Planning Commission Action
The Planning Commission voted unanimously to approve the preliminary plat. There were no comments at the public hearing.
Background
In February 2018, the City Council approved a conditional use permit that allows for the construction of a new elementary school for the Anoka Hennepin School District on the northwest corner of Lever Street and 125th Avenue. The proposed school will serve Pre-K through 5th grade students and it will be approximately 136,000 square feet.
As part of the resolution of approval for the conditional use permit (Res. 18-24), a preliminary plat was required to be submitted to establish easements over wetlands, storm water areas, streets, trails and right-of-access for the project. The plat is currently under review at the Anoka County Highway Department and the proposed plat will need to address and incorporate comments that the county offers in their review.
This application includes a preliminary plat for 1 (one) lot on the 38-acre parcel. All easements have been incorporated on this plat. The applicant will also need to go through final plat approval.
Park dedication has already been paid for the school with the issuance of the conditional use permit and as part of the school district’s submittal for a building permit.
Recommendation
By motion, approve the Resolution.
