BACKGROUND/JUSTIFICATION:
The City has previously considered two preliminary plat applications involving two parcels with a combined
area of 10.31 acres located south of 80th Street and east of MacIver Avenue. Neither of the prior
applications were carried forward to recording of a final plat. A third proposed preliminary plat application
has been submitted by Mr. Tony Bolduc. The proposed subdivision consists of 28 single family lots to be
known as Prairie View Estates. The proposed development requires applications to amend the Zoning Map
rezoning a portion of the subject site from R-4, Residential Single Family Urban District to R-5, Residential
Single and Two Family District and a preliminary plat.
A public hearing to consider the applications was held by the Planning Commission at their meeting on 2
May 2022. Three residents, whose properties abut the proposed subdivision, spoke at the public hearing
with concerns about cut-through traffic between MacIver Avenue and 80th Street related to Prairieview
Elementary School and the potential loss of existing trees along the abutting plat line. The minutes of the
Planning Commission are attached for review.
The Planning Commission closed the public hearing. Commissioners discussed access and sidewalks along
80th Street. After discussion, the Planning Commission voted 5-0 to recommend approval of the
applications.

PLANNING REPORT
TO: Otsego Planning Commission
FROM: D. Daniel Licht, AICP
REPORT DATE: 28 April 2022
60‐DAY DATE: 15 May 2022
RE: Otsego – Prairie View Estates
TPC FILE: 101.02
BACKGROUND
The City has previously considered two preliminary plat applications involving two parcels with
a combined area of 10.31 acres located south of 80th Street and east of MacIver Avenue.
Neither of the prior applications were carried forward to recording of a final plat. A third
proposed preliminary plat application has been submitted by Mr. Tony Bolduc. The proposed
subdivision consists of 28 single family lots to be known as Prairie View Estates. The proposed
development requires applications to amend the Zoning Map rezoning a portion of the subject
site from R‐4, Residential Single Family Urban District to R‐5, Residential Single and Two Family
District and a preliminary plat. A public hearing to consider the applications has been noticed
for the Planning Commission meeting on 2 May 2022.
Exhibits:
Site Location Map
Preliminary Plat submittal (11 sheets)
ANALYSIS
Zoning. The subject site is zoned R‐4 District after a Zoning Map amendment was approved
with the initial preliminary plat application. The developer is requesting a Zoning Map
amendment to rezone Lots 5‐8, Block 1, Lots 5‐7, Block 2, and Lots 1‐9 Block 3, to R‐5 District.
Both zoning districts allow single family dwellings as a permitted use.
2
Consideration of the Zoning Map amendment is to be based upon (but not limited to) the
criteria established by Section 11‐3‐2.F of the Zoning Ordinance:
1. The proposed action's consistency with the specific policies and provisions of the Otsego
Comprehensive Plan.
Comment: The Comprehensive Plan guides the subject site for low density residential
development within the West Sewer District. The proposed single family development
with a density of 2.89 dwelling units per acre (not including Outlot A) is consistent with
the land uses guided by the Comprehensive Plan.
2. The proposed use's compatibility with present and future land uses of the area.
Comment: The subject site is surrounded by the existing and planned land uses shown in
the table below. The proposed single family lots are consistent with the on‐going buildout
of the adjacent Arbor Creek subdivision (zoned R4 District) and preliminary plat of Prairie
Pointe (zoned R5) district. The preliminary plat provides for lots with similar lots and width
abutting the two adjacent approved subdivisions as a transition area.
Direction Land Use Plan Zoning Map Existing Use
North Institutional INS District Prairie View E‐8
East LD Residential R5 District Single family (Prairie Pointe)
South LD Residential R‐4 District Single family (Arbor Creek)
West LD Residential A‐1 District Single family (Arbor Creek)
3. The proposed use's conformity with all performance standards contained within the
Zoning Ordinance and other provisions of the City Code.
Comment: The proposed subdivision complies with the provisions of the Zoning
Ordinance, Subdivision Ordinance, and Engineering Manual.
4. Traffic generation of the proposed use in relation to capabilities of streets serving the
property.
Comment: The proposed subdivision is accessed from 80th Street east of MacIver Avenue.
With construction of Prairie View Elementary and Middle School, 80th Street was improved
to a minor collector street. MacIver Avenue is an improved residential collector street.
These streets have capacity sufficient to accommodate traffic generated by the proposed
development.
5. The proposed use can be accommodated by existing public services and facilities and will
not overburden the City's service capacity.
3
Comment: The subject site is an infill development within the West Sewer District. The
City has anticipated urban development within the West Sewer District and there is
adequate public service capacity to accommodate the proposed subdivision.
Streets. The subject site abuts the south side of 80th Street, which was improved to a minor
collector street with construction of Prairie View Elementary and Middle School. The
preliminary plat provides for dedication of 40 feet of right‐of‐way for the south half of 80th
Street consistent with the roadway’s designation as a minor collector street. The right‐of‐way
east of Marlowe Avenue within the plat will transition to 60 feet (30 feet south half) for a local
street entering the Prairie Pointe subdivision to the east. The developer will be required to
complete the urban section for the south half of 80th Street to the east plat line. Direct lot
access to minor collector streets is allowed and Lots 1‐4, Block 1 will have driveways to 80th
Street.
Within the subject site, the preliminary plat provides for extension of Marlowe Avenue north
from Arbor Creek 3rd Addition to 80th Street and extension of 79th Street east from Arbor Creek
5th Addition to Marlowe Avenue. Lots 5‐12, Block 1; Lots 1‐7, Block 2; and Lots 1‐9, Block 3 all
access these internal local streets. The local streets are proposed with 60 feet of right‐of‐way
and a 28 foot wide street section. The design of the local streets is consistent with the
requirements of the Subdivision Ordinance and Engineering Manual.
The developer has provided profile plans for all of the streets within the preliminary plat. The
proposed streets comply with the design specifications of Section 10‐8‐5 of the Subdivision
Ordinance and the standard plates of the Engineering Manual.
The cost of all street signs is to be paid for by the developer at the time of final plat approval.
The developer must provide for the installation and operation of street lights required by
Section 8‐8‐4 of the City Code at street intersections and midblock points longer than 900 feet
at the time of final plat approval.
All street construction plans are subject to review and approval of the City Engineer.
Sidewalks. Consistent with Section 10‐8‐D.1 of the Subdivision Ordinance, a five foot wide
concrete sidewalk is included on one side of the local streets within the preliminary plat. The
streets align and extend existing sidewalks within Arbor Creek 3rd and Arbor Creek 5th Additions
to complete the pedestrian connections within these neighborhoods.
Section 10‐8‐D.2 of the Subdivision Ordinance requires a sidewalk on both sides of minor
collector streets. There is an existing trail on the north side of 80th Street from MacIver Avenue
the full width of the Prairieview Elementary campus that will be extended east into the Prairie
Pointe subdivision. ISD 728 has requested that a sidewalk be included abutting 80th Stret
within the proposed preliminary plat and a cross walk be provided at the east driveway to
Praireview Elementary as part of the school’s Safe Routes to School Program. The sidewalk
abutting Lots 1‐5, Block 1 and Lot 1, Block 3 must be added to the plans.
4
It is recommended that City staff contact the owners of Lots 2‐4, Block 1, Arbor Creek 5th
Addition to the west, which also front to 80th Street, to see if there is interest in having the
sidewalk on the south side of 80th Street extended to abut these lots also.
Lot Requirements. The table below outlines the lot requirements of the R‐4 District and R‐5
Districts. All of the proposed lots comply with the minimum dimensions of the applicable
zoning district and all lots have suitable building envelopes within required setbacks. The mean
lot area is 11,712 square feet indicating a balanced range of lot sizes within the preliminary plat
consistent with the character of surrounding neighborhoods.

Landscaping. Section 11‐19‐2.B of the Zoning Ordinance requires planting two trees per lot.
The trees are to be planted at the time a house is constructed on each lot with a security paid
with the building permit to ensure installation of sod and trees. The type and sizes of proposed
trees must comply with Section 11‐19‐2.B.3 of the Zoning Ordinance.
Park and Trail Dedication. The 2012 Future Parks and Trails Plan does not identify acquisition
of land for land for public parks within the area of the subject site. Park and trail dedication
requirements will therefore be satisfied by payment of a cash fee in lieu of land. The cash fee in
lieu of land will be the amount in effect on the fee schedule at the time of final plat approval
and paid at the time the development agreement is executed.
Utility Plan. Trunk sewer and water utilities are available at the property. The developer has
provided a plan for extension of lateral sewer and water utilities to serve the proposed single
family lots. All utility issues are subject to review and approval of the City Engineer.
The developer will pay sewer and water availability charges at the time of final plat approval
with execution of the development agreement. Payment of sewer and water connection
charges will be paid at the time a building permit is issued for each lot. The utility availability
and connection charges will be those fees in effect at the time of final plat or building permit
approval, respectively.
Grading Plan. The developer has submitted a grading plan for the proposed development.
The proposed development includes a storm water basin within Outlot A to provide for water
quality treatment and rate control such that runoff will not leave the subject site at a rate
greater than predevelopment conditions. Outlot A will be deeded to the City as required by
Section 10‐8‐12.D of the Subdivision Ordinance.
5
The subject site is within the Otsego Creek watershed district and a stormwater area charge will
be required to be paid at the time of final plat approval and execution of the development
agreement.
All grading, drainage, wetland, and erosion control issues are subject to review and approval of
the City Engineer.
Easements. Section 10‐8‐12 of the Subdivision Ordinance requires dedication of drainage and
utility easements at the perimeter of all lots and over all stormwater management facilities.
The required drainage and utility easements are shown at the perimeter of lots are to be a
minimum of 10 feet wide (overlaying side lot lines five feet on each side).
The property survey identifies an existing drainage and utility easement at the northeast corner
of the subject site. This easement no longer serves a public purpose upon approval of a final
plat for the proposed development. The final plat for the proposed development will provide
for dedication of public right‐of‐way and dedication of drainage and utility easements necessary
for stormwater management and utility purposes
All easements are subject to review and approval of the City Engineer.
Phasing Plan. The developer intends to final plat the subject site in phases consisting of Lots 1‐
4 and 9‐12, Block 1 and Lots 1‐4, Block 2. The portions of the preliminary plat not final platted
as lots and blocks with the first phase will be platted as an outlot. The proposed phasing plan is
subject to further review by City staff and approval of the City Council at the time of final plat
approval.
Existing Structures. There are existing structures on both of the parcels included in the
preliminary plat. These structures will be required to be removed as a condition of final plat
approval or a plan for maintenance of the house on the east parcel submitted.

B. The property lies within the West Sewer District and is guided Low Density Residential land uses by the
2012 Otsego Comprehensive Plan, as amended.
C. The property is zoned R-4, Residential Single Family District.
D. The applicant is proposing to amend the Zoning Map to rezone the property to be preliminary
platted as Lots 5-8, Block 1; Lots 5-7, Block 2; and Lots 1-9, Block 3 Prairie View Estates as R-5,
Residential Single and Two Family District.
E. The Planning Commission and City Council must take into consideration the possible effects of the
request with their judgment based upon (but not limited to) the criteria outlined in Section 11-3-2.F of
the Zoning Ordinance:
1. The proposed action's consistency with the specific policies and provisions of the Otsego
Comprehensive Plan.
Finding: The Comprehensive Plan guides the subject site for low density residential
development within the West Sewer District. The proposed single family development with a
density of 2.89 dwelling units per acre (not including Outlot A) is consistent with the land uses
guided by the Comprehensive Plan.
2. The proposed use's compatibility with present and future land uses of the area.
Finding: The subject site is surrounded by the existing and planned land uses shown in the table
below. The proposed single family lots are consistent with the on-going buildout of the
adjacent Arbor Creek subdivision (zoned R4 District) and preliminary plat of Prairie Pointe
(zoned R5) district. The preliminary plat provides for lots with similar lots and width abutting
the two adjacent approved subdivisions as a transition area.

North Institutional INS District Prairie View E-8
East LD Residential R5 District Single family (Prairie Pointe)
South LD Residential R-4 District Single family (Arbor Creek)
West LD Residential A-1 District Single family (Arbor Creek)

Ordinance and other provisions of the City Code.
Finding: The proposed subdivision complies with the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance,
Subdivision Ordinance, and Engineering Manual.
4. Traffic generation of the proposed use in relation to capabilities of streets serving the property.
Finding: The proposed subdivision is accessed from 80th Street east of MacIver Avenue. With
construction of Prairie View Elementary and Middle School, 80th Street was improved to a minor
collector street. MacIver Avenue is an improved residential collector street. These streets
have capacity sufficient to accommodate traffic generated by the proposed development.
v1-3May22 3
5. The proposed use can be accommodated by existing public services and facilities and will not
overburden the City's service capacity.
Finding: The subject site is an infill development within the West Sewer District. The City has
anticipated urban development within the West Sewer District and there is adequate public
service capacity to accommodate the proposed subdivision.
F. The planning report dated 28 April 2022 prepared by the City Planner, The Planning Company LLC, is
incorporated herein.
