SUBDIVISION REVIEW
The applicant is creating 15 lots and 4 outlots from 19.64 acres. The plat will dedicate the right of
way for portions of Galpin Boulevard, Fawn Hill Road and Bentz Court. Lots 1 — 4, Block 1, will
be accessed via a private street. Lots 1, 2 and 3, Block 1, are located within the shoreland district.
Outlot A is entirely within the Bluff Creek Corridor primary zone and will be preserved as
permanent open space.
EASEMENTS
The developer shall update the title search for this property to produce all records for the
roadway easement over the northern part of this property.
The proposed sanitary pipeline extends into the property to the north, so an easement for
construction of the pipe is required between the developer and the property owner. A
maintenance agreement must also be obtained between the property owner and the City.
On Lots 1, 3 and 4, Block 1, the drainage and utility easement must be increased near the
sanitary sewer main. The easement must be large enough for a 1:1 trench excavation for future
maintenance of the sewer line.

GRADING
Grading shall be revised to direct water away from the building corners. Spot elevations shall be
shown near the southeast building corner of Lot 1, Block 1. The raised side yard shall be revised
between Lots 9 and 10, Block I to direct water away from the building comers. The front yard
grading of Lot 2, Block 2 shall be revised near the southeast corner. The grading on both sides
of Lot 2, Block 2 must be revised to direct water away from the eastern comers of the building
pad.
The grading and storm water plans must show the location of emergency Overflows (EOF). The
EOF from the north pond shall not discharge water onto the property north of this development.
The lowest building opening for properties adjacent to an EOF must be a minimum of one foot
above the EOF elevation.
The grading plan must show proposed driveway locations and elevations at the center of the
proposed driveway at the curb line. The maximum allowed driveway grade is 10 %.
The driveways for Lot 5, Block 1 and Lot 1, Block 2 must be a minimum of 40 feet away from
the intersection of Fawn Hill Road and Windsor Court.
Erosion Prevention and Sediment Control
The development will result in a disturbance of greater than one (1) acre. A SWPPP shall be
required.
CONNECTION CHARGES
Surface Water Management connection charges will be due with the final plat. These fees are
estimated as follows.
RETAINING WALLS
The developer proposes a retaining wall on this site. It will run north to south at the back of Lots
13, 14 and 15. It is approximately 175 feet long and has a maximum height of 4 feet.
The development plans shall call out the material of the retaining wall. The following materials
are prohibited for retaining wall construction: smooth face, poured -in -place concrete (stamped or
patterned is acceptable), masonry, railroad ties and timber.

A Homeowners Association (HOA) must be created to take ownership and maintenance
responsibility of the retaining wall and any drain tile that will cross property lines.
STREETS
The proposed street plan consists of two streets, one public and one private. The public street
will be called Fawn Hill Road and the ghost plat shows that it is planned to connect to the
existing Fawn Hill Road once the parcel between the two develops. Until the connection is
made, the proposed roadway will end in a hammerhead.
The street profile for Fawn Hill Road is proposed to tie -in to the existing Fawn Hill Road at a
10% grade. This exceeds the maximum grade currently allowed in City Code, however the
existing Fawn Hill Road (constructed in 1995) is at a 10% slope. This steep grade in the new
roadway is necessary to match up to the existing condition.
The street profile for Fawn Hill Road shall be revised to indicate which part will be completed
by others and which part will be completed for the Vistas at Bentz Farms. The street profile
shall call out the future intersection with Bentz Court.
The Fawn Hill Road alignment consists of reverse curves to discourage future through traffic.
The roadway is 31 feet wide within a 60 -foot right -of -way.
The cars from Fawn Hill Road turning onto Galpin Blvd will have a sight distance of 1000 feet
or more in each direction, which is adequate (per the MnDot Road Design Manual) for
intersection sight distance for a stopped minor road turning onto a major road. The sight
distance was confirmed by staff by the Carver County aerial survey contours from 2011 and
visual inspection of the site.
A stop sign shall be installed for traffic on Fawn Hill Road to come to a stop before entering
Galpin Boulevard.
The private street is called Windsor Court. It is a 317 -foot long cul -de -sac with a 90 -foot
diameter. Windsor Court is 20 feet wide within 30 feet of right -of -way. It intersects with Fawn
Hill Road approximately 110 feet from the intersection with Galpin Boulevard.
The grading plan for Windsor Court shows an inverted crown. This would contain runoff to the
street where winter freeze /thaw conditions would damage the pavement. The plan shall be
modified so that Windsor Court is constructed with the 3% crown, per the City's standard detail.
Curb and gutter are required for this private street.

DRIVEWAYS AND SIDEWALKS
The driveway for Lot 11, Block 1 is set at the end of
Fawn Hill Road. The developer shall work with staff to
provide access for vehicles exiting the driveway to
navigate onto the roadway.
The developer's engineer shall work with Carver
County staff to obtain any necessary permits to remove
the farm drives and the culverts underneath them.
AB
m
Sidewalk will be constructed on the west side of Fawn Hill Road. The plans shall indicate the
construction of ADA pedestrian ramps where the sidewalk intersects Galpin Boulevard and
Windsor Court.
The City of Chanhassen standard detail plates for pedestrian ramps shall be added to the plan set.
SANITARY SEWER AND WATERMAIN
The developer proposes to construct new 8 -inch watermain that will connect to the existing 20-
inch DIP watermain that runs parallel to Galpin Boulevard.
The hydrant at 1 +50 Windsor Court should be moved to the intersection of Windsor Court and
Fawn Hill Road. Adjust plans to show only one hydrant at the intersection of Fawn Hill Road
and Galpin Boulevard.
The developer proposes to construct new 8 -inch PVC sanitary sewer that will connect to the
existing manhole approximately 100 feet north of the intersection of Galpin Boulevard and West
78th Street.
A permit must be obtained from Carver County for sanitary sewer work inside their right of way.
The engineer shall work with City staff to reduce the number of sanitary maintenance holes in
the plan.
ASSESSMENTS
An assessment for the Lake Ann Interceptor improvements from 2003 is outstanding for this
property. The principal of $187.50 must be paid or reassessed to the individual lots at the time of
final plat.
An assessment for water and sewer improvements from 2002 is outstanding. The principal of
$38,922.00 must be paid or reassessed to the individual lots at the time of final plat.
Water and sewer partial hook -ups are due at the time of final plat. The partial hook -up fees will
be assessed at the rate in effect at that time.

LANDSCAPING AND TREE PRESERVATION
The applicant for the Vistas at Bentz Farms development has submitted tree canopy coverage
and preservation calculations. They are as follows:
Total upland area (excluding wetlands) 15 ac. or 656,097 SF
Baseline canopy coverage 43% or 287,870 SF
Minimum canopy coverage allowed 35% or 229,633 SF
Proposed tree preservation 26% or 171,665 SF
The 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 57,968 SF
Multiplier 1.2
Total replacement 69,561 SF
Total number of trees to be planted 63 trees
The total number of trees required for the development is 63. Applicant has proposed a total of
64 trees. A minimum of one tree in each front yard is required per city ordinance.
The applicant is required to provide bufferyard plantings along Galpin Blvd.
Bufferyard requirements are as shown in the table:

Applicant meets bufferyard landscaping requirements.
The applicant is proposing to preserve five overstory trees in the southern half of the bufferyard
along Galpin B. The tree ( #416) closest to the entry drive is a blue spruce in poor condition.
Staff recommends that this tree be removed due to its poor quality. The next tree to the south is
a large willow (#421) that has a good appearance, but has lost a second trunk which will be
visible once the leaves have dropped. There may also be decay in the stem which would make it
more likely to fail. The southernmost tree to be preserved is a sugar maple (#432) in good
condition and extra measures should be taken to insure that the health of the tree remains as such.

Tree protection fencing shall be installed at the edge of the dripline and the berm and bufferyard
grading shall not encroach into the dripline area.
The applicant is also proposing to save the existing trees on the north half of the bufferyard area
along Galpin Blvd. Staff recommends that all hazard or diseased trees within the area be
removed prior to final acceptance of the completed development.

DEVELOPMENT CONTRACT
(Developer Installed Improvements)
EXHIBIT "B"
1. Right to Proceed. Within the plat or land to be platted, the Developer may not
grade or otherwise disturb the earth, remove trees, construct sewer lines, water lines, streets,
utilities, public or private improvements, or any buildings until all the following conditions have
been satisfied: 1) this agreement has been fully executed by both parties and filed with the City
Clerk, 2) the necessary security and fees have been received by the City, 3) the plat has been
recorded with the County Recorder's Office or Registrar of Title's Office of the County where the
plat is located, and 4) the City Engineer has issued a letter that the foregoing conditions have been
satisfied and then the Developer may proceed.
2. Phased Development. If the plat is a phase of a multiphased preliminary plat, the
City may refuse to approve final plats of subsequent phases if the Developer has breached this
Contract and the breach has not been remedied. Development of subsequent phases may not
proceed until Development Contracts for such phases are approved by the City. Park charges and
area charges for sewer and water referred to in this Contract are not being imposed on outlots, if
any, in the plat that are designated in an approved preliminary plat for future subdivision into lots
and blocks. Such charges will be calculated and imposed when the outlots are final platted into lots
and blocks.
3. Preliminary Plat Status. If the plat is a phase of a multi-phased preliminary plat,
the preliminary plat approval for all phases not final platted shall lapse and be void unless final
platted into lots and blocks, not outlots, within two (2) years after preliminary plat approval.
4. Changes in Official Controls. For two (2) years from the date of this Contract, no
amendments to the City's Comprehensive Plan, except an amendment placing the plat in the current
urban service area, or official controls shall apply to or affect the use, development density, lot size,
lot layout or dedications of the approved plat unless required by state or federal law or agreed to in
writing by the City and the Developer. Thereafter, notwithstanding anything in this Contract to the
contrary, to the full extent permitted by state law the City may require compliance with any
amendments to the City's Comprehensive Plan, official controls, platting or dedication requirements
enacted after the date of this Contract.
5. Improvements. The improvements specified in the Special Provisions of this
Contract shall be installed in accordance with City standards, ordinances, and plans and
specifications which have been prepared and signed by a competent registered professional engineer
furnished to the City and approved by the City Engineer. The Developer shall obtain all necessary
GC -1
permits from the Metropolitan Council Environmental Services and other pertinent agencies before
proceeding with construction. The City will, at the Developer's expense, have one or more
construction inspectors and a soil engineer inspect the work on a full or part-time basis. The
Developer shall also provide a qualified inspector to perform site inspections on a daily basis.
Inspector qualifications shall be submitted in writing to the City Engineer. The Developer shall
instruct its project engineer /inspector to respond to questions from the City Inspector(s) and to make
periodic site visits to satisfy that the construction is being performed to an acceptable level of
quality in accordance with the engineer's design. The Developer or his engineer shall schedule a
preconstruction meeting at a mutually agreeable time at the City Council chambers with all parties
concerned, including the City staff, to review the program for the construction work.
6. Iron Monuments. Before the security for the completion of utilities is released, all
monuments must be correctly placed in the ground in accordance with Minn. Stat. § 505.02, Subd.
1. The Developer's surveyor shall submit a written notice to the City certifying that the monuments
have been installed.
7. License. The Developer hereby grants the City, its agents, employees, officers and
contractors a license to enter the plat to perform all work and inspections deemed appropriate by the
City in conjunction with plat development.
8. Site Erosion and Sediment Control. Before the site is rough graded, and before
any utility construction is commenced or building permits are issued, the erosion and sediment
control plan, Plan B, shall be implemented, inspected, and approved by the City. The City may
impose additional erosion and sediment control requirements if they would be beneficial. All areas
disturbed by the excavation and backfilling operations shall be reseeded forthwith after the
completion of the work in that area. Except as otherwise provided in the erosion and sediment
control plan, seed shall be certified seed to provide a temporary ground cover as rapidly as possible.
All seeded areas shall be fertilized, mulched, and disc anchored as necessary for seed retention. The
parties recognize that time is of the essence in controlling erosion and sediment transport. If the
Developer does not comply with the erosion and sediment control plan and schedule of
supplementary instructions received from the City, the City may take such action as it deems
appropriate to control erosion and sediment transport at the Developer's expense. The City will
endeavor to notify the Developer in advance of any proposed action, but failure of the City to do so
will not affect the Developer's and City's rights or obligations hereunder. No development will be
allowed and no building permits will be issued unless the plat is in full compliance with the erosion
and sediment control requirements. Erosion and sediment control needs to be maintained until
vegetative cover has been restored, even if construction has been completed and accepted. After the
site has been stabilized to where, in the opinion of the City, there is no longer a need for erosion and
sediment control, the City will authorize the removal of the erosion and sediment control, i.e. hay
bales and silt fence. The Developer shall remove and dispose of the erosion and sediment control
measures.

clean, on and off site, dirt and debris, including blowables, from streets and the surrounding area
that has resulted from construction work by the Developer, its agents or assigns.
10. Acceptance and Ownership of Improvements. Upon completion and acceptance
by the City of the work and construction required by this Contract, the improvements lying within
public easements shall become City property. After completion of the improvements, a
representative of the contractor, and a representative of the Developer's engineer will make a final
inspection of the work with the City Engineer. Before the City accepts the improvements, the City
Engineer shall be satisfied that all work is satisfactorily completed in accordance with the approved
plans and specifications and the Developer and his engineer shall submit a written statement to the
City Engineer certifying that the project has been completed in accordance with the approved plans
and specifications. The appropriate contractor waivers shall also be provided. Final acceptance of
the public improvements shall be by City Council resolution.
11. Claims. In the event that the City receives claims from laborers, materialmen, or
others that work required by this Contract has been performed, the sums due them have not been
paid, and the laborers, materialmen, or others are seeking payment out of the financial guarantees
posted with the City, and if the claims are not resolved at least ninety (90) days before the security
required by this Contract will expire, the Developer hereby authorizes the City to commence an
Interpleader action pursuant to Rule 22, Minnesota Rules of Civil Procedure for the District Courts,
to draw upon the letters of credit in an amount up to 125% of the claim(s) and deposit the funds in
compliance with the Rule, and upon such deposit, the Developer shall release, discharge, and
dismiss the City from any further proceedings as it pertains to the letters of credit deposited with the
District Court, except that the Court shall retain jurisdiction to determine attorneys' fees.

with the installation of the plat improvements. The park dedication fees shall be the current amount
in force at the time of final platting pursuant to Chanhassen City Ordinances and City Council
resolutions.

balled and burlapped. The trees may not be planted in the boulevard (area between curb and
property line). In addition to any sod required as a part of the erosion and sediment control plan,
Plan B, the Developer or lot purchaser shall sod the boulevard area and all drainage ways on each
lot utilizing a minimum of four (4) inches of topsoil as a base. Seed or sod shall also be placed on
all disturbed areas of the lot. If these improvements are not in place at the time a certificate of
occupancy is requested, a financial guarantee of $750.00 in the form of cash or letter of credit shall
be provided to the City. These conditions must then be complied with within two (2) months after
the certificate of occupancy issued, except that if the certificate of occupancy is issued between
GC -3
October 1 through May 1 these conditions must be complied with by the following July I st. Upon
expiration of the time period, inspections will be conducted by City staff to verify satisfactory
completion of all conditions. City staff will conduct inspections of incomplete items with a $50.00
inspection fee deducted from the escrow fund for each inspection. After satisfactory inspection, the
financial guarantee shall be returned. If the requirements are not satisfied, the City may use the
security to satisfy the requirements. The City may also use the escrowed funds for maintenance of
erosion control pursuant to City Code Section 7 -22 or to satisfy any other requirements of this
Contract or of City ordinances. These requirements supplement, but do not replace, specific
landscaping conditions that may have been required by the City Council for project approval.

The City's failure to promptly take legal action to enforce this Contract shall not be a waiver or
release.
H. Release. This Contract shall run with the land and may be recorded against the
title to the property. After the Developer has completed the work required of it under this Contract,
at the Developer's request the City Manager will issue a Certificate of Compliance. Prior to the

cumulative and in addition to every other right, power or remedy, expressed or implied, now or
hereafter arising, available to City, at law or in equity, or under any other agreement, and each and
every right, power and remedy herein set forth or otherwise so existing may be exercised from time
to time as often and in such order as may be deemed expedient by the City and shall not be a waiver
of the right to exercise at any time thereafter any other right, power or remedy.
K. Assi aug bility. The Developer may not assign this Contract without the written
permission of the City Council. The Developer's obligation hereunder shall continue in full force
and effect even if the Developer sells one or more lots, the entire plat, or any part of it.

material and equipment and the operation of any internal combustion engine, may only occur from
7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. on weekdays, from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on Saturdays with no such activity
allowed on Sundays or on legal holidays. Contractors must require their subcontractors, agents

GC -8

does not constitute final acceptance of the streets by the City.

period.
Q. Soil Treatment Systems. If soil treatment systems are required, the Developer
shall clearly identify in the field and protect from alteration, unless suitable alternative sites are first
provided, the two soil treatment sites identified during the platting process for each lot. This shall
be done prior to the issuance of a Grading Permit. Any violation/disturbance of these sites shall
render them as unacceptable and replacement sites will need to be located for each violated site in
order to obtain a building permit.
R. Variances. By approving the plat, the Developer represents that all lots in the
plat are buildable without the need for variances from the City's ordinances.

T. Proof of Title. Upon request, the Developer shall furnish the City with evidence
satisfactory to the City that it has the authority of the fee owners and contract for deed purchasers to
enter into this Development Contract.
U. Soil Conditions. The Developer acknowledges that the City makes no
representations or warranties as to the condition of the soils on the property or its fitness for
construction of the improvements or any other purpose for which the Developer may make use of
such property. The Developer further agrees that it will indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the
City, its governing body members, officers, and employees from any claims or actions arising out of
the presence, if any, of hazardous wastes or pollutants on the property, unless hazardous wastes or
pollutants were caused to be there by the City.
GC -9

the property. The City makes no representation to the Developer concerning the nature of
suitability of soils nor the cost of correcting any unsuitable soil conditions which may exist. On lots
which have no fill material a soils report from a qualified soils engineer is not required unless the
City's building inspection department determines from observation that there may be a soils
problem. On lots with fill material that have been mass graded as part of a multi-lot grading project,
a satisfactory soils report from a qualified soils engineer shall be provided before the City issues a
building permit for the lot. On lots with fill material that have been custom graded, a satisfactory
soils report from a qualified soils engineer shall be provided before the City inspects the foundation
for a building on the lot.
W. Haul Routes. The Developer, the Developer's contractors or subcontractors
must submit proposed haul routes for the import or export of soil, construction material,
construction equipment or construction debris, or any other purpose. All haul routes must be
approved by the City Engineer
X. Development Signs. The Developer shall post a six foot by eight foot
development sign in accordance with City Detail Plate No. 5313 at each entrance to the project.

shall be removed when the required improvements are completed, except for the final lift of
asphalt on streets. The signs shall contain the following information: project name, name of
developer, developer's telephone number and designated contact person, allowed construction
hours.
Y. Construction Plans. Upon final plat approval, the developer shall provide the
City with two complete sets of full -size construction plans and four sets of 11 "x17" reduced
construction plan sets and three sets of specifications. Within four months after the completion of
the utility improvements and base course pavement and before the security is released, the
Developer shall supply the City with the following: (1) a complete set of reproducible Mylar
as-built plans, (2) two complete full -size sets of blue line/paper as -built plans, (3) two complete sets
of utility tie sheets, (4) location of buried fabric used for soil stabilization, (5) location stationing
and swing ties of all utility stubs including draintile cleanouts, (6) bench mark network, (7) digital
file of as-built plans in both Axf & .tif format (the .dxf file must be tied to the current county
coordinate system), (8) digital file of utility fie sheets in either .doc or .tif format, and (9) a
breakdown of lineal footage of all utilities installed, including the per lineal foot bid price. The
Developer is required to submit the final plat in electronic format.
Z. As -Built Lot Surveys. An as-built lot survey will be required on all lots prior to
the Certificate of Occupancy being issued. The as-built lot survey must be prepared, signed, and
dated by a Registered Land Surveyor. Sod and the bituminous driveways must be installed before
the as -built survey is completed. If the weather conditions at the time of the as-built are not
conducive to paving the driveway and/or installing sod, a temporary Certificate of Occupancy may
be issued and the as-built escrow withheld until all work is complete.
