Call to Order 2. Discussion on Amendments to 2040 Vision + Plan and Zoning Ordinance for single-family housing goals 3. Adjournment 1 | Page MEMORANDUM __________________________________________________ To: Monticello Planning Commission From: Angela Schumann, Community Development Director Date: August 1, 2025 RE: Monticello 2040 Vision + Plan and Zoning Ordinance: Single-Family Housing Goals REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND The City Council, Planning Commission and Economic Development Authority met in a workshop on March 31, 2025 to discuss goals and objectives for housing in Monticello, with a specific focus on single-family residential development. As an outcome of the discussion, staff believe that amendments to the 2040 Plan and within individual zoning districts would support the City’s single-family housing goals as outlined in the workshop. Amendments to more clearly define the stated goals will also provide clearer expectations for the residential development community. The purpose of the August 5th Planning Commission workshop will be to review and discuss potential amendments and provide direction on the next steps. AMENDMENT CONSIDERATIONS Monticello 2040 Vision + Plan: Chapter 3, Land Use, Growth & Annexation 1. 2040 Residential Land Use Designations (Estate Residential, Low Density Residential, Traditional Neighborhood, Mixed Density Residential and Mixed Neighborhood) a. Define gross versus net densities in Development Form area text b. Low-Density Residential (LDR) i. Consider a lower density threshold of 2.0 units – 5.0 units/acre | net acre 2 | Page ii. Consider additional language requiring amenities in consideration for higher density range, such as: • High-level of front façade detail, including a combination of brick or stone and other architectural elements which build neighborhood character and support the retention of individual unit value • Require homes that will face their community using porches, patios, landscaping and de-emphasizing garages • Develop neighborhoods that include a sense of community and continuity and avoid monotony and sameness c. Discuss alignment between density thresholds stated in 2040 Plan residential land use designations and individual corresponding zoning districts (i.e. between Low Density Residential land use designation and the R-1 Zoning District) 2. Land Use Goals: Goal #2 Current Goal: City that prioritizes growth inward by concentrating development activities within the existing city boundaries and grows or develops into the Orderly Annexation Area only when development is proposed or planned contiguous to city boundaries, sensitive open space lands are protected and thoughtfully incorporated into the development pattern, and the land is serviced by appropriate utility and transportation systems. Amendment: Residential development will support Monticello’s vision for retaining our small town character and reinforcing a sense of community and belonging. We will plan for measured, incremental residential growth which is thoughtfully planned and which creates well-designed neighborhoods which will retain their quality and value into the future. 3. Future Land Use Map Discuss re-guiding land areas within the growth area for: a. Additional Estate Residential designations within both guided areas and Development Reserve areas, focusing on conservation design potential as outlined in the 2040 Plan i. Would require amendment to the acreage calculations in the plan ii. Would require amendment to the Future Land Use Map 3 | Page b. Re-guide Mixed Neighborhood or Mixed Density Residential areas to align with goals for encouraging additional lower density single-family opportunity while balancing the need for affordable workforce housing options i. Would require amendment to the acreage calculations in the plan ii. Would require amendment to the Future Land Use Map Monticello Zoning Ordinance: Single-Family Residential Districts 1. Review R-1 (Single-Family Residential) District for additional language on desired amenities aligning with 2040 Plan amendment noted above; discuss: a. Discuss lot width standards in relationship to housing trends/costs b. Review finished and finishable square footage requirements c. Incorporate/revise façade treatment statements: i. No less than 10% brick or stone requirement when a combination of board and batten, corbels, shakes, garage windows or other façade features exceed 20% of the front façade ii. Livable portions of the home exposed to the front street no less than 40% of the width of the structure, or in the alternative, the addition of usable front porches or expanded front entry patios or entry features iii. Front entry doors no greater than 6 feet farther back from the garage doors, or in the alternative, the addition of usable front porches or expanded front entry patios or entry features 2. Re-confirm lot size requirements in R-A, R-1 and T-N Districts 3. Review and discuss T-N standards in comparison to Traditional Residential and Mixed-Density Residential densities DISCUSSION POINTS • What are ideal lot sizes for cities to manage - avoiding the inefficiency of larger lots and the risks and problems of HOA-managed narrower lot properties? What variety should be offered and where? • How much Estate Residential designated land have we lost in recent land use decisions and where? Where should we gain? • Is the City comfortable with the current mixed-density residential designations/guidance? 4 | Page • The City needs to maintain focus on importance of workforce housing per the economic development goals of the City. Where should it be directed - TN, Mixed Residential? • How does this relate to the current housing market? How is that held in tension with the goals of the City? SUPPORTIND DATA A.

Monticello Official Zoning Map 32 MONTICELLO’S VISION VISION STATEMENT This Phase 1 Visioning process and community engagement resulted in clear community values, growth aspirations and a vision to inform the planning direction for the next 20 years. The vision, value statements and preferred scenario served as the foundation for the Monticello 2040 Comprehensive Plan and helped inform a set of goals, policies and strategies for achieving the community’s vision. In 2040 the City of Monticello is an inclusive community focused around sustainable growth while maintaining its small-town character. Monticello is a Mississippi River town known for its schools, parks, biking and walking trails and vibrant downtown. Monticello is an evolving, friendly and safe community that respects the quality of its environment, fosters a sense of belonging and connection, encourages a healthy and active lifestyle and supports innovation to promote a prosperous economy. MONTICELLO 2040 COMMUNITY VISION STATEMENT MONTICELLO TODAY AND TOMORROW MONTICELLO 2040 VISION + PLAN 33 MONTICELLO 2040 COMMUNITY VALUE STATEMENTS VALUE STATEMENTS These statements were informed by community feedback and reflect the aspirations of the community during the Visioning phase. A safe, clean, and beautiful community supported by caring and helpful residents. A network of parks, open space and trail connections that provide recreation opportunities. An inclusive community welcoming people of all ages, races, religions and ethnic backgrounds. A diversified and strong local economy competitive at regional, state and national levels. A vibrant downtown that embraces the River and provides a focal point for the community. A balanced land use and transportation framework that provides options and connectivity. A range of attainable housing options in terms of type, cost, and location. A respected school and education system serving the community. A healthy community focused on physical and mental health and wellness of its residents. A thriving arts and culture scene that reflects the creativity of the community and supports a sense of place. 38 MONTICELLO TODAY AND TOMORROW PREFERRED GROWTH SCENARI0 Incremental, Sustainable Growth The community envisions Monticello in 2040 as an environmentally and economically sustainable community that has experienced strong, balanced growth. Conservation focused single-family residential neighborhoods have been developed in the southern and western portions of the city, and some portions of the annexation area in a manner that clusters development and preserves the natural environment. These neighborhoods focus on optimizing sustainability through natural drainage, connected pedestrian paths and trails and designated areas for urban agriculture. The development sites have been oriented to maximize passive lighting, heating and cooling. They also include a series of small and medium sized park-like open spaces. Land trusts have been established to protect the most sensitive natural environments and watersheds and allowing conservation focused residential development. A series of ‘green infrastructure’ measures have been established by the city and encouraged as a part of all development projects. New retail, commercial and a range of industrial uses have been developed on vacant land along the Interstate and within the Otter Creek Industrial Park including a new mixed use center offering retail and commercial services. A large focus has been placed on infill development to maximize sustainability and creative connections between neighborhoods and development nodes. Research and development, manufacturing, health care and professional services have been developed as part of growing local employment base. Downtown is the cultural and social heart of Monticello with a mix of retail, office, housing, and public spaces. This has resulted in a multi-use arts district with enhanced streetscape and pedestrian amenities. Entertainment uses, restaurants and cafes also have opened and are thriving. This has prompted the development of multi-family residential uses in the neighborhoods surrounding downtown. It is anticipated these development activities and improvements will occur incrementally over a period of time, but all will contribute to help Monticello achieve its vision. MONTICELLO 2040 COMMUNITY PREFERRED GROWTH SCENARIO In c rem e n t a l , Sustaina b l e LAND USE, GROWTH AND ORDERLY ANNEXATION 8 GROWTH STRATEGY Monticello’s growth strategy balances land use development needs with real estate market demand, and transportation and infrastructure improvement requirements to ensure an orderly and efficient use of land and resources. There is a significant amount of development potential within Monticello’s existing municipal boundary and even greater potential in the surrounding MOAA. Therefore, for the next 20 years, the general growth strategy prioritizes development of remaining available vacant land within existing boundaries and the downtown and surrounding area before substantially developing and annexing land within the MOAA. The growth strategy has three objectives: • Encourage growth which creates a strong and vibrant place to live, work, shop and recreate, with focused infill development and redevelopment to create a vibrant downtown and core community; development which provides a range of housing, employment and economic opportunity; development which provides both a walkable community and safe multi-modal transportation options; and development which sustains and enhances the natural amenities of Monticello. • Support investment and reinvestment within the existing city boundary of Monticello, directing development into areas of Monticello already serviced or planned to be serviced by roads and utilities, while also thoughtfully designing and limiting development within and around sensitive natural areas. • Ensure the managed development of appropriate and compatible land uses which is resilient to shifts and changes in the economy, real estate market and consumer demand, and responds to a changing tax base. Another aspect of the growth strategy is the designation of significant portions of the MOAA as a Development Reserve. This is land reserved for an extended, longer-term growth horizon beyond 2040 and the time horizon of this Comprehensive Plan. However, some development in the MOAA is likely to occur before 2040 and Monticello should adjust its land use policies and decision- making with some measure of flexibility to accommodate new development proposals as they occur. As long as development proposals meet the overarching land use planning goals presented in this Comprehensive Plan, an amendment to the Plan is the proper procedure for consideration of such projects. Consideration for projects in the MOAA and annexation requests will follow the current annexation agreement parameters, or any future amendments to the agreement. Growth and development within the MOAA would naturally follow the existing roadway network and its potential for expansion as well as the availability of utility infrastructure, specifically sewer and water lines provided as City services. Specific projects will require analysis of utility and infrastructure needs, roadway network capacity, as well as land use compatibility. Given the MOAA’s existing land area and its growth potential, its full development build-out would occur over a much longer time period, extending beyond the 20-year timeline of this plan.

Two land uses, Estate Residential and Low-Density Residential, will guide new single-family residential neighborhoods in the City. By 2040, the Comprehensive Plan envisions low density single-family uses and conservation style development in these areas of the City and contiguous to the MOAA. Generally, an average density of 4 housing units per acre characterizes single-family neighborhoods but these areas could likely be developed between 3-6 units per acre depending on utility infrastructure, sensitive natural resources, conservation style development, developer preferences and project specifics. Other types of single-family housing styles, including small-lot development and attached single-family homes is encouraged in this and other residential land use designations. DEVELOPMENT RESERVE A Development Reserve land use designation applies to a significant portion of the Monticello Orderly Annexation Area (MOAA). The Development Reserve includes 3,100 acres on the Future Land Use Map. The purpose of this designation is to serve as a growth reserve that maintains lands for agricultural, rural residential or other similar permitted uses until such time those lands are developed for other uses. Future uses could include residential, commercial or industrial development. As described previously, the Development Reserve is a long-term tertiary growth objective for the City. Future development and change of use would require a Comprehensive Plan amendment. RESIDENTIAL DESIGNATIONS Monticello has approximately 3,484 acres of land currently used for residential purposes. The majority of this land, 3,127 acres or roughly 90%, is developed with single-family homes. The remaining 357 acres accommodates a limited variety of attached single- and multi-family housing types, including townhomes, duplexes, multi-story apartment buildings, and manufactured homes. There are approximately 4,496 acres of land designated for residential use on the Future Land Use Map, including 3,374 acres for single-family homes and 1,122 acres for a variety of mixed and multi-family style housing types. This acreage is projected to accommodate the existing uses and future anticipated housing needs in the City over the next twenty years consistent with the Primary Growth Strategy. This acreage does not include the 49 acres of Downtown Mixed- Use and 174 acres of Commercial/Residential Flex (both described in the following section on commercial land use) which also have potential to contain future residential development. The Future Land Use Plan establishes six different residential designations to achieve a variety of housing and neighborhood character that differ between housing type, scale and form, and density. Three designations allow and encourage a range of new single-family, multi-family and mixed housing types and densities. The purpose of the residential designations is to characterize and preserve neighborhoods, promote a range of housing types and housing stock diversity, continue to provide areas for single-family homes, and encourage the infill development of small-lot single-family homes, townhomes, condominiums, senior housing and mixed or alternative styles of multi-family development.

The existing neighborhoods surrounding and emanating from the downtown are designated as Mixed Neighborhood to recognize this area’s potential for additional density and mixed housing types with neighborhood scaled commercial uses and services. Commercial uses are considered minor and are only intended for small, neighborhood serving uses. They should only be located on minor arterials or higher street classification. There may be other locations appropriate for these designations. A smaller Traditional Neighborhood designation has been applied to portions of the riverfront and properties along River Street and Broadway Avenue where the street network and land parcels similar to older, traditional neighborhoods with residential-scaled streets, sidewalks, large street trees and mature housing stock. Mixed-Density Residential A Mixed-Density Residential designation encourages a wide range of housing types, densities and residential development between 8-25 dwelling units per acre. This designation applies primarily along the 7th Street corridor, south along State Highway 25, and other pockets of the City where higher densities and mixed housing types is encouraged, such as near the Downtown. The broad density range promotes a wide variety of housing types including small lot single-family, apartments, condominiums, and townhomes. This designation may be allowed in proximity to other medium to high density residential areas, however the nature and concentration of existing residential uses shall be carefully considered to avoid an over concentration of these uses. For example, there may be some locations more appropriate for small-lot single family development, and others where a four-story multi-family building is the best choice. This will be determined by the parcel size, surrounding land uses, and the existing form and scale of the neighborhood. In locations where the Mixed-Density Residential designation is applied adjacent to the low-density residential uses, new residential development should be of similar mass, scale and architectural character to existing neighborhoods. Manufactured Home Two manufactured home neighborhoods exist in Monticello. These include the West Side Park and River Terrace along River Street and Kjellberg’s Manufactured Home Park along State Highway 25 in the southern part of the City. The intent of the designation is to recognize and maintain these neighborhoods as locations for manufactured housing types. The Missing Middle Housing consists of multi- unit housing types such as duplexes, fourplexes, bungalow courts, and mansion apartments no bigger than a large house, These housing types are often integrated into blocks with primarily single-family homes, provide diverse housing choices and generate enough density to support transit and locally-serving commercial amenities. Although many of these are a common feature in pre-war building stocks, these housing types have become much less common. Source: Opticos Design, Inc. MISSING MIDDLE HOUSING TYPES RANGES MONTICELLO 2040 VISION + PLAN 17 Conservation Subdivision Design Conservation subdivisions are characterized by clustered style development in proximity to natural open spaces and resources areas. These types of neighborhoods are appropriate in any land use designation located close to natural resources. Conservation focused residential neighborhoods would be appropriate in the eastern and southern portions of the city where there are a high concentration of lakes, wetlands and valuable open space resources. Conservation style development is also appropriate in the Northwest Study Area where wetlands and woodlands exist. Conservation design is typically implemented through the City’s zoning and subdivision codes. The City will need to create and adopt these ordinances to properly implement this design style. Conservation subdivision design typically includes the following: • Clustered development patterns that concentrates development in one area to protect natural resources in another area. • Natural drainage features and ‘green infrastructure’ measures, such as bioswales and biofiltration. • Safe and inviting pedestrian paths and trails. • Designated areas for community gardens and urban agriculture. • Housing development oriented to maximize use of solar energy, and include design styles that promote passive lighting, heating, and cooling. • Small and medium sized park-like open spaces.

Density in these areas generally ranges from 4 to 8 units per acre, corresponding to site area allowances of 6,000 to 10,000 square feet per unit. While a mix of housing types is encouraged, these areas retain the basic character of single-family neighborhoods, such as single-family homes, front and rear yards, driveways, and attached or detached garages. Other compatible uses, such as schools, nursing homes, private parks and religious facilities may also locate in this designation. • Density - 4-8 units/acre (Low-Density Residential) • Height - 1-2 stories • Lot Area - 6,000-10,000 sq. ft. per unit LOT PATTERN VISUAL EXAMPLE 2018 Correlating Zoning DistrictZONING INFORMATION 2018 Correlating Zoning District R-1 Single-Family Residence District R-2 Single and Two-Family Residence District T-N Traditional Neighborhood MONTICELLO 2040 VISION + PLAN 31 Primary Mode Vehicular (slow speeds) Secondary Mode Pedestrian paths and trails Bicycle facilities and parking Transit or Shuttle Service MOBILITY DEVELOPMENT FORM MIXED NEIGHBORHOOD (MN) The Mixed Neighborhood designation applies to areas of the City intended for mixed land use types including single-family detached housing, duplexes, townhomes, and medium-density multi-family buildings as well as small scale commercial uses. Residential densities in these areas generally range between 8 and 12 units per acre, corresponding to site area allowances of 3,500-5,400 square feet per unit. These areas are residential in character but could also have neighborhood serving commercial uses that provide for the sale of goods and services generally needed on a day-to-day basis. The character of these areas is defined by the limited scale of businesses operating in these designations and may include local services, offices, small-scale retail stores and childcare centers. Other compatible uses, such as schools, nursing homes, fraternal organizations, private parks and religious facilities may also locate in this designation. • Density - 8-12 units/acre (Low-Mid Density Residential) • Height - 1-2 stories • Lot Area - 3,500-5,400 sq. ft. per unit VISUAL EXAMPLE LOT PATTERN 2018 Correlating Zoning DistrictZONING INFORMATION 2018 Correlating Zoning District TN Traditional Neighborhood District R-2 Single and Two Family Residence District R-3 Medium Density Residential District B-1 Neighborhood Business DistrictCommercial • Small Scale Office/ Retail • Daycare Centers • Personal Service LAND USE MIX Residential • Single-Family Residential • Two-Family Residential • Multi-Family Residential • Senior Living Facility Public/institutional • Schools Recreational • Parks/Playgrounds Open Space • Sensitive Habitat LAND USE, GROWTH AND ORDERLY ANNEXATION 32 MIXED-DENSITY RESIDENTIAL (MDR) The Mixed-Density Residential designation applies to areas of the City where mixed housing types and medium to high density housing are appropriate. Housing types could include attached housing such as apartments, townhomes, condominiums and multi-family buildings. It may also includes areas appropriate for small-lot single-family homes and cottage homes. Densities generally range between 8 to 25 units per acres corresponding to site area allowances of 1,700-5,000 square feet per unit. Allowed density is dependent on adjacent land uses, existing building form and character and other factors. Higher densities are permitted at the discretion of the City. These areas have mixed housing types and reflect a denser, more urban environment. Buildings in these areas are generally between two to five stories and may have surface parking. Other compatible uses, such as schools, nursing homes, parks and religious facilities may also locate in this designation.

This Study Area represents an ideal residential growth location given available land, its proximity to existing City services, and the amenity and natural open space buffer of Bertram Chain of Lakes Regional Park. As growth occurs, a new school campus is likely to be needed. The extension of School Boulevard to 90th Street NE will also provide greater access to this area. A new school campus could be located in close to proximity to Bertram, one possibility is near the School Boulevard extension to serve as a western anchor and complement the existing High School campus on the eastern end of School Boulevard. It is anticipated that single-family and mixed-residential neighborhoods would fill in around this school and create a new western enclave in Monticello. Small locally-serving commercial uses could also be located in this area to provide nearby goods and services and establish the area as a complete neighborhood unit. Neighborhood scale parks and open spaces would also be included as part of new developments. Given the amount of vacant land and close proximity to open space amenities, this area has the potential to become a premier residential neighborhood within Monticello. Prior to any proposed development, the extension of utilities, the transportation network and resources conservation priorities will need to be discussed and addressed. Residential Growth Residential development is projected in this area over time as a primary or secondary growth area, as a result of proximity to utilities, transportation improvements or other factors. Future development may include a range of housing types and mixed densities consistent with the Mixed Neighborhood designation, such as small-lot single family homes, attached townhomes and traditional single-family units. Some limited, small-scale commercial retail, service, and institutional uses can also be expected to serve this growth. New School A new school site has been identified as a potential need with continued growth and development of the City. A new school or educational campus within this Study Area would serve as a community center and focus of activity for the new neighborhood. The extension of School Boulevard and new roadways will better define potential location for a school. Ultimately, the School District will determine the need and location for a new school(s) based upon its facility planning needs. Resource Conservation Future development in East Bertram should also address natural resource conservation needs. Some natural resource areas may provide buffers or screening to adjacent land uses and could be designed as an integral part of the development as an amenity or passive park feature. Conservation style development techniques should be utilized whenever appropriate. Transportation/Connectivity The extension of School Boulevard is a primary transportation improvement priority for this area. It is expected that this extension would link to 90th Street NE. A detailed transportation study including a proposed roadway network and new intersections will be required for future development. Trails and related facilities are an important consideration and should be extended to connect Bertram Chain of Lakes with these new neighborhoods and other parts of Monticello. Utilities/Infrastructure Accommodating existing regional-scale utility infrastructure, while also extending local utilities are both important considerations in facilitating new development. Appropriately sized utility infrastructure is a critical component for long term capital planning and serving this new development. Green infrastructure techniques, such as bioswales, bioretention and biofiltration, to manage stormwater runoff should be applied to all new development in this study area. New housing and neighborhoods should take on a sustainable approach to land planning and development. Ideally, a master plan for the East Bertram Study Area would guide phased development over time as market demand for residential and other uses evolve over time. A comprehensive utility and infrastructure plan and consistency with the MOAA Agreement will also be needed when proposed development and annexation requests come forward. Utilization of existing power line easements should also be considered as opportunities for trails, wildlife corridors, and buffer areas between divergent land uses.

It provides more detail in consideration of other factors likely to impact future development. This area is considered a long term growth objective for the city. Although opportunities should always be pursued. Additional detailed study will be necessary prior to or concurrent with any development proposals. Key Factors Existing Utility Easements – The existing overhead power lines present a major impediment to development within the area. The approach shown in this framework prioritizes the alignment of new streets, trails, and buffers along the easements in order to maximize contiguous tracts for development and enable a more cohesive neighborhood fabric. The easements should be used for trail/greenway corridors. Road Network – Existing collector streets have been extended to help create a connected block and street network that is well integrated with the rest of the City. Streetscape design will define the character of these new areas of the City and is an important consideration. Educational Campus – The inclusion of a site that is suitable for a future school or campus is a key consideration for future planning. The site shown is approximately 70 acres. Commercial Opportunity Sites – Several sites have been identified that may have increased viability for neighborhood-serving retail, service, and/or commercial uses. Conservation Neighborhoods – Conservation neighborhoods may be appropriate in the western portions of the study area as a way to help manage growth and provide a suitable transition to adjacent natural areas to the west.
