Background
The proposed final plat consists of one lot and two outlots. A new building is proposed on Lot 1A and Lot 1B of the plat. You are seeing a plat with lots labeled as “A” and “B” because it is partially Torrens property and it must be platted as such with Anoka County. The two outlots could be replatted as lots and developed in the future. Lots 1A and 1B are 8.74 acres.
Because the property was previously platted as outlots, park dedication has never been paid for the property. Park dedication would be due for the platted lot, which is 8.74 acres, at the industrial rate in effect at the time of final plat approval. Payment would be required prior to release of final plat mylars for recording. Outlots will be subject to park dedication fees at the time in which they are developed. The current industrial rate for park dedication is $6,093 per acre for a total amount due of $53,253 in 2016.
CSM, the developer, will extend Pheasant Ridge Drive and provide a cul-de-sac that will serve as an access for this lot and any future outlots. The construction of this extension and cul-de-sac will be the responsibility of the developer.
The final plat is consistent with the approved preliminary plat, Resolution No. 16-066.
Recommendation
By motion, approve the Resolution.

AND
Outlot E, CSM LEXINGTON SECOND ADDITION, Anoka County, Minnesota; and
WHEREAS, the Blaine City Council granted preliminary plat approval on April 21, 2016, subject to the stipulations as contained in Blaine City Council Resolution No. 16-066; and
WHEREAS, the applicant has submitted a final plat in general conformance with the approved preliminary plat.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Blaine that final plat approval for development name per Section 74-43 of the subdivision regulations is hereby granted subject to the following conditions:
1. Park dedication would be due for the platted lot, which is 8.74 acres, at the industrial rate in effect at the time of final plat approval. Payment would be required prior to release of final plat mylars for recording. Outlots will be subject to park dedication fees at the time in which they are developed. The current industrial rate for park dedication is $6,093 per acre for a total amount due of $53,253 in 2016.
2. City Council approval of this development shall be contingent upon RCWD approval. No site work will be allowed until a RCWD permit has been obtained.
3. A National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Phase II permit is required from the MN Pollution Control Agency.
4. All internal utilities shall be maintained privately by the development association, including storm sewer piping, infiltration basins, and storm water sediment ponds.
5. Water Availability Charges (WAC) and Sewer Availability Charges (SAC) become due with each building permit.
6. Dedication of utility and drainage easements along lot lines, over delineated wetlands and created wetlands and storm water sediment ponds.

10.

The City will be evaluating this intersection in the next year as part of a 2017 project to resurface a portion of Pheasant Ridge Drive. This evaluation will not only determine what intersection changes or improvements are needed for better levels of service but how those costs will be financed and shared including possible assessments to business park property.
11. The Mayor, City Clerk and City Manager are hereby authorized to execute any and all necessary documents, agreements and releases related to the approval, recording or administration of CSM Lexington Fourth Addition plat.
