PLANNING COMMISSION UPDATE
On August 24, 1996, the Planning Commission held a public hearing to consider the subdivision
and variance request. The Commission unanimously voted to approve the subdivision and variance
based on the findings presented in the staff report.
Eight neighbors were in attendance and spoke in opposition to the proposed development. The
neighbors were primarily concerned with the size of the lot (14,000 square feet), and the impacts
that a smaller lot would have on the neighborhood. Neighbors were also concerned that additional
properties would be subdivided if this one is approved.
Staff maintains that few, if any, lots have subdivision potential on Western Drive. Other lots are
either smaller in size or width, or have existing homes located in a manner which would prohibit
further subdivision. In addition, the subject property is unique in that it has frontage on two public
streets. Other properties in this area have only one street frontage. The proposed subdivision is
consistent with the average lot size for Carver Beach. Numerous lots in Carver Beach are less than
15,000 square feet in size.
Staff recommends approval of the subdivision with the ten (10) conditions contained in the
recommendation section of the staff report.
' PROPOSAL/SUMMARY
The applicant is requesting subdivision approval to subdivide a 0.64 acre parcel into two lots. A
preliminary and final plat is not required because none of the existing platted lots will be further
subdivided. All of the existing fourteen lots are currently recorded under a single property
identification number (PID) and are held under common ownership. The applicant is requesting
' approval to create a second buildable lot by creating an additional lot of record. Subdivision
approval is required to separate existing substandard lots of record which have been held under
common ownership prior to the adoption of the City's Subdivision Ordinance. The review of the
' subdivision request is the same as a preliminary plat with the only difference being in the way the
properties are recorded.
Both lots will require lot area and depth variances. The parcels will be 14,000 square feet in size
with 140 feet of street frontage, and 100 feet in lot depth. Minimum lot requirements in the RSF
Zoning District are 15,000 square feet in size, 125 feet in lot depth, with 90 feet of street frontage.
' The subject property is a double fronting lot with frontage on Western Drive and Hiawatha Drive.
Access to the newly created parcel will be via Western Drive. No other parcel located between
' Western Drive and Hiawatha Drive has frontage on two improved streets. Other lots have either
one frontage or are double fronted with one frontage on an unimproved street. This unique
situation will allow a second home to be constructed without disrupting the character of the
Schmieg Subdivision
August 21, 1996
Page 3
neighborhood. All required setbacks will be adhered to. The newly created parcel will create a
good transition between the smaller lots to the east and the larger lots to the west.
The City's Comprehensive plan shows Carver Beach and the surrounding areas guided for low
density residential. Low density residential consists of single-family residential development at a
density of 1.2 to 4.0 units per acre. The proposed subdivision will create a density of 3.12 units per
acre. The proposed development is consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan and the
neighborhood in which it is located.
The property will easily accommodate a second home without removing a significant amount of
vegetation or negatively impacting adjacent residences. Existing trees will provide a good buffer
between existing residences and the proposed home. To ensure that the trees are preserved, staff
recommends that a tree conservation easement be granted over Lot 805 (the westerly 20 feet of
parcel B), and that tree removal limits be set at a distance of 20 feet from the proposed building
pad.
Staff recommends approval of the subdivision and variances subject to the findings presented in the
staff report.
BACKGROUND
Carver Beach was platted in 1927 and consists of over 3,200 individual lots measuring
approximately 20 x 100 feet in size. Over the years, lots have been assembled to create buildable
lots. Lot sizes range from approximately 6,000 square feet to over 40,000 square feet. Within 500
feet of the subject property, there are ten (10) properties which are less than 14,000 square feet in
size. Most of these properties are located to the east of the proposed development. The majority of
the lots to the west of the subject property are over the 15,000 square foot minimum. Several of
these lots may also have future subdivision potential. However, most of these lots are smaller or
have homes situated in such a manner as to make further subdivision difficult.
The subject property is unique as it is the only lot located between Western Drive and Hiawatha
which has frontage on two improved streets. Hiawatha is unimproved to the west of the subject
property. No other lot has frontage on two improved streets. Other lots have either one frontage or
have double frontage, with one frontage on an unimproved street.
Section 20-73 of the City Code states that, "no variance shall be required to construct a detached
single-family dwelling on a nonconforming lot provided that it fronts on a public street or approved
private street and provided that the width and area measurements are at least seventy-five (75)
percent of the minimum requirements of this chapter." Because the lots which make up the current
property have been held under common ownership, this provision does not apply. However, it is
worth noting because the back of this lot would have been buildable without subdivision approval
r

and variances if it would have remained as a separate lot of record. Parcel B meets the seventy-five
' (75) percent requirement of this chapter.
STREETS/ACCESS
The property will be accessed from Western Drive which is an existing rural street section.
' The proposed drive is acceptable at its proposed location.
SURFACE WATER MANAGEMENT PLAN (SWMP)
IOVERVIEW
' The City has adopted a Surface Water Management Plan (SWMP) that serves 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 will be required to be
constructed in accordance with the City's SWMP requirements.
Water Quality Fees - The SWMP has established a water quality connection charge for each new
subdivision based on land use. Dedication shall be equal to the cost of land and pond volume
needed for treatment of the phosphorus load leaving the site. The requirement for cash in lieu of
1 land and pond construction shall be based upon a schedule in accordance with the prescribed land
use zoning. Values are calculated using 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 for single family resident developments is $800 per acre.
Water Quantity Fees The SWMP has established a connection charge for the 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, open channels and storm water ponding areas for runoff
storage. Single family residential developments have a connection charge of $1,980 per
' developable acre.
Water Quality Fee
The SWMP does not propose this site to provide on -site stormwater treatment. SWMP fees are
based on a total developable land area of 0.32 acres. Therefore, the applicant is required to pay
$256 in water quality fees.
Schmieg Subdivision
August 21, 1996
Page 5
Water Quantity Fee
The total net area of the property is 0.32 acres as discussed above. Therefore, the proposed
development would then be responsible for a water quantity connection charge of $634. These
SWMP fees will be due payable to the City at time of final plat recording.
LANDSCAPING/TREE PRESERVATION
The property contains a mix of deciduous and coniferous trees throughout the property. The future
house pad on Parcel B is situated in a manner which should allow for the majority of the trees to be
saved. To ensure adequate tree protection, staff is recommending that a tree preservation easement
be provided over Lot 805 (the westerly 20 feet of Parcel B), and that tree removal limits be set at a
distance of 20 feet surrounding the proposed house pad. Other trees are located within required
setback areas, and therefore should not be impacted by construction activity. Tree protection
fencing will be required during construction to identify tree preservation areas. Several trees will
need to be removed or relocated to accommodate the future home, utilities, and driveway.
GRADING
Only minor grading work in the area of the building pad is proposed. The existing lot has several
trees of different variety of which it appears at least three will need to be removed to
accommodate the new drive. The proposed location of Type 1 erosion control silt fence shall be
shown on the detailed survey or grading plan for approval.
DRAINAGE
Currently, the property sheet drains north into the street (Western Road) and southwest towards
Hiawatha Drive. Any increase in runoff due to increased impervious surfaces from driveway and
roof surface areas will be negligible, Due to the limited amount of grading work proposed, the
overall neighborhood drainage pattern will be maintained as it exists today.
UTILITIES
The proposed lot subdivision is located within the Municipal Urban Service Area (MUSA).
Water and sanitary services were not installed to this lot at the time of utility construction.
Therefore, both water and sewer services will need to be extended to the property line by the
City. The applicant will be responsible for sewer and water hookup fees plus the cost of
extending the services to the property line. An escrow account in the amount of $3,500 shall be
supplied to the City to guarantee payment for extending the services and repairing the street.
Currently, the sewer and water hookup fees are $1,115 and $1,460 respectively.

FINDINGS
' 1. The proposed subdivision is consistent with the zoning ordinance;
' Finding: Lot area and depth variances are required on both proposed lots. Both lots
will have direct access onto an improved public street. The new lot can easily
accommodate a single family home while maintaining required setbacks and
tpreserving the natural vegetation. Staff has recommended conditions to mitigate
any negative impacts.
' 2. The proposed subdivision is consistent with all applicable city, county and regional plans
including but not limited to the city's comprehensive plan;
' Finding: The proposed subdivision is consistent with applicable plans. The City's
Comprehensive plan has the property guided for low density residential (1.2 - 4.0
' units/acre). The proposed subdivision is at a density of 3.12 units per acre
3. The physical characteristics of the site, including but not limited to topography, soils,
' vegetation, susceptibility to erosion and siltation, susceptibility to flooding, and storm water
drainage are suitable for the proposed development;
' Finding: The proposed site is suitable for development subject to the conditions
specified in this report.
' 4. The proposed subdivision makes adequate provision for water supply, storm drainage,
sewage disposal, streets, erosion control and all other improvements required by this
chapter;
' Finding: The proposed subdivision is served by adequate urban infrastructure.
' 5. The proposed subdivision will not cause environmental damage;
Finding: The proposed subdivision will not cause environmental damage subject to
conditions if approved.
6. The proposed subdivision will not conflict with easements of record.
' Findin : The proposed subdivision will not conflict with existing easements, but
rather will expand and provide all necessary easements.
' 7. The proposed subdivision is not premature. A subdivision is premature if any of the
following exists:
Schmieg Subdivision
August 21, 1996
Page 7
a. Lack of adequate storm water drainage.
b. Lack of adequate roads.
C. Lack of adequate sanitary sewer systems.
d. Lack of adequate off -site public improvements or support systems.
Finding; The proposed subdivision is provided with adequate urban infrastructure.
VARIANCE FINDINGS
The city council may grant a variance from the regulations contained in this chapter as part of the
plat approval process following a finding that all of the following conditions exist:
1. The hardship is not a mere inconvenience;
2. The hardship is caused by the particular physical surroundings, shape or topographical
conditions of the land;
3. The condition or conditions upon which the request is based are unique and not generally
applicable to other property;
4. The granting of a variance will not be substantially detrimental to the public welfare and is in
accord with the purpose and intent of this chapter, the zoning ordinance and comprehensive
plan.
Findings: A unique situation exists with the subject property having frontage on two
public streets. Parcel B will easily accommodate a future single family home while
maintaining applicable setbacks and preserving the existing vegetation. The granting of the
variances will not be substantially detrimental to the public welfare, and is consistent with
the purpose and intent of the subdivision ordinance, zoning ordinance, and the city's
comprehensive plan.

Re: Subdivision of 900 Hiawatha Drive
Dear City Council Members:
RECEIVED �
AUG 2 $ RECD
CITY OF CHANHASSEN I
I am a concerned resident living directly across from 900 Hiawatha Drive. There are many
others beside myself who have similar concerns. You have one person, Mr. Schmieg, asking for
a variance but many more asking you to revoke it. Mr. Schmieg does not live there nor does he
have any personal time and energy invested in it, as we neighbors do. I feel he is just looking
for another financial investment for his own personal gain. He doesn't care about the residents
living in the area and he hopes you won't either.
A $130,000 house placed on a small lot with no opportunity for improvement (because of the
lot size) will only harm our area "not enhance it" as Mr. Schmieg would like you to believe.
The Planning Commission Members have labeled the lot as "vacant and unkempt". Since Ann
Myskevitz moved, former resident, the appearance has deteriorated. Prior to that, the lot was
mowed and used for gardening and a play area for children. It is not an eyesore for anyone.
I attended the Public Hearing along with 7 other residents from the Western Drive Street. We,
and others, feel allowing the lot to be subdivided for another home would be a disservice to our
community. Please put yourself in our shoes. If this house was to be placed next to your home,
with the same circumstances, would you allow it? I hope this makes it more clear for you.
I am asking you to abide by the City Ordinance and revoke the subdivision. We are still a
community small enough to care about each other and know our neighbors near and faro Please
promote that caring and responsible attitude and do what's best for several people not just one
or two.

Re: Subdivision of Lots 805 - 811 and 853 - 859, Carver Beach
Dear Planning Commission and City Council:
As a Realtor I am aware how important neighborhood conformity is. Even though
the proposed site is less than the current 15,000 sq. Ft. minimum, it is larger than many
lots in this area. The property next door is only 12,000 sq. Ft., as are several others.
The existing house was built in 1958 on the southerly one half of the parcel with
the intention of one day building another house on the northerly one half. Currently there
is a fence dividing the lot into two, making it very obvious that a vacant lot exists for a
future building site.
The proposed house will be very attractive in appearance and constructed with a
maintenance free exterior so it will remain attractive for years to come. The site is
currently overgrown and does not appear well groomed. By building a new home on this
site it would improve the general appearance of the site improving the neighborhood.
The City of Chanhassen is in need of affordable housing that this would provide.
New construction at $130,000 is almost unheard of in Chanhassen, yet this is realistic and
it would conform to the existing neighborhood. I think this will be a positive addition to
the City and neighborhood as well.
While trying to sell the property (as is), I have received as many calls inquiring on
the vacant lot as for the existing house. This indicates to me that the need for the site and
the natural split is obvious. This site happens to be the last parcel with a road and utilities
on either side for entering the property, (Hiawatha Dr & Western Dr), unlike those to the
West, again making this a natural split.
I realize neighbors are always concerned about changes to their neighborhood. I
believe very strongly that this will be a positive change to the neighborhood and after it's
completed everyone will be pleased with the end result.
The house will be placed on the lot so only two trees need to be taken. After
trimming the existing trees and cleaning up the lot it will be a pleasing addition to the
neighborhood.
The existing house is in need of some repair that will also be done after the new
house is complete to again improve the overall picture. I am looking forward to working
with the City of Chanhassen on this project and to provide someone with a new home in
this attractive Chanhassen neighborhood.
Sincerely,
Steve Schmieg
& Anne Myskevitz Ward

Dear Ms. (Cate Aanensone
1 understand the property on 900 Hiawatha has been identified as a future site for a new home
after a subdivision is made. I am a home owner located directly across from that site. When the
Planning Commission sign was posted on the lot, I called the office for details. I was informed of
the situation involving the home owner and Realtor with hopes of getting a variance from the
Planning Commission and City Council. I also understand the Realtor is planning to rent the new
home he would like to build on the future Western Drive location.
This causes great concern for me. I just purchased my home in April on Western Drive and have
found my move very rewarding. I chose this location because of the quiet, established,
upstanding community. If we have renters in this location, I believe our property value may go
down over time because of poor upkeep. You must take in consideration the level of care and
concern from renters vs. owners.
I am aware the property is lacking 1000 feet or more in order to be within city code for
building, therefore asking for a variance. It is a very small lot to place a home comfortably on.
When I purchased my home, I was attracted to all the large lots surrounding my home, including
the wooded lot straight across the road. My view is beautiful! If a variance is granted, what
will happen to future homes which may be sold in this location?
When I called for this information, I was informed of a letter to be sent to me and all residents
surrounding the property within 500 feet. I yet to see this letter and truly hope no decisions
have been made. The surrounding neighbors also have the same concerns and are waiting to hear
for more information.
I sincerely hope this is not a matter only concerning money. It should involve the concerns of
the surrounding property owners first and foremost. Please call or write with further
information as soon as possible. Thank you for your time.
Sincerely,

SUBJ: Review of Preliminary Plat - Lots 805-811 and Lots 853-859, Carver Beach
Located at 900 Hiawatha Drive
Upon review of the site survey documents prepared July 15, 1996 by Allan R. Hastings, we offer
the following comments and recommendations:
WETLANDS
The applicant has indicated on the plan sheet that no wetlands exist on this site. The City's Surface
Water Management Plan Wetland Inventory and a site visit by City staff verify this finding.
SURFACE WATER MANAGEMENT PLAN (SWMP)
OVERVIEW
The City has adopted a Surface Water Management Plan (SWMP) that serves 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

Water Quality Fees - The SWMP has established a water quality connection charge for each new
subdivision based on land use. Dedication shall be equal to the cost of land and pond volume
needed for treatment of 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 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 for single family resident developments is $800 per acre.
Water Quanti Fees The SWMP has established a connection charge for the 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, open channels and storm water ponding areas for runoff
storage. Single family residential developments have a connection charge of $1,980 per
developable acre.
Water Quality Fee
The SWMP does not propose this site to provide on -site stormwater treatment. SWMP fees are
based on a total developable land area of 0.32 acres. Therefore, the applicant is required to pay
$256 in water quality fees.
Water Quantity Fee
The total net area of the property is 0.32 acres as discussed above. Therefore, the proposed
development would then be responsible for a water quantity connection charge of $ 634. These
SWMP fees will be due payable to the City at time of final plat recording.
GRADING
Only minor grading work in the area of the building pad is proposed. The existing lot has several
trees of different variety of which it appears at least three will need to be removed to
accommodate the new drive. The proposed location of Type 1 erosion control silt fence shall be
shown on the detailed survey or grading plan for approval.
IDRAINAGE
Currently the property sheet drains north into the street (Western Road) and southwest towards
Hiawatha road. Any increase in runoff due to increased impervious surfaces from driveway and
roof surface areas will be negligible. Due to the limited amount of grading work proposed, the
overall neighborhood drainage pattern will be maintained as it exists today.
IUTILITIES
The proposed lot subdivision is located within the Municipal Urban Service Area (MUSA).
John Rask

Water and sanitary services were not installed to this lot at the time of utility construction.
Therefore, both water and sewer services will need to be extended to the property line by the
City. The applicant will be responsible for sewer and water hookup fees plus the cost of
extending the services to the property line. An escrow account in the amount of $3,500 shall be
supplied to the City to guarantee payment for extending the services and repairing the street.
Currently, the sewer and water hookup fees are $1,115 and $1,460 respectively.
STREETS
The property will be accessed from Western Road which is an existing rural street section.
The proposed drive is acceptable as it does not exceed the maximum 10% grade requirement.
RECOMMENDED CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL
1. The applicant and/or contractor shall notify the City upon encountering any existing drain
tile on the site. The City will determine whether or not the drain tile can be abandoned or
relocated.
2. The applicant will be required to clean the streets of any dirt and mud accumulated from
vehicles tracking. Erosion control measures shall be in place and maintained at all times
until the site has been fully restored, re -vegetated, and removal is authorized by the City.
3. All areas disturbed as a result of construction activities shall be immediately restored with
disc -mulched seed, wood fiber blanket, or sod within two weeks of completion of grading
in accordance with the City's Best Management Practices Handbook.
4. The applicant is responsible for water quality fees of $256 and water quantity connection
charges of $ 634 as per the City's SWMP plan.
