Liberty at Creekside . Planning Case #05-24 SUBJ: EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The developer, NDI Minnesota, LLC, is requesting another one-year extension of the preliminary plat for Liberty at Creekside to May 22,2009. This project was originally taken through the development review process by Town & Country Homes. However, NDI Minnesota, LLC has been the underlying property owner. NDI Minnesota, LLC wishes to preserve the development approvals on the site. The extension is necessary due to the current depressed market conditions for residential development and construction, the lack of development on adjacent properties through which access to this property must be made, and a contractual dispute between the property owner and Mr. Jeurissen, the former property owner. Section 18-41 of the Chanhassen City Code requires that the subdivider request final plat approval within one year of the preliminary plat approval unless a request, in writing, is submitted to the City requesting for good cause for an extension of the preliminary plat. Staff can attest to the slowdown in the residential housing market. Additionally, the right-of-way from Bluff Creek Boulevard to the adjacent property has not been dedicated and the recording of the final plat for the Pioneer Pass development, immediately west of the site, has not been completed, which included the right-of-way providing access to this property. The City and developer worked diligently to create a well-designed project with diverse housing styles. There have been no amendments to the City Code that would adversely affect the conditions of approval for the Liberty at Creekside development. All the conditions of approval shall remain in force for the development. All fees were specified as those in effect at the time of final plat approval. Staff is recommending approval of the applicant's request for a one-year extension to May 22,2009. BACKGROUND On May 29, 2007, the Chanhassen City Council approved a one year extension to the preliminary plat. 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.

Box 147 Chanhassen, MN 55317 RE: Liberty at Creek Side Chanhassen Planning Case No. 05-24 Request for Extension Dear Mr. Generous: On behalfofNDI Minnesota, LLC, I am writing to request a one (1) year extension of the preliminary plat approval for the Liberty at Creek Side development, which I understand would extend the current approval to May 22, 2009. This extension is necessary in light of current depressed market condition impacting residential development and construction, lack of development on adjoining and nearby parcels, and a contractual dispute between NDI MN, LLC and Mr. Jeurissen.
