Overview
The area included in the preliminary and final plat includes lands owned by
both the School District and City of Elk River. The primary purpose in
platting this property is for the convenience of transferring property between
both the School District and the City of Elk River. In addition, there were
numerous drainage and utility easements which needed to be described over
13065 Orono Parkway · P.O. Box 490 · Elk River, MN 55330 · TDD & Phone: (612) 441-7420 · Fax: (612) 441-7425

existing utilities which extend throughout the property. Besides easements
to cover the existing utilities, there were also additional easements relating
to drainage and future utility extensions. The platting process will describe
all of this information for easy reference.
Land Exchange
The following are the land exchanges that will take place to clean up
ownership of the Oak Knoll Park complex, the Area Learning Center and
Community Education facility:
Lot 1 will be transferred from the School District to the City.
· Lot 2 will remain under the School District ownership.
· Lot 3 will be transferred from the School District to the City.
· Lot 4 will remain the School District's property.
· Outlot A will be transferred from the City to the School District.
· Outlot B will remain the ownership of the City.
Park Dedication and Surface Water Management
Given the existing recreational fields within the limits of this plat it is
recommended no park dedication be required. The only other fee that
typically accompanies a plat is the surface water management fee. The area
to be improved for the Area Learning Center is approximately 3 acres. This
would include the building and new parking lot. Based on 3 acres a surface
water management fee of $2,478.30 would be required.
Recommendation
It is recommended the City Council approve preliminary plat and Resolution
No. 98- , granting final plat approval for Independent School District #728
with the following conditions:
1. THE LAND TRANSACTIONS OUTLINED IN THIS REPORT BE COMPLETED.
A SURFACE WATER MANAGEMENT FEE IN THE AMOUNT OF $2,478.30 BE PAID PRIOR
TO RECORDING THE PLAT WITH SHERBURNE COUNTY.
