Meeting Date: 03/12/2019 By: Chloe McGuire Brigl, Community Development Information Title: Adopt Ordinance #19-04 Amending Official Zoning Map; Case of Harvest Estates 2nd Addition Purpose/Background: This ordinance was introduced by the City Council at the regular meeting of February 26, 2019. The purpose of this case is to review a preliminary plat application for a fifteen (15) lot residential subdivision. The Applicant has proposed to subdivide the approximately six and a half (6.5) acre parcel into fifteen (15) single family lots serviced by City utilities. The site is generally located at the site of the old municipal center, east of Nowthen Boulevard and south of Alpine Drive. The lot is legally described as Lot 25, Block 1 Harvest Estates (the "Subject Property"). The proposed lots are 65-feet wide; a separate case is handling the proposed creation of a new zoning district(s). This case includes a zoning amendment (map) to rezone the Subject Property from R-1 Residential (MUSA) to R-1 Residential (Detached Villa). This would rezone the property to a new residential zoning ditsrict allowing 65 foot -wide lots. Notification: Staff attempted to notify all Property Owners within a 700 foot radius of the Subject Property of the Public Hearing via Standard US Mail. The Public Hearing was also published in the City's official newsletter, the Anoka County Union Herald. The Planning Commission met and held the public hearing on February 7, 2019. Observations/Alternatives: The purpose of this case is to rezone the Subject Property related to Harvest Estates 2nd Addition to the new R-1 Residential (Detached Villas) zoning designation which allows for 65 foot wide lots. These lots are serviced by City utilities. The City Council approved the preliminary plat for Harvest Estates 2nd Addition contingent upon the passing of the new zoning ordinance (19-02) and this rezoning. Funding Source: All costs associated with processing the land use application are the responsibility of the Applicant. The project does include a real estate transaction with the City. Recommendation: The Planning Commission recommends adoption of Ordinance #19-04. Action:
