On June 14, 1999, the City Council approved site plan #99-4 for two office warehouse buildings
with an area of 19,632 square feet each, to be located on Lots I and 2, Block I, Chanhassen
Lakes Business Park 7th Addition, as shown on the plans dated April 16, 1999, revised June 4,
1999, subject to conditions. On April 27, 2000, staff signed off on a building pennit for the
subject site with the understanding that this was an office warehouse type tenant. On May 17,
2000, staff was asked to sign off on the Certificate of Occupancy for Mr. Beniek. Mr. Beniek is
known to city staff as an owner of a business that deals with mowing/upkeep of lawns in the
summer and snow removal in the winter. Under the zoning ordinance, such operation qualifies
as a contractor's yard and requires a conditional use pennit in the lOP district. Mr. Beniek gave
notice to the place he currently occupies and was ready to move into the new space when we
infonned him that a Conditional Use Pennit is required. This created a problem with storage of
his equipment. Mr. Beniek needed to vacate his current location and move to the subject space
prior to the timeline when the city can process the conditional use pennit. To resolve this matter,
staff sent Mr. Beniek a letter explaining that we will issue temporary occupancy of the site,
contingent upon City Council approval of the conditional use pennit application. This item will
be scheduled for June 26, 2000, City Council meeting. Temporary occupancy will be pennitted
until June 30, 2000. At that point, the conditional use pennit must be approved and recorded
with Carver County. Should the City Council deny the request, Mr. Beniek must vacate the site
no later than June 30, 2000. We also explained that the temporary occupancy pertains to the
Conditional Use Pennit approval only. It by no means, waives any Site Plan Agreement or
Building Code requirements prior to temporary occupancy.
PROPOSAl. SITMMARY
The applicant is requesting conditional use pennit for a contractor's yard to occupy the middle
section of a 19,632 square foot office warehouse building.
.
The zoning ordinance defines contractor's yard as "any area of use of land where vehicles,
equipment. and/or construction materials and supplies commonly used by building, excavation,
roadway construction, landscaping and similar contractors are stored or serviced. A
contractor 's yard includes both areas of outdoor storage and areas confined within a completely
enclosed building used in conjunction with a contractor's business. ..
Mr. Beniek operates a business that qualifies as a contractor's yard. Such use is pennitted as a
conditional use in the Industrial Office Park District.
The office - warehouse building is currently under construction and is located on Lot I, Block I,
Chanhassen Lakes Business Park 7'h Addition. The site is zoned lOP, Industrial Office Park. A
contractor's yard is a conditional use in the lOP District. The site is bordered by Lake Drive West
~; '~)i;:;
Beniek Property Services, Inc.

Page 3
to the south and Audubon Road to the west. Access to the site is gained via a driveway off of
Lake Drive West. The lot area of the contractor's yard site and office building is 2.05 acres.
The proposed area of the contractor's yard is 5,000 square feet. A portion of the space (576
square feet) will be used for office space and the rest will house equipment associated with the
business. All equipment is proposed to be located within the building. There is an entrance door
that was added along the west elevation and a loading dock along the east elevation. The loading
dock is located between two buildings and screened from views.
In sununary, with the incorporation of staff recommendations, the proposed conditional use pennit
meets ordinance requirements, and staff is recommending approval with conditions outlined in the
staff report.
C'ONOITION A I. ITSF. PERMIT
Contractor's Yards are pennitted in the lOP District as a conditional use. The following
constitutes staffs review of this proposal against conditional use pennit standards.
GENERAL ISSUANCE STANDARDS
1. Will not be detrimental to or endanger the public health, safety, comfort,
convenience or general welfare of the neighborhood or city.
FINOINr. _ The site is zoned lOP. The proposed use will not create any significant or
unexpected impacts from this operation.
2. Will be consistent with the objectives of the city's comprehensive plan and this
chapter.
.
FINOINr. - The proposed use is consistent with the City Comprehensive Plan. The city
approved a site plan for the site without variances and found that it is in

FINOINr. - Full city services are available to this site. Roads serving the site are fully
capable of handling the access needs of this proposal.
6. Will not create excessive requirements for public facilities and services and will not
be detrimental to the economic welfare of the community.
FINOINr. - Staff is not aware of any excessive requirements for public facilities.
The landscape and snow removal business is a good auxiliary use for the
industrial park.
7. Will not involve uses, activities, processes, materials, equipment and conditions of
operation that will be detrimental to any persons, property or tbe general welfare
because of excessive production of traffic, noise, smoke, fumes, glare, odors, rodents,

FINOINr. - The site plan is well designed and is under construction. All equipment
will be stored inside the building. There will not be any visible signs of a

consistent with its designation. It will not depreciate surrounding property
values.
12. Will meet standards prescribed for certain uses as provided in this article.
FINOINr. - N A
Based upon the foregoing findings, staff is recommending that the conditional use pennit be
approved with appropriate conditions.
PI.A NNINr. C'OMMISSION IJPOA TF.
On June 6, 2000, the Planning Commission reviewed and approved this application unanimously.
The commission asked staff if this was the right location for a contactor's yard. We believe this
type of use belongs in an industrial park. A second question dealt with the noise generated from
snow removal and its impact on the residential neighborhood to the south. Staff explained that
the nuisance ordinance does not apply to snow removal since this is something that has to be
done in order to access the site. We also explained that there is an adequate separation between
the site and the residential neighborhood. ·

Dear Mr. Beniek:
This letter is to explain the status of the certificate of occupancy for 1578 Lake
Drive West, located on Lot 1, Block I, Chanhassen Lakes Business Park 7'h
Addition and zoned Industrial Office Park District (lOP).
The business you conduct is classified as a contractor's yard. Such operations
require a conditional use pennit approval prior to occupancy in the lOP District.
It is our understanding that you need to vacate your existing premises and move to
the above referenced space prior to the timeline when the city can process the
conditional use pennit. It is our intention to allow temporary occupancy of the
site, contingent upon City Council approval of your conditional use pennit
application. This item will be scheduled for the June 6, 2000 Planning
Commission meeting and June 26, 2000, City Council meeting. Temporary
occupancy will be permitted until June 30, 2000. At that point, the conditional
use permit must be approved and recorded with Carver County. Should the City
Council deny your request, you must vacate the site no later than June 30, 2000.
The temporary occupancy pertains to the Conditional Use Pennit approval only.
This action, by no means, waives any Site Plan Agreement or Building Code
requirements prior to temporary occupancy.
.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at ext. 120.

PUBLIC HEARING:
REOUEST FOR A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR A CONTRACTOR'S YARD TO
OCCUPY 5.000 SOUARE FEET OF AN OFFICE WAREHOUSE BUILDING ON PROPERTY
ZONED INDUSTRIAL OFFICE PARK (lOP) AND LOCATED ON LOT 1. BLOCK 1.
CHANHASSEN LAKES BUSINESS PARK 7TH ADDITION. BENIEK PROPERTY SERVICES.
INC.
Sharmin AI-Jaff presented the staff report on this item.
Peterson: Questions of staff.
Blackowiak: Mr. Chair I have a couple questions. One of the general issuance standards Sharmin,
number 7 talks about hours of operation. And I'm concerned that, especially with snow plowing, hours
of operation are going to be when it snows. Which mayor may not be during the general business hours.
Do you feel that that is a concern at all to the neighbors directly to the south specifically? I'm looking
more at the residential neighbors.
AI-Jaff: There is a park that will separate them from this site. You have complete trees approximately
60 feet. The houses are located probably 200 feet to 300 feet from those buildings...
Peterson: Motion for a public hearing.
Kind moved, Burton seconded to open the public hearing. The public hearing was opened.
Peterson: This is a public hearing. Anyone wishing to address the commission, please come forward and
state your name and address please. Motion to close.
.
Kind moved, Sacchet seconded to close the public hearing. The public hearing was closed.
Peterson: Commissioners, any thoughts?
Kind: I like the idea of it being totally enclosed. I think it's great.
Sacchet: I went out there looking at it because it didn't show an elevation offthe back side ofthe
building and how it looks like the loading dock and especially like a good size garage door all the way to
the ground level. It won't accommodate any really huge equipment and it was pretty neat. I don't think
it's an issue.
Blackowiak: And as long as the snow plowing issue is addressed, and actually kept to the noise
ordinance, then I'm comfortable. That's my big concern.

Planning Commission Meeting - June 6, 2000
Peterson: Actually most of those kinds of services, as it indicates with this one. The drivers take the
vehicles home so they're not even at the site. They're in somebody's tront yard. I'll entertain a motion
please.
Burton: Mr. Chainnan, I'll move that the Planning Commission recommend approval of Conditional Use
Pennit #00-3 to allow a contractor's yard in an lOP district, Beniek Property Services Inc. to be located
on Lot I, Block I, Chanhassen Business Park 7'h Addition as shown on the plans detailed received May
17,2000 subject to the conditions I through 3 shown on the staff report.
Blackowiak: Second.
Peterson: It's been moved and seconded. Any discussion?

Conditional Use Permit #00-3 to allow a contractor's yard in an lOP District, Beniek Property

I. The applicant shall enter into a conditional use penn it agreement with the city.
2. Compliance with conditions of site plan and plat approval.
3. There shall be no outdoor storage of any equipment associated with the contractor's yard.
All voted in favor and the motion carried unanimously.
Peterson: Kate, I don't know ifSharmin's going to stick around for the flag lot presentation but if you
are, I'd like to hold on the flat lot til Ladd's here.
Aanenson: Yeah. I think there's other people here waiting for that. It does have a lengthy history in the
city so I think you're probably right. It'd be important that we have everybody here.
Peterson: And then the fact that Ladd was the number one person that had asked about it so I think it's
important to do that so I apologize to those people that are here that are waiting for that, ifthere are.

Aanenson: Did you hear that? They would like the full Planning Commission to be here so they're
going to table the discussion later on on the flag lots.
Audience: For how much later on?
Aanenson: Two weeks.
Audience: So would the Igel Addition come before or after the flat lot discussion.
Aanenson: IfI can interject. It would be moot because you'd have to go through an ordinance change.
This is just a, there was a question on edification so if they were to recommend a change, it would still
have to go through a public hearing process. So they wouldn't be tracking together.
