PUBLIC HEARINGS Chair Rotty opened all public hearings. a)Amendment to Section 11-4-2 (D) of the Subdivision Ordinance Regarding Private Streets—Continued Staff has recommended that this public hearing be continued to the August 10,2021 Regular Planning Commission Meeting.MOTION by Franceschelli,second by Lehto to continue the public hearing to August 10, 2021.APIF,MOTION CARRIED. b) Conditional Use Permit for a Class III Restaurant within the B-2 Zoning District- Jonathan Rud- 310 3rd Street Planning Manager Wippler reviewed the conditional use permit for 310 Third Street.The property is zoned B-2 (Downtown Business) and a class III restaurant is allowed as a conditional use.The applicant Mr.Rud currently owns a restaurant in Minneapolis called Berry Sweet Kitchen.The plan for the restaurant at 310 Third is a fast-casual style.The restaurant will serve breakfast,lunch and dinner as well as provide beer,wine and cocktails. As outlined in City Code,the conditional use permit shall be approved if it is found to meet six criteria.Planning Manager Wippler outlined how this conditional use meets all six criteria and recommends the action of approving the conditional use permit allowing the class III restaurant in the B-2 district at 310 Third Street contingent upon obtaining all necessary building and fire permits,obtaining a liquor license and obtaining a sign permit for any exterior signage to be placed on the building for the proposed use. Chair Rotty asked if the applicant or representative of Mr.Rud was present for the meeting. The applicant was not present.Chair Rotty opened up the room for questions and comments regarding the application. Mr.Gavyn Hobbs,son of Mr.Steve Hobbs,owner of Farmington Bakery, 212 Oak Street, asked what the proposed hours are for the restaurant.He works many afternoons at the bakery and most afternoons the Third Street on-street parking is full.City staff stated they plan to serve breakfast,lunch and dinner,so it will follow typical restaurant hours.Chair Rotty stated that there is the Second Street public parking lot adjacent to the proposed restaurant which the patrons of the restaurant should utilize.As far as hours,since the applicant is not present,the Commission and the public are unable to get that answer tonight. Mr.Steve Hobbs,owner of Farmington Bakery, 212 Oak Street had questions directed towards the applicant who was not present. Mr.Steve Hobbs stated that they are currently purchasing the building next to 212 Oak Street to create a similar open concept where people can sit down to enjoy their coffee or treat from the Farmington Bakery.Mr.Steve Hobbs raised concerns because the restaurant being reviewed tonight was described as more of an al a carte,grab and go option rather than a sit-down full breakfast restaurant as is currently displayed on their Minneapolis location website. Chair Rotty said the Commission's role is not to limit competition.Mr.Steve Hobbs stated he was hoping to get some answers from the applicant. Commissioner Franceschelli stated he does not see any issues.Commissioner Tesky supports this proposed conditional use.She believes it would be a good draw to downtown and help activate additional traffic during the day.Commissioner Windschitl asked about the liquor license process and if it fairly easy to obtain.Planning Manager Wippler stated it is not onerous to obtain.Commissioner Lehto stated she did not have any additional comments.Chair Rotty said it is a reasonable addition.The building has had a restaurant in there previously,so he supports it and recommends that the Commission approves it.Mr. William Pelach,315 Spruce Street,stated that there have been other restaurants in there before. MOTION by Tesky,second by Windschitl,to close the public hearing.APIF,MOTION CARRIED.MOTION by Franceschelli,second by Lehto to approve the conditional use permit to allow for a class III restaurant located in the B-2 (Downtown Business)zoning district located at 310 Third Street following three contingencies.MOTION CARRIED. c) Preliminary Plat and PUD-River's Edge Planning Manager Wippler outlined that Hunter Homes,LLC has submitted applications for preliminary plat and planned unit development for the River's Edge development.This property is south of Fire Station#1 on Denmark Avenue and west of Boeckman Middle School.The property is 75.8 acres in size.The existing use is cultivated farmland as well as floodplain and open space.The site is encumbered with four natural gas pipelines that travel north and south through the center of the property. As shown in the preliminary plat,the developer is proposing 276 townhome lots.The density as proposed is 6.7 units/acre and the property is zoned R-3 (medium density residential) and allows for 6-12 units/acre.The preliminary plat includes 57 outlots.Two accesses are shown. One off of Denamrk Avenue and one off of 220th Street W.The access off of 220th Street W does not meet the County's spacing guidelines.The County will allow it with the understanding that this access will likely become a restricted access (right-in, right-out) in the future when development occurs on the adjacent property to the west. There are three public streets proposed with this preliminary plat.The remaining drives identified on the preliminary plat will be private streets contained within outlots.The current preliminary plat shows the width of the private streets being 24 feet.City standards require a minimum 26-foot-wide roadway for private streets.A condition of approval will be to modify the widths of the private streets to meet the city standard of 26 feet in width. This property is zoned R-3 which currently does not allow for private streets.Staff will be Page 2 proposing to amend the city code to allow private streets within the R-3 zoning district. Approval of a final plat cannot take place until after this amendment is approved by the City Council. Sidewalks are shown on the south side of the public streets and a trail will need to be provided along 2201h Street W,Denmark Avenue and the south side of the fire station.This will be a condition of approval for the preliminary plat.The County's Plat Commission reviewed this preliminary plat and determined that additional right-of-way will be required for Denmark Avenue and 220th Street W.This development is proposed as a PUD due to the use of private streets and a deviation to the side yard setback requirement.The developer is proposing a 15-foot side yard setback on a corner lot when city code currently requires 25 feet. Planning Manager Wippler outlined that the developer has informed city staff that the final plat will show 259 units rather than the current 276.City staff is comfortable having these changes made with the final plat since the overall layout of the preliminary plat is not substantially modified. Chair Rotty asked if the increase in private street width modifies anything on the plat. Planning Manager Wippler stated that the outlots are already larger than 26 feet,so they should fit within the outlots shown.Staff recommends approval of the preliminary plat and forward that recommendation to the City Council contingent upon increasing private street widths to 26 feet,modifying the plan to include an 8-foot trail along 220th Street W,Demark Avenue and the south side of the fire station and modify the plat to show additional right-of- way required by Dakota County for Denmark Avenue and 220th Street W.Planning Manager Wippler added a fourth contingency which is satisfaction of all city comments.Kurt Manley, the developer of River's Edge,added that the reduction of the units came from the request of the builder.Providing lower unit buildings will add additional aesthetics to the project and increase greenspace. Commissioner Franceschelli stated that the north side is mostly a floodplain.Is the area sufficient enough to handle any stormwater runoff or flooding?Planning Manager Wippler stated that through the storm water ponds proposed and the storm water management report,it meets all of the requirements to handle it.Chair Rotty clarified that the entrance to the development off of Denmark Avenue will align with Boeckman Middle School.The intersection will be a full intersection including turn lanes. Dwight Bjerke,922 Westwood Court,asked if the speed limit will be reduced on Denmark Avenue.He is in favor of having the speed limit reduced if possible.Planning Manager stated that the county would dictate what the speed limit is.Mr.Bjerke asked how tall the units will be.Mr.Manley said they are selling the project to a builder so they only have a blueprint.He assumes it will be slab on grade and two story,but more details will be available through the builder. Commissioner Tesky said she appreciated the reduction of buildings.Commissioner Windschitl mentioned the concern of traffic,especially with the middle school location. Planning Manager Wippler mentioned that the school district will bus the kids from that development across Denmark Avenue due to the speed of the road.Commissioner Lehto appreciates the comments regarding the speed limit.Commissioner Franceschelli thinks this will be an enhancement to the community.All of his other questions and concerns were answered.Chair Rotty said this is the type of housing the community has been requesting for years.Developing this property shouldn't be a surprise since MUSA was approved 20 Page 3 years ago.He asked about private street timeline ordinance. Planning Manager Wippler plans on having the ordinance review to the Planning Commission in August and it will go to the City Council the following week.The final plat would be ready after that. Chair Rotty emphasized that city staff should further conversations regarding the speed limit of Denmark Avenue.David Kitowski, 317 Hickory Street,asked what the price of these units will be.Chair Rotty asked for answers to all of these questions for final plat review and approval.Mr.Manley said renderings will be available for the final plat. MOTION by Franceschelli,second by Tesky,to close the public hearing.APIF,MOTION CARRIED.MOTION by Lehto,second by Windschitl,to recommend approval for the Preliminary Plat and PUD for River's Edge Development with four contingencies as outlined by city staff.APIF,MOTION CARRIED. 4. DISCUSSION a) Fairhill Estate at North Creek Sth Addition Final Plat M/I Homes is proposing to plat 13 single-family lots within the Fairhill Estate at North Creek 5th Addition.The 13 lots are located towards the southeast corner of the development.The final plat contains one outlot which will be future platted lots.Two contingencies exist with the final plat.Those are satisfaction of all engineering comments related to the plans for grading and utilities as well as an execution of a Development Contract with all fees and costs paid. Commissioner Windschitl,Lehto,Franceschelli and Tesky had no questions. MOTION by Franceschelli,second by Tesky,to approve Fairhill Estate at North Creek 5th Addition Final Plat with two contingencies and forward that recommendation to the City Council. b)Vita Attiva at South Creek Final Plat and Planned Unit Development CC Vita Attiva,LLC has submitted an application for final plat and planned unit development for Vita Attiva at South Creek.The development is located south of County Road 50 and southwest of the Vermillion River Crossings development.The final plat consists of 35 single-family lots and two lots for 8-unit multi-family structures.This is a part of the overall preliminary plat that was approved by the Planning Commission on May 25,2021 and the City Council on June 7,2021. The final plat is scheduled to be reviewed by the Dakota County Plat Commission on July 21, 2021.Comments related to the greenway and County Road 50 connection are expected after this date.The comments should be reviewed and addressed prior to City Council review of final plat.City staff recommends approval of the Vita Attiva at South Creek final plat and PUD Agreement contingent upon the following: 1. A roadway easement shall be obtained from the JMA Devney Family LLP for the portion of Pilot Knob Road that extends onto their property and record this easement with this final plat. 2. The satisfaction of all city comments related to the construction plans for grading and utilities. 3. A Development Contract between the applicant and City of Farmington shall be executed and security fees and costs shall be required. 4. Execution of the Planned Unit Development Agreement. Page 4 S. Address comments received from Dakota County prior to City Council review and approval of final plat. John Anderson,representative of CC Vita Attiva,LLC added that they had a grading pre- construction meeting and reviewed changes due to the Peterson Family owning some of the outlots.They want to get this land dedicated as right-of-way now rather than as a part of the second or third addition.CC Vita Attiva,LLC is also purchasing land and dedicating easements for future Pilot Knob Road.All of the right-of-way for Pilot Knob Road will be there.Construction will begin this year. Commissioner Lehto asked about pre-sales and if the HOA has been established.The HOA establishment is in progress,but not finalized.She also asked if the city has any say since this development is 55+and she wants to be cautious of fair housing laws.Planning Manager Wippler said the city can review them,but we don't have a say since it is a private agreement between the developer and property owner.Mr.Anderson said they are following state statute. Commissioner Franceschelli was concerned about not having a secondary entrance to the development,but with Pilot Knob Road and Spruce Street being platted now,they have met the concerns. Commissioner Tesky hopes this is a key development to unlock growth potential in this area.Commissioner Windschitl is impressed with the changes made to the development since the Commission's first review of it.Chair Rotty asked about the County review.Planning Manager Wippler doesn't anticipate any significant changes to the overall layout with their review. MOTION by Franceschelli,second by Tesky,to approve Vita Attiva at South Creek Final Plat and Planned Unit Development with five contingencies and forward that recommendation to the City Council. S.

DISCUSSION The attached ordinance that is being proposed amends the city's subdivision code to only allow private streets within the R-3 (Medium Density Residential) zoning district. This is the district where the types of development,typically townhomes, utilize private streets. Currently the code allows private streets only within the R-2, R-T and R-D zones. Another change that is proposed with this amendment is limiting the maximum length of a dead-end private to 500 feet and requiring that a turnaround be provided at the far end of the street that is of an acceptable size and design to the city. Any development that proposes private streets would have to be approved as part of a Planned Unit Development and all private streets would have to be located within outlots owned and maintained by a homeowners'association. These are existing requirements that will remain in place. ACTION REQUESTED Review the attached ordinance amendment and if found acceptable forward a recommendation of approval to the City Council.

There will be a total of 5 employees, this includes a teacher in each of the four proposed classrooms. The hours of operation are proposed to be from 6:30 am-5:30 pm Monday thru Friday. The applicant is proposing to fence in an area on the north side of the building(see attached site plan) next to the once outdoor fenced area for the Dog House Kennel for a play area. The play area would consist of approximately 2,500 square feet in area. The children would utilize the sidewalk in front of the building to access the play area. The play area is adjacent to the parking lot and drive aisle that goes behind the retail building. Bollards have been required on other similar CUP's for play areas and should be considered for this location. The proposed daycare location is within the B-1 (Highway Business) Zoning District and is subject to the City's off-street parking requirements. Section 10-6-4 of the city code outlines the off-street parking requirements based on use. These requirements are enforced when a new use is established or an existing use is enlarged on a property. Commercial child daycare centers are not specifically identified in the parking standards. Off-street parking will be accommodated by the existing on-site parking lot. There are approximately 197 off-street parking stalls found on site. This is an adequate amount of parking to accommodate the proposed use. The City Code provides criteria that must be met in order for the Planning Commission to approve a Conditional Use Permit. Those criteria are as follows: 1. The proposed use conforms to the district permitted and conditional use provisions and all general regulations of this title. A Commercial Child Daycare Center is a conditional use in the B-1 Zoning District. 2. The proposed use shall not involve any element or cause any conditions that may be dangerous, injurious or noxious to any other property or persons and shall comply with the applicable performance standards. The proposed location of the play area may create a dangerous situation by having the play area adjacent to the existing parking lot and drive aisle. 3. The proposed use shall be constructed, designed, sited, oriented and landscaped to produce a harmonious relationship of buildings and grounds to adjacent buildings and properties. The proposed use will occupy a portion of an existing building. Therefore, this requirement is non applicable in this instance. 4. The proposed use shall produce a total visual impression and environment which is consistent with the environment of the neighborhood. Again, the proposed use is to occupy a portion of an existing building. The use will not affect the visual impression and environment of the retail neighborhood. 5. The proposed use shall organize vehicular access and parking to minimize traffic congestion in the neighborhood. The off-street parking standards do not identify a requirement for a commercial child daycare center. The use will utilize the existing parking lot servicing the site. 6. The proposed use shall preserve the objectives of this title and shall be consistent with the comprehensive plan. The proposed use is consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan. ACTION REQUESTED Approve the Conditional Use Permit subject to the following conditions: 1. A sign permit application shall be required for any signage to be placed on site. 2. The applicant obtaining all necessary building permits for the proposed use. 3. Provide safety measures to utilize play area. 4. A layout of the play area shall be submitted to the City for filing.

The updates affect Title 10 (Zoning) of the City Code, including Chapter 5 (Districts and District Provisions), Chapter 6 (Performance Standards), and Chapter 2 (Definitions). These portions of the Zoning Code are proposed to be updated to align with updates within the 2040 Comprehensive Plan, which was adopted in 2019, as well as other planning documents that have been recently approved (e.g. Downtown Redevelopment Plan and the Trunk Highway 3 Corridor Small Area Plan). MN state law requires that a city's Zoning Code be consistent with its Comprehensive Plan.This memorandum is intended to provide a brief summary of the key updates to help you understand the big picture of this project and help draw your attention to the most significant updates. DISCUSSION Summary of Key Updates Restructuring of Zoning Districts I n the previous 2030 Comprehensive Plan,the Land Use Plan chapter used the City's zoning districts as the land use categories. As a best practice, land use categories are typically higher level and more general than zoning districts. A key update within the 2040 Comprehensive Plan was to establish new land use categories. As a result,the City's zoning districts are in need of significant restructuring to align with 2040 Comprehensive Plan's land use categories. As part of restructuring the zoning districts,the current zoning districts were evaluated and opportunities were identified for consolidating, simplifying, and eliminating districts where appropriate.The key updates to zoning districts include the following: 1. Downtown residential districts (R-D and R-T) consolidated into a single R-D district; 2. R-5 district renamed to R-4, since the previous R-4 district had been eliminated in the past; 3. Business districts consolidated by eliminating the B-4 district and consolidating it into other appropriate districts; 4. Mixed use districts (MU and MUCK) consolidated into a single MUCR district; 5. 1 ndustrial districts (1-1 and I P) consolidated into a single I district; 6. B/CF district converted to MUCI district to align with new MUCI land use category in the Comprehensive Plan; 7. Spruce Street Commercial (SSC) district transitioned to Spruce Street Mixed Use(SSMU) district to reflect the mix of uses allowed and being developed in that district; Planned Unit,Development(PUD) Overlay District The proposed updates to the PUD are intended to simplify and condense this overlay district for easier interpretation and implementation by the development community and city staff. These changes help to clarify and streamline the Planned Unit Development process and make it more criteria based. Design Standards in Chapter 6 The three sets of design standards located in Chapter 6 have been relocated to Chapter 5 as part of the appropriate base or overlay zoning district as follows: 1. 1 ndustrial Park Design Standards (10-6-20)—added to the proposed consolidated I ndustrial district (10-5-17); 2. Spruce Street Commercial, Mixed Use, and Business/Flex Design Standards (10-6-21)—converted into the new SS-O Spruce Street Overlay District(10-5-24); 3. Downtown Commercial Overlay District Design Standards (10-6-28)—relocated to Chapter 5 with the other overlay districts. Some of these design standards related to screening and landscaping are general standards,so have been relocated to either the Screening(10-6-9) or Landscaping(10-6-10)sections in Chapter 6. As a result of relocating these design standards, sections 10-6-20, 10-6-21, and 10-6-28 can be eliminated from the Zoning Code. Downtown Redevelopment Plan As recommended by the Downtown Redevelopment Plan,the following updates are proposed: 1. Changes to the DC-0 Downtown Commercial Overlay District standards; 2. Expanded the boundary of the overlay district; 3. Specific rezoning of parcels in the downtown area. Trunk Highway 3 Corridor Small Area Plan As recommended by the Trunk Highway 3 Corridor Small Area Plan,the following updates are proposed: 1. Created the new HW3-0 Highway 3 Overlay District; 2. Added the overlay district to the Zoning Map; 3. Specific rezoning of parcels in the Highway 3 corridor. Off-Street Parking Standards The primary focus was reviewing and updating the Required Parking Spaces table, Shore Land Management Regulations This section of has been updated to align the City's shore land management regulations with the Minnesota DNR model ordinance.The most substantive changes to point out with this proposed amendment is in regards to Special Provisions for Planned Unit Developments (PUDs). Zoning Map The proposed changes to the Zoning Map shown are primarily based on guidance from the 2040 Comprehensive Plan's Future Land Use Map,the Downtown Redevelopment Plan, and the Trunk Highway 3 Corridor Small Area Plan.The two new overlay districts—SS-0 and H W3-0—are shown on this map.The DC-O overlay district is shown as a change because the boundary of the district is being expanded east to 5th Street.

Specifications: The minimum planting sizes for all plant material is the following: (a) Evergreen trees: Six feet (6') in height as specified by the American Association Of-of Nurserymen, except for the true dwarf varieties. (b) Ground cover plants: Crowns, plugs, containers, in a number as appropriate by species to provide fifty percent (50%) surface coverage after one growing season. The species must provide seventy five percent (75%)to one hundred percent (100%) surface coverage after two (2) growing seasons. (c) Medium and large deciduous shade trees: Two inch (2") caliper, as measured six inches (6") above the ground as specified by the American Association Of Nurserymen. Chapter 6 PERFORMANCE STANDARDS 10-6-10 LANDSCAPING: (d) Shrubs (deciduous and evergreen, including spreader and globe tree forms): Twelve inches (12") to eighteen inches (18") in height. (e) Small deciduous or ornamental trees: Minimum caliper of one and one-half inches (11/2") as specified by the American Association Of-of Nurserymen, except for the true dwarf varieties. (f) Sod: As required to provide coverage and soil stabilization. Sod is required in the street side yard or front yard and seeding may be planted within other areas of the yard. (g) Turf and native grass: Seeding as appropriate to provide complete coverage within the first growing season. 2. Soil Specifications: The landscape plan must contain results of a water permeability test. A water permeability test is required in order to determine the type of soil the plant material is planted in. This requires a sharp shooter spade dug eighteen inches (18") into the ground. Fill the hole with water and if after eighteen (18) hours the hole still retains the water, the soil is determined to be too poor for planting. 3. Poor Soil Remedies: If the soil is determined to be too poor for planting, the following two (2) possible remedies are recommended. The first remedy is to install a ten foot (10') wide raised planting bed in order to provide acceptable planting soil. The height of the bed is the amount of soil it takes to cover the root ball of the plant to a level of two inches (2") above the ball. The bed must be covered with four inches (4") of mulch to provide for moisture retention. A second remedy is to excavate the soil to the depth of the root ball, allowing the root ball to rest on the clay soil. Excavate an area five (5) times the size of the root ball and replace the soil with quality planting soil. This will allow the tree roots to spread into adequate soil and provide an established root system before spreading into the poorer soil. (F) Lot Frontage Tree And--and Boulevard Tree Species: 1. Prohibited Species: (a) In no cases shall prohibited species be planted as boulevard trees. Prohibited species are defined as the following trees: (1) Ash species (2) Box elder (3) Evergreens (4) Ginkgo (female only) (5) Nondisease resistant elm species (6) Nonhybrid cottonwood species (7) Silver maple (b) In no cases shall prohibited species be planted as lot frontage trees.

(b) Replacement Of-of Trees: (1) The city shall be responsible for removing existing boulevard trees that have died, are dying, or sustained severe damage. The city shall replace trees on designated boulevard tree routes. (2) The owner of any lot of record may, at his or her own risk, replace a dead boulevard tree in the front yard of the home outside of side yard drainage and utility easements at eight feet (8') from the property line in front yard drainage and utility easements. (c) Trimming Requirements: The city will be responsible for all trimming of boulevard trees. As these trees are on city property, and are essentially and legally city property, they must be maintained by the city to ensure that they are properly trimmed for structural integrity and disease control measures. (d) Responsibility Fer-for Maintenance Of-of Trees: (1) The city will inspect and trim boulevard trees. (2) The homeowner shall be responsible for trimming lot frontage trees or any other trees on private property. (e) Height Standards: Trimming height standards must maintain a ten foot (10') clearance above any walkway and fourteen feet (14') above the roadway. These requirements provide clearance for walkers, snow removal equipment and solid waste vehicles. (f) Brush F-Fen,-from Pruning: The city will not collect any brush resulting from pruning or removal of trees or brush from private property. (g) Emergency Collection Of-of Brush: An emergency brush situation would occur when the public safety officer declares one to exist. Then and only then will the city collect brush generated by residents on private property, as a onetime emergency service. Chapter 6 PERFORMANCE STANDARDS 10-6-10 LANDSCAPING: (H) Tree Topping: 1. It shall be unlawful as a normal practice for any person to top any street tree, park tree or other tree on public property except as allowed in section 8-6-10 of this code. "Topping" is defined as the severe cutting back of limbs to stubs larger than three inches (3") in diameter within the tree's crown to such a degree so as to remove the normal canopy and disfigure the tree. Trees severely damaged by storms or other causes, or certain trees under utility wires or other obstructions where other pruning practices are impractical may be exempted from this subsection at the determination of the natural resources division. (1) Pruning, Corner Clearance: 1. Prune branches so that such branches shall not obstruct the view of any street intersection and so that there shall be a clear space of ten feet (10') above the surface of the street or sidewalk. Said owners shall remove all dead, diseased or dangerous trees, or broken or decayed limbs that constitute a menace to the safety of the public. The city shall have the right to prune any tree or shrub on private property when it interferes with the proper spread of light along the street from a streetlight or interferes with visibility of any traffic control device or sign. I (J) Dead Or-or Diseased Tree Removal On-on Private Property: 1. The city shall have the right to cause the removal of any dead or diseased trees on private property within the city in accordance with title 7, chapter 6 of this code when such trees constitute a hazard to life and property, or harbor insects or disease which constitute a potential threat to other trees in the city. The natural resources division will notify, in writing, the owners of such trees. Removal shall be done by said owners at their own expense within sixty (60) days after the date of service of notice. In the event of failure of owners to comply with such provisions, the city shall have the authority to remove such trees and charge the cost of removal on the owners' property tax notices. (K) Removal Of-of Stumps: 1. All stumps of street and park trees shall be removed below the surface of the ground so that the top of the stump shall not project above the surface of the ground. (L) Tree Protection min Construction Zones.- 1 ones:1. Specifications: Existing trees and vegetation that are to be saved shall be protected from all construction activities, including earthwork operations, movement and storage of equipment, and materials and dumping of toxic materials. A minimum protection zone shall be established by the installation of temporary fencing around existing vegetation to be preserved, placing the fencing no closer to the trees than their drip lines, and this information shown and noted on the plans. Protective fencing shall be maintained throughout the construction period. Alternative protection measures may be approved by the zoning officer. Construction details which indicate special techniques that will be employed to save trees are required for all existing trees for which credit is desired. Existing trees will be counted as fulfilling the landscaping requirements of this section. Trees counted shall be all existing deciduous trees with a trunk size of four inches (4") or larger, measured at four and one-half feet (41/2') above the ground and all existing evergreen trees measuring five (5) vertical feet or more in height. Chapter 6 PERFORMANCE STANDARDS 10-6-10 LANDSCAPING: 2. Replacement: If any of the trees required to be retained or trees planted as part of the landscaping plan should die within a period of two (2) years after completion of the activities associated with construction of the site, the owner of the property must replace the trees within six (6) months at a ratio of one to one (1:1) with an approved tree having a minimum diameter of two inches (2") measured at a point six inches (6") above the natural grade. Shrubbery or other plantings which die within two (2) years of completion of the activities shall be replaced in kind within six (6) months. (M) Overhead Utility Line Planting Requirements: 1. Location: Overhead utility lines must be located on the landscape plan. In order to allow for maintenance of the lines, if an overhead utility line is located in the rear yard along the property line, the buffer plantings required in the buffer yard shall be installed following guidelines set below. If the overhead utility line is located in the rear yard, but five feet (6) to ten feet (10') from the property line, the screening and buffer yard plantings shall be installed along the property line with city staff approval. 2. Species: The following guidelines must be considered when planting near overhead utility lines. Considerations should be given to soil conditions, drainage, exposure, growth patterns, and local experience when selecting plant materials. Type Height Where Planted Shrubs Maximum of 15 feet Under overhead lines Small trees Over 15 feet, but under At least 15 feet from overhead utility 30 feet lines Medium trees 30 - 70 feet At least 35 feet from overhead utility lines Large trees Over 70 feet At least 45 feet from overhead utility lines (N) Landscape Guarantee: 1. Guarantee: All new plantings shall be guaranteed for two (2) full years from the time planting has been completed. Plants not alive at the end of the guarantee period shall be replaced. 2. Surety: Prior to approval of the landscape plan, the applicant shall submit surety acceptable to the city administrator in the amount of the established costs of complying with the plan. The aforesaid surety shall be provided for guaranteeing completion and compliance with the plan. 3. Completion Or-or Bond: A certificate of occupancy shall not be issued until either the landscaping is completed or a bond has been filed.

When there is a conflict in requirements the more stringent of the requirements shall be applied. (2) Density Determination: Proposed new or expansions to existing planned unit developments in the Shorelland District must be evaluated using the following procedures: A. Identify Density Analysis Tiers. Divide the project parcel into tiers by drawing one of more lines parallel to the ordinary high water level at intervals of 300 feet, proceeding landward B. Calculate Suitable Area for Development. Calculate the suitable area within each tier by excluding all wetlands, bluffs, or land below the ordinary high water level of public waters C. Determine Base Density i. For residential PUDs divide the tier width by the minimum single residential lot width ii. these on thA tpla,Q Rho', developm ante Lot width standards must be met at both the ordinary high water level and at the building line. iii. These standards assume that publicly owned sewer system service is available to the property. D. Determine if the Site can Accommodate Increased Density: Increases to the dwelling unit or dwelling site base densities are allowed up to the maximum density seen in the table below if all design criteria are met as well as the following standards are met: i. Structure setbacks from the ordinary high water level are increased to at least 50 percent greater than the minimum setback; or ii.

Buffer vegetation shall be established and maintained in accordance with the requirements that follow. (b) Buffer Area Vegetation Requirements: Where acceptable natural vegetation exists in buffer areas, the retention of such vegetation in an undisturbed state is required unless approval to replace such vegetation is received. A buffer has acceptable vegetation if it: (1) Has a continuous, dense layer of perennial grasses that has been uncultivated or unbroken for at least five (5) consecutive years; or (2) Has an overstory of trees and/or shrubs that has been uncultivated or unbroken for at least five (5) consecutive years; or Chapter 6 PERFORMANCE STANDARDS 90-6-98 SHORE LANDSHORELAND MANAGEMENT REGULATIONS: (3) Contains a mixture of the plant communities in subsections (E)3(b)(1) and (E)3(b)(2) of this section that has been uncultivated or unbroken for at least five (5) years. (c) Maintenance Of-of Buffer Areas: Buffers shall be staked and protected in the field prior to construction unless the vegetation and the condition of the buffer are considered inadequate. Existing conditions vegetation will be considered unacceptable if: (1) Topography or sparse vegetation tends to channelize the flow of surface water. (2) Some other reason the vegetation is unlikely to retain nutrients and sediment. (d) Requirements For-for Replanting: Where buffer vegetation and conditions are unacceptable, or have been cultivated or otherwise disturbed within ten (10) years of the permit application, or where approval has been obtained to replant, buffers shall be replanted and maintained according to the following standards: (1) Buffers shall be planted with a native seed mix approved by MnDOT, BWSR, NRCS or the Dakota SWCD, with the exception of a onetime planting with an annual nurse or cover crop. Plantings of native forbs and grasses may be substituted for seeding. All substitutions must be approved by the city. Groupings/clusters of native trees and shrubs, of species and at densities appropriate to site conditions, shall also be planted throughout the buffer area. (2) The seed mix and planting shall be broadcast/installed according to MnDOT, BWSR, NRCS or Dakota SWCD specifications. The selected seed mixes and plantings for permanent cover shall be appropriate for the soil site conditions and free of invasive species. (3) Buffer vegetation (both natural and created) shall be protected by erosion and sediment control measures during construction. (4) During the first five (5) full growing seasons, except where the city has determined vegetation establishment is acceptable, the owner or applicant must replant buffer vegetation where the vegetative cover is less than ninety percent (90%). The owner or applicant must assure reseeding or replanting if the buffer changes at any time through human intervention or activities. (5) No fertilizer shall be used in establishing new buffer areas. (6) Applicants may obtain from the city a set of standard seeding and planting specifications for buffer areas, which meet all the city requirements. (e) Buffer Identification: Buffer areas shall be identified by permanent monumentation acceptable to the city. In residential subdivisions, a monument is required for each lot. In other situations, a monument is required for each three hundred feet (300') of wetland edge. Chapter 6 PERFORMANCE STANDARDS 10-6-18 SHORE LANDSHORELAND MANAGEMENT REGULATIONS: (f) Vegetation Clearing Or-or Removal: The clearing and removal of vegetation in the buffer area is prohibited, except for selective clearing and pruning of individual trees that are dead, diseased, noxious weeds, or hazards. Owners are encouraged to leave dead trees and branches in the buffer area, because they are part of the native natural environment and provide necessary habitat to many birds and native wildlife. (g) Dumping 4r-in Buffer Areas: Dumping yard waste in buffer areas, including leaves and grass clippings, is prohibited by this section. (h) Determination Of-of Buffer Areas: All buffer areas are measured from the ordinary high water level as marked in the field. (i) Minimum Buffer Areas: Buffers shall be established adjacent to major waterways as shown and classified on map 1 -Vermillion River watershed attached to the VRWJPO standards, and as described for the various classifications below. (1) Conservation corridor; lower reach (Vermillion River downstream of Biscayne Avenue): One hundred fifty foot (150') average, one hundred foot (100') minimum measured from the edge of the meander belt of the river. (2) Conservation corridor; upper reach (Vermillion River upstream of Biscayne Avenue and South Branch Vermillion River): One hundred fifty foot (150') average, one hundred foot (100') minimum measured from the edge of the meander belt of the river. (3) Aquatic corridor; principal connector: Required buffer width one hundred foot (100') average, sixty five foot (65') minimum measured from the edge of the meander belt of the river. (4) Aquatic corridor; principal connector with trout stream designation: One hundred foot (100'), no averaging, as required by the NPDES general construction permit. (5) Aquatic corridor; tributary connector: Fifty foot (50') average, thirty five foot (36) minimum, plus two feet (2') for every one percent (1%) of slope measured from the edge of the meander belt of the tributary. (6) Water quality corridor: Thirty foot (30') average, twenty foot (20') minimum where there is a flow path for concentrated surface runoff measured from the centerline of the flow path. (j) Buffer Averaging: The city may recommend buffer averaging for buffers in areas designated manage 1, manage 2 or greenway corridors in instances where it will provide resource protection to a valuable adjacent upland habitat, or allow for reasonable use of property, provided that the total buffer area on site contained in the buffer area remains the same. No buffer averaging is allowed for trout stream buffers. (k) Public Trail Exemption: Public trails that are routed through stream buffers for specific interpretive purposes shall be exempted from this requirement. Chapter 6 PERFORMANCE STANDARDS 10-6-18 SHORE LANDSHORELAND MANAGEMENT REGULATIONS: (1) Maximum Width: If the area of the buffer has a preconstruction slope of twelve percent (12%) or greater, the buffer shall be at the maximum width for the applicant's stream classification. The use of a meandering buffer area to maintain a natural appearance is encouraged, but not required in areas of flat topography. (m) Stream Buffer Area Mitigation: Where alteration of a stream buffer area is approved and mitigation is required, mitigation must result in equal or improved buffer function and value. Mitigation plans must address water quality protection and wildlife habitat. The following criteria shall be required for stream buffer area mitigation: (1) Buffer Replacement: Buffers must be required at a one to one (1:1) ratio. The buffer requirement associated with the stream classification will be required for the replacement buffer, unless replacement is occurring adjacent to a stream with a higher classification. In this case, the buffer area requirement for the higher stream classification will apply. (2) Mitigation Goals: Mitigation shall be equal to or shall improve buffer function and value. The function and value will include protection of water quality and provision of wildlife habitat. (3) Wildlife Diversity: Mitigation involving the buffer area shall provide landscaping for nesting, food for wildlife, wildlife cover, and utilize a diversity of native flora (trees, shrubs, grasses, herbaceous plants) to encourage wildlife diversity. (4) Trout Streams: Mitigation in buffer areas along trout streams shall require landscaping that protects trout habitat, such as trees, shrubs, and tall native grasses that shade the stream. (5) Area Of-of Mitigation: Stream buffer mitigation should be undertaken on site. If this is not feasible, mitigation should occur locally within the subwatershed. If this is not possible, mitigation should occur outside the subwatershed, elsewhere in the city. (6) Buffer Plantings: Stream buffer area plantings that are completed for mitigation shall meet the standards for plantings specified in subsection (E)4 of this section. 4. .9hsre LandShoreland Alterations: Alterations of vegetation and topography will be regulated to prevent erosion into public waters, fix nutrients, preserve shore landshoreland aesthetics, preserve historic values, prevent bank slumping, and protect fish and wildlife habitat. (a) Vegetation Alteration: (1) Standards: Removal or alteration of vegetation, except of agricultural uses as regulated in subsection (E)7 of this section is allowed subject to the following standards: A. Intensive vegetation clearing within the shore zone and on steep slopes is prohibited. Chapter 6 PERFORMANCE STANDARDS 10-6-18 SHORE LANDSHORELAND MANAGEMENT REGULATIONS: B. In shore impact zones and on steep slopes, limited clearing of trees and shrubs and cutting, pruning, and trimming of trees is allowed to provide a view to the water from the principal dwelling site and to accommodate the placement of stairways and landings, picnic areas, access paths, livestock watering areas, beach and watercraft access areas, and permitted water oriented accessory structures or facilities, provided that: i. The screening of structures, vehicles, or other facilities as viewed from the water, assuming summer, leaf-on conditions, is not substantially reduced; ii. Existing shading of water surfaces is preserved along rivers; and iii. The above provisions are not applicable to the removal of trees, limbs, or branches that are dead, diseased, or pose safety hazards. (2) Exemption: Vegetation alteration necessary for the construction of structures and sewage treatment systems and the construction of roads and parking areas regulated by subsection (E)5 of this section are exempt from this subsection. (b) Topographic Alterations/Grading Ard-and Filling: (1) Grading and filling and excavations necessary for the construction of structures, sewage treatment systems, and driveways under validly issued construction permits for these facilities do not require the issuance of a separate grading and filling permit. However, the grading and filling standards in this section must be incorporated into the issuance of permits for construction of structures, sewage treatment systems, and driveways. (2) Public roads and parking areas are regulated by subsection (E)5 of this section. (3) Notwithstanding subsections (E)4(b)(1) and (E)4(b)(2) of this section, a grading and filling permit will be required for: A. The movement of more than ten (10) cubic yards of material on steep slopes or within shore or bluff impact zones; and B. The movement of more than fifty (50) cubic yards of material outside of steep slopes and shore and bluff impact zones. Excavations where the intended purpose is connection to a public water, such as boat slips, canals, lagoons, and harbors, must be controlled by local shere-Iandshoreland controls. Permission for excavations may be given only after the commissioner has approved the proposed connection to public waters. Chapter 6 PERFORMANCE STANDARDS 10-6-18 SHORE LANDSHORELAND MANAGEMENT REGULATIONS: (4) Conditions der-for Approval: The following considerations and conditions must be adhered to during the issuance of construction permits, grading and filling permits, conditional use permits, variances and subdivision approvals: A. Grading or filling in any type 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 or 8 wetland must be evaluated to determine how extensively the proposed activity would affect the following functional qualities of the wetland*: i. Sediment and pollutant trapping and retention; ii. Storage of surface runoff to prevent or reduce flood damage; iii. Fish and wildlife habitat; iv. Recreational use; V. Shoreline or bank stabilization; and vi. Noteworthiness, including special qualities such as historic significance, critical habitat for endangered plants and animals, or others. *This evaluation must also include a determination of whether the wetland alteration being proposed requires permits, reviews, or approvals by other local, state, or federal agencies such as a watershed district, the Minnesota department of natural resources, or the United States army corps of engineers. The applicant will be so advised. B. Alterations must be designed and conducted in a manner that ensures only the smallest amount of bare ground is exposed for the shortest time possible; C. Mulches or similar materials must be used, where necessary, for temporary bare soil coverage, and a permanent vegetation cover must be established as soon as possible; D. Methods to minimize soil erosion and to trap sediments before they reach any surface water feature must be used; E. Altered areas must be stabilized to acceptable erosion control standards consistent with the field office technical guides of the local soil and water conservation districts and the United States soil conservation service; F. Fill or excavated material must not be placed in a manner that creates an unstable slope; G. Plans to place fill or excavated material on steep slopes must be reviewed by qualified professionals for continued slope stability and must not create finished slopes of thirty percent (30%) or greater; Chapter 6 PERFORMANCE STANDARDS 90-6-98 SHORE LANDSHORELAND MANAGEMENT REGULATIONS: H. Fill or excavated material must not be placed in bluff impact zones; I. Any alterations below the ordinary high water level of public waters must first be authorized by the commissioner under Minnesota Statutes Annotated, section 105.42; J. Alterations of topography must only be allowed if they are accessory to permitted or conditional uses and do not adversely affect adjacent or nearby properties; K. Placement of natural rock riprap, including associated grading of the shoreline and placement of a filter blanket, is permitted if the finished slope does not exceed three feet (3') horizontal to one foot (1') vertical, the landward extent of the riprap is within ten feet (10') of the ordinary high water level, and the height of the riprap above the ordinary high water level does not exceed three feet (3'). 5. Placement Of-of Roads, Driveways, Arid-and Parking Areas: (a) Design Requirements: Public and private roads and parking areas shall be designed to take advantage of natural vegetation and topography to achieve maximum screening from view from public waters. Applicants shall provide documentation by a qualified engineer establishing that all roads and parking areas are designed and constructed to minimize and control erosion to public waters consistent with the field office technical guides of the local soil and water conservation district, or other applicable technical materials. (b) Setbacks: Roads, driveways, and parking areas must meet structure setbacks and must not be placed within bluff and shore impact zones, when other reasonable and feasible placement alternatives exist. If no alternatives exist, they may be placed within these areas, and must be designed to minimize adverse impacts. (c) Shore Impact Zones: Public and private watercraft access ramps, approach roads, and access related parking areas may be placed within the shore impact zones provided the vegetative screening and erosion control conditions of this subsection are met. For private facilities, the grading and filling provisions of this section must be met. 6. Stormwater Management: (a) Natural Drainageways: When possible, existing natural drainageways, wetland, and vegetated soil surfaces must be used to convey, store, filter, and retain stormwater runoff before discharge to public waters. (b) Reduction O€-of Runoff Volumes: Development must be planned and conducted in a manner that will minimize the extent of disturbed areas, runoff, velocities, erosion potential, and reduce the delay runoff volumes. Disturbed areas must be stabilized and protected as soon as possible and facilities or methods used to retain sediment on the site. Chapter 6 PERFORMANCE STANDARDS 10-6-18 SHORE LANDSHORELAND MANAGEMENT REGULATIONS: (c) Design Criteria: When development density, topographic features, and soil and vegetation conditions are not sufficient to adequately handle stormwater runoff using natural features and vegetation, various types of constructed facilities, such as diversion, settling basins, skimming devices, dikes, waterways, and ponds may be used. Preference must be given to designs using surface drainage, vegetation, and infiltration rather than buried pipes and manmade materials and facilities. (d) Impervious Surface Coverage: Impervious surface coverage of lots must not exceed twenty five percent (25%) of the lot area. (e) Documentation Required: When constructed facilities are used for stormwater management, documentation must be provided by a qualified engineer that they are designed and installed consistent with the field office technical guide of the local soil and water conservation district. (f) Stormwater Outfalls: New constructed stormwater outfalls to public waters must provide for filtering or settling of suspended solids and skimming of surface debris before discharge. 7. Agricultural Use Standards: (a) General Requirements: General cultivation farming, grazing, nurseries, horticulture, truck farming, sod farming, and wild crop harvesting are permitted uses if steep slopes and shore impact zones are maintained in permanent vegetation or operated under an approved conservation plan (resource management systems) consistent with the field office technical guides of the local soil and water conservation districts or the United States soil conservation service, as provided by a qualified engineer or agency. The shore impact zone for parcels with permitted agricultural land uses is equal to a line parallel to and fifty feet (50') from the ordinary high water level. (b) Animal Feedlot Standards: Animal feedlots must meet the following standards: (1) New feedlots must not be located in the shore-landshoreland or watercourses or in bluff impact zones, and must meet a minimum setback of three hundred feet (300') from the ordinary high water level of all public water basins; and Modifications or expansions to existing feedlots that are located within three hundred feet (300') of the ordinary high water level or within a bluff impact zone are allowed if they do not further encroach into the existing ordinary high water level setback or encroach on bluff impact zones. (Ord. 010-629, 10-18-2010) 8. Extractive Use Standards: Extractive uses are conditional uses and must meet the followinq standards: (a) Site Development and Restoration Plan. A Ssite development and restoration plan must be developed, approved, and followed over the course of operation. The Plan must: Chapter 6 PERFORMANCE STANDARDS 10-6-18 SHORE LANDSHORELAND MANAGEMENT REGULATIONS: (1) _Address dust, noise, possible pollutant discharges, hours and duration of operation, and anticipated vegetation and topographic alterations; (2) Identify actions to be taken during operation to mitigate adverse environmental impacts, particularly erosion; and (3) Clearly explain how the site will be rehabilitated after extractive activities end. (s)(b) Setbacks for Processing Machinery. Processing machinery must meet structure setback standards from ordinary high water levels and from bluffs. (F) Non conformities: All legally established nonconformities as of the date of this section may continue, but they will be managed according to applicable state statutes and other regulations of this community for the subjects of alterations and additions, repairs after damage, discontinuance of use and intensification of use. When a nonconforming structure in the shore landshoreland district with less than fifty percent (50%) of the required setback identified in subsection (E)2 of this section from the water is destroyed by fire or other peril to greater than fifty percent (50%) of its estimated market value, as indicated in the records of the county assessor at the time of damage, the structure setback may be increased if practical and reasonable conditions are placed upon a zoning or building permit to mitigate created impacts on the adjacent property or body of water. 1. The following apply to shore landshoreland lots of record in the office of the county recorder on the date of adoption of local shore laradshoreland controls that do not meet the requirements of subsection (E)1 of this section. A municipality shall regulate the use of nonconforming lots of record and the repair, replacement, maintenance, improvement, or expansion of nonconforming uses and structures in shoreIandshoreland areas according to the following: (a) A nonconforming single lot of record located within the shore landshoreland area may be allowed as a building site without variances from lot size requirements, provided that: (1) All structure and septic setback distance requirements can be met; (2) A type 1 sewage treatment system consistent with Minnesota rules, chapter 7080, can be installed or the lot is connected to public sewer; and (3) The impervious surface coverage does not exceed twenty five percent (25%) of the lot. (b) In a group of two (2) or more contiguous lots of record under common ownership, an individual lot must be considered as a separate parcel of land for the purpose of sale or development, if it meets the following requirements: (1) The lots must be at least sixty six percent (66%) of the dimensional standard for lot width and lot size for the shere-landshoreland classification consistent with Minnesota rules, chapter 6120; (2) The lot must be connected to a public sewer, if available, or must be suitable for the installation of a type 1 sewage treatment system Chapter 6 PERFORMANCE STANDARDS 10-6-18 SHORE LANDSHORELAND MANAGEMENT REGULATIONS: consistent with Minnesota rules, chapter 7080, and local government controls; (3) Impervious surface coverage must not exceed twenty five percent (25%) of each lot; and (4) The development of the lot must be consistent with an adopted comprehensive plan. (c) A lot subject to subsection (F)1(b) of this section not meeting the requirements of subsection (F)1(b) of this section must be combined with the one or more contiguous lots so they equal one or more conforming lots as much as possible. (d) Notwithstanding subsection (F)1(b) of this section, contiguous nonconforming lots of record in &here landshoreland areas under common ownership must be able to be sold or purchased individually if each lot contained a habitable residential dwelling at the time the lots came under common ownership and the lots are suitable for, or served by, a sewage treatment system consistent with the requirements of section 115.55 and Minnesota rules, chapter 7080, or connected to a public sewer. (e) In evaluating all variances, zoning and building permit applications, or conditional use requests, the zoning authority shall require the property owner to address, when appropriate, stormwater runoff management, reducing impervious surfaces, increasing setback, restoration of wetlands, vegetative buffers, sewage treatment and water supply capabilities, and other conservation designed actions. (f) A portion of a conforming lot may be separated from an existing parcel as long as the remainder of the existing parcel meets the lot size and sewage treatment requirements of the zoning district for a new lot and the newly created parcel is combined with an adjacent parcel. (Ord. 011-642, 12-19-2011) 2. Additions/Expansions To-to Nonconforming Structures: (a) Structure Additions: All additions or expansions to the outside dimensions of an existing nonconforming structure must meet the setback, height and other requirements of subsection (E) of this section. Any deviation from these requirements must be authorized by a variance. (b) Deck Additions: Deck additions may be allowed without a variance to a structure not meeting the required setback from the ordinary high water level if all of the following criteria and standards are met: (1) The structure existed on the date the structure setbacks were established; (2) A thorough evaluation of the property and structure reveals no reasonable location for a deck meeting or exceeding the existing ordinary high water level setback of the structure; (3) The deck encroachment toward the ordinary high water level does not exceed fifteen percent (15%) of the existing setback of the structure from i Chapter 6 PERFORMANCE STANDARDS 10-6-18 SHORE LANDSHORELAND MANAGEMENT REGULATIONS: the ordinary high water level or does not encroach closer than thirty feet ' (30'), whichever is more restrictive; and (4) The deck is constructed primarily of wood, and is not roofed or screened. 3 (Ord. 010-629, 10-18-2010) 7 f j} { k S 9 3 f{ J i f 1 1 1 i 1 5 k 4 j{ { i F S { 1 i t E f S a i i t i Chapter 6 PERFORMANCE STANDARDS 10-1-1 INDUSTRIAL PARK DESIGN STANDARDS: TITLE 10 Zoning Chapter 6 PERFORMANCE STANDARDS 4"-=a INDUS PUAL42ARK DESIGN STANDARDS: nt.,) P-wrpeseT The industrial paFk design standards establish de6'qR GFiteFma and minimum stand to F4pdustypr4aWeveleme tt-w p e- urpose of the design starrdsAs` W.
