CMP Part 3B. Lamd Um Plaa a-1 <br />extent limited by environmental constraints, each such development <br />must be analyzed and reviewed on an individual basis. Thepropcrties <br />identified for residential dev’elopment at densities of 2*6 units per <br />acre iiKlude properties guide-planned for such use as a result of <br />Comprehensive Plan Amendment No. 2 in 1 988, as well as properties <br />heretofore planned for single family development at rural densities. <br />All identified properties are located relatively high in the Lake <br />Minnetonka water^ed, allowing ample opportunity for effective <br />stormwater management. These properties arc detailed in the <br />following tables and maps. <br />site Dcacriptioo: <br />SITE A <br />(Parcel Group I, Map3B-7) <br />541-acre parcel located north of Highw ay 12 <br />between Willow Drive and Old Crystal Bay Road <br />Background, Site Characteristics Planned Development Parameters <br />A number of potential development <br />schemes for this parcel which included <br />townhomes ond commercial development <br />were reviewed in 1987 which became the <br />basis for CMP Amendment H2 adopted <br />May 23. 1988. <br />This site was not subsequently developed, <br />with the exception that the City ofOrono <br />municipal facilities were developed at the <br />west end of the parcel in 1991. A <br />development option for the vacant parcel <br />was generated by the City’s consulting <br />planner, DSU Inc., in 1998 at the City’s <br />request, taking into account new <br />information including the new MnDOT <br />stormwater pond; City’s new topography- <br />maps suggesting greater areas of wetland <br />than previously anticipated; and the initial <br />development of Kelley Parkway that <br />established a service road corridor at the <br />west end. The intent of this plan set w as to <br />show how towuhomes and a small number <br />of commercial sites might be developed. <br />The result of the 1987 study was adoption of a plan with <br />the follow ing components: <br />a. An east-west service road w ill be developed connecting <br />Old Crystal Bay Road and Willow Drive, located <br />approximately 300-500 feet north of Highway 12. This <br />service road will allow for one tier of developable lots <br />between the service road and Highway 12, such lots to have <br />access to the serv ice road but not to Highway 12 due to <br />traffic considerations. <br />b. The portion of the property between Highway 12 and <br />the service road may be dexeioped with one tier of <br />commercial uses, to potentially include professional office <br />as well as limited service uses, and retail uses accessory to <br />the office use. <br />c. The portion of property north of the service road may be <br />developed for residential uses, potentially a mix of single <br />family and multi-family uses at a density of 3-6 units per <br />dry buildable acre. <br />d. Conversion from 2-acre rural zoning to to the mixture of <br />uses described above will be subject to strict performance <br />standards whicb were added to the Orono Zoning Code in <br />1989. <br />City ofOroBoCc <br />StV«Mikcr 2SM <br />iHy Maaagencat Plan Page3B-34
