DISCUSSION: Overview Kwik Trip is proposing a 234 square-foot cooler/freezer addition to the south side of their existing convenience store located at 217 Elm Street. The subject property is located in the B-2 Downtown Business zoning district where convenience stores with gas are listed as a conditional use. Any proposed site plan modifications, including additions, requires a conditional use permit. As the Commission may recall in January of 2023, Kwik Trip was approved a similar addition to their Pilot Knob location. The cooler/freezer additions are to help create a larger, safer, and more productive kitchen space by removing the existing interior cooler/freezer and adding a larger exterior walk-in cooler/freezer combination unit. Site Plan The proposed addition will be located on the south side of the existing convenience store adjacent with Elm Street/County Road 50. The addition will be flush with the front of the existing building and will extend south roughly 9 feet and be nearly 26 feet long. Existing conditions to the south of the building include a fenced area for existing mechanical equipment, open space, and a concrete pad area with picnic tables. The existing fenced area will be adjusted to the west where screening of the mechanical equipment will be maintained. An area for picnic tables will still be provided for further south of the addition. There will be no impacts to existing parking spaces onsite. There are no setback requirements in the B-2 zoning district but for reference the addition will be setback a little over 16 feet from the south property line abutting Elm Street/County Road 50. There are also no parking requirements in the B-2 zoning district, therefore no additional parking spaces are needed. The addition will match the existing building's brick facade. The proposed addition meets all other applicable site design standards in City Code. Conditional Use Permit Criteria Page 12 of 70 Per City Code Section 10-3-5(C), a conditional use shall be approved if it is found to meet the following criteria: 1. The proposed use conforms to the district permitted and conditional use provisions and all general regulations of this title. 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 performance standards listed below. 3. The proposed use shall be constructed, designed, sited, oriented and landscaped to produce harmonious relationship of buildings and grounds to adjacent buildings and properties. 4. The proposed use shall produce a total visual impression and environment which is consistent with the environment of the neighborhood. 5. The proposed use shall organize vehicular access and parking to minimize traffic congestion in the neighborhood. 6. The proposed use shall preserve the objectives of this title and shall be consistent with the comprehensive plan. Staff believes the proposed addition meets all applicable criteria listed above. BUDGET IMPACT: Not applicable ACTION REQUESTED: Approve the requested conditional use permit to construct a cooler/freezer addition to the existing convenience store (Kwik Trip) located at 217 Elm Street subject to the following condition: 1. All necessary building permits are obtained.

The parks and recreation commission reviewed a draft ordinance that repeals the existing park dedication ordinance and creates a new Public Park, Trails and Open Space Dedication Ordinance. DISCUSSION: The city hired Hoisington Koegler Group Inc. (HKGi) to complete a park dedication study to review the city’s existing park dedication requirements, identify any needed changes to the existing ordinance, and ensure compliance with state statute. The study started in March 2023 and kicked off with a joint work session with the city council, planning commission, and parks and recreation commission as an introduction to park dedication and an overview of the city’s current ordinance. Since then, city staff have been collaborating with HKGi on possible revisions to the current ordinance. HKGi presented the park dedication study findings and recommendations at a joint planning commission and parks and recreation commission work session on June 10, 2024. Attached is the staff memo, HKGi joint meeting report, and PowerPoint slides developed and presented by HKGi for the work session. The parks and recreation commission reviewed the attached draft ordinance at their June 12, 2024 meeting. They recommended approval of the draft Public Park, Trails and Open Space Dedication Ordinance and planning commission to hold a public hearing and forward to city council for consideration with a vote of 3-0. The city attorney reviewed the attached draft Ordinance 2024-08 and found it to be acceptable. ACTION REQUESTED: Recommend city council approve Ordinance 2024-08, an Ordinance amending Title 11, Chapter 4, of the Farmington City Code.

The current Park Dedication Ordinance (Ordinance) was last amended in its entirety in 2003. Several text amendments were made to the Ordinance in 2005 and 2007. Staff observed over the past year when platting of developments there has been confusion with certain aspects and language within the Ordinance. In addition, recently park dedication has been a contentious issue for developers and this has made its way to the Minnesota State Legislature. Minnesota Recreation and Parks Association (MRPA), which the city is a member of, has a legislative committee and hires a lobbyist to monitor and track state legislation impacting the parks and recreation industry. MRPA monitors park dedication legislation annually during sessions. With all this to consider, Hoisington Koegler Group Inc. (HKGi) was hired to complete a park dedication study. City council, at its February 21, 2023 meeting, approved an agreement with HKGi to complete a park dedication study. In April 2023, a joint work session was held with city council, planning commission, an presented HKGi from Trapp recreation commission. and parks and Rita introduction to park dedication and overview of the city’s current Ordinance. DISCUSSION: Following the joint work session, HKGi was to complete the park dedication study. This included reviewing the Assest Management Tool to determine an essential nexus, analyzing the current land dedication requirements, and reviewing sample sites within the city to better understand market value. HKGi was working on proposed updates to the park dedication Code language when we decided to pause the study to wait for the decision in a lawsuit between the City of Burnsville and Almir Puce on park dedication fees. This park dedication fee lawsuit was decided in the Supreme Court in the State of Minnesota and in favor of the City of Burnsville. Following publishing the opinion in the case, the city attorney reviewed the opinion, proposed edits to the Ordinance, and fees relating to parks. The upcoming timeline and process for the Ordinance update is: •June 10, 2024: Joint work session for planning commission and parks and recreation commission to present study findings and recommendations. •June 12, 2024: Parks and recreation commission will review and discuss information presented at Page 19 of 70 joint work session. Based on the discussion, the parks and recreation commission will approve the draft Ordinance and recommend to the planning commission to approve. •July 9, 2024: The planning commission will hold a public hearing. Based on the input, the planning commission will approve the draft Ordinance and recommend to city council to approve. •July 15, 2024: The draft Ordinance will be presented to city council for approval. Rita Trapp from HKGi will be attending the joint work session to present the park dedication study findings and recommendations. Included in the packet is a report from HKGi, which includes the new draft Ordinance. The city attorney reviewed the attached draft Ordinance and found it to be acceptable. ACTION REQUESTED: Listen to the presentation, ask any questions you have, and provide feedback on the draft Ordinance.

Title 11, Chapter 4 Section 9 of the Farmington City Code is hereby repealed and replaced as follows: 11-4-9: PUBLIC PARK, TRAILS AND OPEN SPACE DEDICATION: (A) Land Dedication Required for Parks, Trails, and Open Space: 1. In every subdivision of land, a reasonable portion of such land shall be dedicated to the public or preserved for conservation purposes or for public use as parks, playgrounds, trails, wetlands, or open space. 2. It is hereby found and declared that, pursuant to Minnesota Statutes Annotated section 462.358, subdivision 2b, it is reasonable to require dedication of an amount of land equal in value to that set forth in subsection (C) of this section. 3. This dedication shall be in addition to the land dedicated for streets, alleys, storm water ponds, or other public purposes. 4. Previously subdivided property from which a park dedication has been received, being re-subdivided with the same number of lots, is exempt from park dedication requirements. If, as a result of re-subdividing the property, the number of lots is increased, then the park dedication or per-lot cash fee must apply only to the net increase of lots. 5. For purposes of this section, the term "developer" includes all owners, developers or subdividers who have an interest in or control over the land to be subdivided. (B) Land to be Dedicated 1. Land dedicated under this section shall reasonably conform to the City's comprehensive plan. 2. Land Suitability i. Land to be dedicated shall be suitable for public use as parks, trails, and open space or for one of those purposes as shall be determined in the sole discretion of the City. Page 66 of 70 Ordinance 2024-08 Page 2 of 5 ii. The City shall not be required to accept land which will not be usable for parks, trails or open space or which would require extensive expenditures on the part of the City to make them usable. iii. The City will not give park dedication credit for floodplains, wetlands, stormwater ponding areas, land encumbered by gas pipeline or other utility easements, slopes of more than twenty percent (20%) grade or for required sidewalks or walkways within road rights of way. iv. All land dedicated for parks shall have at least one hundred fifty feet (150') of street frontage on at least one side. All trails shall have at least a twenty foot (20') wide access where the trail connects to a street, sidewalk, or trail. v. All land dedicated for parks, trails, and/or open space shall be designed to incorporate natural features as much as possible, such as rivers, streams, wildlife habitats, woodlands, and ponding areas. 3. If the amount of land required to be dedicated is more than the amount of land being subdivided, the City will accept a combination of land dedication and cash payment. 4. If the City accepts park dedication in an amount less than the amount required by subsection (C) of this section, the developer shall pay to the City the appraised fair market value of the remaining land required to be dedicated. The appraised value of the remaining land required to be dedicated shall be determined by the method specified in subsection (D)4 of this section. 5. Prior to the dedication of the required property, the developer shall: i. Provide a survey with topographic data, including contours at vertical intervals of at least two feet, watercourses, wetlands, marshes, rock outcrops, easements, utilities and vegetative data. Portions of any property dedicated to the public for park and recreation purposes to be used for borrow and fill activities elsewhere in the development shall be clearly identified. ii. Provide the City with evidence of title in a form acceptable to the City Attorney or a title insurance policy insuring the City's interest in the property. In any dedication of required land, the developer must have good and marketable title to the land, free and clear of any mortgages, liens, encumbrances or assessments, except easements or minor imperfections of title acceptable to the City. (C) Dedication Formula for Park Land, Trails, and Open Space: 1. Residential Development: The amount of land to be dedicated shall satisfy the City’s parkland standard of 0.02 acres per person as established, and as may be amended, in the City’s Comprehensive Plan. The total amount of land to be dedicated shall be determined by multiplying the proposed number of dwelling units in each land use designation by the required acres of land to be dedicated per dwelling unit as shown in the formula below. The formula uses the number of persons per dwelling unit, as Page 67 of 70 Ordinance 2024-08 Page 3 of 5 determined by the estimate provided in the most recent American Community Survey for the City of Farmington. The dedication rate shall be determined at the time of preliminary plat approval. Land Use Designation Acres of land dedicated per person Persons per household Acres of land dedicated per dwelling unit Low Density Residential 0.02 X 2.90 = 0.058 Low/Medium Density Residential 0.02 X 1.60 = 0.032 Medium or High Density Residential 0.02 X 1.15 = 0.023 2. Industrial Development: In industrial developments, five percent (5%) of the net area (gross area minus wetland and floodplain) included in the land to be subdivided shall be dedicated for parks, trails and open space. 3. Commercial Development: The park, trail, and open space dedication requirement of the land to be subdivided for a commercial, light industrial and/or nonresidential subdivision or development shall be five percent (5%) of the net area (gross area minus wetland and floodplain) included in the land to be subdivided. 4. Manufactured Home Park Development: The park, trail and open space dedication requirement for a manufactured home park shall be based the low/medium density residential requirements in subsection (C)1 of this section and shall be determined prior to the developer receiving approval of the site plan for such development. 5. Mixed Use Development: The amount of land to be dedicated shall be based on the calculation of the individual uses within the development as described in subsections (C)1 through 4 above. In the case of mixed use projects within the same building, the amount of land to be dedicated shall be calculated based on the percentage of square feet devoted to the nonresidential uses and the total number of dwelling units being created for the residential use. (D) Cash In Lieu Of Land: 1. The City shall have the option to require cash contributions in lieu of accepting dedication of land or may accept a combination of land dedication and cash payment. Page 68 of 70 Ordinance 2024-08 Page 4 of 5 2. Contributions of cash in lieu of land shall be placed in a special reserve park fund which shall be held and used by the city to acquire land for, or to improve, parks, playgrounds, trails, or public open space. Cash payments will not be used for ongoing operation or maintenance of parks, recreational facilities, playgrounds, trails, wetlands, or open space. 3. The City shall require a cash payment in lieu of park, trail, and open space dedication whenever: i. The proposed dedication of land for public use is not needed; ii. The proposed dedication of land for public use is not suitable for the intended use; iii. The proposed dedication of land is too small for practical maintenance; or iv. The cash payment would be more beneficial to the development of the overall park system than dedication of the land within the property to be developed. 4. Determination of Cash Payment i. If the City elects to accept a cash payment in lieu of land, the developer shall pay to the City the same percentage of the appraised fair market value of the land that would otherwise be dedicated for park, trail, and open space under subsection (C) of this section. ii. The appraised fair market value of the land shall be determined by a qualified licensed appraiser of the developer’s choosing at the time of final subdivision approval and shall meet the uniform standards of professional appraisal practice. The appraiser fee shall be paid by the developer. iii. If the City disputes such appraisal, the City may, at the developer’s expense, obtain an appraisal of the property by a qualified real estate appraiser, which appraisal shall be conclusive evidence of the fair market value of the land. (E) Modification of Requirements: The dedication requirements based on the development's proportional share of the city park system are presumptively appropriate. A developer may request a deviation from the presumptive requirements based upon: the anticipated impact of that particular subdivision; existing park and recreational facilities; or proposed parks, open space, recreational, or common areas and facilities open to the public as designated on development plans. The request must be made to the City Council as part of an application for final plat approval. The City Council, after consideration of the request, may modify or reduce the requirements of this section. (F) Credit for Private Park and Open Space: No credit to the requirements of subsection (C) of this section will be given for private park, recreational facilities, or trails. (G) Timing: The requirements of this section for dedication of land or for contribution of cash in lieu of land shall apply at the time of final plat approval, replat, minor subdivision, Page 69 of 70 Ordinance 2024-08 Page 5 of 5 or waiver of platting, and shall apply to any plat, replat, subdivision, waiver of platting, or development which receives final approval. (H) Improvements to Dedicated Land: 1. As part of the subdivision approval, the developer shall be responsible for making certain improvements to dedicated park land, including, but not limited to, finish grading, ground cover, construction of trails, and clearly identifying park and trail boundaries with City-approved markers. 2. Park Tree Requirements: The developer is subject to Section 10-6-11, Woodland and Tree Preservation. The developer shall preserve all existing trees to the greatest extent possible during the grading process on the land that is to be dedicated for a park, trail, or open space. In cases where a significant tree or trees, as defined in Section 10-6- 11 Woodland and Tree Preservation, are lost during the grading process on the land that is to be dedicated for parks, trails, or open space, the developer shall be required to replace each significant tree lost with two (2) new trees that are at least two inches (2") in caliper. 3. Trail Construction: When the City's trail master plan identifies a trail or trails to be constructed in the land to be subdivided, the developer shall be required to pay for the construction of the trail improvements. The construction specifications of trails shall be determined by the City Engineer and Parks and Recreation Director. Whenever possible, trails shall connect with existing trails and/or sidewalks. The City's Planning Division, Parks and Recreation Department, and Engineering Department shall determine when it is feasible for trails to be constructed to encircle ponding or wetland areas. 4. Utilities: The developer shall bring utilities a reasonable distance inside the property line of the future park, as determined by the City Engineer, and shall cap them off at no cost to the City. Utilities shall include gas, storm sewer, water, electricity, and sanitary sewer. The location where such utilities are to be brought into the future park shall be determined by the City Engineer and Parks and Recreation Director. SECTION 2. Effective date. This Ordinance shall be effective upon adoption and publication according to law. Passed by the City Council of the City of Farmington, Minnesota, this 15th day of July 2024.
