APPROVING A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT FOR PROPERTY LOCATED AT
6635 COUNTY ROAD 101 (PID 36-119-23-14-0001) (CITY FILE 16-022)
WHEREAS, the Lennar Corporation has requested a land use guide plan amendment to change
the approximately 6-acre parcel from Existing Residential to Low Density Residential, legally
described as follows:
That part of the Southeast Quarter of the Northeast Quarter of Section 36, Township 119,
Range 23, West of the 5th Principal Meridian, described as follows: Commencing at the
Southeast comer of said quarter quarter,- thence North along the East line of said quarter
quarter distant 621.2 feet to the actual point of beginning,- thence continuing North along
said East line 360 feet,- thence West at right angles 759 feet,- thence South parallel with
said East line 360 feet,- thence East to the point of beginning, except road, Hennepin
County, Minnesota.
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has reviewed the requested amendments at a duly called
Public Hearing and recommends approval;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
CORCORAN, MINNESOTA, that it should and hereby does approve the request for a
Comprehensive Plan Amendment for the above referenced parcel, based on the following
findings:
1. The property is located within the urban service area where municipal sewer and water
are available.
2. The change in land use would allow development at densities that provide more lifecycle
housing opportunities.
3. Development of the site as Low Density Residential now would facilitate other planned
infrastructure improvements, including stormwater improvements, sanitary sewer
extension, municipal water extension and transportation improvements that will have
regional benefits.
4. Surrounding land uses are compatible with the proposed change in classification. The
property is located adjacent to the Ravinia development, which is guided Low Density
Residential.
5. The reclassification would allow the property to be incorporated into the Ravinia
development and would be developed compatibly with surrounding development and in a
manner responsive to market needs.
6. The property is in Phase I of the Sanitary Sewer Service Phasing Plan.
