This request is for final rezoning from RSF, l�.siclential Single Family to PUD, Planned Unit
Development, final plat approval, and site plan approval request to create a mixed use
(mixed density residential and future neighborhood related commercial) development. The
entire site is being final platted with the exception of the commercial portion. There has been
some revisions made to the plans since the preliminary plan approval. These changes include
the following:
MEMORANDUM
Mission Hills
October 4, 1994
Page 2
' The Park and Recreation Commission met on June 28, 1994, and recommended the
following conditions:
a. The tot park facility shall include typical park amenities such as landscaped ass
P grassy
areas, picnic tables, park benches, play apparatus and basketball courts, etc.
' b. Six foot wide concrete sidewalks be constructed on the south side of West 86th Street
from Highway 101 east to the project's terminus and a 5 foot wide core sidewalk on
' Mission Hills Lane from West 86th Street north to the street's terminus.
c. A bituminous trail shall be constructed encircling the wetland located south of West
' 86th Street, connecting the sidewalk system to the "park site." In consideration for the
construction of said trail, the applicant shall receive a lump sum payment equal to the
cost of construction. Said cost to be determined by the applicant for presentation to the
' city with documentation for verification.
' d. Full park and trail fees shall be collected at the time of building permit applications at
the rate then in force.
' There are some other changes that have taken place. These changes are as follows:
* The landscaping plan has been revised to reflect 3 trees on each single family lot within
Blocks 2 and 3. The plans failed to show berming along Highway 101 Right -of -way.
* The number of drainage ponds has been reduced to four from the original 7 ponds.
* Revised elevation plans have been submitted. These changes include the addition of
shutters, louvers, and variation in colors.
* The site is being final platted in two additions. This does not impact the plat in any
way.
* The commercial site has been excluded from the final plat. This site must be platted as
an outlot.
' Staff is recommending approval with conditions.
PUD DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS
The applicant has proposed development standards in their PUD plan. Staff has reviewed
these proposals, made comments or findings, and then given the staff proposal for language to
be incorporated into the final PUD plan document.
Mission Hills '►
October 4, 1994

a. Intent '
The purpose of this zone is to create a PUD neighborhood commercial/mixed density '
housing zone. The use of the PUD zone is to allow for more flexible design standards
while creating a higher quality and more sensitive proposal. All utilities are required to '
be placed underground. Each structure proposed for development shall proceed through
site plan review based on the development standards outlined below.
b. Permitted Uses I
The permitted uses within the neighborhood commercial zone should be limited to '
appropriate commercial and service uses consistent with the neighborhood. The uses
shall be limited to those as defined herein. If there is a question as to whether or not a
use meets the definition, the Planning Director shall make that interpretation. The type '
of uses to be provided on this outlot shall be low intensity neighborhood oriented retail
and service establishments to meet daily needs of residents. Such uses may include
small to medium sized restaurant (no drive -thru windows), office, day care, ,
neighborhood scale commercial, convenience store, churches, or other similar type and
scale uses.
c. Setbacks
In the PUD standards, the building setback for commercial is 50 feet from any public '
right -of -way. The Parking setback shall be 35 feet from any Public Right -of -Way and/
or interior property line. There shall be a buffer separating the residential portion from
the commercial portion of the site. This buffer shall be in the form of a berm and '
landscaping.
The following setbacks shall be observed: ,

e. Building Materials and Design
RESIDENTIAL
Building's exterior material shall be a combination of a five inch aluminum siding and
brick. The architectural style is generally classic with details such as arched transoms
and soffit returns over the entries of the one story homes and horizontal transom
windows over the two -story windows. On a similar project elsewhere, exterior finishes
were soft gray and creamy white, featuring pearl gray siding, shell white soffit/facia, and
gray velour brick.
Finding The PUD requires that the development demonstrate a higher quality of
architectural standards and site design. The two story buildings located on block 1,
reflect some architectural variation which makes the units more appealing. The one
story units located on Block 4 will also reflect architectural variation through the use of
different elements such as transoms, half round windows, and shutters (Attachment #1).
COMMERCIAL
1. All materials shall be of high quality and durable. Masonry material shall be
used. Color shall be introduced through colored block or panels.
2. Brick may be used and must be approved to assure uniformity.
3. Block shall have a weathered face or be polished, fluted, or broken face.
li
I Mission Hills
I 3. Colors used shall be earth tones such as soft gray, creamy white, pearl gray,
shell white, etc.).
' 4. Each unit shall have a minimum of 1 overstory tree within its front yard.
5. All units shall have access onto an interior street and not 86th Street.
f. Site Landscaping and Screening
The planting plans prepared for the site are intended to create a strong sense of street
tree plantings using overstory deciduous trees such as Summit Ash, Linden, and Sugar
Maple. Highways 101 and 212 will be buffered with a combination of overstory
' evergreen trees and ornamental deciduous trees. The outdoor private living areas will be
buffered with the use of evergreen trees. The wetland will be highlighted with the
introduction of native wetland species.

In addition, to adhere to the higher quality of development as spelled out in the PUD
zone, all loading areas shall be screened. Each lot for development shall submit a '
separate landscaping plan as a part of the site plan review process. Berms of 2 to 3 feet
high shall be added along the Highway 101 and 212 right-of-way. These berms shall be
seeded and /or sodded and bushes and trees shall be planted on them. All disturbed ,
areas within the single family lots shall be seeded and/or sodded. Two trees with a

,
g. Signage
'
COMMERCIAL
,
Staff is proposing one monument sign be permitted for the outlot and one monument
'
sign for the residential section of the PUD.
1. All businesses built within the outlot shall share one monument sign.
Monument signage shall be subject to the monument standards in the sign
ordinance.
,
2. Wall signs are permitted on no more that 2 street frontages. The total of each
wall mounted sign display areas shall not exceed (24 square feet).
,
3. All signs require a separate permit.
4. The signage will have consistency throughout the development and shall tie the
'
building materials to be consistent with the signs. Signs shall be an
architectural feature, they shall not be solely mounted on a pole of a
'
foundation.
' Mission Hills
October 4, 1994
Page 8
' 5. Consistency in signage shall relate to color, size, materials, and heights.
I 6. No illuminated signs within the outlot may be viewed from the residential
section of the PUD.
' 7. Only back -lit individual letter signs are permitted.
8. Individual letters may not exceed 3 feet in height.
' 9. Only the name and logo of the business occupying the unit will be permitted
on the sign.
RESIDENTIAL
' One monument identification sin shall be ernutted for the residential development. The
g P P
sign may not exceed 24 square feet in area and 5 feet in height.
h. Lighting
' Finding.
All light fixtures shall be shielded high pressure sodium fixtures. Light level
for site lighting shall be no more than ;6 candle at the property line. This does
not apply to street lighting. The maximum height of a residential street light
' shall not exceed 15 feet. Light fixtures within the outlot shall not exceed 25
feet.
I 2. Glare, whether direct or reflected, as differentiated from general illumination
shall not be visible beyond the limits of the site from which it originates.
I 3. Lights shall be on a photoelectric cell to turn them on and off automatically as
activated by yearly conditions.
' 4. The outlot light poles shall be corten, shoe box light standards.
GRADING & DRAINAGE
The City previously granted an Interim Use Permit (No. 94 -5) for site adin of this
�' g
development. The site grading is approximately 80% completed at this time. The financial
security and grading permit fees were received by the City. Staff has not received a final
grading plan back from the applicant's engineer in time to perform a quick overview to see if
i
Mission Hills
October 4, 1994
Page 9 ,
the grading plans have been completed in compliance with staffs' recommendations. Since
most of the items are relatively minor, staff recommends the City Council grant staff the ,
flexibility to administratively approve changes in the grading and construction plans that do
not substantially alter the plat.
The grading plans do not propose any grading on the commercial portion of the site at this '
time, however, drainage from the existing runoff patterns have been considered and address at
this time with this development. In the future when the development of the outlot occurs,
individual storm drainage plans will be required. '
The grading plan proposes large earth berms as shown between proposed the Trunk Highway '
212 corridor and the development. Berming has also been provided along proposed Trunk
Highway 101. The grading plan proposes four stormwater drainage basins designed to meet
the National Urban Runoff Program (NURP) standards. These NURP ponds are necessary to '
pretreat stormwater prior to discharging into the wetlands or downstream. Staff has still not
received back the final storm sewer runoff calculations and ponding data for this
development. Although we have received preliminary stormwater runoff, we are confident '
the site will be in conformance with the City's Surface Water Management Plan. Surface
Water Management fees (SWMP) have not been determined at this time as staff has not had a
chance to review the final storm water calculations. Upon receipt of these calculations, staff '
will prepare a breakdown of the surface water quality and quantity fees in accordance with
the SWMP plan. The applicant should be responsible for the appropriate surface water
management quality and quantity fees in accordance with the plan prior to the final plat being '
recorded at the County.
There are numerous drainageways in the rear yards that need to be protected with drainage '
and utility easements to maintain neighborhood drainage patterns. These areas are located as
follows:
1. Rear and areas of Block 2, Mission Hills development. Staff believes a drainage and ,
Y P
utility easement should be conveyed over the westerly 30 feet of the easterly 70 feet of
Block 2, Mission Hills. '
2. In addition, a storm sewer line is being proposed from Mission Hills Lane along the '
common property line between Lots 3 and 4, Block 2 to convey stormwater runoff.
Therefore, a 20 -foot wide drainage and utility easement centered upon the common lot
lines between Lots 3 and 4, Block 2 should be dedicated on the final plat. '
3. As mentioned, there are four stormwater ponds being created with this development.
The City should take over maintenance responsibilities in these ponding areas to ensure '
periodic cleaning and maintenance to ensure the proper function of these ponding areas.
' Mission Hills
October 4, 1994
Page 10
' Therefore, the final plat should dedicate drainage and utility easements overall
stormwater ponding areas and wetlands.
During the construction process of the new homes, the storm sewer lines and ponding areas
receive most of the erosion. Staff believes it should be the applicant's responsibility to
' maintain and clean the storm sewer lines and ponding areas until the site has been built out.
This typically occurs approximately two years the final plat has been recorded. Staff has
provided in the PUD/Development Contract a provision that requires the applicant be
' responsible for maintenance of the stormwater drainage system for two years after they are
constructed.
' UTILITIES
Preliminary construction drawings and specifications have been submitted to the City for
' review. The City has not received the final construction documents back with the changes in
time to confirm whether or not the necessary changes were made prior to preparing this
' report. Although most of these changes were relatively minor, staff does recommend the City
Council grant staff the flexibility to administratively approve any additional changes that are
needed on the construction plan documents.
' The City has authorized preparation of plans for the Lake Riley Area Improvement Project
(No. 93 -32) for extension of water service to this development. The City will receive an
' award of bids for this watermain project during the month of October, 1994. Therefore this
project's final plat should still be contingent upon the City authorizing and awarding the bids
for the Lake Riley Area Trunk Utility Improvement Project No. 93 -32.
In an effort to expedite the utility construction on the developer's property, the applicant has
modified the utility layout to incorporate the installation of the 12 -inch watermain along
' future West 86th Street consistent with the City's construction plan. If the developer
continues as planned to install the 12 -inch watermain proposed along West 86th Street, the
City will apply credits toward the applicant's overall assessments for said construction. The
' credit would be applied for the oversizing cost difference between the 8 -inch watermain and
the 12 -inch watermain.
The proposed utility lines located outside of West 86th Street and Mission Hills Lane and
Court shall be a private utility system and maintained by the homeowners association. Due to
the magnitude of this project, the City has required that all utilities be installed in accordance
' with the City's latest edition of Standard Specifications and Detail Plates. Fire hydrant
location has been reviewed and approved by the City's fire marshal.
The plans also include drain tile behind the curb to facilitate household sump pump discharge
and also to improve roadway subgrade drainage. On the streets that are proposed to be
Mission Hills
October 4, 1994
Page 11 r
private, staff is still recommending to the applicant that provisions be made to accommodate
for sump pump discharge. '
Sanitary sewer service for this development will be extended from the existing sanitary sewer
line located just outside the plat in the northwest corner of the site. The applicant will be ,
responsible for obtaining and conveying the necessary permanent drainage and utility
easement in order to connect to the sanitary sewer line and extend it to this development.
The sanitary sewer line is proposed to follow along the east side of Trunk Highway 101 along '
the easterly right -of -way line to proposed West 86th Street. The applicant should dedicate to
the City on the final plat the necessary drainage and utility easement for this installation and
maintenance. Staff recommends a 20 -foot wide drainage and utility easement outside the east '
right -of -way of Trunk Highway 101. The applicant will also be installing this segment of
trunk sanitary sewer line which was previously scheduled to be a part of the City's Lake
Riley Hills Improvement Project. Therefore, the applicant should receive credit against the '
assessment for the cost difference between an 8 -inch sanitary sewer line and the proposed 21-
inch sanitary sewer line.
STREETS '
The applicant's engineer has supplied the City with detailed construction drawings for the
,
streets within this development. The plans propose to realign West 86th Street which
currently exists today as a 20 -24' wide gravel street which eventually turns into Tigua Lane
which is upgraded to urban standards with blacktop and curb and gutter. The final plat will
r
dedicate the necessary right -of -way over West 86th Street; however, the final plat does not
provide necessary right -of -way through Outlot D, thus land locking this development from
TH 101. Staff recommends the final plat be revised to dedicate West 86th Street through
Outlot D to connect to TH 101. A portion of West 86th Street has been dedicated with 80'
wide right -of -ways to accommodate turn lanes for the future commercial site to the southwest
of the development and to provide adequate turning movements for the private townhomes.
'
Staff believes a right turn lane is also necessary at the first intersection of West 86th Street
into what is referred to as "Mission Hills Way West." The applicant's engineer is in
somewhat of a disagreement but has agreed to provide documentation with regards to traffic
,
counts and provide geometric designs that prohibit this turn lane to occur. Staff, however,
believes that a right turn lane into this location will be warranted in the future as traffic
counts meet the intended use of the area. Therefore, we believe that the right turn lane
'
should be required on West 86th Street to Mission Hills Way West and the plans revised
accordingly. With the exception of West 86th Street, Mission Hills Lane and Court, the
'
remaining streets will be private. Maintenance of these private streets will be the
homeowners' responsibilities. Over the southerly one -half of the development (south of West
86th Street), this type of development will require cross access easements to ensure access
'
rights for all individuals as well as spell out maintenance responsibilities. Therefore, the
applicant should prepare a cross access easement acceptable to the City for this area.
r
' Mission Hills
October 4, 1994
' Page 12
Along TH 101, a 66' wide right -of -way currently exists (33' on the Mission Hills side).
' Eventually TH 101 will be upgraded to a major four lane urban section and additional right -
of -way will be needed. The applicant has provided this corridor through platting of Outlot D
for future acquisition. At a minimum, the applicant is responsible for dedicating an additional
' 17 feet of right -of -way along the easterly side of TH 101 to provide a total of 50' from the
centerline of TH 101. The final plat should be modified to reflect this dedication. The final
plat denotes West 86th Street as 86th Street only. The final plat should be modified to
include the word "West" in front of 86th Street. Plans do provide for a 6' wide trail/sidewalk
along the south side of West 86th Street from TH 101 to the east plat boundary and a 5' wide
concrete sidewalk along the east side of Mission Hills Lane. In addition, the plans are
' providing for an 8' wide bituminous trail around the wetland located south of West 86th
Street which also connects to the proposed 6' wide sidewalk along West 86th Street. The
appropriate 20' wide trail easement should be conveyed to preserve the access maintenance of
' this trail corridor around the wetlands.
Staff has reviewed the street layout and has designated 8 street lights to be installed along
' West 86th Street and Mission Hills Lane and Court. Staff also recommends the applicant
provide to the City for review and approval, an interior street lighting layout on the private
streets as well.
Pending MnDOT approval, turn lanes and bypass lanes along TH 101 are anticipated. Since
MnDOT has not approved of the layout as of the preparation of this report, the street
construction plans do not include construction of these interim acceleration and deceleration
lanes along TH 101. Staff believes a condition should be added to require the applicant to
include the construction of these turn lanes and bypass lanes along TH 101 in accordance
' with MnDOT's standards or recommendations.
The applicant has indicated that due to weather constraints, a phasing approach to this
' development will occur. Currently, the residents of Tigua Lane gain access through the site
via the existing gravel road. So far access through this development during the site grading
phase, construction has been bearable. It is very important that the applicant concentrate on
completing West 86th Street completely from TH 101 to Tigua Lane prior to concentrating on
the private streets. Staff believes that this should be a goal of this development in order to
' maintain safe access to the existing homes on Tigua Lane as well as for emergency vehicles.

e. Building Materials and Design '
RESIDENTIAL
Building's exterior material shall be a combination of a five inch aluminum siding and '
brick. The architectural style is generally classic with details such as arched transoms

windows over the two -story windows. On a similar project elsewhere, exterior
finishes were soft gray and creamy white, featuring pearl gray siding, shell white
soffit/facia, and gray velour brick. '
Finding The PUD requires that the development demonstrate a higher quality of
architectural standards and site design. The two story buildings located on block 1, t
reflect some architectural variation which makes the units more appealing. The one
story units located on Block 4 have limited architectural variation. New elements
should be added to give the units some variation. This could be in the form of '
changing the shape of windows, adding louvers, shifting entry ways, and adding
dormers.

City Council Meeting - July 11, 1994
Don Ashworth: Dave, is there any question as it deals with the 25th? Should we advise people to watch the
paper as to the 25th or August 8th or can you make a commitment to the 25th?
' David Mitchell: I can make a commitment to the 25th. We're-Address those issues. I think in that time frame
we can look at some possible alternatives for the east end and be prepared to do that I guess as I sit here and
think of one of the options that has been presented is the density issue out there and the additional impact that
' Charles has given on the lift station as a possible ... I think we can address some of those impacts and proceed
with the project at that point...
Don Ashworth: Thank you.
' Councilman Mason: Will this private versus public thing enter into this at all? I mean what was mentioned. I
mean for their credit towards what's going on. I believe it was Mr. Putnam brought that up. Is that an option to
' be looked at all here? I mean would that facilitate things at all or we don't care about that?
Charles Folch: At this point, as long as there's still hope in doing at least that portion of the work this year, I
' think we should probably leave that issue, that alternative...
Councilman Mason: Okay. Okay.
Mayor Chmiel: Alright. Any other discussion?
Mayor Chmiel moved, Councilman Wing seconded to table the Lyman Boulevard and Lake Riley Trunk
Utility Project No. 93 -32 and authorizing plans and specifications until the next City Council meeting on
July 25, 1994. All voted in favor and the motion carried.

City Council Meeting - July 11, 1994 1
We won't go through the project any more since you've been through it a couple times but I would like to ask r
Ed to ... and then any of us would be available to answer any questions on the units or...
Mayor Chmiel: Thank you. Sharmin, I'll let you start this first. '
Sharmin Al -Jaffa Thank you. The ... You tabled it mainly because of the park issue. The applicant had not '
appeared before the Park and Recreation Commission yet for preliminary PUD application. One of the issues
was staff was requesting a 1.5 acre area for a park. The applicant was providing a .23 acre and this issue has
been resolved. The Park and Rec Commission recommended the 1.5 acre and the applicant's revised the plans
to show that park. This morning I was speaking to Mr. Mayer. He had some concerns regarding the location of ,
the totlot in relationship to the wetlands. This wetland has standing water. It's within close proximity to the
totlot is in close proximity to the wetland. Assuming that the children were supervised, would that be a concern
and we looked at other situations that we have in this city. One of them was in Lake Susan. However, and it's '
along the beach there is a totlot next to, Lake Susan has a totlot. However there's a distance between it and the
lake. Lake Ann has a totlot next to the beach but there's usually a lifeguard out there. We looked at fencing but
rather not doing the fencing around the wetland. One possibility would be to put it around the totlot itself. So
these are options before you. The second issue that was raised was the grading and the ponding on this site. ,
This remains an issue that hasn't been resolved and the engineering department and the applicant are working on
this still. Elevations was the third issue and staff feels that we have reached an agreement with the applicant.
He has revised the elevation plans and there are materials as well as renderings that he has brought with him that '
he could share with you so.
Councilman Wing: This is the new one? These are not up to date? ,
Councilwoman Dockendorf. These don't look compatible with what you've got up there.
Sharmin Al -Jaffa Those are the old ones. Okay, what's here is the new one.
Ed Hasek: This one's the new one too.
Sharmin Al -Jaffa Correct. One other difference between the old and the new is the new plans show two
additional units but they are still within the permitted density. They meet the comprehensive plan guidelines as
well as the zoning ordinance. The previous plan showed a higher density than was permitted under the '
comprehensive plan within this quarter of the parcel. However, because they added this open space here, we no
longer need to transfer density and they are within the guidelines. And also comprehensive plan and zoning
ordinance. So we are recommending approval with conditions outlined in the staff report and if you have any
questions, I'll be more than glad to answer them. '
Mayor Chmiel: Okay. Thank you Shannin. Gentlemen.
Ed Hasek: Your Honor, members of the Council, my name is Ed Hasek. I'm with Westwood Professional
Services. Again, our offices are located just down the highway here in Eden Prairie. I think to expedite things
just a little bit this evening I'm going to be as brief as I possibly can. I think Sharmin has done a good job of
outlining the changes between what I'm going to show you as the plan that we had presented for conceptual
approval. Basically the plan that was put together and that's why I had this one flipped up before. We went
through that concept with you I believe last time about the similarities and the project, the changes that have
occurred on this particular project. That we have reduced density in the southeastern quarter of the project while ,
19 1
City Council Meeting - July 11, 1994
obtaining two additional units. We're actually under 8 units per acre in both the medium and the high density
areas of this project as it stands right now. One thing that did occur, we have reduced the number of ponds by
one at this point and as Sharmin had pointed out, we are working diligently with the engineering staff to work
' out the issues related to ponding for this property. They basically relate to what the ultimate plan is for water
and how that's going to impact this particular development. What will or will not be temporary in... Again, 1.5+
acres of parkland is suggested for this plan. We're going to install the same facilities, the same todot, the same
hard surface and ball court area. That will be located in the area that I just pointed to on the map. And the
other thing that did occur on this is we had originally intended that the road that's just to the south of the pond,
this one right here, be extended across on a temporary basis with some sort of sub - surface hard cover and for
those times that emergency vehicles may want to use it. In working with the city staff and the fire marshal,
we've included a hammerhead. The details of that have not been worked out yet at this time. We're still talking
to him ... provided one that we know is in excess of what he's going to want and we're hoping that we can cut
that back to further expand the open space in the park. At that I think I'll let it go. If you've got any questions
of Don Jensen, related to the specific units, he can deal with that at this time.
Don Jensen: Mr. Mayor, members of the Council. Don Jensen with the Rottlund Company. We brought all our
boards with describing the various building components that are going into this. We would like to share with
you our screens with private parks, which is ... this is not a public parks. It's being asked of the developers to
create. Our insurance carriers, which then would insure for the homeowners association asked that we provide
signage. We're not real excited about fencing off amenities that are in fact.-desirable about Minnesota,
' Chanhassen and the western suburbs. Totlot is key in that it is for tots. The question unsupervised lots is an
interesting thing... supervision in Minnesota and ... that's always important regardless. Whether that's a pond or a
lake. We've been asked to provide fencing and signage. That's for the insurance carriers so that they know that
' these areas do have at least an awareness posted. At what point the awareness goes, that's always subject to
debate. We have worked with staff on changing the facade of our garden home product. That subdivision as
planned in the north of 86th has not changed and we've also submitted our building materials, which I have next
to Charlie here. And I'll just hold in front of the podium there, I think the camera picks those up as well. But
' we'd be looking at aluminum or vinyl siding. It depends on the manufacturers. Accent colors which are carried
around the garden home also on shudders which are on the end of the buildings that we were looking at. We
worked with staff on deviating on the standards. There's the transom windows. The detail as well as an arched
' window detail that we'd put on this end elevation. The previous plans had an idea for a fairly simply end
treatment. The current plans that we re- submitted back to staff deal with the change on the 8 unit buildings in
the center as well as beefing up the amount of window or perceived window volume on the end elevation.
When you look at the building, in reality outside of the architectural elevations and we have some photographs
that we shared with staff, virtually those whole end elevations are either doors or windows. There's not a whole
lot of wall space on those units. In fact they have a whole lot of added insulation for instance so we feel pretty
comfortable that we have a rather elegant looking building. Again, there's two sectors of the marketplace that
' we feel Chanhassen has created through the jobs market. It in Chaska and there's a lot of people that are really
needing housing under $100,000.00 in categories both starting out in a job and people winding down on their
jobs and that's what these two products are aimed squarely at with their building line and the garden home line.
I'd be happy to have me go through in a little bit greater detail the building plans that are all in your packets. I
would describe them at some length with some market research that we've been able to go through and we
believe that the people that are going to be living here are going to be either working within about 5 miles to 7
miles of this area or they're already living within 5 to 7 miles of this area. Thank you very much.
Mayor Chmiel: Thank you. Does anyone have any questions?
20
City Council Meeting - July 11, 1994 1
Councilman Wing: Are you looking at us? I
Mayor Chmiel: No, I'm looking at the audience who may be in and adjacent to that particular property. I don't
see any so I'll bring it back to Council. Richard.
Councilman Wing: Kate or Sharmin can you, my daughter just bought a house. She didn't qualify for much so
I want to talk about affordable housing. At some point in the discussion of this project we talked affordable
housing. And as I'm understanding, affordable housing that the city's looked at, we're looking at $60,000.00 to
$70,000.00 is affordable housing. I mean anything over that you've got to have a $30,000.00, $40,000.00,
$50,000.00 income. $100,000.00 mortgage doesn't come out of a $20,000.00 - $30,000.00 income. So what I'm '
getting at is, was this project supposedly going to enhance our affordable housing situation?
Sharmin Al -Jaffa Initially when we started working on it we suggested that maybe we could create a housing
district out there. That would be our only option basically to guarantee affordable prices on those units.
Kate Aanenson: They've indicated that they want to make it some affordable housing ... make it clear that we
have no way of guaranteeing what those prices are going to be. We can indicate a certain price range but there 's
no way that we can guarantee that that's what they're selling.
Councilman Wing: But I need to define affordable housing, and is affordable housing under $80,000.00? 1
Kate Aanenson: Yes.
Councilman Wing: Are any of these units going to sell?
Kate Aanenson: They had indicated that they had some at $69- $70,000.00. That's what we have in your report.
What I'm saying is there's no guarantee. '
Councilman Wing: Is that true? Is that true that a percentage of these are affordable housing?
Don Jensen: That's correct. I could show which ones are. Our standard villa, which is a one bathroom product '
which helps maintain the affordability, which is the center of the lower subdivision. It's next to 212. The
buildings that are cut in half that look at the wetland areas, have a 2 bathroom standard. Because of the extra ,
building materials, people are looking for that because that will tend to go in the 80's. These that are the back
to back configuration will come on the market and our pricing ... in the high 60's, low 70's. Obviously an
influence to that is whether or not the utility infrastructure gets in this year or next year because none of that
does get any cheaper.
Kate Aanenson: We just want to make it clear that that's all preferenced on their good faith that that's what...
Councilman Wing: Yeah, I'll get to that.
Kate Aanenson: There's no guarantee that...
Councilman Wing: Yeah, I want to ask about that. Out of your 100 and, I don't know how much are in these?
Out of these, out of the all level housing units, how many of that number, because I can't see here. Do you
know the number that would be in the $60,000.00 to $70,000.00 range? I
21 1
.1
I City Council Meeting - July 11, 1994
' Don Jensen: Certainly those would be all of the back to back dwelling units in through here that we'd be
targeting and those are about 84 -88 units of the project as it is presently configured
' Councilman Wing: And how about the ones that might go into the 80's? Approximately how many.
Don Jensen: The center units in the garden home areas are targeted and slotted so we can try to reach that
$80,000.00 category. As well as some of the interior units through here on this half buildings.
' Councilman Wing: So a good percentage.
' Don Jensen: Approximately 65% is trying to maintain underneath that $85,000.00 number and compared under
the villas under $80,000.00.
Councilman Wing: Okay. I'm getting increasingly down on these densities and the number of homes coming in
and the amount of traffic we're bringing in and the lack of infrastructure. It just seems like the cart's ahead of
the horse. And so I'm having a harder and harder time with these developments because all we do is keep
stamping them and all I look to see is that the silt fencing is in place and there's nothing more to be said They
meet our ordinances and I'm really concerned that we need an emergency review of our comprehensive plan.
But I'll go after this a little differently now that if we're going to meet some affordable housing needs, which is
with a good location and a good project, it alters my opinion on this. Can we, as a condition, lock in affordable
' housing of this project. Is there any way that we can assure that this goal is going to be met? If I was to
approve this, is there any condition, any wording we can put in this to insure that that goal is met or that that in
fact happens? Because once we approve it, like Kate said, there's nothing to say they can't go sell these for
' $125,000.00. If the market was there.
Tom Scott: Mr. Mayor, I'm not aware of any conditions imposed on this plat that would require the developer
to sell the units at a certain price.
' Mayor Chmiel: Unless the city were to come in with maybe having HRA or the County HRA subsidize a
particular project.
' Tom Scott: If there was some sort of involvement of that nature, there certainly may be a different set of rules
involved, yes.
1 Don Jensen: Mr. Mayor, Councilman Wing. What we have found is that one of the ways that you maintain
affordability, and quite often we're chased out of the room for bringing in housing under $80,000.00, is when
you take a look at the square footage of the dwelling units that's going in and all of that is part of the ... and you
' try to build value into each and every square foot. When you increase the square footage, no matter what
condition you put on, the building's fixed cost of creating whether it's a single family home or apartment
structure, you're right around that $45.00, $50.00, $55.00 a square foot range. When you can get market rate
' housing, a for profit builder trying to meet the needs of the market place and you look at that square footage,
that's how you're going to allow to have the city affordability goals be maintained And we believe we can do
an awful good job trying to meet those needs of the city outlines and one of the ways we can do it is speed If
we can move through a project and not have delays, we're able to maintain that pricing where we target it rather
than having to have increases because of delays and because of what Kate mentioned... asphalt and other elements
that we don't have any control over.
1
City Council Meeting - July 11, 1994 t
Councilman Wing: I don't want to belabor this and I don't want to bore my colleagues here but let me ask one
more question of Kate. Give me an option or another way that we can approach this. Maybe we can't do it
now but how can we obtain this goal ?. Would we have to rezone? Would we have to start out with city '
involvement right from scratch on a project like this? If we're going to go these high density projects, then I
want to attain some goals. How can we make sure we attain those goals?
Kate Aanenson: Well this property is under the ... zoning in the comprehensive plan. Okay, so it meets that 1
criteria. Now they've gone beyond that and made a good faith effort and we're assuming that they're going to
try to attain that as far as providing some affordable housing. That's one of the objectives of the PUD which
was one of the reasons why we supported the project. Again, you can take it a little bit differently but we
certainly feel that those are two objectives. As far as whether or not this ... city or some other agency would have
had to get involved prior to this to make it happen.
Councilman Wing: Okay.
Mayor Chmiel: Okay, Colleen. I
Councilwoman Dockendorf. So this condition 14, I mean is that still a valid point? Are we still going to
continue to explore options of putting a housing district over it?
Sharmin Al -Jaffa I believe it's getting at a point where it's...
Councilwoman Dockendorf: It's too late. That's what I just heard, okay. I think the developer's come a really ,
long ways since what we fast saw and I'm very impressed with what the project looks like. I really am. I'm
ready to go ahead with the preliminary plat. We do need to discuss however, as staff has pointed out, what goes
in the commercial part of it, although it's not up tonight for any specific buildings. We should discuss what we
want there. We've got some pretty nebulous definitions of what neighborhood community is, or maybe I just '
can't find it. I'm looking on page 7 and we're saying medium sized restaurant, office, daycare, neighborhood
scale commercial, which I don't know what that is, convenient store, churches, etc. Do we need to pin down
more specifically what we want here? Is that the direction you're looking for? ,
Sharmin Al -Jaffa If there are certain uses that you believe should.
Councilwoman Dockendorf: Well yeah.
Kate Aanenson: Square footage is one...
Councilwoman Dockendorf. Is the developer pretty much looking until TH 212 and TH 101 gets finished there
before they determine what they want?
Sharmin Al -Jaffa That's what they've told us.
Councilwoman Dockendorf. Okay. And do we have to hold them, I mean when it comes in as a PUD we like
to look at the whole package so.
23
City Council Meeting - July 11, 1994
Kate Aanenson: Right. And we also wanted to look at some criteria if...understanding of this is the framework.
This is what you're allowing. This is pretty significant to the understanding of—and also we want it to be a
compatible design.
' Councilwoman Dockendorf. Do we have a definition of neighborhood commercial or is it pretty much what I
just stated before?
' Sharmin Al -Jaffa This is pretty much the definition that we have. There is also in there a sentence that says, if
there was some confusion about any of this, the Planning Director will make the determination of that use.
Councilwoman Dockendorf. Okay. I'm fine with the definitions that are provided here. I think 20 and 26, the
conditions in here are repetitive. Other than that I have no problem with the conditions. There's some work to
be done but this has really gone a long way and this is only preliminary plat. From now on out it's just detail.
t Mayor Chmiel: Okay, Michael.
1 Councilman Mason: I basically agree with what's been said. All along here Councilman Wing and I have
disagreed on density issues and I suspect we will continue to. However, I do agree with him about infrastructure
issues and I think as these kinds of developments start coming into Chanhassen with the hopes of allowing more
affordable housing in this community, that infrastructure issue is something I really think we need to take a look
at. I think that's a really good point. I do also agree with his comments about, and I'm not sure whether it's
obtainable or attainable goals for affordable housing. I do commend Rottlund, and I think they've been in this
city enough and I think hope to be in this city enough that I'm pretty comfortable with what they're trying to do
' here in terms of $60,000.00 to $80,000.00. That's a far cry from what is the average single family home now in
Chan, $120,000.00?
Mayor Chmiel: Yep.
Councilman Mason: So that's good. I'm really glad to see that. I agree with what Colleen has said about the
work that's gone into this. Yeah, it looks good. I'm also, well believe me with children of my own, I do
' understand the Mayor's concern about safety. I also hear what Mr. Jensen is saying. And quite honestly I guess
I do pretty strongly believe that while the city, safety obviously is a paramount issue, it's even more important
for the family to practice that safety. Those safety issues than it is for the city. I guess I'm just throwing my
two cents in on that but it looks good. Looks okay.
Mayor Chmiel: Okay, thank you Mike. The only concern we have an awful lot of ndin throughout the city
Y Y Y Y lro g gh h'
and no fences in and adjacent to those. But only because of the close proximity to that one particular area, I
became a little concerned with it. Looking at it from a safety aspect. And even looking at it from the standpoint
if they were to just take fencing and just cover from one end down to the other and make a corner, which is
close to that play lot, it would probably have tendencies to alleviate some given problems. It's not a whole lot
' of fencing. It's just minor but because of that close proximity I guess that's where I really got my feeling from
that. And watching my own grandkids, you can keep your eye on them. Turn your back for one second and
they're gone. Just that quick. And I had a situation happen in a motel, and I won't give the name of the motel.
' No plugs. But one of my own children, who just moves fast and quick. I turned my head for no more than I'll
bet you 5 seconds and he was on the diving board at 2 1/2 years old and in the water. And that's where my
concerns come from. If an obstruction is there, it could just give that parent a little more time. But because, as
I said and I'll reiterate it one more time. The close proximity, I have that concern. And I would like to even
24
City Council Meeting - July 11, 1994 1
25 1
make that as an additional condition that they look at that and put fencing on that one specific area with that.
But other than that, I think it does look good. I think density is there and they're still a little bit under density
and maybe we need to improve our density aspects when we look at something but for what's there and what we
have on the books, it's compatible. So with that, any other discussion?
,
Councilman Wing: Do you want one more comment? Will you accept one more comment?
Mayor Chmiel: You have it.
Councilman Wing: I don't find any problem with the project. I think it meets some needs but for 4 years since
we moved the MUSA line we've gotten into an identical routine that's starting to bother me because I've lived
here 30 years and I moved here for some amenities and a lifestyle that's starting to get choked out. Everything
coming before us is high density, maximum use. And all I'm seeing coming out of these are stop lights, traffic,
and choking up a lifestyle. So everytime one of these high density projects comes in, and I'm glad this one isn't
'
in my neighborhood, this is only one and there's another one tonight, and there was another one last week.
We're just approving one right after another and the net result is I think we're really starting to affect a lifestyle
and the future of this community and I'm not so sure it's in a positive way. But we're doing it without an awful
lot of discussion. That's why I'm concerned about the comp plan and why I make these statements. Good
project but what are we really doing visionary wise here. That's, I threw my two cents worth in here and I
apologize humbly to.
Councilwoman Dockendorf: Well, let me throw in one more comment. Tonight we're approving over 200 acres
in the city. Just tonight. That's so scary.
Mayor Chmiel: That's right. That's right. Which will be done by '97.
Councilman Wing: Anyway with that I'll move approval. Wait a minute, what am I moving?
Mayor Chmiel: Well there's 3 different motions that we'll have.
Councilman Wing: Here, I'm going to let Mike do it because he's better at putting 3 together.
'
Councilman Mason: It's that third grade teaching experience Councilman.
Mayor Chmiel: If you look on page 2. It's under the comments.
Councilman Mason: Alright. I'll move approval of Preliminary Plat for Subdivision #94 -5 and Site Plan #94 -5
as shown on plans dated April 15, 1994 and revised plans received July 5, 1994 as subject to the conditions as
stated in the staff report.
Mayor Chmiel: Okay. And in addition to that, does it also have the rezoning of the property? From RSF,
'
residential single family to PUD.
Councilman Mason: Yep, I'll move that also. Are we going to do them all three at once here?
'
Mayor Chmiel: Yes.
25 1
i City Council Meeting - July 11, 1994
Councilman Mason: Okay. I'll move the preliminary site plan for the PUD.
Mayor Chmiel: Is that what you're looking for Sharmin?
Sharmin Al -Jaffa No. Actually the rezoning is done with the final plat.
' Mayor Chmiel: Okay. Alright, then we'll just sit with that and pull that back. I thought I'd best ask that
question before we proceed.
' Councilman Wing: Item 14, can that be deleted?
Mayor Chmiel: And item 14 being deleted.
Councilman Wing: I'm asking. Should it be deleted? We're not going to put a housing district overlay on
this.
Mayor Chmiel: Yeah, okay.
Councilwoman Dockendorf: Well as long as you're cleaning it up, I think 20 and 26 is repetitive.
' Kate Aanenson: Right.
Councilman Mason: Well one of them should stay in. That motion includes deleting item number 14 and item
number 26. And all we want is preliminary plat tonight, right?
Mayor Chmiel: That's all we're looking for. Strictly that as shown. Motion on the floor with a second.
Councilman Mason moved, Councilman Wing seconded to approve the preliminary plat for Subdivision
#94 -5 and Site Plan #94 -5 as shown on the plans dated April 15, 1994 and revised plans received July 5,
1994, subject to the following conditions:
' 1. All utility and street improvements (public and private) shall be constructed in accordance with the City's

D. Full park fees shall be collected at the time of building permit applications at the rate then in force.
13. Plans outlining general layouts (with alternatives) building massings, square footage limitations, grading, '
building materials, architectural designs, pedestrian access, and development intent need to be developed
for the commercial area. We realize that the developer, Tandem Properties, will not be owning or
developing this area. Ownership is being retained by Al Klingelhutz. Still, both parcels are located within '
the PUD and we believe that the city would be remiss if we did not exercise our ability to ensure that the
ultimate development of the parcel is compatible with the best interests of the community. We had
suggested what we believe to be acceptable in this report and would appreciate the City Council's input.
