SUBJ: Preliminary Plat Extension, Summit at Near Mountain,
ILundgren Brothers
On September 13, 1989, the City Council approved the preliminary
I plat for Summit at Near Mountain (Lundgren Brothers) . The
preliminary plat is valid for one year by which time the final plat
must be submitted to and approved by the City Council.
IMike Pflaum from Lundgren Brothers Construction has requested an
extension to the preliminary plat approval. Summit at Near
Mountain is a phase of the Near Mountain/Trappers Pass PUD which
I was to follow development of Trappers Pass 4th Addition. Due to
the reduced demand for upper bracket housing, development of
Trappers Pass 4th Addition will not begin until this fall, which
Ifurther pushes back development of Summit at Near Mountain.
The City Council has granted extensions to preliminary plat
I approvals when circumstances do not allow the development to
progress as soon as planned. Since Lundgren Brothers are
developing the property in a timely manner and the market for
housing has slowed down, staff has no objection to extending the
Ipreliminary plat approval.
Recommendation
IPlanning staff recommends that the City Council adopt the following
motion:
11 "The City Council recommends approval of preliminary plat
extension until January 13, 1992 for Summit at Near Mountain."

Re: Summit at Near Mountain (Amendment of the Near Mountain P.R.D.
Preliminary Plat and Final Development Plan)
' Dear Paul:
' Earlier this year, I submitted the attached petition for an extension
of the Preliminary Plat and Final Development Plan approval which
Lundgren Bros. Construction was granted for subject project on
September 13, 1989.
' In the time which has since elapsed, land development financing has
become extremely difficult to obtain and demand for executive bracket
1 housing has softened. As a consequence, Lundgren Bros. has delayed
commencement of Trappers Pass at Near Mountain 4th Addition until late
fall , at the earliest, and will be unable to consider proceeding with
the Summit project before 1991.
I accordingly herewith petition the Chanhassen City Council to extend
the approvals it granted on September 13, 1989, until September 13,
' 1991, or for so long as the appropriate ordinance will permit.
Very truly yours,
' LUNDGREN BROS. CONSTRUCTION, INC.

Re: Summit at Near Mountain (Amendment of the Near Mountain P.R.D. '
Preliminary Plat and Final Development Plan) •
Dear Paul: ,
On September 13, 1989, the Chanhassen City Council approved Lundgren
Bros. Construction's proposed amendment of the Near Mountain P.R.D. to
substitute 43 large single family lots for 114 multi-family attached
living units.
A provision of the Chanhassen Subdivision Ordinance, I believe, ,
stipulates that if a final plat is not filed within six months of the
City Council action approving the preliminary plat, the approval of
that preliminary plat is rescinded.
Inasmuch as development of Summit is dependent upon the extension of
utilities and streets through Outlots A and C of Trappers Pass at Near
Mountain 3rd Addition, an area we are only now preparing to develop,
it would be decidedly premature for Lundgren Bros. Construction to
file a Summit final plat by March 13, 1990, the last day before its
preliminary plat approval would expire.
We accordingly herewith request that Chanhassen approve the maximum
extension of the deadline for the filing of the Summit at Near
- Mountain final plat which its ordinances will permit.
Very truly yours,
LUNDGREN BROS. CONSTRUCTION, INC.
