AGENDA ITEM DETAILS RECOMMENDATION: City staff recommends vacation of existing drainage and utility easements, approval of a final plat, and execution of a development contract. ARE YOU SEEKING APPROVAL OF A CONTRACT? IS A PUBLIC HEARING REQUIRED? Yes Yes, held by City Council 14 February 2022. BACKGROUND/JUSTIFICATION: M/I Homes of Minneapolis/St. Paul, LLC has submitted application to final plat a second phase of Boulder Pass, which is located at the northwest quadrant of 70th Street (CSAH 38) 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. ▪ 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. The final plat is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. ▪ 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 25 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 established with the preliminary plat approval, which are shown below: Min. Lot Area Min. Lot Width Setbacks Int. Cor. Front Side Rear Bldg. Garage Corner Interior Interior Quaday Ave./ CSAH 38 9,000sf. 60ft. 90ft. 25ft. 30ft. 25ft. 10 ft. house/ 5 ft. garage/ 15 ft. between Bldg. 30ft. 65ft. ▪ Streets. The proposed lots will be accessed by extension of Parquet Avenue and 71st Street west of 73rd Street. The public street is to be 28 feet wide with concrete curb and gutter within a 60 foot wide right-of-way. A temporary cul-de-sac will be required at the terminus of 71st Street within an easement that will expire with final platting of Outlot A and extension of the street. Street construction plans are to be subject to review and approval of the City Engineer. ▪ Street Signs. The installation of street signs will be determined by the City Engineer. The developer will pay the City a fee for the fabrication and installation of street signs with execution of the development contract. The fee for each sign is established pursuant to the City fee schedule. ▪ Street Lighting. 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 upon execution of the development contract 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 west side of Parquet Avenue and north side of 71st Street consistent with the street section for the initial final plat. City staff recommends that a trail be constructed on the west side of Quaday Avenue from 70th Street (CSAH 38) to Parson Avenue provide access to the City’s overall trail system as a credit for park dedication fees. ▪ Landscaping. Section 11-19-2.B.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. Planting of a residential buffer yard along the rear of the lots within Block 2 abutting Quaday Avenue and 70th Street (CSAH 38 is required in accordance with Section 11-19-3.B.3 of the Zoning Ordinance. The development agreement 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 10-8-12.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. 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 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. As such, 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 for each lot as established by the City’s current fee schedule for the final plat is included in the development contract less a credit for construction of the trail along Quaday Avenue. ▪ Outlots. The proposed final plat includes Outlot A for a future phase of development. ▪ Homeowners Association. Documents incorporating the proposed single family lots within the homeowner’s association for the development are to be submitted for review and approval by the City Attorney prior to recording with the final plat. The homeowner’s association provides for ownership and maintenance of the common property elements platted with the initial final plat. ▪ Development Contract. The City Attorney has drafted a Development Contract as required by Section 10-10-4 of the Subdivision Ordinance related to the 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. ▪ Recording. Section 10-5-3-B.8 of the Subdivision Ordinance requires recording of the final plat within 100 days of City Council approval.

City of Otsego for Building Permits, Retaining Walls, Irrigation I. MDH for water permits J. MPCA for sewer extension 10. DEWATERING. Due to the variable nature of groundwater levels and stormwater flows, it will be the Developer’s and the Developer’s contractors and subcontractors responsibility to satisfy themselves with regard to the elevation of groundwater in the area and the level of effort needed to perform dewatering and storm flow routing operations. All dewatering shall be in accordance with all applicable county, state, and federal rules and regulations. DNR regulations regarding appropriations permits shall also be strictly followed. 11. TIME OF PERFORMANCE. The Developer shall install all required public improvements by October 31, 2022. 12. STREETS. The Developer agrees to maintain the streets within the Plat until the base course bituminous surfacing has been accepted by the City. Should the City be required to grade the street prior to paving, the cost of such grading shall be paid by the Developer and draw from the Developer’s letter of credit. Should the City determine that snowplowing is necessary prior to street paving, the City will plow the street(s) prior to acceptance of the streets. The Developer shall hold harmless and indemnify the City from any and all liability related to this snow plowing and shall pay all costs associated with this snow plowing. Any plowing undertaken by the City shall constitute no acceptance or evidence of acceptance of the street(s) in question. The final wear course shall not be constructed until at least one construction season after the base construction is completed and shall be delayed one more construction season if at least 75% build out is not achieved. However, the final wear course shall not be delayed for a period longer than two years after the base course is paved, regardless of build out; in which case, the Developer shall provide an escrow for fog sealing the streets in the event the final wear course is placed prior to 75% build out. Upon final completion of streets and acceptance by the City as a City street rather than a private drive, the Developer shall guarantee to the City for a period of two (2) years the streets have been constructed to City standards. The warranty period shall not commence until such time as street construction is completed 6 219362v6 Boulder Pass 2nd Addition and the streets are accepted as City streets by the City. The two (2) year warranty period set forth above commences upon the date on which the City accepts the streets by resolution. 13. LICENSE. The Developer hereby grants the City, its agents, employees, officers and contractors a license to enter the plat to perform all work and inspections deemed appropriate by the City in conjunction with plat development. 14. EROSION CONTROL. Prior to initiating site grading, the erosion control plan, Plan B, shall be implemented by the Developer and inspected and approved by the City. The City may impose additional erosion control requirements if they would be beneficial. All areas disturbed by the grading operations shall be stabilized per the MPCA Stormwater Permit for Construction Activity. Seed shall be in accordance with the City’s current seeding specification which may include temporary seed to provide ground cover as rapidly as possible. All seeded areas shall be fertilized, mulched, and disc anchored as necessary for seed retention. The parties recognize that time is of the essence in controlling erosion. If the Developer does not comply with the MPCA Stormwater Permit for Construction Activity or with the erosion control plan and schedule or supplementary instructions received from the City, the City may take such action as it deems appropriate to control erosion. The City will endeavor to notify the Developer in advance of any proposed action, but failure of the City to do so will not affect the Developer’s and City’s rights or obligations hereunder. If the Developer does not reimburse the City for any cost the City incurred for such work within ten (10) days, the City may draw down the letter of credit to pay any costs. No development, utility or street construction will be allowed and no building permits will be issued unless the plat is in full compliance with the approved erosion control plan. 15. GRADING.
