AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 20 OF THE
CHANHASSEN CITY CODE, THE ZONING ORDINANCE
CONCERNING RECREATIONAL BEACHLOTS
The City Council of the City of Chanhassen Ordains as
follows:
Section 20-263 of the Chanhassen City Code is hereby amended
to read as follows:
Intent. Based upon experience, it is recognized by the City
that the use of lakeshore by multiple parties may be an intensive
use of lakeshore that may present conflicts with neighboring uses
of lakeshore or the use of other lakeshore on the same lake or
the lake itself. Further, beachlots may generate complaints if
they are not maintained to the same standards as single family
lakeshore lots. Therefore, the City requires the following con-
ditions for recreational beachlots, in addition to such other
conditions that may be prescribed in the permit.
Section 20-263 (7) is amended to read as follows:
• (7) The maximum number of docks on a recreational beachlot
is three (3). No dock shall be permitted on any
recreational beachlot unless the beachlot meets the
following conditions:
(a) Shoreline of at least 200 feet per dock, and
(b) Area of at least 30,000 square feet for the first
dock and additional 20,000 square feet for each
additional dock.
Section 20-263 (13) is amended to read as follows:
(13) All recreational beachlots shall have a buffer sufficient
to insulate other property owners from beachlot activiites.
This buffer may consist of topography, streets, vegetation,
distance (width or depth), or other features or combinations
of features which provide a buffer. To insure appropriate
buffering, the City may impose conditions to insulate
beachlot activiites including, but not limited to:
(a) Increased side or front yard setbacks for beach areas,
docks, racks or other allowed recreational equipment or
activities;
• (b) Hours of use;
(c) Planting and maintenance of trees and shrubs;
(d) Erection of fences;
• (e) Standards of maintenance including mowing and trim-
ming; painting and upkeep of racks, docks and other
equipment; disposal of trash and debris;
(f) Increased width, depth or area requirements based
upon the intensity of the use proposed or the
number of dwellings having rights of access.
To the extent feasible, the City may impose such conditions
even after approval of the beachlot if the city finds it
necessary.
SECTION 2. This ordinance shall be effective immediately
upon its passage and publication.
Adopted by the City Council of the City of Chanhassen this
26th day of February, 1990.
