MEMORANDUM
TO Todd Gerhardt City Manager
FROM
t
Kate Aanenson AICP Community Development Director
DA TE April 28 2008
SUBJ 2030 Comprehensive Plan Bring your copy of the Draft Plan
BACKGROUND
The purpose of this review is to give the City Council a summary of the
comments received during the jurisdictional review period Staff drafted a
synopsis of all of the chapters with the comment issues and City responses At
this meeting City staff will be reviewing the Parks Open Space Sewer Water
and Transportation Sections The draft document has been revised where
appropriate in response to the comments
ANALYSIS
Following is a summary of the chapter contents the comments received and
staff s responses
Park Recreation Chapter 6
Synopsis The Park and Recreation chapter of the 2030 Comprehensive Plan
provides an overview and an analysis of the City s existing system It identifies
objectives and policies that will guide park and recreation decision making
through the year 2030 as well as identifying key initiatives that will be completed
to enhance the current park and trail systems In our community we have
numerous non city recreational facilities that play an integral role in fulfilling
residents recreational needs Minnewashta Regional Park the Minnesota
Landscape Arboretum the Minnesota Valley Wildlife Refuge Raguet Wildlife
Management Area golf courses and Camp Tanadoona are all important recreation
destinations Two regional trails owned by the Hennepin County Regional
Railroad Authority and managed primarily by Three Rivers Park District can be
found in both the southern and northern tiers of the City In addition regional
trails are located along State Highway 101 and State Highway 5
Issue Carver County has provided the City with comments regarding the Parks
Open Space Chapter of the Comprehensive Plan See attached email
Response Staff believes that the draft Comprehensive Plan is appropriate and
should be approved
The City 01 Chanhassen A growing community with clean lakes quality schools a channing downtown thriving businesses winding trails and beautiful parks A great place to live work and play 4

Transportation Chapter 7
Synopsis The transportation chapter identifies the density and distribution of land uses in the
community and their relationship to our transportation system It provides a functional hierarchy
of roadways for our community It looks at system improvements that will be required within
the community and looks at transit services that will be available and finally it looks at an
implementation program The chapter is divided into six sections the goals and policies the
land use MUSA staging and projections the existing systems the forecast alternate modes of
transportation or transit and implementation of goals and policies
Based on Metropolitan Council comments the City has revised the Traffic Analysis Zones figure
7 2 to reflect the Met council population households and employment projections
Issue Would it be possible to explain what is involved in a specific project and how it relates to
the other infrastructure improvements contained in the Plan October 16 2007 Planning
Commission Minutes pages 7 8
Response The individual chapters describe the proposed improvements Staff could expand the
spreadsheet in Chapter 10 Capital Improvement Program CIP of the Plan to link the various
improvements contained within a specific project For example the 2009 Lyman Boulevard
Transportation project consists of widening Lyman Boulevard to four lanes and would include
the 2009 Surface Water management street improvements the 2008 Water Lyman Boulevard
loop and the Parks Open Space Lyman Boulevard trail improvement projects The City
annually prepares a five year CIP which goes into great detail about a specific project That
document has greater accuracy and more detail then is appropriate in a comprehensive plan
Staff has provided copies of corresponding projects in the 2008 2012 CIP
Issue With bridges falling being in the news it might behoove us to put a paragraph in there
about that our bridges are in satisfactory condition
Response Bridges meeting the State of Minnesota definition are inspected according to the
National Bridge Inspection Standard and are typically inspected everyone to two years
depending on their condition
Issue Straightening Highway 101
Response The City is in the process of investigating funding for the required studies to realign
Highway 101 south
Issue The City of Eden Prairie has requested that the City designate Dell Road from Highway 5
north to the City limits as a Major Collector and Dell Road from Highway 5 south to the City
Limits a B Minor Arterial consistent with their proposed Plan Dell Road has a design speed of
35 miles per hour North of Highway 5 the daily traffic volumes in 2003 were 9 349 vpd and
5

Page 3
south of Highway 5 the daily traffic volumes in 2003 were 15 623 vpd Additionally the City s
Functional Classification Map shows Lyman Boulevard east of Highway 101 to the east City
limits as a Minor Collector but does not include the roadway in the narrative
Response Staff recommends that the Transportation Chapter be amended to designate Dell
Road from Highway 5 north to the City limits as a Major Collector and Dell Road from Highway
5 south to the City Limits a B Minor Arterial Additionally the Minor Collector narrative shall
include Lyman Boulevard east of Highway 101 to the east City limits
Sanitary Sewer Chapter 8
Synopsis Chapter 8 of the comprehensive plan is Sanitary Sewer The sanitary sewer plan
presents the existing sanitary infrastructure and the general location and size of future sanitary
sewer infrastructure under fully developed conditions
Issue The revised Metropolitan Urban Services Area MUSA phasing map represents a
significant change from the MUSA phasing plan contained in the 2030 Comprehensive Plan
Additional narrative should be included within the Plan explaining the basis for the change
October 16 2007 Planning Commission Minutes pages 12 15
Response A lift station on the Powers Boulevard extension south of Lyman Boulevard and
forcemain from this lift station along the Highway 212 corridor was identified during the last
Comprehensive Plan update During the 2030 Comprehensive Plan update it was determined
that timely development of the area directly south of the 2010 MUSA would be necessary to
provide financial payback for the considerable cost to install the infrastructure
Secondly the alignment of the forcemain along the old Highway 212 corridor has been shifted
Originally the forcemain and sewer would run north through the Bluff Creek Drive corridor to
the lift station on the Powers Boulevard extension The 2030 Comprehensive Plan update shows
the forcemain necessary to service this area within the Highway 101 corridor This change was
presented to reduce the depth of the trunk sanitary sewer
There is not enough developable land in the 2020 Comprehensive Plan for the 2010 MUSA to
carry us for five years There is a significant City investment required to extend urban services
and there is a need to expand the service area that may connect to the system in a timely manner
Additionally there are failing septic systems that should be replaced with a centralized sewer
system
The Planning Commission requested that staff have an additional neighborhood meeting to
discuss the MUSA phasing land use and Highway 101 Approximately 220 notices were mailed
to property owners of the meeting which was held on November 5 2007 in the Fountain
conference room in City Hall The meeting was well attended and it appeared that residents
questions were being addressed

Issue When we design for capacity are we going to be okay if our land use were to change
October 16 2007 Planning Commission Minutes page 20
Response The capacity for sanitary sewer and water was analyzed for that area the proposed
regional mall location and it was determined that medium density development would produce
higher sewer flows than a regional mall based on the preliminary information In addition
sanitary sewers are designed for peak flows not average flows so there is a factor of safety
intrinsic to the sewer design
Water Chapter 9
Synopsis Chapter 9 of the Comprehensive Plan is Water The water plan identifies the existing
trunk and lateral watermain and wells within the City The general alignment and size of future
trunk watermain and the general location of future well sites and future water towers is also
shown
Issue The City has experienced water supply drying up and we have had two wells go dry and
the aquifer s dropping Does the Plan address the state of the aquifer How are we going to
encourage future conservation or what kind of guidelines are we going to put in place October
16 2007 Planning Commission Minutes pages 17 19
We need to educate the public that you ve got to get these numbers down which means you may
not be watering your lawns as much anymore
Response The two wells that went dry were in a drift aquifer Drift aquifers are not as deep as
the main aquifer Future wells are not proposed within drift aquifers Staff is working with the
City Council to determine which conservation practices are most suitable for our community
Council adopted a tiered water rate meaning that the more water a customer uses the higher the
rate The City has an emergency management and conservation plan that the DNR is reviewing
The Plan consists of three parts water supply emergency response and water conservation
Attached is the water conservation plan being reviewed as well as the DNR response
We are applying for Minnesota Pollution Control Agency Educational Grant funds related to
water conservation

3 In 1999 the City acquired 32 acres containing a large woodland and wetlands which is
commonly referred to as the Fox Family acquisition This property was purchased for
preservation purposes using proceeds from the 1997 Park and Open Referendum The
area surrounding this parcel is slated to receive sewer and water services in 2010 What
work would the Council like to see from the Commission regarding the future
development of this park preserve
4 The City has not acquired land for ball field development in nearly twenty years The
last parcel purchased for this use was Bandimere Park in 1989 Athletic leagues in the
city especially youth baseball softball soccer football and lacrosse have experienced
large growth spurts since that time Requests for ball fields currently surpass the number
of fields available Future growth in these leagues will exacerbate this situation What is
the Council s position on acquiring additional land for ball field development
5 The City is known for its successful special events program including the Summer
Concert Series 4th of July Celebration Dave Huffman 5K Memorial Run Halloween
Party February Festival Easter Egg Candy Hunt New programs include the Chan Jam
and Kid s Sync Karaoke What are the Council s thoughts on the continued expansion of
our recreation and special events program
6 Are there projects that the City Council is currently working on that the Park
Recreation Commission could provide assistance
7 Do you have any questions discussion topics that you would like to discuss

tentatively set for May 19 2008 with
completion in 2009 The project is
increased traffic volumes on Lyman Boulevard
High School
A pedestrian underpass is proposed under Lyman Boulevard betweenA lldllbop Road North and South This underpass is a critical connection for the City sttail
system It will connect the new development areas south of Lyman in the 2005
MUSA to the existing trail system north of Lyman and to the High School A
trail is included in the project on the north side of Lyman Boulevard from Galpin
Boulevard to Audubon Road Soptll A 13Q boardwalk is planned to span a
wetland north of the trail underpass to direct pedestrians to the underpass rather
than the intersection of Audubon north and Lyman Boulevard

A new crossing for the Twin Cities and Western Railroad is proposed to match
the new roadway section New crossing guard arms roadway approaches and
sensors will be installed A signal pre emption system will be installed when a
train is approaching so the intersection at the signal will be cleared
An 18 trunk watermain will be installed from Galpin Boulevard to Audubon
Road South in conjunction with the High School improvements Most of the
watermain to be installed is included in the High School improvement project
The watermain will be installed in the Lyman Boulevard right of way An 18
trunk watermain from Audubon Road South to Audubon Road North is proposed
to be installed in conjunction with the Lyman Boulevard improvement project to
complete the trunk watermain looping system under Phase 1 An additional 8
stub will be installed on the east side of Audubon A portion of the cost for the
trunk watermain is proposed to be charged back to the future development as
connection charges Watermain and sewer services are proposed to be stubbed to
the Holasek property These costs are also proposed to be charged back to the
property as connection charges when the property develops Because of the
timing of the project and since the Lyman project is being lead by the County
going through an assessment process would be problematic
Four signal systems are included in the project at this time The existing signal at
Audubon Road CSAH 17 and Lyman Boulevard will be replaced A signal will
be added at Lake Hazeltine Drive and Lyman Boulevard and a signal will be
installed at the north entrance to the High School At this time an additional
signal has been added to the project at the intersection of Galpin Boulevard and
Lyman Boulevard that was not included at the time Council reviewed the plans in
February This signal installation should be contingent on the property owner to
the south of the intersection and the sole beneficiary of the south leg of the
intersection pay for this leg of the signal Also a right turn lane to this property
should also be installed in conjunction with the signal These costs should also be
passed on to the property owner Staff has been discussing these improvements
with the property owner but has not finalized an agreement
Most of the roadway improvements on Lyman Boulevard will take place during
the 2008 construction season A two month closure of Lyman Boulevard from
Audubon North to Audubon South is planned to complete soils correction and
install the box culvert pedestrian underpass This section of roadway is planned
to be reopened on or before September 1 2008 A significant amount of private
utilities will need to be moved prior to most of the soils correction work taking
place Lyman Boulevard from Galpin Boulevard to Lake Hazeltine Drive is
anticipated to be closed until November 7 2008 Access to Lake Hazeltine Drive
will be maintained throughout the project Detour of Lyman Boulevard is
planned for TH 10 1 east of Audubon Road and a detour on Galpin Boulevard for
the traveling public east of Galpin Boulevard

FUNDING
The roadway project will require right of way to be acquired to accommodate the
wider street width Carver County is completing a right of way plat for the
project The roadway agreement for the project stipulates Chanhassen and
Chaska will acquire the property Funding for the right of way is to be paid for as
stipulated in the roadway agreement The City of Chanhassen will be responsible
for 45 of the right of way costs Carver County 45 and the City of Chaska
10 The estimated cost for right of way is 900 000 Staff is currently
obtaining appraisals for the properties in Chanhassen At this time the only
properties that should need to be acquired are the properties at the intersection of
Lyman Boulevard and Audubon Road South CSAH 15 and the property directly
south of the intersection of Lyman Boulevard and Galpin Boulevard CSAH 19
The property owners have been made aware of the project and offer letters were
sent out on February 15 2008 In the event that a reasonable offer cannot be
negotiated a condemnation proceeding may be necessary for the project Staff
would like to avoid this option if at all possible but the City should keep all
options open Condemnation proceedings take approximately four months to
complete To keep the project on schedule a quick take is planned for early June
Funding for the project is proposed to come from several sources The City of
Chanhassen will be responsible for 45 of the project costs Carver County 45
and City of Chaska 10 for the section midway between CSAH 19 and TC W
railroad to midway between Audubon Road South and Audubon Road North
The City of Chanhassen will be responsible for 40 29 of the project cost Carver
County 40 29 and City of Chaska 19 41 for the segment west of the main
project area Chaska School District 112 will be contributing 1 000 000 to the
construction project and will be dedicating land The land value dedicated is not
included in the costs MnDOT has allowed Chanhassen s Municipal State Aid
MSA funds to be advanced three years for use on an off system corridor The
advancement of funds means the City will not have available funds until 2012 for

1 E APPROVAL OF MPCA GRANT APPLICATION RESOLUTION
Councilwoman Ernst Basically if I remember correct this is for the grant
Mayor Furlong Yes
Councilwoman Ernst So Paul maybe I think you re the person this question should be directed
to When you were talking about the City matching the dollars is that part of the request I
mean is that a requirement as part of the request to I think it was 28 000 was the cost of the
project
4
55
City Council Meeting January 14 2008
Paul Oehme Councilwoman Ernst the PCA grant application there has to be matching dollars from the city or in kind dollars associated with the grant application They want you to match
those dollar amounts and what the grant application what we put together is in kind monies so
basically our staff time would be considered matching dollars You know postage Seminars
that we re planning to give Those type of times and materials Those would go to our matching
dollars for the grant so out of pocket expenditures for the grant from the city s perspective would be we anticipate would be very minimal but we do need to show those in kind those matching
dollars
Councilwoman Ernst Okay And the amount that we could possibly get from that grant is
40 000 or if we got the grant it would be 40 000
Paul Oehme Right
Councilwoman Ernst That was a little bit unclear to me
Paul Oehme Yeah the amount the maximum amount that you can request from the PCA under
this grant application I think was right around 40 000 We re only requesting the 28 000 dollar
amount at this time so
Councilwoman Ernst Okay Thank you
Todd Gerhardt Mayor and Council just to clarify that Of the 28 25 would have to be in
kind or matching dollars and that would equate down to about 7 000 We re looking at postage
to do some mailings and things in the 3 000 to 4 000 range and the rest of our budget would be
in kind staff time Detailed distribution of services for this would come back to council Kind of explain how we would promote this program and that was one of our strategies for the year
Councilwoman Ernst Okay Thank you

1 F WELLS 12 13 IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS 08 04 08 05 APPROVE BID AND AWARD CONTRACT
Councilwoman Ernst So the actual bid came in at a 1 261 000 and our estimate was if I recall
correctly 20 000 under that
Paul Oehme Yeah approximately I think it was 13 000
Councilwoman Ernst So with the proposed rate cpg that we were cost per gallon that we
were talking about before does that impact that cost In other words I forget what the and this
may be unrelated and if so you can just let me know that but when we re talking about the cost of the wells Right that s what we re talking about here In order to cover that cost there was a
cost per gallon that we were going to propose to our residents and I don t recall what that
number was
Todd Gerhardt Mayor Council I believe the bid was over by about 20 000 There is another segment that we re going to have to build out the fresh what is it called Paul
Paul Oehme The raw watermain
Todd Gerhardt Raw watermain and that s about 850 000 We believe that with this slight overage we ll be able to absorb that into the overall budget and still keep the rates we were
proposing back in December
Councilwoman Ernst Okay Okay
Todd Gerhardt So the rates will not have to change because of this overage if that s the
question
Councilwoman Ernst Yep That answers it Thank you
Mayor Furlong Thank you Anything else Any other questions for staff on this item
Appreciate their moving it forward so expeditiously With that is there a motion to adopt item

VISITOR PRESENTATIONS
Mayor Furlong I d now like to I m going to now recognize our City Engineer Mr Paul Oehme
to introduce the gentleman from Barr Engineering
Paul Oehme Thank you Mayor City Council members Tonight we d like to give the council
and the viewing public just a brief update on where we stand with our well projects As you
know we re expeditiously trying to get two new wells drilled this winter spring and so we can
bring them into production this summer Tonight you have awarded a contract for the drilling of the two wells There s another associated well watermain project that need to go along with that
project that we anticipate letting out in February but at this time I d like just to have Brian
Lemont from Barr Engineering He s Barr is the contractor or the engineers working with the
city and putting the plans and specs together and helping us out with some construction
administration work as well so
Brian Lemont Thank you very much Paul and thank you for having me here Mayor and
Council I ll just go through real quickly the projects that we re working on for you right now
You can see back into your watering the schedules that I put in there are for a number of
projects The first listed up there is Wells 12 and 13 which are the actual replacements for Wells 5 and 6 which as you know had problems last summer There are two parts to the project As
you can see the first part being the wells themselves The contract that was just awarded and that
is scheduled for starting construction in February and the wells are planned to be in operation
around mid May The plans for all of these is to have all of the bugs worked out of everything st by June 1 so you guys are back in full back into watering the way you were the last year prior to losing wells 5 and 6 The second part of the project is the second part under here is the
watermain That s connecting the wells to your new treatment plant The projects were bid
separately to allow for the well construction to occur right away while the watermain the design
of the watermain takes a little bit longer so we re working on that right now Several other well
projects that are associated with the work that we re doing for you including the school well at Minnetonka Middle School which is being converted from a back up well used as kind of an
emergency lift to a primary well that is going to be your school well number 14 We re
currently working on the design for that right now You can see on there we have a number of th items listed on there The neighborhood meeting is planned for January 30 That s going to
happen after we discuss the project with the school board themselves so that they understand what s going to be happening to their property and to the well We don t want to be having
neighborhood meetings and promising what we can do prior to talking to them about what we re
going to be doing so we re going to do that first We re planning for a bid opening at the end of
February That s essentially that s construction and the drilling of the new wells which is Wells
12 and 13 It s simply modifications made to the existing well The schedule is a little bit shorter You can see awarding of the project will occur in March and substantial completion
again is slated for May As a part of that project there will also be a watermain running the water
from that well down to Well 7 and then on down to Galpin where it will be fed into your low
system You actually have a high system The work for Well 14 will also include some
7
58
City Council Meeting January 14 2008
rehabilitation work on Well 7 so that it will be completely up and ready to go That will also be th done by May 15 These are all going to be scheduled so that you re not going to have any fallout of water at any given time We can schedule them appropriately Anyway there s some
work with Wells 2 and 3 that is related to drilling of Wells 12 and 13 Because of the new wells
that are going to be going in here these well fields are the same aquifer as those wells There
will be a slight reduction of the water level at the existing wells so we will be going in and
actually dropping the pump levels in those two existing wells to make sure that the addition of the new wells does not interfere with and cause a reduction in capacity of those existing wells
And so that s what s shown on the bottom of redevelopment of Wells 2 and 3 Both of those
wells recently had as you may recall had some work done on them Well 2 I believe was
repaired last summer I believe you said had some work and Well 3 was redeveloped I think you
said 2 years ago And so it s only it s a very simple project It is not going to get a whole lot of work on the well itself as much as just lowering them down to make sure that the impact of
adding new wells doesn t reduce your water capacity Any questions
Mayor Furlong Thank you Any questions for Mr Lemont With regard to the Well 14 The
school well So that s going to the supply line there is going to be incorporated with Well 7 Which I believe is right along Lake Lucy Road there Is that correct
Brian Lemont Correct We re going to be bringing the water down from the school down the
hill The City owns the property owns the I don t know enough of the landmarks in the area but
there s a wooded lot that runs between the school and Well 7 We ll be running down that area the city owns that lot and we ll be directional drilling so you won t lose any trees in that area
And then we ll be running it right next to Well 7 where chemical additions will be added to treat
the water and then from that point if you re going to be routing it into your high system there ll
be valving that will allow the well to distribute water into the high system right at Well 7 And if
it s going to be routed into the low and that will be a choice of the operator to make then it will be run down to Galpin in an existing well watermain that is set up for the west treatment plant
and we ll be making as a part of this project a small connection to your existing low system down
at the intersection with Galpin and I m not even sure of the cross road there
Paul Oehme Lake Harrison Drive Right in front of the proposed west treatment plant Do you have the other drawing showing the
Brian Lemont I do
Mayor Furlong While you re doing that is the Well 7 s currently in the high zone is that correct
Paul Oehme That s correct
Mayor Furlong Is this going to create an opportunity for 7 to contribute to the low zone as well or is that not anticipated
8
59
City Council Meeting January 14 2008
Paul Oehme That s not anticipated at this time We do have another valving system at the
intersection of Galpin and Lake Lucy Road where we do have the opportunity right there to bring water from the high zone down to the low at this point in time
Mayor Furlong Okay regardless of which well is in the high zone is generating the water
Paul Oehme That s correct 8 or 7
Mayor Furlong Alright Okay
Brian Lemont I just had a quick question on the school well What kind of dialogue has taken
place with the school district on that Is there an agreement existing already or is it just
Paul Oehme Well the school well has some history When the school was put in that well was
drilled to facilitate the high school at that time but since then city water has been provided to the
school The school did not need that well for any use anymore so it was donated back to the city
Ever since then I think it was the mid 70 s it s been on the city s books and we really haven t used it much It pumps maybe 250 gallons at the maximum right now which on a municipal
producing well rarely ever have we used it for any purposes other than to just keep it operational
so at this point in time we just thought it d be a cost effective option to replace the well or the
pump at this time and actually make it into a municipal producing well so
Brian Lemont So the dialogue that s going to take place with the school you don t anticipate
that holding up the project
Paul Oehme No actually we have done the ground work at the staff level with the school
district and they re comfortable with we ve shown them the drawings of what we re planning already so they did not see any stumbling blocks at this time We should meet with the school
district though and make sure that they will support the project as well We would like to get a
permanent easement from them due to the fact that we need to extend some watermains across
their property so just some agreements associated with that
Brian Lemont Good thanks
Mayor Furlong Is the you show on there an existing 20 inch pipe that extends from Well 7
down towards the future site of the second water treatment plant Is that going to be sufficient to
handle both Well 1 and Well 7
Paul Oehme That will be sufficient to handle both the school well 7 8 in the future too That
will be
Mayor Furlong 7 8 and
Paul Oehme And the school well and potentially another well too That pipe was put in with
the development of Lake Harrison so the future improvements for the west water treatment
plant We planned for that pipe to be used as a water line in the future for that plant Right now
9
60
City Council Meeting January 14 2008
with the anticipated with the school well we were anticipating to use that right now for
distribution and then easily convert it back into a watermain in the future when the future water treatment plant is built
Mayor Furlong Okay very good Thank you Any other questions at this time on any of the
other issues brought up Councilwoman Ernst
Councilwoman Ernst Can you tell me if there are any risks associated with this project as you
continue to work on it
Brian Lemont There are always some risks
Councilwoman Ernst Okay can you tell me what those are I m just more curious to know if
we you know as we re doing this what are there any potential risks of losing water period in
those areas
Brian Lemont Now are you speaking specifically with the school well or any of the project
Councilwoman Ernst Any of the project
Brian Lemont The drilling of the new wells there s always a risk in that as I think you ve
learned in a couple of your other wells the geology of the area can vary from what you expect it to be The geology if always based on essentially the nearest well that has already been drilled
that looks that deep and so whenever you start drilling into a new area you could find a different
geology We re drilling down into one of the safer more reliable aquifers in the area so if we
should find the aquifer there which we thoroughly expect to find it there it will be a very
productive aquifer and should not have problems We ve done a significant amount of modeling and work in that aquifer over the years so we feel very comfortable with it So the risks are
reasonably low that we ll find the aquifer The problems that we ve had in the past or we do
have in the area are whether or not another bedrock formation is present over the top of the
aquifer You might notice that we had an alternate in the bid and that alternate is to account for
the possibility that that specific bedrock unit might be absent If it is absent and we cannot construct what s called an open hole well and those are slightly cheaper to build and so we have
an option that allows for the construction of a screen well and by having it in a bid situation we
got you a good fair prices on that option so that if you should need to go to that due to changing
conditions we already have prices for that So that s one of the types of risks There are other
kinds of risks but in wells drilling down finding the conditions that you would like are the greatest Another potential risk is an open hole well The Jordan Aquifer can become kind of
soft sometimes and so it can start to run What I mean by run is the hole can get larger than you
actually intend for it to be and it can take longer to complete the well I don t anticipate those
things to get to be a problem here and again if that were to be too much of a problem the screen
can be installed to prevent that as well so while there are risks I don t think that any of them are too significant On the school property depending on what you find what is down there I
know we ve already been televising and we ve done some test pumping on it it seems like a very
productive well and a very good well One of the risks on that might be in that it s such an old
well and it s been in place for such a long time and not used there s some potential for the cavern
10
61
City Council Meeting January 14 2008
to collapse During this project that we re going to be bidding we re going to have some test
pumping and some analysis then to try to analyze that potential and go with it Collapsing caverns by the way doesn t mean that you re going to have a big hole sink hole forming at the
surface It s just something that affects the well production but we don t believe that that s going
to be a significant problem and if it is we ll have the item to allow the contractor to deal with the
issue and
Councilwoman Ernst So if any of those conditions should happen to occur you have a plan as
to how to recover from those quickly
Brian Lemont The ones that we have anticipated yes There s always the possibility of the
unanticipated ones but the ones that we think based on the data we have at this time we believe we ve addressed the ones that we think are most likely to occur and we don t feel that any of
them are significant issues We believe in most cases the well should go in just fine
Councilwoman Ernst Thank you
Mayor Furlong Thank you Any other questions
Councilman Litsey Appreciate the update
Mayor Furlong Yes thank you Mr Oehme we appreciate it Seeing nobody else for visitor presentations we ll move on

DISCUSS CITY COUNCIL VACANCY
Mayor Furlong In December Governor Pawlenty appointed a member of our City Council
Craig Peterson to serve as our district representative for the Met Council As such Councilman Peterson sent an email to the city resigning his position on the City Council effective December th 26 of last year Earlier tonight as part of our consent agenda the council accepted his
resignation and effectively creating a vacancy on our council Earlier in the work session this
evening we discussed for the first time as a council what we wanted to do in terms of filling that
position Our options based upon state statute are to leave the position open appoint somebody and if we choose to appoint somebody to choose the process that we want to follow in terms of
appointing that replacement We were all in agreement that we wanted to go through an open
process and to seek applications from interested residents in that position And so what we
discussed tonight at least on a preliminary time schedule was to start seeking applications
Indeed beginning by the end of the day tomorrow put the information on the city s web site with regard to the application information and such like that for those individuals interested in serving
on the City Council We re interested in hearing from anybody who has an interest If you have
questions on it you re certainly encouraged to contact myself any member of the City Council
The City Manager Todd Gerhardt His phone number will be there You can send us emails
We d be happy to talk to you Answer any questions A tentative schedule or schedule at this point that we re moving forward with is we re going to advertise the opening in the Chanhassen thth Villager both this coming Thursday the 17 as well as the following week on the 24 and setting st an application deadline as of the 31 of this month The last day of this month That gives just
over 2 weeks I know that the Villager has done a good job of keeping residents up to date on
this but it will give us a couple weeks for those folks who do have an interest to inquire about it Submit a letter of interest and application Following that the City Council will meet in a work th session to review the applications and develop a plan of going forward on Monday the 4 of
February That s our schedule at this point We re anticipating at that meeting to identify those
candidates that we d like to interview for the position We re hoping to conduct those interviews
later that week and try to move forward diligently in terms of filling this open seat So at this point I guess I don t know that we need necessarily any motions or council action but I think
we re all in agreement with the schedule in terms of the deadline and trying to move forward
quickly so unless again the one thing that was pretty clear to me as a council we were very
interested in anybody that s interested in serving And if you have an interest it s a good
12
63
City Council Meeting January 14 2008
opportunity call us Learn about some of the issues coming up in the coming year I should
mention that this term the term of this seat does expire at the end of this year so it s effectively one year remaining on Councilman Peterson s term but to that end we have a number of issues
coming up this year and we re certainly interested in hearing from people that would like to
serve Any other thoughts or comments in summary or additions Okay Very good We look
forward to hearing from people and I know I expect anyway that it will be a difficult choice
because we will I m sure we ll have some very very very good qualified candidates
COUNCIL PRESENTATIONS None
ADMINISTRATIVE PRESENTATIONS
Todd Gerhardt Just a couple of things Mayor council members Lifetime Fitness has opened
it s corporate headquarters in Chanhassen I had the opportunity with Kate and a few staff
members to tour their new facility It s very nice inside and how they fit 400 employees in there
is unbelievable It s just going to be a great asset to our community and to our businesses to have
400 new people coming to Chanhassen to shop and nice just to have them here to support that industrial park and area businesses so we welcome them If you ve been over there and noticed
that their parking lot is full They haven t utilized the underground parking yet They re still
doing work and sealing concrete and finishing up some of the work inside there so you will see
some relief in the parking situation in the next couple weeks Second thing we had
Congressman Klein here a couple weeks ago to talk about some issues and road projects that we see going on in Chanhassen We also had a nice discussion with him regarding our
accomplishments You were all in attendance I think that was good feedback I think the
public would be interested in knowing that we meet with our representatives I m still working
with Representative Hoppe and Senator Ortman in trying to set up a similar meeting with them
and would expect to do that in the next couple weeks or so Some other exciting news that s happened is one of our legislative issues for the past couple of years this is to try to find funding
for the pedestrian underpass under Highway 41 We received notice that the TAC Board
Technical Advisory Commission to Met Council s TAB Board has selected Chanhassen as a
funded project for that pedestrian underpass so that s exciting news That s about a million
dollars that would come to the City of Chanhassen and Carver County we re co applicants in that application to build an underpass underneath Highway 41 to allow access to the Carver
Regional Park So our staff city staff Todd Hoffman will be working on with Carver County
on that project and completing the trail along Highway 41 that would take basically from the
middle school down to that pedestrian underpass and figuring out how to get a trail along that
roadway And if anybody s driven by there there s a little pond and some access issues there but we ll figure out a way to get that accomplished so that s a legislative issues we ve had going for a
couple of years Exciting news There is a local match of about 250 000 that we ll have to be
putting toward that project but still it s nice to get that access The neighborhoods in and around
that area are going to really appreciate the barrier free access into the regional park so we re
excited about that Snow plowing has been limited here so far in the new year We did send trucks out once here this past weekend so to clean off the streets We got a slight dusting there
but it was slippery and we thought it was important to get that cleaned off so that s it for my
update
13
64
City Council Meeting January 14 2008
Mayor Furlong Thank you Any questions for Mr Gerhardt
Councilman Litsey That s a great project That s good news
Todd Gerhardt Yeah We re excited The TAB Board has to confirm that yet That s usually
they go along with the TAC Board s recommendation but it sounds good
Mayor Furlong Good work Very good Thank you We ll look forward to future updates
CORRESPONDENCE DISCUSSION None
Mayor Furlong With that if there s nothing else to come before the council this evening we will convene immediately after the meeting as the EDA and then complete items unfinished
items on our work session following that
Councilwoman Ernst moved Councilman Litsey seconded to adjourn the meeting All

MEMORANDUM
TO Todd Gerhardt City Manager
Mark Uttfin Fire Marshal
April 28 2008 uf1
Private Fireworks Display at Lake Minnewashta on July 4 2007
FROM
DA TE
SUBJ
Staff has received a request from Americana Fireworks Display Company on
behalf of the Lake Minnewashta Fireworks Committee to conduct a fireworks
display from Minnewashta Regional Park on July 4th This application is similar
to what has occurred for the past seven years and it meets Fire Code regulations
The following conditions have been communicated and agreed to by all
concerned parties
1 If the wind is blowing from a northerly or westerly direction or points in
between where it could blow debris over the swamp area the show will
be cancelled or re scheduled to a pre assigned rain date This
information would be included in a flyer that is mailed to lake residents
by Beth Ginther coordinator of the fireworks The fireworks company
will be responsible for making the decision if the display should be
cancelled I will make this condition very clear to them
2 Carver County Parks Director Marty Walsh the fire chief s and I
would walk drive the site prior to July 4th to inspect the drop down zone
With a unified decision that if the swamp land did bum we county
parks and fire department would let it bum itself out There are natural
fire breaks already there We would patrol the perimeter and just
observe Actually we would be doing the park a favor by letting it bum
all the dead grass and weeds
A meeting with all concerned parties is planned in the near future As in the
past the Fire Department will have a stand by crew available at the site
Additionally the group has provided a 1 million liability insurance policy
covering this event
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of the request from Americana Fireworks Display
Company for a fireworks display permit on July 4 2008 at Lake Minnewashta
Regional Park with the conditions noted above Approval requires a simple
majority vote of those City Council members present

Liberty at Creekside
Planning Case 05 24
SUBJ
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The developer NDI Minnesota LLC is requesting another one year extension of
the preliminary plat for Liberty at Creekside to May 22 2009 This project was
originally taken through the development review process by Town Country
Homes However NDI Minnesota LLC has been the underlying property owner
NDI Minnesota LLC wishes to preserve the development approvals on the site The
extension is necessary due to the current depressed market conditions for residential
development and construction the lack of development on adjacent properties
through which access to this property must be made and a contractual dispute
between the property owner and Mr Jeurissen the former property owner
Section 18 41 of the Chanhassen City Code requires that the subdivider request final
plat approval within one year of the preliminary plat approval unless a request in
writing is submitted to the City requesting for good cause for an extension of the
preliminary plat Staff can attest to the slowdown in the residential housing market
Additionally the right of way from Bluff Creek Boulevard to the adjacent property
has not been dedicated and the recording of the final plat for the Pioneer Pass
development immediately west of the site has not been completed which included
the right of way providing access to this property
The City and developer worked diligently to create a well designed project with
diverse housing styles There have been no amendments to the City Code that
would adversely affect the conditions of approval for the Liberty at Creekside
development All the conditions of approval shall remain in force for the
development All fees were specified as those in effect at the time of final plat
approval Staff is recommending approval of the applicant s request for a one year
extension to May 22 2009
BACKGROUND
On May 29 2007 the Chanhassen City Council approved a one year extension to
the preliminary plat

Request for Extension
Dear Mr Generous
On behalfofNDI Minnesota LLC I am writing to request a one 1 year extension of the
preliminary plat approval for the Liberty at Creek Side development which I understand
would extend the current approval to May 22 2009 This extension is necessary in light
of current depressed market condition impacting residential development and
construction lack of development on adjoining and nearby parcels and a contractual
dispute between NDI MN LLC and Mr Jeurissen
Please let me know if you have any questions or require additional information to support
the requested extension
Very truly yours

MEMORANDUM

FROM
DATE
Todd Gerhardt City Manager
Todd Hoffman Park and Recreation Director
April 28 2008 o
SUBJ Approval of Change Order 1 Lake Ann Park Picnic Shelter
The Lake Ann Park Picnic Shelter project is 75 complete and staff expects it
to be completed and open to the public by mid to late May Several decisions
have been made since the start of construction that has resulted in a net increase
of 16 802 40 in the cost of the project These decisions were made with the
best interests of the community as our top priority and staff recommends that the
City Council review and approve these proposed changes
The first item is a recommendation to delete all seeded areas including the
related erosion control blanket in favor of installing sod on all disturbed soils
around the perimeter of the project It is our desire to be in a position to open
the shelter to the public immediately upon receiving a final approval on the
building permit By utilizing sod in lieu of seed our residents and other visitors
will not have to battle muddy soils in the midst of their picnic
The second item involves our response to the delivery of a shelter building that
is approximately 20 feet longer than the one we specified in the plans In lieu of
rejecting the larger shelter it is our recommendation that we accept the shelter
from the manufacturer at no additional cost but compensate the contractor for
the materials needed to accommodate installation of the larger shelter
specifically two concrete footings 310 ton of granular base and 530 square feet
of concrete slab
The final addition is 77 square feet of concrete slab to accommodate the full
complement of portable restrooms we plan to provide with the shelter A
detailed list of the two deducts and five additions currently being recommended
is attached
RECOMMENDA TION
It is recommended that the City Council approve change order 1 to the Lake
Ann Park Picnic Shelter project in the amount of 16 802 40 resulting in a total
project contract due Sunram Construction of 252 718 40 Approval of this
change order requires a simple majority vote of those City Council members
present

Fire Investigations There are two house fires currently under investigation The first happened on
Monday March 24th at 6 58 p m in the Timberwood neighborhood The cause ofthe fire is focusing on
a heat exchanger unit that was used in conjunction with the furnace There was a meeting last Monday
April 14th on site with representatives from the insurance companies as well as the manufactures of the
heat exchange unit The Fire Department is done with our investigation at this time It is up to the
mechanical and electrical engineers to determine if the unit failed and caused the fire The insurance
company was very impressed with the Fire Department in preserving the fire scene and the evidence left
from the fire for the engineers to inspect Fire personnel stayed at the house all night after the fire for
security reasons and to watch for a possible rekindle

Kwik Trip Building Architecture
On March 10 2008 the City Council approved a site plan for 5 300 square foot convenience
store with gas pumps and a 2 805 square foot car wash Buildings 4A on Lot 1 Block 1
Crossroads of Chanhassen One of the conditions of approval for this request stated Staff will
work with the applicant to improve the architecture of the car wash and gas station convenience
store to make them more compatible with the buildings in the overall development The item
will be brought back at the time of final plat approval for approval by the City Council
The applicant submitted revised plans The buildings have incorporated elements that are found
on other buildings in the development One of the main elements that can be seen on all
structures in the development is a tower element at the comer of each building The architect has
introduced this feature to revised architecture The following is a comparison between the
elevations

Existing Wetlands
One jurisdictional wetland exists on site Westwood Professional Services delineated the
wetland on October 17 2007 The wetland delineation was reviewed by the City of Chanhassen
on October 22 2007 The delineated boundary was determined to reflect the jurisdictional extent
of the wetland There has been no change from the December 14 2007 submittal No wetland
impacts are proposed or likely to occur as a result of the proposed land use change
A wetland buffer 16 5 in width and a 30 foot setback from the wetland buffer must be maintained
around the wetland Wetland buffer areas should be preserved surveyed and staked in accordance
with the City s wetland ordinance That portion of the wetland buffer adjacent to the proposed
earthwork should be planted in a suitable native seed mix The applicant must install wetland buffer
edge signs under the direction of City staff before construction begins and must pay the City 20
per sign The current plan set reflects this need

While secondary structures are allowed to encroach into the setback by up to 50 of the setback
width it appears that a portion of the retaining wall adjacent to northern retail building in Lot 2
extends beyond the allowed 50 encroachment During a meeting with the developer and the
consulting engineer it was requested that efforts be made to move the wall easterly so it does not
exceed the 50 allowed encroachment No change has been made to this depicted
encroachment nor has any argument been presented as to why this encroachment is unavoidable
The applicant needs to either move the wall to minimize the encroachment to 50 of the setback
or provide an acceptable argument as to why this is not possible Any encroachment of an
accessory structure beyond 50 will require a variance
Vegetation currently within the buffer does not meet the minimum requirements for buffers in
Chanhassen At a minimum that portion of the buffer adjacent to the proposed earthwork needs
a vegetation management plan to address the abundance of non native plant species As
commented in February a suitable BWSR mix still needs to be called out for the buffer area
The W5 mix shown in the setback would be suitable
LAKE BLUFF ZONES
The proposed project is not within any shoreland district There are no bluff zones located on the
property
EROSION AND SEDIMENT CONTROL
A NPDES Phase II Construction Site Storm Water Permit will be required from the Minnesota
Pollution Control Agency MPCA for this site A Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan
SWPPP will be required in conjunction with this application The SWPPP should be provided
to the City so it can be reviewed by the Carver Soil and Water Conservation District prior to the
preconstruction meeting for the project
The creation of the temporary settlement basin and ditch to route water is encouraged as shown
As commented on the February 7 2007 SWPPP to avoid confusion clearly indicate the extent of
the ditch or add a note to indicate what area should be drained by the ditch and that it should be
conveyed to the temporary sediment basin In the event that this is to be field located by the
contractor this should be noted on the plan along with a statement that the SWPPP must be
revised to show the routing as well as the BMPs employed to control erosion and sediment
deposition
The ditch shown along T H 101 needs to have erosion control blanket or adequate ditch check
for at a minimum the final 200 feet prior to discharging to the north into the T H 212 right of
way
The remaining erosion control measures and timing of BMPs appear adequate However if at
any time during the construction of the site prior to final stabilization these measures are found
to be inadequate additional BMPs will be required to meet the NPDES permit All exposed soil
areas shall have temporary erosion protection or permanent cover year round according to the
following table of slopes and time frames

that discharge to a surface water as has been indicated
The rock construction entrance and appropriate details have been included with the plan set Any
deviation from these details must be submitted to the City for approval and documented in a
SWPPP amendment
Include the following contact information on the SWPPP Terry Jeffery Water Resources
Coordinator City of Chanhassen 952 227 1168 In addition see the comments provided by the
Carver County SWCD included in the conditions of approval and incorporate into the plan
SURFACE WATER MANAGEMENT PLAN SWMP CONNECTION CHARGES
Water Quality Fees
Because of the impervious surface associated with this development the water quality fees for this
proposed development are based on commercial development rates of 17 AOO acre Total area less
that portion in Outlot A including future Lot 1 Block 2 and Lot 2 Block 2 and right of way
equals 6 99 acres Therefore the water quality fees associated with this project are 121 626
Water Quantity Fees
The SWMP has established a connection charge for the different land uses based on an average
citywide 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
Commercial developments have a connection charge of 6 280 per developable acre This results in
a water quantity fee of approximately 47 671 80 for the proposed development areas discussed
above
SWMP Credits
This project proposes the construction of one NURP pond The applicant will be credited for
50 of the water quality charge for each acre draining to the NURP pond on site All developed
land will be diverted to the MN DOT pond When Lot 1 and 2 of Block 2 are developed a
SWMP credit will be issued at that time
At this time the total SWMP fee due payable to the City at the time of final plat recording is
169 297 80

OTHER AGENCIES
The applicant shall apply for and obtain permits from the appropriate regulatory agencies e g
Minnesota Pollution Control Agency Minnesota Department of Natural Resources for
dewatering and comply with their conditions of approval
GRADING AND DRAINAGE
The 14 9 acre site is located south of the newly constructed Highway 312 and northwest of the
intersection of the recently re routed Highway 101 and Lyman Boulevard This site consists of a
wetland on the west side with pasture type vegetation on the east The Minnesota Department of
Transportation MnDOT completed grading on this site with the construction of Highway 312
and Highway 101 Old Highway 101 was the only structure on this site but has been removed
with the construction of Highway 312 The utilities that were present where the Old Highway
10 1 was located are still in place and will help to service this development
Existing drainage is divided into three main areas The first drainage area which is
approximately 10 percent of the site drains towards Lyman Boulevard and Highway WI
Another drainage area approximately 50 percent of the site is on the east side of Old Highway
101 and previously drained north along the ditch of Old Highway 101 and into a low area where
the newly constructed Highway 312 is located The third drainage area is approximately 40
percent of the site west of Old Highway 101 and drains into the existing wetland
There are three proposed drainage areas for this site The first drainage area approximately 5
of the site drains the grassy area between the southern retail building and Lyman Boulevard
The second drainage area approximately 55 percent of the site will drain into MnDOT s
BraeBurn Pond This pond was constructed with the offramp of Highway 312 and has been
designed to treat up to 12 acres from this site The total area being treated by the BraeBurn Pond
is 11 37 acres The final drainage area approximately 40 percent of the site will discharge into
the existing wetland All impervious surface runoff from this drainage area will have stormwater
treatment prior to discharge to the wetland
The berm between the existing wetland and the newly constructed Highway 312 has been
experiencing seepage issues Due to these issues MnDOT required the developer to control
runoff rates to the wetland to existing conditions The developer provided calculations meeting
this condition
Storm sewer sizing and calculations have been provided Adjustments to the storm sewer are
needed on the public street These adjustments will require revised calculations for the storm
sewer sIzmg
A permit is required from the appropriate agency for any off site grading If importing or
exporting material for development of the site is necessary the applicant will be required to
supply the City with detailed haul routes

RETAINING WALLS
The proposed retaining walls are as follows
Location Length approx Maximum Height approx
East side of the wetland 400 feet 9 feet
The retaining wall along the existing watermain has been removed A retaining wall will not be
constructed with Phase 1 of the project because this area is in an outlot When this property is
developed in the future more information will be known about the tenants of the proposed
buildings and the amount of area needed Building the wall in the future will help to minimize
the size of the wall
Building permits are required for all retaining walls four feet tall or higher and must be designed
by a Structural Engineer registered in the State of Minnesota
UTILITIES
The developer proposes to extend lateral sanitary sewer watermain and storm sewer within the
development The trunk sanitary sewer storm sewer and watermain within the public right of
way or along the Old Highway 101 corridor shall be publicly owned and maintained All other
utilities will be private and must be covered by a cross access agreement Proposed watermain
will extend from the existing watermain which bisects the site The proposed watermain will be
a lO inch loop extending from the existing watermain having a total length of approximately 970
LF The connections to the existing watermain must be wet tapped Sanitary sewer for this
development will extend from the existing trunk sanitary line which bisects the site
Utility plans shall show both plan view and profiles of all utilities sanitary sewer water and
storm lines Actual elevations of existing utilities shall be verified for accuracy
Each new building is subject to sanitary sewer and water hookup charges The 2008 trunk
hookup charge is 1 769 for sanitary sewer and 4 799 for watermain Sanitary sewer and
watermain hookup fees may be specially assessed against the parcel at the time of building
permit issuance All of these charges are based on the number of SAC units assigned by the Met
Council and are due at the time of building permit issuance
Prior assessments for sewer and water were paid by the State of Minnesota
All of the utility improvements are required to be constructed in accordance with the City s latest
edition of Standard Specifications and Detail Plates The applicant is also required to enter into a
development contract with the City and supply the necessary financial security in the form of a
letter of credit or cash escrow to guarantee installation of the improvements and the conditions of
final plat approval The applicant must be aware that all public utility improvements will require
a preconstruction meeting before construction commencement Permits from the appropriate

regulatory agencies will be required including the MPCA Dept of Health Carver County
Watershed District and MnDOT
EASEMENTS
A lO foot drainage and utility easement has been provided along all public right of way The
utilities remaining in the Old Highway 101 right of way are covered by roadway utility
easements MnDOT plans to turn this property over to the City At the time of vacation of these
easements a new easement will be required to cover any utilities not covered by the proposed
right of way The proposed pond and existing wetland in Outlot A is covered by a drainage and
utility easement The County s storm sewer which is west of the proposed public right of way
will need to be covered by a drainage and utility easement
STREETS
Access to the site from the Highway 312 ramp is currently governed by MnDOT MnDOT has
agreed to grant this access as long as it is a public street and is completely constructed before the
opening of this access point MnDOT also has ownership of the Old Highway 101 property
The City has started the process of getting this land turned back but it is unclear at this point
when this will happen The developer will need to work with the City and MnDOT to secure
access to the site and acquire the Old Highway 101 land
The second access to the site is from Lyman Boulevard a County road The intersection of the
new public road and Lyman Boulevard does not meet Carver County s access spacing for a
traffic signal If traffic volumes in the future grow significantly on Lyman Boulevard a traffic
signal will be an unlikely solution for solving backups at the intersection of Lyman Boulevard
and the proposed public street The County would likely convert this intersection to a three
quarter or right in right out by blocking some of the turning and or thru movements
A public street will service this development and must be designed to Minnesota State Aid
Standards Maintenance of this street will be provided by the City The width of this street will
be 32 feet and will be wider near the intersections with Highway 101 and Lyman Boulevard to
accommodate turn lanes The public street connection on Highway 101 must align with the lanes
provided by the construction of the off ramp of Highway 312 The required 60 foot right of way
for a commercial street has been provided A turn lane will be required for the entrance into
Kwik Trip
A traffic study has been submitted by the developer and reviewed by the City s traffic consultant
The public road design has been found sufficient for this development Standard road width for
commercial development is 36 feet The reason for allowing the 32 foot width is because this is
not a typical public street serving a commercial area and 32 feet will be sufficient to handle the
anticipated traffic Narrowing the street will also have a benefit of making the road feel tighter
for motorists which will cause them to drive more cautiously No parking will be allowed on
this public street
177

Upon completion of the public street the applicant shall submit a set of as built plans signed
by a professional civil engineer
Collector and Arterial Roadway Traffic Impact Zone fees will be collected with the final plat
This fee is for areas within the City where new developments will impact major roadway
systems that the City has identified for improvements The fee will be based on the commercial
rate of 3 600 per acre
Remaining street assessments are approximately 66 900 These assessments must be paid prior
to final plat
The applicant is showing a sidewalk along the east side of Crossroads Boulevard The plans
shall be revised to incorporate a sidewalk along the west side of Crossroads Boulevard as shown
on the preliminary site plan Sheet 5 of 10
MISCELLANEOUS
Encroachment agreements are needed for the signs located in drainage and utility easements
