Meeting was then turned over to David Licht, Planner.
Mr Licht gave a brief overview of the Comp Plan.
WHY A COMP PLAN?
It is mandated by the State of Minnesota thru a
directive of the Municipal Board. State Statutes require a
Comp Plan be prepared, but other logical reasons are growth
management (harmonious fashion), and it serves as a basis for
financial planning. If development of one type or another
dominates, the tax base goes down. Industrial and Commercial
is needed to broaden the service base. There are three
players that contribute to the plan; 1)
Planner/Attorney/Engineer 2) City Council/Planning Commission
3) The general citizenry of the City The major input was at a
Public Informational Meeting where seven major items of
changes were highlighted, which has resulted in 22 pages of
document highlighted revisions. There has been substantial
change since inception of the document.
Licht stated that this is a brief background, but no
substitute for reading the material and it is only the
highlights. The City is a product of Incorporation of 15,
November, 1990 Municipal Board said Wright County Plan and
Ordinances would be in effect until Otsego developed there
own. Wright County Plan is one of more reaction than
Planning. After efforts have been directed as to what the
City of Otsego wants and needs as time goes on, we have been
going thru fairly major as well as time consuming process to
complete the Comp Plan. What you have in front of you is the
process that followed. PLANNING TACTICS REPORT: (first step)
Problems and what needs to be accomplished. Incorporation
was indicated to be advised as a result of this. That was
the first part of the public official part of thD process.
PLAN INVENTORY: Growth, land absorption, factual statement of
the Community. These were blended together with public
official input to make the Comp Plan.

BASIC ELEMENT OF A PLAN=
Land Use was assembled and identified. Development and
property rights basic thrust is to accommodate development
and improve development. Licht showed a detailed map as to
what inventory produced. Urban development concentration in
NE corner of Otsego. This location is the least capable of
supporting Development without ground water polution. A
number of very critical elements surfaced because of this
d in
plan. Flooding/tobasicpsteconcernanrosion
thereearestwoa distinct
this area. First
areas, one rural with extremely low density development (1
unit for 40 acres). The shading on the map is Urban Service
District an area where development can occur. two
categories, 1)immediate service area 2)long range service
area. #1 Any type of hi -density use is to occur in this
area, storm water drainage, parks and other services that the
City may supply. If services are concentrated, it is much
more efficient. Water pollution is a major concern in this
area and a clear public comment was that premature sewer is
not wanted. The objective of the plan is to prevent public
sewer from occurring as long as possible. Also to prepare so
if contamination of wells and groundwater pollution occur we
are ready. Plan is not to promote or install public sewer.
In the long Term Urban Growth area, after the Immediate
Service Area fills in, it will spread to this area. It is 4
per 40 density. Along2the
rivacres er 2-1/2 acres
soper unit will be
allowed. (DNR a11a
recommendation is slightly above DNR"s amount. Additional
Industrial Areas were called for by the public. SW area by
Albertville it has rail going throughout,it is designated as
Industrial. Other changes is that Co Rd #42 and #101 area is
in the Immediate Urban Service Area. It has a Urban style
treatment plant. There has not been sufficient time to
determine capacity. This will be defined with further study.
The Treatment Plant was developed by a private part, but City
of Otsego holds ultimate responsibility for it. Licht showed
the Land Use Plan. The Ag Land is dominate. Low density is
the river frontage area. The Immediate Service Area is cited
for high-density development. 4 per 40 density in the
surrounding Long Range Development area, with higher density
allowed when the Immediate Service Area is filled. The #101
corridor is the prime Industrial/Commercial area use. #101
and #39 is the primary commercial area and the hub of the
City. You have to compete with surrounding areas for
Commercial Development Licht stated. The projection for over
-- -
the next 10 to 15 years is probably no more than SO acres of
land will be usedfor Commercial. rial Development isoacveryate hardetypepofnt in

development to project. You have lots of competition. You
should provide Industrial/Commercial opportunity,
but dant
expect too much highway development. You are competing with
your neighbors. #39 is the prime focus. #42 and #101
secondary focus. Industrial use is a major concern, as we
have no Industrial development now, but lots of businesses in
the residential areas. (Some cases no impact on residential,
but in other cases there is substantial impact). You have to
provide some alternative for individuals tohaveia spnee. tAs
a consequence, besides the #101 corridor,
create other areas for Industrial. SW corner of the City
W/access to Interstate and rail. The Comp Plan calls for a
third area also which hasn't been precisely definied, but
will be somewhere in the central part of the community. Stay
tuned for additional elements as time goes on. one change on
this map on #101 and East side of #101 is that it has become
clear that DNR is not agreeable to having anything but low
intensity activities to the East of #101. We are trying to
change some of the boundaries, but aren't having much
success. The area on the W side of #101 the DNR still
insists it remain a protected area. The Council and Planning
Commission are committed to pursuing that. This area is the
prime tax generating area we can pursue. Compounding the
entire discussion with the DNR is the fact that #101 is to be
four lane instead of two lane. On the W side of #101 land
becomes further divided. The Transportation Plan is one
document upgrading of roads to higher capacity and #101 is
sited for four lane divided in 1994 and MN/DOT project
suggests that in twenty years 101 will achieve freeway
status. If that occurs, two interchanges will be allowed on
#101. (39 & 37) 42 and #101, direct access to 101 would be
closed. Because of the present plan suggesting some
closing, frontage roads are being planned for and will be put
in as demands are made. Community Facilities,
& Parks and
Trails are located in the Immediate Urban Service Area. The
plan does not spend major effort on this as the City has
created a Parks and Recs Committee. They are addressing
same, and pursing grant funds.
The four different things the plan addresses are
1. Environmental
2. Land Use
3. Transportation
4. Community Facilities and Services
Each area will be addressed. There are nine areas
densityhat
City has divided into. One of the changes is,
low} North of Albertville if and when development progresses
Northward in logical progression, the City should consider
low density development in this area. Also in this area,.
there is a marginal Ag land that we have designated potential

low density. If development takes place, then change it, but
only then. There is a concentrated effort to address these
items. The material in pink copy is the changes made in the
plan. Twenty two pages in all. It is available at the City
- Hall. Licht went over the changes (see attached sheet of
Otsego,MN Comp Plan Draft Tex Revisions 21, Aug, 1991. Licht
talked about the use of immediate in wording. He stated the
City has made an effort to hear what the citizens have to
say. He then turned it back to Roskaft. Roskaft introduce
Jim Kolles, Planning Commission Member. if you wish to
speak, fill out a card and come down to speak Roskaft stated.
NEIL GOARDER - Said it seems we have a move underway to
remove land from the Wild and Scenic River. Keep it Wild and
Scenic he said. It doesn't just include Otsego. Consult
people that live along there. Somebody has been working
behind the scenes.
ARNEL BECKMAN - Apologized to the City Planner for having
words with him about the definition of immediate. Wanted to
establish a City Market. For the Planning Commission, he
wanted to know how they go about selecting a Planning
Commission and a Park and Recs. Board. Beckman stated that
he had told them he would love to serve on the board. He
said he lived in Coon Rapids and he had asked to establish a
Garden Club. I asked if I could put an article in the
Newsletter and I was told no and I was very upset about that.
I am a Master Gardener he stated and how do people know about
you? There are too many people selected by our Mayor that are
"yes men" to them he stated. The river should be preserved.
They won't let us come before the Council to talk he said.
NANCY BRUNELL - Asked if we are requiring More than one acre
for development of homes? Licht answered the plan calls for
pumping septics, a decision had to be made. One acre density
if maintained with septics poses no more threat than more
then one acre and not addressing septic systems. Very
specifically no public sewer and preservation of the Wild and
Scenic River are the goals. In the Immediate Service Area it
calls for 1-2-1/2 units per acre. When development comes
along, testing of soils and we haven't changed one acre, but
it is not explicit one acre. Brunell asked about less homes
per acre and Sherburne County putting a moratorium on
building. In consultation we have done with engineers, they
feel comfortable if there is maintenance on the septic
systems Licht said and PCA is starting to look at systems and
community drainfields, etc. We will try to maintain 1 to 2-
1/2 acre lifestyle and not provide public sewer. As part of
the Subdivision Ordinance in the County Regulations a
requirement for having a re -subdivision plan and they do
identify where the house is to go and how it can be
subdivided further. Brunell stated that they are trying to
form the Homeowners Association and she didn't understand why
she was not allowed
CITY OF OTSEGO SPECIAL PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING OF 8/21/91
AT 7:30PM - AT ELK RIVER SR HIGH SCHOOL, HEARING ON COMP PLAN

to have that information in the Otsego View. Rrunell stated
that she also did not understand the Wild and Scenic area and
asked how far back it comes? Licht showed a Wild and Scenic
map and how it lays on the land. We have State of Minnesota
Regulations on the Shorelands and Floodplains and Wild and
Scenic. Licht talked about the regulations and how they work
and that Cities report to the DNR.
MORRIE HARPSTER - Upgrading of 101 roads - How will it be
paid for and the Park and Trails? Licht answered that the
101 the State pays for the State portion and the County pays
for the County portion. Local roads paid for by the general
fund and MSA and development that occurs is paid for by the
developer. On an annual basis the capital improvement
program -- volume/function/improvement/need is figured. Licht
said there would be no massive jumps in property taxes and
that change in taxes mean change in services.
GEORGE SEABECK -- Had questions about how you determine about
pumping sludge out of septic systems and how do you know that
you are not pumping contaminates? How do you know
contaminates are not going into the drainfield? How do you
know the well is not contaminated? Is the State Department
testing the problem? How do you adjust cost if we have to go
with sewer and water? Licht stated that Seabeck is getting
way beyond - There are several ways to absorb cost. Front
footage is one way -- Unit basis is another way. It is all
part of a program the plan suggests the City needs to pursue.
FLOODPLAIN - If you have it now, can it be upgraded so it
isn't one? Seabeck asked. Licht answered that the Federal
Agency is now upgrading floodplain regulations. Otsego will
have to implement their own Floodplain Ordinance. You can
give and take land. It will be addressed and the Feds will
sponsor the hearing. You can develop in a floodplain. There
are two areas; 1) Floodway (flow of floodwater) and 2)
Floodfringe (flood storage area). Licht then explained the
residential, industrial and commercial and feasible
alternatives.
ARNEL BECKMAN - Asked what steps are being taken to divide
into wards? Licht said it is not a Planning Commission
matter and and he should address the City Council. Roskaft
commented on the Wild and Scenic and that he was at the
Legislature when the Wild and Scenic River District was
established and how it was done. There was not enough money
} for surveying so they just randomly picked areas to make up
an acreage. At this point Roskaft closed the Hearing. Licht
pointed out that we had received information from Edward
Bach, Jr, Attorney for Darkenwald's and it will be included
in the minutes. Larry Fournier motioned for the Planning
Commission to adopt the Comp Plan in it's amend form. Carl

RE: City of Otsego Comprehensive Plan, dated June, 1991,
Prepared by Northwest Associated Consultants, Inc.
with transmittal letter dated June 13, 1991
(Preliminary copy)
This letter is written on behalf of Gil Darkenwald who owns
land in the City of Otsego located at the intersection of
Highway 101 and County Road 42.
The preparation of a Comprehensive Plan is a substantial and
important undertaking. The City of Otsego has hired a
recognized expert consulting firm to assist it in developing
the Comprehensive Plan. The consultant can help the City
assemble data and ideas in an organized, readable form. Of
course, the City Planning Commission and the City Council are
responsible for making sure the plan is realistic and actually
meets the needs of the community and its citizens.
The above -referenced plan document which I have reviewed was
extremely well prepared and should provide a very valuable
tool for the City of Otsego. However, the document contains
incorrect statements regarding the actual situation existing
at the intersection of County Road 42 and Highway 101. Those
statements must be changed in the final draft of the
Comprehensive Plan, both for the benefit of the City and to
protect the interests of Mr. Darkenwald. The incorrect
statements concern the intentions of MnDOT. Those intentions
do not include plans for a "grade separation" at the
intersection. The intersection improvement has, in fact, been
completed with signal lights and four -lane roadway in all
directions having been installed. It is not the plan of MnDOT
Otsego City Council
August 21, 1991
Page 2
to restrict direct access from County Road 42 onto Highway
101. Therefore, the following changes must be made in the
Comprehensive Plan:
1. The last two sentences in the first paragraph on
page 97 should be deleted.
2. The first paragraph at the top of page 144 should be
deleted.
3. Paragraph number six of the Summary of District 4
recommendations on page 144 should be deleted.
The Comprehensive Plan document correctly notes that Highway
101 is and will remain the "lifeline" of the City, that the
focus of development should be along Highway 101 between
County Road 42 and the river, and that development of
commercial services along Highway 101 will allow the City to
broaden its tax base. Given those facts, it would be
economically unsound to assign a second class status to
development at the Highway 101 and County Road 42
intersection. However, the plan in some places seems to do
exactly that. Perhaps the classification had something to do
with the previous uncertainty as to MnDOT's intentions
regarding the intersection. That uncertainty, as noted above,
has been eliminated.
The following changes in the Comprehensive Plan are
recommended and requested and fit well with the issues and
policies set out elsewhere in the plan:
A. The maps on pages 67 and 145 should be changed to
set out the intersection of Highway 101 and County Road 42 as
a "primary retail center" rather than a "secondary retail
center".
B. The maps on pages 68 and 87 should be changed to
include the Highway 101 and County Road 42 intersection in the
"immediate urban service area".
C. The map on page 109 should be changed to show the
intersection of Highway 101 and County Road 42 as either a
"potential interchange" or, perhaps more accurately, as a
"completed interchange".
Copies of the pages mentioned above and a copy of a letter
from MnDOT dated June 24, 1991, are enclosed with this letter
and highlighted.
Otsego City Council
August 21, 1991
Page 3
It is very important to the City of Otsego and to the owners
of developable land within the City that the Comprehensive
Plan which is adopted should be as accurate as possible in its
statements of fact. The requests set out in paragraphs 1, 2,
and 3 above, deal with issues of facts. It is also important
that the Comprehensive Plan should not limit or handcuff the
City in assisting development along the Highway 101 corridor.
The requests set out in paragraphs A, B, and C above, deal
with such development issues.
Thank you for your attention to the matter set out in this
letter. Best wishes to the new City of Otsego in all its
planning and development endeavors.
Very truly yours,

o County Road 42/Highway 101. This area also holds some
existing commercial development. Due to its high
visibility, commercial development is expected to continue
developing establishing the area\ as a secondary commercial
center. One point of concern involving the intersection is
a MnDOT proposal to, in the long term, provide a grade
separation at the intersection and remove direct access
between County Road 42 and Highway 101. Again, the City may
wish to employ either an interim use concept or promote
development which does not necessarily require direct
access from Highway 101.
o County Road 37/Highway 101. As mentioned previously, this
intersection has been identified to hold a future
interchange. Due to such issues as existing area housing,
topography and commercial land demand, commercial
development in this area should be limited to that which
would serve adjacent residential neighborhoods. Like the
County Road 39/Highway 101 intersection, the City should
encourage only interim uses within the potential interchange
"footprint".
Industrial Uses
As mentioned within the Inventory section of this report, Otsego
is a bedroom community with no existing industrial development or
industrially zoned property. This fact translates back to the
community's lack of public sewer and water which continue to
limit development potential. Other contributing factors to this
lack of industrial development are the proximity of the active
development centers of Elk River, Rogers, Albertville, St.
Michael and Monticello. To be recognized, however, is that there
is a relatively substantial number of "home extended" businesses
which would likely qualify as industrial uses. Unfortunately at
this time, the number of these uses, their location and the
City's policy.on their continuation is unknown. Given all these
considerations, projecting future land allocations is extremely
difficult.
Based on the physical and economic constraints, industrial growth
in Otsego will most likely be characterized by smaller dry
industries with a small number of employees that are developed or
initiated by a developer or resident having a local interest in
Otsego. Development of this type is typically sporadic and
spontaneous. In planning to address future industrial
development need, the City may choose to identify future
development locations that may serve this purpose. In
appreciation of varied types and intensities of industrial uses
multiple locations should be considered.
97
As part of the long range Transportation Plan, MnDOT has also
expressed the desire to providea grade separation at the County
Road 42/Highway 101 intersection and ultimately eliminate
vehicular access. In response to the plan, the City should
encourage future proximate uses to be either of an interim nature
or of a sort which is not totally dependent upon the said access
capabilities. F
Also included' in the development of the Highway 101 corridor
should be the development of the frontage road plan. The plan
should be coordinated with the Minnesota Department of
Transportation and employ a detached system which would minimize
assessment costs and allow a "double -loading" of the roadway.
SUMMARY OF DISTRICT 4 RECOMMENDATIONS f
1. Mayor commercial expansion and the provision of medium/high `
density residential should be reserved, but development is
not recommended until future public sewer and water service
is made available.
2.. All proposed development shall be subject to conformance
with applicable floodplain and wild and Scenic River
District regulations.
3. The medium and high density residential land uses proposed
in this district should be viewed as transitional in nature
between commercial and single family residential land uses.
These also provide a means for a varied housing market
within Otsego.
4. The City encourage the development of a Highway 101 frontage
road plan.
5. Proximate to the County Road 39 and 37 intersections of v
Highway 101, the City encourage interim uses to respond to
future plans to construct interchanges at the said crossing.
6. At the County Road 42/Highway 101 intersection, the City
encourage uses which are not totally dependent upon the
crossing's existing access capabilities.
7. The City adopt performance standards relative to commercial
and industrial development to ensure that future projects
are built and maintained to the highest possible standards.
8. The City establish suitable sites for commercial and
industrial development to enhance Otsego's ability to
promote economic development.

S.P. 2738 - 08 T.H. 101
CSAH 42 Intersection
Dear Mr. Darkenwald:
Reply to 593- 8405
Telephone No.
Earlier today we met to discuss the Minnesota Department of Transportation's (Mn/DOT)
long range plans for Trunk Highway (T.H.) 101 in the vicinity of the CSAH 42 interse(ttion
in the City of Otsego. You inquired into any plans Mn/DOT has to grade separate the
CSAH 42 intersection with T.H. 101.
Mn/DOT has plans to reconstruct T.H. 101 between Rogers and Elk River in 1994. The
programmed project will involve adding two additional lanes and limiting access to the
major county road crossings on T.H. 101. CSAH 42 in the City of Otsego is one of the
access locations. Last year Wright County "let" a project to signalize and reconstruct the
CSAH 42 intersection. In conjunction with that project they reconstructed a portion of
T.H. 101 to 4 -lanes on either side of the intersection. This widening improved the
capacity of the intersection and was consistent with Mn/DOT's plans to upgrade T.H. 101
to 4 -lanes (see enclosed layout). Therefore, in 1994 Mn/DOT's T.H. 101 project will
match on either side of the County's project for CSAH 42.
When Mn/DOT constructs a major project such as we have programmed on T.H. 101,
we design it with the idea that we will not be programming another major project for at
least 20 years. Therefore, Mn/DOT does not have any 20 Year Plan to upgrade T.H. 101
to a freeway - which would involve constructing grade separations and interchanges.
I hope this letter clarifies Mn/DOT's plans for T.H. 101. If you have any further questions,
please feel free to call me.
Sincerely,
