Background/Discussion The applicant, Heritage Millwork, is proposing to plat the city -owned property, outlot B, in the Nature's Edge Business Center Fourth Addition Subdivision. The applicant has been working with staff and the City Council to acquire a portion of the parcel to support the development of their light manufacturing operation. The plat creates two lots, the first of which is a 14.06-acre parcel that will be the site of the proposed light manufacturing operation, and the second will be re -platted as an outlot to support future development. Both lots will be served by city sewer and water and meet all minimum design criteria for a buildable lot in the city's business park zoning district. The buildable lot will be sold by the city to the applicant. The city will retain ownership of the outlet and continue to market the property for additional business park uses. The proposed use is a permitted use and will be reviewed under the city's administrative site plan review process. The use does not require a conditional use permit or any additional land use action from the Planning Commission or City Council. Park Dedication The city ordinance outlines the cash dedication requirement for the platting of buildable parcels. As one lot will be platted into a buildable lot, park dedication is due for the 14.06-acre parcel.
