Background
CalAtlantic Homes (the former Ryland Homes) is the builder and developer of the Preserve at Legacy Creek. At this time they are requesting final plat approval for the fourth and final phase of this development. The plat includes larger lot single family home sites (72-75 feet). The CUP that set the development standards was adopted by the City Council as part of the Preliminary Plat in May of 2013.
The final plat known as The Preserve at Legacy Creek 4th Addition consists of 32 single family lots and one (1) outlot. Outlot A will be used for a drainage and utility easement.
Park dedication will be required for this plat in the amount of $4,114 per unit for a total of $131,648. This fee must be paid prior to release of mylars for recording at Anoka County.
The developer has responsibility for financial participation in 125th Avenue NE improvements associated with this development. This includes, but is not limited to, intersection improvements, traffic signal installations, and roadway widening improvements. The City has calculated the development potential of all of the developable property, lying north of 125th Avenue and within the current development schedule provided by the 2005 MUSA and has determined the per lot cost associated for the improvements to be $1,494 per lot (2017 rate). A total of 32 units will be constructed with this phase of the development so the total charge required would be $47,808.
The developer has responsibility for financial participation in 131st Avenue NE improvements associated with this development. This includes, but is not limited to, one half of the cost to construct 131st Avenue across the entire northern property line of the Preserve at Legacy Creek plat, approximately 1650 feet. These improvements will include construction of 131st Avenue to a width of 33 feet and meet the current State Aid street standards along with a 8 foot bituminous trail and a six foot concrete sidewalk. The estimated construction cost share of the Preserve at Legacy Creek development for 131st Avenue must be paid prior to the release of mylars for recording at Anoka County.
The final plat is consistent with the approved preliminary plat, Resolution No. 13-067.
