PLANNING REPORT
TO: Otsego Planning Commission
FROM: D. Daniel Licht
REPORT DATE: 14 May 2025
60-DAY DATE: 21 June 2025
RE: Otsego – Waterfront Commons; Sunshine Pediatric Dentistry
TPC FILE: 101.02
BACKGROUND
Arrow Companies, Inc. has submitted an application to develop Outlot A, Otsego Developments
Addition located at the northeast quadrant of TH 101 and 90th Street. The proposed
development is a 3,495 square foot dentist office that requires consideration of a PUD
Development Stage Plan, vacation of existing drainage and utility easement, and final plat that
are subject to review by the Planning Commission and approval of the City Council. The
submitted plans also illustrate a 3,000 square foot expansion of the proposed building. A public
hearing has been noticed for the Planning Commission meeting on 19 May 2025.
Exhibits:

Architectural plans dated 05-12-2025 (7 sheets)
Civil plans dated 05.12.2025 (11 sheets)
Final Plat
ANALYSIS
Comprehensive Plan. The 2023 Comprehensive Plan guides the subject property for
commercial uses as part of a retail, service, and office district located adjacent to the TH 101
and CSAH 39 interchange. The proposed building will provide for a pediatric dentist office
expanding services and expanding commercial building space within the City. The proposed
land use is consistent with the Future Land Use Plan.
2
Zoning. The subject property is zoned PUD, Planned Unit District with allowed uses specified as
being those permitted, conditional, and interim uses as allowed in the B-1, Retail Business
District. The proposed dentist office is a permitted use within the B-1 District and PUD District.
Surrounding Uses. The subject property abuts TH 101 to the west. Areas to the north, east,
and south of the subject property are all within the Otsego Waterfront East PUD District. The
surrounding uses consist of medical and professional offices, a child-oriented recreation use, a
restaurant, and senior housing. The proposed PUD Development Stage Plan for the subject
property will be complementary to existing and planned land uses within Otsego Waterfront
East.
Lot Requirements. The Otsego Waterfront East PUD District establishes no minimum lot area
or width requirements. The suitability of the lot to accommodate the proposed development is
based on the ability to comply with applicable setbacks, off-street parking, and other site design
requirements. The Otsego Waterfront East PUD District establishes setbacks of 30 feet from
public street rights-of-way and 10 feet from interior lot lines. The proposed development of Lot
1, Block 1 complies with the required setbacks.
The submitted plans illustrate a 3,000 square foot expansion of the proposed building. The
expansion encroaches into a drainage and utility easement and over a trunk watermain. The
plans for the future expansion will need to be adjusted to avoid the encroachment into the
drainage and utility easement or other solution approved by the City Engineer at such time as
the planned expansion is to occur. The future expansion of the principal building will be subject
to site and building plan review at the time the construction is proposed.
Building Plans. The developer has submitted architectural plans for the proposed 3,495 square
foot dental office building to be constructed on Lot 1, Block 1.
Exterior Materials. The Otsego Waterfront East PUD Design Guidelines and Section 11-
17-4.D.1 of the Zoning Ordinance establish exterior finish requirements for the
proposed building. The architectural plans include a schedule for the exterior elevation
materials, which indicates ledgestone and glass (Grade A) materials comprise 67.1
percent of the exterior finish, with metal and wood-look (Grade B) materials used for
32.9 percent of the exterior finish. The exterior finishes and mix of materials comply
with the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance.
Height. Principal buildings within the Waterfront East PUD District are allowed to be up
to three stories or 35 feet in height. The proposed building is a single-story structure
with a height of 12.0 feet to the top of the roof and 15.5 feet to the top of the angled
roof sections. The proposed building complies with the height limits of the Waterfront
East PUD District.
3
The submitted plans do not indicate the location of building mechanical equipment. If
mounted on the roof of the building, the mechanical units must be screened by the
parapet or other measures so as not to be visible from 90th Street and Quantrelle
Avenue. This requirement will need to be verified by the Zoning Administrator prior to
issuance of a building permit.
Access. The subject property abuts 90th Street and Quantrelle Avenue. The access the three
commercial lots within the preliminary plat is shared via one driveway to 90th Street and one
driveway to Quantrelle Avenue. An ingress/egress and cross parking easement has been
recorded with the Otsego Developments Addition final plat.
The access to 90th Street is be limited to right-in/right-out only due to the existing median
within the four lane roadway. The existing access is 280 feet from Quantrelle Avenue and more
than 320 feet from the northbound TH 101 entrance ramp. The access to Quantrelle Avenue is
setback at least 200 feet from existing driveways onto Quantrelle Avenue. The location of both
of the existing driveways complies with the spacing requirements of Section 11-21-6 of the
Zoning Ordinance.
A traffic study completed for the Mississippi Landings development evaluated the capacity of
90th Street and Quantrelle Avenue. The study indicated that full build out of the Waterfront
East, including the subject property, would necessitate a dedicated right turn lane at the 90th
Street and Quantrelle Avenue intersection. The Otsego Developments Addition final plat
dedicates right-of-way for the right turn lane. The timing for construction of the right turn lane
is deferred until Outlot B, Otsego Developments is final platted and would only be built if a
need for the turn lane is determined at that time.
Off-Street Parking. The submitted plans illustrate the 59 off-street parking spaces constructed
with Phase 1 and 35 spaces to be constructed with Phase 2 for a total of 94 spaces. The Phase 1
approval included a proof-of-parking agreement for construction of five spaces east of the
Phase 1 building and the submitted plans illustrate 12 additional spaces that would be
constructed with the planned future expansion of the Phase 2 building. The table below
outlines that the number of off-street parking spaces available within Phases 1 and 2 under the
shared ingress/egress and cross parking easement complies with Section 11-21-13 of the Zoning
Ordinance.

The off-street parking spaces are designed as nine feet wide by 20 feet in depth and the spaces
abutting the sidewalk or perimeter of the parking area as 18 feet deep (with two foot overhang)
accessed via 24 foot wide drive aisles in compliance with Section 11-21-7.B of the Zoning
Ordinance.
The parking area is shown to be surfaced with asphalt and surrounded by perimeter concrete
curb as required by Section 11-21-7.C and D of the Zoning Ordinance. The construction
specifications for the off-street parking area are to be subject to review and approval of the City
Engineer.
Sidewalks. There is an existing sidewalk abutting the south line of the subject property. The
civil plans illustrate construction of a sidewalk along the front line of the proposed building. A
connection along the west side of the driveway to 90th Street must be added between the
sidewalk adjacent to 90th Street to the sidewalk at the front of the building to allow for public
access to the proposed building and other uses within the Waterfront Commons development.
Landscaping. A landscape plan has been submitted that provides for a planting turf grass and
one ornamental tree. Section 11-19-2.B.2 of the Zoning Ordinance requires landscaping be
installed:
a. The boundary or perimeter of the proposed site at points adjoining other property.
b. The immediate perimeter of the structure.
c. The perimeter of parking and loading areas.
Section 11-21-7.K of the Zoning Ordinance further requires that off-street parking areas be
landscaped so as to be screened from view of public rights-of-way.
The landscape plan must be revised to include shade and/or ornamental trees in the yard along
90th Street and west side of the driveway accessing 90th Street. Tall grasses and shrubs should
also be incorporated to screen parking areas at a lower level and at the foundation of the
building. The revised landscape plan is to be subject to review and approval of the Zoning
Administrator.
Section 5-2-3.C.2 of the City Code requires installation of in-ground irrigation for the yards and
planting areas within the property, which must be indicated on the landscape plan.
5
Signs. The PUD Development Stage Plan approved for Phase 1 of Waterfront Commons
established allowances for the following signs within the development:
Freestanding signs:
o One freestanding sign not to exceed 320 square feet in area and a height not to
exceed 70 feet or 20 feet above the centerline elevation of TH 101 measured
perpendicular to the sign location, whichever is less.
o One freestanding sign not to exceed 64 square feet in area or 15 feet in height at
each driveway access to 90th Street and Quantrelle Avenue.
o All freestanding signs must be setback 10 feet from perimeter property lines.
Wall signs to be mounted on the principal buildings are allowed on all four elevations to
15 percent of the wall area of the building with no individual sign larger than 100 square
feet in area.
The submitted plans identify a freestanding pylon sign at the southwest corner of the subject
property, as well as a monument sign at the 90th Street access. The proposed pylon sign is not
provided for by the initial Waterfront Commons PUD General Development Plan approval and
should be removed from the plans unless supported by the Planning Commission.
The architectural plans do not identify proposed wall signs.
A sign permit subject to review and approval of the Zoning Administrator is required prior to
placement of any signs upon the property.
Exterior Lighting. Section 11-16-6 of the Zoning Ordinance establishes performance standards
for exterior lighting. An exterior lighting plan including photometric measurements of light
intensity and indicating the type, location, and height of all exterior light fixtures must be
submitted with application for a building permit. The exterior lighting plan is to be subject to
review and approval of the Zoning Administrator.
Waste Storage. The submitted plans show a location for waste storage containers along the
west side of the off-street parking area. Plans for the enclosure that comply with the
requirements of Section 11-18-4.C of the Zoning Ordinance for screening outdoor waste
storage areas must be submitted with application for a building permit. The waste enclosure
structure is to be subject to review and approval of the Zoning Adminstrator.
Utilities. The developer has submitted a utility plan for connection of the proposed building to
City sewer and water utilities. The City Engineer has met with the Utility Department to review
the submitted plans. All utility plans are subject to review and approval of the City Engineer.
6
The developer will pay Utility Availability Charges for Lot 1, Block 1 at the time of final plat
approval in accordance with the current Fee Schedule. Utility Connection Charges will be
collected when a building permit is issued for the proposed building subject to Fee Schedule in
effect at that time.
Grading Plan. Plans for grading, erosion control, and stormwater management have been
submitted for the property. All grading, drainage, and erosion control plans 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 each lot, over public utility lines, and regional stormwater
drainage facilities. The proposed final plat illustrates the required easements, which are subject
to review and approval of the City Engineer.
A drainage and utility easement dedicated at the southeast corner of Outlot A, Otsego
Waterfront Addition to overlay a catch basin is proposed to be vacated. The City Engineer is
requiring that the catch basin be relocated to the west curb of the private drive. With
relocation of the catch basin, the existing drainage and utility easement no longer serves a
public purpose.
Park Dedication. Section 10-8-15 of the Subdivision Ordinance establishes park dedication
requirements for new subdivisions. Park dedication requirements for Otsego Waterfront East,
including the subject property, were satisfied with the initial final plat approval with dedication
of park easements and improvements within the outlot encompassing the Mississippi River
frontage. No additional park dedication is required for the proposed final plat.
Development Contact. A development contract is required with final plat approval by Section
10-10-4.A of the Subdivision Ordinance to provide for completion of public improvements,
establishment of required securities, and payment of applicable fees related to the subdivision
of the subject property. Section 11-9-7 of the Zoning Ordinance also requires that the
developer enter into a performance agreement with the City to provide for construction of the
project improvements within the subject property. The City Attorney will draft the
development contract, which is subject to approval by City Council resolution concurrent with
the zoning and subdivision applications.

FROM: Ronald Wagner, P.E. City Engineer
DATE: May 7, 2025
RE: Sunshine Addition
We have reviewed the following information provided by Demarc on behalf of Arrow Companies
regarding the Sunshine Addition.
Site Development Plans and Preliminary Plat for Sunshine Addition, Otsego, dated 4/15/2025.
The submittal is to be considered for preliminary acceptance. We would offer the following
comments:
Preliminary Plat
1. The catch basin in proposed Lot 1, Block is to be replaced with a catch basin in west curb
line of the private drive and the grading plan modified accordingly; the final plat is also to be
revised to remove the drainage and utility easement overlaying the catch basin and stormwater
pipe.
Title Sheet
2. Add an approval signature block for City Engineer.
Details
3. Add Otsego Standard plate #301
Existing Conditions and Removals Plan
4. Removals of pavement for catch basin in private drive.
5. Removals of trail for ADA ramps at either side of private drive crossing.
Sunshine Addition
Page 2
Site Plan
6. Proposed monument sign is in easement, which is not allowed. Easement should be removed
with relocation of the catch basin as described above.
7. Proposed building extension cannot be within existing easement.
Grading & Drainage Plan
8. Regrade to southeast of building to be able to relocate catch basin and remove D& U
easement so monument sign can be located as proposed.
Utility Plan
9. Water and sewer access apparently was not relocated with Otsego Developments Addition to
prevent removal of a portion of private drive. Water and sewer utility service shall be
designed and constructed such that a minimal number of bends are required. All sanitary
sewer bends will need clean outs. The water service is located as close as feet from trail.
Unless directional drilled, portions of the trail will need to be removed. If trail removed,
replacement will be from needed ADA ramps to west until past improvements to minimize
joints. We highly recommend moving utility room to east side of building to eliminate these
issues.
10. With the building permit, a water meter along with a deduct irrigation meter will be required.
Irrigation line will also need a backflow preventer installed.
Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan
11. Will require update with catch basin relocated.
Landscape Plans
12. No comments.
Other Consideration
13. No comments.
Summary and/or Recommendation
14. Please make the corrections listed above and re-submit.

(Developer Installed Improvements)
SUNSHINE ADDITION
CONTRACT dated ____________________, 2025, by and between the CITY OF OTSEGO, a
Minnesota municipal corporation (“City”), and SUNSHINEMN PROPERTIES, LLC, a Minnesota limited
liability company (the “Developer”).
1. REQUEST FOR PLAT APPROVAL. The Developer has asked the City to approve a plat
for SUNSHINE ADDITION (referred to in this Contract as the "plat"). The land is situated in the County of

recorded plat thereof.
[Platted as Sunshine Addition, Wright County, Minnesota.]
2. CONDITIONS OF PLAT APPROVAL. The City hereby approves the plat on condition that

Sunshine Addition
3. RIGHT TO PROCEED. Within the plat or land to be platted, the Developer may not grade
or otherwise disturb the earth or remove trees, unless a grading permit has been approved by the City
Engineer following approval of a preliminary plat by the City Council, construct sewer lines, water lines,
streets, utilities, public or private improvements, or any buildings until all the following conditions have been
satisfied: 1) this contract has been fully executed by both parties and filed with the City Clerk, 2) the
necessary security has been received by the City, 3) the necessary insurance for the Developer and its
construction contractors has been received by the City, and 4) the plat has been filed with the Wright
County Recorder or Registrar of Titles’ office.
4. PHASED DEVELOPMENT. If the plat is a phase of a multi-phased preliminary plat, the
City may refuse to approve final plats of subsequent phases if the Developer has breached this Contract
and the breach has not been remedied. Development of subsequent phases may not proceed until
Development Contracts for such phases are approved by the City. Park dedication charges referred to in
this Contract are not being imposed on outlots, if any, in the plat that are designated in an approved
preliminary plat for future subdivision into lots and blocks. Such charges will be calculated and imposed
when the outlots are final platted into lots and blocks.

the preliminary plat approval for all phases not final platted shall lapse and be void unless final platted into
lots and blocks and outlots, within two (2) years after preliminary plat approval.
6. CHANGES IN OFFICIAL CONTROLS. For five (5) years from the date of this Contract, no
amendments to the City’s Comprehensive Plan or official controls shall apply to or affect the use,
development density, lot size, lot layout or dedications of the approved plat unless required by state or
federal law or agreed to in writing by the City and the Developer. Thereafter, notwithstanding anything in
this Contract to the contrary, to the full extent permitted by state law, the City may require compliance with
any amendments to the City’s Comprehensive Plan, official controls, platting or dedication requirements
enacted after the date of this Contract.

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

City with an “as-constructed” grading plan certified by a registered land surveyor or engineer that all storm
water treatment/infiltration basins and swales, have been constructed on public easements or land owned
by the City. The “as-constructed” plan shall include field verified elevations of the following: a) cross
sections of storm water treatment/infiltration basins; b) location and elevations along all swales, wetlands,
wetland mitigation areas if any, locations and dimensions of borrow areas/stockpiles, and installed
“conservation area” posts; and c) lot corner elevations and house pads, and all other items listed in City
Code. The City will withhold issuance of building permits until the approved certified grading plan is on file
with the City and all erosion control measures are in place as determined by the City Engineer. The
Developer certifies to the City that all lots with house footings placed on fill have been monitored and
constructed to meet or exceed FHA/HUD 79G specifications. The soils observation and testing report,
including referenced development phases and lot descriptions, shall be submitted to the Building Official for
