PROPOSAL /SUMMARY
' The applicant is requesting preliminary plat approval to replat Outlot A, Oakwood Estates into five
lots. As part of the request, the applicant is proposing the final platting of Lots 1 and 2. The site is
generally flat with isolated groups of mature trees and a small pond. The proposal is to develop
the site in two phases. Phase I includes Lots 1 and 2, Block 1. Utility service for Phase I of the
development will be provided under the Lake Riley Area Trunk Utility Improvement Project.
' Phase II, however, will require that the applicant extend an improved road (Quinn Road) and
utilities to the north line of Lot 5. In conjunction with this development proposal, the City will
be upgrading Quinn Road to urban City standards to the north line of Phase I (Lot 2). The
' applicant will be responsible for the further upgrading of Quinn Road to the north line of Phase II
(Lot 5) in conjunction with the second phase of development. A temporary turnaround will be
required at the end of Quinn Road upon construction of Phase II.
City ordinance requires the lowest floor elevation of dwellings adjacent to ponds, lakes, and
wetlands be at least two feet above the 100 -year flood elevation. This will restrict the type of
dwellings to split -entry type homes throughout the development. Staff also recommends that the
walkout or lowest opening of each dwelling be constructed a minimum of one foot above the
emergency overflow swale. The applicant's engineer and staff have discussed adjusting street
grades to provide for the emergency overflow swale between Lots 3 and 4, Block 1. A 20 -foot
wide drainage and utility easement will need to be dedicated on the final plat along the common
property line of Lots 3 and 4.
The applicant is required to have a 35% canopy coverage remaining after construction (.72 acres
required). Tree removal for the development is .34 acres of the total canopy leaving .52 acres
(25% canopy coverage). The difference is .2 acres and since required canopy is being removed,
the required canopy will be increased 1.2 times. Therefore, the canopy replacement required by
the applicant will be .24 acres or 9 trees. To ensure preservation of the remaining trees, a
conservation easement or tree removal limit should be placed on Lots 1, 2, 3, and 5. This will
protect these areas from house pad intrusion or further construction.
Staff is recommending approval of the proposed plat subject to the conditions of the staff report.
BACKGROUND
On March 23, 1992, the City Council granted preliminary and final plat approval for Oakwood
Estates to create one single - family lot and two outlots. One of the conditions of approval limited
the replatting of the outlots until such time as city sewer and water are available to the site. Utility
service for Phase I of the development will be provided under the Lake Riley Area Trunk Utility
Improvement Project.

WETLANDS I
The site contains an existing pond. The pond is listed in the City's Surface Water Management
Plan (SWMP) as a utilized wetland. According to city ordinances, there are no buffer or setback '
restrictions required with a utilized wetland. This area is shown on the National Wetland
Inventory. A question has been raised as to whether the utilized pond area was an expansion or
contraction of the wetland on the site. Staff recommends that the applicant hire a wetland expert
to delineate the edge of the wetland due to the marginal soil conditions in the area. Based on this
delineation, Lots 3, 4, and 5 may not be developable or a Wetland Alteration Permit may be
required. '
SURFACE WATER MANAGEMENT PLAN (SWMP)
'
The City has adopted a Surface Water Management Plan (SWMP) to serve as a tool to protect,
preserve, and enhance water resources. The plan identifies, from a regional perspective, the
stormwater quantity and quality improvements necessary to allow future development to take
'
place and minimize its impact to downstream water bodies. In general, the water quantity
portion of the plan uses a 100 -year design storm interval for ponding and a 10 -year design storm
interval for storm sewer piping. The water quality portion of the plan uses William Walker, Jr.'s
'
Pondnet model for predicting phosphorus concentrations in shallow water bodies. An ultimate
conditions model has been developed at each drainage area based on the projected future land
'
use, and therefore, different sets of improvements under full development were analyzed to
determine the optimum phosphorus reduction in priority water bodies. The development's storm
drainage system will be required to be constructed in accordance with the City's SWMP
'
requirements. The City's public improvement project, Lyman Boulevard Reconstruction/Lake
Riley Trunk Utility Improvement Project No. 93 -32B, will be providing storm sewers and water
quality treatment for the site. The development will be assessed in conjunction with these
'
improvements accordingly.
Storm Water Quality Fees
'
The SWMP has established a water quality connection charge for each new subdivision based on
Dedication be to the cost of land and volume needed for treatment of
'
land use. shall equal pond
the phosphorus load leaving the site. The requirement for cash in lieu of land and pond
construction shall be based upon a schedule in accordance with the prescribed land use zoning.
'
Values are calculated using the market values of land in the City of Chanhassen plus a value of
$2.50 per cubic yard for excavation of the pond. The proposed SWMP water quality charge of
$800 /acre for single family resident developments. Fees are based on a total developable land
'
area of 2.06 acres minus the existing pond of 0.24 acres. Therefore, the applicant is responsible
for $1,456.00 in water quality fees for both phases. Credits will be reviewed and applied to the
applicant's SWMP fees upon final plat consideration.

Storm Water Quantity Fees
The SWMP has established a connection charge for different land uses based on an average, city-
wide rate for the installation of water quantity systems. This cost includes land acquisition,
proposed SWMP culverts, and open channels and stormwater ponding areas for runoff storage.
Single family residential developments have a connection charge of $1,980 per developable acre.
The total net area of the property is 1.82 acres as discussed above. Therefore, the proposed
development would be responsible for a water quantity connection charge of $3,603 for both
phases. Credits will be reviewed and applied to the applicant's SWMP fees upon final plat
consideration. All SWMP connection charges will be due payable to the City at time of final plat
recording.
GRADING
' The site is generally flat with isolated groups of mature trees and a small pond. The proposal is
to develop the site in two phases. Phase I includes Lots 1 and 2, Block 1. Both phases propose
' lot grading to be completed individually at time of house construction. Staff generally concurs
with this idea on Lots 1, 2, and 5, however, Lots 3 and 4 should be graded in conjunction with
Phase Il utility and street construction. Staff recommends that individual detailed grading,
' drainage, tree preservation, and erosion control plans be submitted for Lots 1, 2, and 5, Block 1
for review and approval by City staff at time of building permit application.
The Carver County Soil Survey indicates Cordova and Webster silty clay loam soil present on all
lots. This type of soil is typically unsuitable for building construction. A soils engineer can
evaluate the house pads on the proposed lots and determine if soils corrections are required.
City ordinance requires the lowest floor elevation of dwellings adjacent to ponds, lakes, and
wetlands be at least two feet above the 100 -year flood elevation. This will restrict the type of
dwellings to split -entry type homes throughout the development. Staff also recommends that the
walkout or lowest opening of each dwelling be constructed a minimum of one foot above the
emergency overflow swale. The applicant's engineer and staff have discussed adjusting street
grades to provide for the emergency overflow swale between Lots 3 and 4, Block 1. A 20 -foot
wide drainage and utility easement will need to be dedicated on the final plat along the common
property line of Lots 3 and 4.
In conjunction with the City's Lyman Boulevard Reconstruction/Lake Riley Area Trunk Utility
Improvement Project No. 93 -32B, Quinn Road will be upgraded to a city standard urban road
with utilities to the north line of Phase I (Lot 2). This development will be responsible for street
and utility assessments as a result of these improvements. Installation of Phase lI improvements
will be the responsibility of the applicant.

DRAINAGE
The site drains in a southeasterly direction towards Lyman Boulevard. Ultimately, the site
'
drainage and existing pond overflow will need to be connected, via storm sewer pipe, to the
City's storm sewer system to be installed along Lyman Boulevard this year. The applicant has
'
the option to install this storm sewer system at their own expense under private contract or
'
petition the City to include this work as a part of the Lyman Boulevard Reconstruction Project
No. 93 -32B. If the applicant petitions the City, the applicant will be responsible for the entire
from
'
cost of constructing the outlet control and overflow storm sewer conveyance system the
'
pond to Lyman Boulevard. The cost of this system will be assessed on a per -lot basis over Lots 1
through 5, inclusive. Since these additional storm drainage improvements are beyond the scope
of work previously approved by the City Council, the applicant will be required to sign a
'
document waiving their rights to all procedural or substantive objections to the special
assessments associated with these storm drainage improvements including, but not limited to,
hearing requirements and any claim that the assessment exceeds the benefit to the development.
'
The applicant's engineer will need to submit to the City detailed storm drainage calculations for '
the storm drainage system as well as ponding calculations for 2 -, 10 -, and 100 -year storm events,
24 -hour duration for both pre- and post - development conditions for review and approval by City
staff. ,
UTIL ITIES
Utility service for Phase I of the development will be provided under the Lake Riley Area Trunk '
Utility Improvement Project. Phase II, however, will require that the applicant extend an
improved Quinn Road and utilities to the north line of Lot 5. In conjunction with Phase II '
construction, utilities should also be provided to serve the parcels east of Quinn Road. The
applicant will be reimbursed a proportionate cost of the sanitary sewer and water construction
costs when these parcels connect to the utilities. Staff will determine the reimbursement amount t
by distributing the cost of extending the sewer and water lines on a per -lot basis to the benefiting
parcels. In the future the City will collect a connection charge from these parcels at time of '
connection to the City utilities and reimburse the proportionate share to the applicant
accordingly.
Since the utilities in Phase II will be installed by the applicant and eventually owned and
'
maintained by the City upon completion, the street and utility improvements shall be constructed
in accordance with the City's latest edition of Standard Specifications and Detail Plates. The
'
developer will be required to enter into a development contract with the City and provide a
financial security to guarantee installation of the public improvements and conditions of final
plat approval for both phases. The final plat shall dedicate drainage and utility easements for all
'
Oakwood Estates
' February 21, 1996
Page 6
' utility lines which fall outside the street right -of -way. These easements shall be a minimum of
20 feet wide.
' Pursuant to city ordinance, existing homes within 150 feet of the city's sewer lines shall be
connected to the line within 12 months after the line becomes operational. There are two
dwellings on the east side of Quinn Road (520 and 530) that will be affected by this ordinance
' with the extension of utilities for Phase II of this development.
' STREETS
The site will be serviced off of Quinn Road which is an unimproved gravel street. This street
' also services other residents in the area; therefore, access must be maintained at all times during
construction. In conjunction with this development proposal, the City will be upgrading Quinn
Road to urban City standards to the north line of Phase I (Lot 2). The applicant will be
' responsible for the further upgrading of Quinn Road to the north line of Phase II (Lot 5) in
conjunction with the second phase of development. A temporary turnaround will be required at
the end of Quinn Road upon construction of Phase II. A condition will be placed in the
' development contract that Quinn Road shall be extended in the future. A previous subdivision of
this property dedicated the necessary 60- foot -wide right -of -way for Quinn Road. No additional
right -of -way is required with this subdivision proposal.
' Quinn Road shall be constructed in accordance with the City's latest edition of Standard
Specifications and Detail Plates. Detailed construction plans and specifications for the street and
utility improvements will be required for City staff review and formal approval by the City
Council in conjunction with final plat approval for Phase Il.
EROSION CONTROL
Erosion control measures and site restoration shall be developed and in accordance with the
City's Best Management Practice Handbook (BMPH). The preliminary grading plan has
incorporated Type I erosion control around the perimeter of the pond and construction limits
adjacent to Quinn Road. A rock construction entrance shall be employed and maintained at all
access points until the street has been paved with a bituminous surface.
LANDSCAPING/TREE PRESERVATION
The Oakwood Estates development site consists of an extensive stand of mature oak and maple
' trees with cleared openings. Wooded areas exist on four of the lots for a total site coverage of
42 percent (0.86 acres). Tree removal is necessary on Lots 1 and 5 where the wooded area is
concentrated towards the front of the lots. Lots 2 and 3 will be able to avoid any tree removals
Oakwood Estates '
February 21, 1996 '
Page 7
since all trees are at the rear of the lot except four that will be removed for the road '
improvements, driveways, and house pads.
The applicant is required to have a 35% canopy coverage remaining after construction (.72 acres ,
required). Tree removal for the development is .34 acres of the total canopy leaving .52 acres
remaining ( 25% canopy coverage). The difference is .2 acres and since required canopy is being
removed the required replacement canopy will be increased 1.2 times. Therefore, the canopy ,
replacement required by the applicant will be .24 acres or 10 trees.
To ensure preservation of the remaining trees, a conservation easement or tree removal limit '
should be placed on Lots 1, 2, 3, and 5. This will protect these areas from house pad intrusion or
further construction.

MEMORANDUM
' TO: Bob Generous, Planner II
FROM: Steve A. Kirchman, Building Official
DATE: February 5, 1996
' SUBJECT: 92 -3 SUB (First Addition to Oakwood Estates, Eugene Quinn)
Background:
' I was asked to review the plans stamped "CITY ` OF CHANHASSEN, RECEIVED, DEC 28 1995,
CHANHASSEN PLANNING DEPT." for the above referenced project. Below are an analysis and
' reconunendations from the Inspections Division for the proposed project.
Analysis:
Building Pads. Locations of proposed dwelling pads and the type of dwelling is necessary to enable the Inspections
Division and Engineering Department to perform a satisfactory plan review of the structure at the time of building
permit issuance. For the same reason, proposed lowest level floor elevations as well as garage floor elevations and
entry level elevations are required to be indicated on the proposed pad location. Standard designations (FLO or
RLO, R, SE, SEWO, TU, WO) must be shown for proposed dwelling types. These standard designations lessen the
chance for errors during the plan review process. The memo explaining these designations is enclosed.
' The Carver County Soil Survey indicates Cordova and Webster silty clay loam soil present on all lots. This type of
soil is typically unsuitable for building construction. A soils engineer can evaluate the house pads on the proposed
lots and determine if soils corrections are required.
' Recommendations:
' The following conditions should be added to the conditions of approval.
1. Revise the preliminary grading plan to show the location of proposed dwelling pads, using standard
' designations and the lowest level floor and garage floor elevations. This should be done prior to final plat
approval.
2. Submit an evaluation of the soils at the proposed house pads. This should be done prior to issuance of any
building permits.

SUBJ: Dwelling Type Designation
We have been requesting on site plan reviews that the developer designate the type of
dwelling that is acceptable on each proposed lot in a new development. I thought perhaps
it might be helpful to staff to explain and diagram these designations and the reasoning
behind the requirements.
FLO or RLO Designates Front Lookout or Rear Lookout This includes dwellings with me basement floor level
approximately 8' below grade at its deepest with the surrounding grade sloping down to approximately 4'
above the basement floor level.
R Designates Rambler. This includes dwellings with the basement floor level approximately 8' below grade
with the surrounding grade approximately level. This would include two story's and many 4 level dwellings.
SE Designates Split Entry. This includes dwellings with the basement floor level approximately 4' below grade
with the surrounding grade approximately level.
SEWO Designates Split Entry Walk Out This includes dwellings with the basement floor level approximately 4'
below grade at its deepest with the surrounding grade sloping down to lowest floor level.
TU Designates Tuck Under. This includes dwellings with the basement floor level approximately 8' below
grade at its deepest with the surrounding grade sloping down to the lowest floor level in the front of the
dwelling.
WO Designates Walk Out This includes dwellings with the basement floor level approximately 8' below grade
at its deepest with the surrounding grade sloping down to the lowest floor level in the rear of the dwelling.

RLO

Inspections staff uses these designations when reviewing plans which are then passed to the
engineering staff for further review. Approved grading plans are compared to proposed building
plans to insure compliance to approved conditions. The same designation must be used on all
documents in order to avoid confusion and incorrect plan reviews.

Mancino: Any questions from commissioners at this time?
Meyer: I do have one. Bob, number 15 of, as part of your recommendation. Can you
'
explain why we need the temporary turn around? That goes through doesn't it?
Generous: No, it would dead end at the end of this subdivision and it would be an
'
emergency vehicle turn around. The snowplow turn around. From this point to the north it's
a private drive and until those properties develop, there would be no need to upgrade that
roadway.

Planning Commission Meeting - February 21, 1996
Meyer: So that's the reason for that turn around?
Generous: Right.
Mancino: Excuse me. So it would be a turn around that also had access or curb cuts for the
private drive to continue and as that, that goes east right now.
Hempel: Correct.
Mancino: And that is not going to be upgraded at all. It can stay as it is as a private drive,
etc.
Generous: Until those properties would come in for development.
Mancino: Okay, thank you. Any other questions at this time? Okay. Would the applicant
like to come up and address the Planning Commission at this time?
Gene Quinn: My name is Gene Quinn. We now live in Rapid City, South Dakota but we
lived here for about 14 years... As far as comments, as far as phase 2, we don't anticipate
doing anything with that until somebody further north wants to develop and pushes the road.
So as far as the turn around...
Mancino: Okay. Any other questions that you had on the conditions of the staff report?
Gene Quinn: I don't think so. I'm...
Mancino: Any questions for the applicant from the commissioners? Thank you.
Gene Quinn: Thank you.
Mancino: Appreciate your comments. May I have a motion to open this for a public hearing
please.

Planning Commission Meeting - February 21, 1996
Russell Frederick: I'm Russell Frederick. I live at 540 Lyman Boulevard and with this ,
development I see no problem with Lots 1, 2 and 5. 3 and 4 1 think are not suitable ground
to build on, number one. And number two, I think it's not considering the rest of the
neighborhood. It's not blending with the rest of the neighborhood. This is my only real '
objection is those two points. Other than that, three houses on that 2 acres I think blends
with the neighborhood real good and I don't see a problem.
Mancino: We do have a city ordinance which does allow the landowner to subdivide and '
make it denser than the 3 lots. So that is in our city code. Our city ordinance that legally the
applicant can. '
Russell Frederick: Is there also ... 5 development units?
Mancino: Yes. '
Russell Frederick: For the sewer going in. Meaning the trunk line. I
Mancino: Is that correct Dave?
Hempel: It would be in the future as the parcel subdivides. They would be responsible for
hook -up and connection charges.
Russell Frederick: But not the trunk line? '
Hempel: That would include the trunk line. That's a hook -up charge. t
Russell Frederick: Okay.
Mancino: An other questions? Anyone else wishing ? '
Any q y e shmg to address the Planning Commission.
Tom Uppman: I'm Tom Uppman. I live at 532 Lyman Boulevard, just adjacent to this '
property and I guess I don't have a problem with developing in the city. It's their property.
they can do what they choose. I was privileged to have a copy of the drawings that spelled
out in much detail the discussion of the trunk watermain, the sewer, storm sewer and that and
one of the notations on the drawing state that this will be supplied by others. I'm not a
developer but I've purchased property from a developer before and all of those things were in '
and available to me when I tried to buy a lot and I just paid the hook -up charge for my house
to the street. Being a neighbor there, I'm on a well and septic right now. I would be very
strongly opposed to subsidizing any development in there for water and sewer. I agree with '
Mr. Frederick that there are two lots, they're Lots 3 and 4 that really need to be looked at and
11
Planning Commission -
g ssion Meeting February 21, 1996
' studied. I don't believe that they're sound property to put a house on ... I maintained and I
mowed that area and it's constantly wet all the time.
' Mancino: So you're talking about the soils?
Tom Uppman: I'm afraid that someone will put a house in there that will sink out of sight.
' Mancino: Well one of the conditions of our report is that the soils do have to be looked at
and who was it, I don't know what department comes and checks the soils.
Hempel: The building department's responsibility. They require a soils report from a
professional soils engineer. Soils have to be, if they're poor soils, they have to be replaced
' with a granular back fill and capable of supporting.
Mancino: So that means they're taking out, the poor soils are taken out and new soils are put
' in if they don't meet the test. The soils test.
Hempel: That's right.
' Mancino: Okay.
' Tom Uppman: Another notation I noticed on the drawings for the pond there. They had a
catch basin that would drain into the storm sewer, the city storm sewer. And I'm new in that
area. I've only been there a couple years but it's my understanding that that pond was
considered wetlands and there was drainage that drained into wetlands. I don't think a
wetlands should... city sewer system.
Mancino: Dave, do you want to describe how that?
' Hempel: Certainly. We did review the previous wetland history there, and according to the
National Wetlands Inventory Map there was a small wetland on the property some time ago.
It's our understanding that the applicant has excavated it to increase the size of it over the
years. I also understand that there is an agricultural drain the that does drain that
periodically. It's my understanding from the property owner that there's water in it pretty
much year round except during the summer drought. The water will dry down. What's
proposed with this development is a storm sewer system that will maintain a water level
hopefully throughout the year. To maintain the water level to create vegetation and habitat
and essentially restore that wetland. Hopefully the wetland will act as a water quality pond as
well as a water quantity pond to maintain flood control on it and so forth. The pond does
require an outlet structure because of the agricultural tile that's in there right now. It
F
4
Planning Commission Meeting - February 21, 1996
meanders through many properties downstream. Typically those do get abandoned as ,
development occurs. This wetland, storm pond will be then tied into the city's overall storm
sewer system in Lyman Boulevard and will re- connect.
Mancino: Will it go to a regional pond? '
Hempel: It will go down to the wetland that's down by Lake Riley there on the north side of
Lyman where it supposedly goes right now through a drain tile.
Tom Uppman: There's no drainage tile. I
Hempel: There is some drain tiles underneath.
Tom Uppman: There might be drain tile under it but it doesn't drain. Like I say, I maintain
that and last summer during the rain season, water was all the way up to Quinn Road. That
whole area was swamp. You couldn't even drive a lawnmower there. The drainage is not I
working.
Hempel: That's one of the reasons why the storm sewer system will be put in to maintain '
that level so you don't have that flooding problem.
Mancino: And the soils will be looked at too, so. '
Tom Uppman: I guess, you know the utility aspect of it ... subsidize so.
Mancino: I understand that. Dave. Are those people that live on the east side of Quinn
Road, when this is developed, do they, they are required to hook up to city sewer when it is
available?
Hempel: With Phase II it would be required for the sanitary sewer and water lines be '
extended adjacent to those properties and the street upgraded. The city ordinance does
require those properties that are adjacent to a sewer line be connected up within 12 months
after a system becomes operational. They do not have to hook up to city water unless their
well fails.
Mancino: Okay. And they can at any time get a cost estimate from the city, how much it I
costs to hook up to the city sewer?
Hempel: Certainly. We can get some figures. I

Planning Commission Meeting - February 21, 1996
Mancino: Okay, thank you.
Russell Frederick: Can I ask one more question?
Mancino: Certainly.
Russell Frederick: This wetland, I thought I heard something stated that it was ... enlarged
where the pond is. The reason this bothers me is this wetland is almost to the roadway. The
platted roadway coming in and that is filled with anywhere from IS inches to probably 2,
maybe 2 1/2 feet of fill. This is why I mentioned before that Lots 3 and 4 are not suitable
building ground. They would have to be excavated. I don't know how deep. I never did...
but there's a lot of muck in there. So that is not suitable building ground... and considerable
fill before you dare put a house in.
Mancino: Well the city will investigate.
Hempel: Madam Chair. One of the conditions of approval tonight is the applicant shall hire
a wetland expert to delineate the edge of the wetland as a part of this project as well, so we'll
know more from that investigation.
Mancino: Okay, thank you.
Aanenson: Maybe I can just make a little more clarification on that. Again we're just
approving the first two lots. We agree that those other lots may be marginal and that's why
we spelled out that there is an additional condition that they do investigate those. We want to
make sure before we plat those lots that they are suitable, have a suitable building site so
again we're just approving the first two lots and 3, 4, and 5 are for a future date. We had the
concerns, the same concerns that have been addressed tonight about the soils and the
wetlands.
Mancino: But we are approving the preliminary plat with those conditions?
Aanenson: Correct.
Mancino: Okay, thank you.
Sherry Benson: My name is Sherry Benson. I live at 530 Lyman Boulevard. I have
concerns about the size of the lots. First of all they're not even half the size ... half the size of
one of the smallest lots which is ... area so that does take off the balance then—it would wreck
the balance... I also have concerns about the price of the homes that will be placed in this
rel
Planning Commission Meeting - February 21, 1996
area ... third of an acre. I don't understand how you can put very large houses in there. Is I
there a...value of the homes surrounding that area. That's about it.
Mancino: Okay, thank you. Anyone else? Seeing none, may I have a motion to close the
public hearing?
Fwmakes moved, Meyei• seconded to close the public hewing. The public healing was I
closed.
Mancino: Comments from commissioners. Questions or comments that you would like to
,
make on the report on the conditions. Craig.
Peterson: I think it's pretty well straight forward as far as the development goes. I really
don't have anything to offer other than the fact that I wish they were all this easy.
Mancino: Bob. I mean Mike, sorry.
'
Meyer: Nothing.
Mancino: Bob.
Skubic: I don't have any comments other than it appears that the soil concern is well covered
with the recommendations that the staff has made...
Mancino: Don.
Mehl: I also think it's pretty simple and straight forward, you know subject to the conditions '
and so on. I assume that the lot sizes are within the guide lines for the area. But other than
that, I really don't have anything additional to say.
Mancino: Thank you. Jeff.
Farmakes: My only comment on this is, I'll touch on briefly, is to elaborate what you
mentioned for the people who have questions in regards to minimum lot size. The city
defines what the minimum lot size is for the zone and there may be adjacent properties who
choose to build fewer dwellings on more land. That's their prerogative but that still does not
change the minimum zone that minimum lot size is. And so you're going to have, as the city
grows, you're going to have some large areas, larger lots I think someone mentioned an
adjacent lot was 3/4 of an acre. There are very few homes now being built on an acre or 3/4 '
Planning Commission Meeting - February 21, 1996
of an acre and the average price of the home in Chanhassen, which I think is like up to
$140,000.00 some.
Mancino: $160,000.00.
Farmakes: Is it $160,000.00 now? As it keeps continuing to go up and up and up you're
going to see the demand for smaller and smaller minimum lot sizes. Chanhassen actually has
one of the larger minimum lot sizes in the metro area. And anywhere, that just brings you up
to date on that. It might be helpful for some of the people who are upset about this. Other
' than that I have no further comments.
Mancino: Okay, thank you. I have a couple, just a couple questions. I think it was Dave in
' your comments about dwelling type you had put down in the report that a split entry home
would be the only dwelling type that you felt would work on this, in these lots. I mean I
know we haven't had for 3, 4 and 5, we haven't had the soils testing done. However, I didn't
' see that in the conditions of approval and I also saw on this preliminary plat that most of the
houses, the dwelling types that I see are walkouts. So is that something that should be a
condition?
Hempel: I believe condition number 2.
Mancino: Does that say it?
Hempel: It says revise the grading plan to show location of the lowest floor, garage floor
elevation and the type of dwelling. That was a condition that we placed on the applicant to
show on the grading development plan, what those elevations of the homes are and we've
indicated to him, based on the 100 year flood elevation of the pond, that those homes will
most likely be a split entry type home, or even a slab on grade home. You will not have a
full basement because of the water level.
t Mancino: Because of the water level, okay. I just wanted to make sure that the applicant
was aware of that and it was part of the conditions. Bob, can you tell me a little bit about
Lyman Boulevard. Is that a collector? Is that what we would, is it a collector?
Aanenson: To my knowledge it is.
' Mancino: Do we need to do some landscaping or some sort of berming when we have homes
that face onto a collector, according to our city code?
' Generous: Based on ordinance, yes. There should be landscaping.
t
E✓'
Planning Commission Meeting - February 21, 1996
Mancino: Okay. Is there any in this plan for buffering of those homes on the collector?
Generous: Just the requirement on Lot 2 that they provide 4 trees. It didn't go beyond that.
And on Lot 1, it's mostly wooded so if they stick to a building area, they wouldn't be able to
save the trees.
Mancino: Are they going to be able to save most of those very nice older trees on Lot 1? I
Generous: They should be. We've required an easement over the rear and the western
portion but not on the front. I
Mancino: Okay. When the final landscaping plan is developed, I'd like to make sure that we
do have some sort of buffering there on the collector per our city ordinance. Did the Park ,
and Rec Commission get a chance to look at that, and I didn't see anything about fees.
Generous: I'm sorry. I must have, or Todd or I either missed it. Yes, they did review it. ,
They're requiring the fees instead of the dedication of land and it's based on city ordinance in
effect when they final plat.
Mancino: Okay. So that we do need to add a condition that full ark and trail fees shall be '
Y p
paid at the time of building permit approval in the amount in force at the time of the building ,
permit application. Okay. Those are all my comments and questions. Is there a motion?
Meyer: I'll make a motion. I'll make a motion that the Planning Commission recommends '
that the City Council approve the preliminary plat of Oakwood Estates First Addition,
prepared by William R. Engelhardt Associates, Inc., dated December 28, 1995 for five lots
subject to the following conditions 1 through 20 with an additional of number 21. Review '
the plat to ensure landscaping is up to the city ordinance, and that'd be.
Mancino: Along the collector road. I
Meyer: Along the collector road. And I'll let you go ahead with 22.
Mancino: Okay. And 22 says, full park and trail fees shall be paid at the time of building
permit approval in the amount in force at the time of building application. Is there a second
to the motion?
Mehl: I'll make the second.
Mancino: Any discussion? '
