MINUTES OF THE ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING Monday, November 26, 2007 7:00 o'clock p.m. ZONING ADMINISTRATOR'S REPORT 3. #07 -3310 RYAN COMPANIES US, INC., 2765 WAYZATA BOULEVARD WEST — ENCROACHMENT AGREEMENT AND FINAL PLAT — RESOLUTION NO. 5693 Genevieve McJilton, Ryan Companies, was present. Turner stated the applicants are requesting final plat approval and approval of the development agreement for the Crystal Bay Development Center and the encroachment agreement for the continued use of the right -of -way of Orono Industrial Boulevard for outdoor storage. The site plan for the buildings was reviewed approximately one year ago at the time of preliminary plat approval. The preliminary plat approval has been extended to September 10, 2008. All the necessary changes have been incorporated into the final plat. The applicant has either satisfied the other requirements for final plat approval or has agreed to satisfy them before the plat is filed. The submitted final plans are acceptable to the City Engineer; although the plans for work in the ditch along • new Highway 12 and alteration of the Kenobe Pond outlet structure may need to be added, depending on Council direction. Nearly all the drainage from the development will flow to the ditch along new Highway 12, past the south end of Morrie's property and into the storm water pond recently constructed by MnDOT just east of Morrie's property. MnDOT and the MCWD have indicated that, at the point the impervious lot coverage on either Ryan's property or Morrie's property exceeds 72 percent, improvements need to be made to the ditch and the outlet structure. The development will reach this 72 percent level with construction of the last new building. It is the understanding of Staff that MnDOT is in agreement with the manner in which the ditch work is to be done. The only issue that Staff has with the proposal is when the ditch work is to be completed. Staff recommends these improvements be done with construction of the first new building, that the plans for the work be added to the final plans before the plat is released for filing, and that the MnDOT permit for the work also be obtained before the plat is released for filing. The applicant's position is that the drainage improvements should not be required until either Ryan or Morrie's obtains a building • permit that will increase the impervious lot coverage beyond 72 percent.
