ARE YOU SEEKING APPROVAL OF A CONTRACT?
IS A PUBLIC HEARING REQUIRED?

BACKGROUND/JUSTIFICATION:
M/I Homes of Minneapolis/St. Paul, LLC has submitted application to final plat Boulder Pass located at the
northwest quadrant of 70th Street (CSAH 70) and Quaday Avenue. The preliminary plat for Boulder Pass
was approved by the City Council on 12 October 2009. The preliminary plat allowed for gravel excavation
for export to bring the property to the planned grades prior to final platting. Excavation of gravel from the
property has ceased and the development of the property will occur consistent with the final elevations.
The final plat is to be retitled as "Boulder Pass".
■ Comprehensive Plan. The Comprehensive Plan guides the subject site for Medium -to -High Density
Residential Land Uses. The Comprehensive Plan, based on the preference for single family
neighborhoods within Otsego, allows for development of residential land uses with less density
than a townhouse or multiple family land use.
■ Zoning. The subject site is zoned R-5 Residential Single and Two Family District. A PUD-CUP was
approved with the preliminary plat establishing lot requirements and provisions for common open
space within the subdivision. Single family lots are a permitted use within the R-5 District.
■ Lot Requirements. The final plat consists of 44 single family lots accessed by public streets in a
configuration consistent with the preliminary plat. The proposed lots within the final plat comply
with the minimum lot area and width requirements of the R-5 District and the PUD-CUP setback
requirements shown below:

Streets. The proposed lots will be accessed by local public streets constructed between Quaday
Avenue and 73'd Street within the abutting Boulder Creek subdivision. The street name for the
street segment between Parquet Avenue and Quaday Avenue should be revised as 73rd Street as it
provides through access to Boulder Creek.
Public streets are to be 28 feet wide with concrete curb and gutter within a 60 foot wide right-of-
way. The final plat application also includes vacation of existing right-of-way easement for Quaday
Avenue acquired by the City at the time the street was constructed, which will be platted with the
proposed final plat. All right-of-way dedication and street construction plans are to be subject to
review and approval of the City Engineer.
Street lighting will be installed by the developer within the final plat in accordance with Title 8,
Chapter 8 of the City Code with payment of charges as established in accordance with the City Fee
Schedule, subject to review and approval of the City Engineer.
Sidewalks/Trails. A sidewalk will be constructed on the south side of 73`d Street extending the
existing sidewalk from the west within Boulder Creek. A future sidewalk is shown on the east side
of Paris Avenue, north side of 71" Street, and west side of Parquet Avenue and on the north side of
72"d Street between Parquet Avenue and Quaday Avenue. A trail crossing with crosswalk and trail
crossing signs will be required at the Quaday Avenue and 72"d Street intersection to access the
existing trail on the east side of Quaday Avenue.
Outlot A at the northwest corner of the subject site is to be deeded to the City. This outlot will
abut the City's planned acquisition of land shown on the Park System Master Plan from the
property to the north and is intended to allow for future trail access. The corridor between Blocks
1 and 2 is only 20 feet wide at 73'd Street, whereas 30 feet is required for the trail and maintenance
on either side. A trail easement will need to be dedicated five feet each side of Outlot A over
portion of Lot 5, Block 1 and Lot 1, Block 2 to provide the necessary width for the future trail.
There is a privately maintained trail within Outlot C through the center of the development. This
trail will connect to sidewalks on 73rd Street and Parquet Avenue. A Homeowners Association will
be responsible for maintenance of the trail. A trail easement should be dedicated over the trail
corridor within Outlot C to allow public access.
■ Landscaping. Section 11-19-2.6.1 of the Zoning Ordinance requires the developer install two
shade trees within each lot of the final plat as construction of houses on each lot progresses. The
security for these trees will be collected at the time of building permit for each lot. Lots 1 and 2,
Block 7 require planting of a residential buffer yard along Quaday Avenue in accordance with
Section 11-19-3.B.3 of the Zoning Ordinance. The development contract will include a security for
installation of the required buffer yard.
■ Easements. The final plat illustrates drainage and utility easements at the perimeter of each single
family lot and overlaying stormwater facilities as required by Section 1M-12.A of the Subdivision
Ordinance. Existing drainage and utility easements previously dedicated within the subject site no
longer serve a public purpose and will be vacated. All drainage and utility easements are subject to
approval of the City Engineer.
■ Grading and Drainage Plans. The developer has submitted grading and drainage plans for the
proposed final plat. There is an existing wetland within Outlot A that will be protected with the
deeding of the outlot to the City. There is a need to provide a grading easement over Outlot B such
that the elevations can be transitioned to the property to the north. All grading, drainage and
utility issues are subject to review and approval of the City Engineer.
■ Utilities. The developer has submitted utility plans for the proposed final plat. All utility plans are
subject to review and approval by the City Engineer. The developer will be required to pay Utility
Availability Charges for the proposed single lots at the time of final plat approval. Utility connection
charges are to be paid when a building permit is issued for each lot in accordance with the fee
schedule in effect at that time.
■ Park and Trail Dedication. The Park System Master Plan does not identify dedication of land for
public parks from the subject site. Park dedication requirements for the proposed final plat are to
be met as a cash fee in lieu of land. The park dedication fee in lieu of land in accordance with the
City's current fee schedule for the final plat is included in the development contract.
■ Outlots. The proposed final plat includes nine outlots for the purposes stated. Outlot B must be
overlaid by drainage and utility easement with a grading easement provided to the abutting
property owner to the north to allow for future development of their property. Outlot B must also
either be conveyed to the HOA or to the abutting property owner to the north.

proposed final plat to provide for completion of all public improvements, establishment of required
securities, and payment of applicable fees. The Development Contract is to be adopted by
resolution of the City Council concurrent with the final plat approval and executed prior to
recording of the final plat.

within 100 days of City Council approval.

shall be reduced from time to time in proportion to the work completed, but not below ten (10) percent which
is the amount of the warranty security. For purposes of this Section, the warranty period shall be a twelve
