' FOR PROPERTY LOCATED AT 2190 WAYZATA BOULEVARD ' -FILE NO.2212 � . � WI�REAS,Sidney and Barbara Rebers(hereinafter the "Applicants")on February 19, 1997, filed a formal subdivision application with the City of Orono (hereinafter "City") for approval of a replat of property legally described as: Outlot E, Sugar Woods, except that part;, shown as Parcel 342A on Minnesota Department of Transportation Right-of-Way Plat No. =27-70, Hennepin County, Minnesota (hereinafter "the Property"); and WHEREAS, this replat is proposed for the purpose of converting said Outlot E to buildable lot status in order that the Property may be developed, as required by the City � '•� as a condition of the plat of Sugar Woods; and WHEREAS, after duly published and mailed notice in accordance with � Minnesota Statutes 462.358 et. seq. and the City of Orono Zoning and Subdivision Codes, the Orono Planning Commission held a public hearing on March 17, 1997, at which time all persons desiring to be heard concerning this application were giveri the opportunity to speak thereon; and r I WHEREAS, at its regular meeting held on April 14, 1997, the Orono City ' Council considered the subdivision application of the Applicant and made the following � findings of fact: ± 1. The property is located within the B-1 Retail Sales Business Zoning District ' requiring a minimum lot area of 20;000 s.f. and a minimum lot width of 100'. ; 2. The property contains a total area,of 41,612 s.f. and has a defined width of approximately 146'. 3. The proposed plat consists of one commercial lot meeting the minimum lot standard requirements of the B-1 Zoning District. i t ���� Page 1 of 9 . I � t � O� ;� O O �b� - CITY of ORO�TO � � ti ��� �G'�' RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL � 9kESH�g' NO. � � "7 � 4. The property is served by municipal sewer and water. 5. The property abuts U.S. Highway 12 as well as Outlot D, Sugar Woods, a segment of a proposed future frontage road comdor platted within Sugar Woods. 6. In 1987 the City adopted Comprehensive Plan Amendment No. 2 which planned for the future development of a frontage road between Brown Road and Willow Drive, paralleling Highway 12. In 1987 it was anticipated that traffic on Highway 12 would continue to increase as a result of the upcoming completion . � of Interstate Highway 394. The purpose of this planned frontage road was to reduce and/or eliminate access directly to and from Highway 12, generally for ; safety and traffic flow reasons. Comprehensive Plan Amendment No. 2 specifically addressed road improvements needed prior to development of the � commercial corridor as follows: � � � "Prior to the development of the commercial portion of this property, the existing intersection at Brown Road and Highway 12 shall be improved ; so that safety concerns associated with the current use and future increased use of this intersection are addressed. Configuration of the frontage road and North Brown Road would be determined at the time of development." . Orono's 1994-95 reconstruction of Brown Road alleviated alignment concerns � with the 12Brown intersection, and Mn/DOT's 1995-96 safety improvements on Highway 12 similarly alleviated a number of safety concerns. 7. The plat of Sugar Woods, completed in July 1989, included two commercially � � zoned parcels (Outlots E and F) abutting Highway 12. These two parcels were platted as outlots, rather than as buildable lots, because the Applicant at that time wished to delay decisions regazding future access to the commercial property ' � until such time that it was developed. � 8. The Sugaz Woods plat conformed to the comprehensive plan by c"reating Outlot , D, a short segment of the proposed future east/west frontage road. Outlot D, however, only provides a corridor from the west boundary of Sugar Woods to '� Page 2 of 9 . � � �� � O O '� �b- - CITY of ORONO � � � �� G'�' RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL � �9kESH0�'� NO. � � � � .. . the northwest corner of Outlot F. The City's intent in approving the plat of Sugar Woods was that at some fuhue time when Outlot F is developed, the remaining frontage road segment eastward to Brown Road would be defined and platted. 9. On December 12, 1988, the Orono City Council adopted Resolution No. 2554 granting preliminary plat approval, conditional use permit and variances for the plat of SUGAR WOODS. Page 8, paragraph 4.E stated that the subdivider's agreement should: "Clarify that Outlot D (portion of future east/west road) is to be fully developed at the time of future development of the commercial corridor. The access road will be fully installed at the time of either the • applicant's development of the commercial corridor or as a result of any other condition that may require the installation of the road prior to applicant's development of the commercial corridor." 10. The foregoing language was not put in the subdivider's agreement, but it was put in the resolution granting final plat approval. On July 10, 1989, the City Council adopted Resolution No.2653 approving the fmal plat of SUGAR WOODS. Page . 4, paragraph 4 stated: "4. Outlot D, a portion of future easdwest road located within the commercial zoned portion of the property, shall be installed at the time �of the development of Outlots E or F or the development of the Wear , property (unless the City has obtained an alternate legal access through Outlot E to the Wear property all subject to the approval of the City)." 11. Pursuant to the terms of the preliminary plat resolution and final plat resolution, on September 8, 1989, Rebers Construction Co. and Sidney and Barbara Rebers granted public roadway easements over Outlot D to the City of Orono. Said easements were filed with the Hennepin County registrar of Titles as�Document Nos. 2038791 and 2038792. � Page 3 of 9 � °� � o 0 �e- - CITY of ORONO � � �� G'�' RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL �`�k'Esxo�'� �NO. � 9 '� 2 12. Thereafter, the Orono Building & Zoning Administrator and City Attorney objected to certain terms of said easements; said easements were renegotiated between the City and the Applicants; and a replacement public road easement over Outlot D was granted to and accepted by the City subject to the following: �"1. No road shall be installed by Grantee until a building permit has been issued for construction of a commercial building on Outlot E, SUGAR WOODS (in which case the road may e�end no further east than the Northerly extension of the East boundary of Outlot E) or on Outlot F, SUGAR WOODS (in which case the road may extend the full length of Outlot D). • "2. The south edge of any road built by grantee shall be no further North thari the South boundary of Outlot D, SUGAR WOODS. "3. If and when a frontage road or service road is built connecting Outlots E and F, SUGAR WOODS, across land South of Outlot D, SUGAR WOODS, or an easement for such a road is dedicated, granted or condemned, this easement shall automatically expire." (Quit Claim Deed dated May 30, 1990, recorded June 25, 1990 as Registrar of Titles Document No. 2105974.) 13. It appears that Interstate Highway 394 will not be extended along the current , corridor of U.S. Highway 12; it appeazs that a bypass route will be extended from the current freeway ternunus near the easterly boundary of Orono to the intersection of Highway 12 and County Road 6. When this bypass is operational, tr�c on Highway 12 adjacent to the Property will decline. However, the resultant tr�c volumes on Highway 12 adjacent to the property at that time are anticipated by the City to be at a level that would generally indicate the need for a limited access highway. • Page 4 of 9 . � � O ' V • O O ��� - C ITY of ORONO � F � �� G'�' RESOWTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL �� � �`�kEsxog'� � . No. 3 9 '7 � . 14. The Council finds that although the ultimate access for the Property should be via a frontage road, the form of future development of the adjoining and nearby properties should be taken into account at the time the frontage road is developed. Such future development has not been determined, but it will influence if, how, where and when the frontage road is constructed. Therefore, the Council chooses not to install the Highway 12 frontage road through Outlot D, SUGAR WOODS, at this time, whether or not Outlot E is developed with a commercial building, without waiving its right to require or order such installation in the future. 15. The Council fuids that suitable interim access to Outlot E from Highway 12 may be possible using the Mn/DOT right-of way directly west of Outlot E, which would allow an access to be constructed opposite Brimhall Avenue. Such an • access location affords an opportunity for shared access to serve the adjacent properry in the plat of East Willow Woods. 16. Outlot D, Sugar Woods, is intended to serve as a trail corridor as well as a frontage road corridor, and therefore requires a continuous width of 60' in order to accomodate both uses. Outlot D currently is 60' in width at the west end but tapers to a width of 40' at its east end. Additional right-of-way is needed by the City via creation of an additional Outlot and granting of drainage, utility, road and trail easements in order that the 60' corridor be provided. 17. The City Engineer has additionally recommended that a 5' drainage and utility �easement be granted along the south side of the added right-of-way outlot, within proposed Lot 1. � 18. The easement granting the City rights to develop a frontage road in Outlot D does not grant an easement for drainage or utilities purposes, which is necessary in order for the City to use it for the intended purpose. 19. Proposed Lot 1 is subject to the Park Dedication requirements of Municipal Code • � Section 11.62. � . Page 5 of 9 � °� ^ � o o � �b. - C ITY of ORONO � � � ti ��� �G'�' , RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL � �kESH�S�`' NO. e`3 �.� � 20. Any development proposed within proposed Lot 1 will be subject to a commercial site plan review process before the Planning Commission and City Council. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that based upon one or more of the findings noted above, the City Council of the City of Orono hereby approves the preliminary plat application of Sidney and Bazbaza Rebers per plat drawings by Wayne D. Cordes, a licensed surveyor employed by BRW, Inc. dated March 4, 1997, for the conversion of the Property into Lot 1, Block 1, and Outlot A, SUGAR WOODS 2ND ADDITION, subject to the following conditions: . � � 1. Lot 1 shall be allowed direct access to U.S. Highway 12 only if the applicants are successful in relocating their existing access to Highway 12, by obtaining an access permit from the Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) permitting access over the triangular parcel of land owned by MnDOT across from the intersection of Brimhall Avenue and Highway 12. Any direct access to Highway 12 which is not directly opposite Brimhall Avenue will not be allowed. 2. The right-in/right-out access of Lot 1 to Highway 12 at Brinhall Avenue is approved on a permanent basis. The left-in/left-out access of Lot 1 to Highway 12 at Brimhall Avenue is approved on an interim basis. At such time as a frontage road is installed to provide alternative access to Lot 1, the City shall , have the right to terminate the right-in/right-out access at Brunhall Avenue upon payment of just compensation and the right to terminate the left-in/left-out access � at Brimhall Avenue without payment of any compensation; provided that Lot 1's access to Highway 12 will not be terminated unless the Highway 12 accesses of the other parcels served by the frontage road are similarly terminated. 3. The City reserves the right to control access to Lot 1 from the Wear properry directly east of of�Lb`t 1 in the commercial site plan review process. Applicant � Page 6 of 9 . t . � O� ' . . . � . . ..,. ..� • • O O ��e- - CITY of ORONO � � � ti ��� �G'�' RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL �kESHOg' � � NO. 3 9 '� 2 . shall, if found necessary by the City, place barriers to prohibit access from the Wear property. 4. Lot 1 shall bear the total reasonable costs of constructing the portion of the frontage road directly adjacent to Lot 1. If the frontage road is built, the owner of Lot 1 reserves the right to contest the necessity and feasibility of the frontage road improvement. The Council will require at the time of fmal platting security ' in the form of a cash escrow, letter of credit or other form of security acceptable to the City. � 5.
