PROPOSAL /SUMMARY
The applicant is requesting a site plan
review for the expansion of an existing
daycare center. The site is zoned IOP,
Industrial Office Park and bordered by
Highway 5 to the north, office buildings
to the cast and southeast and Riley Creek
to the west. The lot area of the daycare
site is 2.2 acres and gains access off of
Park Court.
The site plan is for a 3,000 square -foot
addition that will be added along the
southwest portion of the building.
Materials used on the addition will be
identical to those used on the original
building: Decorative Concrete Masonry
Unit (CMU) with a strip of smooth
accent CMU, and windows.
The existing playground is located along the north portion of the existing building and is not
proposed to change. Parking is located along the south and east portions of the lot. The
southerly parking area will be reconfigured and new spaces will be added to accommodate the
addition.
Staff regards the project as a reasonable use of the land. Based upon the foregoing, staff is
recommending approval of the site plan, with conditions outlined in the staff report.
BACKGROUND
On October 24, 1988, the City
Council approved a conditional use
permit with a variance to allow the
construction of a 6,700 square -foot
daycare center with a variance for a
parking setback.

be situated northwest of the
existing building. With this
addition, the total building area
will be 9,700 square feet. The
site is zoned IOP, Industrial
Office Park and bordered by
Highway 5 to the north, office
buildings to the east and
southeast and Riley Creek to the
west. The lot area of the
daycare site is 2.2 acres.

to Riley Creek acting as a buffer.
There is at least 50 feet of wooded land adjacent
The addition is fairly straightforward. Access is gained from Park Road. Existing parking is
located to the east and south of the site. The parking will be reconfigured to allow for the
addition and add two parking spaces. Existing playground area is located along the northeast
portion of the building.
The applicant is proposing to utilize the same
materials as the existing building consisting of
decorative Concrete Masonry Unit (CMU) with a
strip of smooth accent CMU, and windows. The
accent band was painted and the applicant will match
that color. Windows are also used to add an
architectural interest.

ARCHITECTURAL COMPLIANCE
The proposed addition will match the existing building. The colors and materials will be
identical to the existing building. The fagade of the addition viewed by the public contains 50
percent windows and/or doors.
LIGHTING /SIGNAGE
The applicant prepared a lighting photometrics plan. Light levels for site lighting shall be no
more than one -half foot candle at the project perimeter property line. This does not apply to
street lighting. Light fixtures shall be downcast and the light shall be cut off at a 90- degree angle
as required by the city code. All fixtures shall be shielded.
The applicant has not shown any signs on the site plan. There are existing wall and monument
signs on the site. Any modification in signage must comply with the sign ordinance and will
require a sign permit.
The ordinance requires one parking space per six students. The building capacity is 119 students
which translates to 20 parking spaces. The applicant is providing 28 parking spaces.

including the comprehensive plan, official road mapping, and other plans that
may be adopted;
(2) Consistency with this division;
(3) Preservation of the site in its natural state to the extent practicable by minimizing
tree and soil removal and designing grade changes to be in keeping with the
general appearance of the neighboring developed or developing areas;
(4) Creation of a harmonious relationship of building and open space with natural site
features and with existing and future buildings having a visual relationship to the
development;
Planning Commission

(5) Creation of functional and harmonious design for structures and site features, with
special attention to the following:
a. An internal sense of order for the buildings and use on the site and
provision of a desirable environment for occupants, visitors and general
community;
b. The amount and location of open space and landscaping;
C. Materials, textures, colors and details of construction as an expression of
the design concept and the compatibility of the same with adjacent and
neighboring structures and uses; and
d. Vehicular and pedestrian circulation, including walkways, interior drives
and parking in terms of location and number of access points to the public
streets, width of interior drives and access points, general interior
circulation, separation of pedestrian and vehicular traffic and arrangement
and amount of parking.
(6) Protection of adjacent and neighboring properties through reasonable provision
for surface water drainage, sound and sight buffers, preservation of views, light
and air and those aspects of design not adequately covered by other regulations
which may have substantial effects on neighboring land uses.
Finding: The proposed development is consistent with the design requirements, the
comprehensive plan, the zoning ordinance, and the site plan review requirements. The
site design is compatible with the surrounding development and the existing building. It
is functional and harmonious with the approved development for this area.

COMPLIANCE TABLE
WETLANDS, BLUFFS AND SHORELAND
Based upon a review of aerial photography, soils data, the National Wetland Inventory maps, the
City of Chanhassen Wetland Inventory and the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District Wetland
Inventory, there is no evidence of any wetland features on site. Further, while there are steep
slopes immediately adjacent to the site, they do not meet the definition of bluff.
The site is within the shoreland district for Riley Creek. The proposed improvements are 70 feet
from the centerline of Riley Creek at its nearest point. This is compliant with the required 50-
foot setback. There is at least 50 feet of wooded land adjacent to Riley Creek acting as a buffer.
GRADING AND DRAINAGE
The existing site drains water runoff in two directions. The runoff from the building, half of the
west parking lot and the west half of the property all drain over the surface of the ground to Riley
Creek. The existing spillway into Riley Creek has experienced erosion and is in a state of
deterioration. The water runoff from the east half of the property, including most of the
pavement surface, drains to Park Court to be picked up by the municipal storm sewer system.

The applicant is proposing to install a dry pond to address the runoff and erosion issues along the
slope of Riley Creek. This proposed practice will reduce rates to the steep slope area and will
provide some water quality benefit and volume reduction. The outlet for the dry pond will have
a rip rap slope constructed to provide energy dissipation. This area should be shown on the
overall grading plan and erosion prevention and sediment control practices shall be modified to
accommodate this disturbance.
The plan calls for the use of a portion of the west parking lot and drop -off area as storage for the
larger rain events. Water may pool to a depth of one -half foot. It appears that it may be possible
to reduce, although not eliminate, this pooling depth and area by installing a curb cut emergency
overflow in the southwest corner of the parking lot.
A soils report indicating soil conditions, permeability and slope is required.
The scale on the grading plans must be corrected.
The existing and proposed elevations must be shown at the corners of the proposed structure.
The plan shall be revised to show locations of any proposed stockpile areas.
The proposed grades shall be no steeper than 3:1.
EASEMENTS
A 10 -foot drainage and utility easement runs along the north, east and southeast property lines,
whereas a 5 -foot drainage and utility easement runs along the rest of the property's borders
PARKING LOT
Staff recommends the use of minimum parking dimensions to reduce hard surface cover and aid
in the stormwater management of the property. Per City Code §20 -1118, 60° angled parking
spaces have a minimum dimension of 9' x 18' spaces and 18.5' aisle widths. The City Code
contains a figure to illustrate the required dimensions.
EROSION PREVENTION AND SEDIMENT CONTROL
Because the proposed plan will result in less than one acre of new impervious, it will not require
a General Permit Authorization to Discharge Stormwater Associated with Construction Activity
Under the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System/State Disposal System Program
(NPDES Construction Permit). The plan must comply with Chapter 19 of Chanhassen City
code.

NEXT STEPS LEARNING CENTER: REOUEST FOR SITE PLAN REVIEW WITH
VARIANCES FOR A 3.000 SQUARE FOOT BUILDING EXPANSION ON PROPERTY ZONED
INDUSTRIAL OFFICE PARK (IOP) AND LOCATED AT 1430 PARK COURT (LOT 1. BLOCK
2. ROME PARK). APPLICANT: JEREMY SPAUDE, PLANNING CASE 2014 -15.
Al -Jaff: Chairman Aller, members of the Planning Commission. Brief correction to the staff report.
Initially we said that this will appear before the City Council on May 20`s. We're actually, I'm sorry
June. It was said that in the staff report that this would appear before the City Council on June 9'. We're
actually moving it to May 27' so just minor correction.
Aller: Okay so for the record that will be May 27, 2014 and for those individuals at home or present that
are watching this item, the reports are found on the Chanhassen website as well so please go ahead and
take a look at those before the meetings.
Al-Jaff: The site is located at 1430 Park Road. It is bordered by Highway 5 to the north and Park Court
to the east. Riley Creek runs to the west of the subject site. The site is zoned Industrial Office Park. It is
accessed off of Park Court and there is a daycare center on the site as well as a, a daycare on the site as
well as a play area to the north of the daycare center. Just a brief background on this site. Back in
October of 1988 the City Council approved a Conditional Use Permit for the construction of a daycare
Center. There was also a variance that was granted and the variance is for the parking lot. The parking
area that is located immediately to the southeast comer, portion of the site. City code requires that it
maintains a 10 foot setback and in this case it was at zero and it was to provide parking for the site that's
immediately to the west of the subject site. Or to the east, I'm sorry. The proposal before you today
looks at adding a 3,000 square foot addition to the site. The addition will be located southwest of the
existing building and the total area for both the addition as well as the existing building is going to be
approximately 10,000 square feet. They, the building meets all ordinance requirements. Bluff Creek is
located to the west of the subject site. City Code requires that it maintain, all structures maintain a
minimum of 50 feet from the center line of the creek. In this case it exceeds 70 feet at the closest point.
In addition to that there are trees throughout this area and they will remain undisturbed so all of these
requirements are met. As far as parking goes, the city code requires 1 parking space per 6 children. They
will have a capacity of 119 kids within this building. That translates to 20 parking spaces. They are
providing 28 parking spaces. As far as the building itself and the architecture, this is the area that will be
Chanhassen Planning Commission — May 20, 2014
added. This is what any individual that will be approaching the building, that would be the fagade that
they will see. They are introducing an entrance and it is pronounced. You will be able to see it and locate
the entrance into the building. Fenestration as well as transparency meets ordinance requirements. Keep
in mind that this is an existing building so we're just trying to meet the exact same standards as the
existing. Materials are shown, there we go. Okay, materials again they match the existing building. Face
block as well as EFIS. And then the frames of the building will also, frames for the windows will also
match the existing building. Staff is recommending approval of this site plan for the construction of
3,000 square feet of daycare expansion subject to conditions in the staff report and adoption of the
attached Findings of Fact and Recommendation. I'll be happy to answer any questions you may have.
Aller: Any questions?
Weick: Is there?
Allen: Mr. Weick.
Weick: Yeah. Is there, it looks like there was, is there water? Some kind of runoff or something added?
Is that new? Or what is that feature I guess? The blue.
Aller: Retention pond?
Al -Jaffa Correct. It's a retention pond and it's a day. Go ahead Alyson.
Fauske: I'd be happy to answer your question. The proposal before you and the area outlined in blue and
shaded in blue is intended to be a dry pond and what a dry pond is, is it collects water after a rainfall event
and slowly and eventually that, the entire amount of water that's in that basin will dissipate and discharge
down the slope so the intent is to try to mediate, mediate an erosion issue that exists on the site.
Aller: And then to follow up with that, the addition of the 28 parking spots, is that going to be a problem
with the erosion or runoff?
Fauske: That was factored into the design so the applicant's engineer worked with staff in order to
accommodate the additional discharge rates and with the proposed pond in the existing in place system
they meet the requirements.
Aller: Great. Again any questions? Alright, thank you. If the applicant wishes to step forward and make
a presentation they can do so. They don't have to but if they'd like to that's fine. Or just introduce
yourself would be great.
Jeremy Spaude: Sure, Jeremy Spaude, 1430 Park Court. I think Sharmeen covered it well. We're just
looking to add a gym and really make our entrance and our parking lot flow really well for what we have
now.
Aller: Welcome sir. And you've had a copy of the report and you've reviewed all the conditions.
Jeremy Spaude: Correct.
Aller: And you're willing to do anything with the City or at least work with the City to make sure that the
requirements are met.
Jeremy Spaude: Correct. Yep, Sharmeen's been a great partner.
Chanhassen Planning Commission — May 20, 2014
Aller: Wonderful. Any other questions or anything you'd like to say?
Jeremy Spaude: Nope, I think we're good.
Aller: Perfect, thank you. At this point we'll open the public hearing portion of this matter. Anyone
wishing to speak either for or against the item can step forward at this time and do so. Seeing no one
coming forward I'm going to close the public hearing portion and open it for discussion then if any. It's
an addition to an existing building. It meets the hard cover requirements and they've taken into account
the impact in creating the dry pond so it looks pretty straight forward.
Weick: There were only minor additions, yeah.
Aller: Anyone wish to make a motion?
Yusuf. I'll make the motion.
Aller: Okay.

construction of a 3,000 square foot daycare expansion subject to the conditions of approval and adoption
