City Council Update on Minnetonka West Interim Use Permit
IUP No. 2003-2 and Grading Permit No. 03-04
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The applicant is requesting an interim use earthwork permit 0LIP) to grade
approximately 8,000 cubic yards of material for site improvements to the
Minnetonka School District's Jr. High site in Chanhassem The site improvements
include a revised parking lot area, a new stormwater pond and a bituminous trail
from the parking lot to Melody Hill Road.
The following issues were raised at the June 3, 2003 Planning Commission
meeting. A planned course of action is listed beneath each condition-
ho
A resident, who couldn't attend the meeting, was concerned with how the
school was going to handle mosquito control since a pond was now being
installed on the site.
The school does currently spray for mosquitoes. They commented that it
is a delicate balance between spraying too much and not enough. They do
not foresee having to do anything special, but if a problem arises they will
address it.
g.
Neighbors (Mr. & Mrs. Mancino) to the south of the school site were
concerned with an existing erosion and stormwater runoff problem
between their site and the school's property.
Staff commented that the existing erosion problem is really a separate
issue from the IUP. The site improvements to the school's property are
being done on the north part of the site, which is hundreds of yards from
the Mancino's property. Staff did assure the Mancinos, however, that City
staff will contact them to work on a solution to their erosion problem.
C.
The Mancinos asked that the construction hours be limited on Saturday
firom 9am-5pm.
This has been added as a condition-
The City of Chanhaaaen · A growing community with clean lakes, quality schools, a charming dov,,ntown, thriving businesses, winding trails, and beautiful parks. A gmat place to live, work, and pl~y.
Todd Gerhardt, City Manager

D. The Mancinos mentioned that there is a trash dumping problem occurring along their
property line with the school.
The commissioners informed the Mancinos that this is a separate issue from the 1UP
request and one that should be handled privately between the two parties.
E. A couple commissioners were concerned with the proposed hauling operations.
Specifically, these concerns centered on the hours of operation, dust control, and dirt
being tracked onto Highway 41.
Conditions were added that limit the hours of hauling operations fi'om 8:30am-3:30pm
Monday through Friday, require a water truck to be used for dust control on the site, and
require that Highway 41 be monitored and swept as needed.

Plan Revision for Minnetonka West IUP No. 2003-2 & Grading
Permit No. 03-04
On Monday, June 2, 2003, staff received a revised parking lot layout for the
above-referenced project. The revised layout negates the need for a variance with
the project. Specifically, the revised layout eliminates the two-way drive aisle
adjacent to 45° angled parking. Tnstead, a one-way drive aisle is now proposed
along the 45° angle parking. The one-way aisle continues around the perimeter of
the parking area and still keeps the bus and car traffic separated. The revised
layout meets current city code requirements.

APPLICABLE REGUlaTIONS
Chap. 7, Article Ill EXCAVATING, MINING, FII.I.ING AND GRADING ORDINANCE
Section 20-231 through 20-237, Conditional Use Permit
The applicant is requesting an interim use ea~work _permit to grade appro~ly 8,000 cubic yards
of material for site improvements to the Minnetonka School District's Junior I-~gh site in Chanhassen.
The site is located on the east side of state highway 41, just south of Chaaka Road.
The proposal must comply with Chapt~ 7 of the City Code. The ordinance requixes the agplicamt to
provide a haul route for any proposed hauling otnmations associated with the grading work. This
information has not been provided and has been added as a condition of approval. Staff is
recommending approval with conditions.
GRADING/DRAINAGE/EROSION CONTROL
The applicant is requesting an interim use permit to grade approximately 8,000 cubic yards of
material. The grading is being done as a part of some overall site improvements to the property.
These improvements include a revised parking lot with separate areas for car and bus traffic, a pond
to treat the parking lot runoff, and a new bituminous trail fi'om the parking lot to Melody Hill Road.
The grading work is anticipated to begin as soon as permit approval is obtained. Permitted hours of
Minnetonka West 1UP
June, 2003
Page 3
operation are 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m_, Monday through Saturday with no work permitted on Sunday or
legal holidays. Staff has not yet received a proposed haul route as requirecC Staff is recommending
that the applicant provide a proposed haul route for review and approval. The applicant should also
be aware that if any excess material is going to another site in Chanhassen, a separate grading permit
will be required for the other property.
Thc existing parking area on thc east side of the site drains to a storm sewer linc which outlets thc
stormwater to a swale. This swale is within a grove of trees on the north edge of the existing bus
turnaround area. The swale provides the only form of treatment for the stormwater before it is
discharged to the eastern ditch along highway 41. The existing drainage from the east side of the
school and the bus turnaround area flows down the driveway to a storm sewer. This storm sewer
discharges the water to the highway 41 ditch without any prior treatment.
Under the proposed plan, 90% of the improved area will be conveyed to a new NURP pond within
the site. This pond will treat the stormwater prior to dischargi~'ng it to the above-mentioned swale
and, ultimately, the highway 41 ditch. Staff believes the inclusion of the NURP pond is a major
positive for this project. The school property is going from a site with no significant stormwater
treatment, to a site with a NURP pond for treatment. Drainage calculations for the proposed pond
have been submitted. Storm sewer design data must still be submi~ for staff review and approval.
Erosion control has been shown on the plan in ~ce with the City's Best Management
Practices Handbook (BMPI-I). Staff would only recommend that a rock construction entrance be
installed at the beginning of the driveway construction. All disUa'bed areas as a result of
construction are required to be reseeded and mulched within two weeks of site grading.
This interim use permit will expire one year from the date of City Council approval. The permit
maybe renewed, however, on an annual basis subject to City Council approval. If this is necessary,
the applicant will need to request a formal extension 45 days prior to the expiration date. Financial
permit is also subject to administration fees. The administration fees are based on the number of
cubic yards of material being graded. The fees are taken from the Uniform Building Code Appendix,
Chapter 33. Based on 8,000 cubic yards of material, the applicant shall pay the City $296.00 prior to
the City signing the permit.
The proposed interim use permit application is fairly straight forward. With the conditions added by
staff to ensure proper restoration and minimize any traffic conflicts, staff is recommending approval of
the interim use permit.
PARKING LAYOUT
There is one issue with the bus parking layout. Thc applicant has proposed 45°-angle parking with a
two-way drive aisle adjacent to the stalls. City code only allows 45°-angle parking when adjacent to
a one-way drive aisle. Therefore, approval of the submitted plans will be conditioned upon the
applicant receiving a variance for the two-way drive aisle.
A couple of options for the parking layout were discussed with the applicant. One is to simply
convert the 45°-angle parking to parallel parking. The applicant's concern with this option is that
Minnetonka West IUP
June, 2003
Page4
there would not be enough space to hold all of the buses within the parking area before they would
start stacking down the driveway. Another option is to e 'luninate the two-way drive aisle and install
a one-way drive aisle around the perimeter of the parking lot. The applicant's concern with this
option is that they did not want to impact the existing grove of trees on the north side of the parking
lot.
LANDSCAPING
Minimtun requirements for landscaping include 4,901 sq. ft. of landscaped area around the parking
lot, 14 trees for the parking lot, and 10 landscape islands within the parking lots. Applicant's
proposed as compared to the requirements for landscape area and parking lot trees is shown in the
following table.
