Motion carried. plan Planning Manager Vickerman explained the applicant is back with an amended plan, noting this matter was previously reviewed by the Council in December. He explained the applicant was seeking planned unit development concept stage plan approval for a 120-unit residential single-family development on 40 acres of land. He indicated the development would consist of 75 detached lots and 45 townhomes. The proposed lot widths were discussed. He stated this proposal was in the TH610 master plan area and was generally west of the recently approved Evanswood development. The location of the T-zone was reviewed and it was noted over 75% of the T-zone would be retained along with nine acres of wetlands. Staff commented further on how the development was amended from December, noting the flexibility that was being requested and reported the Planning Commission recommended approval with conditions. Councilmember Barnett asked what the property was zoned. Maple Grove City Council minutes February 21, 2023 Page 12 Planning Manager Vickerman stated the property was zoned Residential Agricultural and was guided low to medium density residential which would allow for one to four units per acre. Councilmember Janigo questioned how much each of these homes would retail for. Planning Manager Vickerman deferred this question to the applicant. Councilmember Johnson inquired what the small lot homes would look like. Planning Manager Vickerman reviewed sample elevations of the homes with the Council. He reported the details would be fine-tuned when the development stage plan came back to the city. Councilmember Johnson asked if staff had spoken with the property owner regarding the access easement. Planning Manager Vickerman indicated the property owner was willing to work with the city and the developer on the access easement. Councilmember Hanson questioned if the road will go through to service this development. Planning Manager Vickerman explained this was one of the conditions for approval. He stated the southwest portion of the development was relying on this. Further discussion ensued regarding how the property would be accessed. Mayor Steffenson asked if the Fire Department supported the proposed design of this development. Planning Manager Vickerman reported staff has had conversations with the Fire Department regarding this development and they understand the single access was a temporary situation. Mayor Steffenson inquired if the KOA T-zone was being impacted by this development. Planning Manager Vickerman explained this project would not impact the KOA property. Councilmember Janigo noted she has heard from several residents raising questions about the schools. She stated she understood it would take the school district several years to construct the elementary school and asked where children in this neighborhood would be bussed. Planning Manager Vickerman stated in his conversations with the school district, Maple Grove City Council minutes February 21, 2023 Page 13 he understood the children in this area would attend Fernbrook Elementary School. He estimated a school in this area would be open in three years. Councilmember Barnett asked how many 65-foot wide lots were within the development. Planning Manager Vickerman explained the development had 48 65-foot wide lots. Councilmember Barnett discussed how the City Council had fought with the Evanswood developer when they proposed 45 and 55-foot wide lots. She questioned why staff brought forward a development that now had similar sized lots. Planning Manager Vickerman reported staff was recommending approval of this development with the smaller lot sizes was related to the preservation of the T-zone and wetlands. Councilmember Barnett asked how much of the tree area could be developed. Planning Manager Vickerman explained the developer would be preserving 75% of the T-zone and was only required to preserve 50% without receiving a penalty. He reported the master plan for this area showed preservation of the T-zone which would require flexibility with the lot sizes. Councilmember Barnett stated she was concerned with the small lot sizes and did not support this recommendation. Councilmember Janigo reported she was happy a high percentage of the trees would be preserved. She indicated this was a special area of the city and she believed residents wanted this area preserved. Councilmember Johnson questioned if the T-zone would become a city park that would enrich the community. Planning Manager Vickerman stated the intent would be to have a paved trail system through the T-zone for residents to enjoy. Paul Tabone, Lennar representative, thanked staff for all of their assistance on this project. He discussed how he was working to preserve the T-zone. He commented on how the density of the project flowed through the site, noting the more- dense area would abut County Road 101. He reported the small lot homes would range from 45 to 55-foot wide lots. He Maple Grove City Council minutes February 21, 2023 Page 14 discussed how well small lot products were doing in the current housing market. He discussed the price range for the small lot noting they would start at $400,000. He thanked the Council for considering his request. Mayor Steffenson asked what the homes on the northeast portion of the development would cost. Mr. Tabone estimated these homes would be $500,000 to $600,000 depending on the options. Councilmember Hanson inquired if this development would have an HOA. Mr. Tabone stated the townhomes would have to have an HOA and noted the single family detached homes would not have an HOA. Mayor Steffenson recommended the developer clearly identify snow storage areas for the smaller lot neighborhoods. Councilmember Johnson asked how much the townhomes would cost. Mr. Tabone anticipated the townhomes would start at $400,000. Further discussion ensued regarding the differences in townhomes and small lot single family detached homes. Councilmember Johnson stated she was concerned about where snow would be stored on the townhome and small lots. She inquired if the city would move snow to a specific spot or would plows just move through the streets. Public Works Director/City Engineer Ashfeld explained the standard practice was to plow by the street and homeowners would have to clear the end of their driveways. He commented further on how the city has to work to clear cul de sacs. Councilmember Barnett questioned if the development would have sidewalks. Mr. Tabone reported sidewalks would be added in the final plans on both sides of the streets. Jim Hou, KOA Campground owner, introduced himself to the Council noting his family has owned the KOA property for the past 39 years. He stated he was concerned with the location of the townhome area and the traffic that would be generated by the townhomes. He suggested the townhomes be located to the north. He requested that the home sites not be located too Maple Grove City Council minutes February 21, 2023 Page 15 closely to the property line either. He asked that the wetlands not be impacted by the proposed development. Councilmember Barnett asked how close the townhomes were from the property line. Planning Manager Vickerman stated the townhomes had to be at least 30 feet from the property line. He estimated the townhome buildings would be 50 feet from the property line. Mr. Hou discussed the natural barrier of trees that were in place between his property and the proposed development. Councilmember Hanson inquired if screening would be required by the applicant in this area. Planning Manager Vickerman commented screening was proposed at the temporary turn around. Councilmember Johnson questioned what type of screening Mr. Hou would like to have in place. Mr. Hou stated he would like to see a fence installed or dense fast-growing vegetation. Councilmember Janigo asked if the Arbor Committee has reviewed this case. Planning Manager Vickerman indicated the Arbor Committee has reviewed this plan at a concept level. Councilmember Johnson stated she had concerns with the proposed lots sizes. She understood the T-zone was being preserved, but she had concerns with how 45-foot wide lots would look long term. She believed the city could do better than 45-foot wide lots. Councilmember Barnett stated she was not anti-tree and she wanted to see them saved where possible, but she also valued the land. She questioned if this was the best use for this land. She indicated the city had ordinances in place that states lots should be 80 feet wide. She commented on how hard the Council worked to get the Evanswood project up to 65-foot wide lots and noted she voted against the Rush Hollow project because the lots were too small. She believed the 45-foot wide lots would not age well. She understood compromises would have to be made for this project, but she did not believe this had to involve 45-foot wide lots. She feared that the townhouses would become rentals that would not age well either. Maple Grove City Council minutes February 21, 2023 Page 16 Councilmember Hanson indicated her thoughts on the smaller lot sizes was that they would preserve the T-zone and would provide a more affordable housing product than if the lot sizes were increased. For this reason, she was in favor of the development. Councilmember Janigo agreed with Councilmember Hanson. She indicated her only concern was with the fact the townhouses would come in at the same price as the 45-foot wide single-family lot homes. Mayor Steffenson asked if the Council had to take action on this item at this meeting. City Attorney Templin reported the deadline on this item was February 28. Planning Manager Vickerman explained the applicant had extended the deadline to March 15, allowing a resolution to come back on March 6. Mayor Steffenson commented there was an understanding the city pushed hard for changes within the Evanswood development. He understood the developer would be saving trees within this development, but this came with a large number of small lots, which has not been allowed in this area of Maple Grove. He believed this small of lot has only been allowed in a senior oriented development. He understood this was a difficult lot to develop because of the trees and wetlands. He stated he was not particularly in favor of the 45 and 55-foot lots. He asked what the developer would like to do at this time. Mr. Tabone indicated he was not understanding what the Council wants at this point. He questioned if these were association-maintained lots if this would make a difference. Mayor Steffenson explained this would not make a difference because the lots would remain 45 to 55 feet wide. Mr. Tabone stated he was told in November and December to pursue something other than townhomes which led him to bring back a small lot product that was not age targeted. He noted that over half of the single family detached home sites were over 65 feet wide. He discussed how other communities were allowing smaller lots sizes in order to create attainable housing. He stated he could look into other options to see what Maple Grove City Council minutes February 21, 2023 Page 17 the retail price would be for the townhomes, but noted this was dependent upon construction prices. He indicated he did not want the Council to deny this project, but stated he was uncertain where to go from here. He commented further on how popular the small lot products were in other communities. Councilmember Hanson recalled the Council had asked for a small lot product instead of all townhomes. She stated she appreciated the housing variety being offered by the developer. She anticipated the smaller yards would be attractive to the homeowners as well. Mayor Steffenson commented the Council has two new members now since this project was previously discussed. He suggested the nine 55 foot lots be replaced with seven 65-foot lots. Mr. Tabone asked if the Council would like to see more of the T-zone lost in order to create more 65-foot wide lots. Councilmember Janigo and Councilmember Hanson stated this would not be their preference. Mayor Steffenson did not anticipate a large number of lots could be added if more trees were taken down given the fact they were surrounded by wetlands. He reiterated that he would like to see the 55 foot lots removed and have them replaced with 65-foot wide lots and that the 45-foot wide lots remain the same. Mr. Tabone stated he could support this change. Mayor Steffenson indicated he could support this development with this change. Motion by Mayor Steffenson, seconded by Councilmember Hanson, to direct the city attorney to draft a resolution approving the Bella Woods planned unit development concept stage plan changing the 55-foot wide lots to 65-foot wide lots subject to: 1.
