SUBJ:
Metropolitan Council Livable Communities Demonstration Grant
Application: Consider Approval of Resolution in Support of
Applying for Funds for Improvements Related to Construction of
the Downtown Park & Ride Facility
PROPOSED MOTION:
"Staff recommends that City Council adopt the attached resolution identifying the
need for Livable Communities Demonstration account funding and authorizing an
application for grant funds."
Approval requires a simple majority vote of the City Council.
BACKGROUND
The city is requesting funding for a public street connection as well as related
infrastructure improvements to provide access to the proposed Downtown Park
& Ride facility. The street will also provide access for future development in
this area.
The Livable Communities Demonstration Account was established by the
Livable Communities Act (LCA), Minnesota Statues section 473.25(b). The
Demonstration Account provides funds to support development or
redevelopment projects that connect development with transit-intensive land
uses, connect housing and employment, provide a mix of housing affordability,
and/or provide infrastructure to connect communities and attract investment.
ANAYLSIS
The grant proposal must involve new development, redevelopment, or infill
development. Attached is a copy of the grant identifying the specific requests.
The public street and infrastructure provides access to the park-and-ride, a
connection to two minor collector streets, and jobs and retail centers.

DATE:
RESOLUTION NO:
2009-
MOTION BY:
SECONDED BY:
A RESOLUTION IDENTIFYING THE NEED FOR
LIVABLE COMMUNITIES DEMONSTRATION ACCOUNT FUNDING AND
AUTHORIZING AN APPLICATION FOR GRANT FUNDS
WHEREAS, the City of Chanhassen, Minnesota is a participant in the Livable
Communities Act's Housing Incentives Program for 2009 as determined by the Metropolitan
Council, and is therefore eligible to apply for Livable Communities Demonstration Account
funds; and
WHEREAS, the City has identified a proposed project within the City that meets the
Demonstration Account's purposes and criteria and is consistent with and promotes the purposes
of the Metropolitan Livable Communities Act and the policies of the Metropolitan Council's
adopted metropolitan development guide; and
WHEREAS, the City has the institutional, managerial and financial capability to ensure
adequate project administration; and
WHEREAS, the City certifies that it will comply with all applicable laws and regulations
as stated in the grant agreement; and
WHEREAS, the City agrees to act as legal sponsor for the project contained in the grant
application submitted on August 10, 2009; and
WHEREAS, the City acknowledges Livable Communities Demonstration Account
grants are intended to fund projects or project components that can serve as models, examples or
prototypes for development or redevelopment projects elsewhere in the region, and therefore
represents that the proposed project or key components of the proposed project can be replicated
in other metropolitan-area communities; and
WHEREAS, only a limited amount of grant funding is available through the Metropolitan
Council's Livable Communities Demonstration Account during each funding cycle and the
Metropolitan Council has determined it is appropriate to allocate those scarce grant funds only to
eligible projects that would not occur without the availability of Demonstration Account grant
funding.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that after appropriate examination and due
consideration, the governing body of the City:
1
1. Finds that it is in the best interests of the City's development goals and priorities for the
proposed project to occur at this particular site and at this particular time.
2. Finds that the project component(s) for which Livable Communities Demonstration Account
funding is sought:
(a) will not occur solely through private or other public investment within the reasonably
foreseeable future; and
(b) will not occur within two years after a grant award unless Livable Communities
Demonstration Account funding is made available for this project at this time.
3. Represents that the City has undertaken reasonable and good faith efforts to procure funding
for the project component for which Livable Communities Demonstration Account funding
is sought but was not able to find or secure from other sources funding that is necessary for
project component completion within two years and states that this representation is based
on the following reasons and supporting facts:
(a) The property owner of the Chanhassen Dinner Theatre currently has existing driveway
access for their property.
(b) SouthWest Transit may access their proposed park and ride facility through existing
driveway access.
(c) The City has no dedicated funding source for construction of the proposed roadway.
(d) The proposed roadway has potential benefit beyond the two immediate adjacent
property owners.
4. Authorizes its Community Development Director to submit on behalf of the City an application
for Metropolitan Council Livable Communities Demonstration Account grant funds for the
project component(s) identified in the application, and to execute such agreements as may be
necessary to implement the project on behalf of the City.
Passed and adopted by the Chanhassen City Council this 10th day of August, 2009.

Section I.A. The Project. The Project includes activities you are proposing to fund with an LCDA grant and must also include
project components (residential or commercial buildings, etc.) supported by the funded activities that will be completed within the 24-month
grant term (grant term begins at January 2010 grant award date). Applications that do not include development components that will be
completed within the 24 month grant term, in addition to the items(s) proposed to be funded with an LeDA grant, are ineligible.
What are you proposing to fund with an LCDA grant? (e.g. street, land acquisition, public-use structured parking,
stormwater activities, etc.). If you are requesting more than one item, list them all briefly (add detail in Sec. I.B, page 2).
Total funding requested: $1,367,731
Describe the Project.
The Project includes the activities you propose to fund with an LCDA grant and the development components supported by the grant, that
will be completed within the 24-month grant term (grant term begins at January 2010 grant award date). You will be asked to include more
detail on the development components of the Project in Sections I.E. through 1.1. Include data and information aboutfuture project phases
(if applicable) beyond the 24-month 2rant term in Section I.C. (Limit 20 lines)
The City is proposing the construction of a public street to provide access to the Chanhassen Dinner Theatre, a new park-
and-ride ramp for SouthWest Transit, the Frontier Building, Chanhassen Cinema and the Market Street Station
development. Included in the street project for LCDA funding are the acquisition, relocation costs and demolition of the
scenery workshop for the Dinner Theatre, acquisition of the road right-of-way, acquisition of the Chanhassen Depot site,
demolition of an existing bus shelter, a sidewalk connection to the City's existing sidewalk system, the relocation of
sewer, water mains and a storm water conveyance system and undergrounding of the electric lines.
This location also represents the core area for future redevelopment and Transit-oriented development (TOD) in the
downtown. The property is within the Central Business District, CBD, zone. This district permits commercial, office and
residential development. The core area of the TOD is a relatively dense mixed-use development. The Dinner Theatre and
Frontier buildings were constructed in the 1950s and are prime candidates for redevelopment. The provision of a public
street access to this area allows for a greater intensification of the area uses.
The site is adjacent to the Norwood/Y oung America (Twin Cities & Western Railroad) Corridor, which is a possible
future commuter rail route to the southwest from Minneapolis.
The construction of this roadway not only improves access for the park-and-ride ramp and existing commercial
development, but facilitates the future redevelopment of the area.

The property owner currently receives sufficient rents so that the redevelopment of the site is not a priority.
Without a means to reduce the total cost of the project, the property owners may not agree to the public street.
The City has invested a significant amount of money in the downtown area over the past 20 years to create an
attractive, pedestrian-friendly, mixed-use environment. The proposed public street access will provide
additional incentive to redevelop the downtown area through the creation of a continuous east-west street from
Market Boulevard to Great Plains Boulevard as well as the provision of public utilities. Without the public
infrastructure (streets, sewer and water), financial institutions will not provide fmancing for private
development/redevelopment of the area.

The City does not have a dedicated funding source for the construction of a new local street. The City does
budget pavement maintenance funds for the long-term maintenance of the existing street system. The City
projects a deficit in these funds in the future, so these funds will not be available for new road construction.
The City's primary means of funding development improvements is TIF. However, due to the lack of additional
private development within the near term, insufficient increment would be generated for the project. However,
the City will be establishing a tax increment district for a period of 10 years to potentially reduce the special
assessments on the project.
Due to market conditions and reduction in property valuation, local property taxes will be decreasing, resulting
in a reduction in City services.
Sewer, stormwater and water utility fees. The City replenishes it utility capital funds through development fees
on new subdivisions. Due to development, economic and market conditions, new development has virtually
stopped in the city. There are insufficient funds currently available for utility extensions.
Assessments are the only alternate funding sources available. However, should the assessment get too large, the
property owners may object, stopping the project.

CITY OF CHANHASSEN
DOWNTOWN TRANSIT STATION SITE IMPROVEMENTS
CITY PROJECT 08-11
PROJECT SUMMARY
A feasibility study and report has been prepared for the Downtown Transit Station Site
Improvements, City Project 08-11. The project includes the construction of public
roadway and utility improvements to support the proposed construction of a 420 car
parking ramp/transit station for SouthWest Transit. The parking ramp is proposed to be
constructed along the south side of West 78th Street between Market Boulevard and Great
Plains Boulevard, directly behind the Chanhassen Dinner Theater.
The public improvements are proposed to be constructed in two phases. Phase 1 will
include the demolition of the existing scene shop building for the Dinner Theater and a
bus stop enclosure, sanitary sewer relocation, and watermain improvements to prepare for
the construction of the parking ramp/transit station. Phase 2 will include street and storm
drainage improvements in conjunction with the construction of the transit station.
The estimated costs for the proposed improvements are detailed below. These costs
include a 10 percent construction cost contingency and a 30 percent allowance for
indirect costs.
