Since then, staff has reviewed them internally and with the Development Review Committee. The red font are the adjustments that have been made. Below is an overview of the current park rules: • Hours of operation: 6 am – 11 pm 10 pm, unless City sponsored event, program, or a waiver is present. • No defacing park property • No defacing of trees • No littering • No posting of signs • No moving equipment removing or relocating equipment. • No sales in park • No breach of peace • Only 3.2 malt liquor can be consumed in the parks Only malt liquor and wine can be consumed in the parks. • Animals in the park must be on a leash no longer than 6 feet long • Only regulated fires for culinary purposes in a designated area. • No swimming, bathing, or entering waters in public parks • No horses in park property • No placing, parking, or driving on park property with any motor vehicle except on specific road and parking lots with the exception of City vehicles. • No glass containers Addition approved by the PTC: • No tobacco use or vaping, with the exception of inside personal vehicles. 7a. Staff suggested the addition of the follow rule at the previous Parks and Trails meeting.

The request from the Parks and Trails Commission is to review the updates and consider recommending approval by City Council. 105 South Fifth Avenue Suite 513 Minneapolis, MN 55401 Tel: 612-252-9070 www.landform.net Landform® and Site to Finish® are registered service marks of Landform Professional Services, LLC. Agenda Item: 8b. TO: FROM: DATE: RE: Corcoran Parks and Trails Commission T.J. Hofer through Kendra Lindahl, Landform June 11, 2020 for the June 18, 2020 Parks and Trails Commission Meeting Final PUD Development Plan and Final Plat for “Bellwether 5th Addition” (Outlot A, Bellwether 4nd Addition) (city file no. 20-024) REVIEW DEADLINE: September 16, 2020 1.Application Request Pulte Homes of Minnesota, LLC (applicant) has submitted a request for approval of a Final Plat and Final PUD plan application for “Bellwether 5th Addition”, a residential development of 46 new single- family homes and one outlot on 18.43 acres of property. 2. Context Background On June 28, 2018 the City approved rezoning the property to Planned Unit Development (PUD), a preliminary plat and a preliminary PUD plan. The approvals were subject to several conditions which the developer is working to address. On October 11, 2018 the City approved the Final Plat and Final PUD Development plan for the first phase of Bellwether which included 78 single family homes and six outlots. On April 25, 2019 the City approved the Final Plat for Bellwether 2nd Addition and the Final PUD for the 2nd and 3rd phases On October 26, 2019 the City approved the Final Plat for Bellwether 3rd Addition. The plat for the 3rd Addition cannot be recorded until the street and utility improvements on the realigned Stieg Road are completed, but some grading work in the 3rd Addition was required to facilitate these improvements. On March 26, 2020 the City approved the Final Plat and Final PUD for the 4th phase. A grading plan was approved as part of the 4th phase that allowed for work to be done on Outlot A, Bellwether 4th Addition in order to help balance the site. Outlot A is now being proposed as Bellwether 5th Addition. This is the fifth of six planned phases. Bellwether Final PUD Plan and Final Plat (20-024) 2 June 18, 2020 3. Analysis of Request The applicant has submitted a plan for the fifth phase of the proposed development which includes 46 new single-family homes and one outlot. All the homes proposed in this development will be single- family homes constructed for active adults. The Bellwether (formerly Encore) development is part of the Del Webb development brand, which is an age-restricted community that provides a wide range of property management services and recreational amenities to its residents. 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 or older. No children are allowed to live in the community. The community is served by a recreational community center. Parks, Trails and Open Space Park dedication for Bellwether was calculated for the entire development. The Council voted to give full credit for a combination of : • Dedication of a 9-acre open space park in the center of the site. • 3.96 acres of land as part of the land for the neighborhood/community park on the northern portion of the site • 4.4 acres of land for the proposed amenity center • Off-road trails in a 20-foot wide easement • Cost of constructing the boardwalk across Wetland 7 • Cost of paving off-road trails In this addition, the land in the northern portion of the site is to be dedicated along with off-road trails. The original proposal submitted by the applicant showed part of “Outlot A, Bellwether 5th Addition,” dedicated to meet park dedication purposes. The applicant is currently proposing to dedicate all of what is to be platted as Outlot A. This area is 4.84 acres, but much of it is wetland area. As part of the 1st addition the City took the southern portion of this wetland as park dedication. The Parks Commission should consider if the City should take the entire area, or have the applicant split the Outlot so the City ends up with more upland area and less unusable wetland area. Additionally, proposed the park includes a separate upland area that will need to be maintained at the far northeast of the wetland. Staff prepared an exhibit to illustrate this and has attached it to this report as Attachment 5. On- and off-road trails are proposed for this phase of the PUD final development plan; however, only off-road trail areas shown in the Comprehensive Plan count toward park dedication requirements. Off-road trails run through the southwest of the 5th Addition and connect the new neighborhood park with the community park to the south and the future expansion of the park to the west when that parcel develops. The applicant is showing parts of the proposed off-road trail located in the wetland buffer for Wetland #6. This will need to be revised as trails are not allowed Bellwether Final PUD Plan and Final Plat (20-024) 3 June 18, 2020 within the wetland buffer and must be setback five ft. from the buffer. The applicant should revise the submitted plans to show the proposed trail connection on each sheet, not just the Storm Sewer and Landscape Plans. The Commission should discuss the alignment of the trail to connect to the south. Staff recommends moving the connection further to the east where the trail naturally converges and has prepared an exhibit to illustrate this and it is attached as Attachment 6. Trails beyond this loop could be constructed when the park is developed in the future. The applicant is showing uses for the park area as “Tot Lot Swings,” “Courts” and “Dog Park.” The park will be developed and designed by the City when the adjacent parcel to the west develops. The final design may not include the items shown on Pulte’s concept. Additional park dedication will be considered as future phases are proposed. To calculate the total contribution to park dedication for each phase of development, a park and trail easement exhibit with gross and net acreage calculations will be required from the developer. 4. Recommendation Move to recommend either option of the park dedication for this phase to the City Council and approval of the changes proposed by staff. Attachments 1. Site Location Map 2.

Zoning Existing zoning of the property is a combination of Urban Reserve (UR), Single Family Residential (RSF-1), High Density Residential (RMF-3), and Community Commercial (C-2). The We are requesting to rezone the commercial use property to Neighborhood Commercial (C-1) and the residential use property to Planned Unit Development (PUD). Park Dedication Comprehensive Plan Guidance The City’s Comprehensive Plan identifies the woods in the central part of the Newman property as a “High Quality Natural Community” (see brown area in the graphic below). It further defines it as a “Maple/Basswood” forest. In addition, the location of this woods is ideal for a passive public amenity. We are preserving nearly 9 acres of this woods. The Comprehensive Plan also identifies many recreational facilities planned for the general area (see graphic below). A Neighborhood Park (“NP”) and/or Community Park (“CP”) are shown in the below graphic as well as public trails illustrated in orange. 6 The combination of a neighborhood park and wooded open space interconnected by public trails will be a very attractive public amenity for the area. We have incorporated these features into the design of the Encore neighborhood, with convenient access for those outside of the neighborhood. See below graphic. Trails We will be constructing the trails shown in the below graphic (in blue). Future trails constructed by others are also shown to provide context. The total length of public trails to be constructed with Encore is almost 9,500 feet. Sidewalks are shown in red. 7 Schober Park As part of our park dedication, we are dedicating 4.80 acres of land for a City park on the Schober property. Subtracting wetlands and a storm water pond leads to a total upland area of 3.96 acres. It is anticipated that when the adjacent Van Blaricom property develops, additional park dedication will complete the park. Now would be an appropriate time for the City to plan amenities and uses in Schober Park. On our plans we are showing an example illustration of a potential layout of amenities and uses. Through experience in creating many neighborhoods in recent years, it has become apparent that dog parks are a very popular facility for all demographic groups. We highly recommend that the City construct a dog park in this location concurrent with development of Phase 2 or Phase 3 of Encore (2019 or 2020) to serve the broader area. We have recently built a dog park and we have utilized this basic layout in our drawings for Schober Park. We recommend budgeting between $60k and $80k for the dog park. Satisfying Park Dedication Our calculations (see below) indicate that in providing all the features identified in the Comprehensive Plan, we will be dedicating more than required by City ordinance for this application. These properties happen to contain land that the City wishes to preserve for both passive and active recreational uses. We are dedicating a wooded natural resource, active park land, and the construction of public trails.
