PUD.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PLYMOUTH,
MINNESOTA, that it should and hereby does approve the request for reclassification of the zoning from
FRD to PUD for18 acres legally described above, based on the following findings:
1. The requested PUD zoning is consistent with LA-1 guiding.
2. The proposed density and single-family development is consistent with LA-1 guiding.
3. The residential development and lot arrangement would comply with the requested PUD.
4. The adjacent properties to the west and south have been rezoned to PUD with similar lot widths
but larger lot sizes. The properties to the north across the Soo Line tracks are conventionally
zoned and are slightly smaller in lot width and size. The lot widths and sizes for this PUD fall
between the two and would represent a transition between the two adjacent subdivisions.
5. Adequate infrastructure would be available to support the proposed development.
ADOPTED by the City Council on this 23rd day of April, 2019.
