Key Financial Strategy - Land Use Vision for County Road 61 B. TH 101 Minnesota River Crossing & CSAH 61 Improvements Update A. Key Financial Strategy — Land Use Vision for County Road 61 One of the priorities in the City Council's Key Financial Strategies was to review the Planning for Infrastructure. The strategy is stated below: Planning for the City Infrastructure: Create solutions for managing existing infrastructure and future growth in our community while preserving a sustainable quality of life and protecting the environment. • Begin Development Planning for Area Surrounding the New River Crossing/Develop a Shared Land Use Vision for County Road 61 Following is a discussion of the importance of studying and planning for the development of this area. BACKGROUND With the scheduled upgrade of the Highway 101 River Crossing and County Road 61, the city has an opportunity to plan for impending development pressures based on the opportunities that these improved corridors create. This corridor is our southern gateway and the city must be proactive in guiding the development in this area. This corridor and the surrounding land form are challenging for development because of the topography, natural and environmental features, and land ownership. These features also create opportunities for unique development. There are approximately 685 acres of property in the corridor study area. There is Senior Center approximately 360 gross acres of developable or redevelopable land. Some of the Phone: 952.227.1125 challenges include 325 acres of property in the Seminary Fen Scientific and Natural Fax 952.227.1110 Area, Minnesota Valley Wildlife Refuge and the Raguet Wildlife Management Area.

Planning Issues 1. A portion of the property is zoned Business Fringe (BF) The intent of the 'BF" district is to accommodate limited commercial uses temporary in nature without urban services, while maintaining the integrity, minimizing impact to, and protecting the natural environment. When urban services are available, land use may change to a higher and improved use of the property. Some of the uses on the BF district may be in conflict with higher and better uses in the future. In addition, the BF district is not consistent with the future land use designation along the corridor. It is guided for predominately Office to the west of Highway 101 and Office - Industrial and High Density Residential to the east of Highway 101. 2.7.5 BUSINESS FRINGE DISTRICT The City has a Business Fringe district that was created to accommodate limited commercial activity without urban services. This land use district located at the intersection of Highway 101 and Flying Cloud Drive will no longer be consistent with the City's land use once urban services arc available. Todd Gerhardt Highway 101 and County Road 61 October 28, 2013 Page 3 of 9 2.13.3 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ZONING MAP INCONSISTENCY Regardless of a property's land use designation, properties not served by urban services shall not be rezoned to a zoning category consistent with the land use designation until such time as urban services arc available. Current zoning of a parcel with a Iess- intensive land use designation may remain. Intensification of land uses may only happen with the provision of urban services.

Land Assembly. Assembly and parcel access consideration should be determined by best practices rather than having one development dictating the plan. Parcel site analysis and concept plans should be developed. 3. Natural Features. The impact of the natural features (slopes, bluff, creeks, floodplains, wetlands, etc.) and the limitations to development should be studied to determine the maximum development potential along the corridor. This data would provide the information needed to determine the cost effectiveness of municipal services. Gedney Pickle and adjacent property have potential for redevelopment but the cost to extend service past the Seminary Fen Scientific and Natural Area needs to be studied. Engineering Issues 1. Securing funding for the completion of the gap of Highway 101 between Pioneer Trail and County Road 61. With the improvement of the segment of Highway 101 north of Pioneer Trail and south of County Road 61 there will be pressure to complete the gap. The gap will also limit development due to the potential for municipal services because the current plan for utility extension is to follow the alignment of Highway 101. The city has requested bonding in the 2014 state legislative session. Staff also envisions applying for federal funding through the Metropolitan Council 2014 solicitation. Staff is also working to advance turnback funds for this segment. %� HIGHWAY 101 COUNTY ROAD 61 _ _ FLOOD MITIGATION PROJECT Todd Gerhardt Highway 101 and County Road 61 October 28, 2013 Page 5 of 9 2. Time and Cost Effective Extension of Municipal Services. Besides the gap in the highway there is a gap in municipal services. Sewer and water is currently available at the south side of Powers Boulevard and Pioneer Trail intersection. A trunk lift station still needs to be constructed to make the sewer line operational. Water will also be available on the south side of the TH 101 and Pioneer Trail intersection in 2014. The study is proposed to examine the timing and any impediments to providing sewer and water to the County Road 61 (Flying Cloud Drive) area. The study will use the 2030 comprehensive plan as the starting point and look to see if any changes need to be made to the plan based on recent roadway improvement projects and developments. + i Figure 8.3.1 - Existing and Future Sanitary Sewer Per �« .

Funding for this study is currently being recommended for 2014 in the CIP. B. TH 101 Minnesota River Crossing and CSAH 61 Improvements Update The design for the TH 101 Minnesota River Crossing and CSAH 61 Improvements is moving along and the project is on schedule to be bid in April. MnDOT is working on the final design of the bridge and will give the plan set over to Carver County since the County will be bidding the project. Street lighting is not planned on the bridge except at low points in the roadway and at the curves at the bridge end points. The roundabout will have lighting and Flying Cloud Drive Todd Gerhardt Highway 101 and County Road 61 October 28, 2013 Page 6 of 9 will have lighting at the signal for Highway 101 North and at the roundabout at Bluff Creek Drive. The trail section for the Highway 101 Minnesota River Bridge will not have lighting. MnDOT is working on two interpretative signs for the trail rest areas on the Highway 101 bridge. These signs will include information about the Minnesota River; how it flows through the state, its settlement history and the natural resources to support human and natural life, as wells as flooding history and present day use. Wildlife in the Minnesota Valley will also be included. One sign may address the archeology findings unearthed by this project. A trail sign with a trail map will be located at each end of the bridge. At this time landscaping is not planned to be extensive in the project area due to right -of -way constraints and future development potential. The center of the two roundabouts are planned to be landscaped but not the corridor itself. The cost for landscaping is not turnback- funding eligible, and Carver County does not participate in landscaping per their new cost participation policy. Two city entry monument concepts are attached to this background. Federal guidelines for roundabout design discourage fixed objects from being constructed in roundabouts. MnDOT also has adopted this guideline. MnDOT and Carver County have agreed the monument sign can be constructed in the roundabout; however, the cost and maintenance would be the city's responsibility. Also, the County wants to be held harmless from any claim related to the trees and monument. Staff is looking for feedback from council if an entry monument should be included in the project.
