Preliminary Plat
ANALYSIS
The two lots included in the proposed plat are exceptions from the Elk Park Center 1 st
Addition. Lot 1, Block 1 is the balance of Mr. Dickenson's property that has not been
included as part of Elk Park Center's shopping center. Outlot A is the location where the
4 single family homes currently exist that will be purchased by Kraus-Anderson and
made part of the storm drainage pond to serve the Elk Park Center project.
The status, along with the terms and conditions of Outlot A, will be included in the
Developer's Agreement for Elk Park Center. Therefore, staffs original concern of this
outlot having the possibility of going tax forfeit has been addressed in that agreement.

ZONING
Mr. Dickenson's parcel was rezoned to Planned Unit Development as part of the Elk Park
Center rezoning. If Outlot A is ever redeveloped in the future, given the size of the lot, a
single use which is compatible with Elk Park Center would be a likely candidate. Since
the property is zoned PUD, the Planning Commission and City Council will have the
opportunity to review whatever proposal is submitted through the conditional use permit
process.
On the other hand, Outlot A was not included in any ofthe rezonings for Elk Park Center.
The present zoning is R2-B (2-Family Residential) and is not intended to change. As part
of updating the comprehensive plan, the Planning Commission and City Council may
consider rezoning this outlot to PUD in order to be consistent with the Elk Park Center
PUD. In any event, this parcel is the location of the necessary storm drainage pond for
Elk Park Center, any future development considerations is highly unlikely.
PARK DEDICATION
e
Based on past practice, divisions which involve an existing house are only required to pay
a park dedication fee for newly created lots. Since Lot 1, Block 1 is a residual of Elk
Park Center and no new lots are being created, park dedication may be waived in this
situation. However, Outlot A will be included as part of the project and, therefore, will
be required to pay a park dedication. This plat was submitted to the Park and Rec
Commission for their review and consideration and concurred with staff s comments.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council approve the preliminary plat for Elk Park Center
2nd Addition with the following conditions:
1. Outlot A include a drainage and utility easement over the entire lot to coincide
with the storm drainage pond.
2. Trunk sanitary sewer and water charge in the amount of $3,800 per acre be paid
for Lot 1, Block 1, prior to releasing the plat for recording.
3. All homes within Outlot A shall be removed from the property within three
months from the date of City Council action.
