| | | | | | | | | FROM: | Mark Noble, Senior Planner | | TO: | Planning Commission |
|
| | | | | | | | Subject:
PUBLIC HEARING - Annexation of Portions of Zumbro Avenue and Colburn Drive |
| | | | | | | | Policy/Action Requested:
Recommend approval to the City Council of draft Resolution R2023-082, a resolution approving the annexation of property. |
| | | | | | | | Recommendation:
Approve the requested action. |
| | | | | | | | Discussion:
The City of Shakopee is proposing an Annexation of portions of Zumbro Avenue Roadway Easement located south of CSAH 78, and portions of Colburn Drive Public Right-of-Way located North of Old Brick Yard Road and south of Mobile Manor Drive.
The Annexation of these public rights-of-way/roadway easements are necessary due to development of land adjacent to these roadways. D.R. Horton has received annexation, zoning and platting of property along Zumbro Avenue south of CSAH 78, but there is a portion of Zumbro Avenue that is still in Jackson Township that should be annexed into the city as this roadway will become a city road, with the city and developer responsible for the construction and maintenance of this roadway. That is similar to the Colburn Drive right-of-way, which is adjacent to the River Valley Business Park and SPU developments, with that segment of Colburn Drive to be built and maintained by the developers & city.
This application request would be consistent with the Orderly Annexation Agreement (OAA) approved between Jackson Township and the City (this is in Areas A, B & C of the OAA), which states that these areas are eligible for annexation any time after December 31, 2017. Should this annexation be approved, other conditions identified within this OAA document shall be applied.
