2006 Parks, Trails and Open Space Plan - City of Lakeville

The staged MUSA expansions are proposed to build on existing development patterns,
in-place sanitary sewer and roadway infrastructure. The sequencing of the MUSA
staging is intended to postpone costly investments in new utility infrastructure until full
utilization of the existing utilities is achieved.
2020 Land Use
Map 4 shows the 1998 Comprehensive Plan’s 2020 Land Use Plan which illustrates
land uses planned within the proposed MUSA expansion areas. The 2020 Land Use
Plan works in conjunction with the MUSA staging plan to determine the timing and
pattern of development that will occur in Lakeville. While the Comprehensive Land Use
Plan illustrates a future 2020 land use pattern, all land lying outside the MUSA is
restricted to rural development patterns. The following table represents the 2020 total
land use breakdown based on the Proposed 2020 Land Use Plan. The 2020 Land Use
Plan represents general development patterns. As such, the acreage illustrated in the
following table will likely need to be adjusted in future years. The 2008 Comprehensive
Plan update will involve reconsideration of the guided land uses and will likely establish
future urban land uses for the Urban Reserve Area affecting the numbers below.

The park land area in Table 3 represents a rough estimate of Lakeville park land guided for
development in 1998 by the 2020 Land Use Plan when the most recent major update of the
City’s Comprehensive Plan was adopted. A more detailed inventory of the City parks and
conservation areas is outlined in Chapter 6, which identifies the total area of existing City park
land as 1,607.18 acres (6.6% of total land areas) which provides 495.45 acres (2.0% of total
land area) of active usable park land.
