the August 5th, 2021 Planning Commission meeting to discuss and receive public input on the proposed conditional use realignment option initially presented at the May 13, 2021 Council meeting. This report discusses the option of implementing additional performance standards for non-residential assembly uses in the RSF-1, RSF-2, RSF-3, RMF-1, RMF-2 and RMF-3 zoning districts. 3. Analysis: After reviewing the staff reports and discussions from the October 22nd, May 13th & June 24th Council Meetings, as well as RLUIPA case law and zoning ordinances from numerous municipalities, I have prepared some potential performance standards for consideration. If the Council is generally in support of these standards, there are several areas (outlined on pages 12-13) that should be discussed and evaluated in more detail. Staff and the city attorney have recommended that if performance standards are adopted for non-residential assembly uses in residential zones, similar standards should be adopted for other assembly uses in residential districts. In Corcoran, the only non-residential conditional uses in residential zoning districts allowed by code are Places of Worship/Assembly and Educational Facilities, K-12. (See chart on pages 3-6). The additional list provided by staff of different places of assembly include: Community Centers, Conference Centers and Reception Halls, Public and Private Clubs and Lodges, Schools - leasing space, Technical, Vocational, Business and College/University satellite facilities/schools, Theatre, Trade Schools, Seminaries and Higher Education Facilities. However, none of these are allowed as either a permitted or conditional use in RSF-1, RSF- 2, RSF-3, RMF-1, RMF-2 or RMF-3. I believe that these additional Performance Standards could be the framework for a solution that adequately addresses concerns about the impact of large non-residential conditional uses in residential zoning districts. Most importantly, the implementation of these standards would still allow these assembly uses to go into the same residential zones (as well as C-2, GMU and P-I) that our city code allows today. These performance standards would both help mitigate the impact that larger non-residential assembly uses have on surrounding residents and help guide future projects into locations that are best suited to meet their size, parking, and infrastructure needs. 3 Corcoran Zoning Ordinance Use Matrix 4 5 6 7 Suggested Performance Standards For All Non-Residential Assembly Uses in Residential Zoning Districts – (RSF-1, RSF- 2, RSF-3, RMF-1, RMF-2, & RMF-3) Performance Standards: Minimum Principle Structure setback - Front, from all Major Roadways: 100 feet o For buildings up to 10,000 sq ft ▪ Beyond 10,000 sq ft, the setbacks increase 7.5 feet for every 1,000 sq ft of additional building size, this setback is capped at 750 feet - Front, from all other streets: 100 ft o For buildings up to 10,000 sq ft ▪ Beyond 10,000 sq ft, setback increases 7.5 feet for every 1,000 sq ft of additional building size, this setback is capped at 750 feet - Side: 100 feet o For buildings up to 10,000 sq ft ▪ Beyond 10,000 sq ft, setback increases 7.5 feet for every 1,000 sq ft of additional building size, this setback is capped at 750 feet - Rear: 100 feet o For buildings up to 10,000 sq ft ▪ Beyond 10,000 sq ft, setback increases 7.5 feet for every 1,000 sq ft of additional building size, this setback is capped at 750 feet - Maximum Building height: 24 feet o Maximum building height may be increased up to a maximum of 35 feet with increased setbacks at the following rates: ▪ 1 foot of increased height for every 5 feet in additional setback, up to 29 feet (25-29 feet), and ▪ 1 foot of increased height for every 10 feet in additional setback, up to 35 feet. (30-35 feet) o Note: ▪ This setback is in addition to building size setback requirements ▪ 1030.080 - Height Limitations Subd. 1 states: “The building height limits established herein for the district shall not apply to the following… C. Church Spires… E. Cupolas and domes which do not contain useable space… G. Flag Poles… (This would not change) 8 EXAMPLES: In a residential zone, a 10,000 sq ft building that is 24 feet tall would have a setback of 100 feet. A 10,000 sq ft building that is 28 feet tall would have a setback of 120 feet → 100ft + (4*5ft) A 10,000 sq ft building that is 35 feet would have a setback of 185 feet → 100ft + (5*5ft)+(6*10ft) - Maximum Impervious Surface: 50%. All other areas shall be landscaped or left in a natural state. - Parking Lot setbacks: o All parking lots shall have a minimum setback of 100 feet from all property lines ▪ Above 25 parking spaces, each additional space requires 1 additional foot setback – This setback is capped at 500 feet. • For setback purposes, total number of spaces on site determines lot size o Access Drives, driveways and aisles shall not be allowed to intrude into a required parking setback except at the access point. EXAMPLE: A parking lot in a residentially zoned property with 25 spaces would have a 100 foot setback, a lot with 45 spaces would have a 120 foot setback, and a lot with 200 spaces would have a 275 foot setback. - Parking Lot Screening/Landscaping: o The light from automobile headlights and other sources shall be screened whenever it may be directed onto residential windows. o When required parking areas abut any residential district, the edge nearest the lot line shall be completely screened to a height of at least 5 feet (5’) above the parking grade. Such screening shall either be accomplished through use of earth mounds and/or landscape materials as approved. o When the design of the site is such that parking occurs in the front yard, or in a side or rear yard abutting residentially zoned property, a minimum of twelve feet (12’) landscaped area shall be provided o Screening shall be required in residential zones where: 9 (a) any off-street parking area contains more than four (4) parking spaces (b) where the driveway to a parking area of more than four (4) parking spaces is within thirty (30) feet of an adjoining residential use or zone. (c) The screening required in this section may consist of a fence, trees, shrubs and berms not less than five (5) feet high but shall not extend within fifteen (15) feet of any street or driveway. (d) The screening shall be placed along property lines or in case of screening along a street, twenty (20) feet from the street right-of-way with landscaping between the screening and pavement. The screening shall block direct vision. Planting of a type approved by the City Council may also be required in addition to or in lieu of fencing. Additional Parking Lot Landscaping Standards: o A minimum of 8% of the total land area within parking areas shall be landscaped o Landscaping at least 12 feet in width shall separate parking lots into cells of no more than 120 stalls. o Landscaping shall break up rows of parking approximately every 20 spaces Street Access: A) Site shall have direct access onto a Major Roadway (Defined as Principal Arterial, Minor Reliever, Minor Expander and Minor Connector roadways), or B) Direct access onto a Minor Collector roadway no more than 1,000 feet from an intersection with a Major Roadway as identified in the Comprehensive Plan, so that access can be provided without conducting significant traffic on local residential streets. Examples of road classifications in Corcoran: o Hwy 55 is Principal Arterial o 116 is a Minor Reliever 10 o 101 and 30 are Minor Expanders o 19 and 50 are Minor Connectors o 10 to Meister Rd. (over to 116) are Major Collectors o Larkin, Hackamore, Stieg, Rolling Hills Rd, and more (See map) Other/Misc. Performance Standard Provisions: 1. No exterior bells or loudspeakers 2. The City Council may require compliance with any other conditions, restrictions, or limitations it deems to be reasonably necessary to protect the residential character of the neighborhood. 3. The project shall comply with all conditional use permit standards in Section 1070.020 of the Zoning Ordinance 11 For reference, here is our existing code on Parking Requirements: 1060.060 Parking and Loading -Minimum Parking Requirements for Public Facilities for gathering, including places of worship/assembly, theaters, civic centers, auditoriums and stadiums are calculated on page 232 of the Corcoran City Code as follows: - One space for every 4 seats, based on the design capacity of the facility or as noted in Subd. 4(B)3 of this section. -Subd. 4(B)3. In Stadiums, sports arenas, places of worship and other places of public assembly in which patrons or spectators occupy benches, pews, floor space or other similar seating facilities, each 18 inches of such seating facilities shall be counted as one seat for the purpose of determining parking requirements. Minimum parking requirements for Educational Facilities, elementary and Jr. High: - One space per classroom plus one additional space for each 50 students. Auditorium and special event space shall be calculated separately. Minimum parking requirements for Educational Facilities, High School and Post-Secondary - One space per classroom plus one space for each 7 students based on design capacity. Auditorium and special event spaces shall be calculated separately. 12 Summary/Discussion Points 1. Primary Structure Setback for Non-Residential Uses in Residential Zoning Districts a. Tiered relative to building size b. Is 10,000 sq ft the appropriate baseline building size? c. Is 7.5 feet of setback per 1,000 sq ft (beyond 10,000) the right ratio? d. Should this setback be capped at 750 feet? 2. Maximum Building Height a. Tiered relative to building height i. Overall maximum height in these zoning districts would stay the same (35ft) b. Is 24 feet the appropriate baseline building height? c. Is the ratio of 5 feet of setback per 1 foot (from 25-29 feet) and 10 feet per 1 foot (from 30-35 feet) appropriate? 3. Maximum Impervious Surface a. 50% i. Note: -These uses are currently also allowed in the C-2 and GMU Zoning districts, which have a maximum impervious surface of 80%, as well as P-I which has a 70% limit. 4. Parking a. Should parking requirements for these uses be amended, or are they appropriate as currently written? 5. Parking Setbacks a. Tiered relative to parking lot size (number of spaces) b. Is 25 spaces the appropriate baseline size? c. Is 100 ft the right starting point for parking lot setbacks? d. Is the ratio of 1 foot of setback per additional parking space (over 25) appropriate? e. Should this setback be capped at 500 feet? 6. Parking Lot Landscaping a. Are these standards helpful in making larger parking lots in residential zones fit in with the surrounding residential uses? i. If so: 1. Is 8% total parking lot land area landscaped the right amount? If not, higher or lower? 2. 12 feet of landscaping creating max cells of 120 spaces – right numbers? 3. Landscaping breaking up rows every 20 spaces – is 20 the right number? If not, higher, or lower? 13 7. Landscaping/Setback Reduction a. Should there be a possible reduction in setback for additional (total) screening around a site? i. If so, how should this be defined/what should the standard be? 1. What should the reduction in Primary Structure setback be, if any? b. Should there be an allowed setback reduction if a property abuts a more intense land use on one side? i. For example, if a property abuts a residential zoning district on 3 sides, and a commercial or industrial zoning district on the other – should the setback from the property line abutting Commercial/Industrial land be reduced? 1. If so, how much? ii. If so, should this setback reduction be tied to additional landscaping, perhaps resulting in a higher percentage reduction than a standard additional landscaping reduction (if there is any)? 8. Street Access a. Should we require direct access onto a Major Roadway (as defined in the Comprehensive Plan)? b. Should we also allow direct access on Minor Collector roadways if it is within 1,000 feet of an intersection with a Major Roadway? i. If so, is within 1,000 feet of an intersection with a Major Roadway the right distance? 9. Anything else? a. Are there any other Performance Standards that should be included?

Identified as the Diamond Lake Regional Trail, it will travel 20 miles through Dayton, Rogers, Corcoran, Medina, Long Lake, Orono and Wayzata. The vision for the trail is a 10-foot-wide paved, multi-use trail that will connect natural areas, other regional trails in the Three Rivers system, and local parks and trails. Trail uses include biking, hiking, dog walking, running, and in-line skating. PLANNING TIMELINE This is a long-term master plan process, not an imminent construction project. The master plan will be reviewed and approved by city councils in all seven communities, the Three Rivers Park District Board and the Metropolitan Council before acquisition or development can begin. Right-of-way acquisition for the trail is done on a willing seller basis, which may take many years or decades to complete before trail construction can be considered.

Council Meeting: July 22, 2021 Prepared By: Brad Martens Topic: City Council Resignation and Declaration of a Vacancy Action Required: Approval Summary: Councilmember Manoj Thomas has issued a resignation notice to the City Council. The reason for the resignation is attached to this report in his email. The notice was received July 16, 2021. Also attached to this report is a resolution honoring Councilmember Thomas, and an article on vacancies on a statutory city council. While Corcoran is a Charter City, the Charter is silent on the issue which determines statute is followed. The process when a City Council resignation takes place is as follows: 1. Accept the resignation. 2. Declare a vacancy. 3. Fill the vacancy. Minnesota Statue 412.02 subdivision 2a is applicable: Vacancy. Except as otherwise provided in subdivision 2b, a vacancy in an office shall be filled by council appointment until an election is held as provided in this subdivision. In case of a tie vote in the council, the mayor shall make the appointment. If the vacancy occurs before the first day to file affidavits of candidacy for the next regular city election and more than two years remain in the unexpired term, a special election shall be held at or before the next regular city election and the appointed person shall serve until the qualification of a successor elected at a special election to fill the unexpired portion of the term. If the vacancy occurs on or after the first day to file affidavits of candidacy for the regular city election or when less than two years remain in the unexpired term, there need not be a special election to fill the vacancy and the appointed person shall serve until the qualification of a successor. The council must specify by ordinance under what circumstances it will hold a special election to fill a vacancy other than a special election held at the same time as the regular city election. Due the timing of the vacancy taking place prior to the City Council filing period, the Council may appoint someone until a special election is held to fill the remaining term. Staff recommends the special election be held at the general election on Tuesday, November 8, 2022 to avoid incurring costs of holding an additional election. There is no specific procedure for the appointment process with the only requirement being that the person appointed be qualified to serve. The process is entirely up to the discretion of the City Council however the attached guidance states “…a City must Page 2 make its best effort to appoint a person to fill a council vacancy and cannot choose to leave a council position vacant until the term expires.” Financial/Budget: Not applicable. Options: 1. Accept the resignation and approve the resolution honoring Councilmember Manoj Thomas effective July 16, 2021, declare a vacancy, and discuss the preferred process for appointing a qualified successor. Council Action: 1. Consider a motion accepting the resignation of Councilmember Manoj Thomas effective July 16, 2021 and declare a vacancy for that position. 2. Consider a motion to adopt resolution 2021-88 honoring outgoing Councilmember Manoj Thomas. 3. Discuss the preferred process for appointing a qualified successor. Attachments: 1.

Vacancies on a Statutory City Council From:Manoj Thomas To:Tom McKee; Brad Martens Subject:Resignation - Thomas Date:Friday, July 16, 2021 9:44:59 AM Hi Tom and Brad, With the economy reopening, my work has intensified and I am traveling around the country more often than not. I am out for stretches of 4-5 days and my presence for council meetings on Thursdays is getting affected by this. I have loved the opportunity to serve my city and be the spokesperson for the residents on the council. My motivation to run for the seat in 2020 was to get a renewed council that was both available and sympathetic to Corcoran residents. With this change in my job requirements, I have come to the conclusion that I need to make way for someone else. Representing corcoran was one of the biggest honors of my life and its a hard decision to vacate my seat. It is also the right thing to do for the city. Hope the city finds a replacement, who will be more local and available for the city. Kindly accept my resignation.

Vacancies on a Statutory City Council ne of your councilmembers sub- mits a written resignation. What do you do? This article answers some of the most frequently asked questions about vacancies on a statutory city council. State law provides that a council vacancy “shall be filled by council appointment” until a special election, if required, can be held (Minn. Stat. § 412.02, subd. 2a). The language of the state law is mandatory. As a result, a city must make its best effort to appoint a person to fill a council vacancy and cannot choose to leave a council position vacant until the term expires. State law does not require a council vacancy to be advertised. However, it is a good practice to provide some notice to the public before the council makes an appointment. This allows interested persons an opportunity to request consideration. Generally, a person must be a United States citizen, a resident of the city, and at least 21 years old to be eligible for appointment to fill a council vacancy. A city employee can be considered for appointment. However, if a city employee is appointed, it is possible that the two city positions may be incompatible. If a city employee is appointed to an incompatible office, he or she must resign from the other city position. A councilmember can be con- sidered for appointment to fill a council vacancy in the position of mayor as long as the councilmember being considered does not participate in the appointment vote. State law provides that the council makes the appointment to fill a vacancy, except in the case of a tie vote, when the mayor makes the appointment. That means all members of the council, including the mayor, can vote on the appointment. However, the council- member who submitted a written resignation should not participate in the appointment vote. As a practical matter, it may be useful to determine who the candidates for appointment are before voting takes place. As long as at least a quorum of the council is present, a majority vote of those present vacancy occurs before the first day to file as a candidate for the next regular city election and more than two years remain in the unexpired term, the city must hold a special election to fill the council vacancy at or before the next regular city election and the person elected will serve out the remainder of the unexpired term. If the council chooses to hold a special election to fill a vacancy at a time other than at the regular city election, it first must adopt an ordinance specifying the circum- stances under which such an election will be held. If a special election to fill a coun- cil vacancy is held at the same time as the regular city election, the names of the candidates for the council vacancy should be placed on the election ballot under a separate heading indicating it is a special election. The election ballot should state the date the term expires and any other information necessary to distinguish the office. The published and posted election notices should include references to the special elec- tion to fill the council vacancy. Finally, state law provides that the terms of elected city officials begin on the first Monday in January following the election. However, the Minnesota Attorney General has advised that a person elected to fill a council vacancy in a statutory city is eligible to take an oath and assume office any time after receiving an election certificate. Susan Naughton is research attorney with the League of Minnesota Cities. is sufficient to make the appointment. State law does not place any limitation on a mayor’s ability to make an ap- pointment in the case of a tie vote. As a result, a mayor can appoint any quali- fied person willing to fill the vacancy even if that person was not the subject of the original appointment vote. When is a city also required to hold a special election to fill a council vacancy? The answer depends on whether filing has opened for the next regular city election and how long is left in the unexpired portion of the term at the time of the vacancy. If the vacancy occurs on or after the first day to file as a candidate for the next regular city election or if less than two years remain in the unexpired term, the city does not need to hold a special election and the appointed person can serve out the remainder of the unexpired term. If the “The language of the state law is mandatory. As a result, a city must make its best effort to appoint a person to fill a council vacancy and cannot choose to leave a council position vacant until the term expires.” STAFF REPORT Agenda Item 10b.
