Planning commission backs reguiding of several parcels to correct mapping errors

Shakopee Planning Commission · December 6, 2024

Summary

Staff told the commission several parcels were mis‑guided in the 2040 Comprehensive Plan; commissioners unanimously recommended Council approve Resolution R2024-143 to reguide four parcels to uses reflecting on‑the‑ground conditions and development intent.

City staff presented a reguiding package Dec. 5 to correct mapping errors in the 2040 Comprehensive Plan and recommended the commission forward Resolution R2024-143 to City Council. The proposals would reguide 26 acres at 12460 Wekman Road from open space to mixed employment center, about 20 acres from open space to mixed employment center, a 5‑acre parcel at 12275 Wekman Road from utilities to mixed employment center, and about 54 acres at 11810 Buena Vista Drive from open space to suburban residential.

Staff characterized the changes as corrections to align the plan with current and foreseeable development opportunities; for example, the landscaping contracting business at 12275 Wekman Road better aligns with a business‑park use than with a utilities designation. "This is currently a, working gravel pit," staff said while showing the mapped areas and noting some parcels were likely mis‑classified in prior map production. No members of the public testified during the hearing.

A motion to recommend City Council approve Resolution R2024‑143 passed unanimously by voice vote. If Council adopts the reguiding, future zoning and development requests are anticipated to follow the updated comp‑plan guidance.
