(CITY FILE NO. 22-015)
esota, LLC (the "applicant") has requested approval to rezone
ollows:
WHEREAS, the Planning commission has reviewed the request at a duly called Public Hearing,
and;
WHEREAS, the City Council has adopted an ordinance rezoning the affected parcels to
Planned Unit Development (PUD);
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
CORCORAN, MINNESOTA, that it should and hereby does support the request for the
reclassification of the property, based on the following findings and conditions.
1. The planned development is not in conflict with the Comprehensive Plan. The proposed
pre -development density of 3.97 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 on -road trail and
street connections anticipated within the site.
2. The planned development of 44 single family is consistent with the intent of the RSF-2
zoning district, which allows single family homes. The applicant is requesting approval of
PUD zoning to allow the development of 85 townhomes. The purpose of the PUD district
is to allow for mixing of land uses that could not otherwise be accomplished through
standard zoning regulations. The applicant is also requesting approval of PUD zoning for
design flexibility for modification of townhome architecture and building standards for this
development.
3. The planned development is not in conflict with other applicable provisions of the City's
Zoning Ordinance, except that PUD flexibility is requested as noted in the staff report. In
exchange for this flexibility, the developer indicates they will preserve wetlands, preserve
existing trees to buffer the development, establish buffers and screening between the
existing development and the townhomes, provide a small private park and provide an
additional 55 ft. setback from County Road 101 for the lots on 62nd Avenue N.
4. The planned development is feasibly without dependence upon any other subsequent
phase. The project will be completed in a single phase and integrate into the existing
Ravinia neighborhood.

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 and sidewalks consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan. The
private park will serve neighborhood residents in addition to the existing public parks in
the surrounding area.
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 is estimated to
be 3.97 units per acre where 3-5 units per acre are required 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. Staff finds the developer meets this standard. The development will meet
the City's density goals while providing land for land for a private park, trails and quality
architecture.
