WATER AND SEWER: Available to the site. ILhj PHYSICAL CHARACTER. : The site currently contains Market Boulevard C]� and Bowling Alley Road, and a portion of 1 Filly's parking lot. 2000 LAND USE PLAN: Commercial II , I 11 11 Easy Ryder Subdivision October 3, 1990 Page 2 BACKGROUND As part of the downtown redevelopment and the City's acquisition of ' the Instant Web building, the City purchased, through metes and bounds description, the subject property. Since the transactions were done by metes and bounds descriptions, the right-of-ways acquired for Market Boulevard and "Bowling Alley" Road do not show on any half section maps or plats and it is unclear as to the extent and location of city owned land located in the Filly's parking lot. Therefore, staff initiated the preliminary plat to ' locate the City owned property and to have the street right-of-ways shown on all plats and half sections for future reference. PROPOSAL The proposal is to plat the right-of-way for Market Boulevard and "Bowling Alley" Road. In addition, the preliminary plat is creating 3 outlots (A, B and C) which are also under city ownership. Outlots A and B are located within Filly's parking lot and Outlot C is a remnant piece south of "Bowling Alley" Road and ' north of the railroad track. All of the property is proposed to be platted as right-of-way or as an outlot. The City will be retaining ownership of the 3 outlots and the ' outlots will remain as outlots and unbuildable unless combined with adjacent properties. Currently, the size and configuration of the outlots results in them being unbuildable. The City is in the process, along with the Southwest Metro Transit Commission, of ' considering relocating the bus shelter currently located on Market Boulevard. The first proposal was to relocate the shelter onto Outlot C, but due to the limitations from being required to maintain an area of open site distance for the railroad track crossing at Market Boulevard, the shelter is now proposed for Outlot A (Attachment #1) . There will still be landscaping ' improvements and a bus turnaround provided on Outlot C. Parking for the bus shelter, the bus shelter and improvements will be granted by the City to the Southwest Metro Transit Commission by easement over Outlots A and B. Outlot C is now proposed primarily for only the bus turnaround and accessory improvements. To further ensure that the bus shelter, bus turnaround and accessory improvements are public improvements, staff is _recommending that "Bowling Alley" Road right-of-way include Outlot C and the portion of Outlot A which will contain the bus shelter. This will allow the improvements which would not be permitted on an "outlot" since ' an outlot can not be developed. Southwest Metro Transit Commission will retain a 5 to 10 year easement over the bus shelter improvements and will be responsible for maintenance. Should the bus shelter not be permanent and again be relocated, the portion ' of right-of-way no longer necessary could be vacated. Plans for the relocation of the shelter are only conceptual at this time. The HRA has agreed in principal but final approvals are yet to be 1 S Easy Ryder Subdivision October 3, 1990 Page 3 obtained. In addition, the site plan will need to be finalized for review by the Planning Commission and City Council at future meetings. NOTE: The reason for the quotation marks around "Bowling Alley" Road is that this is not the official name nor does anyone want it to be the official name of the street. When Market Boulevard was constructed, a contest was held to name the street. The City Council could again initiate such a contest. PLANNING COMMISSION UPDATE The Planning Commission unanimously recommended approval of the preliminary plat with staff's recommended condition. ' RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends the City Council adopt the following motion: , "The City Council approves Preliminary Plat #90-8, for Easy Ryder Addition as shown on the plat dated September 6, 1990, with the following conditions: 1. Outlot C and the portion of Outlot A used for the bus shelter shall be shown as part of "Bowling Alley" Road right-of-way. " ATTACHMENTS 1. Bus shelter improvements. 2.
