MEMORANDUM
TO: Todd Gerhardt, City Manager
FROM: Bob Generous, Senior Planner
DATE: October 12, 2015 O
SUBJ: Preliminary Plat Extension — Fretham 19th Addition
Planning Case 2014-08
PROPOSED MOTION
"The Chanhassen City Council approves a one-year extension until October 13,
2016 for the preliminary plat with variances for hardcover and setback for
Fretham 19th Addition subject to the conditions of the preliminary plat approval."
City Council approval requires a majority vote of City Council,
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The applicant is requesting a preliminary plat approval extension for Fretham 19"t'
Addition to permit the development of four lots. Approval of the preliminary plat
extension allows the property owner to proceed with the final platting of the property
without going back through the preliminary plat review process. There is currently a
home on the west side of the property with a non -conforming commercial building in
which the property owner lives in one of the upper units on the east side of the
property.
The requested extension is necessary due to the owner's desire to remain on the
property, ongoing negotiations between the developer and property owner and the
developer's need to prepare appropriate engineering plans to meet the city requirements.
The property is located at the intersection of Bretton Way and Teton Lane.
Section 18-41 of the Chanhassen City Code requires that the subdivider request final
plat approval within one year of the preliminary plat approval unless a request, in
writing, is submitted to the City requesting for good cause for an extension of the
preliminary plat. There have been no amendments to the City Code that would
adversely affect the conditions of approval for the subdivision. All the relevant
conditions of the preliminary plat approval shall remain in force for the development.
All fees shall be those in effect at the time of final plat approval. Staff is recommending
approval of the applicant's request for a one-year extension of the preliminary plat until
October 13, 2016 to create four lots out of the property with the variances for hard cover
and setback on Lot 1. The conditions of preliminary plat approval shall remain in effect
for review of the final plat.

October 12, 2015
Page 2 of 3
BACKGROUND
On October 13, 2014, the Chanhassen City Council approved the following:
• Preliminary plat creating four lots,
• Hard cover variances for Lots 1 and 3 of 7.4 percent (32.4 % hardcover) and 3.2 percent
(28.2% hard cover), respectively; and
• Front setback variance for Lot 1 of 10 feet (20 -foot front setback on Bretton Way).
On March 11, 2013 the Chanhassen City Council approved the change in nonconforming uses at
6411 Bretton Way and adopted performance standards as a guide to the continuing use of the
building.
The Chanhassen City Council approved Curry Farms 21 Addition on July 15, 1988.
RLS 105 dated 6/17/1988 creates the parcel around the building containing commercial uses.
1986 — Property zoned Single Family Residential (RSF) from RI a (residential agricultural).
1970s — Precision Manufacturing Company, parts manufacturing, tool and die.
September 16, 1964 — Registered Land Survey 28 creates the parcels containing the house and
buildings as well as many of the parcels in the neighborhood.
SUBDIVISION
The applicant is requesting preliminary plat approval to create four single-family lots with a
variance from the 25 percent hardcover for Lots 1 and 3, and a setback variance for Lot 1 to
move the buildable area away from the existing driveway which serves the property to the
northeast. The hard cover request is to permit 32.4 percent impervious surface on Lot 1 and 28.2
percent impervious surface on Lot 3, which is necessary to accommodate an existing driveway
serving the properties to the north and not benefiting these lots. The setback variance is to
permit a 20 -foot setback from Bretton Way for Lot 1, which will move the house away from the
existing driveway. Redevelopment of these parcels with new single-family homes would be
beneficial to this neighborhood and the community and eliminate a non -conforming use.

RE: Fretham 191h Addition Extension Request
Fretham 191h Addition — Planning Case #2014-08
Dear Mr. Generous,
Lake West Development is currently making progress on the development of the final plat for Fretham 19th
Addition and would like to continue with the progress for this project. We received approval on October 13,
2014, by the Chanhassen City Council for the preliminary plat.
We respectfully request an extension on the application for approval of the final plat through October 13,
2016 in order to provide the necessary items required for a final plat approval. We are actively continuing
work on this development, however we are working through certain items with the existing land owner that
have caused project delays outside of our control. We appreciate the City's continued partnership in helping
us make this development a reality.
Please let me know if you have any questions regarding our request.
Sincerely,
$u�

3. The drainage and utility easements on the north side of Lots 1 and 3 can be reduced to 10
feet.

development shall be paved.
5. It is the developer's responsibility to coordinate access to the gravel surface with the affected
residents during construction.
6. The proposed retaining wall shall comply with the following:
a) A building permit is required,
b) The design shall comply with the Minnesota Department of Transportation standards for
retaining walls,
c) The drainage design for the wall shall consider the surface runoff that will sheet drain
towards the wall,
d) The wall crosses over property lines and therefore it shall be built in conjunction with the
subdivision and a homeowners association must be formed to own and maintain the wall,
e) An encroachment agreement will be required before the retaining wall building permit is
issued if the retaining wall is to be installed within the platted drainage and utility
easement.
f) The developer shall ensure that the wall construction does not compromise the private
sanitary sewer service or the gas line in the area.
g) The developer shall install a barrier (fence, berm, landscaping or other barrier) between
the private gravel street and the top of the retaining wall.
7. All driveways within the development shall meet the 10% maximum driveway slope. The
developer is encouraged to consider a driveway design that many homeowners desire which
includes a landing (typically 3%) at each end of the driveway (at the street and at the garage).
8. Sewer and water services to each of the proposed four lots were installed by the Curry Farms
2' Addition developer; therefore, the sewer and water lateral fees do not apply.
9. Prior to final plat approval the developer shall identify which of the four lots will receive the
City SAC and City WAC credit.
10. The remaining three lots shall be subject to the City SAC and WAC, 30% of which will be
collected with the final plat at the rate in effect at the time of final plat approval.
11. All lots are subject to the Metropolitan Council Environmental Services Sanitary Access
Charge (MCES SAC), which is paid with the building permit.
12. A portion of the private sanitary sewer service to the home located on 6281 Teton Lane will
encroach into the platted drainage and utility easement; therefore, an encroachment
agreement is required.
