The final plat contains one lot which is consistent with the preliminary plat.
FINAL PLAT
The applicant is requesting final plat approval to replat 8.64 Acres into one lot. Lot 1 is proposed
to house a senior living apartment building and eight townhouses. The site is zoned Planned Unit
Development -Mixed Use District and is located north of Highway 212, east of Great Plains
Boulevard and southwest of 86th Street. Sewer and water are available to the site. Access to the
parcel will be gained off of 86th Street.

The ordinance states, "All lots shall abut for their full required minimum frontage on a public
street as required by the zoning ordinance; or be accessed by a private street; or a flag lot which
shall have a minimum of thirty feet of frontage on a public street."
The lot has street frontage. Access to the lot is gained from a curb cut off of 86th Street.
The subdivision request is a relatively straightforward action and staff is recommending approval
with conditions.
Staff notes that the proposal is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and generally consistent
with the Zoning Ordinance.

SITE CONSTRAINTS
Wetland Protection
The City of Chanhassen Wetland Inventory and the National Wetland Inventory do not indicate
the presence of any wetlands on the subject property. A review of historic aerial photographs
and on-site observations supports the conclusion that there are no wetlands on the subject
property.
Bluff Protection
There are no bluffs on the property.
Shoreland Management
A significant portion of the subject property lies within the shoreland district for Lake Susan.
The development will need to meet the PUD requirements for the DNR shoreland rules. This
includes having a minimum of 50% preserved as green space; they are proposing just over 53%.
In addition, they must meet the minimum standards for stormwater management and erosion
prevention. They have provided a stormwater management plan and an erosion prevention and
sediment control plan. By meeting the requirements of the City and the Watershed District the
applicant will have satisfied the DNR standards.
Floodplain Overlay
This property does not lie within a floodplain.
Bluff Creek Overlay
This property does not lie within the Bluff Creek Overlay District.
SITE GRADING: DRAINAGE
Currently the site has three drainage areas. The majority of the site either drains north to 86th
Street West or south to the Right -of -Way for MN T.H. 212. Approximately 16% of the site
drains to the east to Mission Hills with much of this watershed making it to a storm water pond
located at the intersection of Mission Hills Way and 86th Street West. Under the proposed
condition the site is divided into seven drainage areas that will leave the site at four distinct
locations. A majority of the site will be treated and discharged to the existing storm sewer either
at the intersection of Great Plains Boulevard and 86th Street West or to the storm system in the
SW corner of the site that goes under Great Plains Boulevard and discharges onto 8601 Great
Plains Boulevard.
The applicant has revised the storm water management design so that discharge rates do not
increase from existing rates at any discharge point form the site under all required storm designs.
The proposed plan provides for on-site treatment for all but approximately one acre of the site.
This acre is comprised almost entirely of open space with about 3,700 square feet of roof and
will be directed towards one of two off-site treatment areas.
Any discharge to MN/DOT or work within their right-of-way will require their approval.

Page 5of13
SITE GRADING: EROSION PREVENTION AND SEDIMENT CONTROL
An erosion control plan consistent with Section 19-145 of city code will be required. This
development exceeds the threshold for the NPDES Construction Permit. A Surface Water
Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) will be required for review and approval. Many of the
elements required in the SWPPP have been included in the Grading, Drainage and Erosion
Control Plan sheet C100.
The City has checklist of required SWPPP elements. This checklist will be made available to the
applicant and the consulting engineer for use in their preparation of the SWPPP. The SWPPP
will be required with the final plat and prior to any earth disturbing activities. The NPDES
construction permit must be granted to the applicant prior to any earth disturbing activities.
RETAINING WALLS
The developer is proposing two retaining walls along the south of the proposed, main building
and one retaining wall near the north property line. 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. Walls taller than 6 feet shall not be constructed
with boulder rock. Any wall taller than 4 feet must be designed by a professional engineer
licensed in the state of Minnesota.
The southeastern wall is approximately 180 feet long, with a maximum height of approximately
8 feet. It runs parallel to the walkway around the southeastern side of the main building. The
top and bottom wall elevations must be revised to correspond with the proposed contours.
The southwestern wall is approximately 200 feet long, with a maximum height of approximately
13 feet. It wraps around the walkway on the southwest side of the proposed main building. The
plans shall label the top and bottom elevations of this wall. This wall must include a fence or
other barrier to provide separation from the nearby walkway.
The northern retaining wall is approximately 190 feet long with a maximum height of
approximately 5 feet. This wall wraps around the northern most twin home, running between the
home and Infiltration Basin #5.
TRAFFIC STUDY
The developer commissioned a traffic study to determine what impacts the proposed
development would create compared with not developing the land. The results of the study show
that the intersections of CSAH 101 and Lake Susan Drive, CSAH 101 and West 86th Street, and
West 86t' Street and Mission Hills Drive would have a negligible change in Level of Service and
all the studied intersections would function at acceptable levels.
The City has been contacted by the Mission Hills Gardens Homeowners Association. This HOA
is located nearby on the north side of West 860' Street. The two letters staff has received are
included in this report. From these letters and a discussion with their Vice -President, the HOA's
Todd Gerhardt
Mission Hills P Addition Final Plat — Planning Case 2015-1
February 22, 2016
Page 6of13
main concern is with, not an increase in delay from traffic, but the safety of the left turn from
West 86th Street onto CSAH 101, intersection design as it exists today.
CSAH 101 is a county road, for that reason Carver County has jurisdiction over any changes to
the intersection of CSAH 101 and West 86th Street. City staff has contacted the County to notify
them of the residents' concern in the area. From MnDOT crash data, there has not been a
reported accident at the intersection of CSAH 101 & West 86th Street within the past 5 years,
therefore, it may not be a high priority for a County safety improvement project.
Staff also received notice that residents were concerned about the visibility around West 86th
Street curves when cars are parked on that street. The developer's traffic engineer indicated that
the proposed development is not expected to generate additional parking on West 86th Street due
to three onsite parking lots. Staff has followed up on this issue outside of the development
review process. The follow-up resulted City Council approving a "No Parking" ordinance for a
portion of West 86th Street at the February 23, 2015 meeting.
STREETS
The proposed plan consists of two private streets, Oriole Lane and Oriole Drive, to provide
access to the nine twin homes and the main building and parking lots. The developer's engineer
must submit documentation that the street pavement meets a 7 -ton design.
The developer shall incorporate the recommendations from the traffic study into their plan set:
• Special consideration should be made to limit any sight distance impacts from future
structures, landscaping and signing.
• When designing internal traffic controls, incorporate improvements based on guidelines
established in the MUTCD. In particular, it is important to identify traffic controls at
intersections between internal roadways/driveways to minimize vehicular conflicts and
driver confusion.
• Review truck turning movements to ensure that large vehicles have adequate
accommodations to negotiate internal roadways.
• Modify the raised median at the West 80h Street/Mission Hills Drive intersection and
strip West 86th Street to help delineate the travel/turn lanes.
PARKING & WALKWAYS
The site plan includes two parking lots for the main building and a small parking lot for the twin
homes. The parking lot aisle of the twin home is 24 feet wide, either the aisle must be revised to
26 feet, or the parking spaces must be 20 feet long. The turnaround for the dead-end parking
aisles in the main parking lot must be 10 feet by 26 feet.
The plan set includes turn movements for a fire truck to navigate the medians for entry access to
the main building. The driveways entering the parking lots for the main building must be
widened to accommodate the fire truck turning movement.

The plans include sidewalks and trails throughout the property. Trails and sidewalks must be
constructed per the standard detail plates. The pedestrian ramps shall meet ADA requirements.
WATER MAIN AND SANITARY SEWER MAIN — PRIVATE UTILITIES
All water main and sanitary sewer main constructed in this project shall be privately owned and
maintained and must meet the City's requirements for public utilities. The plans call for 8 -inch
C900 PVC water main and 8 -inch SDR 35 sanitary sewer main to connect to the services stubbed
out in the City's pervious utility projects on West 86th Street.
The watermain crosses a draintile approximately at Station 7+92. This crossing must have an
elevation separation of 18 inches.
The current plan set shows an approximately 14 -foot drop at 90.28%. This elevation drop must
be an inside drop, per Chanhassen standard detail plate, within a sanitary manhole structure.
ASSESSMENTS
This property was assessed and has paid in full for property assessments for the projects that
constructed water main and sanitary sewer main under West 86th Street. Currently, no
assessments are owed by this property.
This parcel has paid the City for one water and sanitary service hook-up. The existing hook-ups
shall be used as a credit for the main building. All additional units must pay a water and sanitary
service partial hook-up fee at the time of final plat. The remaining hook-up fees would be paid
with the building permit.
The developer shall work with the Building Department to determine the City SAC and WAC
fees for the main building.
STORMWATER MANAGEMENT
Article VII, Chapter 19 of City Code describes the required storm water management
development standards. Section 19-141 states that "these development standards shall be
reflected in plans prepared by developers and/or project proposers in the design and layout of site
plans, subdivisions and water management features." This site will need to be compliant with
the City of Chanhassen's MS4 permit. Part III D. 5 requires that new developments with a
disturbance equal to, or greater than, one (1) acre must have no net -increase from pre -
development conditions of stormwater discharge volume, total suspended solids (TSS) and total
phosphorous (TP). The site will also need to be compliant with the NPDES Construction Permit.
The site will fall under the jurisdiction of the Riley Purgatory Bluff Creek Watershed District
and be subject to their stormwater management rule. This rule requires the abstraction of 1.1
inch of runoff from all new impervious surfaces and removal of 90% TSS and 60% TP. This is
the same removal as indicated in Chapter 19 of City Code.
Todd Gerhardt
Mission Hills Yd Addition Final Plat — Planning Case 2015-1

Page 8of13
The applicant is proposing to use filtration as opposed to infiltration. The applicant has
concluded, based upon the geotechnical report, that infiltration is infeasible as the soils are
predominately lean clays which have a low infiltration rate. While this is a condition under
which infiltration is limited, under the requirements of both the MS4 permit and the watershed
district rules, the applicant must implement, to the "maximum extent practicable" volume
reduction techniques other than infiltration. Stormwater re -use for irrigation purposes would be
a method, preferred by city staff, for reducing runoff volume. Given that as much as 4.5 acres
could be irrigated upon final build out, storm water reuse could also result in a significant
reduction in potable water use. The applicant must evaluate the feasibility of other volume
reducing practices and provide to the city and watershed district for review.
The applicant did provide a summary of the outputs from the P8 model they ran to determine
water quality benefits of the proposed practices. The overall annual reductions for the proposed
features are 98% removal for TSS and 94% removal for TP. This meets the requirements for
water quality treatment.
The proposed best management practices will be privately owned. However, as these will be
routed to the City's storm sewer system it is in the city's interest to assure that these function as
designed for their life. It is also required under the city's MS4 permit that we have a mechanism
in place to assure proper operations, maintenance and function of the practices. The applicant
must provide an operations and maintenance manual to the city for review and comment. An
agreement with the watershed district will also be acceptable. The applicant must provide access
to city personnel to inspect the practices and to require maintenance in the event it is not being
adequately performed. A draft maintenance agreement is included as part of this report. This
will be included as part of the development contract.
The design should follow the MN Stormwater Manual guidelines and recommendations
wherever possible to do so. The applicant shall provide justification for any deviations from the
guidelines. For instance, it has been staff s experience that filter socks around drain tile are
prone to failure. The Minnesota Stormwater Manual recommends bedding the underdrain in #57
stone and using a choker course above the bedding.
All basins must have pretreatment of water prior to entering the feature. For those areas where
curb cuts serve as the inlet, rip -rap is an effective energy dissipation method reducing the risk of
scour however, it is an ineffective pre-treatment method. The on-line Minnesota Stormwater
Manual discusses a variety of pre-treatment methods. The applicant should look to this manual
for guidance and select an effective pretreatment based upon the recommendation within the
manual. City staff has found pretreatment chambers, such as the Rain Guardianrm to be an
effective pretreatment practice for curb cut inlets. In areas where storm water is directed to the
basin through a catch basin, a sump manhole, at least three feet in depth should be used. This
includes the three (3) CBMH labeled 26 on sheet C200.
Storm Water Utility Connection Charges
Section 4-30 of code sets out the fees associated with surface water management. A water
quality and water quantity fee are collected. These fees are based on land use type and are

Developer to reflect cost increases and the extended completion date.
6. Security. To guarantee compliance with the terms of this Contract, payment of
special assessments, payment of the costs of all public improvements, and construction of all public
improvements, the Developer shall furnish the City with a letter of credit in the form attached hereto,
from a bank acceptable to the City, or cash escrow ("security") for $1,028,329.50. The amount of the

any violation of the terms of this Contract. If the required public improvements are not completed at
least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the security, the City may also draw it down. If the
SP -2
security is drawn down, the draw shall be used to cure the default. With City approval, the security

completed, (2) iron monuments for lot corners have been installed, (3) all financial obligations to the
City satisfied, (4) the required "record" plans have been received by the City, (5) a warranty security

EXHIBIT "B"
-m1g1 1
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 permits from
the Metropolitan Council Environmental Services and other pertinent agencies before proceeding
GC -1
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.
8a. Erosion Control During Construction of a Dwelling or Other Building. Before a
building permit is issued for construction of a dwelling or other building on a lot, a $500.00 cash
escrow or letter of credit per lot shall also be furnished to the City to guarantee compliance with City
Code § 7-22.
GC -2
9. Clean up. The Developer shall maintain a neat and orderly work site and shall daily
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.
12. Park Dedication. The Developer shall pay full park dedication fees in conjunction
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.
13. Landscaping. Landscaping shall be installed in accordance with Plan D. Unless
otherwise approved by the City, trees not listed in the City's approved tree list are prohibited. The
minimum tree size shall be two and one-half (2'/2) inches caliper, balled and burlapped. The trees
may not be planted in the boulevard (area between curb and property line) along public streets. 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 utilizing a minimum of six (6)
inches of topsoil as a base. Seed or sod shall also be placed on all disturbed areas of the development
utilizing a minimum of six (6) inches of topsoil as base.
A landscape security equal to the value of the landscape plus 10% will be held by the city until city
acceptance of the landscape installation. After satisfactory inspection by City staff, the landscaping
may be accepted. Upon acceptance, 10% of the landscape value will be help for one full growing
season. When final approval is given after the growing season, the remaining security will be
released.
GC -3
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.
14. Warranty. The Developer warrants all improvements required to be constructed by
it pursuant to this Contract against poor material and faulty workmanship. The Developer shall submit
either 1) a warranty/maintenance bond for 100% of the cost of the improvement, or 2) a letter of credit
for twenty-five percent (25%) of the amount of the original cost of the improvements.
A. The required warranty period for materials and workmanship for the utility contractor
installing public sewer and water mains shall be two (2) years from the date of final written City
acceptance of the work.
B. The required warranty period for all work relating to street construction, including
concrete curb and gutter, sidewalks and trails, materials and equipment shall be subject to two (2)
years from the date of final written acceptance.
C. The required warranty period for sod, trees, and landscaping is one full growing
season following acceptance by the City.
15. Lot Plans. Prior to the issuance of building permits, an acceptable Grading, Drainage,
Erosion Control including silt fences, and Tree Removal Plan shall be submitted for each lot for
review and approval by the City Engineer. Each plan shall assure that drainage is maintained away
from buildings and that tree removal is consistent with development plans and City Ordinance.
16. Existing Assessments. Any existing assessments against the plat will be re -spread
against the plat in accordance with City standards.
17. Hook-up Charges.. At the time of final plat approval the Developer shall pay
30% of the City Sewer Hook-up charge and 30% of the City Water hook up charge for each lot
in the plat in the amount specified in Special Provision, Paragraph 8, of this Development
Contract. The balance of the hook-up charges is collected at the time building permits are issued
are based on 70% of the rates then in effect, unless a written request is made to assess the costs
over a four year term at the rates in effect at time of application.
18. Public Street Lighting. The Developer shall have installed and pay for public street
lights in accordance with City standards. The public street lights shall be accepted for City ownership
and maintenance at the same time that the public street is accepted for ownership and maintenance.
A plan shall be submitted for the City Engineer's approval prior to the installation. Before the City
signs the final plat, the Developer shall pay the City a fee of $300.00 for each street light installed in
the plat. The fee shall be used by the City for furnishing electricity and maintaining each public street
light for twenty (20) months.
GC -4
19. Signage. All street signs, traffic signs, and wetland monumentation required by the
City as a part of the plat shall be furnished and installed by the City at the sole expense of the
Developer.
20. House Pads. The Developer shall promptly furnish the City "as -built" plans
indicating the amount, type and limits of fill on any house pad location.
21. Responsibility for Costs.
A. The Developer shall pay an administrative fee in conjunction with the installation
of the plat improvements. This fee is to cover the cost of City Staff time and overhead for items such
as review of construction documents, preparation of the Development Contract, monitoring
construction progress, processing pay requests, processing security reductions, and final acceptance
of improvements. This fee does not cover the City's cost for construction inspections. The fee shall
be calculated as follows:
i) if the cost of the construction of public improvements is less than $500,000,
three percent (3%) of construction costs;
ii) if the cost of the construction of public improvements is between $500,000 and
$1,000,000, three percent (3%) of construction costs for the first $500,000 and
two percent (2%) of construction costs over $500,000;
iii) if the cost of the construction of public improvements is over $1,000,000, two
and one-half percent (2'h%) of construction costs for the first $1,000,000 and
one and one-half percent (1 %2%) of construction costs over $1,000,000.
Before the City signs the final plat, the Developer shall deposit with the City a fee based upon
construction estimates. After construction is completed, the final fee shall be determined based upon
actual construction costs. The cost of public improvements is defined in paragraph 6 of the Special
Provisions.
B. In addition to the administrative fee, the Developer shall reimburse the City for all
costs incurred by the City for providing construction and erosion and sediment control inspections.
This cost will be periodically billed directly to the Developer based on the actual progress of the
construction. Payment shall be due in accordance with Article 21E of this Agreement.
C. The Developer shall hold the City and its officers and employees harmless from
claims made by itself and third parties for damages sustained or costs incurred resulting from plat
approval and development. The Developer shall indemnify the City and its officers and employees

costs incurred in the enforcement of this Contract, including engineering and attorneys' fees.
E. The Developer shall pay in full all bills submitted to it by the City for obligations
incurred under this Contract within thirty (30) days after receipt. If the bills are not paid on time, the
City may halt all plat development work and construction, including but not limited to the issuance
of building permits for lots which the Developer may or may not have sold, until the bills are paid in
full. Bills not paid within thirty (30) days shall accrue interest at the rate of 8% per year.
F. In addition to the charges and special assessments referred to herein, other charges
and special assessments may be imposed such as, but not limited to, sewer availability charges
("SAC"), City water connection charges, City sewer connection charges, and building permit fees.

be in the Carver County Coordinate system.
22. Developer's Default. In the event of default by the Developer as to any of the work
to be performed by it hereunder, the City may, at its option, perform the work and the Developer shall
promptly reimburse the City for any expense incurred by the City, provided the Developer is first
given notice of the work in default, not less than four (4) days in advance. This Contract is a license
for the City to act, and it shall not be necessary for the City to seek a Court order for permission to
enter the land. When the City does any such work, the City may, in addition to its other remedies,
assess the cost in whole or in part.
23. Miscellaneous.
A. Construction Trailers. Placement of on-site construction trailers and temporary job

G. Waivers/Amendments. The action or inaction of the City shall not constitute a
waiver or amendment to the provisions of this Contract. To be binding, amendments or waivers shall
be in writing, signed by the parties and approved by written resolution of the City Council. 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

of the streets. The City shall have complete discretion to approve or reject the request. The City shall
not be responsible for reshaping or damage to the street base or utilities because of snow plowing
operations. The provision of City snow plowing service does not constitute final acceptance of the
streets by the City.
P. Storm Sewer Maintenance. The Developer shall be responsible for cleaning and

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

Subject: Chanhassen Senior Facility Traffic Study
Introduction
SRF has completed a traffic study for the proposed senior living facility development located near
the TH 212/County Highway 101 interchange in the City of Chanhassen (see Figure 1:
Project Location). The main objectives of this study are to review existing operations within the
study area, evaluate the traffic impacts to the adjacent roadway network, and recommend any
necessary improvements to accommodate the proposed development. Furthermore, this study will
provide a comparison between the traffic impacts associated with the proposed development and
those associated with the maximum potential traffic demand under the proposed zoning, which is
assumed to be market rate apartments. The following information provides the assumptions,
analysis and study recommendations offered for consideration.
Existing Conditions
The existing conditions were reviewed to establish a baseline in order to identify any future impacts
associated with the proposed development. The evaluation of existing conditions includes peak
period intersection turning movement counts, field observations and an intersection capacity
analysis.
Data Collection
Peak period turning movement counts were collected by SRF during the week of October 27, 2014
at the following study intersections:
• County Highway 101 and Lake Susan Drive/TH 212 Westbound Ramps
• County Highway 101 and 86th Street
Note that the 86th Street/Mission Hills Drive intersection volumes were derived from County Highway 101/
86th Street intersection turning movement counts and surrounding land use trip generation estimates.
Historical and year 2013 annual average daily traffic (AADT) volumes within the study area were
provided by the Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT).

In addition to the intersection turning movement counts, observations were completed to identify
roadway characteristics within the study area (i.e. roadway geometry, posted speed limits, and traffic
controls). Currently, County Highway 101 is a four -lane divided roadway with a posted speed limit
of 45 miles per hour (mph). 86th Street is a two-lane roadway with no posted speed limit and
parking allowed only along its north side. The study intersections are side -street stop controlled,
except the County Highway 101 /Lake Susan Drive intersection which is signalized. It should be
noted that County Highway 101 is functionally classified as a minor arterial, while other study
roadways are classified as local streets. Existing geometrics, traffic controls, and volumes within the
study area are shown in Figure 2.
Existing Intersection Capacity Analysis
An existing intersection capacity analysis was completed to establish a baseline condition to which
future traffic operations could be compared. The study intersections were analyzed using Synchro/
SimTraffic software (V8.0).
Capacity analysis results identify a Level of Service (LOS) which indicates how well an intersection is
operating. Intersections are ranked from LOS A through LOS F. The LOS results are based on
average delay per vehicle, which correspond to the delay threshold values shown in Table 1. LOS A
indicates the best traffic operation, while LOS F indicates an intersection where demand exceeds
capacity. Overall intersection LOS A though LOS D is generally considered acceptable in the
Twin Cities Metropolitan Area.

For side -street stop controlled intersections, special emphasis is given to providing an estimate for
the level of service of the side -street approach. Traffic operations at an unsignalized intersection
with side -street stop control can be described in two ways. First, consideration is given to the overall
intersection level of service. This takes into account the total number of vehicles entering the
intersection and the capability of the intersection to support these volumes. Second, it is important
to consider the delay on the minor approach. Since the mainline does not have to stop, the majority
of delay is attributed to the side -street approaches. It is typical of intersections with higher mainline
traffic volumes to experience high levels of delay (i.e. poor levels of service) on the side -street
approaches, but an acceptable overall intersection level of service during peak hour conditions.

Results of the existing intersection capacity analysis shown in Table 2 indicate that all study
intersections currently operate at an acceptable overall LOS B or better during the a.m. and p.m.
peak hours. In addition, no significant side -street delays or queuing issues were observed in the field
or traffic simulation at the study intersections. It should be noted that all results shown represent the
SimTraffic analysis due to the proximity of the County Highway 101 /Lake Susan Drive intersection
traffic signal and its impacts on operations at the County Highway 101 /86th Street intersection.

Year 2017 No Build Conditions
To help determine impacts associated with the proposed development, traffic forecasts were first
developed for year 2017 no build conditions (i.e. one year after anticipated completion). The no
build condition takes into account general area background growth and traffic generated by adjacent
developments, if any. The evaluation of year 2017 no build conditions includes details on the
adjacent development, traffic forecasts and an intersection capacity analysis.
Adjacent Development
Based on discussions with City staff, the Preserve at Rice Lake development is expected to be
complete prior to the proposed development. The Preserve at Rice Lake is located north of TH 212,
near the eastern terminus of 86th Street (see Figure 3: Adjacent Development). This adjacent
development will consist of 16 single-family homes and is currently under construction. Motorists
traveling to/from the Preserve at Rice Lake would primarily be expected to utilize 86th Street,
though Mission Hills Lane could also be utilized to access County Highway 101 northbound.
Adjacent development trips were estimated using the ITE Trip Generation Manual, Ninth Edition.
These trips were distributed throughout the area based on the directional distribution shown in
Figure 4, which was developed based on existing travel patterns within the area and engineering
judgment. Results of the trip generation estimates shown in Table 3 indicate that the adjacent
development is expected to generate 12 a.m. peak hour, 16 p.m. peak hour, and 152 daily trips.

To determine the general area background growth rate, historical AADT volumes and the forecasts
presented in the City of Chanhassen 2030 Comprehensive Plan were considered. Based on the information
available, an annual growth rate of one percent was applied to the existing peak hour and daily traffic
volumes. This background growth rate accounts for motorists that are expected to travel through
the study area. The resultant year 2017 no build conditions, including general area background
growth and traffic generated by the adjacent development, are shown in Figure 5.
Year 2017 No Build Intersection Capacity Analysis
To determine how the adjacent roadway network will accommodate year 2017 no build traffic
forecasts, an intersection capacity analysis was completed using Synchro/SitnTraffic software.
Results of the year 2017 no build intersection capacity analysis shown in Table 4 indicate that all
study intersections are expected to continue operating at an acceptable overall LOS B or better
during the a.m. and p.m. peak hours. In addition, no significant side -street delays or queuing issues
were observed in the traffic simulation at the study intersections.

Proposed Development
The proposed development is located along the east side of County Highway 101, north of TH 212
and south of 86th Street. The current development proposal shown in Figure 6 consists of senior
housing including 18 independent living townhomes and a 134 -unit facility offering memory care,
assisted and independent living. The proposed development is expected to be constructed by the
end of the year 2016. Access to the development is proposed along the south side of 86th Street
across from Mission Hills Drive. Further discussion regarding site access is documented later in this
study.

To help determine impacts associated with the proposed development, traffic forecasts were next
developed for year 2017 build conditions (i.e. one year after anticipated completion). The build
condition takes into account general area background growth and traffic generated by the adjacent
and proposed developments. The evaluation of year 2017 build conditions includes details on the
traffic forecasts and an intersection capacity analysis.
Year 2017 Build Traffic Forecasts
To account for traffic impacts associated with the proposed development, trip generation estimates
for the a.m. and p.m. peak hours and a daily basis were developed. These estimates, shown in
Table 5, were developed using the ITE Trip Generation Manual, Ninth Edition. It should be noted that
several land use assumptions were used to identify specific development types and sizes for trip
generation purposes based on discussions with project staff. These assumptions are intended to
provide a realistic development scenario that could occur.

distributed throughout the area based on the directional distribution shown previously in Figure 4.
The resultant year 2017 build conditions, including general area background growth and traffic
generated by the adjacent and proposed developments, are shown in Figure 7.
Year 2017 Build Intersection Capacity Analysis
To determine how the adjacent roadway network will accommodate year 2017 build traffic forecasts,
an intersection capacity analysis was completed using Synchro/SimTraffic software. Results of the
year 2017 build intersection capacity analysis shown in Table 6 indicate that all study intersections
are expected to continue operating at an acceptable overall LOS B or better during the a.m. and p.m.
peak hours. In addition, no significant side -street delays or queuing issues were observed in the
traffic simulation at the study intersections. Given the minimal anticipated impact caused by the
proposed development on study area traffic operations, roadway improvements are not required
under year 2017 build conditions from a traffic operations perspective.

Year 2017 Build Conditions - Alternate Development
While the proposed senior living facility development is not expected to significantly impact traffic
operations within the study area, it should be noted that the proposed zoning of the study property
would allow for a more intense land use. Based on discussions with City staff, the highest intensity
land use under the proposed zoning is assumed to be market rate apartments. Therefore, to better
understand the impacts under an alternate development scenario, traffic forecasts and an
intersection capacity analysis were once again completed.
Year 2017 Build Traffic Forecasts - Alternate Development
To account for traffic impacts associated with the alternate development, trip generation estimates
for the a.m. and p.m. peak hours and a daily basis were developed. These estimates shown in Table 7
were developed using the ITE Trip Generation Manual, Ninth Edition. It should be noted that a density
of approximately 20 dwelling units per acre was assumed based on an inventory of nearby apartment
complexes, which equates to approximately a 175 -unit apartment complex.

Site Plan/Access Review
A review of the proposed site plan was completed to identify any issues and recommend potential
improvements with regard to parking, access spacing, sight distance, traffic control, and circulation.
Parking
As noted previously, on -street parking is allowed along the north side of 86th Street. Neighborhood
concerns were expressed regarding parked cars causing sight obstructions in the vicinity of
horizontal curves along 86th Street. However, since all of the parking demand associated with the
senior living facility is expected to be accommodated on site, the proposed development is not
expected to impact on -street parking.
Access Spacing
The proposed development access is expected to replace an existing field access along the south side
of 86th Street across from Mission Hills Drive. Since the 86th Street/Mission Hills Drive
intersection already exists as a full -access intersection, the proposed development access does not
represent a significant change in access spacing and is in a logical location. It should be noted that an
existing curb cut along County Highway 101 is not expected to be utilized/changed as part of the
proposed development.

Chanhassen Senior Living Developer LLC
Sight Distance
November 21, 2014
Page 16
Based on field observations, horizontal curves exist along County Highway 101 to the north and
south of the 86th Street intersection. Additionally, a vertical crest exists in the terrain of the study
property which limits the sight distance to the south for motorists along 86th Street. Therefore, a
review of the existing sight distance was completed. The required sight distance from a minor street,
as indicated in A Policy on Geometric Design of Highways and Streets by AASHTO, is 500 feet for a
45 mph mainline roadway. Based on the field observations at 86th Street, there is approximately
620 feet of sight distance to the south and more than 1,000 feet of sight distance to the north along
County Highway 101. Therefore, the sight distance available at the County Highway 101/86th Street
intersection is sufficient to clearly identify approaching vehicles. However, special consideration
should be made to limit any sight distance impacts from future structures, landscaping and signing.
Traffic Control/Traffic Circulation
Internal traffic controls were not identified. However, the following should be considered when
designing internal traffic controls:
• Incorporate traffic controls, signing and striping based on guidelines established in the
Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD).
o In particular, it is important to identify traffic controls at intersections between internal
roadways/driveways to minimize vehicular conflicts and driver confusion.
Based on this guidance, stop control should be implemented at the site access to 86th Street to
reduce the potential for driver confusion.
A review of the proposed site circulation was also completed. The movement of general passenger
vehicles within the proposed development is not expected to be an issue. However, truck turning
movements should be reviewed to ensure that large vehicles (e.g. delivery/garbage/recycling trucks)
have adequate accommodations to negotiate internal roadways.
Furthermore, it is recommended that one-way operations be implemented at the access points to the
parking lots of the main senior living facility. One-way operations should then be continued into the
facility pick-up/drop-off zone to provide an orderly flow of traffic.
Finally, it should be noted that the raised median along 86th Street west of Mission Hills Drive will
likely need to be modified to accommodate large vehicles exiting the proposed development. It is
recommended that the raised median be modified near the 86th Street/Mission Hills Drive
intersection to allow for these types of maneuvers. The modification should include striping to help
delineate the travel/turn lanes. An illustration of recommended improvements is presented in
Figure 9.

• An alternative land use scenario was also reviewed to understand the impacts of the highest
intensity use allowed under the proposed zoning, which was assumed to be market rate
apartments.
o Approximately 175 apartment units were assumed, which would be expected to generate
approximately 89 a.m. peak hour, 109 p.m. peak hour, and 1,164 daily trips.

traffic operations, roadway improvements would not be required under year 2017 build
conditions from a traffic operations perspective.
• Parking, access spacing, sight distance, traffic control, and circulation were reviewed in the
Site Plan/Access Review section. Key recommendations and considerations include the
following:
o Special consideration should be made to limit any sight distance impacts from future
structures, landscaping and signing.
o When designing internal traffic controls, incorporate improvements based on guidelines
established in the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices. In particular, it is important to
