Staff is recommending approval with conditions. Notice of this public hearing has been mailed to all property owners within 500 feet. LEVEL OF CITY DISCRETION IN DECISION-MAKING: The City's discretion in approving or denying a preliminary plat is limited to whether or not the proposed plat meets the standards outlined in the Subdivision Regulations and Zoning Ordinance. 11 it meets these standards, the City must approve the preliminary plat. This is a quasi-judicial decision. The City has a relatively high level of discretion in approving a rezoning because the City is actin.- in ctingin its legislative or policy making capacity. A rezoning must be consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan. Location Map Yoberry Farm City of Chanhassen Planning Case No. 04-43 Subject Property Yoberry Farms Rezoning and Subdivision Planning Case No. 04-43 January 4, 2005 Page 2 PROPOSAUSUNIMARY The applicant is proposing to subdivide 35.79 acres into 57 single-family lots and 8 outlots. The property is zoned RR, Rural Residential, and the proposal calls for rezoning it to RSF, Residential Single Family. The applicant is also proposing to fill 0.05 acres (2,000 square feet) of wetland. The Minnesota Wetland Conservation Act, through the de minimis exemption (MR 8420.0122 Subp. 9), allows wetland impacts of 2,000 square feet or less without requiring an alternative analysis or wetland mitigation. The proposed wetland impacts equal 2,000 square feet, so no wetland replacement is required. A wetland exemption will be issued administratively by City staff prior to the commencement of grading on this project. The average lot size is 19,164 square feet with a resulting gross density of 1.59 units per acre and a net density of 1.88 units per acre. The site is located east of Highway 41, south of Highover Drive and north of Gunflint Trail. Access to the subdivision will be provided via Highover Drive to the north and Gunflint Trail to the south. All lots are proposed to be served via internal residential streets. All of the proposed lots meet the minimum area, width, and depth requirements of the Zoning Ordinance with the exception of a few parcels that require the shifting of some lines. These lots are listed under the compliance table. The lot lines can be easily adjusted to meet ordinance requirements. The subdivision is proposed to be developed in three additions. The central portion will be developed as the first addition, the north piece will be the second addition and the last segment — third addition, is the area occupying the southwest portion of the site. There are eight outlots shown on the plat. Outlot A of the first addition is proposed to be deeded to the neighboring property to the south, Outlots B and C will contain wetlands and storm water ponds, Outlot D will contain a sidewalk, and Outlots E, F, and G will be deeded to the neighboring lots to the north (when the applicant surveyed the land, it was discovered that the northern property line of Yoberry Farm ls` Addition did not abut the rear property lines from the Highover Addition lots. A 25 -foot wide strip of land Yoberry Farms Rezoning and Subdivision Planning Case No. 04-43 January 4, 2005 Page 3 was created. The applicant chose to split it equally between the Yober y Farm 1s` Addition and the Highover addition property owners). Outlot A of the 3`a Addition will contain a storm pond. The site consists of several parcels being assembled into one tract of land, and then subdivided. These parcels are owned by four individuals. Single-family homes and accessory structures exist on these parcels. Only the single-family homes are intended to remain. Five wetlands occupy the site. The site has bluffs and a meandering topography. The site has some mature trees. In summary, staff believes that the proposed subdivision is well designed. Minor revisions will be required. We are recommending that it be approved with conditions outlined in the staff report. REZONING The applicant is proposing to rezone the property from RR, Rural Residential, to RSF, Residential Single Family. The area to the north is zoned Residential Single Family. The area to the south and east is zoned Planned Unit Development — Residential. The area to the west is zoned Rural Residential and Planned Unit Development — Residential. All the surrounding property, with the exception of the area to the west of the subject site, is guided for Residential Low Density. The area to the west is guided Residential Low Density and Public/Semi Public. The 2020 Land Use Plan shows this area designated for development as Low Density Residential, 1.2 - 4.0 units per acre. Appropriate zoning for this land use is RSF, R4 or PUD -R. The applicant's proposal has a gross density of 1.59 units per acre and 1.88 units per acre net after the streets and wetlands are taken out. This area is in the MUSA. Staff is recommending that this area be rezoned to RSF and finds that the rezoning is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. PRELEMI NARY PLAT The applicant is proposing to subdivide a 35.79 -acre site into 57 single-family lots. The density of the proposed subdivision is 1.59 units per acre gross and 1.88 units per acre net after removing the roads and wetlands. All the lots exceed the minimum 15,000 square feet of area, with an average lot size of 19,164 square feet. All of the proposed lots meet the minimum width and depth requirements of the Zoning Ordinance with the exception of a few parcels that have deficient frontage. The lot lines can be easily adjusted to meet ordinance requirements. There are eight outlots shown on the plat. Outlot A of the first addition is proposed to be deeded to the neighboring property to the south, Outlots B and C will contain wetlands and storm water ponds, Outlot D will contain a neighborhood park, and Outlots E, F, and G will be deeded to the neighboring lots to the north (when the applicant surveyed the land, it was discovered that the northern property line of Yoberry Farm I" Addition did not abut the rear property lines from the Highover Addition lots. A 25 -foot wide strip of land was created. The applicant chose to split it equally between the Yober y Farm I" Addition and the Highover addition property owners). Outlot A of the 3'a Addition will contain a storm pond. Lots 3 through 8, Block 3, Lots 1 through 4, Block 4, and Lots 1 through 7, Block 5 abut wetlands. The applicant is proposing to outlot the wetlands. The ordinance requires all structures to maintain Yoberry Farms Rezoning and Subdivision Planning Case No. 04-43 January 4, 2005 Page 4 a 40 -foot setback from the outside edge of a wetland buffer strip. The ordinance also requires a buffer zone in addition to the wetland setback. A wetland buffer 16.5 feet in width must be maintained around Wetlands 2, 3, 4, and 5. A 20 -foot wetland buffer must be maintained around Wetland 1. Staff notes that the proposal is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and generally consistent with the Zoning Ordinance. WETLANDS Existing Wetlands Five wetlands exist on-site: one Natural wetland and four Ag/Urban wetlands. Kjolhaug Environmental Services delineated the wetlands in May 2004. The delineation was reviewed on- site by staff on October 22, 2004. The wetland numbering is not consistent between the wetland delineation and the plans. For the purposes of this report, staff used the wetland number from the plans. Wetland 4 is an Ag/Urban wetland (Type 1) located at the north edge of the property. The wetland is dominated by reed canary grass, spotted touch-me-not and box elder. No impacts are proposed to Wetland 4. Wetland 3 is an Ag/Urban wetland (Type 1) located southeast of Wetland 1. The wetland is dominated by reed canary grass. The applicant is proposing to fill the southeastern most portion of the wetland to accommodate a road. The total proposed impact to Wetland 3 is 1,577 square feet (0.04 acres). Wetland 2 is an Ag/Urban wetland ('Type 1) located in the southeastern corner of the property. The wetland is dominated by reed canary grass. The applicant is proposing to fill the northwestern most portion of the wetland to accommodate a road. The total proposed impact to Wetland 2 is 423 square feet (0.01 acres). Wetland 5 is an Ag/Urban wetland (Type 3) located in the southeast corner of the property. The wetland is dominated by cattail, reed canary grass, American elm and ash. No impacts are proposed to Wetland 5. Wetland 1 is a Natural wetland (Type 3) located west of Wetland 4 near the southeast comer of the property. The wetland is dominated by sedge and cattail. No impacts are proposed to Wetland 1. Wetland Impacts The Minnesota Wetland Conservation Act, through the de minimis exemption (MR 8420.0122 Subp. 9), allows wetland impacts of 2,000 square feet or less without requiring an alternative analysis or wetland mitigation. The proposed wetland impacts equal 2,000 square feet, so no Yoberry Farms Rezoning and Subdivision Planning Case No. 04-43 January 4, 2005 Page 5 wetland replacement is required. A wetland exemption will be issued administratively by City staff prior to the commencement of grading on this project. A wetland buffer 16.5 feet in width must be maintained around Wetlands 2, 3, 4 and 5. A wetland buffer 20 feet in width must be maintained around Wetland 1. Wetland buffer areas should be preserved, surveyed and staked in accordance with the City's wetland ordinance. The applicant should install wetland buffer edge signs, under the direction of City staff, before construction begins and must pay the City $20 per sign. All structures must maintain 40 -foot setbacks from wetland buffer edges. BLUFFS Two areas on the property have been identified as bluff (i.e., slope greater than or equal to 30% and a rise in slope of at least 25 feet above the toe). These areas must be preserved. In addition, all structures must maintain a 30 -foot setback from the bluff and no grading may occur within the bluff impact zone (i.e., the bluff and land located within 20 feet from the top of a bluff). SURFACE WATER MANAGEMENT FEES Water Quality Fees Because of the impervious surface associated with this development, the water quality fees for this proposed development are based on single-family residential development rates of $1,093/acre. Based on the proposed developed area of approximately 25.59 acres, the water quality fees associated with this project are $27,970. Water Quantity Fees The SWAP has established a connection charge for the different land uses based on an average citywide rate for the installation of water quantity systems. This cost includes land acquisition, proposed SWAP culverts, open channels, and storm water ponding areas for runoff storage. Single- family residential developments have a connection charge of $2,705 per developable acre. This results in a water quantity fee of approximately $69,221 for the proposed development. SWMP Credits This project proposes the construction of 2 NURP ponds and the provision of 2 outlet structures. At this time, the estimated total SWMP fee, due payable to the City at the time of final plat recording, is $97,191. OTHER AGENCIES The applicant should apply for and obtain permits from the appropriate regulatory agencies (e.g., Riley -Purgatory -Bluff Creek Watershed District, Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (NPDFS Phase H Construction Permit), Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (for dewatering), Yoberry Farms Rezoning and Subdivision Planning Case No. 04-43 January 4, 2005 Page 6 Minnesota Department of Transportation, Minnesota Department of Health) and comply with their conditions of approval. GRADING, DRAINAGE & EROSION CONTROL The existing site is about 36 acres and has tree cover over approximately 16 acres (45% of the parcel). The existing parcel has a wide variety of grade changes within its limits. The site elevations range from a high of 1084± to a low of 992±. These severe elevation differences make this site a challenging one to both develop and minimize grading. The plans propose to grade about 80% of the site for the 57 new house pads, a proposed street system, three cul-de-sacs and stormwater ponds. The proposed grading will prepare the site for full basement, look -out and walk -out type house pads. Retaining walls are proposed in numerous locations throughout the site. The applicant must be aware that any retaining wall over four feet in height must be designed by a registered civil engineer and a permit from the city building department must be obtained. In addition, encroachment agreements will be required for any retaining wall within a public easement. Staff is concerned with the large number of lots that have steep rear yard slopes off the house pad and very little useable rear yard. Staff is, therefore, recommending that all lots have a minimum useable area off the back of the house pad that is relatively flat with a maximum slope of 10:1. In addition, the eastern end of Gunflint Trail contains three retaining walls just off the right-of- way. To better match the existing grades and minimize the wall height on two of the retaining walls, staff is recommending that the applicant increase the street grades moving west from the cul-de-sac. This would lower the street in the area of the curve and existing wetland and decrease the amount of fill that is required. The existing site drainage is encompassed within three main drainage areas. Under existing conditions, the eastern portion of the site drains to an existing wetland complex to the east and south; the northwestern part of the site drains off-site to a western TH 41 ditch; and the southwestern part of the site drains off-site to the south. Under developed conditions, the applicant is proposing to capture the street drainage, front yard drainage and rear yard drainage from most of the lots. The stormwater that is captured will be conveyed via storm sewer to proposed ponds in the southeasterly and southwesterly corners of the site for treatment. The proposed ponds must be designed to National Urban Runoff Program (NURP) standards with maximum 3:1 slopes and a 10:1 bench at the NWL. Two storm water ponds are proposed in conjunction with this development. In addition, a temporary pond that was constructed with the Highover subdivision is proposed to remain. The applicant has indicated that he has met with the property owners of Lot 23, Block 3, Highover who are aware that the temporary pond will not be relocated. The applicant has submitted a letter from the owners of Lot 23, Block 3 that indicate they understand that the pond will not be moved. The pond built in conjunction with the Highover subdivision must be maintained to ensure it meets the size and volume standards to which it was originally designed. Any inlet and outlet structures on that pond requiring maintenance or replacement must be corrected. In addition, areas experiencing erosion due to storm water discharge must be stabilized. Yoberry Farms Rezoning and Subdivision Planning Case No. 04-43 January 4, 2005 Page 7 While the applicant is proposing to treat most of the site drainage with on-site ponding, there is a small area in the central portion of the site which will not be treated on site. Proposed catch basins at the intersection of Street B and Gunflint Trail will capture this drainage and connect with the existing storm sewer in Gunflint Trail. This storm sewer drains to an existing pond in the Longacres subdivision south of the site. Based on staff s review of the existing pond date, the existing pond is undersized for the proposed development area that will be draining to it from Yoberry Farm. The applicant will either have to expand the existing pond or provide onsite ponding for this area. Drainage calculations for the site have been submitted and some changes remain. The applicant is required to meet the existing site runoff rates for the 10 -year and 100 -year, 24-hour storm events. Storm sewer sizing calculations must be submitted at the time of final plat application. The storm sewer must be sized for a 10 -year, 24-hour storm event. Drainage and utility easements must be dedicated on the final plat over the public storm drainage system including ponds, drainage swales, and wetlands up to the 100 -year flood level. Proposed erosion control must be developed in accordance with the City's Best Management Practice Handbook (BMPH). Staff recommends that Type II silt fence, which is a heavy duty fence, be used adjacent to the existing wetlands and around the ponds. In addition, tree preservation fencing must be installed at the limits of tree removal. Erosion control blankets are recommended for all areas with a steep slope of 3:1 and an elevation drop of eight feet or greater. All disturbed areas, as a result of construction, must be seeded and mulched or sodded immediately after grading to minimize erosion. The applicant should be aware that any off-site grading will require an easement from the appropriate property owner. If importing or exporting material for development of the site is necessary, the applicant will be required to supply the City with detailed haul routes. Silt fence must be installed between wetland impact areas and the remaining wetland. All exposed soil areas should have temporary erosion protection or permanent cover year round, according to the following table of slopes and time frames: Tyne of Slope Time (Maximum time an area can Steeper than 3:1 7 days remain open when the area 10:1 to 3:1 14 days is not actively being worked.) Flatter than 10:1 21 days These areas include constructed storm water management pond side slopes, and any exposed soil areas with a positive slope to a storm water conveyance system, such as a curb and gutter system, storm sewer inlet, temporary or permanent drainage ditch or other natural or man made systems that discharge to a surface water. Street cleaning of soil tracked onto public streets should include daily street scraping and street sweeping as needed. Yoberry Farms Rezoning and Subdivision Planning Case No. 0443 January 4, 2005 Page 8 UTILITIES Municipal sewer and water service is available to the site from Gunflint Trail in the south and from Highover Drive to the north. The applicant is proposing to connect to the existing watermain at both ends and loop it through the site. The City's Water System Master Plan calls for a 12 -inch diameter watermain to connect the existing 12 -inch main in Highover Drive to the north with the existing 16 -inch main in Longacres Drive just south of the site. To comply with the Master Plan, the applicant is proposing to install the 12 -inch watermain connection through the site. Since the applicant is only required to install an 8 -inch main to serve the proposed lots, the watermain oversizing cost will be paid by the City from the water portion of the City's utility fund. Currently, there is an existing temporary lift station at the south end of Highover Drive. The lift station pumps wastewater to a gravity sewer in Highover Drive to the north. This temporary lift station, which serves five homes, has only one pump and is not owned or maintained by the City. As part of the Highover subdivision approval and development contract, the temporary lift station was to be removed when the property to the south (Yoberry Farms) was developed. In fact, the City is holding a letter of credit to ensure this happens. When the temporary lift station is removed, it was always the intention to have a permanent lift station installed within the north part of the Yoberry Farms plat. The permanent lift station would be built to City standards and would be turned over to the City for maintenance and ownership. This is in accordance with the City's Sanitary Sewer Comprehensive Plan. Staff has previously informed the applicant of this requirement. As an alternative, the applicant is proposing to deviate from the sewer comprehensive plan and route the sanitary sewer from 11 homes (6 in Yoberry and 5 from Highover) through the Yobeny site. This sewer, which was originally supposed to drain to the north, will now drain to the south and eventually to lift station #27 (L.S. #27) in the Long Acres Development. Because the wastewater from these 11 homes was never meant to drain to L.S. #27, the existing pumps in L.S. #27 are not sized for this additional wastewater. As such, staff has no objection to the sanitary sewer layout as proposed but the applicant will be required to cover the cost of all necessary upgrades to L.S. #27 for the wastewater from the 11 additional homes. The underlying property has been previously assessed for sewer and water improvements and those assessments have been paid. The sanitary sewer and water hookup charges along with the Lake Ann Interceptor charge will be applicable for each of the new lots. The 2004 trunk hookup charge is $1,458.00 per unit for sanitary sewer and $2,814.00 per unit for watermain. The total 2004 Lake Ann Interceptor charge is $2,102 per unit and the SAC fee is $1,425.00 per unit. All of these charges are based on the number of SAC units assigned by the Metropolitan Council. Sanitary sewer and water -main hookup fees may be specially assessed against the parcel at the time of building permit issuance. All of the utility improvements are required to be constructed in accordance with the City's latest edition of Standard Specifications and Detail Plates. Upon completion of the utility improvements, the utilities will be turned over to the City for maintenance and ownership. The applicant is also required to enter into a development contract with the City and supply the necessary financial security in the form of a letter of credit or cash escrow to guarantee installation of the improvements and the conditions of final plat approval. The applicant must be Yoberry Farms Rezoning and Subdivision Planning Case No. 04-43 January 4, 2005 Page 9 aware that all public utility improvements will require a pre -con meeting before building permit issuance. STREETS Overall, the proposed street layout appears to work well. The entire street system is shown within a 60 -foot wide public right-of-way with 31 -foot wide streets in accordance with City design criteria. Sidewalk is proposed on one side of all the through streets. The plans propose to extend two public streets to service the site from Highover Drive to the north and Gunflint Trail from the south. The proposed streets will provide a connection between Gunflint Trail and Highover Drive. These types of street connections are always preferred for emergency access and to provide residents an alternate route to get to/from their homes. While the minimum curve radius allowed on public streets is 180 feet, staff is willing to allow the tight curve on the east end of Gunflint Trail because the curve is at the end of the street. Staff is recommending that a curve sign with a 20 mile per hour speed limit be posted on both sides of the curve. There is a small portion of the proposed right-of-way for Gunflint Trail that encroaches into an existing electric utility easement along the eastern property line of the site. The applicant will need to obtain an agreement from Xcel Energy that prohibits any future encroachment of the power poles into the street pavement or move the street and right-of-way outside of the existing easement area. PARK DEDICATION Parks Minnewashta Regional Park, a 200 -acre property owned and operated by Carver County, is located just across Highway 41 from the subject property. Pedestrian access from the Yoberry site to the Regional Park would prove difficult and is not advised. The County has long-range plans of providing a pedestrian underpass to the park. However, a future date for this improvement has not been established. There are no neighborhood parks within a half -mile service area of the site. This is largely due to the manner in which neighborhood park services have been provided in this area of the City. Two "association" properties providing park services exist in the Longacres neighborhoods to the south of the Yoberry plat. These recreational properties will not be available to the future residents of the new neighborhood. The City is not seeking parkland dedication as a condition of the platting of this property. Payment of park fees at the rate in force at the time of platting shall be required as a condition of approval. Trails The site does not contain any segment of the City's comprehensive trail plan. A linear grass outlot that serves as a neighborhood trail corridor does exist to the north and east of the Yoberry plat. This outlot was acquired at the time the Highover addition was platted. The applicant for Yoberry Farms Rezoning and Subdivision Planning Case No. 04-43 January 4, 2005 Page 10 the Yoberry plat has acknowledged the presence of this outlot and is providing a sidewalk and stairway connection to the outlot at an appropriate location. It should be noted that the terrain in this vicinity of the plat requires the installation of a stairway, a condition that will limit the types of uses appropriate in this corridor. Upon completion of the Yoberry neighborhood it will be necessary to complete the sidewalk connection to Longacres Drive. This will require the installation of sidewalk in front of two homes on the east side of Gunflint trail. TREE PRESERVATION/LANDSCAPING Tree canopy calculations have been submitted for the Yoberry development. They are as follows: Total upland area (excluding wetlands) 35.9 ac. Baseline canopy coverage 45% or 16.17 ac. Minimum canopy coverage allowed 35% or 12.57 ac. Proposed tree preservation 14% or 5.03 ac. Developer does not meet minimum canopy coverage allowed, therefore the difference between the baseline and proposed tree preservation is multiplied by 1.2 to calculate the required replacement plantings. Difference in canopy coverage 328,399 SF or 7.54 ac. Multiplier 1.2 Total replacement 394,079 SF Total number of trees to be planted 362 trees Additional tree removal must be added to the submitted calculations to allow for tree removal on the custom graded lots. According to ordinance, 105 feet from the property line is considered a removal area for the construction of a home, driveway and any decks, porches or other such features. There are 6 custom -graded lots in the development. The approximate removal area for these lots is 49,200 square feet. Revised calculations are as follows: Total upland area (excluding wetlands) 35.9 ac. Baseline canopy coverage 45% or 16.17 ac. Minimum canopy coverage allowed 35% or 12.57 ac. Proposed tree preservation 11% or 3.90 ac. Developer does not meet minimum canopy coverage allowed, therefore the difference between the baseline and proposed tree preservation is multiplied by 1.2 to calculate the required replacement plantings. Difference in canopy coverage 377,599 SF or 7.54 ac.

Bufferyard requirements are as shown in the table: Landscaping Item Re uired Proposed Bufferyard B* -West 13 overstory trees Existing tree/shrub line property line (1290') 26 understory trees and existing difference in 90 26 shrubs grade elevations Applicant meets minimum requirements for bufferyard plantings. According to the existing conditions and demolition plans (tree preservation) dated 12/20/04, Lot 3, Block 1 of Yoberry 2°d Addition is to be custom graded. However, on grading plans of the same date, the lot is being graded in conjunction with the street. This lot may represent additional tree removal for the development. Staff recommends that the developer clarify how tree removal for lot 3 has been calculated. Additional tree removal calculations need to be done for Lots 18-20, Block 1 since lot sizes have changed due to the additional Right -of -Way adjacent to them. Tree removal calculations will assume 105 feet of clearing on each lot. While the site has many lowland forest species such as boxelder, ash, willow and cottonwood there are a number of very large, upland hardwood specimens as well. Oaks, maples, some black cherry and a tamarack that range in diameter from 20 inches up to 55 inches dot the landscape on the western side of the property. Many of these are in direct conflict with street and home construction, but a handful of them will be left within custom -graded lots. Staff recommends that great care be taken during home construction to preserve as many of the significant trees as possible. Trees that should be located prior to grading field verified as to whether or not they should be removed include: #312, #42, #192, #250, and #251.

Staff is recommending approval with conditions. Notice of this public hearing has been mailed to all property owners within 500 feet. LEVEL OF CITY DISCRETION IN DECISION-MAKING: The City's discretion in approving or denying a preliminary plat is limited to whether or not the proposed plat meets the standards outlined in the Subdivision Regulations and Zoning Ordinance. If it meets these standards, the City must approve the preliminary plat. This is a quasi-judicial decision. The City has a relatively high level of discretion in approving a rezoning because the City is acting in its legislative or policy making capacity. A rezoning must be consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan.

The property is zoned RR, Rural Residential, and the proposal calls for rezoning it to RSF, Residential Single Family. The applicant is also proposing to fill 0.05 acres (2,000 square feet) of wetland. The. Minnesota Wetland Conservation Act, through the de minimis exemption (MR 8420.0122 Subp. 9), allows wetland impacts of 2,000 square feet or less without requiring an alternative analysis: or wetland mitigation. The proposed wetland impacts equal 2,000 square feet, so no wetland replacement is required. A wetland exemption will be issued administratively by City staff prior to the commencement of grading on this project. The average lot size is 22,460 square feet with a resulting gross density of 1.63 units per acre and a net density of 1.94 units per acre.( e site is located east of Highway 41, south of Mghover Drive and north of Gunflint Trail. Access to the subdivision will be provided via Highover Drive to the north and Gunflint Trail to the south. All lots are proposed to be served via internal residential streets. All of the proposed lots meet the minimum area, width, and depth requirements of the Zoning Ordinance with the exception of a few parcels that require the shifting of some lines. These lots are listed under the compliance table. The lot lines can be easily adjusted to meet ordinance requirements. The subdivision is proposed to be developed in three additions. The central portion will be developed as the first addition, the north piece will be the second addition and the last segment — third addition, is the area occupying the southwest portion of the site. There are eight outlots shown on the plat. Outlot A of the fust addition is proposed to be deeded to the neighboring property to the south, Outlets B and C will contain wetlands and storm water ponds, Outlot D will contain a neighborhood park, and Outlots E, F, and G will be deeded to the neighboring 25 Foot Strip of Land YOUNGQUISr AKA YOBERRY FARM AKA YOBERRY FARM LLC WEATHERS RTL lots to the north (when the applicant surveyed the land, it was discovered that the northern property line of Yoberry Farm I' Addition did not abut the rear property lines from the Highover Addition lots. A 25 -foot wide strip Yoberry Farms Rezoning and Subdivision Planning Case No. 04113 December 7, 2004 Page 3 of land was created. The applicant chose to split it equally between the Yoberry Farm In Addition and the Highover addition property owners). Outlot A of the 3d Addition will contain a storm pond. The site consists of several parcels being assembled into one tract of land, and then subdivided. These parcels are owned by four individuals. Single-family homes and accessory structures exist on these parcels. Only the single-family homes are intended to remain. Five wetlands occupy the site. The site has bluffs and a meandering topography., The site has some mature trees. In summary, staff believes that the proposed subdivision is well designed Minor revisions will be required. We are recommending that it be approved with conditions outlined in the staff report. The applicant is proposing to rezone the property from RR, Rural Residential, to RSF, Residential Single Family. The area to the north, east, and south is zoned Rural Residential. The area to the north is zoned Residential Single Family. The area to the south and east is zoned Planned Unit Development — Residential. The area to the west is zoned Rural Residential. All the surrounding property, with the exception of the area to the west of the subject site, is guided for Residential Low Density. The area to the west is guided Residential Low Density and PublictSemi Public. The 2020 Land Use Plan shows this area designated for development as Low Density Residential, 1.2 - 4.0 units per acre. Appropriate zoning for this land use is RSF, R4 or PUD -R. The applicant's proposal has a gross density of 1.63 units per acre and 1.94 units per acre net after the streets and wetlands are taken out. This area is in the MUSA. Staff is recommending that this area be rezoned to RSF and finds that the rezoning is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. PRELME NARY PLAT The applicant is proposing to subdivide a 35.65 acre site into 58 single-family lots. The density of the proposed subdivision is 1.63 units per acre gross and 1.94 units per acre net after removing the roads and wetlands. All the lots exceed the minimum 15,000 square feet of area, with an average lot size of 22,460 square feet. All of the proposed lots meet the minimum width and depth requirements of the Zoning Ordinance with the exception of a few parcels that have deficient frontage. The lot lines can be easily adjusted to meet ordinance requirements. There are eight outlots shown on the plat. Outlot A of the first addition is proposed to be deeded to the neighboring property to the south, Outlots B and C will contain wetlands and storm water ponds, Outlot D will contain a neighborhood park, and Outlots E, F, and G will be deeded to the neighboring lots to the north (when the applicant surveyed the land, it was discovered that the northern property line of Yoberry Farm 1s` Addition did not abut the rear property lines from the Highover Addition lots. A 25 foot wide strip of land was created. The applicant chose to split it equally between the Yoberry Farm 1s` Addition and the Highover addition property owners). Outlot A of the 3' Addition will contain a storm pond. Yoberry Farms Rezoning and Subdivision Planning Case No. 04-43 December 7, 2004 Page 4 Lots 3 through 8, Block 3, Lots 1 through 4, Block 4, and Lots i through 7, Block 5 abut wetlands. The applicant is proposing to outlot the wetlands. The ordinance requires all structures to maintain a 40 -foot setback from the outside edge of a wetland buffer strip. The ordinance also requires a buffer zone in addition to the wetland setback. A wetland buffer 16.5 feet in width must be maintained around Wetlands 2, 3, 4, and 5. A 20 -foot wetland buffer must be maintained around Wetland 1. Staff notes that the proposal is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and generally consistent with the Zoning Ordinance. WETLANDS Existing Wetlands Five wetlands exist on-site: one Natural wetland and four AgfUrban wetlands. Kjolhaug Environmental Services delineated the wetlands in May 2004. The delineation was reviewed on- site by staff on October 22, 2004. The wetland numbering is not consistent between the wetland delineation and the plans. For the purposes of this report, staff used the wetland number from the plans. Wetland 4 is an Ag/Urban wetland (Type 1) located at the north edge of the property. The wetland is dominated by reed canary grass, spotted touch-me-not and box elder. No impacts are proposed to Wetland 4. Wetland 3 is an Ag/Urban wetland (Type 1) located southeast of Wetland 1. The wetland is dominated by reed canary grass. The applicant is proposing to fill the southeastern most portion of the wetland to accommodate a road. The total proposed impact to Wetland 3 is 1,577 square feet (0.04 acres). Wetland 2 is an Ag/Urban wetland (Type 1) located in the southeastern comer of the property. The wetland is dominated by reed canary grass. The applicant is proposing to fill the northwestern most portion of the wetland to accommodate a road. The total proposed impact to Wetland 2 is 423 square feet (0.01 acres). Wetland 5 is an Ag/Urban wetland (Type 3) located in the southeast corner of the property. The wetland is dominated by cattail, reed canary grass, American elm and ash. No impacts are proposed to Wetland 5. Wetland 1 is a Natural wetland (Type 3) located west of Wetland 4 near the southeast corner of the property. The wetland is dominated by sedge and cattail. No impacts are proposed to Wetland 1. " Wetland Impacts The Minnesota Wetland Conservation Act, through the de minimis exemption (MR 8420.0122 Subp. 9), allows wetland impacts of 2,000 square feet or less without requiring an alternative analysis or wetland mitigation. The proposed wetland impacts equal 2,000 square feet, so no Yoberry Farms Rezoning and Subdivision Planning Case No. 04-43 December 7, 2004 Page 5 wetland replacement is required. A wetland exemption will be issued administratively by City staff prior to the commencement of grading on this project. A wetland buffer 16.5 feet in width must be maintained around Wetlands 2, 3, 4 and 5. A wetland buffer 20 feet in width must be maintained around Wetland 1. Wetland buffer areas should be preserved, surveyed and staked in accordance with the City's wetland ordinance. The applicant should install wetland buffer edge signs, under the direction of City staff, before construction begins and must pay the City $20 per sign. All structures must maintain 40 -foot setbacks from wetland buffer edges. -c 3, Yo rry-Frmw BLUFFS Two areas on the property have been identified as bluff (i.e., slope greater than or equal to 30% and a rise in slope of at least 25 feet above the toe). These areas must be preserved. In addition, all structures must maintain a 30 -foot setback from the bluff and no grading may occur within the bluff impact zone (i.e., the bluff and land located within 20 feet from the top of a bluff). -The 4equ*ft"&-foorbftff-s�- Surface Water Management Fees Water Quality Fees Because of the impervious surface associated with this development, the water quality fees for this proposed development are based on single-family residential development rates of $TtDki.acre. 1, aq 3 Based on the proposed developed area of approximately -26-00 acres, the water quality fees associated with this project are $26,93L Z5.51 42-7,17V Water Quantity Fees The SWMP has established a connection charge for the different land uses based on an average citywide rate for the installation of water quantity systems. This cost includes land acquisition, proposed SWMP culverts, open channels, and storm water ponding areas for runoff storage. Single- family residential developments have a connection charge of $2;14Sper developable acre. This 2,-705 results in a water quantity fee of approximately $66,42-5,for the proposed development. 49,tt1 SWMP Credits a This project proposes the construction of>(NURP ponds and the provision of 2 outlet structures. At this time, the estimatSd total SWMP fee, due payable to the City at the time of final plat recording, is M156-.- I 4119 1 Other Agencies The applicant should apply for and obtain permits from the appropriate regulatory agencies (e.g., Riley -Purgatory -Bluff Creek Watershed District, Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (NPDES Yoberry Farms Rezoning and Subdivision Planning Case No. 0443 December 7, 2004 Page 6 AJJ M N Phase II Construction Permit), Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (for dewatering)) and ,,} cF comply with their conditions of approval. Heu A b Mi GRADING, DRAINAGE & EROSION CONTROL DOT' The existing site is about 36 acres and has tree cover over approximately 16 acres (45% of the parcel). The existing parcel has a wide variety of grade changes within its limits. The site elevations range from a high of 1084± to a low of 992±. These severe elevation differences make this site a challenging one to both develop and minimize grading. The plans propose to grade about 80% of the site for the 58 new house pads, a proposed street system, three cul-de-sacs and stormwater ponds. The proposed grading will prepare the site for full basement, look -out and walk -out type house pads. Retaining walls are proposed in numerous locations throughout the site. The applicant must be aware that any retaining wall over four feet in height must be designed by a registered civil engineer and a permit from the city building department must be obtained. In addition, encroachment agreements will be required for any retaining wall within a public easement. Staff is concerned with the large number of lots that have steep rear yard slopes off the house pad and very little useable rear yard. Staff is, therefore, recommending that all lots have a minimum useable area off the back of the house pad that is relatively flat with a maximum slope of 10:1. In addition, the eastern end of Gunflint Trail contains three retaining walls just off the right-of- way. To better match the existing grades and minimize the wall height on two of the retaining walls, staff is recommending that the applicant increase the street grades moving west from the cul-de-sac. This would lower the street in the area of the curve and existing wetland and decrease the amount of fill that is required. The existing site drainage is encompassed within three main drainage areas. Under existing conditions, the eastern portion of the site drains to an existing wetland complex to the east and south; the northwestern part of the site drains off-site to a western TH 41 ditch; and the southwester part of the site drains off-site to the south. Under developed conditions, the applicant is proposing to capture the street drainage, front yard drainage and rear yard drainage from most of the lots. The stormwater that is captured will be conveyed via storm sewer to proposed ponds in the southeasterly and southwesterly comers of the site for treatment. The proposed ponds must be designed to National Urban Runoff Program (NURP) standards with maximum 3:1 slopes and a 10:1 bench at the NWL.ation of the r t e -to-provtdes�l infennaUen-showingxhat rhi� ��to a pi�bli� drainer an i -Hfikty-easea►ent. Two storm water ponds are proposed in conjunction with this development. In addition, a temporary pond that was constructed with the Highover subdivision is proposed to remain. The applicant has indicated that he has met with the property owners of Lot 23, Block 3, Highover who are aware that the temporary pond will not be relocated. The applicant has submitted a letter from the owners of Lot 23, Block 3 that indicate they understand that the pond will not be moved. The pond built in conjunction with the Highover subdivision must be maintained to ensure it meets the size and volume standards to which it was originally designed. Any inlet and December 7, 2004 �J�y outlet structures on that pond req 'ng maintenance placement must be correct2ed� In addition, areas experiencing erosion due to storm water discharge must be stabilized. While the applicant is proposing to treat most of the site drainage th�,� site ponding, there is a small area in the central portion of the site which will not be treatePiosed catch basins at the intersection of Street B and Gunflint Trail will capture this drai ge and connect with the existing storm sewer in Gunflint Trail. This storm sewer drains to an existing pond in the I.ongacres subdivision south of the site. ^�'iA 1l �7 �iinu.?:�\=i�innG=:: •••^ •���ST.n Drainage calculations for the site have been submitted and some changes remain. The applicant is required to meet the existing site runoff rates for the 10 -year and 100 -year, 24-hour storm events. Storm sewer sizing calculations must be submitted at the time of final plat application. The storm sewer must be sized for a 10 -year, 24-hour storm event. Drainage and utility easements must be dedicated on the final plat over the public storm drainage system including ponds, drainage swales, and wetlands up to the 100 -year flood level. Proposed erosion control must be developed in accordance with the City's Best Management Practice Handbook (BMPH). Staff recommends that Type II silt fence, which is a heavy duty fence, be used adjacent to the existing wetlands and around the ponds. In addition, tree preservation fencing must be installed at the limits of tree removal. Erosion control blankets are recommended for all areas with a steep slope of 3:1 and an elevation drop of eight feet or greater. All disturbed areas, as a result of construction, must be seeded and mulched or sodded immediately after grading to minimize erosion. The applicant should be aware that any off-site grading will require an easement from the appropriate property owner. If importing or exporting material for development of the site is necessary, the applicant will be required to supply the City with detailed haul routes. Silt fence must be installed between wetland impact areas and the remaining wetland. All exposed soil areas should have temporary erosion protection or permanent cover year round, according to the following table of slopes and time frames: Type of Slone Time (Maximum time an area can Steeper than 3:1 7 days remain open when the area 10:1 to 3:1 14 days is not actively being worked.) Flatter than 10:1 21 days These areas include constructed storm water management pond side slopes, and any exposed soil areas with a positive slope to a storm water conveyance system, such as a curb and gutter system, storm sewer inlet, temporary or permanent drainage ditch or other natural or man made systems that discharge to a surface water. Street cleaning of soil tracked onto public streets should include daily street scraping and street sweeping as needed Yoberry Farms Rezoning and Subdivision Planning Case No. 04-43 December 7, 2004 Page 8 Municipal sewer and water service is available to the site from Gunflint Trail in the south and from Highover Drive to the north. The applicant is proposing to connect to the existing watermain at both ends and loop it through the site. The City's Water System Master Plan calls for a 12 -inch diameter watermain to connect the existing 12 -inch main in I ighover Drive to the north with the existing 16 -inch main in Longacres Drive just south of the site. To comply with the Master Plan, the applicant is proposing to install the 12 -inch watermain connection through the site. Since the applicant is only required to install an 8 -inch main to serve the proposed lots, d� the waterm n oversizing cost gvill be paid by the City from the water rtion of a City's utility fund. n I 44. -M 0 Iry�',Uwf,Mytt i$"+t=rt- Currently, ure is an existing temporary lift station at the south end of Highover Driv . is temporary lift station, which serves five homes, has only one pump and is not owned or maintained by the City. As part of the Highover subdivision approval and development contract, the temporary lift station was to be removed when the property to the south (Yoberry Farms) was developed. In fact, the City is holding a letter of credit to ensure this happens. When the temporary lift station is removed, it was always the intention to have a permanent lift station installed within the north part of the Yoberry Farms plat. The permanent lift station would be built to City standards and would be turned over to the City for maintenance and ownership. This is in accordance with the City's Sanitary Sewer Comprehensive Plan. Staff has previously informed the applicant of this requirement , The underlying property has been previously assessed for sewer and water improvements and ^ those assessments have been paid. The sanitary sewer and water hookup charges along with the a n Lake Ann Interceptor charge will be applicable for each of the new lots. The 2004 trunk hookup V charge is $1,458.00 per unit for sanitary sewer and $2,814.00 per unit for watermain. The total V 2004 Lake Ann Interceptor charge is $2,102 per unit and the SAC fee is $1,425.00 per unit. All of these charges are based on the number of SAC units assigned by the Metropolitan Council. Sanitary sewer and water -main hookup fees may be specially assessed against the parcel at the time of building permit issuance. All of the utility improvements are required to be constructed in accordance with the City's latest edition of Standard Specifications and Detail Plates. Upon completion of the utility improvements, the utilities will be turned over to the City for maintenance and ownership. The applicant is also required to enter into a development contract with the City and supply the necessary financial security in the form of a letter of credit or cash escrow to guarantee installation of the improvements and the conditions of final plat approval. The applicant must be aware that all public utility improvements will require a pre -con meeting before building permit issuance. STREETS Overall, the proposed street layout appears to work well. The entire street system is shown within a 60 -foot wide public right-of-way with 31 -foot wide streets in accordance with City design criteria. Sidewalk is proposed on one side of all the through streets. The plans propose to extend two public streets to service the site from Highover Drive to the north and Gunflint Trail from the south. The proposed streets will provide a connection between Gunflint Trail and Highover Drive. These types of street connections are always preferred for emergency access and to provide residents an alternate route to get to/from their homes. Fhc-applieasl�onld-be ��llk� atr a -the minimum curve radius allowed on public streets is 180 feet Thrr'e pro � L" Y E There is a small portion of the proposed right-of-way for Gunflint Trail that encroaches into an existing electric utility easement along the eastern property line of the site. The applicant will need to obtain an agreement from Xcel Energy that prohibits any future encroachment of the power poles into the street pavement or move the street and right-of-way outside of the existing easement area. PARK DEDICATION Parks N innewashta Regional Park a 200 acre property owned and operated by Carver County is located just across Highway 41 from the subject property. Pedestrian access from the Yoberry site to the Regional Park would prove difficult and is not advised. The County has long range plans of providing a pedestrian underpass to the park. However a future date for this improvement has not been established. There are no neighborhood parks within a'h mile service area of the site. This is largely due to the manner in which neighborhood park services have been provided in this area of the City. Two "association" properties providing park services exist in the Long acres neighborhoods to the south of the Yoberry plat. These recreational properties will not be available to the future residents of the new neighborhood. The City is not seeking parkland dedication as a condition of the platting of this property. Payment of park fees at the rate in force at the time of platting shall be required as a condition of approval. Trails The site does not contain any segment of the cities comprehensive trail plan. A linear grass Oudot that serves as a neighborhood trail corridor does exist to the north and east of the Yoberry plat. This outlot was acquired at the time the Highover addition was platted. The applicant for the Yoberry plat has acknowledged the presence of this outlot and is providing a sidewalk and stairway connection to the outlot at an appropriate location. It should be noted that the terrain in this vicinity of the plat requires the installation the stairway, a condition that will limit the types of uses appropriate in this corridor.

TREE PRESERVATION/LANDSCAPING Tree canopy calculations have been submitted for the Yoberry development. They are as follows: Total upland area (excluding wetlands) 35.9 ac. Baseline canopy coverage 45% or 16.17 ac. Minimum canopy coverage allowed 35% or 12.57 ac. Proposed tree preservation 14% or 5.03 ac. Developer does not meet minimum canopy coverage allowed, therefore the difference between the baseline and proposed tree preservation is multiplied by 1.2 to calculate the required replacement plantings. Difference in canopy coverage 328,399 SF or 7.54 ac. Multiplier 1.2 Total replacement 394,079 SF Total number of trees to be planted 362 trees Additional tree removal must be added to the submitted calculations to allow for tree removal on the custom graded lots. According to ordinance, 105 feet from the property line is considered a removal area for the construction of a home, driveway and any decks, porches or other such features. There are 6 custom -graded lots in the development. The approximate removal area for these lots is 49,200 square feet. Revised calculations are as follows: Total upland area (excluding wetlands) 35.9 ac. Baseline canopy coverage 45% or 16.17 ac. Minimum canopy coverage allowed 35% or 1257 ac. Proposed tree preservation 11% or 3.90 ae.

Box 147 Chanhassen, MN 55317 Re: Highover / Yoberry Farm Pond Dear Lori: My husband James and I live at 7048 Highover Court in Chanhassen, and we overlook a pond the developer of Highover constructed several years ago. A week or so ago I met with Bill Coffman, a member of the development team that is involved with the development of the Youngquist Property, and we discussed the pond in the rear of our property. We would like to inform the City that we would very much prefer the pond to stay in its present location as we feel it offers us a valuable amenity in several ways. It attracts wildlife (deer and water fowl) that we enjoy, it serves as a `water feature" that enhances our view and our family enjoys ice skating on it during the winter. Please be advised we support the current location of this pond whole heartedly. Thank you very much for your consideration in this matter.

Staff is recommending approval with conditions. Notice of this public hearing has been mailed to all property owners within 500 feet. LEVEL OF CITY DISCRETION IN DECISION-MAKING: The City's discretion in approving or denying a preliminary plat is limited to whether or not the proposed plat meets the standards outlined in the Subdivision Regulations and Zoning Ordinance. if it meets these standards, the City must approve the preliminary plat. This is a quasi-judicial decision. The City has a relatively high level of discretion in approving a rezoning because the City is acting in its legislative or policy making capacity. A rezoning must be consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan. Location Map Yoberry Farm City of Chanhassen Planning Case No. 04-43 Subject Property SCANNED Yoberry Farms Rezoning and Subdivision Planning Case No. 04-43 December 7, 2004 Page 2 PROPOSAUSUMMARY The applicant is proposing to subdivide 35.65 acres into 58 single-family lots and 8 outlots. The property is zoned RR, Rural Residential, and the proposal calls for rezoning it to RSF, Residential Single Family. The applicant is also proposing to 6110.05 acres (2,000 square feet) of wetland. The Minnesota Wetland Conservation Act, through the de minimis exemption (MIR 8420.0122 Subp. 9), allows wetland impacts of 2,000 square feet or less without requiring an alternative analysis or wetland mitigation. The proposed wetland impacts equal 2,000 square feet, so no wetland replacement is required. A wetland exemption will be issued administratively by City staff prior to the commencement of grading on this project. The average lot size is 22,460 square feet with a resulting gross density of 1.63 units per acre and a net density of 1.94 units per acre. The site is located east of Highway 41, south of Highover Drive and north of Gunflint Trail. Access to the subdivision will be provided via Highover Drive to the north and Gunflint Trail to the south. All lots are proposed to be served via internal residential streets. All of the proposed lots meet the minimum area, width, and depth requirements of the Zoning Ordinance with the exception of a few parcels that require the shifting of some lines. These lots are listed under the compliance table. The lot lines can be easily adjusted to meet ordinance requirements. The subdivision is proposed to be developed in three additions. The central portion will be developed as the fust addition, the north piece will be the second addition and the last segment — third addition, is the area occupying the southwest portion of the site. There are eight outlots shown on the plat. Outlot A of the fust addition is proposed to be deeded to the neighboring property to the south, Outlots B and C will contain wetlands and storm water ponds, Oudot D will contain a neighborhood park, and Outlots E, F, and G will be deeded to the neighboring lots to the north (when the applicant surveyed the land, it was discovered that the northern property line of Yoberry Farm I" Addition did not abut the rear property lines from the Highover Addition lots. A 25 -foot wide strip YOUNGQUIST AKA YOBERRY FARM LLC AKA YOBERRY FARM LLC lots to the north (when the applicant surveyed the land, it was discovered that the northern property line of Yoberry Farm I" Addition did not abut the rear property lines from the Highover Addition lots. A 25 -foot wide strip Yoberry Farms Rezoning and Subdivision Planning Case No. 0443 December 7, 2004 Page 3 of land was created. The applicant chose to split it equally between the Yoberry Farm 151 Addition and the Highover addition property owners). Outlot A of the 3'd Addition will contain a storm pond. The site consists of several parcels being assembled into one tract of land, and then subdivided. These parcels are owned by four individuals. Single-family homes and accessory structures exist on these parcels. Only the single-family homes are intended to remain. Five wetlands occupy the site. The site has bluffs and a meandering topography. The site has some mature trees. In summary, staff believes that the proposed subdivision is well designed. Minor revisions will be required. We are recommending that it be approved with conditions outlined in the staff report. REZONING The applicant is proposing to rezone the property from RR, Rural Residential, to RSF, Residential Single Family. The area to the north, east, and south is zoned Rural Residential. The area to the north is zoned Residential Single Family. The area to the south and east is zoned Planned Unit Development — Residential. The area to the west is zoned Rural Residential. All the surrounding property, with the exception of the area to the west of the subject site, is guided for Residential Low Density. The area to the west is guided Residential Low Density and Public/Semi Public. The 2020 Land Use Plan shows this area designated for development as Low Density Residential, 1.2 - 4.0 units per acre. Appropriate zoning for this land use is RSF, R4 or PUD -R. The applicant's proposal has a gross density of 1.63 units per acre and 1.94 units per acre net after the streets and wetlands are taken out. This area is in the MUSA. Staff is recommending that this area be rezoned to RSF and finds that the rezoning is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. PRELI)VHNARY PLAT The applicant is proposing to subdivide a 35.65 acre site into 58 single-family lots. The density of the proposed subdivision is 1.63 units per acre gross and 1.94 units per acre net after removing the roads and wetlands. All the lots exceed the minimum 15,000 square feet of area, with an average lot size of 22,460 square feet. All of the proposed lots meet the minimum width and depth requirements of the Zoning Ordinance with the exception of a few parcels that have deficient frontage. The lot lines can be easily adjusted to meet ordinance requirements. There are eight outlots shown on the plat. Outlot A of the fust addition is proposed to be deeded to the neighboring property to the south, Outlots B and C will contain wetlands and storm water ponds, Outlot D will contain a neighborhood park, and Outlots E, F, and G will be deeded to the neighboring lots to the north (when the applicant surveyed the land, it was discovered that the northern property line of Yoberry Farm 15` Addition did not abut the rear property lines from the Highover Addition lots. A 25 foot wide strip of land was created. The applicant chose to split it equally between the Yoberry Farm I" Addition and the I ighover addition property owners). Outlot A of the Yd Addition will contain a storm pond. Yoberry Farms Rezoning and Subdivision Planning Case No. 04-43 December 7, 2004 Page 4 Lots 3 through 8, Block 3, Lots 1 through 4, Block 4, and Lots 1 through 7, Block 5 abut wetlands. The applicant is proposing to outlot the wetlands. The ordinance requires all structures to maintain a 40 -foot setback from the outside edge of a wetland buffer strip. The ordinance also requires a buffer zone in addition to the wetland setback. A wetland buffer 16.5 feet in width must be maintained around Wetlands 2, 3, 4, and 5. A 20 -foot wetland buffer must be maintained around Wetland 1. Staff notes that the proposal is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and generally consistent with the Zoning Ordinance. WETLANDS Eidsting Wetlands Five wetlands exist on-site: one Natural wetland and four Ag/Urban wetlands. Kjolhaug Environmental Services delineated the wetlands in May 2004. The delineation was reviewed on- site by staff on October 22, 2004. The wetland numbering is not consistent between the wetland delineation and the plans. For the purposes of this report, staff used the wetland number from the plans. Wetland 4 is an Ag/Urban wetland ('Type 1) located at the north edge of the property. The wetland is dominated by reed canary grass, spotted touch-me-not and box elder. No impacts are proposed to Wetland 4. Wetland 3 is an Ag/Urban wetland (Type 1) located southeast of Wetland 1. The wetland is dominated by reed canary grass. The applicant is proposing to fill the southeastern most portion of the wetland to accommodate a road. The total proposed impact to Wetland 3 is 1,577 square feet (0.04 acres). Wetland 2 is an Ag/Urban wetland (Type 1) located in the southeastern comer of the property. The wetland is dominated by reed canary grass. The applicant is proposing to fill the northwestern most portion of the wetland to accommodate a road. The total proposed impact to Wetland 2 is 423 square feet (0.01 acres). Wetland 5 is an Ag/Urban wetland (Type 3) located in the southeast corner of the property. The wetland is dominated by cattail, reed canary grass, American elm and ash. No impacts are proposed to Wetland 5. Wetland 1 is a Natural wetland (Type 3) located west of Wetland 4 near the southeast corner of the property. The wetland is dominated by sedge and cattail. No impacts are proposed to Wetland 1. The "EDGE OF WATER" notation and contour for Wetland 1 are not relevant and should be removed from the plans. Wetland Impacts The Minnesota Wetland Conservation Act, through the de minimis exemption (MR 8420.0122 Subp. 9), allows wetland impacts of 2,000 square feet or less without requiring an alternative analysis or wetland mitigation. The proposed wetland impacts equal 2,000 square feet, so no Yoberry Farms Rezoning and Subdivision Planning Case No. 04-43 December 7, 2004 Page 5 wetland replacement is required. A wetland exemption will be issued administratively by City staff prior to the commencement of grading on this project. A wetland buffer 16.5 feet in width must be maintained around Wetlands 2, 3, 4 and 5. A wetland buffer 20 feet in width must be maintained around Wetland 1. Wetland buffer areas should be preserved, surveyed and staked in accordance with the City's wetland ordinance. The applicant should install wetland buffer edge signs, under the direction of City staff, before construction begins and must pay the City $20 per sign. All structures must maintain 40 -foot setbacks from wetland buffer edges. The buildable areas on Lots 3-5, Block 3, Yoberry Farm should be revised to reflect the required 40 -foot wetland buffer setback. BLUFFS Two areas on the property have been identified as bluff (i.e., slope greater than or equal to 30% and a rise in slope of at least 25 feet above the toe). These areas must be preserved. In addition, all structures must maintain a 30 -foot setback from the bluff and no grading may occur within the bluff impact zone (i.e., the bluff and land located within 20 feet from the top of a bluff). The buildable areas on Lots 4, 19 and 20, Block 1, Yoberry Farm should be revised to reflect the required 30 -foot bluff setback. Surface Water Management Fees Water Quality Fees Because of the impervious surface associated with this development, the water quality fees for this proposed development are based on single-family residential development rates of $1,028/acre. Based on the proposed developed area of approximately 26. 10 acres, the water quality fees associated with this project are $26,831. Water Quantity Fees The SWAP has established a connection charge for the different land uses based on an average citywide rate for the installation of water quantity systems. This cost includes land acquisition, proposed SWAP culverts, open channels, and storm water ponding areas for runoff storage. Single- family residential developments have a connection charge of $2,545 per developable acre. This results in a water quantity fee of approximately $66,425 for the proposed development. SWMP Credits This project proposes the construction of 2 NURP ponds and the provision of 2 outlet structures. The applicant will not be assessed for wetland areas or stone water ponds. At this time, the estimated total SWAP fee, due payable to the City at the time of final plat recording, is $88,256. Other Agencies The applicant should apply for and obtain permits from the appropriate regulatory agencies (e.g., Riley -Purgatory -Bluff Creek Watershed District, Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (NPDES Yoberry Farms Rezoning and Subdivision Planning Case No. 04-43 December 7, 2004 Page 6 Phase lI Construction Permit), Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (for dewatering)) and comply with their conditions of approval. GRADING. DRAINAGE & EROSION CONTROL The existing site is about 36 acres and has tree cover over approximately 16 acres (45% of the parcel). The existing parcel has a wide variety of grade changes within its limits. The site elevations range from a high of 1084± to a low of 992±. These severe elevation differences make this site a challenging one to both develop and minimize grading. The plans propose to grade about 80% of the site for the 58 new house pads, a proposed street system, three cul-de-sacs and stormwater ponds. The proposed grading will prepare the site for full basement, look -out and walk -out type house pads. Retaining walls are proposed in numerous locations throughout the site. The applicant must be aware that any retaining wall over four feet in height must be designed by a registered civil engineer and a permit from the city building department must be obtained. In addition, encroachment agreements will be required for any retaining wall within a public easement. Staff is concerned with the large number of lots that have steep rear yard slopes off the house pad and very little useable rear yard. Staff is, therefore, recommending that all lots have a minimum useable area off the back of the house pad that is relatively flat with a maximum slope of 10:1. In addition, the eastern end of Gunflint Trail contains three retaining walls just off the right-of- way. To better match the existing grades and minimize the wall height on two of the retaining walls, staff is recommending that the applicant increase the street grades moving west from the cul-de-sac. This would lower the street in the area of the curve and existing wetland and decrease the amount of fill that is required. The existing site drainage is encompassed within three main drainage areas. Under existing conditions, the easter portion of the site drains to an existing wetland complex to the east and south; the northwestern part of the site drains off-site to a wester TH 41 ditch; and the southwestern part of the site drains off-site to the south. Under developed conditions, the applicant is proposing to capture the street drainage, front yard drainage and rear yard drainage from most of the lots. The stormwater that is captured will be conveyed via storm sewer to proposed ponds in the southeasterly and southwesterly corers of the site for treatment. The proposed ponds must be designed to National Urban Runoff Program (NURP) standards with maximum 3:1 slopes and a 10:1 bench at the NWL. Staff is concerned with the location of the outlet pipe from the proposed pond in the southwest comer of the site. The applicant will need to provide additional information showing that this pipe is discharging to a public drainage and utility easement. Two storm water ponds are proposed in conjunction with this development. In addition, a temporary pond that was constructed with the Highover subdivision is proposed to remain. The applicant has indicated that he has met with the property owners of Lot 23, Block 3, Mghover who are aware that the temporary pond will not be relocated. The applicant has submitted a letter from the owners of Lot 23, Block 3 that indicate they understand that the pond will not be moved. The pond built in conjunction with the Highover subdivision must be maintained to ensure it meets the size and volume standards to which it was originally designed. Any inlet and Yoberry Farms Rezoning and Subdivision Planning Case No. 0443 December 7, 2004 Page 7 outlet structures on that pond requiring maintenance or replacement must be corrected. In addition, areas experiencing erosion due to storm water discharge must be stabilized. While the applicant is proposing to treat most of the site drainage with on-site ponding, there is a small area in the central portion of the site which will not be treated. Proposed catch basins at the intersection of Street B and Gunflint Trail will capture this drainage and connect with the existing storm sewer in Gunflint Trail. This storm sewer drains to an existing pond in the Longacres subdivision south of the site. The applicant must submit information showing that this pond has been previously sized for the additional drainage from the Yoberry Farms development. Otherwise, on-site ponding will be required for this drainage area. Drainage calculations for the site have been submitted and some changes remain. The applicant is required to meet the existing site runoff rates for the 10 -year and 100 -year, 24-hour storm events. Storm sewer sizing calculations must be submitted at the time of final plat application. The storm sewer must be sized for a 10 -year, 24-hour storm event. Drainage and utility easements must be dedicated on the final plat over the public storm drainage system including ponds, drainage swales, and wetlands up to the 100 -year flood level. Proposed erosion control must be developed in accordance with the City's Best Management Practice Handbook (BMPH). Staff recommends that Type II silt fence, which is a heavy duty fence, be used adjacent to the existing wetlands and around the ponds. In addition, tree preservation fencing must be installed at the limits of tree removal. Erosion control blankets are recommended for all areas with a steep slope of 3:1 and an elevation drop of eight feet or greater. All disturbed areas, as a result of construction, must be seeded and mulched or sodded immediately after grading to minimize erosion. The applicant should be aware that any off-site grading will require an easement from the appropriate property owner. If importing or exporting material for development of the site is necessary, the applicant will be required to supply the City with detailed haul routes. Silt fence must be installed between wetland impact areas and the remaining wetland. All exposed soil areas should have temporary erosion protection or permanent cover year round, according to the following table of slopes and time frames: Type of Slope Time (Maximum time an area can Steeper than 3:1 7 days remain open when the area 10:1 to 3:1 14 days is not actively being worked.) Flatter than 10:1 21 days These areas include constructed storm water management pond side slopes, and any exposed soil areas with a positive slope to a storm water conveyance system, such as a curb and gutter system, storm sewer inlet, temporary or permanent drainage ditch or other natural or man made systems that discharge to a surface water. Street cleaning of soil tracked onto public streets should include daily street scraping and street sweeping as needed. Yoberry Farms Rezoning and Subdivision Planning Case No. 04-43 December 7, 2004 Page 8 1110INYY13.9 Municipal sewer and water service is available to the site from Gunflint Trail in the south and from Highover Drive to the north. The applicant is proposing to connect to the existing watermain at both ends and loop it through the site. The City's Water System Master Plan calls for a 12 -inch diameter watermain to connect the existing 12 -inch main in Highover Drive to the north with the existing 16 -inch main in Longacres Drive just south of the site. To comply with the Master Plan, the applicant is proposing to install the 12 -inch watermain connection through the site. Since the applicant is only required to install an 8 -inch main to serve the proposed lots, the watermain oversizing cost will be paid by the City from the water portion of the City's utility fund. Currently, there is an existing temporary lift station at the south end of Highover Drive. This temporary lift station, which serves five homes, has only one pump and is not owned or maintained by the City. As part of the Highover subdivision approval and development contract, the temporary lift station was to be removed when the property to the south (Yoberry Farms) was developed. In fact, the City is holding a letter of credit to ensure this happens. When the temporary lift station is removed, it was always the intention to have a permanent lift station installed within the north part of the Yoberry Farms plat. The permanent lift station would be built to City standards and would be turned over to the City for maintenance and ownership. This is in accordance with the City's Sanitary Sewer Comprehensive Plan. Staff has previously informed the applicant of this requirement but, currently, the plans do not reflect this. Staff is still recommending that the plans be revised to follow the Comprehensive Plan and provide a permanent lift station. The underlying property has been previously assessed for sewer and water improvements and those assessments have been paid. The sanitary sewer and water hookup charges along with the Lake Ann Interceptor charge will be applicable for each of the new lots. The 2004 trunk hookup charge is $1,458.00 per unit for sanitary sewer and $2,814.00 per unit for watermain. The total 2004 Lake Ann Interceptor charge is $2,102 per unit and the SAC fee is $1,425.00 per unit. All of these charges are based on the number of SAC units assigned by the Metropolitan Council. Sanitary sewer and water -main hookup fees may be specially assessed against the parcel at the time of building permit issuance. All of the utility improvements are required to be constructed in accordance with the City's latest edition of Standard Specifications and Detail Plates. Upon completion of the utility improvements, the utilities will be turned over to the City for maintenance and ownership. The applicant is also required to enter into a development contract with the City and supply the necessary financial security in the form of a letter of credit or cash escrow to guarantee installation of the improvements and the conditions of final plat approval. The applicant must be aware that all public utility improvements will require a pre -con meeting before building permit issuance. Permits from the appropriate regulatory agencies will have to be obtained, including but not limited to the MPCA, NPDES, Watershed District, Department of Health, and MnDOT. Yoberry Farms Rezoning and Subdivision Planning Case No. 04-43 December 7, 2004 Page 9 STREETS Overall, the proposed street layout appears to work well. The entire street system is shown within a 60 -foot wide public right-of-way with 31 -foot wide streets in accordance with City design criteria. Sidewalk is proposed on one side of all the through streets. The plans propose to extend two public streets to service the site from Highover Drive to the north and Gunflint Trail from the south. The proposed streets will provide a connection between Gunflint Trail and Highover Drive. These types of street connections are always preferred for emergency access and to provide residents an alternate route to get to/from their homes. The applicant should be aware that the minimum curve radius allowed on public streets is 180 feet. There are a few proposed curves which will have to be revised to meet these criteria. There is a small portion of the proposed right-of-way for Gunflint Trail that encroaches into an existing electric utility easement along the eastern property line of the site. The applicant will need to obtain an agreement from Xcel Energy that prohibits any future encroachment of the power poles into the street pavement or move the street and right-of-way outside of the existing easement area. PARK DEDICATION Parks Minnewashta Regional Park a 200 acre property owned and operated by Carver County is located just across Highway 41 from the subject property. Pedestrian access from the Yoberry site to the Regional Park would prove difficult and is not advised. The County has long range plans of providing a pedestrian underpass to the park. However a future date for this improvement has not been established. There are no neighborhood parks within a''/2 mile service area of the site. This is largely due to the manner in which neighborhood park services have been provided in this area of the City. Two "association" properties providing park services exist in the Long acres neighborhoods to the south of the Yoberry plat. These recreational properties will not be available to the future residents of the new neighborhood. The City is not seeking parkland dedication as a condition of the platting of this property. Payment of park fees at the rate in force at the time of platting shall be required as a condition of approval. Trails The site does not contain any segment of the cities comprehensive trail plan. A linear grass outlot that serves as a neighborhood trail corridor does exist to the north and east of the Yoberry plat. This outlot was acquired at the time the Highover addition was platted. The applicant for the Yoberry plat has acknowledged the presence of this outlot and is providing a sidewalk and stairway connection to the outlot at an appropriate location. It should be noted that the terrain in this vicinity of the plat requires the installation the stairway, a condition that will limit the types of uses appropriate in this corridor. Yoberry Farms Rezoning and Subdivision Planning Case No. 0443 December 7, 2004 Page 10 Upon completion of the Yoberry neighborhood it will be necessary to complete the sidewalk connection along to Long acres Drive. This will require the installation of sidewalk in front of four homes on the west side of Gunflint trail. TREE PRESERVATION/LANDSCAPING Tree canopy calculations have been submitted for the Yoberry development. They are as follows: Total upland area (excluding wetlands) 35.9 ac. Baseline canopy coverage 45% or 16.17 ac. Minimum canopy coverage allowed 35% or 12.57 ac. Proposed tree preservation 14% or 5.03 ac. Developer does not meet minimum canopy coverage allowed, therefore the difference between the baseline and proposed tree preservation is multiplied by 1.2 to calculate the required replacement plantings. Difference in canopy coverage 328,399 SF or 7.54 ac. Multiplier 1.2 Total replacement 394,079 SF Total number of trees to be planted 362 trees Additional tree removal must be added to the submitted calculations to allow for tree removal on the custom graded lots. According to ordinance, 105 feet from the property line is considered a removal area for the construction of a home, driveway and any decks, porches or other such features. There are 6 custom -graded lots in the development. The approximate removal area for these lots is 49,200 square feet. Revised calculations are as follows: Total upland area (excluding wetlands) 35.9 ac. Baseline canopy coverage 45% or 16.17 ac. Minimum canopy coverage allowed 35% or 12.57 ac. Proposed tree preservation 11% or 3.90 ac. Developer does not meet minimum canopy coverage allowed, therefore the difference between the baseline and proposed tree preservation is multiplied by 1.2 to calculate the required replacement plantings. Difference in canopy coverage 377,599 SF or 7.54 ac. Multiplier 1.2 Total replacement 453,119 SF Total number of trees to be planted 416 trees The applicant has shown a total of 416 trees in the landscape plan. Bufferyard requirements are as shown in the table: Yoberry Farms Rezoning and Subdivision Planning Case No. 04-43 December 7, 2004 Page 11 Landscaping Item Re uired Proposed Bufferyard B* - West 13 overstory trees Existing tree/shrub line property line (1290') 26 understory trees and existing difference in 90 26 shrubs grade elevations Applicant meets minimum requirements for bufferyard plantings. According to the tree preservation plans dated 11/15/04, Lot 3, Block 1 of Yoberry 2°d Addition is to be custom graded. However, on grading plans of the same date, the lot is being graded in conjunction with the street. This lot may represent additional tree removal for the development. Staff recommends that the developer clarify how tree removal for lot 3 has been calculated. While the site has many lowland forest species such as boxelder, ash, willow and cottonwood there are a number of very large, upland hardwood specimens as well. Oaks, maples, some black cherry and a tamarack that range in diameter from 20 inches up to 55 inches dot the landscape on the western side of the property. Many of these are in direct conflict with street and home construction, but a handful of them will be left within custom -graded lots. Staff recommends that great care be taken during home construction to preserve as many of the significant trees as possible. COMPLIANCE WITH ORDINANCE - RSF DISTRICT Area (sq. ft.)

Lori Haak City of Chanhassen 7700 Market Blvd. P.O. Box 147 Chanhassen, MN 55317 Re: Highover / Yoberry Farm Pond Dear Lori: My husband James and I live at 7048 Highover Court in Chanhassen, and we overlook a pond the developer of Highover constructed several years ago. A week or so ago I met with Bill Coffman, a member of the development team that is involved with the development of the Youngquist Property, and we discussed the pond in the rear of our property. We would like to inform the City that we would very much prefer the pond to stay in its present location as we feel it offers us a valuable amenity in several ways. It attracts wildlife (deer and water fowl) that we enjoy, it serves as a `water feature" that enhances our view and our family enjoys ice skating on it during the winter. Please be advised we support the current location of this pond whole heartedly. Thank you very much for your consideration in this matter.

The issues are discussed below. Finance LOCATION OF GUNFLINT TRAIL CUL-DE-SAC Phone: 952.227.1140 Fax: 952.W.1 110 At the public hearing, both residents and Planning Commissioners expressed Park & Recreation concerns over the location, lack of buffering, and the retaining wall adjacent to Phone. 952.227.1120 Fax 952.V7.1 110 the eastern cul-de-sac of Gunflint Trail. One of the suggestions at the hearing was Recreation Center to consider moving the cul-de-sac to the west along the wetland and putting the 2310 Couper Boulevard lots on the east side of the road. The developer has looked at this option (shown Phone: 952.227.1400 as attached Option Q. The option does not work for a few reasons. First, it Fax 952 227.1404 requires extensive grading and tree removal along the wetland. In addition, it Planning & requires the construction of an 11 -foot high retaining wall along the entire east Natural Resources side of the wetland in order to "hold up" the road. Finally, Option C doesn't work Phone: 952.227.1130 with the natural contours of the land as well as the original sal. Instead of � Fax: 952.227. 1110 having the rearyard walk -outs of the lots on the natural low side with the wetland, Public works Option C has it reversed with the rearyards on the east side which is naturally 1591 Park Road high. Phone: 952.227.1300 Fax: 952.227.1310 The developer also looked at the option of a private street at the end of Gunflint Senior Center Trail (attached Option B). In staffs opinion, this option does not reduce the Phone: 952.227.1125 Fax: 952.227.1110 amount of grading vs. the public street option. Also, the location of the private street is actually closer to the eastern property line than the original proposal. Web site Finally, the private street option would require two variances to obtain the four www ci.chanhassennn. us lots that the public option obtains. One variance would be for the private street itself and the second would be for the width of Lot 1. With the public street option, no variances are required. In an attempt to address the concerns raised at the public hearing, the developer has made some revision to the public street option (attached Option A). This includes revising the grading to eliminate the retaining wall along the east side of the road and to save additional trees to the north of the cul-de-sac. The developer has also received approval from Xcel Energy to install bushes or a hedge within The City of Chanhassen • A growing community with clean lakes, quality schools, a charming downtown, thriving businesses, winding trails, and beautiful parks. A great place to live, work, and play. Sharmeen Al-Jaff January 12, 2005 Page 2 the electric line easement along the east side of the road. This proposed vegetation (shown on the attached Landscaping Plan) will provide a buffer between the roadway and the exiting homes along Harrison Hill Trail to the east. With these revisions, staff is in favor of the public street option. STREET CONNECTION TO TH 41 After the last Planning Commission meeting, staff contacted MnDOT personnel both by email (attached) and telephone. MnDOT stated that they are not in favor of an additional street connection to TH 41. They stated that their minimum spacing requirement for new street connections along arterial highways is a half mile. The current distance between Longacres Drive and Lake Lucy Road (approximately 4,100 feet) is less than one mile. This means any new access point between the two existing streets would be less than a half mile and, thus, not meet the spacing requirement. In addition, with the existing street system that is in place around the proposed development, MnDOT did not see a reason that an additional street connection to TH 41 would be needed. It should be noted, MnDOT also stated in their attached development review memo that they would like access control along TH 41 dedicated on the plat. Access control basically means that no access will be allowed where access control exists. Staff is in concurrence with MnDOT on this issue. Given the steep terrain and bluffs along the eastern side of TH 41; the existing street system with collector roads immediately adjacent to the site on the north and south; and the fact that the local roads (Highover Drive and Gunflint Trail) which are stubbed to the property have always been planned to be extended to serve the site, staff sees no compelling reason to force a new street connection to TH 41.

The existing parcel has a wide variety of grade changes within its limits. The site elevations range from a high of 1084± to a low of 992±. These severe elevation differences make this site a challenging one to both develop and minimize grading. The plans propose to grade about 80% of the site for the 58 new house pads, a proposed street system, three cul-de-sacs and stormwater ponds. The proposed grading will prepare the site for full basement, look -out and walk -out type house pads. Retaining walls are proposed in numerous locations throughout the site. The applicant must be aware that any retaining wall over four feet in height must be designed by a registered civil engineer and a permit from the city building department must be obtained. In addition, encroachment agreements will be required for any retaining wall within a public easement. Staff is concerned with the large number of lots that have steep rearyard slopes off the housepad and very little useable rearyard. Staff is, therefore, recommending that all lots have a minimum of 20 feet off the back of the housepad that is relatively flat with a maximum slope of 10:1. In addition, the eastern end of Gunflint Trail contains three retaining walls just off the right-of-way. To better match the existing grades and minimize the wall height on two of the retaining walls, staff is recommending that the applicant increase the street grades moving west from the cul-de-sac. This would lower the street in the area of the curve and existing wetland and decrease the amount of fill that is required. The existing site drainage is encompassed within three main drainage areas. Under existing conditions, the eastern portion of the site drains to an existing wetland complex to the east and south; the northwestern part of the site drains off - The City of Chanhassen • A growing community with clean lakes, quality schools, a charming downtown, thriving businesses, winding trails, and beautiful parks. A gnat place to live, work, and play. Sharmeen Al-Jaff November 30, 2004 Page 2 site to a western TH 41 ditch; and the southwestern part of the site drains off-site to the south. Under developed conditions, the applicant is proposing to capture the street drainage, front -yard drainage and rearyard drainage from most of the lots. The stormwater that is captured will be conveyed via storm sewer to proposed ponds in the southeasterly and southwesterly corners of the site for treatment. The proposed ponds must be designed to National Urban Runoff Program (NURP) standards with maximum 3:1 slopes and a 10:1 bench at the NWL. Staff is concerned with the location of the outlet pipe from the proposed pond in the southwest comer of the site. The applicant will need to provide additional information showing that this pipe is discharging to a public drainage and utility easement. Two storm water ponds are proposed in conjunction with this development. In addition, a temporary pond that was constructed with the Highover subdivision is proposed to remain. The applicant has indicated that he has met with the property owners of Lot 23, Block 3, Highover who are aware that the temporary pond will not be relocated. The applicant must submit a letter from the owners of Lot 23, Block 3 that indicates they understand that the pond will not be moved. The pond built in conjunction with the Highover subdivision must be maintained to ensure it meets the size and volume standards to which it was originally designed. Any inlet and outlet structures on that pond requiring maintenance or replacement must be corrected. In addition, areas experiencing erosion due to storm water discharge must be stabilized. While the applicant is proposing to treat most of the site drainage with on-site ponding, there is a small area in the central portion of the site which will not be treated. Proposed catch basins at the intersection of Street B and Gunflint Trail will capture this drainage and connect with the existing storm sewer in Gunflint Trail. This storm sewer drains to an existing pond in the Longacres subdivision south of the site. The applicant must submit information showing that this pond has been previously sized for the additional drainage from the Yoberry Farms development. Otherwise, on-site ponding will be required for this drainage area. Drainage calculations for the site have been submitted and some changes remain. The applicant is required to meet the existing site runoff rates for the 10 -year and 100 -year, 24-hour storm events. Storm sewer sizing calculations must be submitted at the time of final plat application. The storm sewer must be sized for a 10 -year, 24-hour storm event. Drainage and utility easements must be dedicated on the final plat over the public storm drainage system including ponds, drainage swales, and wetlands up to the 100 -year flood level. Proposed erosion control must be developed in accordance with the City's Best Management Practice Handbook (BMPH). Staff recommends that Type 11 silt fence, which is a heavy duty fence, be used adjacent to the existing wetlands and Sharmeen Al-Jaff November 30, 2004 Page 3 around the ponds. In addition, tree preservation fencing must be installed at the limits of tree removal. Erosion control blankets are recommended for all areas with a steep slope of 3:1 and an elevation drop of eight feet or greater. All disturbed areas, as a result of construction, must be seeded and mulched or sodded immediately after grading to minimize erosion. The applicant should be aware that any off-site grading will require an easement from the appropriate property owner. If importing or exporting material for development of the site is necessary, the applicant will be required to supply the City with detailed haul routes. Municipal sewer and water service is available to the site from Gunflint Trail in the south and from Highover Drive to the north. The applicant is proposing to connect to the existing watermain at both ends and loop it through the site. The City's Water System Master Plan calls for a 12 -inch diameter watermain to connect the existing 12 -inch main in Highover Drive to the north with the existing 16 -inch main in Longacres Drive just south of the site. To comply with the Master Plan, the applicant is proposing to install the 12 -inch watermain connection through the site. Since the applicant is only required to install an 8 - inch main to serve the proposed lots, the watermain oversizing cost will be paid by the City from the water portion of the City's utility fund. Currently, there is an existing temporary lift station at the south end of Highover Drive. This temporary lift station, which serves five homes, has only one pump and is not owned or maintained by the City. As part of the Highover subdivision approval and development contract, the temporary lift station was to be removed when the property to the south (Yoberry Farms) was developed. In fact, the City is holding a letter of credit to ensure this happens. When the temporary lift station is removed, it was always the intention to have a permanent lift station installed within the north part of the Yoberry Farms plat. The permanent lift station would be built to City standards and would be turned over to the City for maintenance and ownership. This is in accordance with the City's Sanitary Sewer Comprehensive Plan. Staff has previously informed the applicant of this requirement but, currently, the plans do not reflect this. Staff is still recommending that the plans be revised to follow the Comprehensive Plan and provide a permanent lift station. The underlying property has been previously assessed for sewer and water improvements and those assessments have been paid. The sanitary sewer and water hookup charges along with the Lake Ann Interceptor charge will be applicable for each of the new lots. The 2004 trunk hookup charge is $1,458.00 per unit for sanitary sewer and $2,814.00 per unit for watermain. The total 2004 Lake Ann Interceptor charge is $2,102 per unit and the SAC fee is $1,425.00 per Sharmeen AI-7aff November 30, 2004 Page 4 unit. All of these charges are based on the number of SAC units assigned by the Metropolitan Council. Sanitary sewer and water -main hookup fees may be specially assessed against the parcel at the time of building permit issuance. All of the utility improvements are required to be constructed in accordance with the City's latest edition of Standard Specifications and Detail Plates. Upon completion of the utility improvements, the utilities will be turned over to the City for maintenance and ownership. The applicant is also required to enter into a development contract with the City and supply the necessary financial security in the form of a letter of credit or cash escrow to guarantee installation of the improvements and the conditions of final plat approval. The applicant must be aware that all public utility improvements will require a pre -con meeting before building permit issuance. Permits from the appropriate regulatory agencies will have to be obtained, including but not limited to the MPCA, NPDES, Watershed District, Department of Health, and MnDOT. STREETS Overall, the proposed street layout appears to work well. The entire street system is shown within a 60 -foot wide public right-of-way with 31 -foot wide streets in accordance with City design criteria. Sidewalk is proposed on one side of all the through streets. The plans propose to extend two public streets to service the site from Highover Drive to the north and Gunflint Trail from the south. The proposed streets will provide a connection between Gunflint Trail and Highover Drive. These types of street connections are always preferred for emergency access and to provide residents an alternate route to get to/from their homes. The applicant should be aware that the minimum curve radius allowed on public streets is 180 feet. There are a few proposed curves which will have to be revised to meet this criteria. There is a small portion of the proposed right-of-way for Gunflint Trail that encroaches into an existing electric utility easement along the eastern property line of the site. The applicant will need to obtain an agreement from Xcel Energy that prohibits any future encroachment of the power poles into the street pavement or move the street and right-of-way outside of the existing easement area. RECOMMENDED CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL 1. The applicant will be required to meet the existing site runoff rates for the 10 - year and 100 -year, 24-hour storm events. The proposed ponds must be designed to National Urban Runoff Program (NURP) standards. 2. The storm sewer must be designed for a 10 -year, 24-hour storm event.

As such this development will directly affect my and my family's life in this city. However after careful study of the staff report for this project and the associated plans, I have to admit that overall this looks like a reasonably well thought through and solid proposal. Also, contrary to what is stated on the meeting agenda, this proposal appears to be variance free. There is a silver lining to this for my family in that we stand to get half of that 25 -foot no -man's land strip to our South (Outlot G). Initially the developers attorney was trying to coax my neighbors and me into waving all rights to this land; but then they reconsidered when I asked why they should have more claim to this no -man's land than the folks on the opposite side. Two huge impacts from this project overall are the proposed amount of grading and tree cutting. Viewed from my environmental stance, cutting 45% canopy down to 11%, including a majority of significant trees, some of which are most exquisite specimens (for example tree #216), and the amount of grading is insane. Grading changes, for example in the middle of this development take out 44 feet, in the SW add 22 feet, and in other places change grades by 15 feet. But considering the constraints of this site and the approach chosen by the developers and their rights, the City may not be able to change that by much; though I wish a way could be found to reduce the severity of grading and tree cutting, to save some more of the rolling topography and significant trees. It will be a very long time before the many newly planted trees start to balance the scale of this impact. Though there is a detailed tree inventory, it does not specify which trees are cut or saved except on the drawing. It would be most desirable to identify some more significant trees with a possibility to be saved. With all this grading and tree cutting, the City's finding is unacceptable that "the proposed subdivision will not cause environmental damage subject to conditions of approval." Personally, in view of my current family home, my main concerns with this development are the proximity of the Gunflint Trail cul-de-sac and the bordering of a side yard (Lot 1, Block 4, 1st Addition) to our backyard, the associated grading and tree cutting and eventually the placement of a home on that lot. This adjoining lot appears somewhat forced with its awkward shape. You may want to understand how they meet the 90 feet frontage requirement. It's pretty creative. There is a drainage issue in that the backyards of my house and some of my neighbors to the N drain right through the middle of that proposed lot, heading right for any house that will be built there. I am not sure how that can be mitigated. Initially I was hoping that there might be a possibility this lot could be eliminated. If Xcel Energy does not grant an encroachment easement for Gunflint Trail on the E that would push Gunflint Trail a little more W and the 180 degree curve radius requirement may shift the road further in, so Block 4 may need to be reduced to 3 lots. But it appears that Xcel is likely to grant this easement, and if there would be an issue with fitting ih 4 lots there, the developer is likely to propose a private road for these which is not desirable for the City, would complicate the NW neighborhood trail connection, and could cause more negative impacts on my house in terms of road and house proximities. Thus I let go of my hopes for a possibility to eliminate Lot 1 Block 4. However there are some specific aspects I would r like to ask you to consider: 1) Please anchor in that all trees on Outlot G are to be protected. The S of my backyard is a tree preservation area with some significant, beautiful trees. Some more of these trees are in the proposed outlot; and tree preservation should be extended over that. On some of the drawings it appears that clear cutting the canopy will reach all the way to my current S lot line. Tree protection fencing will need to be placed to give these trees a reasonable chance of survival. Specifically I am referring to trees 186 through 192, and what appears on the drawing as trro20, trwo20, and trro30. Especially tree 192 deserves and needs some extra attention and protection. It would be nice to also save 193 though that one is less significant. 2) Retaining walls are used in several places, and staff is proposing to lower some of them. Please note that I much appreciate the height of the most NE retaining wall (the one N of the Gunflint Train cul-de-sac) and would not want to see it decreased at all. It gives my home some limited protection from headlights shining into the back of our house. Staff does not appear to propose lowering that retaining wall but the two to S of it. I would like to make sure that is clearly understood as such. 3) Considering that it appears that my house will be stuck with a cul-de-sac and side yard abutting our backyard, I would appreciate any and all buffering possible. It appears that the proposed retaining wall and plantings will buffer my house from part of the cul-de-sac. However, if possible, I would like to ask for some more (three?) evergreens to be planted along the edge of the proposed canopy removal line abutting the W portion my backyard, and that the cutting and grading in that area be minimized as much a possible. 4) It should be noted that Outlot G should only extend as far to the E as the lot of my house. The rest containing the trail and utility easements needs to be part of Outlot D. Further, the line separating the 1st and 2nd Additions is by 32.5 feet too far to the S. This line needs to be moved N to coincide with lot lines. This will put outlots D through G into the 1st Addition. From a Highover neighborhood vantage point the following three items are significant. They are touched upon in the staff report: a) The temporary storm water pond on the S of Highover was considered temporary so far. This development proposes to leave it there and make it permanent. As I see it, this is very desirable for the Highover neighborhood. However it needs to be clearly specified that the City will take on maintenance of that pond. b) The temporary lift station on the current S stub of Highover Drive is to be removed and a permanent one built as part of this development. Then ownership and maintenance of this permanent lift station is to be taken on by the City. c) The plans show a neighborhood trail connection in the NW corner of the proposed development. That is very important as it connects to a city owned outlot and trail easement along the whole E side of Highover that will be useless unless connected here to the sidewalk on Gunflint Trail. This trail connection is not mentioned in the conditions of approval. Some further questions and details I noticed studying this project: A) Where will the main construction access point be? It would be most desirable to limit construction traffic access the through the established neighborhoods to the N and S and have it from 41 as much as possible. B) Condition 19 asks for driveway access from TH41 to be removed for demolished home sites. This should also apply to the remaining old homes? s C) What impact does the 180 -degree mad curve limitation have on the plat? D) Condition 21 refers to a minimum usable area in the back of the house pad to have limited slope. This is meaningless unless we have quantification of how much is usable. 20 feet? E) The 423 square feet impact to wetland 2 is not to accommodate a road but to push wetland out of a backyard. It's the balance of how much wetland impact is allowed the de-minimis exemption. They obviously intend to take advantage of this exemption to very maximum. Again, please note that I am addressing you here as a local resident on this issue, and that Rich will preside over the discussion of this item at the Planning Commission. I plan to remove myself to the audience during that time and may participate in the public hearing from that end. Thank you for all your consideration and efforts.

The two curves leading into the SW and NE cul-de-sacs, in my opinion the two most forced areas of this proposal, both seem to have a radius of 100 or less feet. I would expect that a variance relaxing the curve radius requirement in these two cases would be required for the current Yoberry Farms proposal to properly go through. Being focused on the NE comer, it looks like a curve radius adjustment there may create an issue with having 4 lots in block 4. Already, lots 3 & 4 are minimum size, and lot width may become an even more delicate issue there. Along with the inherent drainage problem on lot 1, this could become good reason to reduce block 4 to 3 lots. Also, a private street there would not save any significant features and thus not be justified, nor would it allow for more lots as a turn -around would be needed both at the end of the public as well as at the private street, in effect almost doubling the space needed for turn -grounds. Thank you for all your efforts balancing developers' and residents' interests.

That is very important as it connects to a city owned outlot and trail easement along the whole E side of Highover that will be useless unless connected here to the sidewalk on Gunflint Trail. This trail connection is not mentioned in the conditions of approval. Some further questions and details I noticed studying this project: A) Where will the main construction access point be? It would be most desirable to limit construction traffic access the through the established neighborhoods to the N and S and have it from 41 as much as possible. B) Condition 19 asks for driveway access from TH41 to be removed for demolished home sites. This should also apply to the remaining old homes? C) What impact does the 180 -degree road curve limitation have on the plat? D) Condition 21 refers to a minimum usable area in the back of the house pad to have limited slope. This is meaningless unless we have quantification of how much is usable. 20 feet? E) The 423 square feet impact to wetland 2 is not to accommodate a road but to push wetland out of a backyard. It's the balance of how much wetland impact is allowed the de-minimis exemption. They obviously intend to take advantage of this exemption to very maximum. Again, please note that I am addressing you here as a local resident on this issue, and that Rich will preside over the discussion of this item at the Planning Commission. I plan to remove myself to the audience during that time and may participate in the public hearing from that end. Thank you for all your consideration and efforts.

LOCATION: North of West 79" Street, east of Market Boulevard, south of Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul, and Pacific Railroad APPLICANT: Semper Development, Ltd. Robert Dittrich 821 Marquette Avenue South Americana Bank Suite 600 2110 Noah Broadway Minneapolis, MN 55402 New Ulm, MN 56073 (6129)332-1500 (507)359-2650 PRESENT ZONING: BH, Highway Business District 2020 LAND USE PLAN: Commercial ACREAGE: 1.61 acres SUMMARY OF REQUEST: Request for site plan approval to construct a one-story, 15,000 square - foot retail building on a 1.61 -acre lot zoned BH. A conditional use permit is also being requested for an LID sign. Notice of this public hearing has been mailed to all property owners within 500 feet. Staff is recommending approval of the request. LEVEL OF CITY DISCRETION IN DECISION-MAKING: 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. The City's discretion in approving or denying a variance is limited to whether or not the proposed project meets the standards in the Zoning Ordinance for variance. The City has a relatively high level of discretion with a variance because the burden of proof is on the applicant to show that they meet the standards in the ordinance. The City has limited discretion in approving or denying conditional use permits, based on whether or not the proposal meets the conditional use permit standards outlined in the Zoning Ordinance. If the City finds that all the applicable conditional use permit standards are met, the permit must be approved. This is a quasi-judicial decision. e) The proposed subdivision will not cause environmental damage; f) The proposed subdivision will not conflict with easements of record; and g) The proposed subdivision is not premature. A subdivision is premature if any of the following exists: 1. Lack of adequate storm water drainage. 2. Lack of adequate roads. 3. Lack of adequate sanitary sewer systems. 4. Lack of adequate off-site public improvements or support systems. 5. The planning report Planning Case 04-43, dated January 4, 2005, prepared by Sharmeen Al-Jaff, et al, is incorporated herein. RECOMMENDATION The Planning Commission recommends that the City Council approve the Preliminary Plat. ADOPTED by the Chanhassen Planning Commission this 0 day of January, 2005.

As we understand, the proposed access would be between Long Acres Drive and Lake Lucy Road. TH 41 in Carver County is classified as an A minor arterial on the regional transportation system. This, in conjunction with lack of other north south arterial roadways in this part of the metro area, necessitate that Mn/DOT manage access:to this facility in a very conservative manner. Currently this two-lane rural design highway facility cares nearly 15,000 trips per day. In order to ensure safe access points for local collector roadways and balance the operation needs of the highway, it is important to keep spacing at 1/2 mile or greater for local road connections on these types of facilities. With that said, we have reviewed the desire to have an additional access and found that this vicinity of Chanhassen is already served by two collector level streets at a distance of approximately 0.7 miles apart. Additionally, the two collectors that already exist at Long Acres Drive and Lake Lucy Road have tum lanes on TH 41 to assist traffic in making safer turns. A new street between Long Acres Drive and Lake Lucy Road would be required to have a minimum spacing of 0.5 mile to the next adjacent access to TfI41. The location of the Yoberry Farms development is already served by two collector level streets with access to TH 41 in a very short distance, thus a new access in this vicinity is not warranted. If you have any further questions concerning this matter, please contact me at (651) 582- 1409.
