Meeting Date: 09/10/2019 By: Chloe McGuire Brigl, Community Development Information Title: Adopt Ordinance #19-09 Vacating Right of Way and Resolution #19-190 Approving Final Plat and Development Agreement for River Walk Village; Case of Don Kveton/Village Bank (Project 18-163) Purpose/Background: The purpose of this case is to vacate underlying right of way and adopt the final plat related to River Walk Village, a medium density (detached single-family), 14 lot residential subdivision. The City Council previously approved the preliminary plat and introduced the ordinance to vacate the road right-of-way and this is the final step in the approval process for the project in terms of compliance with zoning and subdivision codes, contingent upon the developer completing a development agreement with the City. This case is also subject to a contaminated soil cleanup grant, to be discussed as a separate case. Notification: For the easement vacation, a Public Hearing Notice was mailed to Property Owners within 700 feet of the Subject Property. Staff used the Anoka County Property Records Database to obtain Owner Information. The Public Hearing Notice was also published in the Anoka County UnionHerald. Previously, notifications of the Preliminary Plat were sent via Standard US Mail to Property Owners within 700 feet of the Subject Property, as reflected by Anoka County Property Records. Observations/Alternatives: Summary River Walk Village was granted preliminary plat approval on June 25, 2019 by the Ramsey City Council for 14 medium -density detached residential lots. The lots are 50 feet wide and generally meet all of the requirements of the R-2 Residential District. Tonight will focus on adoption of the the necessary ordinance to vacate right of way no longer needed for the project and adoption of the final plat, which is the document recorded at the County indicating new property lines. This project also includes the vacation of existing easement that was provided to then Ramsey Township for access to King's Island in Anoka which had originally been platted for single-family homes. The right of way for Rivlyn Avenue currently extends off the existing cul-de-sac and heads south to King's Island and the Mississippi River Trail. The plat for River Walk Village proposes that Rivlyn Avenue will be continued east -west through the site and cul-de-sac on the east side of the Subject Property. The Mississippi River Trail will be encumbered by an Outlot, to be deeded to the City to maintain the trail. The City Council previously approved the preliminary plat for River Walk Village, and the proposed final plat is consistent with the preliminary plat.
