Aanenson: Before you begin Chairman and members of the Planning Commission, again I would remind you within your purview is what we're to do with the application is the site plan review. There's actually 3 actions with that for the specialty retail, site plan review, PUD amendment and a subdivision so again any comments on merits of the liquor license is outside of your purview. Again we ask that anybody that has comments on that. Some people have submitted things in writing which we forwarded to you but we're, it's also out of your jurisdiction or purview to comment on that so we would be forwarding those to the City Council SCANNED 0 0 Chanhassen Planning Commission — July 7, 2015 so anybody that wants to speak on that we would certainly recommend that you attend the City Council meeting on the 27th and with that I'll turn it over to Sharmeen to make a presentation. A] -Jaffa Chairman Aller, members of the Planning Commission. The site that we are looking at today is located at the northwest corner of Lake Drive and Main Street. It is within the development of Villages on the Ponds which is a mixed use development encompassing residential, institutional, as well as commercial developments. At this point I will turn it over to Kate Aanenson, the Community Development Director to provide background and history on this development and when she's done with that part of it we will look specifically at the specialty retail development proposal. Aanenson: Thank you. Because there's some new planning commissioners I thought I'd just give a brief background of Villages on the Ponds because this is a unique sitting. So in 1995 we started the process of putting together Villages on the Pond. At that time St. Hubert's Church was looking for some property to provide for an institutional use and they were looking across the street, that 66 acres and so the City had some goals. The developer at that time had some goals and we ventured forth on working together to do a new urbanism project which at the time was pretty unique. We were one of the fust communities to go through the Livable Communities at the time through the Met Council. We actually did a horizontal/vertical mix and there's shared parking throughout this whole project so that's one of the things that I wanted to explain to you. And also we have private streets in this development. One of the unique attributes of this is that there's parking on street which we don't have in other developments and you'll see this with this application too, there's opportunities for shared parking and on street parking so in order to do that the engineering department recommended that they be private streets so they maintain internally their own streets except there's a public loop that goes through that the City does maintain so we've looked at institutional uses. Retail uses as a core component and then residential and one of the first ones to go in was the apartments across 101. The Powers Ridge Apartments and then kind of the core was St. Hubert's Church so we've been adding to that. We've actually made very few amendments to this which is kind of hard to believe when we put this together in 1995 kind of looking for, we certainly saw there was components that were important. We always saw something unique of kind of a boutique grocery store which is something that came in and then some of the other supporting things such as Presbyterian Homes and opportunities for residents that live within there also to take advantage of you know shopping within and walking so there's only one fast food drive thru in that which the staff recommended but the council recommended approval for that but there's only one drive thru restaurant in there. Otherwise it is a unique development so again going back from 1985 to '96 this also had an Environmental Assessment document on it so when we go through each project we measure to make sure that we're staying within the industrial commercial institutional quadrants and then checking for the parking and as you see in the staff report tonight we'll also share with you kind of that tabulation of parking. Those are all the things that we look at with each project that goes forward. So again we created this master PUD which was a couple, a year, year and a half worth of work. Again the design standards the uses, those are all part of the PUD so this use in itself, the 20,000 square foot was one of the things that we said was the maximum to meet within this PUD because we wanted these to be kind of more smaller and not big box type uses so that was the goal on this. And that they also be more 2 0 0 Chanhassen Planning Commission — July 7, 2015 highly articulated for this district so with that just wanted to give you that background and how that all works and I'll tum it back over to Sharmeen. Aller: Thank you. Al-Jaff: Thank you Kate. Briefly so the application before you today is consists of three components. The first one is a subdivision to replat an outlot into a lot and an outlot, there is a site plan for a 19,909 square foot retail building and then a planned unit development amendment to the sign criteria as far as the location of the individual letters as well as the height of each individual letter. This application is going to follow the exact same process that we have gone through in the past since 1995 as each building comes in. So far we've had 12 buildings built within Villages on the Pond. Those include retail, residential as well as institutional buildings. So again this application before you is going to follow that exact same process. One of the components of the overall development was, and I apologize if I repeat a few things that Kate already went through. One of the components that was studied with the overall development and through the environmental assessment worksheet for this development was parking. It was intended to always have shared parking and anything that you see on this overall plan for Villages on the Ponds that is highlighted in yellow is shared parking. I need to point out that there are a few buildings, specifically the residential as well as the community bank that has underground parking. Staff has not included those numbers with the overall calculations. The overall development is required to provide 1,631 parking spaces. They have provided 1,712. So the site plan that is before you, and that's, that will be the first item that we will cover is for a 19,909 square foot retail building. As part of looking at this development and because this is a planned unit development, this site has to comply with the ordinance requirements for Villages on the Ponds. One of the things that they are required to do is not to exceed 70 percent hard surface coverage. Again this is a planned unit development. Whenever we have this type of development, hard surface coverage is calculated over the entire development of Villages on the Pond rather than on each individual site and when this development was approved the City ensured that there was a permanent open space that exceeded 30 percent. The reality is the open space for this overall development exceeds 45 percent. The majority of the parking is located west of the building. The architecture of the building and the design is attractive. It is proposed to be constructed of high quality materials that are complimentary to the surrounding buildings. They include rock face block. Accent block. Concrete utility. There are awnings above all of the, all of the windows with the exception of specifically the ones that are located next to the loading dock and the only reason for that is to ensure this is the elevation where the loading dock is going to be located and it is to avoid any accidents as pick up trucks are backing up. All elevations that can be viewed by the public on all four sides have received equal level of attention. We need to point out that we worked with the applicant for a long time and they have truly cooperated with the City. They have revised the design and basically met the direction that staff asked them to. One of the things that we needed to show you is there is a green wall that is being introduced along the south elevation of the site. All of the, there are areas where they could not put in windows so they put spanrow windows on the building. The roof line there is enough movement and there are pitched elements. It's a building that meets all of the design criteria. The lights that are proposed on the building are shielded. They meet ordinance requirements. Shoe boxes will be used in the parking lot and again shielded fixtures in, on the building itself. One of the things that the PUD recommended was the use of light fixtures on the 0 Chanhassen Planning Commission — July 7, 2015 building to minimize the number of parking lot lights and that's exactly what they are doing. The second item that we need to address is signage on the building. The applicant is requesting signage on all four sides of the building which is permitted under the planned unit development. They are also requesting the signage to be located higher than 20 feet above the ground elevation and this is what staff will explain in a moment. Also the signage facing the north and the west elevation, they are requesting that the letters be larger than 30 inches. The limit by ordinance in this planned unit development is 30 inches. So the one thing that we need to also talk about as far as background on this area is the fact that this development when it was first looked at and studied it was divided into four sectors and the ordinances that govern this development were written around those four sectors. They took those sectors into consideration. So Sector 1 which is where this development is located is a mixed use of commercial and residential. Sector 2, which abuts Highway 101 as well as Highway 5 is highway exposure type of development. And then Sector 3 is institutional, which is where you see St. Hubert's and 4 is strictly residential which is the Lake Susan Apartments. So as I mentioned we've got the 4 sectors. When the sign criteria for Sector 2 was written it allowed them to put up signage that was higher, taller than 20 feet and the individual signs, the individual letters within Sector 2 could exceed 30 inches. As staff started looking at Sector 1 and how it compares to Sector 2, specifically when it came to the signage, and looking at previous requests that have come before the City on previous applications on that specific site requesting the exact same variance. Requesting letters that were planed higher than 20 feet above the ground and the size of the letter being taller, we started asking why is this happening and what was it that happened before when we first looked at this development that we didn't maybe notice at the time. So what we found they did have in common is this site did have exposure to Highway 101. There's nothing blocking that exposure to Highway 101 or Highway 5. You've got that view that continues to those two elevations. In those two directions. The distance is 550 feet from Highway 5. It is 620 from Highway 101. As mentioned earlier, oh initially they came in. They requested a variance and we said rather than applying for a variance, which the City has granted in the past on previous applications, let's fix the planned unit development and amend it so that anything that we do is going to apply to everyone within this development rather than one individual building. And based on that staff is recommending only the north and west elevations within Sector 1 to be allowed to go above the 20 feet. But in addition to that rather than just saying let them go higher as well as larger letters those, we also added a line that ensures the signage is actually complimenting the architecture of the building. The intent is not to have a specific portion of an architectural feature of the building extending higher than the rest of the building just to advertise the signage. The intent is to have the signage compliment the architecture of the building. And if you look at this building, if you look at this building there is an EIFS band around the entire upper level of the building. The top of the building. It's framing it and in all honesty this is where the signage belongs. They can meet ordinance requirements. The design of the building will be compromised if you lower the signage. It is staff's opinion that the location of the proposed signage will compliment the design. Aanenson: And I just want to add a couple more things to that. So they came in with the variance application as Ms. Al-Jaff has stated that in the previous application for specialty grocery the Planning Commission, as did the City Council approved that variance so in that variance situation you're approving just that one use so instead of doing that we said let's put everybody in that sector and treat them equally so anybody else in that same situation. What we 4 0 0 Chanhassen Planning Commission — July 7, 2015 learned from our previous experience with the Children's Learning Adventure, when you sometimes have exaggerated architectural elements to accomplish your sign so in this circumstance we put language in this PUD that you wouldn't have that so it's really more integral to it. So what we're doing is instead of just treating this with a variance we're saying everybody in this same sector would get that same treatment. Al-Jaff: And staff is recommending approval of this planned unit development amendment. The ordinance that would allow this change. The final request is for replat of an outlot into a lot and an outlot. The lot is going to house the building. The retail building and the outlot will contain some parking as well as private streets. Staff is recommending approval of this application including the preliminary plat, planned unit development and site plan request and I'll be happy to answer any questions the Planning Commission may have. Aller: Any questions at this time? Commissioner Weick. Weick: Yeah, just a point of clarification moving backwards. Why create the Outlot A and not just have one lot? Is there a reason for that? Al-Jaff: The outlot, whenever you have private streets, there is an option of either having them within an easement or on, within an outlot. In this case we... Aanenson: They're common to the rest of the HOA. There's a HOA that governs everything in that association so we've kept that all, except for the public streets that we manage. Weick: Thank you. Aller: Commissioner Madsen. Madsen: I have a question about traffic flow and what affect would this anticipated traffic increase have on busy intersections nearby. For example the Lake Drive and 101 intersection on the west side and then the Lake Drive intersection on the east side near by the Marathon gas station. Fauske: If I may answer that question. A detailed traffic analysis was not completed with this development because the use was compatible with what the planned unit development had envisioned for the area. Certainly I think the applicant might be able to speak in greater detail as far as what kind of traffic they anticipate they would capture. Are they getting folks that are already on the roadway and just will stop in on their way to pick up something from their stores or is it a destination? We don't feel that there's any, that there would be any negative impacts to those intersections but we will monitor that and you know residents are good about letting us know if there's an issue and we can address that at the time if need be. Madsen: Okay, thank you. Aller: Commissioner Tietz. 0 0 Chanhassen Planning Commission — July 7, 2015 Tietz: Yeah, question regarding the parking that would be on Outlot A across from Houlihan's. South of Houlihan's and east of Bookoo. Is that then the responsibility of the developer to build and construct because that's in that private road zone? A]-Jaff: It is intended to be built as part of this. Tietz: Of the development. A]-Jaff: Development, correct. Aller: Would the HOA maintain? Aanenson: Correct. The private streets, that's correct. Aller: With the lighting, has there been any indication that there would be an impact to safety at all? Is there any concern from the sheriff's department? Fauske: Not that we've been made aware of Chairman Aller. Aller: Otherwise the lighting meets our codes. 90 degree shielded. The amount of parking that was provided has always been the intent so we're exceeding that right now with the shared parking. Al-Jaff: That's correct. Aller: The impact on grading and drainage, do we have a SWPPP plan? Aanenson: Yes, we had that in the staff report. The grading and drainage. It's relatively flat. Did you want to comment on the drainage? How they're managing that. Fauske: Just an additional comment to add to that Kate. Originally the site, the proposed site development included some underground parking so if you look on the aerial on page 4 of the staff report. Or actually on page 2 as well, it appears as though there's a pond on the site and that's simply rain water that went into the excavated area. The area that was excavated for underground parking. It's not a jurisdictional wetland. It wasn't intended to be, it was not intended to be a stormwater management pond. It was simply the low area that they had graded in anticipation of the site development that never came to fruition. Aller: And it's my understanding from the report that the proposed maximum rate of runoff will actually decrease for the entire area as a result of what has been proposed. Fauske: Yes. From the original PUD approval the rules for stormwater management have changed significantly in 20 years and as a development comes through site plan approval and subdivision they are required to meet the current standards for stormwater management and on this site what the applicant has proposed is some pervious pavement within the parking area and then an underground system in order to meet the requirements of the City. And then they will 0 0 Chanhassen Planning Commission — July 7, 2015 also work with the watershed district to ensure that they meet the watershed district requirements as well. Tietz: Alyson are there examples here in the city where pervious paving has been used and the systems have been effective? Fauske: Yes, actually the public works site has some porous pavement in the parking area just to the south of the building. And then in the 2014 street project we also had a porous pavement parking lot next to Bandimere Park. The west, pardon me. The east side of Bandimere Park. It's not a fully functional area at this time but we do have some examples where. Tietz: So we have standards that will be enforced and applied to this project? Fauske: Yes. There's an industry standard within the surface water management community with, as far as void space and it has to infiltrate at a certain rate and there's, we do have equipment that can measure those quantities. Aller: Then with the modification of the PUD what we're doing is leveling the playing field basically for anyone else that's in that fust phase or phase 1. Aanenson: That's correct. Aller: So anyone that wants to modify, as long as it doesn't, it meets all the criteria of the new PUD requirements can do so at this time without coming in and asking for a variance. Aanenson: That's correct. Aller: Any additional questions at this time? Hearing none we'll ask the applicant to come forward if they desire to do so and make a presentation. Welcome sir. State your name and address and representational capacity please. David Carland: Good evening commissioners. My name is David Carland. I'm President of Venture Pass Partners. Our corporate address is 19620 Waterford Court in Shorewood and with me tonight I have Jim Ottenstein and Randy Rauwerdink, also of Venture Pass Partners. This is a re -tooled version of the Traders Joe specialty grocer site plan that the Planning Commission and City Council approved last October. If you recall that was 14,000 square foot grocery building along with 8,000 square feet of associated strip so in terms of overall square footage it's very close to what was approved previously. You know unfortunately and you know for some complex reasons we weren't able to put that together and this is kind of the reincarnation for lack of a better term of that. Of that project which we're of course excited about. We worked long and hard with staff and we're happy with the finished product and I guess we thank them for the inspiration they gave us. At the end of the day you know for not a whole lot of cost the client thinks the building, it's an improved building. We think it's an improved building and city staff does as well so we were happy to go through that process with the City. We believe that the project meets all the zoning ordinances. We believe we meet all the design guidelines. We've, you know we've submitted this application as a specialty retail building and the building could 0 Chanhassen Planning Commission — July 7, 2015 be a clothing store. Could be a pet supply store. Could be sporting goods or anything that's a permitted use within the zoning district including a liquor store because there's a simultaneous application for the same property address for Total Wine we thought that it would be forth coming and above board at least in our planning application to identify that as our contemplated tenant which it is indeed Total Wine and More is the contemplated tenant for the project. In terms of parking they generally, for this size of a store, which is significantly smaller than other stores that they've done in the Twin Cities. This is the first store that's a new construction ground up. The other stores have been you know ones that they've inherited from existing shopping centers and previous users. They feel like 80 parking spots would be adequate. By code we're providing 100 but we're also, if you count the additional stalls that we're providing on the outlot we're providing 158 so we're actually adding 58 overall parking spots for use within the overall development. I think that's a good overview. I was going to have Randy who handles our architecture just give you a, maybe just some brief bullet points on some of the architectural enhancements we've made to the project if that's appropriate. Aller: Thank you. Randy Rauwerdink: Thank you Dave. Randy Rauwerdink with Venture Pass Partners. I'll reiterate what Dave said. We worked very closely with Sbarmeen and with our design team from Tushie Montgomery Architects and Sambatek Engineering and it kind of turned into a bit of a design sharret but a very successful one and product that we're very pleased with. Keeping in mind all of the articulation requirements and sloped roof and glass requirements I think we've put together a very attractive building and a very pronounced protruding brick entrance element. Arched, transom glass over the entrance. Featured towers on the comers. EIFS insets and arch work. Multiple different details of protruding awnings both in fabric and standing seam metal. Metal hipped roofs. A lot of architectural interest in terms of texture through pigmented burnish block. Rock faced block. Full brick. EIFS. The metal awnings we discussed. Store front and windows on all four elevations. Details in the cornice work. I think just a lot of very nice detailing that's consistent on four sides of the building. We also enhance that with vertical landscaping and strategic screening areas, be the loading docks. The trash areas. Trellis roofs over the trash area. Sharmeen mentioned a little bit our, kind of that eco mesh growing or living wall. Just a large curved element on Main Street that's covered with clematis, flowering vines and just adds additional articulation. And along with bike parking and benches and then back to the watershed issue, that whole parking lot. Following up on the engineer comments here. Really all of the parking stall bays within the interior parking field are all pervious pavers. Contemplated as pavers as opposed to pavement and that's kind of a direct result of our coordination with Riley -Purgatory watershed district. Very stringent requirements that are really new to 2015 kind of that haven't been, haven't been felt by probably any other parcel in this development today. What's unique about this parking lot is that entire structure underneath our parking field is about a 3 foot deep section of, it's a heavy rock. Basically 40 percent void space that's providing a lot of the capacity given soils that aren't really conducive to infiltration within this development. That's all laden with a serpentine of perforated drain tile and some kind of proprietary contact type filter structures so there's a lot of effort. Unfortunately a lot of expense and money into that parking field but that's what it took to comply with the Riley -Purgatory requirements. And then just following up on the parking again. You know obviously the outlot is Pond Promenade. A road to the north and to the west with extensions of the private road 0 0 Chanhassen Planning Commission — July 7, 2015 which are bearing almost 70 new improved parking stalls in addition to the 80 plus that we have interior to the parking field so those are really I would say to the benefit of all of those parcels around us and far exceeding what had to be there so yeah Pond Promenade is fully improved surface. Curb and gutter. All new parking in addition to all the improvements to the interior of our lot. I think that's probably the best highlight. I just want to again thank Sharmeen for her help and for the cooperation that we had with her and our architects on pulling this together. Aller: Great, thank you sir. Aanenson: I just want to add one comment just for some of the new Planning Commissioners that the use of sparrow glass. I just want to, because sometimes people don't always see where we have a lot of it around town. It's actually quite a bit of it's on Houlihan's. We have it in Target. Office Max on West 7e Street. There's quite a bit there and I would say probably another user that has a security issue would be the two more recent Walgreen's also has quite a bit. The one up on Highway 7 and the one right downtown also has quite a bit of use of the spanrow glass too so it's an opportunity to get the fenestration that we required and then also adapt to a user that has, whether it's freezer space or an example of the restaurants where they have cold storage or Walgreen's that has pharmaceutical areas that they want secure, it is an opportunity to meet our ordinance and still get an attractive building so. We've also learned that sparrow glass is different qualities and grades and we've got ten really good at making sure we see samples of those before they go on too. Aller: Any additional questions at this time? Okay, hearing none we'll open the public hearing portion of this matter so anyone wishing to come forward can do so at this time. You can step forward to the podium and state your name and address sir and your position either for or against the item or a comment. Ray Schenk: Thank you. My name's Ray Schenk. I live at 1130 Dove Court. Aller: Welcome Mr. Schenk. Ray Schenk: I'm a resident of Chanhassen for 22 years and I'd like to thank staff. They seem to represented real well what this development was originally intended to do. Some of the things I remember back when it was first up is that it was going to have this old time feeling like you were in a downtown area. Kind of small town where you'd have apartments upstairs and a shop down below and I don't think we've fulfilled any of those dreams yet. We have some big nice apartments. Some senior living which is really nice. You know I think those are some nice things there but one of my least favorite places to go is over in that area because it's hard to park. The traffic is not so good. The radiuses on all the comers are much too small. The roads are very narrow. I feel like it will be the same of situation that the Cub Foods where the loading dock has this huge, big concrete post so that the trucks don't hit it but the radius was never big enough for them to make the turn so you put a post and rocks and they get pushed out of the way by the semi's and there's just not good access and then if you're coming down the main part and you make your right hand tum to get out, you always wind up hitting the curb. You just see, it's always covered with people's tire marks because the radiuses aren't right. This development has many, many features just like that. The on street parking is very difficult when it's parallel and 0 0 0 Chanhassen Planning Commission — July 7, 2015 very tight together and I don't think that was the original intent when we went through and did the planning years ago. I think you know with some different buildings that got put in I think some of that intent has gone away and I think for people that have been in town a long time, we've had a lot of arguments about signage and unfairness about signage so I'm a member of Family of Christ and when they asked for a signage variance they were denied. I know other businesses have asked for signs on multiple sides of the building and have been denied. I would encourage not to have multiple sides on buildings of signage and tall signs and big lights. I don't like that look. I don't think it's fitting of our community. I don't think it fits what we try to portray and why we're picked as a great place to live every, you know many times in magazines and things. I mean we've done a really good job of planning. I don't think we should change that. I don't think we should go for bigger signs and more lights. Less lights. Smaller signs. Smaller buildings. More parking. Bigger radiuses on comers and wider streets so it's easier to go. If you look at the way this is built, as you drive through all the sight lines changed. It's made so that you'd park your car and you'd walk through this area and people don't do that. This isn't a big store like this won't make that happen. It's, I just don't see that it is what the vision was. I know it fits the numbers and I know they're being good about that and they're really watching careful and doing a good accurate job but it wasn't the original intent and I don't think that it should continue on and I definitely don't want any changes on the signage. I just think that's just totally wrong and unfair to any other business in this town that's wanted that request. Parking. Added parking spots that you're talking about right now are gravel by Houlihan's and they're full. I drove there before I came here tonight and they're all full. We're not adding extra parking. We're improving it. It's already very, very busy over there. There's one spot by Bookoo Bikes that was open. There were 4 spots in that same area and Houlihan's parking lot was pretty full. Very full actually and then you know down the sides and we don't have these other new buildings that are going to have people and traffic to even gauge how much that is. It may be meeting our numbers but it isn't really meeting the use and the intent of what's happening. We're overwhelmed already. I just, that's kind of the way I see it and it's not my favorite place to go. Thank you. Aller: Thank you. Any additional individuals wishing to come forward. Please state your name and address for the record. Brian Burdick: Good evening everyone. Brian Burdick, Burdick Properties, 600 Market Street, Chanhassen. Glad to be here this evening. I have to say I think the gentleman that just spoke did a really excellent job. I hope that all of you will really think about that. He raised some many very valid concerns. I'm sure Total Wine runs a very good operation. I do believe that city staff has gone to a lot of detail and done a nice job with the planning. I don't doubt that. That's fine but this is not a good location for a huge 20,000 square foot, big box liquor store. It's not a good use. It's not what was originally intended there and I did hear that from staff clearly this evening too going through the proposal, which they seem to be in favor of. That's fine but I heard also in there that as the gentleman just said, this doesn't fit the PUD and what was really planned and proposed for this area and I hope all of you will really think about that too. Is this what you want in Chanhassen? Big box liquor store close to a church and school. Making an area that's already congested more congested. It's just not a good location. I think some of the, I definitely agree on the signs so I'll keep it short for all of you. I certainly hope you wouldn't approve the additional sign. That generally doesn't happen in Chanhassen from what I know in being a long U Chanhassen Planning Commission — July 7, 2015 time building owner and property owner in Chanhassen. And I don't believe it was, it was pointed out what the current requirements are. I did not hear what the applicant is proposing for the signage which is obviously going to be proposed larger letters than 30 inches in height and higher than 20 feet but it didn't say how much higher than 20 feet. How much higher than the 30 inches but it doesn't matter because that should not be compromised. It's just not fair. Couple other things I heard just maybe for your interest is talking about hard cover. I'm not going to go into details. You are very well versed. I think you should look at that closer. I heard the words of pervious pavement. I don't know what pervious pavement is. If someone can enlighten me but I've never heard of pervious pavement. I've heard of pervious surfaces sometimes permitted in cities. I don't pretend to know the City of Chanhassen's fill ordinance on that. Often times you see pavers or some other permitted pervious surfaces and situations. I don't know if you do in the commercial district but I'm not sure what pervious pavement is. I already spoke about the clarification for the signage. I think a traffic study would clearly be warranted. My recollection is this kind of brings back some old memories being here this evening from many, many meetings in front of the Planning Commission and council years ago but a traffic analysis should be required period. It would be crazy not to. You've heard from people and I'm sure you are all well aware of the area. It is very congested It's very awkward. It's very awkward. This is just going to make that a whole lot worst. There are uses for that site that I think would be very nice for the city. Fit what the city originally intended there. A couple of them were mentioned by the applicant themselves for a clothing store was one. A pet store. Something that could fit in a large building if that should be your decision. Those could be nice but guess what, they don't have liquor. And this is not the place for a liquor store but for all the other reasons, and I understand too. This is just not a good location for this proposed development. Thank you very much. Aller: Thank you, and for the record we did receive your letter. It will be attached and attached to the package that goes to the City Council regarding other issues. Brian Burdick: Thank you very much for mentioning that. Appreciate it. Aller: Any additional individuals wishing to come forward can do so at this time. Please state your name and address for the record. Jay Kronick: Thank you. My name is Jay Kronick. I own property on 78's Street. 78 West 7P Street and 19900 West 78"' Street. Aller: Welcome Mr. Kronick. Jay Kronick: Those parcels. I've been in the business community here in Chanhassen since before Village on the Ponds and I remember when that went in, most of what I feel has been said by the two gentlemen before me and so there's nothing new but I just need to stand up here and tell you that I agree with what has been forth here. This is big box retailing. Make no mistake about it and yes it fits the numbers as Mr. Burdick said but it's going to change that planned unit development away from the original intent and if that's where you want to go with it, that's where it's going to go but if you want to get back to a livable, walkable, bike friendly shopping area, it's not the right use there. The parking thing just blows me away that you haven't looked 11 0 0 Chanhassen Planning Commission—July 7, 2015 at that and the traffic with enough scrutiny. My site, which has a building half the size of it which services wines and spirits right now. We have 70 parking spaces there and there are times where it's not adequate and you already have a parking problem there. It's just, I can't see that you just give that. It deserves more scrutiny. The issue with the signage, the gentlemen before me have spoke. I can't help but agree. The City sets rules up. All the businesses play by those rules. To start changing the rules seems unfair. Many of us have worked diligently within the confines and guidelines of the city for our professional and business careers here and to change the rules because someone feels like they don't have the visibility they want. We all would like better visibility from our signs and gosh, why don't we do it everywhere if that's the case. Everyone should be seen better from the highway than they are. Thanks. Aller: Thank you sir. Any additional comments? Please come forward. State your name and address for the record. Steve Friedrichs: Good evening. My name is Steve Friedrichs. I'm at 8955 Southwest Village Loop. New townhomes right there by Southwest Transit. Actually I was here for, so I'm a new resident of Chan. I was here for the Arbor Glen planning but stayed to listen. So just a couple of things. I'm the president of the homeowners association and traffic flow would be a concern of mine. One of the reasons I moved where I did is I love to bike into downtown and I bike and I go over the bridge to get into downtown. And to get back across I have to go, I think it's where the Marathon is or whatever and that street, I know we have a bicycle path for us to go through there but it's very, very congested. Very dangerous and I just think we should do a traffic study. A traffic flow so we can keep Chanhassen what it was designed for and I really do appreciate the opportunity to address the group. Thank you. Aller: Thank you sir and welcome. Peter Adolphson: Good evening Chairman. My name's Peter Adolphson, 8980 Reflections Road. Having been in the public eye before I find it amazing that staff, while they've done their job on the stuff that looks good. Haven't done their job where they need to and just some rough figuring. For Total Wine to make the kind of volume they want you're talking about 3,000 cars a day to get in there and as these previous gentlemen have said, it's already a lousy traffic situation there. I think although you have letters of support in your packet from Houlihan's and the bike shop. St. Hubert's I'm sure would not be very happy about this at all, especially when they've got Saturday mass going on. The senior center, those people have to walk to where they want to get. If there's 3,000 extra cars a day in there, they're going to be looking out for their lives. You only got one traffic light and that's Highway 7. All the rest are stop signs and it's hard enough to get onto Market sometimes with the traffic flow we currently have. Other guys both have said, we don't need another big box store. I agree totally. What are we trying to do to our downtown right now? If we start putting these big box stores around. I know Chanhassen has a history of turning down box stores. You've got Fleet Farm. You've got Walmart. You guys need to think about that. This is not the image we need for Chanhassen. Thank you. Aller: Thank you sir. Any additional comments? Please state your name and address for the record. IK 0 0 Chanhassen Planning Commission — July 7, 2015 Kate McGuire: I'm Kate McGuire and I live at 773 Autumn Ridge Lane, Chanhassen and I guess I just want to reiterate a lot of the items that have been brought to your attention. I definitely think that a traffic study should be done. It is a very congested area, especially at that west entrance which is just controlled by a stop sign. There's a lot of traffic there during rush hour. You've got the big business across the road from there with people coming and going. Of course traffic coming up from 212. School starting. School ending. My daughter works at the salon in there so she's traveling in there too so that's a concern as a mother. I know this isn't really your area to decide on but we already have 7 liquor stores in a town that covers almost 25 miles. I think we have maxed out on our liquor licenses and I know that's not your area but I just wanted to bring that up too. Aller: Thank you very much. Any additional comments? Questions. Oh, one other individual coming forward. Please state your name and address for the record sir. Craig Claybaugh: My name's Craig Claybaugh, 1630 Lake Lucy Road in Chanhassen. Aller: Welcome. Craig Claybaugb: It may be in there in looking over the documents but what was the identified hardship for the signage that warranted the variance? Aanenson: What we did is we gave a variance to the previous application and nobody objected to that so instead of saying we're going to give them a variance we wanted to treat everybody in that same sector equal. Nobody objected to the previous variance on the specialty grocery. The 14,000 plus the additional, and then we have additional square footage with that so. Craig Claybaugh: So what was the hardship on that? Because is that hardship being grandfathered forward? Aanenson: No. No, no, we're amending the PUD which is a different application and the fact that it applies to everybody in that same sector. Craig Claybaugh: Okay. Am I wrong in assuming there needs to be a hardship for a variance? Aanenson: For a PUD amendment, that's correct. Aller: For the PUD so. Craig Claybaugh: Alright, thank you for that clarification. Aller: But that's what we look for in variances so it's a good question. Thank you sir. Any additional comments? Seeing no one come forward I'll close the public hearing at this time. Open it up for discussion or questions based on the comments made. Undestad: Alyson, clarify some of the. 13 0 0 Chanhassen Planning Commission — July 7, 2015 Aller: Yeah, can you address some of the issues that were brought forward. I guess the first and foremost would be parking and traffic. Fauske: I'll let the planning department refer to, response to the parking concerns as they've done the analysis for the parking on the site. With regards to the traffic, when we look at this site the public infrastructure that serves the entire Villages development is County Road 101 to the west and then Great Plains Boulevard which is, I think there were a couple members of the audience that had spoke to the Marathon station. That's where Great Plains Boulevard extends to. At this point to be honest I haven't heard a lot of, this is good information to get from the residents as far as their concerns with traffic. We can take a look at what the traffic counts are doing on some of these roads. Certainly County Road 101 was designed, given the zoning in mind, in place at this development and tum lanes installed both for southbound left tum and northbound right tum. So we can certainly take a look at you know the existing intersection and see if there's any queuing back into the, into the through lanes. If the level of service is deteriorating at that intersection. That's certainly something that we can talk to Carver County with regards to on 101 because it is a county road. And you know with regards to the trip generation for this site, I really couldn't speak to what the trip generation is for this. That wasn't something that I have in the back of my head to be able to tell you. We can certainly provide that information for the council based on the square footage of the building and what the Institute of Traffic Engineers would anticipate would be a trip generation for that size building. And then with regards to the interior site, you know some of the concerns with regards to the tight radius and the traffic, I know that the City Engineer/Public Works Director has been in contact with the property manager on several occasions throughout the years to discuss some of the concerns that have been brought forward from the residents to the City so he's been communicating with the property manager on those issues you know hoping to get some resolve with that and being able to make the area a little better drivability for the residents but it's ultimately an interior non- public system. Aanenson: I guess I would just add to that too. If you go back to the specialty grocery store, if you look at the types of uses and where they would draw from they would be similar types of draw. Probably a little bit larger trade area so you look at the traffic patterns. While that one didn't have the same visceral feelings about the type of use, it also did have a larger trade area so that one seemed to work so I think to going back and looking at, as the Assistant City Engineer mentioned, looking at kind of the trade draw area tum movements. Peak hours. Those sort of things and quantifying those but certainly we believe that one met the standards there. Again you have access onto the state highway. Highway 5 and coming off of 101 there which would be the public street that we also maintain. Getting access off to that but we certainly can, comparing those two numbers to show you what we had approved previously based on those assumptions and moving forward with that to the City Council. Aller: When the PUD was originally developed the number of parking spots, if you know was that based on the, the intended square footage that was going to be for the entire PUD? Al -Jaffa Yes it was and one of the things that we need to point out as far as the residential portion, it assumed that all of those units were going to be independent living and that's how the parking was calculated for the overall PUD development. The reality is we do have a large 14 0 0 Chanhassen Planning Commission — July 7, 2015 number of senior living within the development and some of those senior living apartments are not just, they're actually assisted living which means those are individuals that actually don't have vehicles with them. Yet the number of parking spaces have, that are provided with this development exceeds what was anticipated and what was required by ordinance. The other thing that we need to point out is the highest square footage and the highest user that requires parking would be the office and commercial use and the reality is we are far below what was anticipated for this development and again. Aanenson: Let me just say that a little bit differently. So the original plans anticipated more retail than we have there today so it's under retailed. And then so we do have some vertical/ horizontal. That would be Presbyterian Homes which has commercial. Yes, is it exactly how we envisioned it? No. I mean when this thing went through a sag big time and without throwing the baby out with the bath we kind of had to retool. Just like people challenge us, why doesn't Chanhassen's downtown look like Excelsior? Wayzata Because it's built at a different timeframe but I think for the most part we've stayed within that framework of what our original envision was. Again we had St. Hubert's Church which also has a lot of parking. They can provide cross parking in some of those peak times when there's additional activities so the challenge there is while there might not be parking right in front of where you want to go, you may have to walk. Whether that's the Legion, walking across maybe from St. Hubert's or something like that. That's the envision is that you're sharing parking in that situation so we believe it does meet those standards and again to be clear, there is plenty of impervious surface. It does meet the hard surface parking. With that PUD they've got a lot of open space so it does meet those standards so the challenge there is to make sure that we've given you the information and the council regarding again, we believe it met the traffic warrants with the specialty grocery but make sure we've quantified that when we move forward to the City Council based on the liquor use. But would it be any different if it was you know a larger trade area or something so we can maybe put a couple different options in there too showing what those different traffic patterns would be. Again we're under retailed from the original vision that we put in place in the environment assessment document. Aller: With impervious surfaces we exceed what our PUD requirements are? Aanenson: That's correct. We're at about 45 percent. Aller: By a good 10 percent. Aanenson: Yes and that's part of the PUD. We had that with the National Weather Service site too where you have some properties that have more green space and others less but you average it over the entire property so this entire 66 acres has 45 percent. Aller: So regardless of the pervious nature of a material that's placed and being used for this project, it would still fit the requirements of the PUD? Aanenson: That's correct. Again that's part of that you know what we show you the compilation of all the parking, of the hard cover. So we match that up against the original, where we are. Kind of a balance sheet. 15 0 0 Chanhassen Planning Commission — July 7, 2015 Aller: Question, Commissioner Undestad. Undestad: The balance sheet. I just, I was going to ask the question earlier about you know a lot of the areas when we go through these we kind of keep tabs on what we thought would go in there when we started and where we're at mid -stream and where we're at now. Have you gone through that? Again initially we were going to have a lot of residential above a lot of retail and things are changed. Have you gone through so you can kind of look and say well actually we're under here. We're over there. Aanenson: Yep. Yeah we still anticipated two significant office buildings to go on the site and those are still vacant and we also anticipated a lot more institutional type uses so there are other uses that came under what we anticipated. You know we anticipated a lot more vertical. I think the challenge out there is you know the condominium market right now is in the last 10 years has been very challenging. That's really what we anticipated. They took a long time and the City had provided, you know with the TIF to get the Presbyterian Homes in there and that's been very successful and it's a nice anchor. Again the City wanted to have additional property for some retail and that was really one of the drivers we were running on kind of the score here and providing that retail across the street. Undestad: So if we assume that that lot down by St. Hubert's, the office building goes in there. I think the building that's under construction now next to Community Bank is a little bit smaller than what was originally, could have been put on there. Aanenson: Right, correct. Undestad: So I guess that's what I'm trying to just get a feel for is that really we're probably less than where we thought we would have been. Aanenson: Absolutely. Absolutely. Undestad: In this whole project didn't we. Aanenson: Yeah. Aller: Additional questions, comments. Undestad: Just following up part to Alyson there too was, again on the traffic piece of it. You know if we looked at this originally and we've done some traffic work back when the original project came in, or no? Aller: Let me piggy back on that. Was there an AUAR in the area? Aanenson: Yes there was an original, yeah. For the project. We have an approved Environmental Assessment Worksheet and it looked at all the trip generation and where it was coming from, that's correct. 16 Chanhassen Planning Commission — July 7, 2015 Undestad: So again we've had traffic work done based on. Aanenson: Yes. And again because we're under that threshold looking at that. Undestad: Okay. Madsen: Does that trip generation worksheet look at all the different access points of the ways that you can tum and when you have to tum left and cross a 4 lane road? All those sorts of intersections. Aanenson: Yes. It looked at directional traffic. Madsen: Okay, thank you. Weick: Regarding the sign amendment. The amendment matches Sector 2, correct? Al -Jaffa Yes. Weick: So Sector 1 would match Sector 2 when it comes to sign requirements, correct? Aanenson: That's our recommendation. Weick: Okay. I mean I would note, you know Houlihan's which sits in Sector 2 I believe is right off the comer of this building. I mean the proximity of those buildings and their subsequent proximity to 5 is very similar I will note. Aller: Which goes to my questions earlier that because they would be treated equally even if he was in Section 1. Houlihan's could then change or modify their signage. Weick: Correct. Aanenson: So if you looked at what American Inn has. AmericInn. That's a taller sign on there. They have kind of a cupola that. Aller: Any additional comments, questions at this time? Then I'll entertain a motion if someone wishes to make one. Weick: Actually can I go back? I do. You know at the beginning we said we were looking at three things. One was plat approval. Two was site plan approval and three was the PUD amendment for the signage. Is there any in the first two items, so plat approval and site plan approval, there's no amendments or variances or anything in those correct? Aanenson: That's correct. Weick: So everything that's presented falls within the zoning ordinances. IN 0 0 Chanhassen Planning Commission — July 7, 2015 A] -Jaffa Exceeds the requirements. Weick: Or exceeds the requirements and so the real question for us is item number 3, is that a fair statement? Aanenson: Yes you have discretion on, you have discretion on the amendment, that's correct. Weick: Thank you. Aller: Because in denying or approving items 1 and 2, which are the plats and the site plan review, if a property, a request is made and it meets the requirements we must approve so that boils down the reason we ask questions. The reason we want the information and staff does it's report is so that we can decide whether or not that, those requirements are met. Once a determination is that we feel as though they are met then we must approve. If we feel that they are not met, then you have the ability to deny. So with that any additional questions? Weick: Sorry. Aller: No, that's fine. Then I'1] entertain a motion. Educated decision. Weick: I'll make a motion. Aller: Commissioner Weick. Weick: The Chanhassen Planning Commission recommends that City Council approve the preliminary plat for Villages on the Ponds I I'h Addition, site plan for Chanhassen specialty retail, and planned unit development amendment to the sign criteria subject to the conditions of the staff report and adopts the Findings of Fact and Recommendation.

Those individuals wishing to discuss other items with regards to the City Council or follow this item to the City Council for it's final determination is presently set for July 27, 2015. Thank you all for participating. We're going to take a minute recess here to allow the room to clear and those individuals that might have been here for item number 3 that was presently on the calendar. Arbor Glen planning case, that matter has been removed from the calendar at their request and that will be extended and heard by this commission on the 21'. The Planning Commission took a short recess at this point in the meeting. PUBLIC HEARING: GLACCUM SUBDIVISION. PLANNING CASE 2015-18: REOUEST FOR REZONING OF PROPERTY FROM RURAL RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT (RR) TO SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT (RSF): AND SUBDIVISION WITH VARIANCES OF APPROXIMATELY THREE ACRES INTO FOUR LOTS ON PROPERTY LOCATED AT 1510 LAKE LUCY ROAD. APPLICANT/OWNER: ESTATE DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION/MICHAEL & LEAH GLACCUM. Generous: Thank you Chairman Aller, commissioners. As you stated Planning Case 2015-18 is Glaccum Subdivision. Glaccum's are the property owners for this site and so that's where the name comes from. Tonight we're holding the public hearing and this goes to City Council on July 27's. The applicant is Estate Development Corporation and Michael and Leah Glaccum. Again it's a rezoning of the property from it's currently zoned rural residential to residential single family or RSF. The property is guided in the Comprehensive Plan for residential low density uses and this means density of 1.2 to 4 units per acre. This development will come in within that range and it complies with all the requirements of the RSF district. The property is located at the northeast comer of Lake Lucy Road and Yosemite. Property address is 1510 Lake Lucy Road. There is an existing single family home on this site as well as a couple out buildings and a little garden. The northwest comer of their property consists of a wetland complex and the one issue we had in here is there's a small portion of the site meets the city criteria for a bluff and the City defines a bluff as having an elevation change of 25 feet or more and a slope of 30 percent or greater so when it has both those criteria then we consider it a bluff. However this entire ridge area, there's only a small percentage of this. The development to the east Shadow Ridge has the same slope configuration. However none of that met the bluff criteria so everything around this bluff area could develop except for that specific area behind the existing house. That house does not meet the City's requirements for setback from a bluff. It's approximately 10 feet from the top of the bluff. Bluff setbacks are 30 feet. So the applicant, as part of this development with the subdivision is requesting a variance from the bluff setback requirement and in this instance to go to zero setback they want to take out the top of that hill and make the residential area developable. What staff worked with the developer on was trying to preserve the wetland area and the wooded area on the northern, on the north side of this project. Down in the bottom of the bowl if you will. Again this is a rezoning from rural residential to single family residential district and a subdivision of the property into 4 single family lots. As part of the development they would outlot the wetland and they would also 22 PROPOSED MOTION: "The Chanhassen Planning Commission recommends that City Council approve the preliminary plat for Villages on the Ponds 11 m Addition; site plan for Chanhassen Specialty Retail, and Planned Unit Development Amendment to the sign criteria subject to the conditions of the staff report, and adopts the Findings of Fact and Recommendation." SUMMARY OF REQUEST: The developer is requesting preliminary plat approval to create one lot and one outlot (Villages on the Ponds l ls' Addition), and Site Plan Review for a 19,909 square -foot, one-story specialty liquor store (Total Wine & More), and Planned Unit Development Amendment to the sign criteria. Notice of this public hearing has been mailed to all property owners within the required 500 feet. Staff is recommending approval of the request with conditions.

If it meets these standards, the City must approve the preliminary plat. This is a quasi-judicial decision. The City's discretion in approving or denying a site plan is limited to whether or not the proposed project complies with Zoning Ordinance requirements. If it meets these standards, the City must then approve the site plan. This is a quasi-judicial decision. Planning Commission • • Chanhassen Specialty Retail — Planning Case 2015-17 July 7, 2015 Page 2 of 23 The City has a relatively high level of discretion in approving amendments to PUDs because the City is acting in its legislative or policy-making capacity. A PUD amendment must be consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan. PROPOSAUSUMMARY The site is located at the northwest comer of Lake Drive and Main Street, within Villages on the Ponds, a mixed-use development. The site was rough graded as part of the overall development. The property is located within Sector I of the Villages on the Ponds development (there are four sectors within the development which will be discussed in further detail later in the report). The following is a summary of the proposal: 1. Subdivision: Replat an outlot into one lot and one outlot to house a specialty retail building. 2. Site Plan: Construction of a 19,909 square -foot retail building (Total Wine & More). Planning Commission • • Chanhassen Specialty Retail — Planning Case 2015-17 July 7, 2015 Page 3 of 23 3. Planned Unit Development Amendment: Changing the Signage Criteria to allow wall signs to be placed higher than 20 feet from floor elevation along the north and west building facades, and increase the height of the individual letters not to exceed 48 inches. The primary parking for the project is located within the westerly portion of the site. Some on - street parking is also available along Lake Drive, Main Street and Pond Promenade, which are all private streets. Within Villages on the Ponds there are existing cross -access and cross -parking agreements that permit a portion of the parking to be located off site. Parking requirements in excess of those specifically provided on site are through shared parking. The building materials consist of rock face block, accent block and concrete utility brick. Black awnings are proposed over individual windows. An E.I.F.S. band is incorporated at the top of the walls and is used as a sign band. Staff has been working with the applicant for several months to improve the design and layout of the site and building. The applicant has implemented all staff's recommendations into the design. The product is attractive and will complement the design of surrounding buildings. The proposed development is consistent with the comprehensive plan and the project's development design standards. Staff is recommending approval of the project subject to the conditions of this report. APPLICABLE REGULATIONS Chapter 18, Subdivision Chapter 20, Article II, Division 6, Site Plan Planning Commission • • Chanhassen Specialty Retail — Planning Case 2015-17 July 7, 2015 Page 4 of 23 Chapter 20, Article XXIII, Division 7, Design Standards for Commercial, Industrial and Office - Institutional Development Villages on the Ponds Development Design Standards BACKGROUND On September 23, 1996, the City Council approved PUD 95-2, Villages on the Ponds, including a Comprehensive Land Use Plan amendment from Office/Industrial, Institutional, Residential Medium Density, Residential Low Density to Mixed Use -Commercial, High Density Residential, Institutional and Office; Preliminary Planned Unit Development for up to 291,000 square feet of commercial/office buildings, 100,000 square feet of institutional buildings, and 322 dwelling units; Rezoning from IOP and RSF to PUD, Planned Unit Development (final reading); and final plat dated "Received September 19, 1996" for two lots and ten outlots and public right-of-way. On June 28, 1999, the City Council approved PUD 95-2 granting Final Plat approval for Villages on the Ponds Fourth Addition, creating one lot and two outlots. The lot is for the Peddler Cyclery, a.k.a., Bokoo Bikes. On December 9, 2002 the Chanhassen City Council approved Site Plan #2002-9, plans prepared by Truman Howell Architects and Associates, Inc., dated October 18, 2002, for a 70,873 square - foot, three-story building consisting of street level commercial and upper level hotel rooms (not constructed); and A variance for the use of more than 15 percent EIFS on the building based upon the finding that it is consistent with other buildings approved in the area (void since not used); and A variance for signage in excess of 20 feet in height on the building based on the fact that it is consistent with the approval given to the Community Bank of Chanhassen building (void since not used). On October 27, 2014, the Chanhassen City Council approved the Preliminary and Final Plat for Villages on the Ponds 11' Addition; Site Plan for Chanhassen Specialty Grocery with a Variance to the sign letter size on the north and west building elevations subject to the modified conditions of the Planning Commission staff report, and the Development Contract for Villages on the Ponds l lm Addition. Planning Commission • Chanhassen Specialty Retail — Planning Case 2015-17 July 7, 2015 Page 5 of 23 On February 9, 2015, the Chanhassen City Council approved the extension of the time to record the site plan agreement for Chanhassen Specialty Grocery and the final plat for Villages on the Ponds 116' Addition to May 31, 2015. (Not constructed and plat not recorded). SITE PLAN In order to provide a better understanding of the overall development, staff will first review the site plan component, which in turn leads to the Planned Unit Development Amendment and the Replat of the outlot. The building must comply with the Design Standards for Villages on the Ponds design criteria. The ordinance governing this site requires the development to have an attractive design and use durable materials. Site coverage may not exceed 70 percent. This is a Planned Unit Development and hard surface coverage can be averaged over the entire development including the permanent open space. When the city approved the initial development for Villages on the Ponds, it insured an open space that exceeds 30%. The actual open space exceeds 45%. The design of the building is attractive and is proposed to be constructed of high-quality materials that are complementary to surrounding buildings. They include rock face block, accent block and concrete utility brick. Black awnings are proposed over individual windows. An E.I.F.S. band is incorporated at the top of the walls and is used as a sign band. The architectural design of the building lends itself to place wall signage over the E.I.F.S. band shown in the elevations below. Staff is recommending approval of a PUD amendment to allow the requested signage if it meets the architectural integrity of the overall development. Planning Commission • • Chanhassen Specialty Retail — Planning Case 2015-17 July 7, 2015 Page 6 of 23 All elevations can be viewed by the public on all four sides. Staff commends the applicant on the level of detail that has been introduced to the building through the use of spandrel windows, different building materials, a green wall along the east elevation, projecting entrance and articulation along the roof line. The loading dock is buffered from views by landscaping. The majority of the parking is located along the western portion of the site. Sidewalks are extended between the subject site and the surrounding area and separates pedestrian from vehicular traffic. The trash enclosure for the building is located along the southeast comer of the building and is proposed to utilize the some materials as the building. The added landscaping and boulevard trees will provide a calming effect to a busy area. The building has a pronounced entrance, utilizes durable exterior materials, and exhibits articulation. There are no required setbacks from any of the private streets within this development. Staff regards the project as a well-designed development. The overall design is sensitive to the surrounding area. Based upon the foregoing, staff is recommending approval of the site plan with conditions as outlined in the staff report. Planning Commission • • Chanhassen Specialty Retail — Planning Case 2015-17 July 7, 2015 Page 7 of 23 LIGHTING/SIGNAGE The applicant has submitted a lighting plan and a photometrics plan has been prepared for the site. Light levels for site lighting shall be no more than one-half foot candle at the project perimeter property line. This does not apply to street lighting. All fixtures must be shielded. The proposed parking lot lights are a shoebox design which is permitted in this development. The light poles may not exceed 20 feet in height. The PUD standards encourage the use of lights on the building to minimize the number of parking lot lights. The applicant is proposing to use downcast shielded fixtures. Wall signage is proposed along four sides of the building which is permitted under the Planned Unit Development ordinance governing this development. However, there is a limit on the size of the individual letters and height of the wall sign. Staff will address this issue in detail under the PUD amendment section of the report. PARKING The ordinance requires one parking space per 200 square feet of retail building, which translates to 100 spaces for this application. The applicant is providing 84 spaces on site and 74 on -street parking spaces. The entire development was created based on a shared parking concept. An overall parking study noted that the cross -parking arrangement would provide sufficient parking to accommodate users throughout the development. The parking study and the Alternative Urban Areawide Review (AUAR) anticipated a greater density and intensity of use. It was anticipated that there would be a total of 291,000 square feet of office/commercial space, 100,000 square feet of institutional space, and 322 dwelling units in the overall development. Actual development resulted in the following: Planning Commission • • Chanhassen Specialty Retail — Plannin Case 2015-17 July 7, 2015 Page 8 of 23 Aa L Use Anticipated Actual Net Change Institutional 100,000 square feet 134,000 square feet -34,000 square feet Residential 322 units* 323 units** -1 unit Office/Commercial 291,000 square feet 198,500 square feet +92,500 s uare feet *Parking study assumed independent living apartment units requiring more parking ** 160 of the 323 units are senior -only apartments which required substantially less parking The overall Villages on the Ponds development provides ample parking and remains consistent with the approved plan. ARCHITECTURAL COMPLIANCE Size, Portion and Placement Entries: The building has pronounced entrances. Articulation: The buildings incorporate adequate detail and has been tastefully designed to complement the surrounding area. The architectural style is unique to the buildings but will fit in with the surrounding area. The building utilizes exterior materials that are durable and of high quality. Site Furnishing The applicant is providing bicycle racks in the northwest corner of the building and an eco -mesh green wall on the east side of the building. Material and Detail High quality materials are being used on the building. Color The colors chosen for the buildings are earth tones. The selection is unique, but blends in with the surrounding buildings. Height and Roof Design The building is a one-story building. The roofline is staggered and contains pitched elements which adds articulation to the design of the buildings. All rooftop equipment must be screened from views. Planning Commission • • Chanhassen Specialty Retail — Planning Case 2015-17 July 7, 2015 Page 9 of 23 Facade Transparency All facades viewed by the public contain more than 50 percent windows and/or doors. Some walls are further broken by the use of landscaping. Loading Areas, Refuse Areas etc The trash enclosure and loading dock are located along the southeast corner of the building. They will be screened by landscaping and a trash enclosure. SITE PLAN FINDINGS In evaluating a site plan and building plan, the City shall consider the development's compliance with the following: (1) Consistency with the elements and objectives of the city's development guides, including the comprehensive plan, official road mapping, and other plans that may be adopted; (2) Consistency with this division; (3) Preservation of the site in its natural state to the extent practicable by minimizing tree and soil removal and designing grade changes to be in keeping with the general appearance of the neighboring developed or developing areas; (4) Creation of a harmonious relationship of building and open space with natural site features and with existing and future buildings having a visual relationship to the development; (5) Creation of functional and harmonious design for structures and site features, with special attention to the following: a. An internal sense of order for the buildings and use on the site and provision of a desirable environment for occupants, visitors and general community; b. The amount and location of open space and landscaping; c. Materials, textures, colors and details of construction as an expression of the design concept and the compatibility of the same with adjacent and neighboring structures and uses; and d. Vehicular and pedestrian circulation, including walkways, interior drives and parking in terms of location and number of access points to the public streets, width of interior drives and access points, general interior circulation, separation of pedestrian and vehicular traffic and arrangement and amount of parking. (6) Protection of adjacent and neighboring properties through reasonable provision for surface water drainage, sound and sight buffers, preservation of views, light and air and those aspects Planning Commission • • Chanhassen Specialty Retail — Planning Case 2015-17 July 7, 2015 Page 10 of 23 of design not adequately covered by other regulations which may have substantial effects on neighboring land uses. Finding: The proposed development is consistent with the city's design requirements, the comprehensive plan, the zoning ordinance, the design standards, and the site plan review requirements. Staff is recommending approval of the request with conditions. The site design is compatible with the surrounding developments. It is functional and harmonious with the area. Staff regards the project as a reasonable use of the land. The overall design is sensitive to the city's image. Based upon the foregoing, staff is recommending approval of the site plan with conditions outlined in the staff report. PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT AMENDMENT The current language pertaining to wall signage that address the subject building limits the height of the wall sign to 20 feet and the size of the individual letters to 30 inches. The proposed building as well as some of the other buildings that were approved before this one have received variances. When the applicant submitted the proposal for this request, they also requested a variance from this criteria. Staff evaluated the request and recommended a minor PUD amendment that would accommodate all users within this sector of the development to allow the same treatment. Approval of the building signage will be contingent upon approval of the PUD amendment. When Villages on the Ponds was being studied, discussed and analyzed, it was divided into four sectors: • Sector I: Mixed use of commercial and residential • Sector II: Highway exposure • Sector III: Institutional • Sector IV: Residential Within Sector I, the ordinance limited the wall signage to be placed no higher than 20 feet above the ground elevation, and limited the height of the individual letters to 30 inches. Sector R permits the placement of wall signs to be extended above 20 feet. This was permitted because Sector 11 was viewed as a highway -oriented development as it is bordered by Highay 5 to the north and Highway 101 to the west. Planning Commission • • Chanhassen Specialty Retail — Planning Case 2015-17 July 7, 2015 Page 11 of 23 As staff began evaluating the subject site and how it fits into the sector scenario described above, it was concluded that the north and west elevations for buildings in Sector I fall under that same rule. Based on this conclusion, staff directed the applicant to apply for a Planned Unit Development amendment rather than a variance. The amendment is simple and will involve two sections of the Wall Signs Criteria, as shown below in bold type and highlighted in yellow: Wall Signs 1. The location of letters and logos shall be restricted to the approved building sign bands, the tops of which shall not extend greater than 20 feet above the ground. In Sectors I and 11, sign height may be increase based on the criteria that the signage is compatible with and complementary to the building architecture and design. The letters and logos shall be restricted to a maximum of 30 inches in height except along the north and west elevations for buildings within sectors I and H. These letters may be increased to 48 inches. All individual letters and logos comprising each sign shall be constructed of wood, metal, or translucent facing. 2. If illuminated, individual dimensional letters and logos comprising each sign may be any of the following: a. Exposed neon/fiber optic, b. Open channel with exposed neon, c. Channel Letters with acrylic facing, d. Reverse channel letters (halo lighted), or e. Externally illuminated by separate lighting source. 3. Tenant signage shall consist of store identification only. Copy is restricted to the tenant's proper name and major product or service offered. Corporate logos, emblems and similar identifying devices are permitted provided they are confined within the signage band and do not occupy more than 15% of the sign area unless the logo is the sign. 4. Within Sectors I and II, architecturally, building -integrated panel tenant/logo sign may be permitted based on criteria that the signage is compatible with and complementary to the building design and architecture. Architectural elements specifically created to increase signage height are prohibited. 5. Backlit awnings are prohibited. Planning Commission • • Chanhassen Specialty Retail — Planning Case 2015-17 July 7, 2015 Page 12 of 23 As stated earlier, this is a mior amendment and staff is recommending approval of the request.

PARKS This property is located within the community park service area for Lake Susan Community Park and the neighborhood park service area for Rice Marsh Lake Neighborhood Park. Employees and visitors to the specialty retail store will have convenient access to these publicly -maintained park and recreation facilities. Lake Susan Park is 33 acres in size and features large playgrounds, basketball court, picnic shelter, tennis courts, archery range, public water access, fishing pier and a ball field. Ample off-street parking is available at the park. Rice Marsh Lake Neighborhood Park is four acres in size and features a playground, ball field, basketball court, volleyball court and a small picnic shelter. Off-street parking is available. No additional parkland acquisition is being recommended as a condition of this subdivision. Planning Commission • • Chanhassen Specialty Retail — Planning Case 2015-17 July 7, 2015 Page 15 of 23 TRAILS The subject site has convenient access to the public trails along Great Plains Boulevard, the three- mile Rice Marsh Lake trail loop, and the lakeside trail route to Lake Susan Park. No additional trail construction is being recommended as a condition of this subdivision. STREETS AND ACCESS The site lies within the Villages on the Pond Planned Unit Development located south of Trunk Highway 5 between County Road 101 and Great Plains Boulevard. The streets within the Villages development — Pond Promenade, Lake Drive and Main Street — are privately owned and maintained. The site is on the northwest corner of Lake Drive and Main Street and will be accessed from the north and west via Pond Promenade. The developer proposes improvements along the private streets north and west of the site, specifically installation of 90 -degree parking stalls that will be paved and will have curb and gutter. The developer has submitted turning movement templates illustrating how tractor -trailer units will access the site from Lake Drive and back into the loading dock on the south side of the building. UTILITIES Public sanitary sewer and water main are within the streets surrounding the proposed development. A drainage and utility easement is proposed over these utilities. The developer proposes to wet tap a six-inch diameter water service to the existing water main and extend a sanitary sewer service from an existing sanitary sewer manhole northwest of the building on Lot 1. These service connections will be inspected by the Building Department in conjunction with the budding/plumbing permit. GRADING AND DRAINAGE The site was mass graded when the surrounding area was developed. The original plans for the site included underground parking within the southern portion of proposed Lot 1. The underground parking was sub cut with the original site grading and has since filled with surface water runoff. The developer proposes to raise the grade of Lot 1, including filling the aforementioned sub -cut area. Porous pavement is proposed to be installed, draining to an underground system comprised of sand and a drain tile outlet that connects to the existing storm sewer system. This connection will be inspected by the Building Department in conjunction with the building/plumbing permit. Based on the proposed grading on the north side of site the grading plan may require some revisions in order to maintain drainage from the existing improvements to the north. Planning Commission • • Chanhassen Specialty Retail - Planning Case 2015-17 July 7, 2015 Page 16 of 23 The entire site drains to Rice Marsh Lake. The majority of the site reaches Rice Marsh Lake through a conveyance that follows the 101 corridor. A small portion of the site drains to the wetland located along Highway 5 before heading south through the Hidden Valley neighborhood and then on to Rice Marsh Lake. Within the two largest drainage areas and overall drainage on the site the discharge rates are decreased under the developed conditions from existing conditions.

SITE GRADING: EROSION PREVENTION AND SEDIMENT CONTROL The proposed development will exceed one (1) acre of disturbance and will, therefore, be subject to the General Permit Authorization to Discharge Stormwater Associated with Construction Activity Under the National Pollution Discharge Elimination/State Disposal System (NPDES Construction Permit). The applicant has prepared a Surface Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) and submitted to the city. This SWPPP must contain all required elements as listed in Parts III and IV of the permit. The City has a checklist of required elements that can be made available to the applicant's engineer. The PCA also has a checklist available on their website. It is known that dewatering must take place on the site. A dewatering plan shall be included as part of the SWPPP and submitted to the city for review. The pervious pavement must be protected at all times throughout construction. The SWPPP and erosion plan shall indicate how stabilization of tributary disturbed areas is to occur and that it must occur such that no sediment is introduced to the areas once they have been installed, but in no case any longer than 24 hours. Staff has firsthand knowledge that failure to stabilize these areas can result in an ineffective practice. Planning Commission • • Chanhassen Specialty Retail — Planning Case 2015-17 July 7, 2015 Page 17 of 23 SITE CONSTRAINTS Wetland Protection There is no indication that any wetlands are present on the property. The existing pond was created incidentally when the area was excavated in anticipation of constructing an underground parking facility. BluffProtection There are no bluffs or steep slopes on the site. Shoreland Management The property does not lie within any Shoreland district. Floodplain overlay This property does not he with a floodplain. STORM WATER MANAGEMENT Article VII, Chapter 19 of City Code describes the required storm water management development standards. Section 19-141 states that "these development standards shall be reflected in plans prepared by developers and/or project proposers in the design and layout of site plans, subdivisions and water management features." This site lies within the boundaries of the Riley -Purgatory -Bluff Creek Watershed District and is subject to their stormwater management requirements. These requirements are similar to Minimal Impact Design Standards and have the same required removals of total phosphorus and total suspended solids as does Chanhassen's code. Further, they are similar to Chanhassen's requirements as stipulated in our MS4 permit. To meet these requirements, the applicant is proposing to install pervious pavement in the interior parking stalls as well as three structural devices.

Buildings adjacent to pedestrian sidewalks must have commercial/office on the majority of the street frontage. (amended 11/26/01) e. Building Materials and Design The PUD requires that the development demonstrate a higher quality of architectural standards and site design. The intent is to create a pedestrian friendly, "traditional' village character consistent with the European heritage of the upper midwest and the atmosphere within this development, yet with the amenities and technological tools of modern times. The village elevations shown on the PUD drawings are to be used only as a general guideline and the reflection of the overall village image including the north - midwestern architectural vocabulary, village like human scale and flavor, and variety in design and facade treatment. 2. All materials shall be of high quality and durable. Major exterior surfaces of all walls shall be face brick, stone, glass, stucco, architecturally treated concrete, cast in place panels, decorative block, cedar siding, vinyl siding in residential with support materials, or approved equivalent as determined by the city. Color shall be introduced through colored block or panels and not painted block or brick. Bright, long, continuous bands are 5 0 0 prohibited. Bright or brilliant colors and sharply contrasting colors may be used only for accent purposes and shall not exceed 10 percent of a wall area. 3.

All accessory structures shall be designed to be compatible with the primary structure. 6. All roof mounted equipment shall be screened by walls of compatible appearing material. Wood screen fences are prohibited. All exterior process machinery, tanks, etc., are to be fully screened by compatible materials. All mechanical equipment shall be screened with material compatible to the building. The buildings shall have varied and interesting detailing. The use of large unadorned, concrete panels and concrete block, or a solid wall unrelieved by architectural detailing, such as change in materials, change in color, fenestrations, or other significant visual relief provided in a manner or at intervals in keeping with the size, mass, and scale of the wall and its views from public ways shall be prohibited. Acceptable materials will incorporate textured surfaces, exposed aggregate and/or other patterning. All walls shall be given added architectural interest through building design or appropriate landscaping. 8. Space for recycling shall be provided in the interior of all principal or accessory structures. 9. There shall not be underdeveloped backsides of buildings. All elevations shall receive nearly equal treatment and visual qualities. 10.

Window Tvoes Bay, single paned, multi -paned, angular, square, rectangular, half -round, round, italianate. Window Accents Plant boxes, shutters, balconies, decks, grates, canopies, awnings, recesses, embrasures, arches, lunettes. Street level windows shall be provided for a minimum of 50 percent of the ground level wall area. f. Site Landscaping and Screening 1. All buffer landscaping, including boulevard landscaping, included in Phase I shall be installed when the grading of the phase is completed. This may well result in landscaping being required ahead of individual site plan approvals, but we believe the buffer yard and boulevard plantings, in particular, need to be established immediately. In addition, to adhere to the higher quality of development as spelled out in the PUD zone, all loading areas shall be screened. Each lot for development shall submit a separate landscaping plan as a part of the site plan review process. 2.

We are proposing to subdivide and plat this parcel into Lot 1 retail development consisting of a 19,909 sf specialty retail store, as well as Outlot A which will contain the Pond Promenade Road improvements. Sidewalk construction and improvements are proposed along the full perimeter extents of Pond Promenade Road and Main Street as part of the improvements, enhancing the pedestrian friendly character of the project. Benches and bike racks are also being incorporated to further promote the pedestrian character. Architecture and Design The 19,909 sf single story building will be detailed with a varied pallet of warm toned materials for the building exterior. Materials consist of pigmented rock face and burnished masonry, brick, EIFS cornices, standing seam metal roofing, aluminum windows, and fabric awnings. Accommodation for the 70% sloped roof coverage requirement is accomplished through the use of sloped metal roofing at portions of all four elevations and feature corner towers rising above the sloped areas to provide a visual break in the sloped areas. The main entrance on the west elevation projects out to form a covered area over the entry and also provides a sloped metal hip roof. Additional use of projecting fabric awnings and metal awnings and sculpted EIFS cornices provide increased relief within the building facade. The 50% building fenestration requirement is accomplished with an interplay of massing, color, and material detailing at each elevation. The use of large windows, sloped metal roofing, sculpted EIFS cornices, and fabric awnings provide a pedestrian scale and architectural detailing to each elevation. Windows at some locations, as governed by the Tenant's store layout, may be spandrel or translucent glass highlighted with awnings. The exterior of the building is further enhanced with an emphasis to natural plant materials using a green screen climbing landscape element at the east elevation (Main Street) and extensive use of plantings varied in height along the north, east, and south elevations. The outdoor trash storage and loading area is also screened by use of plant materials. Articulation of the south wall elevation is also accomplished with the natural building steps resulting from the receiving appendage and with the added layering and screening provided by the freestanding trash enclosure with an architectural trellis detail. Tenant signage will be integrally lit channel letters and will occur on all four building elevations as allowed by city ordinance, and will be compliant with all allowable area requirements. Stormwater Design One of the unique challenges of this project is meeting the stringent requirements of Riley -Purgatory Bluff -Creek Watershed District (RPBCWD), and specifically the standards which just became effective January 1, 2015. This is further complicated by the existence of primarily group type D soils that are pervasive across this site. Stormwater rate, water quality and abstraction requirements are being satisfied via the construction of an underground stormwater infiltration system. Extensive areas of the parking lot are to be surfaced with pervious pavers over a draintile and rock infiltration basin system.

As a neighboring property owner, we believe it is important for the promotion of success of the retail businesses located within the Village on the Ponds to have the strong support and positive traffic generation that this proposed retail use will bring to the area. This area has lagged behind many of the businesses located across Highway 5 and needs the support of sizable, strong retailers in order to generate sufficient traffic to support strong sales volumes. In addition, this project will finally complete the Village on the Ponds development which will result in a healthy and vibrant look, feel and shopping experience. Last, the quality of the proposed architecture is strong and consistent with the other properties in the area and once completed all common areas will finally be installed in a manner consistent with the original vision for the Village on the Ponds project. We support the proposed project and hope that the City of Chanhassen will do the same. Sincerely, 6'.), -0-t jod�w Jay Scott President 12300 $ingletree Lane Suite 200 Eden Prairie, MN 55344 Phone: 952.974.9200 Fax: 952.974.9300 M�monre ou xom AI-Jaff, Sharmeen From: Ed Vigil <ekvigil@usinternet.com> Sent: Wednesday, July 01, 2015 11:24 AM To: AI-Jaff, Sharmeen Cc: Generous, Bob Subject: FW: TWM Hi Sharmeen, I will be traveling for the next 2 weeks and I will not be able to attend the meeting on Tuesday the 7th. However, I wanted to send you an email regarding the approval process of TWM in front of my property on Village on the Ponds. To the members of the City Council, My name is Ed Vigil, I am the owner of Bokoo Bikes and Paddlesports located at 550 Lake Dr in Chanhassen. Our building is situated directly adjacent to the proposed location of the new Total Wine and More retail store. I have been waiting for 15 years for this land to be developed and a business to open. Making use of this valuable location has been a long time coming and it is important that all potential businesses are given serious consideration. The recent recession did not help the prospects of this land being developed. There has been very little interest in this parcel over the years but there have been a few deals that fell through. Many of our customers have commented that we have a very nice pond in front of us and have been shocked to learn that the 'pond' is actually a hole that was dug in preparation for underground parking for Extended Stay Suites proposed to develop in 2001. The most recent activity was the fiasco of having another national retailer, Trader Joe's, abandon their plans to move to Chanhassen because of a clause within Lakewind's Co-op and the property owners agreement. We now have a golden opportunity for another nationally recognized retailer open up shop in our city. I would like to ask the City Council to do whatever is necessary to not lose this chance and welcome a retailer of TWM's caliber. Out of all the retailers I could imagine, this is a business with a very successful business model that will draw their customer base from outside Chanhassen because of competition generated by municipalities. Based upon the experiences of other cities, TWM will likely greatly increase consumer traffic for Chanhassen as a whole. Chanhassen is very fortunate to have been chosen as a site for expansion. I fully endorse the approval to welcome TWM to Village on the Ponds in Chanhassen. Respectfully, Ed Vigil 0 AI-Jaff, Sharmeen 0 Subject: FW: VOP Association, Architectural Review Committee's Comments for "Chanhassen Specialty Retail ", Outlot B, Village on the Ponds 4th Addition. From: Mika Milovancev rmailto:mmilo(almagarch.coml Sent: Friday, June 26, 2015 1:15 PM To: Vernelle Clayton Subject: FW: VOP Association, Architectural Review Committee's Comments for "Chanhassen Specialty Retail ", Outlot B, Village on the Ponds 4th Addition. To: Village on the Ponds Association c/o Vernelle Clayton, the Manager of the Association. Re. VOP- Architectural Review Committee's Comments for: " Chanhassen Specialty Retail", Outlot B, VOP 4te Addition, Proposed Development Plans. Developer: Venture Pass Date issued: 6/26/2015 Dear Vernelle, It is our understanding that the proposed Chanhassen Specialty Retail will be a welcome addition both to the City, as well as for the business environment of the VOP community area. And that was always the goal for our Village: a wide range of uses that together create pedestrian oriented streets and a vibrant urban setting. Keeping that in mind, we look favorably at the proposed development, even though it is not providing the desirable mix of uses (retail, residential, office...) within this specific site area. Also, the VOP Guidelines called for the main entry to be facing the Main Street, at least for the assumed office or residential uses Guidelines envisioned on the upper floors. However, we recognize that in this case of a large, single level retail store, in order to be successful in operation, the main entry needs to be as close as possible to the parking area. Especially in case of very cold winters we have in our Minnesota. In regard to some other specifics: --- Sheet L4.0- Lighting Plan: The existing Main Street lights are neither referred to, nor reflected on the plan, but those are to remain as part of VOP's overall streetscape. Also consider: - replacing "modern", powerful Gardco wall lights along the Main Street with Longman fixtures. Gardco would interfere/"diminish" the existing traditional lights on the street, as opposed to softer Lingman lights that would blend better with the overall character of this street. - providing a special lighting effect (landscape up lights?)for the curved "green wall" facing the Main Street. --- Sheet L2.0- Landscape plan: -It calls for the existing 5 street treeRso remain. This is of essence due to a very tight space between the building wall and the street sidewalk/parking, which allows only for a rather minimal new landscaping to be planted along the wall. -Also, aside of the two linden trees called for in the plan, there is not any other ground cover/landscape indicated at the NW corner of the parking lot; that needs to be corrected and properly landscaped and irrigated. --- Sheet A2.0 -Architectural Elevations: -Overall, and as well described in the "Project Summary Narrative" part of the submittal package to the City, the proposed building massing, "warm toned" facade materials, colors and various articulations, provide for desired varieties and good integration within the existing VOP community. - However, in regard to facade segments covered with the utility brick #2 at the East end North elevations, with their face flush with the adjacent wall areas, consider to change them to be either somewhat recessed, or projected out from the rest of the walls around them. That would give them a pronounced appearance and create more variety and interest on these elevations. - Specifically, at the Main Street, that wall segment could nicely follow the curved shape of the "green wall", thus breaking the monotony of the long and high flat building wall along the street. In absence of the building entry from the street, that, along with some possibly expended seating area there, would grant some interest and more of a "pedestrian oriented" feel to the street. In Conclusion: The above comments were based on our review of the set of preliminary plans (with a focus on architectural and landscape plans) as provided to us on 6/22/2015. We hope the above comments would help, along with further City's reviews and hearings, towards a successful completion and integration of this development into the VOP and City of Chanhassen urban core. Please let us know if we can be of any further assistance. Thank you, Mika Milo, r. architect For VOP Association, Architectural Review Committee.

NET> Sent: Wednesday, July 01, 2015 11:18 AM To: AI-Jaff, Sharmeen Cc: Dave Carland; Andy Krenik Subject: VOP review comments Sharmeen, as follow up to a voice message that I just left for you, I wanted to discuss how or if we were to react to the plan review comments that Mika provided last Friday (through Vernelle). We generally found his comments to be very favorable, but did have some clarification or concern with some of the comments. We want to understand if any of this becomes a part of staff report or conditions, and if so we want to provide some input. Below is an initial response from our architect that addresses Mika's comments: L4.0: Lighting Plan • Main Street lights will remain and are so noted on 1-1.0 (removed and reinstalled) • The lighting plan will need to be redone as there was not enough time to redo the plan per the 19,909 sf building revision • 1 have a call in to the lighting designer to see if/how changing to the Ligman fixture will alter the lighting levels • Uplights at the green wall are not allowed per my understanding as fixtures need to have a 90 degree cutoff L2.0: Landscape Plan • Sod/irrigatation noted for the NW corner but plants can be placed there instead if so desired A2.0: Architectural Elevations Brick #2 projects out 4" at East and North Elevations. Not in favor of projecting brick #2 out any further but we can at an added cost to footings and foundation. Corner brick #1 elements are already projecting out 8" to provide varying depths for facade along with projecting canopies and varying roof lines. Curving the brick wall on the east elevation will add substantial cost for additional footings and foundation work, will come very close to Utility Easement (but technically not over), and will reduce depth of planting area. The green wall is curved for that specific reason to break up the length of the elevation without adding costs and reducing planting area.

I do support this project because I believe the customer traffic generated by the proposed high volume retailer will benefit our business while not adding additional direct competition. I also believe the architecture and design are excellent and are cohesive to the high standards that have been achieved with previous building within the development.

We understand there is a possibility of a large retailer being located in a new building on that vacant land. We would be in support of the additional retailer being located there. Any retailer who can generate additional foot traffic and exposure to our businesses — as well as be an amenity for our guests — is a welcome addition to the area. We were looking at the Chanhassen Planning web site and feel the design and size of the building is complimentary to all of the neighbors. We fully support this recent development application.

The PUD was entered into in November, 1996 and the Declaration was entered into in March 1997. It appears that The Church of St Hubert was a land owner prior to the execution of the PUD and that with the execution of the PUD, their property was replatted as Lot 1, Block 2, Villages on the Ponds. The PUD established the zoning of the property as a PUD and memorialized development requirements. Among other things, the PUD also established permitted uses in exhibit C. Exhibit C lists a church as a permitted use and a liquor store as a permitted use (so long as the retail use (ie liquor store) does not exceed 20,000 square feet on one level). The Church of St Hubert was a party to the agreement and executed a "Fee Owner Consent to Development Agreement". In essence, the use of a liquor store is on equal footing as the use as a Church. The Declaration was also executed by the Church. The Declaration established, among other things, protective covenants regarding the development. Protective covenants included establishment of Prohibited Business or Activities. This Section of the Declaration prohibits the operation of any business or activity offering the sale of sexually explicit or "X-rated" materials. This is the only use that is specifically prohibited and no change was made that limited or prohibited the use as a liquor store. In summary, the PUD approves liquor stores as a permitted use and the Declaration, which followed the execution of the PUD, established prohibited uses but did not take exception to a liquor store use. 11 Jim Ottenstein Venture Pass Partners, LLC 19620 Waterford Court Shorewood, MN 55331 612-849-2324 Lttenstei n Ccilventu repass. net /VENTURE PASS PARTNERS Notice of Public Hearing lanhassen Planning Commission Mesti Date & Time: Tuesday, July 7, 2015 at 7:00 p.m. This hearing may not start until later in the evening, depending on the order of the agenda.

CHANHASSEN SPECIALTY RETAIL-Outl*ILLAGES ON THE PONDS 4m ADDN • REQUEST FOR VARIANCE TO PERMIT 42" WALL SIGNAGE LETTER HEIGHT ON NORTH AND WEST ELEVATIONS Venture Pass Partners, LLC has submitted for Site Plan Approval and Subdivision (Plat) for the 2.71 acre Outlot B VILLAGES ON THE PONDS 4ni ADDN, including the development of a 19,909 SF specialty retail store. The architectural design and exterior building elevations as submitted incorporate wall signage on four allowable building elevations, as follow: North -Fronting Pond Promenade and visible to Hwy 5 to the north. ;n OFCHANHASSEf l RECEIVED West -Over main entrance and fronting the parking lot, also visible to Market Blvd. East -Fronting Main Street JUN 18 2015 South -Fronting Lake Drive CHANHASSEN PtANNIN60F.PT Signage on each elevation is proposed as individual internally illuminated channel letters, 42" in height on the North and West elevations and 30" in height on the East and south elevations, and placed in a consistent fashion/signage band detail. The total area of each sign as proposed is well below the allowable signage area as per City ordinance, as illustrated and enumerated on the attached exterior elevation drawings. A variance is required due to a clause in the VOP Development Design Standards, restricting wall letters to a maximum of 30" in height. While this standard maybe suitable for small shop space or for visibility and legibility from directly abutting streets or at pedestrian scale, this is far too limiting and ineffective for our proposed use. We also feel that it is not of a scale consistent with the massing and dimensions of our proposed building. It should also be noted that when the Pond Promenade PUD was approved in 1996 it was one of the pioneering new urbanism projects in the Metropolitan area. During this period communities and planners had a general attitude that merchant signs should be minimal and generic. The current trend as evidenced by the relaxing of most municipal sign codes is that adequate signage is not only critical to a merchants success but can add vibrant and creative design elements to a project while adding distinction and variety to a neighborhood. Highly visible and legible signage is critical to the success and viability of a grocery operation with a regional draw. This parcel as situated has critical sightlines to Hwy 5 and to Market Blvd, however it is set back from Hwy 5 by approximately 550, and from Market Blvd by approximately 620'. Providing effective identification and signage to passing motorists is essential. Signage, if restricted to 30" letter height, will prove ineffective and unacceptable to the user. SCANNED Research as compiled by the United Statn Council, studying legibility of signage para+o roadways from moving vehicles is summarized in the table below. This tab a only calculates recommended letter heights up to a distance of 400' from the roadway, however even at 400' (highlighted in yellow) the recommended legible sizes exceed 80" in height. The 42" height that we are requesting is obviously well below this recommendation, but it will provide some level of effectiveness that could not be achieved with the 30" restriction. The 42" height is also consistent with other locations of our tenant, and in keeping with their minimum standards. For additional reference I also highlighted in red the effective distance for viewing signage with 30" letters. This approximate 100' distance is consistent with my comments above, suggesting this sizing is suitable for pedestrian scale or viewing from directly abutting roadways.

Note on this table that from the distances we are offset from the major roadways, signage with the best impact is 42" to 60" high. This does not take into account the limited viewing time that is possible when in a moving vehicle, or when concentrating on driving the vehicle, as is accounted for in table above. 40000 LETTER VISIBILITY CHART STATIC PERPENDICULAR VIEWING ----------------------- 3" 30' M Letter Height Distance for Best Max.

We are proposing to subdivide and plat this parcel into Lot 1 retail development consisting of a 23,520 sf specialty retail store, as well as Outlot A which will contain the Pond Promenade Road improvements. Sidewalk construction and improvements are proposed along the full perimeter extents of Pond Promenade Road and Main Street as part of the improvements, enhancing the pedestrian friendly character of the project. Benches and bike racks are also being incorporated to further promote the pedestrian character. Architecture and Design The 23,520 sf single story building will be detailed with a varied pallet of warm toned materials for the building exterior. Materials consist of pigmented rock face and burnished masonry, brick, EIFS cornices, standing seam metal roofing, aluminum windows, and fabric awnings. Accommodation for the 70% sloped roof coverage requirement is accomplished through the use of a feature corner tower with a hip roof and wrap around sloped metal roofing at portions of all four elevations. Additional use of projecting fabric awnings and sculpted EIFS cornices provide increased relief within the building facade. The 50% building fenestration requirement is accomplished with an interplay of massing, color, and material detailing at each elevation. The use of large windows, sloped metal roofing, sculpted EIFS cornices, brick piers, and fabric awnings provide a pedestrian scale and architectural detailing to each elevation. Windows at some locations, as governed by the Tenant's store layout, may be spandrel or translucent glass highlighted with awnings. The exterior of the building is further enhanced with an emphasis to natural plant materials using a green screen climbing landscape element at the east elevation (Main Street) and extensive use of plantings varied in height along the north, east, and south elevations. The outdoor trash storage and loading area is also screened by use of plant materials. Articulation of the south wall elevation is also accomplished with the natural building steps resulting from the receiving appendage and with the added layering and screening provided by the freestanding trash enclosure with an architectural trellis detail. Tenant signage will be integrally lit channel letters and will occur on all four building elevations as allowed by city ordinance, and will be compliant with all allowable area. requirements. Stormwater Design One of the unique challenges of this project is meeting the stringent requirements of Riley -Purgatory Bluff -Creek Watershed District (RPBCWD), and specifically the standards which just became effective January 1, 2015. This is further complicated by the existence of primarily group type D soils that are Pervasive across this site. Stormwater rate, water quality and abstraction requirements are being satisfied via the construction of an underground stormwater infiltration system. Extensive areas of the parking lot are to be surfaced with pervious pavers over a draintile and rock infiltration basin system. SCANNED CHANHASSEN SPECIALTY RETAIL-Outlot B VILLAGES ON THE PONDS 4'" ADDN REQUEST FOR VARIANCE TO EXCEED 20,000 SF RETAIL USER ON SINGLE LEVEL OF A BUILDING. (PROPOSE 23,520 SF) Venture Pass Partners, LLC has submitted for Site Plan Approval and Subdivision (Plat) for the 2.71 acre Outlot B VILLAGES ON THE PONDS 47" ADDN, including the development of a 23,520 sf specialty retail store. The proposed retail use is specifically listed as a Permitted Use in the Villages on the Ponds PUD zoning. The Villages on the Ponds Development Design Standards as adopted in 1996 and amended in 2001, under Article (b.) Permitted Uses, states that No single retail user shall exceed 20,000 squarefeet on a single level of a building. Within the Villages OnThe Ponds development, as well as in the surrounding downtown area and neighborhood, there are multiple offerings and opportunities for small shop space and uses. What is limited is the availability of larger parcels that can support a medium size retail box; a use that can serve as a critical draw in support of the neighboring small shop space. The 2.71 acre Outlot B parcel, less the approximately one acre that is to be platted as Outlot underlying Pond Promenade, is well suited to fill this void. Since its conception in 1996, the Villages On The Ponds development has struggled to reach full build -out, being limited by the small shop village character limitations that exist. Our proposed project can help achieve the goal of a full build -out, essentially becoming the final anchor to this development. The proposed 23,520 square foot building footprint, while smaller than the typical or desired footprint for this retail user, does represent the maximum development potential on this parcel. The site is extremely limited by the existence of deep, poor unsuitable soils over much of the site; with the Northeast corner being the only real suitable placement for building foundation. Creating multiple smaller footprints across other areas of the site would prove unfeasible and cost prohibitive due to extreme soil correction and deep foundation system requirements. These conditions are even further exacerbated by the new more stringent Riley -Purgatory Bluff -Creek Watershed District design standards as were made effective January 1, 2015. You will note in the storm water design documents that were engineered for this project, that we are incorporating significant areas of pervious pavers throughout the entire interior parking field to help comply with these new standards. We believe that this modest increase in proposed maximum building footprint size is merited and beneficial to the development as a whole. We will be introducing a significant, high quality national retailer to the development, enabling full build -out of the development, and at the same time maintaining high standards of architectural character and amenities. r1 NORTHWEST PERSPECTIVE .CHANHASSEN SPECIALTY RETAIL-Outlot B VILLAGES ON THE PONDS 4T" ADDN REQUEST FOR VARIANCE TO PERMIT 42" WALL SIGNAGE LETTER HEIGHT ON NORTH AND WEST ELEVATIONS Venture Pass Partners, LLC has submitted for Site Plan Approval and Subdivision (Plat) for the 2.71 acre Outlot B VILLAGES ON THE PONDS a ADDN, including the development of a 23,520 sf specialty retail store. The architectural design and exterior building elevations as submitted incorporate wall signage on four allowable building elevations, as follow: North -Fronting Pond Promenade and visible to Hwy 5 to the north. West -Over main entrance and fronting the parking lot, also visible to Market Blvd. East -Fronting Main Street South -Fronting Lake Drive Signage on each elevation is proposed as individual internally illuminated channel letters, 42" in height on the North and West elevations and 30" in height on the East and south elevations, and placed in a consistent fashion/signage band detail. The total area of each sign as proposed is well below the allowable signage area as per City ordinance, as illustrated and enumerated on the attached exterior elevation drawings. A variance is required due to a clause in the VOP Development Design Standards, restricting wall letters to a maximum of 30" in height. While this standard may be suitable for small shop space or for visibility and legibility from directly abutting streets or at pedestrian scale, this is far too limiting and ineffective for our proposed use. We also feel that it is not of a scale consistent with the massing and dimensions of our proposed building. It should also be noted that when the Pond Promenade PUD was approved in 1996 it was one of the pioneering new urbanism projects in the Metropolitan area. During this period communities and planners had a general attitude that merchant signs should be minimal and generic. The current trend as evidenced by the relaxing of most municipal sign codes is that adequate signage is not only critical to a merchants success but can add vibrant and creative design elements to a project while adding distinction and variety to a neighborhood. Highly visible and legible signage is critical to the success and viability of a grocery operation with a regional draw. This parcel as situated has critical sightlines to Hwy 5 and to Market Blvd, however it is set back from Hwy 5 by approximately 550', and from Market Blvd by approximately 620'. Providing effective identification and signage to passing motorists is essential. Signage, if restricted to 30" letter height, will prove ineffective 0 0 .Research as compiled by the United States Sign Council, studying legibility of signage parallel to roadways from moving vehicles is summarized in the table below. This table only calculates recommended letter heights up to a distance of 400' from the roadway, however even at 400' (highlighted in yellow) the recommended legible sizes exceed 80" in height. The 42" height that we are requesting is obviously well below this recommendation, but it will provide some level of effectiveness that could not be achieved with the 30" restriction. The 42" height is also consistent with other locations of our tenant, and in keeping with their minimum standards. For additional reference I also highlighted in red the effective distance for viewing signage with 30" letters. This approximate 100' distance is consistent with my comments above, suggesting this sizing is suitable for pedestrian scale or viewing from directly abutting roadways.

Note on this table that from the distances we are offset from the major roadways, signage with the best impact is 42" to 60' high. This does not take into account the limited viewing time that is possible when in a moving vehicle, or when concentrating on driving the vehicle, as is accounted for in table above. n �.

Hempel Assistant City Engineer City of Chanhassen FROM: Dennis R. Eyler, P.E., Principal Marie K. Cote, P.E., Senior Engineer DATE: August 9, 1996 SUBJECT: REVIEW OF EAW TRAFFIC IMPACT -VILLAGES ON THE POND As you requested, we have completed a review of the traffic analysis and forecast for the Villages on the Pond EAW. This included a review of the trip generation, traffic forecast and analysis, and mitigation. Based on our review and analysis, we offer the following comments for your consideration: • According to the information in the EAW, we concur with the trip generation, traffic forecast and capacity analyses for the unsignalized and signalized intersections. The 10% multi-purpose reduction mentioned on page 22 did not seem to be applied to the trip generation rates or calculation. However, it is possible that the reduction was made manually in the trip distribution. • An analysis of recommended geometrics for the proposed development was conducted to determine whether the intersections of Market Boulevard and Lake Drive West, and Great Plains Boulevard and Lake Drive East could operate as right -in, right -out only. Shown on the Site Plan, Figure 3, the intersection of Market Boulevard and Lake Drive West is approximately 400 feet south of TH 5. According to Table 6, the proposed geometrics for Build conditions are two through lanes and a right turn lane for the north approach, a left turn lane, two through SRF Consulting Group, Inc. One Carlson Parkway North, Suite 150, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55447-4443 Telephone (612) 475-0010 • Fax (612) 475-2429 An Equal Opportunity Employer SCANNED 0 0 David C. Hempel - 2 - August 9, 1996 lanes and a right turn lane for the south approach, a right turn lane for the east approach, and a right and left turn lane for the west approach. It is recommended in the EAW that the east approach operate with right -in, right - out access. According to Mn/DOT guidelines, full access intersections should be located a minimum of 600 feet from a major signalized intersection. Since this intersection is less than the required 600 foot minimum, we would concur with Mn/DOT's guidelines and recommend that this intersection operate with right in/right out access only. In regards to access circulation, Lake Drive West extends to Power Boulevard to the west. This connection would provide an alternate access to and from the proposed developments. The full access intersection on Market Boulevard at Lake Drive to the south would also provide an alternate route to and from the proposed developments. The intersection of Great Plains Boulevard and Lake Drive East is approximately 450 feet south of TH 5. The proposed geometrics for this intersection are a left turn lane, a through lane and a right turn lane for the north and south approaches, and a left turn lane and a through/right turn lane for the east and west approaches. This intersection includes two private roadways and two public roadways. Great Plains Boulevard provides local access to the proposed development and through traffic is not the main issue. Therefore, we would recommend that this intersection remain a full access intersection. July 9, 1996 Mr. Dennis Eiler 0 0 CITY OF CHANHASSEN 690 COULTER DRIVE • P.O.

Would you please review the traffic analysis and forecast within the document and let me know if there are other traffic concerns that may have been overlooked. We are especially concerned with the proposed full intersections at Market Boulevard and Lake Drive, as well as Great Plains Boulevard and Lake Drive. We feel that these intersections may be able to function as right -in, right -out only. I would appreciate your comments back as soon as possible as this item is going forward for preliminary plat approval on July 17, 1996 at the Planning Commission level and City Council on the August 12, 1996 Council agenda.{. Please call me with a cost estimate for the services requested herein.

Hempel 1 Assistant City Engineer DCH:jms 1 Enclosure 1 C Charles Folch, Director of Public Works Kate Aanenson, Planning Director ' ��StJIgW 3VCV[�QS�Y,IIBf,'[SC9W 1 Villages on the Ponds July 17, 1996, July 24, 1996 and August 12, 1996 Page 40 ' believes that all the sanitary sewer and water lines with the exception of the individual building services should be owned and maintained by the City upon completion. The applicant will be required to enter into a development contract with the City and provide financial security in the form of a letter of credit to guarantee compliance with the terms stipulated in the development contract. Detailed construction plans and specifications will be required in conjunction with final platting. The construction plans and specifications shall be prepared in accordance with the City's latest edition of Standard Specifications and Detail Plates. ' The construction plans and specifications will be subject to staff review and formal approval by the City Council in conjunction with final plat approval. Fire hydrant placement and revisions to the utility plan layout will occur during review of the construction plans and specifications. ' During construction of the utilities, the applicant's engineer shall provide on-site inspection services to certify upon completion that the utilities have been constructed in accordance with the approved plans. As -built construction plans will also be required before acceptance of the tutilities by the City. The site contains an existing home on Lot 1, Block 2 west of Trunk Highway 101. This structure will eventually be razed in conjunction with the development. The existing residential well will need to be abandoned per State health codes and sanitary service will also need to be disconnected at the main. Drainage and utility easements will need to be dedicated on the final plat over the sanitary sewer and watermains. The easement width will depend on the depth of the sanitary sewer. At a minimum, a 20 -foot drainage and utility easement should be dedicated over each line. STREETS ' Subdivision of this parcel will require the vacation of Great Plains Boulevard (Old Trunk Highway 101) and portions of Trunk Highway 101 (Market Boulevard). At this time, the City does not have the authority to vacate the right-of-ways since MnDOT has not formally turned back the road jurisdiction to the City and/or Carver County. The turnback involves a conglomerate of agreements that need to occur between MnDOT and Hennepin County, Carver County, Scott County, and the City of Chanhassen. These agreement are anticipated to be finalized and signed by MnDOT sometime this fall. Portions of this plat are dependent upon the ' vacation of these right-of-ways before being recorded. Streets within the subdivision are proposed to be private with the exceptions of TrunLHighway 101 (Market Boulevard) and a small portion of Lake Drive at the easterly end of the plat. During conceptual review of the development, staff indicated that Lake Drive is designated as a collector street on the City's Comprehensive Plan as well as listed as a Municipal State Aid Route. I 0 Villages on the Ponds ' July 17, 1996, July 24, 1996 and August 12, 1996 ' Page 41 Therefore, the street would have to be built to State Aid standards. Given the issue of on -street ' parking and some unique aesthetic design elements, staff has re-evaluated its position. With the current design proposal, Lake Drive will actually function more as a main street for this development rather then a collector through street for the City. For this reason and given the type ' of unique pavement design, parking configurations and landscaping improvements, staff has decided to allow Lake Drive to be built, owned, and maintained as a private street. This will improve building setback requirements, construction costs for the applicant, and reduce ' maintenance demands on the City, i.e. snowplowing. As a result of this action, the City will need to request MnDOT to revoke the MSAS status. A small portion of Lake Drive at the easterly end of the project will be dedicated and built as a public street which will provide a new street access , to Grandview Road. Currently, Grandview Road is a private gravel street serving six homes with the potential of further subdividing once sewer and water becomes available. A secondary access t point is also being provided to Grandview Road through Lot 10, Block 1 (St. Hubert's Church site). ' The preliminary plat proposes to dedicate a 25 -foot wide right-of-way along the east portion of the plat through Lot 8 and 10, Block 1. Upon review of the existing Grandview Road alignment, it appears the 25 -foot wide right-of-way could be reduced to 17 feet, however, it needs to be ' extended southerly to parallel Grandview Road until Grandview Road turns easterly. This will impact the location of the retaining walls and parking as shown on Lot 10, Block 1. ' The preliminary plat is proposing to dedicate right-of-way for Lake Drive and the new access street to Grandview Road. Staff believes that the cul-de-sac street for Grandview Road can be reduced down to a 31 -foot wide street with a temporary turnaround. The street section for the public portion of Lake Drive shall be constructed to 36 feet wide, face-to-face with concrete curb and gutter. The street section which access Grandview Road within the plat shall be construction to 31 feet wide, back-to-back with concrete curb and gutter. A temporary cul-de-sac with a 50- ' foot radius will also need to be constructed at the end of the public street (Grandview Road). Private streets shall be constructed in accordance with the City's private street ordinance which requires a minimum 26 -foot wide drive aisles. The development proposes to meet these drive ' aisle requirements with the except of the hotel/restaurant site where the narrative on the plans indicated 22 -foot wide drive aisles in these areas. The drive aisles will need to be increased to facilitate turning movements, delivery vehicles, and safety apparatuses. public The plans are proposing full access points onto Trunk Highway 101 (Market Boulevard) at Lake _ Drive, Great Plains Boulevard (Main Street), and across from Rosemount's driveway.%Staff has serious safety concerns with the full access across from existing Lake Drive given the_close proximity to Trunk Highway 5 and existing roadway geometries. Staff believes that a right -in, right -out only may be permitted after further traffic studies are compiled and reviewed by the City. Villages on the Ponds July 17, 1996, July 24, 1996 and ' August 12, 1996 Page 42 A development of this size will require traffic control improvements along Trunk Highway 101 (Market Boulevard) and Great Plains Boulevard, as well as, Main Street. This includes constructing all or portions of future Trunk Highway 101 to four lanes with auxiliary tum lanes and traffic signals at Trunk Highway 101 and proposed Lake Drive. Staff is also concerned that ' eventually a traffic signal will also be warranted at Trunk Highway 101 and Main Street (access south of Lake Drive). Both traffic signals will require meeting a signal justification report prior to installation with MnDOT. All Trunk Highway 101 improvements will need to meet State Aid ' standards. MnDOT will also be required to approve all access points on Trunk Highway 101. A cost-sharing agreement for the installation of any traffic signals will need to be drafted. A ' breakdown of the cost participation would be based on jurisdictional entrance percentage. For example, a signal on Trunk Highway 101 at Lake Drive would be split 501/6 MnDOT, County or City, 37% Villages on the Pond, and Rosemount 12%. Depending on phasing of the development, traffic signals or improvements to Trunk Highway 101 may not immediately be warranted, therefore, staff recommends that the applicant set up a financial escrow account with the City to guarantee future modifications along Trunk Highway 101. The financial guarantee ' may be in the form of a letter of credit or certificate of deposit assuming that these improvements are not installed with Phase I. Upon review of the interior drive aisles and parking lots, staff has concerns with the northerly east/west drive aisle west of Main Street. This drive aisle will act as a thoroughfare for traffic. The proposed parking stalls will create turning movements and pedestrian crossings which could ' lead to a potentially hazardous situation. Staff is recommending that the northerly parking stalls be eliminated and parking permitted only on the south side of the drive aisle adjacent to retail shops. These parking lot configurations will be further evaluated with the individual site plan ' submittals. For the most part, the main street drive aisle configurations throughout the development appears acceptable with the exception of drive aisles at the intersection of Trunk Highway 101 and Great Plains Boulevard. At these intersections, the streets are narrowed down ' from 44 feet wide to 26 feet wide. Staff believes that an additional right tum lane will need to be incorporated which will increase the drive aisle width to 38 feet to accommodate the tum lanes. ' A right turn lane should also be constructed on northbound Lake Drive at Great Plains Boulevard. t In conjunction with -private streets, cross -access easements and maintenance agreements will need to be prepared by the applicant. The cross -access easements should also qualify she secondary access road for public use to Grandview Road. ' Detailed construction plans and specifications will be required for all public streets. The plans and specifications should be prepared in accordance with the City's latest edition of Standard 1 Villages on the Ponds July 17, 1996, July 24, 1996 and , August 12, 1996 Page 43 Specifications and Detail Plates. The construction plans and specifications will be subject to ' staff review and formal approval by City Council. Some of the plans indicate Lake Drive being dedicated with an 80 -foot wide right-of-way. ' However, the preliminary plat indicates the street will fall within Outlot A which is proposed at 60 feet wide. The proposed private street segment, 44 feet in width, will fit within the 60 width. , However, portions of the sidewalk area will need to be located on the individual lots to facilitate the pedestrian plaza and wide sidewalks envisioned for Lake Drive. PLANNING COMMISSION UPDATE ' The Planning Commission held a public hearing on July 17, 1996 to review the proposed ' development. The Planning Commission tabled the item to permit staff and the applicant the opportunity to clarify the vision for the Village Pond, to analyze parking, to permit the Park & Recreation Commission to make a recommendation on the location of the proposed soccer field, ' to create a written definition of the "village character", and to modify the Development Design Standards. ' The Planting Commission held a second hearing on July 24, 1996 to review the development. The Planning Commission voted four for, zero against, with one abstention to recommend approval of the development subject to the conditions, as modified, below. t The Planning Commission did express some concern regarding the open-ended approval provided with a PUD, with the potential for portions of the project to remain undeveloped for ' several years and changing conditions and ordinances taking place that are not applicable to this development. Staff had proposed language that would require the development be reviewed by the city five years after final development approval to determine if the design standards and conditions of approval were still appropriate and permitted the city to revise the conditions then. However, the applicant and Planning Commission were concerned that the uncertainty contained in such a condition may financing for the project. The Planning Commission requested ' preclude that staff and the city attorney develop some language that addressed this concern. Staff has discussed this issue with the city attorney. He suggested that the following language be "For two years following final approval of the development, no changes in official ' controls of the city shall affect the development." I Villages on the Ponds ' July 17, 1996, July 24, 1996 and August 12,1996 ' Page 5 mitigation is done on site. Based on the city's tree preservation ordinance and without additional ' tree preservation or loss, the development would be required to provide replacement plantings of 206 trees. ' Traffic: A traffic operation analysis of the proposed development was completed to document the intersections affected by the proposed development, to estimate the average daily traffic with the proposed development, to identify capacity limitations, and to identify potential mitigative ' measures. Regional access to the site is provided east and west by TH 5 and north and south by TH 101. Local site access is through TH 101 (Market Boulevard) on the west and Great Plains Boulevard and Lake Drive East on the east. ' The analysis demonstrates that the change in operations from the existing conditions at the ' intersection along TH 5 are not solely due to the proposed development. The background traffic growth in the area accounts for 45 to 65 percent of the traffic forecast at the two TH 5 intersections. Even without the project generated traffic, traffic volumes are expected to be near ' or over capacity due to background traffic growth. The traffic analysis concluded that the predicted traffic generated by the site does not ' significantly change the level of service that would occur without the project. Mitigation measures suggested do not alleviate the problem. The source of traffic congestion is beyond the control of this project. Traffic mitigation would require the provision of an alternate traffic ' system on TH 5 such as proposed on TH 212. Conclusion: There appear to be no significant environmental issues requiring further ' investigation prior to project commencement. Required on site utility and transportation improvements will be designed and constructed as part of the project. The wetland loss will be mitigated in full compliance with city, state, and federal requirements. Tree loss will be replaced ' pursuant to the city tree preservation ordinance and site plan landscaping requirements. The project has been planned to minimize future environmental impacts and will be constructed with significant emphasis on control of erosion and sedimentation control. ' Staff believes that there are numerous potential benefits for mixed use projects. A mixed use ' development would be unique to the city and would provide a focal point on the fringe of the downtown area and additional_ vitality to the community. The village concept provides a pedestrian fiiendlyenvironmentand th rovisio:oftransit services where people can live, ' work, and play, elements which are found in neotraditional development principals and the livable communities act. 1 Villages on the Ponds July 17, 1996, July 24, 1996 and ' August 12, 1996 Page 48 ' 29. The applicant shall develop a sediment and erosion control plan in accordance with the City's Best Management Practice Handbook (BMPH). Type III erosion control fencing will be ' required around the wetlands. The site may also require additional erosion control fence on the slopes and/or temporary sediment basins. Wood fiber blankets shall be utilized on all slopes in excess of 3:1. ' 30. Drainage and conservation easements shall be dedicated over all wetland areas within the subdivision including outlots.

Buffer strips shall be provided around Wetland 5000. The buffer strips shall be 10 to 30 feet in width with an average width of 20 feet ' 34. The street section for the public portion of Lake Drive shall be constructed to 36 -feet wide face- to-face with concrete curb and gutter. The street section which accesses Grandview Road within the plat shall be constructed to 31 -feet wide back-to-back with concrete curb and gutter. A temporary cul-de-sac with a 25 -foot radius shall be constructed at the end of the public street for Grandview Road. All private streets shall be constructed in accordance with the City's private street ordinance which requires a minimum 26 -foot wide drive aisles and built to 7 -ton ' design. 35. Depending on the phasing of the project, Trunk Highway 101 may need to be upgraded to four ' lanes, as well as, turn lanes and traffic signals. This will be further evaluated contingent upon the outcome of the traffic study being reviewed by SRF. The applicant shall incorporate the ' necessary traffic improvements as recommended by SRF accordingly. Should the traffic signals not be required with the initial phase of development, the applicant will be required to escrow with the City their fair share of the cost for future installation. Security shall be a means of a ' letter of credit or a certificate of deposit. All Trunk Highway 101 improvements shall meet State Aid standards. The applicants responsibility for the traffic signals along Tntnkliighway, 101 shall be 37% of the total cost. A cost sharing agreement between the applicant and City ' shall be drafted for the installation of any traffic signals. January 28, 1997 Ms. Julie Long BRW Thresher Square 700 Third Street South Minneapolis, MN 55415 VIA FACSIMILE Re: Great Plains Boulevard Street Modification - Villages on the Ponds Project No. 96-13 Dear Julie: Upon review of the memo from BRW dated July 29, 1996 regarding development traffic, we are requesting the following modifications to Great Plains Boulevard to accommodate trip generations from the Villages on the Ponds development: Provide a 14 -foot wide right tum on southbound Great Plains Boulevard into the development at Lake Drive East as shown on the attached drawing. 2. Provide an auxiliary 14 -foot wide tum lane on northbound Great Plains Boulevard at Lake Drive East as shown on the attached drawing. 3. Restripe painted median and turn lanes as shown on the attached drawing. Redo the driveway entrance to the development off Lake Drive East for a 28 -foot minimum wide drive aisle into the site centered upon existing Lake Drive East. Currently, the drive access is 52 according to MnDOT plans. 4. Provide a raised concrete median on Great Plains Boulevard south of Lake Drive East as shown. In the future, as development occurs on the American Legion site, the existing access to Total Mart may be closed off and traffic routed via the American Legion driveway. The Legion's driveway will also be restricted to a right -in right -out only in the future. We will require the developer of that site to extend the median south, thus closing of the access point. a 0 Ms. Julie Long January 28, 1997 Page 2 Please incorporate these changes in your street construction plans for the development. The section of Great Plains Boulevard from Trunk Highway 5 to Grandview Road will be a public street, therefore, plans should be prepared in accordance with the City's Standard Specifications and Detail Plates.

Traffic. Parking spaces added 22192. Existing spaces (if project involves expansion) Q. Estimated total Average Daily Traffic (ADT) generated 14.800. Estimated maximum peak hour traffic generated (if known) and its timing: approximately 1.500 for both the AM peak (7-9:00 AM) and the PM peak (4-6:00 PM). For each affected road indicate the ADT and the directional distribution of traffic with and without the project. Provide ar estimate of the impact on traffic congestion on the affected roads and describe any traffic improvements which will be necessary. Response: A traffic operations analysis of the proposed development was completed in order to document the following issues: • Identification of principal roads, highways, and intersections that will be used by motor vehicles moving to or from the proposed project. • Estimates of average daily traffic volumes and peak hour traffic volumes anticipated to occur one year after the proposed project will be substantially complete and operational. • Identification of traffic impacts that would result given the capacity limitations of the roads, highways, and intersections and the forecast post -development traffic volumes. • Identification of mitigation measures that can be implemented to address traffic impacts. ACCESS ROADWAYS AND INTERSECTIONS Access Roadways Local access to the proposed site is to be provided directly by Great Plains Boulevard and Trunk Highway (TH) 101/Market Boulevard and indirectly by TH 5/Arboretum Boulevard. The project location and adjacent roadway system is shown in Figure 1. Great Plains Boulevard will act as one access to the development. In addition, five accesses are proposed off of TH 101, three accesses to the east and two accesses to the west. North of TH 5, Great Plains Boulevard is a north -south, two-lane roadway with no parking and a posted speed limit of 30 miles per hour (mph). South of TH 5, Great Plains Boulevard is proposed to be designed as a two-lane roadway with parking bays on both sides of the street and a maximum posted speed limit of 30 mph. The purpose of this section of Great Plains Boulevard will be to provide a direct route for the heaviest movements into and out of the development. North of TH 5, Market Boulevard is a north -south, two-lane roadway with no parking and a posted speed limit of 30 mph. For approximately 1,000 feet south of TH 5, TH 101 is a north -south, four -lane divided highway with left- and right -turn lanes before tapering into a two-lane roadway. TH 101, from TH 5 south to County State Aide Highway (CSAH) 18/Lyman Boulevard, is planned to be upgraded to a four -lane divided roadway with left- and right -turn lanes. This section of TH 101 does not allow parking and the posted speed limit is 40 mph. TH 5 is an east -west, four -lane divided highway with left- and right -tum lanes at major intersections. Access onto TH 5 near the proposed development is excluded to major cross -streets with no driveway access. W TH 5 does not allow parking and the posted speed limit is 55 mph. The site plan is shown on Figure 3. Regional access to the proposed site is provided east and west by TH 5 and north and south by TH 101. TH 5 provides direct access from the southwest suburbs to I-494 and the rest of the regional road system. TH 101 provides access to TH 212 and TH 169 approximately 3 miles south of the proposed development. • TH 101 and Main Street The two intersections on TH 5 are controlled by traffic signals. The remaining access intersections are proposed to be unsignalized with no control on TH 101 and Great Plains Boulevard and stop control on the minor roadways (Lake Drive and Main Street). The existing road geometrics and traffic control are shown in Figure 10 and Table 3. EXISTING TRAFFIC CONDITIONS Existing traffic data is collected because the information is a key component used in the analysis of existing conditions and in producing forecast volumes. The existing data gathered includes: • The existing two-way Average Daily Traffic (ADT) volumes on TH 5, TH 101/ Market Boulevard and Great Plains Boulevard were recorded by BRW, Inc. on March 22-24, 1996. • The existing peak hour turning movement volumes and geometrics were collected by BRW, Inc. on March 23, 1996 from 6:00 to 9:00 AM and 4:00 to 6:00 PM at the following locations: (1) The intersection of TH 5 and TH 101/Market Boulevard (2) The intersection of TH 5 and Great Plains Boulevard • The existing traffic signal timing was obtained from Mn/DOT for the AM and PM peak hours of operation at the following locations: (1) The intersection of TH 5 and TH 101/Market Boulevard (2) The intersection of TH 5 and Great Plains Boulevard •_3585 21 Access Intersections Six critical intersections were identified for analysis: TH 5 and TH 101/Market Boulevard TH 5 and Great Plains Boulevard Great Plains Boulevard and Lake Drive East TH 101 and Lake Drive West • TH 101 and Lake Drive (through development) • TH 101 and Main Street The two intersections on TH 5 are controlled by traffic signals. The remaining access intersections are proposed to be unsignalized with no control on TH 101 and Great Plains Boulevard and stop control on the minor roadways (Lake Drive and Main Street). The existing road geometrics and traffic control are shown in Figure 10 and Table 3.

SITE GENERATED TRAFFIC Trip Generation The trip generation of the proposed land uses are based on national average trip generation rates from the Trip Generation Report, Fifth Edition published by the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) in 1991. The number of daily, AM and PM peak hour trips expected to be generated by each of the proposed land uses are shown on Table 4. The proposed site includes nine areas of development and eight different land uses. The proposed plan contains 391,000 gross square feet (sf) of mixed use commercial development and 266 dwelling units. The proposed development includes: • 16,800 sf for three restaurants • 47,000 sf church • 53,000 sf elementary school • 104,500 sf of office space in six buildings • 122,500 sf of retail space in four locations • 106 -room motel • 154 apartment units in four buildings • 112 condominium units in two buildings. The proposed development also includes an alternative land use plan. This alternative plan involves adding 13,000 sf of office space in Area 6 and replacing the 32,000 sf of office space in Area 7 with 56 condominium units. For purposes of the, trip generation analysis both the proposed land use and the alternative land use were analyzed and compared. The proposed land use generated greater AM and PM peak hour volumes; therefore, the volumes generated by the proposed land use were used for further analysis in this report. Because of the mixture of land use types proposed for this development, some of the trips generated are expected to be internal, multi-purpose trips. The Trip Generation Manual suggests developments with a mixture of residential and commercial land uses produce the highest multi-purpose trips. Based on this information, 10 percent of the trips generated were assumed to be internal, multi-purpose trips. In addition, number of the trips generated by the site are expected to be vehicles traveling on the adjacent roadways which utilize the convenience of the direct access to the development and make an intermediate stop even though the proposed site was not their primary destination. The Trip Generation Manual refers to these intermediate stops as "pass -by trips". The pass -by trips were not taken into consideration when developing the trip generation for the proposed development. Therefore, the site generated traffic will probably be lower than the trip generation indicates, and the analysis based on the higher trip generation will produce conservative results. qT J� Nn585 22 TABLE 3 EXISTING CONDITIONS PEAK HOUR VOLUMES AND GEOMETRICS (t) Notes: (1) The carrot symbols > or < identify where a right or left movement shares the same lane with the through movement.

Fifty percent of the total daily trips are expected to be inbound to the development and 50 percent are expected to be outbound from the development for a total of 7,405 vehicles per day (vpd) both entering and exiting the development. The distribution of vehicles in the AM peak hour is expected to be 56 percent inbound and 44 percent outbound or 855 vehicle „ trips entering and 665 vehicle trips exiting. The distribution of vehicles in the PM U peak hour is expected to be 48 percent inbound and 52 percent outbound or 715 vehicles entering and 775 vehicles exiting. Directional Trip Distribution The directional orientation used to distribute the site -generated trips to/from the proposed development is based on two sets of information: the existing traffic demands and the regional traffic model for the twin cities metro area. The directional trip distribution assumed for the site is shown on Figure 15. TRAFFIC FORECASTS In order to analyze the potential traffic impacts that the expected future development will have on the adjacent roadway system, traffic volumes were prepared for the forecast Year 2002 background (no -build) and post -development (build) conditions. The forecast no -build volumes consist of the existing volumes plus a background traffic growth. The forecast build volumes consist of the background volumes plus the site -generated trips for the proposed development distributed over the roadway network. Background Traffic Growth The background traffic growth was determined from two sets of information: by analysis of historical traffic counts for the roadways in the area and from historic land development patterns in the Chanhassen Central Business District (CB15) provided by the City staff. The ADT volumes reported on the Mn/DOT Traffic Flow M_ps from 1978 to 1994 were used in combination with the 1996 ADT count conducted by BRW, Inc., to develop average annual growth rates along TH 5, TH 101/Market Boulevard, Great Plains Boulevard and Lake Drive. These growth rates were then adjusted based on the City of Chanhassen's assessment of growth in the area. An average annual growth rate of three percent was determined for TH 5, TH 101 south of TH 5, and Lake Drive west of TH 101. A growth rate of one-half percent was used for Market Boulevard and Great Plains Boulevard, both north of TH 5, due to lack of area remaining for new development in the downtown area. A one-half percent growth rate was also used for Lake Drive east of Great Plains Boulevard. Finally, a zero percent growth rate was used for Great Plains Boulevard south of TH 5. The residential neighborhoods in the area east of Great Plains Boulevard are mostly built -out and Great Plains Boulevard will be designed to provide direct access into the proposed development. Any growth in traffic along Great Plains Boulevard will be accounted for by the site -generated traffic. . rias 25 I 0 0 These growth rates were applied to the existing daily volumes along TH 5, TH 101 / Market Boulevard, Great Plains Boulevard and Lake Drive to develop background growth traffic volumes. These results are shown in Figure 11 and Table 5 for the intersection turning movement volumes as Year 2002 no -build volumes. Forecast Traffic Volumes In order to analyze the potential traffic impacts that the proposed development will have on the adjacent roadway system, post -development traffic volume forecasts were prepared for the Year 2002 conditions. The forecast volumes consist of the existing volumes plus background traffic growth plus the site -generated trips for the proposed land uses. The resulting forecast Year 2002 build AM and PM peak hour turning movement volumes for the two intersections along TH 5 are illustrated in Figure 12. The existing peak hour turning movement counts were not available for the four unsignalized access intersection; therefore, the following assumptions were made in developing the AM and PM peak hour turning movement volumes. • The AM and PM peak hour volumes were assumed to be 10 percent of the ADT on Lake Drive. • The directional distribution along Lake Drive was assumed to be a 50/50 split for both the AM and PM peak hours. • The directional distribution along TH 101 and Great Plains Boulevard was based on the peak hour tum movements at the two TH 5 signalized intersections. The directional distribution along TH 101 was assumed to be a 40/60, northbound/ southbound split in the AM peak hour and a 60/40, northbound/ southbound split in the PM peak hour. The directional distribution along Great Plains Boulevard was assumed to be a 60/40, northbound/southbound split for both the AM and PM peak hours. • The geometry assumed at each access entrance included a left- ancf right -tum lane off of the major street (TH 101 or Great Plains Boulevard) and two lanes outbound from the development (either a left -tum lane and a right -turn lane or, where appropriate, a left -turn lane and a shared through/right-turn lane). l.� • For the forecast build conditions at the intersection of TH 101 and Lake Drive West, the east approach from the development was assumed to provide right -in and right -out movements only. • No site generation volumes were available for the Rosemount, Inc. building which will share the west approach to the intersection of TH 101 and Lake Drive through the site as one of its accesses. Therefore, only the trip generation from the proposed development was used for this west approach only.

FORECAST TRAFFIC ANALYSES iCapacity Analysis A capacity analysis is a qualitative measure, of traffic flow through an intersection or ' along a roadway segment. The basic output from a capacity analysis is a level of service (LOS) letter grade (A through F) with LOS A representing minimal delays and no congestion, and LOS F representing substantial delays and congestion. LOS E is 1 considered to be the actual capacity of an intersection or movement. Level of service D is generally considered to be an acceptable level of traffic operations in urbanized areas during the peak traffic hours. Level of service E and F are common during peak hour conditions in urbanized areas for left -tum movements at unsignalized intersections. Capacity analyses were conducted using the traffic volumes and geometrics illustrated previously in Figures 10, 11 and 12 and documented in Tables 3, 4 and 5, at the following six locations: (1) The intersection of TH 5 and TH 101/Market Boulevard (2) The intersection of TH 5 and Great Plains Boulevard (3) Great Plains Boulevard and Lake Drive East (4) TH 101 and Lake Drive West (5) TH 101 and Lake Drive (through development) L{,aowC-1 inch.

By providing extra time for the major movements, the cross -street movements and the major street left -tum movements will experience more delay. A similar timing plan was used for the build conditions where extra green time was provided for the TH 5 through volumes. "23W 29 When the volume approaches or exceeds the capacity for a movement the delay grows at an increased rate. Rather than report an approximation of this increased delay, the analysis reports the movement(s) which are above capacity and does not report delay for the intersection. In order to compare the no -build and build conditions where the intersection level of service is F and no intersection delay is reported, the planning analysis from the 1985 HCM was used to supplement the results of the 1994 Update to the HCM analysis. The planning analysis is a method which provides a basic assessment relative to whether the capacity of an intersection is expected to be exceeded. The analysis sums the volume for the critical movements at an intersection. If the sum of the critical volumes is below 1,200 vehicles in the peak hour, the intersection is expected to be under capacity. If the sum of the critical volumes is from 1,200 to 1,400 vehicles in the peak hour the intersection is expected to be near capacity. If the sum of the critical volumes is greater than 1,400 vehicles in the peak hour, then the volume is expected to exceed the capacity of the intersection. "585 30 U The results of the capacity analysis for the existing, Year 2002 no -build, and Year 2002 build conditions are shown in Tables 7 and 8 for the two signalized intersections and for the four unsignahzed intersections, respectively. The signalized intersections level of service table provides the intersection level of service and intersection delay results for the AM and PM peak hours. The unsignalized intersection level of service table provides the major and minor street level of service and delay by movements and the Uintersection delay results for the AM and PM peak hours. All four of the right -turn movements at the intersection of TH 5 and TH 101/Market Boulevard have their own lane and a channelization island. There are also right -turn lanes and channelization islands for the east and west approach right -turn movements on TH 5 at the Great Plains Boulevard intersection. Therefore, these right -tum movements were analyzed as free right conditions which means they do not effect the signal timing operations at the intersections. The remaining two right -tum movements for the north and south approaches on Great Plains Boulevard have their own lane but do not have a channelization island. The analysis assumed that for every two vehicles turning left during the protected left -turn phase on TH 5, one vehicle would turn right -on -red from the north and south approaches on Great Plains iBoulevard. �1 The capacity analysis is an indication of how conditions are likely to be during weekday peak hours only and not at other times of the day or on weekends. The results of the signalized intersection analysis are as follows: • For the existing conditions, both intersections along TH 5 are reported to operate at LOS C in the AM and PM peak hours. • For the forecast no -build conditions, both intersections along TH 5 are expected to operate at LOS C and D in the AM and PM peak hours, respectively. • For the forecast build conditions, the intersection of TH 5 and TH 101 is expected to operate at LOS D for both the AM and PM peak hours. The intersection of TH 5 and Great Plains Boulevard is expected to operate at LOS F for both the AM and PM peak hours. When the volume approaches or exceeds the capacity for a movement the delay grows at an increased rate. Rather than report an approximation of this increased delay, the analysis reports the movement(s) which are above capacity and does not report delay for the intersection. In order to compare the no -build and build conditions where the intersection level of service is F and no intersection delay is reported, the planning analysis from the 1985 HCM was used to supplement the results of the 1994 Update to the HCM analysis. The planning analysis is a method which provides a basic assessment relative to whether the capacity of an intersection is expected to be exceeded. The analysis sums the volume for the critical movements at an intersection. If the sum of the critical volumes is below 1,200 vehicles in the peak hour, the intersection is expected to be under capacity. If the sum of the critical volumes is from 1,200 to 1,400 vehicles in the peak hour the intersection is expected to be near capacity. If the sum of the critical volumes is greater than 1,400 vehicles in the peak hour, then the volume is expected to exceed the capacity of the intersection.

The results indicate: I� For the existing conditions, the intersections of TH 5 and TH 101 is reported to operate under capacity in both the AM and PM peak hours. The intersection of TH 5 and Great Plains Boulevard is reported to operate under capacity in the AM peak hour and near capacity in the PM peak hour. The planning analysis helps demonstrate that the change in operations at the intersections along TH 5 from the existing conditions are not solely due to the additional traffic generated by the development. The background traffic growth in the area accounts for 45 to 65 percent of the traffic forecast at the two intersections along TH 5, varying by intersection during the peak hours. Even without the additional site -generated traffic in the forecast year, the volumes are expected to be near or over capacity due to the background traffic growth. Table 8 shows the results of the unsignalized intersection analysis. The analysis indicates that all of the unsignalized intersection movements currently operate at LOS C or better in both the AM and PM peak hours. For the forecast Year 2002 no -build condition, the analysis indicates that all of the intersection movements are expected to operate at LOS D or better in both the AM and PM peak hours.

' The traffic for the minor street left -turn movements at the unsignalized intersections are expected to experience some delay during the peak hour conditions. However, the intersection operations for the majority of the volume entering the unsignalized intersections are expected to operate at LOS A. This volume includes the through movement and right -tum movement volumes along the major street which are not required to stop. RECOMMENDED MITIGATION The following traffic mitigation measures are recommended based on the results of the preceding traffic capacity analysis and planning analysis. Mitigation is recommended for intersections where the volume approaches or exceeds the capacity for the current geometrics. The signalized intersections of TH 5 and TH 101/Market Boulevard is expected to operate at LOS D or better which is a satisfactory condition for the peak hours of operation. The intersection of TH 5 and Great Plains Boulevard is expected to have movements which approach or exceed the capacity; therefore, different forms of mitigation including adding double left -turn lanes, channelizing free right -tum lanes or a combination of both were considered. Table 7 shows the results of the most effective and reasonable mitigation at this intersectiones K,�j ovn bras^ak tlWhen the volume for a left -turn lane exceeds 300 vehicles, an additional left -tum lam n should be considered. The volume for the east approach left -tum movement into the development is expected to be near or over 300 vehicles in the peak hour. The addition of a second left -turn lane for the east approach on TH 5 is recommended at the intersection of TH 5 and Great Plains Boulevard. Adding a second left -turn lane is expected to improve the conditions at the Great Plains Boulevard intersection.. Another form of mitigation which should be considered at the TH 5 and Great Plains Boulevard intersection is either providing a free right for the south approach or extending the right -tum lane. This right -turn movement is expected to be heavily used by vehicles traveling east on TH 5 or north on TH 101. Although the through and left -tum movements for this south approach are low compared to the right -turn movement, extending the lane right -turn could help prevent the right -turn queue from blocking access to the through and left -turn lanes. Although these mitigations are expected to improve the intersection operations, they do not improve the overall intersection level of service. The intersection is expected to operate near capacity due to the heavy through movement on TH 5. No mitigation was identified to deal with the high volumes of traffic traveling in the through movements on TH 5. The through movements on TH 5 already receive the majority of the green time at the signalized intersections and are expected to continue to do so in the future. Therefore, the mitigation discussed above is aimed at improving the conditions for the other movements at the intersections. A common form of mitigation for unsignalized intersections is to install a traffic signal. Volumes at the unsignalized intersections were compared to the Peak Hour Volume Warrant as discussed in the Minnesota Manual on Uniform Traffic Control .zsses 34 r Devices (MMUTCD). Neither the AM nor the PM peak hour combination of major and minor street volumes were found to meet the Peak Hour Volume Warrant conditions for signalization at any of the four intersections. As stated earlier, level of service E or even F for left -tum movements from minor streets at unsignalized intersections during peak hour operations is common in urbanized areas. Gaps in traffic created by the traffic signals at the two TH 5 intersections will also improve the conditions for the left -tum movements from the development accesses. Therefore, no mitigation is recommended at any of the unsignalized intersections. 23. Vehicle -related Air Emissions. Provide an estimate of the effect of the project's traffic generation on air quality, including carbon monoxide levels. Discuss the effect of traffic improvements or other mitigation measures on air quality impacts. (If the project involves 500 or more parking spaces, consult EAW Guidelines about whether a detailed air quality analysis is needed.) Response: The proposed project will have 2,192 associated parking spaces. Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) rules require an Indirect Source Permit (ISP) for new development with over 2,000 parking spaces. The ISP regulates vehicular emissions of carbon monoxide (CO) from vehicles generated by proposed developments. The air quality impacts of the proposed project were addressed by modeling future traffic flow to predict carbon monoxide (CO) concentrations in the project area. The microscale air quality analysis was based on the traffic forecasts and operational analyses documented in Question #22 - Traffic. Total expected CO concentrations are the sum of local CO (determined through modeling) and background CO (determined by monitoring in the project area). Impacts were determined by comparing the forecast CO concentrations to the state ambient air quality standards for CO, shown in Table 9. These standards were established at levels to protect the most sensitive segments of the population and are not to be exceeded more than once per year.
