conditions. Notice of this public hearing has been mailed to all property owners within 500 feet.
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 Subdivision 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.

PROPOSA~UMMARY
The applicant is proposing to subdivide 2.77 acres into 6 single-family lots. The property is zoned
RSF, Residential Single Family, and is located north of Fox Hollow Drive, west of Highway 101,
and south of Pleasant View Road.
The site contains a single family home which is proposed to be demolished.
Access to the site is currently
gained via a driveway off of
Highway 101. This driveway
will be closed and a street off of
Fox Hollow Drive will serve the
subject site. On April 16, 1984,
the City Council approved the
Fox Hollow Subdivision. The
plat included a 50 foot right-of-
way to facilitate the future access
into the subject site. As a result,
the street width of the cul-de-sac
that will serve this site will
maintain a 50-foot width. The
city code requires 6O-foot right-
of-way width. Staff directed the
applicant to apply for a street
width variance. The roadway
width (31' back of curb to back of
curb) will comply with the city
code. All lots are proposed to be
served via proposed Fox Drive.

The average lot size is 15,452
square feet with a resulting gross
density of 2.16 units per acre and a net density of 2.8 units per acre.
All of the proposed lots meet the minimum area, width, and depth requirements of the Zoning
Ordinance. Lots 1 and 4 meet the requirements of the ordinance; however, staff expressed concern
to the developer about the width of these lots. Specifically, both lots become extremely narrow
toward the rear lot line. The developer provided plans for a home that he has built in the past which
will fit on these lots without variances.
There are no wetlands on the site. The site has some mature trees.
In summary, staff believes that the proposed subdivision is well designed. Minor revisions will be
required. We are recommending that it be approved with conditions outlined in the staff report.

PRELIMINARY PLAT
The applicant is proposing to subdivide a 2.77 acre site into 6 single-family lots. The density of the
proposed subdivision is 2.16 units per acre (gross) and 2.8 units per acre (net) after removing the
road. All the lots exceed the minimum 15,000 square feet of area, with an average lot size of 15,452
square feet.
All of the proposed lots meet the nnmmum width and depth requirements of the Zoning
Ordinance. Staff expressed concern about lots 1 and 4, specifically the width of these lots. The
applicant provided plans of a residence with a three car garage that will fit on these lots without
variances. The applicant also provided hard surface calculations for Lot 4, Block 1 to
demonstrate that the impervious coverage will remain under 25%.
Staff notes that the proposal is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and generally consistent
with the Zoning Ordinance.
WETLANDS
No jurisdictional wetlands exist on this property.
GRADING. DRAINAGE & EROSION CONTROL
Grading
The existing site has tree cover over approximately 1.5 acre of area. The plans propose to grade
about 80% of the site for the new house pads, public street and cul-de-sac. The proposed grading
will prepare the site for two look-out and four full basement house pads. The grading plan shows
that, on average, the pad areas are being filled three to five feet for the new homes. Also,
additional grading will take place south of the parcel to connect the proposed street with Fox
Hollow Drive and to expand the existing storm pond. Staff is recommending that a small (1 '-3')
retaining wall be installed along the western right-of-way of Fox Drive south of the site. This
will alleviate the steep slopes in the area and provide room for a boulevard area in back of the
curb for snow storage. The applicant must be aware that any grading on privately-owned
property will require a temporary easement. If importing or exporting material for development
of the site is necessary, the applicant will be required to supply the City with a detailed haul
route and traffic control plan.
Drainage
The existing site drains from the northwestern comer to the southeastern comer of the parcel.
Under developed conditions, all of the drainage from the house roofs, driveways and the cul-de-
sac will be conveyed via storm sewer to the existing stormwater pond. A storm water quality
pond exists adjacent to the site on Outlot A, Fox Hollow. Outlot A is owned by the City of
Chanhassen. Staff is recommending this pond be expanded to provide water quality treatment
for the proposed development. The pond should be maintained to ensure it meets the size and
volume standards to which it was originally designed. Any inlet and outlet structures on that
pond requiring maintenance or replacement should be maintained or replaced.
Fox Den Subdivision
Planning Case No. 05-08
March 15,2005
Page 4
The existing outlet of this pond is a 24" corrugated metal pipe (CMP) with no trash guard or
skimmer to control potential floatables and it is not designed to prevent short-circuiting of the
system. An outlet meeting National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permanent storm
water management system requirements (NPDES Permit MN Rl0000l, Section C, Subsection
ID, Page 11 or 26) should be installed. The pond is required to be designed to National Urban
Runoff Program (NURP) standards.
The applicant has submitted drainage calculations for the site and only minor changes remain.
Prior to final platting, storm sewer design data will need to be submitted for staff review. The
storm sewer will have to be designed for a lO-year, 24-hour storm event. Drainage and utility
easements will need to be dedicated on the final plat over the public storm drainage system
including ponds and drainage swales up to the 100-year flood level. The minimum easement
width shall be 20 feet wide.
Grading and Erosion Control Note 15 states that dewatering will be done from the top of the
water column. A floating Faircloth skimmer or another preapproved method should be used.
The flow route, distance to receiving waters and name of receiving waters of the storm water
basin and dewatering activities are needed on the plan. A detailed dewatering plan is needed
with method, rate, and erosion and sediment control considerations, such as energy dissipation.
At the March 15, 2005 Planning Commission (PC) meeting, the PC requested staff to
explore possibilities of an alternate pond design using available space within the existing
pond outlot property. Specifically, staff was asked to look at utilizing the available upland
area in the southeast corner of the pond outlot. This corner of the outlot property contains
the existing neighborhood development sign. Staff has explored this option with the
developer's engineer. If this area were excavated for the pond construction, the existing
development sign would have to be moved to another lot within the development. Staff
does not believe that any lot owner would want the development sign on their property.
Also, the area in the southeast corner of the outlot is not large enough to contain the entire
pond storage volume that is required. For these reasons, staff is not in favor of revising the
pond design from what is proposed on the current plans.
Erosion Control
Geotextile or gravel bed and riprap are needed for energy dissipation at the existing and
proposed flared-end inlets to the storm water pond and the outlet of the pond on the east side of
Hwy 101. If the right-of-way for Fox Drive is going to be mowed within the first year, the
Category 3 blanket should be replaced with staked sod. The netting of the blanket could pose
problems for lawn mowing until the netting biodegrades.
Erosion control blanket shall be installed on all slopes greater than or equal to 3: 1. All exposed
soil areas shall have temporary erosion protection or permanent cover year round, according to
the following table of slopes and time frames:
Type of Slope
Steeper than 3: 1
10:1 to 3:1
Flatter than 10: 1
Time
7 days
14 days
21 days
(Maximum time an area can
remain open when the area
is not actively being worked.)
Fox Den Subdivision
Planning Case No. 05-08
March 15, 2005
Page 5
These areas include constructed storm water management pond side slopes, and any exposed soil
areas with a positive slope to a storm water conveyance system, such as a curb and gutter system,
storm sewer inlet, temporary or permanent drainage ditch or other natural or man made systems
that discharge to a surface water.
Sediment Control
A detail for the catch basin (CB) sediment control is needed for the CB between Lots 2 and 3. A
Wimco-type inlet control is recommended. An alternative could be monofilament silt fence with
metal T -posts and I y," rock berm 2 feet high and 2 feet wide.
Street cleaning of soil tracked onto public streets shall include daily street scraping and street
sweeping as-needed.
Surface Water Management Fees
Water Qualiiy Fees
Because of the impervious surface associated with this development, the water quality fees for this
proposed development are based on single-family residential development rates of $1,093/acre.
Based on the proposed developed area of approximately 2.77 acres, the water quality fees associated
with this project are $3,028.
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. Single-
family residential developments have a connection charge of $2,705 per developable acre. This
results in a water quantity fee of approximately $7,493 for the proposed development.
SWMP Crediis
This project proposes the expansion an existing NURP pond off-site. Because the pond is off-
site, it is not eligible for credit. However, credit will be given for the replacement of one outlet
structure ($2,500).
At this time, the estimated total SWMP fee, due payable to the City at the time of final plat
recording, is $8,021.
Other Agencies
The applicant shall apply for and obtain permits from the appropriate regulatory agencies (e.g.,
Riley-Purgatory-Bluff Creek Watershed District, Minnesota Pollution Conttol Agency (NPDES
Phase II Construction Permit), Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (for dewatering),
Minnesota Department of Health, Minnesota Department of Transportation) and comply with their
conditions of approval.

UTILITIES
The plans propose on extending the sanitary sewer from an existing sanitary manhole in Fox
Drive. Water will be extended from an existing watermain along the east side of the site and
looped with the watermain in Fox Hollow Drive. The sanitary sewer and watermains will be
considered public utility lines since they will serve more than one lot. As such, a minimum 20-
foot wide easement will be required over the watermain that is outside of the right-of-way.
Installation of the private service utilities for the site will require permits and inspections through
the City's Building Department.
According to the City's Finance Department records, the parcel was previously assessed for one
sanitary sewer hookup and that assessment has been paid. As such, the sanitary sewer hook-up
charge will only be applied to five of the six new lots. However, the water hookup charge will
still be applicable for each of the new lots. Since the developer will be responsible for extending
lateral sewer and water service to the lots, the sanitary sewer and water connection charges will
be waived. The 2005 trunk hookup charge is $1,458 for sanitary sewer and $2,955 for water-
main. Sanitary sewer and water-main 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.
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 building permit issuance. Permits from the appropriate
regulatory agencies will be required, including the MPCA, Dept. of Health, MnDOT, and
Watershed District.
STREETS
The plans propose to extend Fox Drive from the south side approximately 370-feet ending with a
cul-de-sac. The required right-of-way for a new public street is 60-feet wide with a 60-foot
radius for cul-de-sacs. The existing platted right-of-way for Fox Drive south of the site is 50-
feet. For continuity with the existing Fox Drive
right-of-way, the applicant is proposing a 50-foot
wide street right-of-way and a 60-foot wide cul-
de-sac radius. Staff is in favor of the applicant's
proposal for this right-of-way variance.
PARK DEDICATION
COMPREHENSIVE PARK PLAN
This site is wholly within the neighborhood park
service area of North Lotus Lake Park. This park
offers a wide variety of amenities including tennis

courts, ball fields, a children's playground, picnic shelter, lighted hockey and open skating rinks,
open space and a walking trail. Residents of Fox Den will access the park via Fox Hollow Drive.
It should be noted that sidewalks are not available in Fox Hollow. No additional parkland
dedication is required in this area of the City; therefore park dedication dollars will be required in
lieu of land dedication for the five new lots (5 lots X $4,000 per lot = $20,000).

Three of the six lots (4, 5 and 6) have direct access to a section of the city's comprehensive trail
plan. This eight-foot wide city trail is located parallel to State Highway 101 on the eastern edge
of the subject property. The other three lots will access the trail via Fox Drive and Fox Hollow
Drive. No additional trail construction is being recommended as a condition of this
development.

Developer does not meet minimum canopy coverage allowed, therefore the difference between
the baseline and proposed tree preservation is multiplied by 1.2 to calculate the required
replacement plantings.
Difference in canopy coverage (42,231-23,185) 19,046 SF
Multiplier 1.2
Total replacement 22,855 SF
Total number of trees to be planted 21 (22,855 + 1089)
The total number of trees required for the development is 21. Applicant has proposed a total of
20 trees. All replacements must meet minimum size requirements. No more than one-third of
the trees may be from anyone species. All 21 trees shall be planted within the proposed
development. A revised landscape plan will be required prior to final approval.
The subdivision is also required to have bufferyard plantings along Highway 101. Requirements
are as follows:
Location
Hwy. 101- bufferyard B
- 20' width
240' len th
Re uired
5 overstory trees
7 understory trees
12 shrubs
Pro osed
4 existing ash trees
4 overstory trees
3 ever reen trees
The applicant does not meet the minimum requirements for bufferyard planting along Highway
101. Staffrecommends that the minimum quantities be met.
In reviewing the tree inventory, staff would like to note that many of the elm and boxelder trees
specified on the inventory are actually green ash. This makes a difference since green ash will
not succumb to Dutch elm disease as the elm will and it isn't considered an 'undesirable' tree as
boxelders are. For these reasons, preserving as many of these trees as possible will help to make
this development more appealing. Green ash are generally tolerant of construction and should do
well through the process.
Also of note on the tree inventory is the absence of some existing trees along the south property
line. At least 4 green ash, 2 of which are double-stemmed, are not shown on the tree inventory.
These trees are located between the existing shed and the south property line. These trees plus
trees #142-144 should be protected during construction and remain on site. Staff recommends
that the silt fence be installed in front of all of these trees prior to grading in order to preserve
them during development. When the building permit for Lot 1, Block 1 is submitted, these trees
will be re-evaluated for preservation.
The applicant is expanding the pond on city property and in doing so will be removing a number
of evergreen and deciduous trees. Staff recommends that the applicant be required to plant
boulevard trees along Fox Drive and Fox Hollow Drive to replace the city trees lost. To create a
partial buffer for Highway 101, staff recommends that evergreens be considered for the
boulevard trees along Fox Drive.

Re: Fox Den
Ms. AI-Jaff:
The SWCD has taken the opportunity to review the 6-lot subdivision Fox Den. The plan reviewed is
dated 1/20/05. Please review and consider the following corrunents and suggestions regarding erosion
and sediment controls and stonnwater / dewatering concerns.
Erosion Control
--Geotextile or gravel bed and riprap is needed for energy dissipation at the existing and proposed flared-
end inlets to the stonnwater pond and the outlet ofthe pond on the east side of Hwy 101.
--If the area of the ROW adjacent to 10 Fox Hollow Drive is going to be mowed within the ftrst year, the
Category 3 blanket should be replaced with staked sod. The netting of the blanket could pose problems
for lawn mowing until the netting biodegrades.
Sediment Control
--A detail for the CB sediment control is needed for the CB between Lots 2 and 3. A wimco-type inlet
control is recorrunended. An alternative could be monoftlament silt fence with metal t-posts and 11/2"
rock benn 2 feet high and 2 feet wide.
Stonnwater / Dewatering
1. In Grading and Erosion Control Note 15, it states that dewatering will be done from the top ofthe
water column. It is recommended to use a floating Faircloth skimmer or another preapproved method.
2. The flow route / distance to receiving waters and name of receiving waters of the stonnwater basin and
dewatering activities are needed on the plan.
3. A detailed dewatering plan is needed with method, rate and erosion / sediment control considerations
such as energy dissipation.
4. The existing outlet is a 24"CMP with no trash guard or skimmer to control potential floatables nor is it
designed to prevent short-circuiting of the system. An outlet meeting NPDES Pennanent Stonn Water
Management System Requirements is needed for this project. (NPDES Permit No. MN RIOOOOl, Section
C, Subsection ID. Page 11 or 26).
If there are any questions or if! can be offurther assistance please contact the SWCD offtce.

Dear Sharrneen:
I submitted to you, Matt Saam, Jill Sinclair, and Lori Haak, on Thursday, March 3, 2005,
a document titled "Fox Den Preliminary Plat Issues." I have made some modifications to
this document and I do not wish to include it as an attachment the Staff Report to the
Commission.
I have enclosed the revised document for your review and comment. This revised
document should be included with the Staff Report to the Commission and I ask that it be
included as an attachment to that Report.
Thank you.

Fox Den
Preliminary Plat Issues
To the PlaDDiDI!: CommissioD. PIaDDiDI!: Staff. aod City CouDcll Members
With any proposed development, there are several real impacts. Although aware that
development is always a potential in any area, it must fit in with the area and it must
consider the existing conditions currently in that community, and work in cooperation
with the affected parties. There are several problems with this development's proposal
and there are several inconsistencies with the Chanhassen City code, especially how they
relate to Landscape & Tree Preservation. There are also several potential inadequate
design or premature practices proposed as it relates to the proposed pond expansion. All
of these must be solved before the development should go forward. For these reasons, we
can not respectfully support the proposed development at this time. We would suggest
that the Preliminary Plat be redesigned and resubmitted for consideration. Five areas will
be addressed in this statement (1) Landscape & Tree Preservation (2) Surface Water
Management & Proposed Pond Expansion (3) Grading and Erosion Control (4) Streets
(5) Proposed Plat Alternatives
I. Landscaping & Tree Preservation
Sec. 18-61 (d)(2) of the City ofChanhassen code states:
Prior to the submittal of development plans. a tree survey of t/w site shall be prepared by a registered
landscape architect. licensed forester. or ot/wr professional approved by t/w city. This survey shall include
t/w species. DBH size (DBH means diameter measured at breast /wight. four and jive-tenths ftet above t/w
ground). condition. location of all trees over six inches in diameter and any damaged or diseased trees on
site. All significant special. damaged or diseased trees shall be tagged and identified by number on t/w
survey. A delineation of the existing canopy coverage area(s} which outlines all areas covered by tree canopy
shall be included as part of t/w survey. Additionally. all damaged and diseased trees shall be cataloged with
t/w nature and extent of any damage or disease specified
Response: There are several trees that are missing from the Tree Inventory/Survey
submitted by the developer. For instance, there is a tree immediately to the East of tree
number 144 that is not listed. This tree has
two trunks (see picture left):
There are also three trees south of the existing
shed and between the wooden fence of the
property of20 Fox Hollow Drive (see picture
below)
1
""
~
~
"~ ..
~1''M II,
""1 "
that is not listed on the tree inventory. Even if all other trees are accounted for, then these
omissions cause incorrect canopy coverage statistics.
Also, it is unclear whether or not the developer can count the trees in their tree inventory
on the Outlot A sight because Outlot A is not on 6500 Chanhassen Rd. The Outlot is
located in a PUD, it is also subject to different zoning conditions.
Sec 18-61 requires the species of each tree. However, only the genus name is listed on the
inventory (e.g. pine, maple). Species requires the person conducting the inventory to
establish the scientific name such as Norway Pine or Sugar Maple.
Trees #142 &143 could be considered boundary line trees. The tree trunks begin either on
the line or slightly North of the property line between 10 Fox Hollow Drive and 6500
Chanhassen Road. The trunks cross the boundary line, and continue to grow into the
property owner's yard of 10 Fox Hollow Drive (see picture left):
The current and previous owners of 10 Fox Hollow Drive
have maintained these trees by, but limited to, (1) raking
the leaves that fell into the backyard of 10 Fox Hollow
Drive (2) Incurring the costs to dispose of the leaves that
fell ÍÌ'om the trees to the appropriate disposal sites in
Carver County. The leaves fell ÍÌ'om the limbs and
branches that grew out ÍÌ'om the trunks that were clearly
located on the property owner of 10 Fox Hollow Drive.
Holmbergv. Bergin, 172 N.W. 2nd 739 (Minn 1969)
establishes the definition for boundary trees. A tree is a
boundary tree if it was planted jointly or treated as
common property by agreement, acquiescence, or course
of conduct. The course of conduct clearly establishes the
fact that the owners of 10 Fox Hollow Drive co-own the
tree with the owner of 6500 Chanhassen Road.
Additionally, the tree could not be considered a nuisance since by its nature, it is not
patently offensive, causing ill will or health, or damaging to the property of others. Even
if the nuisance argument could be remotely posed,
2
""
-"'"".
Section 18-61 (d)( 4) provides for relief:
Minimizing the tree loss should be achieved by any combination of the fol/owing:
a. Realignment of streets, utilities and lot lines.
b. Consideration of alternative utility configurations such as the use of ejector pumps. force maills. or
revised home elevations to minimize grading.
c. Reductions in roadway width and right-ol-way and increase in street grade up to ten percent when the
applicant can demonstrate that significant tree preservation is directly related to the modification.
d. Use of private streets in lieu of public streets.
e. Variation in street radius and design speed
f Modified grading plans.
Resoonse: The property owners of 10 Fox Hollow Drive strongly request that the
developer and the City should propose implementing modified grading plans, and
realignment of internal lot lines of the proposed development to accommodate the
property owners request regarding saving trees 142, 143, & 144.
2. Suñace Water Management & Proposed Expansion of the Storm
Water PondlWetland/Outlot AlUtility and Drainage Easement.
Background: The developer is proposing a significant increase to the size of the pond
located at the comer of 101 and Fox Hollow Drive. The developer states that the increase
in storm water runoff warrants the increase of the size of the pond. Although there will be
some increases in storm water runoff, there are other issues that need to be addressed and
solved first before automatically increasing the size of the pond. The current pond area is
24,900 square feet or .57 acres. This area is just the area where the water currently is.
This appears to be an adequate enough area, given the other issues that need to be
addressed in this section. There are others things that can be done to limit the increase in
impervious surface. There needs to be a critical analysis of the proposed storm water
pond design, and also a thorough review of the NRCS TR-55 methodology or other
methodology used as the design methodology of the pond and the proposed expansion.
We propose an independent engineer be hired. Given the issues below, we maybe rushing
to judgment to expand the pond to such a design that clearly conflicts with proper storm
water pond design criteria. There are several problems increasing the size of the pond by
a significant size and outmoded design, without addressing other issues first. A strategic
expansion of the pond in certain areas is would be the more prudent course of action.
Additionally, any further expansion should focus more on expanding the length rather
than the width.
The Storm Water Management Program (SWMP) has been in place since 1994. In a
memo to Todd Gerhardt wm Lori Haak dated September 21,2004, in reference to the
SWMP she writes "the 1994 plan is out of date." The City has hired an outside consulting
firm SEH to review the SWMP. Among its area of focus are (1) water quantity and
qnality (2) inspection of every public storm water structure (3) comprehensive wetland
management program (4) revised storm water and wetland management ordinance (5)
protocols for inspection and maintenance.
3
d
""
1""1\
Furthermore, in the memo, it states "the vertical element (z coordinate) will allow the
City to employ detailed storm water modeling techniques to anticipate, assess, and
resolve surface water issues and problem areas."
Based on 1994 standards, this development mayor may not be premature as it relates to
storm water management. At the very least, consideration must be given to an outdated
SWMP and how it relates to the proposed expansion of the pond.
Issue 1: Design of the Pond. I would refer the planners and commission members to a
couple of web sites. www.cigolden-vallev.mn.us/environment/vonding.htrn (contact AI
Lundstrom 763-593-8046) and www.state.ri.us or search for "the State of Rhode Island &
Storm Water Manual." I'm sure Minnesota has similar protocols. Generally speaking,
there are several things to keep in mind when designing an effective storm water pond.
(1) Ponds are generally three times as long as wide
(2) There is a 3:1 minimum ratio along the flow path between the inlet and outlet (these
requirements allow for polluted sediment more time to settle before the outlet pipe
releases the water).
(3) The forebay length to width ratio should be a Minimum of 2: 1 with a preference for 3
to 1. The condition and design of the forehay (between the pipe inlet and the main pond)
is critical. It should be 4-6 feet deep. This is the main area where polluted sediment is
filtered out.
Response: The proposed pond will be nearly as wide as it is long. According to the
resources and experts that I have cited, this design is generally not a very effective
design. Although a larger pond may in some cases filter out more pollutants, if it is not
designed correctly, it will cause more harm than good. The 3:1 ratio between the outlet
and inlet is not maintained. There are questions about the condition of the current forehay
and its design. Furthermore, there is not other development along 101 (North of 5) that
would have such a large pond next to the road. For safety issues, if a car were to go over
the side of the road, or if a pedestrian were to slip down the embankment into the pond,
there could be serious liability issues for the City. 101 is a very busy road. Creating such
a large body of water next to the road is not a good idea. At the very least now, barriers
should be installed.
Issue 2: According to the experts, natural landscaping should be in place around the
pond (see attachment to the paper). This should include bushes, natural grasses, and
shrubs because these stabilize the pond by preventing erosion, preserves an environment
for microorganisms that remove pollutants, improves pond's appearance by hiding debris,
creates an environment for dragonflies which eat mosquitoes, discourage geese from
visiting and contributing to pollution through their droppings, making the pond less
attractive for wading and
swimming.
Response: The South and
West end of the pond is
mowed grass. It does not
-¡
""
""'"
have natural habitat of bushes, natural grasses, and shrubs. It invites geese (which are a
constant nuisance and populate this pond in significant numbers) to further pollute the
water. The existing embankment to the North has bushes, natural grass, and shrubs. It
provides for a natural buffer. It is in line with how storm water ponds should be designed.
An expansion of the pond would remove all of existing area to the North with no planting
of natural grasses, bushes, and shrubs (or that is how the landscape plan is submitted).
(See pictures above and below):
Furthermore, by entirely eliminating the North end of the pond, this removal would be in
direct conflict with section 18-61 (dXl)
It is a policy of the City of Chonhassen to protect the inJegrity of the natural environmenJ through the
preservation. protection, and planting of trees. The city finds that trees provide many benefits including: stabilization
of the soil by the prevention of erosion and sedimentation. reduction of storm wate,. runoff and the costs associated
therewith, ¡mprovemenJ of air quality. reduction of noise pollution. control of urban heal island effict. protection and
increase of property values, protection of privacy. energy conservation through natural insulation, control of drainage
and restoration of denuded soil subsequent to construction and grading. protection from severe weather, providing
habitat for birds and aIM,. wildlife. conservation and enhancement of city's physical and aesthetic environment,
reforestation of open lands. and general protection and enhancemenJ of the quality of lift and general welfare of the
city. It is therefore the purpose of this section to provide regulations related to the cuning. removal. or killing of trees
on construction and development sites and to ensure the protection and preservation of the natural environment and
beauty of the city.
ResDonse: All of the trees will be eliminated in the current plan. Some of the most vital
ones (conifers) reduce noise pollution and headlight impacts on a year round basis from
the traffic on highway 10.1. These conifers protect the privacy of the first homes along the
entry of Fox Hollow Drive. By removing the mature conifer trees, you remove the
element of privacy. The proposed replacement planting are mainly deciduous in nature
and do not maintain their leaves for 6 months of the year, thus drastically reducing the
potential buffering effect. They do not provide good protection from visual impacts,
noise, and protect privacy like large conifer trees do. Additionally, these large trees
reduce storm water runoff and control drainage--especially right next to a storm water
pond. By eliminating the trees around the pond, it exacerbates and creates additional
runoff. The trees are also habitat to birds and other small animals. In eliminating the
5
i
""
I""
trees, you not only create additional problems but you also eliminate the aesthetic
benefits that they provide, and the potential increase in property values they pass on to
members of the Fox Hollow community (see pictures below)
Furthermore, the pond
outlot is located in the
Planned Unit
Development (PUD) Fox
Hollow. There are
different codes that
apply to developments in
a Single Family
Residential (RSF) zone
compared with a PUD.
The pond outlet and the
trees and area to the
North of the pond
provide necessary
buffering from the visual impacts from collector highway 10 I. Section 20-1176. Intent,
scope, and compliance address these requirements.
(j) Buffiring s/wll be provided between high inlensily and low intensity uses, between a site and major
streets and highways. and in areas where buffering is required by the comprehensive plan. Such br4Jèring
shall be located within a required huffir yard The huffir yard is a unit of yard together with the planting
required thereon. The amount of/and and the type and amount of planting specijiedfor each huffir yard
required by this subsection are designed to ameIiorOle nuisances between a4jacent land uses or between a
land use and a public road The planting units required of huffir yards have been calculated to ensure that
they do. in fact. fimction to "huffir. "
(Jj Buffir yards shall be located on the outer perimeter oj a lot or parcel extending to the lot or parcel
boundary line. except where easements. covenants or 1UltUraJ features may require the buffer yard to be set
back from the property line. Subject to review and approval by the city engineering department. huffir yards

that are compatible with the typical city boulevard planting requirements may be locaJed within a portion of
an existing municipal public collector or arterial right-aI-way.
Additionally,
(/)(8) In instances in wmch the city deems it necessary to provide year-round screening. the city may
designate that all planting be of conifers.
(g) The city shall encourage reforestation through boulevard and streetscope planting.
(h) Mature stands of trees shall be preserved.
The landscaping and tree replanting plan submitted by the developer does not adequately
address the loss of buffering that an expansion to the pond and the loss of the stands of
conifer and long line of deciduous trees will cause. In fact, the developer only proposes to
three deciduous trees and two conifer trees in this area and these plantings are dozens of
feet trom 101. The City should insist on the developer complying with Section 20-1176
(f)(8) as it relates to the ponding area.. The City should also insist that additional
reforestation occur through more boulevard and streetscape planting on the South and
West side of the pond area.
Issue 3: Pond Maintenanee and Statistics
As discussed in issue 1 above, a larger pond is not necessarily a more effective pond. If
natural landscaping is not included as part of the design, then the pond effectiveness to
filter out pollutants is decreased significantly. An additional area that needs to be fully
examined is pond maintenance and the statistics associated with this particular pond
regarding its effectiveness. There are several questions that the City and the developer
need to answer:
(1) Can the City provide documentation as to what the pond water quality is and what it
has been in the last 5 years trom this pond?
(2) Have there been any water test results that indicate that runoff rates do not meet water
quality standards?
(3) Can the City state what it has done in the the last five years to control sediment in the
pond? According to the Fox Hollow file maintained by the City of Chanhassen, in 1984
when Outlot A was being established, one of the main concerns was sediment. In a
March 13, 1984 letter trom Stanley Wendland trom the U.S. Dept of Agriculture to Bob
Waibel, it is stated:
"... the plans for providing ponding areas should include a provision for removing trapped sediment. ..
(4) When was the last time the outlets, inlets, ditches, and culverts associated with this
pond were cleared and cleaned?
(5) When where the last time the catch hasins were cleaned?
(6) What are the water reading depths over the last five years? Is the pond too shallow?
Too full? If there is evidence that it is trapped with sediment and too full, can it not be
dredged?
(7)If the pond is expanded, what happens if the pond becomes too shallow?
(8) Is drainage trom the pond an issue, and if it is, what is being done to solve it?
(9) When was the last time the formula was evaluated for storm water runoff?
(10) How many homes does this pond serve?
7
,.,."
~
Given the fact that the SWMP is out of date and given the fact that the City may not have
effective and up-to-date protocols for evaluating water quality, storm water run-off
issues, an outdated storm water ordinance, outmoded protocols for maintenance and
inspection, it maybe premature to declare that this pond has to be increased by such a
significant size. The recommendation would be to focus intently on Issues 1-3 and as a
last result expand the size of the pond by no more than 10"10 (if even necessary). Proper
pond design, natural landscaping, maintenance, inspection, and drainage from the pond,
are the best ways in the short to long terms to address the issues associated with this
pond. A small expansion of the pond without fully implementing and addressing all of
the issues raised in 1-3 fails to address the real issues with storm water pond management
and storm water runoff. The inlet pipe from the West of Fox Drive should run at a 45
degree diagonal under Fox Drive and then enter into the existing storm water pond on its
West side.
Furthermore, the City needs to seriously look to adopting, for future developments, the
potential to use the practice of Low Impact Development (LID). The City should provide
financial incentives to developers, perhaps initially as a pilot project, to use LID as the
way to handle storm water management issues in the future. The SEH consulting firm
will probably make this as one of their recommendations. I would refer interested people
to www.lowimpactdevelopment.org and www.tahomaaudobon.org for information on
this landscape storm water management concept. LID has reduced the size of storm water
ponds sizes by 75% while still retaining open spaces and dry basements. Construction
costs could be reduced by up to 20%. Retaining vegetation and reducing road width and
impervious surfaces is the key. Search the web for a title of a document conducted by
CH2MHILL from Bellevue, Washingtion called "Pierce County Low Impact
Development Study." See also Wisconsin's Natural Resource Magazine
(www.wnrmag.com/supps/2003/feb03/stem.htrn).
3. Grading and Erosion Control
According to the Preliminary Grading and Erosion Control Plan, the developer is
requesting that the existing fence at the North and East ends of the 10 Fox Hollow Drive
be removed by the property owners of 10 Fox Hollow Drive. The existing grading plans
call for extensive grading right up to and potentially on to the property of 10 Fox Hollow
Drive. The extensive proposed grading plans for the area around the pond are not
necessary for the reasons stated in the previous pages.
Response: Steeper slopes typically increase the rate of erosion. One impact of land
development is soil compaction which decreases soil infiltration and ground water
recharge, which contributes to storm water runoff.
3:1 grading is too excessive. That is the maximum. A 3:1 grading slope would make the
house and the lot at 10 Fox Hollow Drive appears that it is "higher" off the ground than
the other homes in the area. The lot and the home would appear aesthetically out of place
with the excessive grading. The lot and the home would appear if it were sitting on a
8
""
~
"crown." It is recommended that the natural swales and slopes be maintained as much as
practicable to the East and North of the 10 Fox Hollow Drive property.
In a survey commissioned by the property owners of 10 Fox Hollow Drive, the wooden
fence located to the East of the existing home is entirely on the property of 10 Fox
Hollow Drive, it does not enter the right of way. The property owners are not going to
remove the wooden fence on the East side of their home for any reason nor grant the
developer an easement to perform excessive grading. Furthermore, the property
owners of 10 Fox Hollow Drive do not know and are not aware that the irregular shaped
or wire fence is their property or who installed the wire fence The current owners of 10
Fox Hollow Drive do not know where the developer obtained the information or drew the
conclusion that the wire fence belonged or was put in place by the owners of 10 Fox
ijollow Drive. The owners of 10 Fox Hollow Drive do not have an objection to the future
removal of this fence only if (1) if the developer does not damage the existing wooden
fence (2) the developer disposes of the fence (3) the developer does not damage any trees
in the removal of the fence. The property owners oflO Fox Hollow Drive find the
grading plans extensive, intrusive, and unnecessary as it relates to their property line on
the East. Potential damage to the property is probable and the grading will not benefit
them. Additionally, the owners have serious concerns about the closeness of construction
equipment, traffic, insurance and workers compensation issues as they relate to potential
earthwork on or near their property. Furthermore, special assessments should not be
passed on to the owners of 10 Fox Hollow Drive. They are not going to benefit uom the
grading but their privacy and property lines are going to be severely disturbed.
4. Streets
According to the Preliminary Plat, a 31 foot wide road will be going in right next to the
property of 10 Fox Hollow Drive. The width of the may be consistent with the other
street widths, but it is excessive for the area that it is proposed. The closeness of Fox
Drive to 10 Fox Hollow Drive and to the pond is of great concern for safety and aesthetic
concerns. A 31 foot wide road ending in a cul-de-sac greatly increases the impervious
surface and thus increases runoff which is unnecessary. The developer and City would
save costs by going to a 24 foot wide street, it would also create more lot area, reduce
impervious surface, create less runoff, and fit in better with the area. The proposed road
would only serve 6 homes. There are other alternatives.
Resoonse: Research shows that narrow streets are the safest. For example, a study
conducted by Swift Associates and the City of Longmont Colorado looked at 20,000 car
accidents over 8 years.
TIle study found: "the ""'at sipifktmt CtlSuøi reilltiolfShips to injury and øccidmt were found
to be street width and street cunatllre. » "mas the street wúlem, IJ£cidents per mlIe per year
increases exponentially, and that the safest residential street width is 24 feet."
9
"
~
Furthennore in the same report it is stated, "In neo-traditional design, on-street parking is only
provided wbere densities exceed .. dwelling units per acre."
In fact, the study went on to point out:
"Reducing FtHld widlJrs from 32 feet to 20 feet wUl produce /I 6% redMctJolf In impervWIIS /lreø"
Typically, street systems account for more than 50% of the total amount of
imperviousness on site. Studies have shown that where cul-de-sacs are built, the radii of
turnaround should be minimized. Reducing the length and width of a road reduces the
impervious surfaces and thus reduces runoff. Additionally, the use of porous pavement
reduces impervious surfaces. There is no indication on what is being done to make
effective use of porous pavement to reduce storm water runoff and the impervious
surface.
(see www.nemo.uconn.edu) for a more detailed explanation on the above information. It also addresses the
concern over some individuals bave about an emergency vehicle having enough room to turn arOlmd.
The area for the proposed Fox Drive has been a grassy area maintained by the residents
of the Fox Hollow Development for over 20 years. The property owners pay $12-15 a
year to maintain this area. It is well maintained. Who would maintain these areas once a
development is put in? The City? A private maintenance company? Who would pay? The
name of the proposed development is Fox Den. Fox Den would be located in a totally
different zoning district than the original Fox Hollow. A 31 foot wide between 10 Fox
Hollow Drive the Outlot A would look out-of-character for the community. A 24 foot
wide road through a variance request would serve better purposes. It would not be so
close to the property line (a proposed 9 feet) to the 10 Fox Hollow Drive residence, and it
would not be so close to the West end of Outlot A. Furthermore, the road will be very
close to 101. IfMN Dot decides to expand 101 to 4 lanes in the future, then the pond at
the comer of 101 and Fox Hollow Drive may have to be relocated. The entry to Fox
Hollow, without any buffers, will not look like an entry to a well established and sought
after residential PUD, but it will look like one solid slab of pavement and concrete.
The property owners of 10 Fox Hollow Drive request that the road, if installed, be located
at least 12 feet off of their property line to the East. This distance is a safe distance
because in the event of snow plowing in the winter, the snow will not be plowed directly
into the fence that will be maintained by the owners of 10 Fox Hollow Drive.
Additionally, the turning area for Fox Drive, as currently proposed on the Preliminary
Plat is literally 2-3 feet off of the property line. Again, this turning radius begins too close
to the property line. The owners strongly request that the entire road be moved further to
the East. For safety reasons, there are serious concerns. Without proper natural buffering
and protection, a car may roll down the embankment or drive off of Fox Drive and into
the pond-whether intentionally or unintentionally. The owners of 10 Fox Hollow Drive
request that buffering and boulevard plantings occur, in addition to the natural buffering
and landscaping proposed above because 10 Fox Hollow Drive will now be located on a
street comer; the owners would request serious consideration of these issues. The owners
would like a Norway spruce planted on the comer of Fox Hollow Drive and Fox Drive,
on the comer of their property. MN Dot needs to establish a wider and longer turn lane
10
""
A
off of 101 into the Fox Hollow Development. The turn lane is too narrow its current
length does not provide enough time to slow down from 45 mph to near 0 mph safely.
Lastly, 101 is a very busy road. The addition of any more traffic to this road will cause
more harm than good.
5. Proposed Plat Alternatives (See Pages Attached)
Besides the alternatives proposed above, the attached mark-ups of the Preliminary Plat
provide further gnidance in how to modify the existing proposal while still providing a
win-win solution for the developer, the neighborhood, and the property owners most
affected by these changes. There are several inconsistencies in the Fox Den proposal as
they relate to the Chanhassen City Code, and there are several design flaws and
inadequacies proposed that would prevent effective storm water management practices.
There are several alternatives that should be considered and implemented before this Plan
is approved.

Re: Fox Den Preliminary Plat Public Hearing
Staff Report # 05-08
Dear Ms. Aanenson and Ms. AI-Jaff:
In preparation for the Public Hearing on March 15,2005, regarding the proposal above, I
would like you to deliver to the Planning Commission members the following proposals
for additional conditions or friendly amendments to the Staff Report prior to the Public
Hearing on March 15th.
Although I remain opposed to the development at this time for reasons stated in my
memo of March 4th (see my memo attachment to staff report), in the event the
Commission does vote to refer this matter to the City Council, I would like the
Commission to consider adding the following changes to conditions or adding friendly
amendments to the Staff Report. The changÐs and amendments are underlined.
1. Condition: Page 12, # 12(h): Trees 142-144 and.six green ash not shown on the Tree
Inventory shall be preserved bv adherence to Section 18-61(d)(4) of the Chanhassen Citv
code which provides for relief to preserve tree loss by realignment of streets. utilities. and
lot lines. and by instituting modified grading plans.
Background to Condition: On page 8 of the staff report, it states that when the building pennit
for Lot 1, Block 1 is submitted, these trees will be re-eva1uated for preservation. These trees
should be preserved by implementing Section 18-61(d)(4) of the Code.
2. Condition: Page 12, #12(1): The applicant shall plant boulevard trees along Fox
Hollow Drive and Fox Drive to replace trees lost due to pond expansion. ORe tree shall
èe plRBteå ever! 30 feet except withiR IRe sigAt tFi¡¡¡¡gle. Species shall èe appreveå by the
Gity,-Qne conifer tree shall be planted every 6-14 feet except within the sight triangle
along the Eastern Right-of-Wav of Fox Drive. The species will be Norwav Spruce or
another fast growing conifer tree similar to the species of tree that is currentlv located
directly North of Outlot A of Fox Hollow. and approved bv the Citv. Adherence to
Section 20-1176(f)(8) will be recommended. A total of 8-10 trees is recommended to be
planted along Fox Drive. and 3-4 along Fox Hollow Drive.
i
Background to Condition: On Page 8 of the staff report, the staff recommends that the applicant
be required to plant boulevard trees along Fox Drive and Fox Hollow Drive to replace the City
trees lost. To create a partial buffer for Highway 101, staff recommends that evergreens be
considered for the boulevard trees along Fox Drive. The buffer of over a dozen evergreen trees
would be eliminated with a proposed expansion of the pond. Plantings of every 30 feet are not
adequate and they would not provide as much of a buffer as exists now.
3. Variance Request: Page 10 of Staff Report: The applicant is requesting s street
width variance. This variance was recommended by Staff. The ordinance requires a 60
foot Right-of-Way width. The plat reflects a 50 foot Right-of-Way. The Right-of-Way is
consistent with the existing Right-of-Way that will provide access to this development.
The 50 foot Right-of-Wav street width variance will be approved with 24 feet of paved
road surface.
Background to Variance and Street Issues. As pointed out in pages 9-11 of my memo, there
are several issues with the proposed 31 foot street width paved surface. Studies have shown that a
24 foot wide paved surface is safer, slows speeds, can provide ample parking room on one side of
the street, provides enough access to emergency vehicles, reduces impervious surfaces, decreases
maintenance and construction costs, will increase lot size, and will fit in better where the road is
proposed. It is very questionable whether or not a 31 foot wide paved surface could be placed
safely being over 9 feet of the property line of 10 Fox Hollow Drive, and between the boulevard
to the West of Outlot A. The road would be extremely close to the edge of the pond, and
aesthetically it would look out of place for the area it would serve: 6 single family homes with
only 60 trips per day. Other communities in Minnesota use various paved street widths very
effectively. Examine Afton and Lake Elmo are examples.
4. Grading, Drainage & Erosion Control Page3--Staff is recommending that a small
retaining wall (1' to 3') be installed along the western Right-of-Way of Fox Drive of the
site. This will alleviate the steep slopes in the area and provide room for a boulevard area
in back of the curb for snow storage.
Background on the above issue: I have met with the developer and his engineer. It is not yet
detennined if a retaining wall will be put in or if the existing area to the East of my property line
will be slightly graded. I would like to find out first, how exactly high this retaining wall would
be? what material it would it would be made out of? How long would it be? How it would look?
Basically, I need to see the developer's landscape architects' depiction of what this would look
like. The developer and his engineer have given me the option to examine this retaining wall
option. I would like to see a friendly amendment that states: The developer. his engineer. and
landscape architect will work with the owners of 10 Fox Hollow Drive to design a retaining wall
that will aestheticallv complement their existing home. or give the owners of 10 Fox Hollow
Drive the option to forgo the retaining wall and work with them on a modified grading option.
5. Condition: Page 10 #1 The pond in Outlot A, Fox Hollow, shall be maintained to
ensure it meets the size and volume standards to which it was originally designated. Any
inlet and outlet structures requiring maintenance or replacement shall be maintained or
replaced.
~
6. Condition: Page 11 #2 An outlet meeting NPDES permanent storm water
management system requirements shall be installed at the outlet of the pond on Outlot A,
Fox Hollow.
7. Condition: Page 13 # 20. The applicant will be required to clean the existing
stormwater pond after enlargements have been completed.
Background to all of the conditions in 4,5,6: On page 4 of the Staff Report it states that the
pond is required to be designed to National Urban Runoff Program (NURP) standards. On page 3
of tbe Staff Report it states that: Staff is recommending this pond be expanded to provide water
quality treatments. To what size? To what the developer wants? As pointed out in my memo on
pages 4-8, there are several problems with the stonnwater pond enlargement proposal and design.
First, who would clean and replace the inlet and outlets? The City or the developer? What
structures need replacing? How is the applicant going to clean the pond? What method is going
be used? The Commission needs to ask itself:
Are there any other reasonable alternatives than to expand the pond that would lessen the
impact and remove the buffer?
Have we looked seriously at the alternatives and are we absolutely sure that there are no
alternatives?
Is there anything else we can do to reduce impervious surlace?
Because from my research, there are alternatives that we are not considering. There are issues
with this pond's proposed design even after expansion. I would refer you to the Metropolitan
Council. This Council is the regional planning agency serving the Twin Cities seven county
metropolitan area. They have published a Best Management Practices Manual for Urban Small
Sites. One of the sections is titled "Wet Ponds." According to the Metropolitan Council, a Wet
Pond is also known as a NURP pond. Its primary pollutant removal system is sedimentation. An
issue that was raised with this very same pond back in 1984. There are several design
characteristics that need to be met for a NURP pond.
I.Pond Shape: To maximize stonnwater contact and residue time in the pool, a length to width
ratio of3:1 is recommended. This pond with its expansion would be nearly as long as it is wide.
2. Sediment Forebay. The length to width ratio should be 2: 1 to avoid short circuiting. No one
seems to be able to address this issue regarding the Forebay.
3. Riser. Is there a Riser associated with this pond? There should be a riser.
4. Avoidance of short circuiting. The ratio of flowpath length to width ratio from the inlet to the
outlet should be 3: 1. (the flow path length is defined as the distance from the inlet to outlet
measured at mid-depth).
5. All inlets should enter though the first cell. If there are multiple inlets, the length to width ratio
should be based on average flow path length of all inlets. The problem with # 4 & #5 is that it
does not appear that these ratios are maintained. Also, there are multiple inlets. In fact, at least
one very close (within 2 feet) of the outlet. This is very bad NURP pond design.
6. The pond should be a tear drop shape as opposed to a rectangular shape. Tear drop shapes
minimize dead zones caused by comers.
7. The side slopes of the permanent pool should be no steeper than 3:1. Flatter slopes protect
against erosion, they are safer, easier to maintain and mow.
8. There should be emergent wetland vegetation planted. Long natural grasses and shrubs.
Plantings such as soft stem bulrushes, arrowhead, various exotic grasses, wild rice. This all
should be planted along the side of the pond for full visual enhancement.
i
I would propose that before the Connnission approves this plat that a feasibility study going
examining all of these issues in depth be done. Given that the SWMP is out of date, it would be
prudent for long range planning to do this and do it right at this time.
8. There is a reference in the Preliminary Plat Plans submitted by Otto Engineering
that requires the owners of 10 Fox Hollow Drive to remove their wooden fence along the
East of their property line and the wire fence to the North of their property line. I'd like to
see a friendly amendment that states: The owners of 10 Fox Hollow Drive do not have to
remove their wooden fence along the east of their propertv. nor do thev have to remove
the wire fence. The wire fence can be removed bv the contractor assuming he takes care
in its removal not to damage the Pfopertv of 10 Fox Hollow Drive.
Thank you.

Response to questions
1. Proposal Summary page 2--Since the applicant is already filing for a variance for
street width, can the commission consider a 24 foot roadway width (back of curb
to back of curb) in lieu of the 31 foot proposal?
Answer
Staff would be against a variance to decrease the street width to 24' for the
following reasons.
a) It would limit the street to parking on only one side or prohibit on-
street parking all together. This would conflict with all other
public residential streets in town that allow parking on both sides.
b) There is no major environmental reason why a street meeting
current design requirements (31 ' wide) cannot be constructed; in
other words, staff does not see a hardship why the street width
needs to be decreased.
2. Grading, Drainage & Erosion Control page 3--regarding the proposal for the 1-3
foot retaining wall along the western Right-of-Way (ROW) of Fox drive, would
this proposed wall run the entire distance of the ROW of Fox Drive beginning at
the corner of Fox Hollow Drive? If I am understanding it correctly--my fence
would remain, then my grass area to the East of my property would remain with
the current slope, then the retaining wall be built at the same level as my grass,
and then there would be a 1-3 foot drop-off to the street curb. Is this correct?
Again, we want to emphasize we think that the 3:1 slope is excessive in this area
and is not needed. Aesthetically the retaining wall if not designed and confignred
correctly, it will not make our property look attractive.
Answer
Answer
Based on the submitted plan, a retaining wall would be needed for approx.
90' along the western right-of-way line of Fox Drive. This length of wall
may be able to be lessened by revising the street grades. Staff has
mentioned this to the applicant's engineer and they have agreed to look
into this further.
The description of the proposed retaining wall is correct.
3. Drainage page 3--Concerning the expansion of the pond, staff is recommending
expansion of the pond but how much larger? To what the developer wants? Who
is also going to maintain or replace any inlet or outlet structures? The City or the
developer?
Staff has reviewed the developer's proposed pond expansion. Our only
comment is to add an additional contour elevation line (912) at the bottom
of the pond for additional water quality purposes. This will ensure that the
pond is sized to NURP standards for the entire drainage area. The City
will take over ownership/maintenance of the pond and storm sewer at the
conclusion of the project and after the warranty period.
4. Page 4 it states--the pond is required to be designed to National Urban Runoff
Program (NURP) standards. However, NURP standards mainly pertain to water
quality? Are further studies going to be done to see if the area North of the pond
can be better preserved as a natural buffer? I posed a series of questions (in my
memo) on this pond and the proposed expansion--will these questions be
answered? Has any real consideration been given to what the Minnesota Erosion
Control Association advocates and other individuals, organizations I cited in my
memo as far as the overall design and do other landscaping items to limit
impervious surface and street width? There are several ideas that need to be fully
considered in my memo.
Answer
As previously stated above in #3, staff has reviewed the pond expansion
design and is in agreement with the proposed layout of the pond. The
pond, as currently exists, is not sized for the entire developed drainage
area that will be going to the pond. As such, the pond must be enlarged in
order to meet the water quality requirements of NURP. Additionally, the
pond will store the storm water during a rain event so that the outlet rate of
water leaving the pond is less than what the current runoff rate is. This is
how the pond will meet the water quantity requirement of the City.
Finally, the developer will be installing a new outlet control structure, per
City detail plate #3109, to control the outlet rate. The city code regulates
impervious surface and street width.
5. Tree Preservation & Landscaping Page 8--"When the building permit for Lot 1,
Block 1 is submitted, these trees will be re-evaluated for preservation." As stated
in my memo, the City Code provides for adjustment of lot lines and revised
grading for tree preservation.
Answer
In this instance, adjustment of lot lines will not lead to additional tree
preservation. At the time of building permit, staff will work with the
builder to preserve trees were feasible.
6. Page 8--The City Code states that the City has the right to require the planting of
evergreens to be used as a buffer where necessary. We would be in favor of that,
and we would like to see them be planted 20 feet apart as opposed to 30 feet.
Please keep in mind, all of our buffer, if the entire pond is expanded will be wiped
out. Plus, we would like fast growing Norway Spruce planted for best impact
from noise, light, and wind buffering. There should be 6-7 of these evergreens
planted along the Fox Drive boulevard at a minimum.
Answer
The city code requires boulevard trees be planted 30 feet apart.
7. Page 12. Under Environmental Resources Coordinator Concerns:
(This question relates to question 6 above). Under H,I: "the applicant shall plant
boulevard trees along Fox Hollow Drive and Fox Drive re replace trees lost due to
pond expansion." How many trees will be planted, we would recommend 6-7
along just Fox Drive. Again, we would request that the City mandate evergreen
plantings here as there is a provision in the City code for it. As far as the plantings
around the pond of Fox Hollow Drive, we do not have a specific type of tree.
However, again as pointed out in my memo, natural long grasses and shrubs
should be planted around the entire pond site. This would reduce runoff and it is
in line with proper pond design standards.
Answer
The City will insure that the development complies with the buffer
ordinance requirements.

Dear Mr. Generous:
The Minnesota Department of Transportation (Mn/DOT) has reviewed the above
referenced plat in compliance with Minnesota Statute 505.03, subdivision 2, Plats, and
has the following comments:
· A drainage pennit will be required for this project, as the pond outlets via a 24" CMP
crossing Trunk Highway 101. Additional drainage infonnation is required. The
proposed construction will need to maintain existing drainage rates to Mn/DOT right-
of-way. Please provide the following:
I) A grading Plan of the existing & proposed project.
2) Drainage area maps for the proposed project showing both existing and proposed
drainage areas and flows (with flow arrows)
3) Hydraulic computations/modeling before and after proposed reconstructions (ie.,
Hydro-CADinput assumptions, calibration data, results for 10 and 100 year stonn
events).
Please submit any further documentation electronically as Adobe Acrobat (.pdt), and
HydroCAD (.hc) files. ¡fplans change, you must resubmit for review. The
electronic model and pdt'tile can be emalledtonchard.cadvriVdot.state.mn.us. Please
direct questions concerning these issues to Richard Cady (651-634-2075) of
Mn/DOT's Water Resources Engineering section.
· Any use of or work within or affecting Mn/DOT right of way requires a pennit,
pennit fonns are available trom Mn/DOT's utility website at
www.dot.state.mn.us/tecsup/utilitv. Please direct any questions regarding pennit
requirements to Keith Van Wagner (651-582-1443), or Buck Craig (651-582-1447)
of Mn/DOT's Metro Pennits Section.
· The Right-of-Way Section has reviewed the plans and has detennined that one
dimension is wrong on Sheet no. I of5. The 40' dimension should be 33' in one
location. Please direct any questions regarding pennit requirements to John Isackson
of Mn/DOT' s Right-of-way Section at 651-582-1273.
An equal opporlunity employer
. Mn/DOT's policy is to assist local governments in promoting compatibility between
land use and highways. Residential uses located adjacent to highways often result in
complaints about traffic noise. Traffic noise from this highway could exceed noise
standards established by the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA), the U.S.
Department of Housing and Urban Development, and the U.S. Department of
Transportation. Minnesota Rule 7030.0030 states that municipalities are responsible
for taking all reasonable measures to prevent land use activities listed in the MPCA's
Noise Area Classification (NAC) where the establishment of the land use would
result in violations of established noise standards.
~ Mn/DOT policy regarding development adjacent to existing highways prohibits
the expenditure of highway funds for noise mitigation measures in such areas.
The project proposer should assess the noise situation and take the action deemed
necessary to minimize the impact of any highway noise. If you have any
questions regarding Mn/DOT's noise policy please contact Peter Wasko in our
Design section at (651) 582-1293.
