Background
The applicant is proposing to relocate existing ponding on the south side of the Menards site in order to have a location to construct a proposed second warehouse building. The relocated ponding will be located on Outlots A and B. Therefore, a plat is required to create a newly configured Outlot A and Outlot B for Menards to purchase from the existing property owner on 101st Avenue. The property owner on 101st Avenue will retain Lot 1 Block 2 for their existing building. Lot 1 Block 1 will include the existing Menards site and the area that will be used to construct the new warehouse building.
Menards has presented a final plat that contains two lots and two outlots. The total acreage of the site is 21.2 acres. Lot 1, Block 1, on which the Menards site is to be located, is approximately 16.2 acres.
Park dedication will be required for the additional area that is being platted with Lot 1 Block 1(new warehouse building).
Coon Creek Watershed District (CCWD) reviewed the site and has concurred with the project. No site work will be allowed until a CCWD permit has been obtained.
This property will require extensive grading to construct the new ponds. There is an existing storm sewer from 101st Avenue that runs through the new lot. A 10’ wide easement must be dedicated on the plat or by separate document to cover the storm sewer.
The size of grading on this site requires a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit from the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA.)
A portion of this parcel is shown on the FEMA flood maps as an area determined to be in an A-Zone, an area that can be inundated by 100 year flooding. This designation will require the developer to process a Letter of Map Revision with FEMA.
The final plat is consistent with the approved preliminary plat, Resolution No. 19-116.
Recommendation
By motion, approve the Resolution.
