Subject:
Final Plat of Windermere 2nd Addition
Policy/Action Requested:
Adopt Resolution No. R2018-009, a resolution approving the Final Plat of Windermere 2nd Addition, and move its adoption.
Recommendation:
Staff and outside agencies have reviewed the proposal and have recommended that the City Council adopt Resolution No. R2018-009.
Discussion:
D.R. Horton, Inc. - Minnesota has made application for Final Plat of Windermere 2nd Addition. The subject property is approximately 9 acres, and is located south of Hwy. 169, west of Windermere Way/Marystown Rd. (CSAH 15), and north of 17th Avenue (CSAH 16).

D.R. Horton, Inc. – Minnesota received rezoning, reguiding, PUD and Preliminary Plat approval for this project in April, 2017. The First Addition was approved on July 18, 2017. The applicant is requesting the consideration of the City Council for their Final Plat of Windermere 2nd Addition, which is consistent with the Preliminary Plat approved by the City Council. They are proposing 27 single family lots on the 9 acres in this second phase of development. The developer and staff have thoroughly reviewed the proposed project, particularly the sanitary sewer service design, and have developed a layout that complies with City regulations.

Park dedication is not required for Windermere 2nd addition. As outlined in City Code 150.65, the applicant provided excess parkland with the 1st addition. The applicant was required to provide 1.55 acres and dedicated 5.29 acres resulting in a credit of 3.74 acres for the future additions. The 2nd addition requirement is calculated:
Single Family Homes: 27 lots X 3 persons per lot/75 people/acre = 1.08 acres
Credit of 3.74 acres – 1.08 acres = 2.66 acre credit remaining.
Budget Impact:
Once this site is developed, the tax revenue benefit of this property to the city will increase.
