| | | | | | | | Subject: Final Plat of Windermere South Fourth Addition | | |
| | | | | | | | Policy/Action Requested: Approve Resolution No. R2021-029, a resolution approving the Final Plat of Windermere South Fourth Addition, and move its adoption. | | |
| | | | | | | | Recommendation:
Staff approves the action requested, as the City Council approved the Preliminary Plat and the proposed Final Plat is generally consistent with that approved Preliminary Plat.
| | |
| | | | | | | | Discussion: D.R. Horton, Inc. – Minnesota, applicant, and La Tour Farms LP, property owners, have made application for Final Plat of Windermere South 4th Addition. The subject property is located within the Windermere neighborhood (located north of Astoria Drive and west of Attenborough Street).
The applicant has proposed a single-family residential plat of approximately 53 acres with a net development area of 40.2 acres. The proposed development includes 126 single-family residential lots, 75 lots that would be 55' wide and 51 lots that would be 65' wide. The proposed density is well within the requirements of the single-family residential guiding and the R-1B zoning. This subdivision will look generally similar to the other D.R. Horton projects in this area (house designs, setbacks, etc.).
D.R. Horton proposed a land swap to allow for the construction of a public roadway and residential lots that were incorporated into the original Windermere Addition plat. They proposed a land swap of 4,798 square feet of city-owned land for 7,550 square feet of their land, which the City Council has already supported and is incorporated into this plat proposal.
City departments, Scott County and other outside agencies were given the opportunity to review and provide comments regarding this application. City Engineering, Shakopee Fire, MVTA and SPUC support the request, provided the proposed plat complies with the conditions noted in the draft resolution for the City Council’s consideration.
