Notice of this public hearing has been mailed to all property owners within 500 feet. Staff is recommending approval of the request. LEVEL OF CITY DISCRETION IN DECISION-MAKING: The City's discretion in approving or denying a preliminary plat is limited to whether or not the Proposed plat meets the standards outlined in the Subdivision Regulations and Zoning Ordinance, If it meets these standards, the City must approve the preliminary plat. This is a quasi-judicial decision. The City's discretion in approving or denying a variance is limited to whether or not the proposed project meets the standards in the Zoning Ordinance for a variance. The City has a relatively high level of discretion with a variance because the applicant is seeking a deviation from established standards. This is a quasi-judicial decision. ./~ ri'/e /~ ci r a~-e rai ~st f6t-~ St La Haye Addition September g22, 2003 Page 2 This report has been edited. All new information will appear in bold. Items that have been met are struck through. PROPOSAL/SUMMARY The applicant is proposing to subdivide 1.56 acres into 2 single family lots. The property is zoned RSF, Single Family Residential District. The site contained a single family home which has been demolished. Access to the site is gained via an existing private street off of Great Plains Boulevard. An abandoned right-of-way is located south of the subject site. The applicant is requesting vacation of the right-of-way. Staff is recommending approval of the vacation with the condition that a drainage and utility easement be maintained over the vacated portion (the vacation of the right-of- way requires City Council action only). Approval of the subdivision will be contingent upon approval of the vacation. The variance in this application is to allow proposed Lot 2 to have two street frontages, which is prohibited by ordinance. This variance will allow this parcel to gain access off of Great Plains Boulevard rather than Frontier Trail. Staff is recommending approval of the variance. This issue is discussed in detail later in the report. The average lot size is 34,145 square feet with a resulting density of 1.28 units per acre. The site is located west of Frontier Trail and at the northeast comer of the intersection of Great Plains La Haye Addition September g22, 2003 Page 3 Boulevard and Santa Fe Trail. Both lots meet the minimum area, width, and depth requirements of the Zoning Ordinance. The site contains a bluff along the northeast comer. The required setbacks will be maintained from the edge of the bluff. The site has mature trees which the applicant is making an effort to preserve. In reviewing this plat, staff worked with the applicant to correct the street system in the area. The current turnaround area, which the private street comes off of, is a convoluted mix of multiple driveways and irregular shaped pavement. In an effort to correct this non-standard turnaround area, the applicant is proposing to create a hammer head turn around. In summary, staff believes that the proposed subdivision is well designed. Minor revisions will be required. We are recommending that it be approved with a variance to allow a double frontage lot with conditions outlined in the staff report. BACKGROUND On April 15, 2003, the Planning Commission reviewed and approved a preliminary plat with a variance and a street vacation on the subject site for a two lot subdivision. The layout consisted of two lots. Lot I faced the private street and Lot 2 faced Frontier Trail. After reexamining the proposal and layout, the applicant withdrew the application. Proposed new layout Original Layout approved April 15, 2003 La Haye Addition September g22, 2003 Page 4 PRELIMINARY AND FINAL PLAT The applicant is proposing to subdivide a 1.56 acre site into 2 single family lots. The density of the proposed subdivision is 1.28 units per acre. Both lots exceed the minimum 15,000 square ft. of area, with an average lot size of 34,154 square feet. Both proposed lots meet the minimum width and depth requirements of the Zoning Ordinance. A bluff occupies the east portion of proposed Lot 1. The ordinance requires all structures to maintain a 30 foot setback from the top of the bluff. The plans indicate that this setback can be accommodated and no grading is proposed within that area. Staff notes that the proposal is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and generally consistent with the Zoning Ordinance. WETLANDS There are no wetlands on this site. SURFACE WATER MANAGEMENT PLAN (SWMP) Based on the proposed developed area of 1.57 acres, the water quality fees associated with this project are estimated at $1,490 and the water quantity fees associated with this project are estimated at $3,686. The applicant will not be assessed for areas that are dedicated outlots. No credit will be given for temporary pond areas. At this time, the estimated total SWMP fee, due and payable to the City at the time of final plat recording, is $5,176. There is no storm water infrastructure installed or proposed on the subject property or within the Frontier Trail right-of-way. For this reason, this property and the properties downstream are not capable of accommodating increased runoff rates and volumes. Storm water calculations should be submitted to demonstrate that the proposed subdivision maintains existing runoff rates and volumes. Impervious surfaces should be minimized to the greatest extent possible due to the lack of storm water infrastructure. This includes the construction of Alternate A (Hammerhead Turnaround) instead of Alternate B (Complete Circle). The applicant should dedicate a drainage and utility easement at least 10 feet wide on either side of the southern property line so storm water infrastructure can be installed at a future date, if necessary. La Haye Addition September g22, 2003 Page 5 GRADING/DRAINAGE/EROSION CONTROL There is one house on the existing site which will be demolished as a part of the site grading. Each of the proposed house pads are shown as walk-out type structures. The site lends itself to these types of houses due to the natural slope of the site. As a result, minimal grading will be required, outside of the housepad area, to prepare each of the lots for building. If grading material will need to be imported or exported to construct the lots and streets, the applicant and/or contractor must supply the City Engineer with a haul route for review and approval prior to grading activities commencing. Also, the applicant should be aware that any grading outside of the property limits or right-of-way will require a temporary easement. Staff would like to see more detail concerning the proposed drainage in the turnaround area. Specifically, how the applicant is planning on routing the stormwater from the turnaround to the east. Staff is recommending that a catchbasin be installed at the low point in the turnaround with a storm sewer that discharges just-east of the proposed driveway for Lot 2. The stormwater from the cul de sac would then flow in the existing swale along the south lot line of the plat to Frontier Trail. Erosion control measures and site restoration must be developed in accordance with the City's Best Management Practice Handbook (BMPH). Silt fence is shown along the grading limits of the site where storm water and sediment can run off. In addition, tree preservation fencing needs to be added around any and all trees to be saved. UTILITIES The plans propose to connect the new house to "possible" sanitary and water mains along the south property line of the plat. There is an existing sanitary main in this area; however, there is no water main. As such, water service for Lot 2 will have to be obtained from the existing main in Frontier Trail Great Plains Boulevard. According to the City's Finance Department records, there are no assessments due for the existing lot. The site will be subject to one sanitary sewer and water connection charge, however, for the benefit of the lateral mains to the new lot. The 2003 connection charges for both sanitary sewer and water are $4,513. The property is also subject to sanitary sewer and water hook-up charges for the new lot. The 2003 trunk utility hook-up charges are $1,440 per unit for sanitary sewer and $1,876 per unit for water. The 2003 SAC charge is $1,275 per unit. These charges are collected prior to the building permit issuance. La Haye Addition September g22, 2003 Page 6 STREETS The applicant is proposing to upgrade the private street to meet current City standards, ant to remove one of thc existing driveway accesses on the private street. In order to save the two existing Oak trees on each side of the private street near the proposed cul-de-sac, staff would like the flexibility to narrow or keep the same street width in this area. The proposed private street upgrades must also include a 30-foot wide private easement dedicated to the benefiting property owners. Following the upgrades to the private street off of Great Plains Blvd., there will be threc homes accessing off of it. One of the existing lots (Manarin lot at 7552 Great Plains Blvd.) off the private street has the potential to subdivide in the future. If this happened, there would be a total of four homes served by the private street. The City Code allows a maximum of four homes off a private street. Therefor-e, Lot 2 should not use the same driveway access off of Great Plains Blvd. as the private street. Staff recommends that the two driveway accesses be separated by a minimum of five feet. While either of the proposed turnarounds (alternates A or B) will work, staff is recommending that the applicant install alternate B. This would provide the City with the same accessibility and maintenance benefits as a cul de sac with a median island in the The City has an existing 60-foot area of right-of-way just south of the existing site's property. The applicant is requesting that the City vacate the right-of-way which would allow the abutting property owners along the north and south to each gain half (30-feet) of the vacated land. A 30-foot wide area has been shown on the applicant's preliminary plat drawing. Staff has no problem with this vacation since the existing topography within the right-of-way is very steep and would require retaining walls to incorporate a public street. Detailed street construction plans and specifications in accordance with the City's latest edition of Standard Specifications and Detail Plates will be required have been submitted for review and approval by the City Council at the time of final plat consideration. Since the street improvements will become owned and maintained by the City, the applicant must enter into a development contract with the City and provide financial security in the form of a letter of credit or cash escrow to guarantee construction of the public improvements. Permits from the appropriate regulatory agency will be required, including but not limited to: Watershed District, MPCA, etc. La Haye Addition September g22, 2003 Page 7 VACATION OF RIGHT-OF-WAY Staff received an application from property owners adjacent to the shaded area of Santa Fe Trail. The applicants are requesting to vacate a portion of Santa Fe Trail. Currently, no street exists in that area. The grades in the area are steep making a street connection unlikely. Staff is recommending approval of the vacation since the right-of-way is not needed. The City will retain a drainage and utility easement over the sanitary sewer line. Santa Fe Trail i I West ?6th Street g La Haye Addition ] ,_~ PARK DEDICATION Full park and trail fees will be collected in lieu of land dedication for the newly created lot in the amount of $2,400. TREE PRESERVATION/LANDSCAPING The developer for the LaHaye Addition has submitted tree canopy coverage and preservation calculations. The applicant has proposed no tree removal. Total upland area (excluding wetlands) 1.56 ac. Baseline canopy coverage 65% or 1.01 ac. La Haye Addition September g22, 2003 Page 8 Minimum canopy coverage allowed Proposed tree preservation 46% or .72 ac. 65 % or 1.01 ac. The developer does meet minimum canopy coverage allowed. There are no buffer yard requirements for this subdivision. However, the applicant has proposed planting between Lots 1 and 2, and Lot 2 and the lot to the south, as well as plantings on other private properties in the neighborhood. A total of 10 deciduous trees and 30 evergreens are proposed. The construction of a hammerhead turnaround is preferred for tree preservation. Extending the existing pavement to create a circular turnaround would have a detrimental effect on the existing trees within the fight-of-way.

SUBDIVISION - FINDINGS 1. The proposed subdivision is consistent with the zoning ordinance; Finding: The subdivision meets all the requirements of the RSF, Residential Single Family District and the zoning ordinance if the double frontage variance is approved. o The proposed subdivision is consistent with all applicable city, county and regional plans including, but not limited to, the city's comprehensive plan; La Haye Addition September g22, 2003 Page 9 Finding: The proposed subdivision is consistent with the comprehensive plan and subdivision ordinance. 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 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 significant environmental damage subject to conditions of approval. The proposed subdivision contains adequate open areas to accommodate house pads. 6. The proposed subdivision will not conflict with easements of record. Finding: The proposed subdivision will not conflict with existing easements, but rather will expand and provide all necessary easements. The proposed subdivision is not premature. A subdivision is premature if any of the following exists: Lack of adequate storm water drainage. Lack of adequate roads. Lack of adequate sanitary sewer systems. Lack of adequate off-site public improvements or support systems. Finding: The proposed subdivision will have access to public utilities and streets. VARIANCE Section 18-60. Lots. (g) states "Double frontage lots with frontage on two (2)parallel streets or reverse frontage shall not be permitted except where lots back on an arterial or collector street. La Haye Addition September g22, 2003 Page 10 Such lots shall have an additional depth of at least ten (lO)feet to accommodate vegetative screening along the back lot line. Wherever possible, structures on double frontage lots should face the front of existing structures across the street. If this cannot be achieved, then such lots shall have an additional depth often (JO)feet to accommodate vegetation screening along the back lot line." Staff is recommending Lot 2 be permitted as a double frontage lot since Frontier Trail acts as a collector street. VARIANCE FINDINGS Sec. 18-22. Variances. 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: (2) (3) (4) The hardship is not a mere inconvenience; The hardship is caused by the particular physical surroundings, shape or topographical conditions of the land; The condition or conditions upon which the request is based are unique and not generally applicable to other property; 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. Finding: The applicant has demonstrated in previous proposals that it is possible to create parcels that meet the letter of the ordinance. However, by doing so, site grading and tree removal increases. The applicant's request is fairly reasonable. The ordinance allows double frontage lots if one of the roads is a collector. Frontier Trail is not classified is a collector street, however, it possesses many of the characteristics of one. Based upon these findings, staff is recommending approval of this variance. PLANNING COMMISSION UPDATE On September 2, 2003, the Planning Commission reviewed and approved this application unanimously. The neighborhood favored the hammerhead configuration for the road rather than a typical cul-de-sac. La Haye Addition September g22, 2003 Page 11 RECOMMENDATION Staff recommend The Planning Commission recommends the City Council adopt the following motions: VACATION OF RIGHT-OF-WAY (Only City Council approval is required on this portion of thc application.

City Engineer,~;//~ ~ September 15, 2003 Preliminary and Final Plat Review of Lahaye Addition Land Use Review File No. 03-04 and Project No. 03-07 Upon review of the plans prepared by Gronberg & Associates, dated September 11, 2003, I offer the following comments and recommendations: GRADING/DRAINAGE/EROSION CONTROL There is one house on the existing site which will be demolished as a part of the site grading. Each of the proposed house pads are shown as walk-out type structures. The site lends itself to these types of houses due to the natural slope of the site. As a result, minimal grading will be required, outside of the housepad area, to prepare each of the lots for building. If grading material will need to be imported or exported to construct the lots and streets, the applicant and/or contractor must supply the City Engineer with a haul route for review and approval prior to grading activities commencing. Also, the applicant should be aware that any grading outside of the property limits or right-of-way will require a temporary easement. Erosion control measures and site restoration must be developed in accordance with the City's Best Management Practice Handbook (BMPH). Silt fence is shown along the grading limits of the site where stormwater and sediment can run off. In addition, tree preservation fencing needs to be added around any and all trees to be saved. UTILITIES The plans propose to connect the new house to "possible" sanitary and water mains along the south property line of the plat. There is an existing sanitary main in this area; however, there is no water main. As such, water service for Lot 2 will have to be obtained from the existing main in Great Plains Boulevard. · According to the City's Finance Department records, there are no assessments due for the existing lot. The site will be subject to one sanitary sewer and water connection charge for the benefit of the lateral mains to the new lot. The 2003 connection charges for both sanitary sewer and water are $4,513. The City of Chanhassen. A growing community with clean lakes, quality schools, a charming downtown, thriving businesses, windiog trails, and beautiful parks. A great place to live, work, and play. Sharmeen~-Jaff September 15, 2003 Page 2 The property is also subject to sanitary sewer and water hook-up charges for the new lot. The 2003 trunk utility hook-up charges are $1,440 per unit for sanitary sewer and $1,876 per unit for water. The 2003 SAC charge is $1,275 per unit. These charges are collected prior to the building permit issuance. STREETS The applicant is proposing to upgrade the private street to meet current City standards. In order to save the two existing Oak trees on each side of the private street near the proposed cul-de-sac, staff would like the flexibility to narrow or keep the same street width in this area. The proposed private street upgrades must also include a 30-foot wide private easement dedicated to the benefiting property owners. The City has an existing 60-foot area of right-of-way just south of the existing site's property. The applicant is requesting that the City vacate the right-of- way which would allow the abutting property owners along the north and south to each gain half (30-feet) of the vacated land. A 30-foot wide area has been shown on the applicant's preliminary plat drawing. Staffhas no problem with this vacation since the existing topography within the right-of-way is very steep and would require retaining walls to incorporate a public street. Detailed street construction plans and specifications in accordance with the City's latest edition of Standard Specifications and Detail Plates have been submitted for review and approval by the City Council. Since the street improvements will become owned and maintained by the City, the applicant must enter into a development contract with the City and provide financial security in the form of a letter of credit or cash escrow to guarantee construction of the public improvements. Permits form the appropriate regulatory agency will be required, including but not limited to: Watershed District, MPCA, etc. C~ Teresa Burgess, Director of Public Works/City Engineer Mak Sweidan, Engineer g:\eng\projects\lahaye addition~fpr.doc CITYOF 7700 Market Boulevard PO Box 147 Chanhassen, MN 55317 Administration Phone: 952.227.1100 Fax: 952.227.1110 Building Inspections Phone: 952.227.1180 Fax: 952.227.1190 Engineering Phone: 952.227.1160 Fax: 952.227.1170 Finance Phone: 952.227.1140 Fax: 952.227.1110 Park & Recreation Phone: 952.227.1120 Fax: 952.227Al10 Recreation Center 2310 Couller Boulevard Phone: 952.227.1400 Fax: 952.227.1404 Planning & Natural Resources Phone: 952.227.1130 Fax: 952.227.1110 Public Works 1591 Park Road Phone: 952.227.1300 Fax: 952.227.1310 Senior Center Phone: 952.227.1125 Fax: 952.227.1110 Web Site www. cLchanhassen.mn.us TO: FROM: DATE: SUB J: MEMORANDUM Sharmeen A1-Jaff, Senior Planner Saam, Asst. City Engineer ]t~ Matt April 7, 2003 Preliminary Plat Review of Lahaye Addition Land Use Review File No. 03-04 Upon review of the plans prepared by Gronberg & Associates, dated February 11, 2003, I offer the following comments and recommendations: GRADING/DRAINAGE/EROSION CONTROL The existing 1.5 acre site contains, approximately, 62-feet of elevation change. From a low point of 922 in the northeast comer of the site to a high point of 984 along the westerly lot line, the site rises sharply from east to west. Significant site features include a bluff in the northeast part of the site along with, just over, an acre of tree canopy coverage. Every effort should be made to protect these significant features. There is one house on the existing site which will be demolished as a part of the site grading. Each of the proposed house pads are shown as walk-out type structures. The site lends itself to these type of houses due to the natural slope of the site. As a result, minimal grading will be required, outside of the housepad area, to prepare each of the lots for building. If grading material will need to be imported or exported to construct the lots and streets. The applicant and/or contractor must supply the City Engineer with a haul route for review and approval prior to grading activities commencing. Also, the applicant should be aware that any grading outside of the property limits or right- of-way will require a temporary easement. The existing site drains from west to east. Currently stormwater from Great Plains Boulevard flows overland, through the site, to Frontier Trail. The proposed grading plan will maintain the existing drainage pattern. Staff would like to see more detail concerning the proposed drainage in the cul-de-sac area. Specifically, how the applicant is planning on routing the stormwater from the cul-de-sac to the east. Staff is recommending that a catchbasin be installed at the low point in the cul-de-sac with a storm sewer that discharges just east of the proposed driveway for Lot 2. The stormwater from the cul-de-sac would then flow in the proposed swale along the south lot line of the plat to Frontier Trail. The City of Chanhassen · A growing community with clean lakes, quality schools, a charming downtown, thriving businesses, winding trails, and beautiful parks. A great place to live, work, and play. Sharmeen Al-~aff April 7, 2003 Page 2 Erosion control measures and site restoration must be developed in accordance with the City's Best Management Practice Handbook (BMPH). Silt fence is shown along the grading limits of the site where stormwater and sediment can run off. In addition, tree preservation fencing needs to be added around any and all trees to be saved. UTILITIES No public utilities are proposed with this lot split. The existing house is already connected to municipal sewer and water. The plans propose to connect the new house to "possible" sanitary and water mains along the south property line of the ~plat. There is and existing sanitary main in this area, however, there is no water main. As such, water service for Lot 2 will have to be obtained from the existing main in Frontier Trail. According to the City's Finance Department records, there are no assessments due for the existing lot. The site will be subject to one sanitary sewer and water connection charge; however, for the benefit of the lateral mains to the new lot. The 2003 connection charges for both sanitary sewer and water are $4,513. The property is also subject to sanitary sewer and water hook-up charges for the new lot. The 2003 trunk utility hook-up charges are $1,440 per unit for sanitary sewer and $1,876 per unit for water. The 2003 SAC charge is $1,275 per unit. These charges are collected prior to the building permit issuance. STREETS Currently, access to the existing house on Lot 1 is via a private street off of Great Plains Blvd. This private street does not meet the current standards for such streets, i.e. 7-ton per axle design and 20-foot wide pavement. As a part of the site development, the applicant is proposing to upgrade the private street to meet the above-mentioned standards and to remove one of the existing driveway accesses on the private street. In order to save the two existing Oak trees on each side of the private street near the proposed cul-de-sac, staff would like the flexibility to narrow or keep the same street width in this area. The proposed private street upgrades should also include a vehicle turnaround area, acceptable to the City's Fire Marshall, and a 30-foot wide private easement dedicated to the benefiting property owners. The current turnaround area which the private street comes off of is a convoluted mix of multiple driveways and irregular shaped pavement. In an effort to correct this non-standard turnaround area, the applicant is proposing to dedicate additional right-of-way and to install a cul-de-sac. The proposed cul-de-sac right- Sharmeen Al-~ff April 7, 2003 Page 3 of-way is shown as a standard 60-foot radius; however, the pavement radius must be increased from 42- to 45-feet in accordance with City standards. The applicant has shown two possible options for access to Lot 2. One option is to install a driveway from the east off of Frontier Trail (grading plan alternate 2). While Frontier Trail is the street that Lot 2 will have the most frontage on, the steep driveway grades that would be required and collector route designation of Frontier Trail make this option unappealing. In addition, access from Frontier Trail may require the removal of significant trees that could otherwise be saved. The second option is for Lot 2 to gain access from the west off of the proposed cul-de-sac on Great Plains Boulevard (grading plan alternate 1). Following the upgrades to the private street off of Great Plains Blvd., there will be three homes accessing off of it. One of the existing lots (Manarin lot at 7552 Great Plains Blvd.) off the private street has the potential to subdivide in the future. If this happened, there would be a total of four homes served by the private street. The City Code allows a maximum of four homes off a private street. Therefore, Lot 2 should not use the same driveway access off of Great Plains Blvd. as the private street. Staff recommends that the two driveway accesses be separated by a minimum of five feet. Staff is in support of the Lot 2 access coming from the west and the variances associated with it. The City has an existing 60-foot area of right-of-way just south of the existing site's property. As a condition of the subdivision, the applicant is requesting that the City vacate the north half of the right-of-way and deed the land back to the applicant. This 30-foot wide area has been included in the applicant's preliminary plat drawing. Staff has no problem with this vacation since the existing topography within the right-of-way is very steep and would require retaining walls to incorporate a public street. Detailed street construction plans and specifications in accordance with the City's latest edition of Standard Specifications and Detail Plates will be required for review and approval by the City Council at the time of final plat consideration. Since the street improvements will become owned and maintained by the City, the applicant must enter into a development contract with the City and provide financial security in the form of a letter of credit or cash escrow to guarantee construction of the public improvements. Permits form the appropriate regulatory agency will be required, including but not limited to: Watershed District, MPCA, etc. Sharmeen Al-~aff April 7, 2003 Page 4 RECOMMENDED CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL 1. Install sod in all of the pavement removal areas. o If grading material will need to be imported or exported to construct the lots and streets. The applicant and/or contractor must supply the City Engineer with a detailed haul route for review and approval prior to site grading. The new cul-de-sac on Great Plains Boulevard shall be constructed to current City design standards with B-618 curb and gutter. A minimum 30-foot wide drainage and utility easement is required over the public sanitary sewer line on Lots 1 & 2. o Remove any existing pavement within the cul-de-sac right-of-way so the existing driveways have a maximum width of 24-feet, as per City Code. Any grading or utility work outside of the property limits or right-of-way will require a temporary easement. A maximum slope of 3:1 is allowed without a retaining wall. Revise the grading plan to comply. o A private easement is required for the driveway of Lot 2 which crosses over Lot 1. 9. Revise the grading plan as follows: Co Show the proposed neck radius for the cul-de-sac. Show the proposed grades for the private street and cul-de-sac upgrades.

Add a catchbasin at the low point in the cul-de-sac with a storm sewer line that discharges just east of the proposed driveway for Lot 2. The water service for Lot 2 will have to be obtained from the existing main in Frontier Trail. The proposed private street upgrades should include a vehicle turnaround area, acceptable to the City's Fire Marshall, and a 30-foot wide private easement dedicated to the benefiting property owners. In order to save the two existing Oak trees on each side of the private street, the existing street width may be maintained in this area. Lot 2 cannot use the same driveway access off of Great Plains Blvd. as the private street. The two driveway accesses shall be separated by a minimum of five feet. Detailed street construction plans and specifications in accordance with the City's latest edition of Standard Specifications and Detail Plates will be required for review and approval by the City Council at the time of final plat consideration. Since the street improvements will become owned and maintained by the City, the applicant must enter into a development contract with the City and provide financial security in the form of a letter of credit or cash escrow to guarantee construction of the public improvements. Permits form the appropriate regulatory agency will be required, including but not limited to: Watershed District, MPCA, etc. The site will be subject to one sanitary sewer and water connection charge for the new lot. The 2003 connection charges for both sanitary sewer and water are $4,513. The property is also subject to sanitary sewer and water hook-up charges for the new lot. The 2003 trunk utility hook-up charges are $1,440 per unit for sanitary sewer and $1,876 per unit for water. The 2003 SAC charge is $1,275 per unit.
