| | | | | | | | Discussion:
Stuart Jacobson, property owner, & Donnay Homes, Inc., applicant, have requested the following:
1. an annexation of property from within Jackson Township (PID 06-9130102, 06-9130103 & 06-9130104);
2. the rezoning of the 18.979 acre parcels from Urban Expansion Zone (UER) to Urban Residential (R-1B) Zone;
The property in question is located at 920 128th Street West, just east of Marystown Road and north of CSAH 78 (see attached Site Aerial), which is presently located within Jackson Township. The property owner is working with a developer (Donnay Homes, Inc.) to create a single family residential development on this property. Access to the proposed development would be from extending Pinia Street from the north in the first phase, with the 2nd phase linking to 128th Street (with city services extended from the adjacent subdivision - Countryside 2nd Addition). Should this annexation and rezoning be approved, the developer will also incorporate some of the Shakopee Veterinary Clinic property (12675 Marystown Road) into this development. When the Vet Clinic was annexed into the City in 2018, part of the property was rezoned to R-1B in anticipation of developing at the time the surrounding (Jacobson) property is annexed and developed, which is what is presently being proposed.
This application request would be consistent with the Orderly Annexation Agreement (OAA) approved between Jackson Township and the City. Should this annexation be approved, other conditions identified within this OAA document shall be applied (i.e., municipal reimbursement, etc.). This property is located within Area E, as identified in the OAA. The property is guided Suburban Residential, which is consistent with the R-1B (urban single family residential) Zone.
City Engineering has provided comments should this request be approved. Those comments would be pertinent to the platting of this property. Scott County has indicated they may require the adjacent commercial business to remove their direct access to Marystown Road once alternative access is available. This should be planned for during site layout.
The City Council may grant a zoning ordinance amendment when it finds that one or more of the following criteria exists:
1. The original zoning ordinance is in error.
2. Significant changes in goals in community goals and policies have taken place.
3. Significant changes in city-wide or neighborhood development patterns have occurred.
4. The comprehensive plan requires another provision.
Staff believes revising the zoning for this property meets more than one of the criteria. The current zoning of the annexation property is covered by the Scott County Zoning Ordinance and per the annexation process, this zoning designation remains until changed and approved by the City. The parcel is currently zoned Urban Expansion Reserve (UER), and is guided Suburban Residential in the City’s 2040 Comp Plan. Zoning this property to R-1B Zone would be consistent with the Suburban Residential guiding (3-6 units/acre density).
