Resolution approving the Final Plat of Snell Addition; Lots 3, 4, and 5, Block 1, Menard Addition; except a portion of Lot 5, Block 1 (1900 and 1990 Madison Avenue); by request of Snell Real Estate, LLC.
Recommendation/Action(s):
At the May 27, 2026, meeting, the Planning Commission recommended approval of the final plat.
Summary:
Snell Real Estate, LLC, is requesting a final plat review of Snell Addition. The subject properties are described as Lots 3, 4, and 5, Block 1, Menard Addition; except a portion of Lot 5, Block 1 (1900 and 1990 Madison Avenue). The City Council reviewed and approved the preliminary plat on April 13, 2026.
The applicant is seeking a final plat review for Snell Addition, a 10.23 acre subdivision. The intent of the replat is to amend the existing property lines of the three current parcels to better coincide with the location of current structures. The plat consists of one block that contains two lots: Lot 1, which is 9.15 acres that contains the current dealership building and parking lot areas, and Lot 2, which is 1.07 acres that contains the current car wash structure and associated areas.
Standard city and private utility easements in conformance with Mankato City Code Chapter 10 have been provided where feasible.
A private access agreement has been provided allowing for continued vehicle access from Haefner Drive to the dealership and car wash properties. The intent of this easement is to ensure continuous private access for both proposed lots if the lots were to ever be sold and operated on a separate basis. The noted easement is 30 feet across and centered on the proposed property line between lots 1 and 2, so that a 15-foot easement is maintained on each side of the property line. The access easement location is not intended to correspond with any physical improvements to the property, as the easement lines up with the existing private driveway surfaces.
