Lakeville staff previews Fisher parcel site options and three water‑treatment alternatives
Summary
City staff described site‑plan concepts for the newly acquired Fisher parcel — including housing, limited commercial and space potentially reserved for public‑works storage — and presented three water‑treatment alternatives: expand the existing plant (~$26M), build a satellite plant on the Fisher site (~$44M), or a bypass option with limited filtration. Council raised access and cost concerns and deferred decisions pending market interest and the 2026 comp‑plan update.
Lakeville City staff presented master‑site concepts for the recently acquired Fisher parcel and a fresh analysis of options to meet the city’s future water‑treatment needs. The Fisher concepts place higher‑density housing or commercial uses north of a planned fire station and reserve land near the water tower for a satellite treatment facility, public‑works storage, or other civic uses.
The consultant and staff emphasized access constraints: the parcel has limited access from the south and east and is expected to rely primarily on Dodd Boulevard. “We’ve acquired the property, the process of demoing the property,” Speaker 3 said, and staff later urged reserving a small portion next to the water tower for future flexibility.
