Agenda and PacketFrom:Aanenson, Kate To:Meuwissen, Kim Subject:FW: Brewery opening Date:Monday, April 12, 2021 8:14:59 AM Kim, Can you please respond and cc me. Kate From: Matthew Rosati <mrosati@chanhassenbrewing.com> Sent: Friday, April 9, 2021 4:11 PM To: Aanenson, Kate <kaanenson@ci.chanhassen.mn.us> Subject: Re: Brewery opening CAUTION: This email originated from outside of the organization. Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe. Kate, I would like to apply for a temporary liquor license extension- I have attached a picture of the temporary fencing that would go up. It would take up 5 parking stalls on the western parking area. The space would have picnic tables only. No heaters, food trucks or tents will be in place. I communicated with Target and they are aware that overflow parking will be pushed to their western parking lot. If any issues arise, I provide them with my direct contact information. Please let me know what additional information you need from me. Matthew Rosati On Fri, Apr 9, 2021 at 2:45 PM Aanenson, Kate <kaanenson@ci.chanhassen.mn.us> wrote: You can do either or.

The process resulted in a strategic plan covering FY 2021-2024. The plan consists of five strategic priorities — the issues of greatest importance to the City of Chanhassen over the next three years. Associated with each priority is a set of desired outcomes, key outcome indicators, and performance targets, describing expected results and how the results will be measured. The plan also includes strategic initiatives that will be undertaken to achieve the targeted outcomes. The planning effort began with an examination of the operating environment, followed by a SWOT analysis. On February 19-20, 2021, the City Council and senior management team held strategic planning sessions. They developed a set of priorities, key outcomes and performance targets, and outlined draft versions of the organization’s vision, mission and values. Based upon those priorities, the City’s senior management team met on March 9, 2021 to identify a set of strategic initiatives and develop detailed action plans. The strategic priorities, key outcome indicators, performance targets and strategic initiatives are summarized here and on the following page.

City of Chanhassen Strategic Plan FY 2021 – 2024 | March 2021 4 STRATEGIC PLANNING PROCESS Strategic planning is a process that helps leaders examine the current state of the organization, determine a desired future state, establish priorities, and define a set of actions to achieve specific outcomes. The process followed by the City of Chanhassen was designed to answer four key questions: (1) Where are we now? (2) Where are we going? (3) How will we get there? (4) What will we do? The process is divided into a development phase and an implementation phase. The full process is depicted below.? Process Initiation – Setting Expectations, Reviewing Current Situation The strategic planning process began with a meeting of the consultant and the City’s senior management team on January 26, 2021. The meeting included a review of strategic planning principles, a discussion of the upcoming planning retreat, an examination of vision, mission and value statements, past strategic planning efforts, and current challenges. The session concluded with a set of recommended principles for the vision, mission and value statements, and a process for conducting the planning retreat. DEVELOPMENT IMPLEMENTATION Where we are Where we’re going How we’ll get there What we’ll do Scan the environment – Conduct internal and external analysis (SWOT) – Develop Strategic Profile– Identify Strategic Challenges Define our Mission – Articulate Core Values– Set a Vision – Establish Goals– Identify Key Intended Outcomes Develop Initiatives – Define Performance Measures– Set Targets and Thresholds –Cascade throughout organization Create Detailed Action Plans –Establish Accountability: Who, What, When – Identify Success Indicators – Provide Resources 1. Where are we now? 2. Where are we going? 3. How will we get there? 4. What will we do? City of Chanhassen Strategic Plan FY 2021 – 2024 | March 2021 5 Setting Direction: Vision, Value Proposition, Mission, and Values On February 19-20, 2021, the City held a retreat to develop the strategic plan. As they addressed the question of “Where are we now?” the group was challenged to define the current organizational culture and its value proposition—understanding that an organization’s culture, and the value proposition it puts forth provide the foundation for the way in which services are delivered and strategic direction is set. The three value propositions and core cultures are summarized as follows. THREE VALUEPROPOSITIONS Operational Excellence (ex: Wal-Mart, Southwest Airlines) • Deliver quality, price and ease of purchase that no one else can match! Product/Service Leadership (ex: Apple, Google) • The best product/service...period! Customer Intimacy (ex: Nordstrom, Ritz-Carlton) • The best total solution! (acts as a partner with you) FOUR CORE CULTURES Control Culture (example: Military - command and control) Strengths: Systematic, clear, conservative Weaknesses: Inflexible, compliance more important than innovation Competence Culture (ex: Research Lab – best and brightest) Strengths: Results oriented, efficient, systematic Weaknesses: Values can be ignored, human element missing, over planning Collaboration Culture (example: Family-teams) Strengths: Manages diversity well, versatile, talented Weaknesses: Decisions take longer, group think, short-term oriented Cultivation Culture (example: Non-profit/religious group- mission/values) Strengths: Creative, socially responsible, consensus oriented Weaknesses: Lacks focus, judgmental, lack of control City of Chanhassen Strategic Plan FY 2021 – 2024 | March 2021 6 The group engaged in an extended discussion regarding value proposition, its relationship to organizational culture, and how the City actually operates. It was generally agreed that the City desires to have a customer intimate approach, but that operational excellence has been important and will continue to be important for financial stability. Based upon that understanding, operational excellence was determined to be the primary value proposition, with customer intimacy as a secondary focus.

They examined a range of concepts and statements from other cities, spent time reflecting and debating their purpose and their long-term aspirations for the community. A brainstorming process ensued, resulting in the identification of key concepts the group favored for each statement. These were then used by the consultant over the succeeding weeks to create draft statements. The proposed vision, mission and value statements are listed below. MISSION STATEMENT Our mission is to serve the public. We do this through the delivery of reliable, cost-effective services designed to provide a safe, sustainable community. VISION STATEMENT Chanhassen is a safe, welcoming community for all generations with engaged residents, abundant natural amenities and vibrant businesses, supported by valued services that make this a great place to call home.

This was done via a SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats) analysis--a process that examines the organization’s internal strengths and weaknesses, as well as the opportunities and threats in the external environment. To facilitate this, a SWOT questionnaire was distributed to the City Council and senior staff in advance of the planning session. Using the SWOT data, a small group review process revealed the most frequently mentioned characteristics in each area. STRENGTHS • Good financial stewards (AAA Bond Rating) • Competent and dedicated employees (motivated) • Flexible/adaptable/collaborative (open to change) WEAKNESSES • Lack of investment (On staff, facilities, infrastructure, technology and services) • Planning (Financial, strategic, policies) • Trust (Internal and external) • Develop/redevelopment focus • Staff utilization/leverage • Collaboration (Residents, Stakeholders, neighboring communities) • Long-term visioning/planning OPPORTUNITIES • Lack of trust • Long-term financial planning – infrastructure – budgets • COVID has amplified anxiety and awareness to existing issues • Security of assets THREATS SWOT Analysis City of Chanhassen Strategic Plan FY 2021 – 2024 | March 2021 10 The group used this information to identify those opportunities that would be helped the most by the organization’s inherent strengths and which external threats were most likely to exacerbate their weaknesses. STRENGTHS LEVERAGING OPPORTUNITIES (Make good things happen) • Development/Redevelopment • Staff utilization • Collaboration • Long-Term planning/visioning WEAKNESSES EXACERBATED BY THREATS (Keep bad things from happening) • Lack of long-term, integrated financial planning and investment • Lack of trust (Council-staff, Community-city) • Poor communication (Silos, internal, to community) • Inadequate information (Poor processes) a great place to call home City of Chanhassen Strategic Plan FY 2021 – 2024 | March 2021 11 Following this exercise, the group examined the results, and engaged in additional brainstorming to identify the strategic issues and challenges facing the organization. STRATEGIC ISSUES/CHALLENGES • Effective communication (external, two ways) • Staff utilization and communication • Building trust • Clear vision/visioning (big picture) • Unreasonable expectations – identifying/discussing reality • Long term consolidated planning • Defining levels of service (LOS) • Innovation • Technology (modernize, utilize – security, support) • Infrastructure • Buildings and facilities assets • Reliable internet • Economy • Population Growth • Climate impacts • Staffing/workforce • Development/Redevelopment • Pace of growth • Citizen engagement/education (two-way) • Aging population • Changing demographics • Performance reporting/metrics • Operations Based upon the challenges and issues identified, a facilitated discussion ensued to determine the highest priorities for the strategic planning period. The following priorities emerged as the most important over the next three years. FINANCIAL SUSTAINABILITY ASSET MANAGEMENT DEVELOPMENT & REDEVELOPMENT OPERATIONAL EXCELLENCE COMMUNICATIONS City of Chanhassen Strategic Plan FY 2021 – 2024 | March 2021 12 Defining the Priorities To clarify the meaning of each priority, the group identified key concepts which were used at the retreat to create guidance, and ultimately will be used to create definitions. FINANCIAL SUSTAINABILITY • Long-term planning, good value, compensation, risk tolerance/ management, investing in current levels of service, revenue management ASSET MANAGEMENT • Traditional underground, buildings, equipment/fleet, technology, parks/land/trails, security, lakes/water DEVELOPMENT & REDEVELOPMENT • Aesthetically pleasing, balanced, planful/mindful, fiscally responsible, value-added, proactive, not reactive, planning, supportive infrastructure, innovation, maintain/support OPERATIONAL EXCELLENCE • Levels of service, work processes, responsiveness, efficiency, workforce: culture, staffing, training, technology support COMMUNICATIONS • Two-way, engagement, balance-don’t overwhelm, strategic, timely, accurate, open, internal, integrated-non-silo Key Outcomes, Indicators, and Targets by Priority Based upon the definitions, the group determined the most important outcomes to be achieved for each priority, defined Key Outcome Indicators (KOI’s), and developed Performance Targets. KOI’s define progress toward desired outcomes. Performance Targets define successful outcomes, expressed in measurable terms. The alignment created between priorities, outcomes and targets is important, not only for clarity, but also for maintaining a disciplined focus on the desired results.

KELLY DAVIDSON CITIZEN ACTION REQUEST Kelly Davidson asked that the Council consider modifying Ordinance 639 to allow chickens on properties of less than one acre. He cited other Minnesota cities who have a chicken ordinance and their requirements. Community Development Director Kate Aanenson provided background on developing the Ordinance, which was passed in 2019. The City of Chanhassen surveyed 62 cities. During the process of developing the Ordinance, the City noted some potential issues with chicken ownership including noise, nuisance, and the attraction of predatory animals. The Planning Commission recommended the one-acre limit. If the Council directs, staff can go back and look at the rational basis and unintended consequences of this lot size as well as the history of chickens in Chanhassen. Mayor Ryan stated that the item will come to a future work session. ANN MILLER CITIZEN ACTION REQUEST Ann Miller outlined that the property owned by the city bordering Silver Lake and Pleasant View Road is to be improved for drainage into Silver Lake. She proposed that the public be allowed access to Silver Lake for non-motorized watercraft. Director of Public Works/City Engineer Charles Howley responded that there was a project in its final stages of development for that area which would install catch basins on Pleasant View Road to filter water before it enters Silver Lake. The property is designated as a park but has no amenities, trails, or activity. There is no plan, at present, to make access to the lake but the topic City Council Minutes – March 22, 2021 3 could be revisited internally. The project will provide access to get down the slope for the purposes of construction which would be a way to get down the hill from Pleasant View Road. Ms. Miller stated she had come before the Council in 2018 as well. The neighbors feel there should be a wooded path to access the lake and canoes allowed to harvest the wild rice. Mayor Ryan asked Mr. Howley to discuss with Parks and Recreation Director Jerry Ruegemer and provide the Council with information on access to the lake, history of the lake, and the information on which portions of the lake are split between the cities of Chanhassen and Shorewood so that the Council can gain a better understanding of the situation. Mayor Ryan requested that Mr. Howley follow up with Ms. Miller. Mayor Ryan added that, wherever there is a lake, people are requesting lake access. It would be helpful if the Council had documentation on the process for requesting lake access and docks. BRIDGET REITER - MAYOR FOR A DAY ESSAY CONTEST HONORABLE MENTION DESIGNATION Sixth grader Bridget Reiter was recognized by the Council as an Honorable Mention designee for the League of Minnesota Cities Mayor for a Day essay contest. Mayor Ryan read a letter from the Council congratulating Ms. Reiter. FIRE DEPARTMENT/LAW ENFORCEMENT UPDATE. FIRE DEPARTMENT UPDATE Fire Chief Don Johnson gave a report on Fire Department Activity for the month of February. The Fire Department responded to 66 calls for service including three responses for mutual aid. The department continues to conduct trainings. Fire Chief Johnson was able to sit on an interview panel to assist the City of Maple Grove in a new hire. The Fire Department collaborated with Mr. Ruegemer to set up a Minnesota Department of Health statewide COVID-19 testing site from March 11-13 and March 18-20. Golf Zone has completed preliminary fire inspections for their remodel. Chanhassen Brewery has completed fire and life safety inspections and the new owners of Olive Branch (now Elysian Senior Homes) are looking to correct fire code issues within the next few weeks. Mayor Ryan asked about fire danger due to the high winds and dry conditions. How can residents determine if it is safe to burn? City Council Minutes – March 22, 2021 4 Fire Chief Johnson stated that the most current information about recreation fires and open burning was available on the City website. If any major changes are necessary, the applicable fire conditions and restrictions as they change will be updated. LAW ENFORCEMENT UPDATE Lieutenant Lance Pearce gave an update on law enforcement activities which included 720 patrol calls, 38 of which were Felony (Group A) calls, 12 were misdemeanors, 318 were non-criminal, and 352 were traffic related. Theft dominated the Group A activities with Medical and Alarms highest in Group B activities. Traffic-related activity included 17 driving complaints, 215 traffic stops, 30 crashes, and 107 citations. February is historically the least busy month for law enforcement in Chanhassen. According to the data, domestic calls are down from January 2021, arrests are slightly up, and mental health is trending down and returning toward the average. OLD BUSINESS. None. PUBLIC HEARING. RESOLUTION NO. 2021-11: MODIFICATION TO THE DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM FOR THE DOWNTOWN CHANHASSEN REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT AREA AND ESTABLISHMENT OF TAX INCREMENT FINANCING DISTRICT NO. 12 Ms. Aanenson gave an overview of the proposed Lakes of Chanhassen project and addressed questions asked by the Economic Development Authority (EDA) during their March 8, 2021 meeting regarding the development of a Tax Increment Financing (TIF) district. The EDA had asked about other senior housing projects in Chanhassen. There has not been a senior housing project since 2002. There are currently six projects including Moments of Chanhassen, which is pending. Some of these senior housing developments are focused on memory care, assisted living, and affordable housing. The developers of Lakes of Chanhassen performed a market study and found there is a demand for affordable senior housing in Chanhassen. The Lakes of Chanhassen developers is seeking a density bonus by designating 50 of their 110 units as affordable housing - housing designated at 60% of the median income. Ms. Aanenson reviewed that these income limits were $43,440 for a single household, $49,460 for two-person household, and $55,860 for a three-person household. Ms. Aanenson introduced Ehlers Senior Municipal Advisor Nick Anhut. Mr. Anhut discussed the use of TIF for the Lakes of Chanhassen project. City Council Minutes – March 22, 2021 5 TIF is a financial tool to capture and utilize most of the increased property tax revenue from new development to create a new tax revenue. The tool uses a portion to help finance construction of the building and is used to encourage certain types of development which may not reasonably occur without assistance - such as development of affordable housing. A property within a TIF district does not have a difference in taxes paid; however, taxes are separately remitted for a specific use. Taxes derived from a school operating referendum, fiscal disparities or state property taxes are not remitted as TIF. The process to create a TIF district includes preparation of a TIF plan which identifies the use of financial resources, a budget, the property, and a document which is circulated to the County and local School District. To date, there have not been any comments received from Carver County or the School District. The Planning Commission reviewed the plan attesting that it complies with land use regulations and the EDA recommended the plan and serves as the administrative arm to administer financial resources. The public hearing portion of the process is an opportunity to receive public comment and feedback. Should the Council choose to move forward with a resolution the plan will go back to the EDA to administer over the life of the TIF district according to the terms negotiated by the EDA. The proposed TIF district is designed to assist in providing affordable housing. A TIF district lifespan is 26 years total and requires that at least 40% of the units must be restricted for occupancy at affordable levels. This will be tested annually. Revenues are limited to assist affordable housing projects within the TIF district but also as “pooling” to assist throughout Chanhassen, subject to EDA approval. The TIF plan for District 12 specifies the purpose, geography, maximum term, timing, and the number of affordable units is 45% of the available units. The recommended term is from 2023 to 2048. Carver County assessors estimate an $18.7 million value for the property once it is built, which equates to $5.6 million in TIF revenue over a 26-year life span. 90% will be budgeted for affordable housing projects with up to 10% retained for potential administrative and reporting costs incurred by the City. Any unused part of the 10% may also be budgeted for the affordable housing projects. The TIF plan finds that “but for” the use of public assistance this project would not be reasonably expected to occur and would not proceed through private investment. Anticipated rents, operating expenditures, and costs were reviewed and it was affirmed that this project demonstrates a gap in financing. TIF will replace potential lost revenue to support the level of mortgage necessary to build the $23 million development. City Council Minutes – March 22, 2021 6 The Chanhassen EDA serves as an administrative arm and requires the build to meet a certain standard. The City does not contribute funds to create the development. If the developer provides 50 out of 110 units as affordable housing, the City of Chanhassen will administer the TIF district and issue a $3 million pay-as-you-go TIF note. The TIF note is a promise that, should the developer come through, the EDA will reimburse for up to $3 million of construction. This $3 million is generated from the 90% and there is no upfront funding required. Anticipated first revenue should be received in 2023 with an estimated 16 years of collection before the note is paid off. After the $3 million is taken out, an anticipated $2 million is “pooled” and can be used for affordable housing needs. This money is available after year 17. Councilwoman Schubert asked if the $2 million in additional funding would require another public hearing to use those funds. Mr. Anhut stated that there was no requirement for a public hearing as long as the project met the qualifications of affordable housing. Councilwoman Schubert clarified that it just needs to be affordable housing but not necessarily senior affordable housing. Mr. Anhut confirmed that it needs to meet statutory requirements as affordable housing. Councilwoman Rehm asked about the process of determining TIF boundaries. Mr. Anhut stated that the boundaries are based on existing lot lines and are not combined with property or subdivisions. The lines are consistent with County tax lines. Councilwoman Rehm asked if the development is no longer required to have affordable housing after the TIF note has been paid off. Mr. Anhut confirmed that the project is required to provide affordable housing as long as it is receiving assistance. Mayor Ryan asked about the larger TIF map and what the boundary lines represented. Mr. Anhut stated that the EDA has established an area signified by darker black lines surrounding the Downtown Redevelopment project area - a specific area for redevelopment and housing tools such as TIF. This project will not change the boundaries of that area. Mayor Ryan opened the public hearing. No comments were received prior to or during the meeting. City Council Minutes – March 22, 2021 7 Mayor Ryan closed the public hearing. Resolution #2021-11: Councilman Campion moved, Councilwoman Rehm seconded that the City Council approves the attached resolution adopting a modification to the Redevelopment Plan for the Downtown Chanhassen Redevelopment Project area and approves a Tax Increment Finance Plan for Tax Increment Financing District No. 12.

The cost exceeded the $1.2 million budgeted for Chanhassen’s portion of construction costs. Carver County granted a 5-year interest-free loan to pay for additional construction costs. The City Council was presented with an amended Joint Powers Agreement outlining the repayment plan. In 2020 the City paid $497,746.28 of the cost.

Park and Recreation Commission Minutes – February 23, 2021 3 MIXED USE IN CHANHASSEN PARKS UPDATE Ms. Sarles discussed the use of Chanhassen parks by private entities for commercial gain. Past Park and Recreation Commission discussion had included City liability, injury, and the potential for sexual assault. The City consulted City Attorney Andrea McDowell Poehler who referenced Chanhassen City Code Sec. 14-58 regarding public gathering permits: A permit shall be obtained from the city before participating in any of the following activities in a city park: (1) Carnivals; (2) Community celebrations; (3) Gatherings of 50 or more persons, including picnics and political gatherings; and (4) Contests and exhibitions, including, among other things, those that require exclusive use or charging admission. Current code allows paid, private programming in City parks, unless the City has scheduled another event for the same location at the same time, or unless the use is for a specific public gathering that falls under current City code. If an incident should occur, Attorney McDowell Poehler referenced Minnesota State Statute, M.S. 466.03 subd. 6e, which states that cities have statutory immunity from claims relating to the operation and maintenance of parks. Meaning, so long as the City isn’t willfully making or maintaining a condition that is likely to cause death or serious bodily harm, the City is immune from most claims relating to parks. Provided the event is not a City program and the City has no involvement, it would not be liable for acts or failures to act by the individuals leading the program or any injuries to participants. Ms. Sarles asked the Park and Recreation Commission to direct staff if they should explore additional options for application or permits or leave it as is. Staff’s main concern is if the activities might distract from the enjoyment of parks by other residents and making sure the quality of parks is preserved. Commissioner Peck asked if, hypothetically, an individual wished to conduct private tennis lessons, would a background check be required? Ms. Sarles stated that a background check was not required and the City would not be liable if something would occur. Commissioner Peck asked specifically if a child were molested by the individual providing lessons. Would the City have a moral responsibility? Ms. Sarles stated that it would be the City’s preference to have background checks for groups coming in and using the parks. Currently, there is one person using the park for tennis lessons who does undergo a background check. Park and Recreation Commission Minutes – February 23, 2021 4 Commissioner Peck stated he felt the City had a moral responsibility if a child would be abused. Ms. Sarles stated that, currently, background checks run about 4 weeks, especially toward the summer. The City is looking at how to streamline the process. Commissioner Peck stated he has worked with a company that does background checks and uses them for baseball. Results are typically available within two days. Mr. Ruegemer asked Commissioner Peck to provide him with information on the company that he has used. REPORTS. 2021 FEBRUARY FESTIVAL EVALUATION Recreation Supervisor Priya Tandon gave an overview of Chanhassen’s February Festival. Due to the executive orders and restrictions on the number of people allowed at events, there was a virtual fishing contest and medallion hunt. The fishing contest had 284 tickets purchased. Participants had a week to submit their fish in one of five categories: Northern, Sunfish, Crappie, Walleye, or Perch. Submissions came from 16 lakes across Carver County. Prizes were awarded to the top 50 fish measured by length - 49 of those were Northern. There were 154 fish submitted and the winning Northern was 36.25 inches from Lake Waconia. Tickets were $10 which resulted in $2,840. 220 people participated in the fishing contest which is below half of the typical participation. $4,500 in fishing prizes were given away, donated by local sponsors. T-Mobile was the title sponsor and their donation covered printing, publishing, and prizes. The medallion hunt was sponsored by Charter Bank and the medallion was located at Lake Ann Park near the fishing pier. The bank helped write and post the clues and put together a $500 prize basket. Ms. Tandon recommended looking at the fishing rules for the 2022 contest to see if they should be modified based on species. The Park and Recreation Commission may also consider how best to divvy out prizes to best serve participants. Chair Boettcher agreed that the prizes seem unequal and recommended adding GPS locations where fish are caught. Ms. Tandon stated that the prizes were spread out to discourage cheating. She mentioned that there had been some comments that a leaderboard would be helpful but it had been decided that might affect the integrity of the contest. Overall, it seemed like participants read the rules and were fair in their submissions. Park and Recreation Commission Minutes – February 23, 2021 5 COMMISSION MEMBER COMMITTEE REPORTS. None.

Prepared By Matt Unmacht, Water Resources Coordinator File No: SWMP 13G PROPOSED MOTION “The City Council authorizes execution of the 2021 Aquatic Invasive Species Watercraft Inspection Agreement with Carver County.” Approval requires a Simple Majority Vote of members present. SUMMARY The purpose of this agreement is to help prevent the introduction of new Aquatic Invasive Species (AIS) into Lake Ann, Lake Susan, and Lotus Lake through AIS education and inspections. The overall cost of the program is $59,796.44 but the cost to the City is not­to­exceed $18,500. The agreement has been reviewed by both City and County staff. BACKGROUND The overall program costs $59,796.44, all of which is to be paid by the City to the County. However, the City is sharing the cost of the program with Riley Purgatory Bluff Creek Watershed District (RPBCWD) and the Lotus Lake Conservation Alliance (LLCA). RPBCWD has agreed to pay $32,000 and the LLCA has agreed to pay $9,296.44. Written agreements for the respective financial contributions with both organizations have been obtained. The City has financially supported this program since 2014. This is a budgeted expense coming from the Surface Water Management Fund. Lake Ann and Lake Susan will receive 630 Inspection Hours, and Lotus Lake will receive 2413 Inspection Hours. The increase at Lotus Lake is due to the LLCA financial contribution to the program.

BACKGROUND While Christmas Lake has not been identified as impaired by the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency, a lack of action on this eroded ravine could risk the lake becoming impaired in the future, which would mandate that the City allocate significant time, resources, and money towards improving water quality in Christmas Lake.  The existing sanitary sewer line is also in jeopardy of being exposed and has already been previously exposed resulting in a short term repair.

CITY OF CHANHASSEN BY: _____________________________________________ Elise Ryan, Mayor BY: _____________________________________________ Laurie Hokkanen, City Manager Dated: _______________, 2021. STANTAC CONSULTING SERVICES, INC. BY: _____________________________________________ Its Stantec Consulting Services Inc. 7500 Olson Memorial Highway, Ste 300, Golden Valley, MN 55427 March 24, 2021 File: 1481-0000 Attention: Matt Unmacht Water Resources Coordinator City of Chanhassen 7700 Market Blvd P.O. Box 147 Chanhassen, MN 55317 Dear Mr. Matt, Reference: Cranes Vineyard Design and Construction On January 1, 2021, Wenck joined Stantec (Stantec), a community of designers, scientists, engineers, and planners who collaborate across disciplines and markets to develop innovative solutions. Stantec understands that you are looking for a proposal to develop construction ready plans and construction observation for the Cranes vineyard ravine stabilization project and sediment delta removal. We previously developed a concept plan and preliminary construction cost es timate in a joint project with Minnehaha Creek Watershed District and the City of Chanhassen. This concept plan will provide the starting point for final design allowing us to quickly and effectively complete construction ready documents. To validate our assumptions made in the concept plan development and to develop a construction ready design, Stantec proposes the following scope of work. Virtual Kick-Off and Site Visit to Truth Current Condition Stantec will begin the project with a virtual design kick-off meeting that with include the City, Stantec, and HTPO. Stantec will have an on-site investigation with City and District representatives to verify the current condition of the ravine and note any significant changes that may have occurred since the development of the concept plan. HTPO will also be invited to this on-site visit. While onsite, we will take photos, necessary measurements and field notes to assist with a construction ready design package and to estimate material quantities. This work will include measuring the sediment delta at the outlet of the Cranes Vineyard channel into Christmas Lake. To minimize the expense of the site visit and final design, this proposal does not include a n existing conditions site survey except for measuring the sediment delta. W e will work from the plan set and in-the- field staking and direction with the contractor to complete the design intent. Property Owner Communication and Coordination Stantec has budgeted 16 hours for property owner contact related to describing the work, schedule, methods of construction and coordination with the trail design and construction. It is anticipated this work March 24, 2021 Mr. Matt Unmacht Page 2 of 4 Reference: Cranes Vineyard Design and Construction will begin at design and continue through construction. It is assumed the City will take the lead on property owner contact and Stantec will be engaged as needed. Construction-Ready Design and Bidding At this stage in the project, we will complete final design drawings and specification references. We anticipate that the project will be under $100,000 for construction and that a Request for Quote process to pre-qualified contractors will be sufficient, requiring fewer construction and material specifications. We will reference MN DOT and/or product specifications for each of the bid form line items, including materials and distribute the RFQs to pre-qualified contractors that are familiar with and capable of completing this work. The design plans will include the channel stabilization work and the sediment delta removal. It is understood the City is interested in constructing a trail within the easement but that design work will not be done by Stantec. If at the discretion of the City the trail work will be included in the request for quotes. It is understood HTPO will be responsible for easement work and Stantec will provide input to make sure the channel restoration plans are current with the easement. Stantec will attend a pre-bid meeting with City and District staff and contractors to answer questions during the quote process. We have budgeted 2 hours on site for the pre-quote meeting, travel time and expenses and 1 hour back in the office to prepare and distribute a Notice to Proceed. An additional four house is budgeted to coordinate HTPO plans within the quote package and easement work. Tree Marking for Removal Stantec has developed a system of marking trees for removal that allows a negotiation process to keep landowners engaged in the project and to get their approval for tree removals. To complete this process, Stantec will go out to the site and mark all the proposed trees for removal, using red ribbon to indicate trees required for removal that meet project goals and allow for safe construction. Pink ribbon indicates trees that would be beneficial to the project if they were removed. After all the proposed trees are marked with red or pink ribbon, the landowners are given green ribbon and are given 1 or 2 weeks to place green ribbon over the marked trees that they would like to discuss for saving. We will return onsite and walk through the site with the landowners to discuss their concerns and reasoning for saving trees. Through this discussion we will negotiate which trees will be saved and which trees will be removed. The ribbon will remain on the trees through construction, with the contractor given the direction of removing all trees marked with red or pink ribbon and that any tree with green, even if there is also red or pink ribbon, is to be saved. With liquidated damages charged for any green tree damaged or removed. Construction Observation To kick-off construction, Stantec will attend a pre-construction meeting with City and District staff and contractors to review project requirements, submittals and to walk through the project. At this time, we will also complete the field staking required to give the contractor direction for the location and installation of the stabilization practices.

Based on our experience with this type of project, we have familiarity with several contractors that qualify for this kind of work and have provided an estimate for construction observation based on an estimated 3 weeks of construction and 3 visits per week. An additional 1 week for revegetation is estimated with 3 visits per week. If additional time is required, we will notify the City as early as possible and will continue to invoice extra time on a time and material basis using the rates set in this proposal. We look forwarding to discussing this proposal and are happy to review our approach and the scope of work. Should you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact or Sarah Harding.

Kate, I would like to apply for a temporary liquor license extension- I have attached a picture of the temporary fencing that would go up. It would take up 5 parking stalls on the western parking area. The space would have picnic tables only. No heaters, food trucks or tents will be in place. I communicated with Target and they are aware that overflow parking will be pushed to their western parking lot. If any issues arise, I provide them with my direct contact information. Please let me know what additional information you need from me. Matthew Rosati On Fri, Apr 9, 2021 at 2:45 PM Aanenson, Kate <kaanenson@ci.chanhassen.mn.us> wrote: You can do either or.

Enhancement Plan 1 1.0 Context and Goals for this Ecological Enhancement Plan This document was written to guide enhancement and stewardship efforts of ecological resources within Reach R4 of Upper Riley Creek (i.e. the Upper Riley Creek Stabilization Project, or Project) as shown in Figure 1-1. The project partners include the Riley Purgatory Bluff Creek Watershed District (RPBCWD), and city of Chanhassen (City). As noted in Section 8.0 of this plan, a cooperative agreement between the RPBCWD and City will be developed for activities related to construction and maintenance of a resulting project. This Ecological Enhancement Plan documents the goals of the partnership for the Upper Riley Creek Stabilization Project and establishes roles and responsibilities of Project partners for the estimated 20-year life of the agreement. Figure 1-1 Location of Upper Riley Creek Stabilization Project 2 The partners will work collaboratively to review this ecological enhancement plan and financial prospectus that collectively establish leadership by each organization in site management tasks. The financing plan in Section 9.0 includes outlines the partners responsible for leading and financing the major project tasks. 2.0 Vision, Goals, and Project Approach The vision for this Project is to provide an ecologically diverse stream reach that significantly reduces streambank erosion, provides diverse habitat layers, improves the ecological functions, and enhances the public’s access and their understanding of why stable stream systems are important. The portion of upper Riley Creek between Highway 5 and Lake Susan, known as Reach R4 in the District’s 2015 Creak Restoration Action Strategy (CRAS) report, has a channel bed that is primarily sand and silt with limited riffle/pool variability. Agriculture was the dominant land use in the watershed until the 1980’s and 1990’s when industrial and residential development increased, resulting in introduction of increased amounts of impervious surfaces in the watershed. This increase in impervious surfaces associated with development has increased the amount of runoff in the watershed, which has caused increased erosion in Upper Riley Creek. The Project will enhance the ecology of Upper Riley Creek by providing greater stream depth variability, more channel bed substructure types, and varied channel velocities. The proposed Project will remove accumulated debris from within the channel, reduce erosion and improve water quality while also improving natural stream habitat for aquatic organisms. Providing better floodplain connectivity for Upper Riley Creek also enhances surrounding riparian habitat and improves the ecological function through the Restoring the Upper Riley Creek ecosystem by implementing stream restoration measures to improve habitat, reduce erosion, reconnect the floodplain, and provide watershed improvements to counteract development-driven hydrologic watershed changes are estimated to reduce pollutant loads reaching Lake Susan by an estimated 470,000 pounds per year for total suspended solids and 250 pounds per year for phosphorus. 3 corridor. By establishing a stable stream corridor, the Project will also help address the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency’s (MPCA’s) identified nutrient impairment in Lake Susan (which this reach of Riley Creek directly discharges into), Rice Marsh Lake, and Lake Riley. The lower portion of the Project’s location in Lake Susan Park provides opportunities for interpretive signage and future programming to educate the public on the importance of diverse stream corridors. As part of the Project partners planning processes, each have established goals intended to protect, restore, and enhance water resources. Table 2-1 provides a summary of how the Project aligns with these goals. Table 2-1 Summary of Partner Goals and Project Partner Goals How Project Aligns with Goal RPBCWD Design, maintain, and implement Education and Outreach programs to educate the community and engage them in the work of protecting, managing, and restoring water resources. (EO 1) The project will educate the community that is near and recreational users on the project itself but also stewardship ideas that they can implement. Include sustainability and the impacts of climate change in District projects, programs, and planning. The District will use sustainable materials to the extent practicable as part of the project. Protect, manage, and restore water quality of District lakes and creeks to maintain designated uses. (WQual 1) The project is restoring the Reach R4 of Riley Creek. Preserve and enhance habitat important to fish, waterfowl, and other wildlife. (WQual 3) The project will enhance the creek corridor which includes both terrestrial and aquatic habitats. The project will enhance the aquatic habitats by stabilizing eroding streambanks. Furthermore, the project will reduce habitat fragmentation by reconnecting the creek with the terrestrial uplands. Protect and enhance the ecological function of District floodplains to minimize adverse impacts. (WQuan 1) The project will reconnect the creek to the floodplain which will also help increase of pollutant removal, promote infiltration and enhancing the ecological habitat. 4 Partner Goals How Project Aligns with Goal Limit the impact of stormwater runoff on receiving waterbodies. (WQuan 2) The project will dissipate the energy of stormwater runoff entering the creek at several culvert outfalls within the creek reach. City of Chanhassen Achieve water quality standards in lakes, streams, and wetlands consistent with their designated uses and established classifications. The project is restoring the Reach R4 of Riley Creek. Protect and rehabilitate wetlands to maintain or improve their function and value. Wetland impacts will be avoided and any wetland impacts are anticipated to be temporary. Creek restoration will result in a net benefit to surrounding wetlands. Improve access to public infrastructure for future maintenance needs Design considerations may be implemented to provide improved access to public infrastructure for maintenance purposes. Maintain primary responsibility for managing water resources at the local level and continue coordination and cooperation with other agencies and organizations. The City will, in coordination with the District, be responsible for post- construction monitoring and inspections. Additionally, the City will be responsible for the long-term inspections and routine maintenance. Cultivate an environmentally literate public to promote an active community role. The project will educate the community that is near and recreational users on the project itself but also stewardship ideas that they can implement. This plan intends to adopt an adaptive management approach to restoring this reach of Upper Riley Creek. An adaptive management approach evaluates the project performance following implementation and then determine if further actions are necessary to maintain the restoration. This project looks to enhance the creek’s ecological values and functions, mitigate and prevent additional erosion of streambanks, and foster the use of natural materials and bioengineering principals for the restoration and maintenance of stream segments whenever feasible. Technical stakeholders, including the USACE and MNDNR, have expressed a preference for bioengineering over hard armoring for stream stabilization 5 where possible. Bioengineering techniques maintain more of a stream’s natural function and provide better habitat and a more natural appearance than hard armoring. 3.0 Location Upper Riley Creek, approximately 9,000 feet long, includes those portions of Riley Creek between Lake Ann and Lake Susan in the city of Chanhassen, Minnesota. The Project reach encompassed in this Ecological Enhancement plan includes roughly 8,600 feet of Upper Riley Creek between MN Trunk Highway 5 and Lake Susan (see Figure 3-1). The watershed tributary to this reach is about 1,994 acres with roughly 35% of the area covered by impervious surfaces. Figure 3-1 Project Area Overview 6 4.0 Land Use History Prior to European settlement, the entire Riley Creek watershed was located in an ecoregion known as the Big Woods, where oak woodland and maple-basswood forests were the dominant vegetation types. As settlement occurred, much of the landscape was initially converted to farmland. Between the early 1900’s and 1950’s, the contributing watershed to Upper Riley Creek was primarily agricultural. As urban development spread outwards from the Minneapolis core, areas of farmland then became converted to urban and suburban landscapes. This conversion is ongoing in some of the undeveloped areas of Riley Creek watershed. In the 1960’s and 1970’s, homes were constructed on nearby larger lakes; however, the Upper Riley Creek watershed was still predominantly agricultural. The city of Chanhassen grew slightly in this time, and some industrial facilities adjacent to the city of Chanhassen were constructed. By 1979, a few developments appeared within the watershed, but agriculture remained the dominant land use. Much of the development in the Upper Riley Creek watershed occurred in the 1980’s and 1990’s. Between 1979 and 1991, approximately 75% of the current development occurred. Between 1991 and 2002 a belt of industrial development with significant impervious area was developed in the central portion of the watershed, resulting in developed conditions similar to present day. The only changes since 2002 have included occasional in-fill projects on undeveloped parcels. The Project area begins south of Highway 5 and extends to Lake Susan. Three different zoning classifications are found in the vicinity and adjacent to the Project area, including public (municipal), commercial, and industrial. Several utility corridors are located in the Project area, including an active railroad track, a Metropolitan Council sanitary sewer main, and several municipal utilities (sanitary, water, etc.). The watershed still has a large area of undeveloped land located between Highway 5 and Lake Ann, north of the Project boundary. This area is anticipated to eventually be developed as residential, which would result in additional impervious surface and runoff to Upper Riley Creek. A stabilization project on Upper Riley Creek will need to consider these eventual conditions, as well as future climate conditions, in its design. 7 5.0 Existing Conditions Through the Project area, Riley Creek is generally is composed of a sand and silt channel bottom with areas of exposed gravel in the uppermost portions of the reach, downstream of Highway 5. The creek exhibits moderate to low development of distinct riffle, run, and pool features. The channel varies from approximately 1 to 4 feet in depth and ranges from 4 to 10 feet wide with narrower areas tending to be deeper. Based on monitoring data collected by the District in May through October of 2017 and 2018, flows through this portion of the creek range from less to one to approximately 13 cubic feet per second (cfs) with lower flows occurring during summer months (late July, August) and higher flows occurring during late spring/early summer (early June) rain events. Within the Project area, portions of Riley Creek exhibit natural meandering patterns, while portions of the creek near the Chanhassen Public Works Building and adjacent to residential developments upstream of Lake Susan are straighter. The banks adjacent to the creek are quite steep near Highway 5 and in the vicinity of the railroad bridge with slopes ranging from 40 to 60 percent however, bank slopes flatten to approximately 10 percent near the stormwater ponds and Lake Susan. There are three stormwater ponds adjacent to the creek in upper portions of the Project area. Culverts convey Riley Creek beneath the following features in the Project area: Highway 5, Park Drive, Park Road, a railroad embankment, and Powers Boulevard. Approximately 4,100 linear feet of sanitary sewer main is located adjacent to the creek. There are currently no trails or other public access points to experience the creek, aside from the downstream portions of the Project area in Lake Susan Park. 5.1 Creek Restoration Action Strategy Scores In 2015, the RPBCWD published a Creek Restoration Action Strategy (CRAS) report. The purpose of this report was to develop a series of scored categories to prioritize creek restoration and stabilization projects within the District. Each category was assigned a score of 1, 3, 5, or 7 such that a score of 1 was best (i.e. no degradation) and a score of 7 was worst (i.e. significant degradation). In many cases, scores were assigned based on a review of site photos rather than by field data assessment. Each category was assigned a “tier”, with Tier I categories designated as those factors that affect public health and 8 safety, align with goals in the District’s Plan, and represent the key reasons why stream restoration projects are undertaken. The sum of Tier I scores was used to assign a priority rating from low (no restoration efforts needed) to severe (highest priority reach, immediate stabilization and/or restoration project needed). Tier I CRAS scores for the project reach are summarized in Table 5-1. Table 5-1 2015 CRAS Scores Reach Description Infra- structure Erosion/Channel Stability Ecological Benefits Water Quality Summary Tier I Score Tier I priority R4A Hwy 5 to Park Dr. 3 5 5 3 16 Moderate R4B Park Dr. to Park Rd. 1 5 5 3 14 Moderate R4C Park Rd. to Railroad Br. 5 7 5 3 20 High R4D Railroad Br. to Powers Blvd. 5 7 5 3 20 High R4E Powers Blvd. to Lake Susan 5 7 5 3 20 High Although the 2015 CRAS identified Upper Riley Creek as a degraded stream segment, the scope of the CRAS did not evaluate stream degradation causes or identify viable restoration alternatives. Upper Riley Creek was walked again in 2016 to further evaluate surface erosion, channel processes, and habitat. The updated field assessments yielded updated CRAS scores for Upper Riley Creek, which are listed in Table 5-2. The updated scores indicate that nearly all portions of Upper Riley Creek from Highway 5 to Lake Susan continue to be high priority for restoration or stabilization. 9 Table 5-2 Updated Tier I CRAS Scores based on 2016 Assessments Reach Description Infra- structure Erosion/Channel Stability Ecological Benefits Water Quality Summary Updated Tier I Score Updated Tier I priority R4A Hwy 5 to Park Dr. 5 5 5 3 18 High R4B Park Dr. to Park Rd. 3 3 5 3 14 Low R4C Park Rd. to Railroad Br. 5 5 5 3 18 High R4D Railroad Br. to Powers Blvd. 3 7 5 3 18 High R4E Powers Blvd. to Lake Susan 3 7 5 3 18 High 5.2 Vegetation A vegetation assessment was completed in June 2020 to determine vegetation composition of the riparian portions of the Project area. The plant community surrounding the upper and middle portions of the Project reach are hardwood forest of marginal quality due to prevalence of non-native, invasive species, with a nearly continuous canopy cover (90-100%). The riparian area is dominated by green ash, boxelder, cottonwood, and silver maple. Sandbar willow becomes prevalent where the creek outlets to Lake Susan. European buckthorn, an invasive species, is prevalent throughout forested portions of the Project area, accounting for up to 75 percent of the canopy cover in some locations and comprising a portion of the understory. In general, the understory of forested sections is sparsely vegetated due to the high level of canopy cover (Figure 5-1). 10 Figure 5-1 European Buckthorn and Native Hardwood Forest Community with Sparse Understory Unforested portions of the Project area reflect marsh and wet-meadow type settings dominated by river bulrush, and invasive reed canary grass and narrow-leaved cattail. Stinging nettle, smartweed, and goldenrod were also observed in the marsh and wet- meadow settings, though not as dominant species. In some portions of the Project area, reed canary grass accounts for nearly 100 percent of the vegetation cover (Figure 5-2). 11 Figure 5-2 Reed Canary Grass Dominated Plant Community in Project Area 5.3 Wetlands A field wetland delineation was completed in May and June 2020. The wetland delineation was performed according to the Routine On-Site Determination Method specified in the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Wetlands Delineation Manual (1987 Edition) and the 2010 Regional Supplement to the Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual for the Midwest Region. Delineated wetland boundaries and sample points were mapped in the field using a Trible GeoXH 700 Global positioning System unit capable of recording positions with sub-foot horizontal accuracy. Vegetation, soils, and hydrology data were collected at sample points within and around wetland areas. Soil samples were examined for hydric indicators according to the Natural Resources Conservation Service Field Indicators of Hydric Soils in the United States. Soil colors were determined using a Munsell® soil color chart. Plant species were identified, and percent aerial cover was estimated at each sample point using methods described within the USACE Midwest Regional Supplement 12 to the 1987 manual. The corresponding wetland indicator status of each plant species was recorded using the current National Wetland Plant List. Hydrologic conditions were also evaluated and recorded for each sample point. Delineated wetland areas were classified using the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) Cowardin System, the USFWS Circular 39 system and the Eggers and Reed Wetland Classification System. Five wetlands totaling 6.64 acres were delineated within the study area, as summarized in Table 5-3 and shown on Figure 5-3. Mapped communities for each wetland are shown on figures included in Appendix A. As part of RPBCWD’s wetland management program, District staff completed assessments of several wetlands in the study area using the Minnesota Routine Assessment Method (MnRAM), as also noted in Table 5-3. The functional assessment categories in the MnRAM assessment were translated into the RPBCWD wetland value using the wetland definitions defined in Appendix D1 of RPBCWD’s Wetland and Creek Buffers Rule (Rule D). The assessed wetlands are assigned a wetland rating in one of four categories: exceptional, high, medium, and low. Exceptional value wetlands are highly functional wetlands, while the low wetland ratings reflect wetlands that have been substantially disturbed. All of the classified wetlands in the study area fall within high or medium rating categories. 13 Table 5-3 Delineated Wetlands within Study Area Wetland ID Cowardin Wetland Type Circular 39 Type Wetland Community Type (Eggers & Reed) RPBCWD Wetland Rating Delineated Wetland Size A1 PFO1A (palustrine, forested, broad- leaved deciduous, temporarily flooded) 1 Floodplain forest Medium 0.50 B1 PFO1A (palustrine, forested, broad- leaved deciduous, temporarily flooded) 1 Floodplain forest High 0.24 PEMB (palustrine, emergent, saturated) 2 Wet meadow 2.89 PEMC (palustrine, emergent, seasonally flooded) 3 Shallow marsh 0.51 PUBHx (palustrine, unconsolidated bottom, permanently flooded, excavated) 4 Deep marsh; constructed stormwater pond 1.04 B2 PEMB (palustrine, emergent, saturated) 2 Sedge meadow Medium 0.05 PEMC (palustrine, emergent, seasonally flooded) 3 Shallow marsh 0.17 PUBHx (palustrine, unconsolidated bottom, permanently flooded, excavated) 4 Deep marsh; constructed stormwater pond 0.97 C1 PEMAx (palustrine, emergency, temporarily flooded, excavated) 1 Seasonally flooded basin Medium 0.07 E1 PSS1B (palustrine, scrub-shrub, broad- leaved deciduous, saturated) 6 Shrub-carr Assumed to be High (Not yet rated) 0.20 14 Figure 5-3 Delineated Wetlands The wetland delineation report was submitted to the city of Chanhassen for review and approval under the Wetland Conservation Act (WCA) in early September 2020. A site visit to confirm wetland boundaries was held on September 30, 2020 and attended by representatives from the City of Chanhassen, Minnesota Board of Soil and Water Resources, Carver County Soil and Water District, and Barr Engineering Co. Adjustments were made to the wetland boundaries based on the site visit, and the wetland delineation was approved by the Technical Evaluation Panel on November 4, 2020. 5.4 Soils and Hydrology Nine different soil types are found in the Project area, as described in Table 5-4. Although soils in the Project area generally have a moderate susceptibility to erosion, most of these soils are generally found on steep slopes. 15 Table 5-4 Summary of Soils Conditions within the Project Area Soil Type Typical Soil Slopes Erosion Susceptibility Hydric Status Essexville sandy loam None listed Low Hydric Hamel loam 0 to 2 percent Moderate Predominantly Hydric Kilkenny-Lester loams 2 to 6 percent Moderate Not Hydric Lester loam 10 to16 percent Moderate Not Hydric Lester-Kilkenny complex 6 to 10 percent Moderate Predominantly Not Hydric Lester-Kilkenny complex 10 to 16 percent Moderate Predominantly Not Hydric Lester-Kilkenny loams 12 to 18 percent Moderate Not Hydric Lester-Kilkenny complex 16 to 22 percent Moderate Predominantly Not Hydric Muskego and Houghton soils 0 to 1 percent None listed Hydric Riley Creek is the primary hydrologic resource in the Project area. It travels through a relatively wide valley before reaching Lake Susan. Riley Creek ultimately flows out of Lake Susan, thought Rice Marsh Lake and Lake Riley before discharging into the Minnesota River. This reach of Riley Creek has a moderately incised channel with little connection to its floodplain. The incised nature of the channel limits the ability of high flows to spread into a floodplain (where flows could be slowed to promote sedimentation), thereby keeping high flows concentrated in and near the main channel, exacerbating existing bank erosion. 5.5 Water Quality Impairments States must develop a list of impaired waters that require total maximum daily load (TMDL) studies and routinely coordinate with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for study approval. A TMDL study identifies the maximum amount of a certain pollutant that a body of water can receive without violating water quality standards and allocates that amount to the pollutant’s sources. The MPCA maintains a list of impaired waters for the state of Minnesota. A creek is considered impaired if it fails to meet one or more of the state’s water quality standards presented in Table 5-5. 16 Table 5-5 MPCA Water Quality Standards for Creeks Water Quality Parameter MPCA Water Quality Standard Total Phosphorus (summer average, µg/L) 100 Chlorophyll a (summer average, µg/L) 18 Secchi Disc Transparency (summer average, m) NA Total Suspended Solids (mg/L)1 30 Daily Dissolved Oxygen Flux (mg/L) 3.5 Biological Oxygen Demand (5 day) (mg/L) 2 Escherichia coli (# per 100 mL) 126 Chloride (mg/L) 230 1To achieve the MPCA total suspended solids (TSS) stream water quality standard, a stream may not exceed 30mg/L TSS more than 10% of the time. Lower Riley Creek, from Lake Riley to the Minnesota River, is included on the MPCA’s 2020 Inventory of Impaired Waters; however, Upper Riley Creek has not yet been assessed by the MPCA. Because the MPCA has not yet completed a TMDL study for Upper Riley Creek, RPBCWD placed an automated water-sampling unit on Riley Creek at the culvert passing under Powers Boulevard, just upstream of Lake Susan, to better quantify rain event nutrient loading from upstream sources. The following water quality parameters were collected at this location from 2017 through 2019: • Total phosphorus (TP; mg/L), • Total dissolved phosphorus (TDP; mg/L), • Chlorophyll-a (Chl-a; ug/L), and • Total suspended solids (TSS; mg/L). Based on the results of the district’s recent monitoring efforts, as described below, Upper Riley Creek does not achieve the MPCA water quality standards in Table 5-5. As such, the creek discharges water with excess nutrient and suspended solids to Lake Susan, which also does not meet MPCA water quality standards for shallow lakes. The TDP and TP concentrations measured at the Riley Creek/Powers Boulevard crossing from 2018 and 2019 are shown in Figure 5-4. The dashed line represents the MPCA’s TP standard in class 2B creeks (≤ 0.1mg/L). The average TP across the 12 samples collected in 2019 was 0.497mg/L. This level is about four times the MPCA eutrophication water quality standard for class 2B creeks (≤ 0.1mg/L). As shown in Figure 5-4, none of the TP 17 samples achieved the standard, and Upper Riley Creek is considered to be in poor health. Figure 5-4 Upper Riley Creek TP and TDP Measurement at Powers Boulevard TSS concentrations measured at the Riley Creek/Powers Boulevard crossing from 2018 and 2019 are summarized in Figure 5-5. The dashed line represents the MPCA’s standard for TSS in class 2B creeks (≤30mg/L TSS no more than 10% of the time). Only two of the 2018 samples and 18 none of the 12 samples taken in 2019 fell below the 30mg/L TSS standard, thus confirming this creek reach is in poor health. The high TSS and TP measured at the Riley Creek/Powers Boulevard crossing confirm the potential for significant pollutant loading directly to Lake Susan. Figure 5-5 Upper Riley Creek TSS Measurements at Powers Boulevard 19 Lake Susan’s position within the Riley chain of lakes makes lake water quality management important. Because water leaving Upper Riley Creek discharges directly to Lake Susan which in turn discharges downstream to Rice Marsh Lake and Lake Riley, it is important to keep phosphorus concentrations as low as possible entering Lake Susan. To that end, the RPBCWD and city of Chanhassen recently partnered to implement the Lake Susan Spent Lime Project and the Lake Susan Park Pond Reuse and Water Quality Project as efforts to improve Lake Susan water quality. While these measures, along with a carp management initiative (discussed in Section 5.7) helped reduce phosphorus and chlorophyll-a concentrations and improve water clarity in the Lake Susan, the lake still does not achieve the MPCA’s health standards. Water quality data collected in Lake Susan during 2020 indicate the summer average TP concentration (67 µg/L) was higher than the MPCA’s shallow lake standard (60 µg/L). In February 2020, the MPCA released the Lower Minnesota River Watershed TMDL Part II to further identify the pollutant sources leading to Lake Susan’s excess nutrient impairment. The TMDL also split the total phosphorus loads into a waste load allocation (WLA), load allocation (LA), and margin of safety (MOS) as summarized in Table 5-6. The table includes the existing annual loading rate, the allocated annual and daily loading rates, as well as the percent reductions required to meet the allocations for the impaired lake. According to the MPCA’s TMDL: • WLA represents the portion of the TP load associated with permitted sources (i.e. watershed loading). • LA represents pollutant sources such as internal loading, groundwater, atmospheric deposition, and/or streambank erosion. • The purpose of the MOS in the TMDL is to provide capacity to allow for uncertainty, which the TMDL assumed to be 5%. 20 Table 5-6 Total Phosphorus Wasteload Allocations, Load Allocations, and Existing Conditions for Lake Susan, 2015 Water Year Existing TP Load Allowable TP Load Estimated Allowable Load Reduction lbs/yr lbs/day lbs/yr lbs/day lbs/yr lbs/day Total Load 1,261 3.455 995 2.726 316 25 Wasteload Total WLA 279 0.764 229 0.627 50 18 MnDOT (MS400170) 27 0.074 27 0.074 0 0 Carver County (MS400070) 9 0.025 9 0.025 0 0 Chanhassen (MS400079) 241 0.660 191 0.523 50 21 Construction/Industrial SW 2 0.005 2 0.05 0 0 Load Total LA 982 2,690 716 1.962 266 27 Atmospheric Deposition 33 0.090 33 0.090 0 0 Internal Load 496 1.359 496 1.359 0 0 Upstream Lakes 20 0.055 20 0.055 0 0 Erosion Sources 400 1.096 134 0.367 266 67 Groundwater 33 0.090 33 0.090 0 0 MOS (5%) 50 0.137 Table 5-6 also shows that a considerable amount of TP entering Lake Susan is generated from erosion and internal sources. The TMDL indicates a 67% reduction in the erosion source loading is needed to achieve and maintain the long-term water quality goals in Lake Susan. Therefore, it is necessary to stabilize the streambank erosion sources in Upper Riley Creek to help achieve the water quality goals in Lake Susan. 5.6 Stream Geomorphic Assessment Sediment delivery from the watershed to a stream is a natural process that occurs in all watersheds (Figure 5-6); however changes to the watershed change the dynamics of sediment delivery to and through the stream system. The basic sediment delivery to a stream can be broken down into three categories: surface erosion processes, hydrologic processes, and channel processes. Each of these processes is summarized in this section. 21 Figure 5-6 Contributing Watershed Summary Map 22 5.6.1 Surface Erosion Surface erosion comes directly from the land surface and includes sediment that comes from both natural and impervious surfaces. It also includes mass wasting of hillslopes that contribute a significant amount of sediment directly into a drainage way or stream. While there is streambank erosion along Upper Riley Creek, the nature of the erosion is consistent with channel processes (Section 5.6.3) rather than mass wasting of a slope. Creek walks by District and Barr staff have not identified areas of mass wasting or other unusual sediment sources. Surface erosion on natural surfaces is dependent on the watershed slope and the vegetation. Areas of a watershed that are unvegetated or poorly vegetated (e.g. fallow fields, development sites) will erode more and contribute more sediment than areas that are well vegetated. The Upper Riley Creek watershed is relatively flat and well vegetated, with seemingly minimal natural erosion from hillslopes. The contributing watershed can play both a direct and indirect role in sediment delivery from surface erosion to the channel. Direct sediment delivery primarily includes sediment carried in runoff from impervious surfaces or eroded from land surfaces (usually unvegetated or poorly vegetated slopes) in the watershed. Direct sediment delivery can also include other sources, such as construction activities or agricultural land uses. Parking lots which are sanded in the winter can also contribute large quantities of sediment to the stream if they are not appropriately treated with best management practices (BMP). Indirect influences of sediment delivery involve hydrologic processes and are covered in Section 5.6.2.4. 5.6.1.1 Total Suspended Solids Total suspended solids (TSS) originating from the watersheds reaching Lake Susan were quantified by a P8 model, originally developed by Wenck Associates, Inc. for RPBCWD and modified by for the MPCA’s TMDL analysis. The P8 model indicates a total of 138,600 pounds of sediment leave the watersheds contributing to Lake Susan each year while 83,000 pounds reach Lake Susan from the contributing watersheds each year (excluding loading from the streambank erosion). Modeling indicates the existing detention basins and natural wetlands are removing approximately 67% of the sediment originating in the watershed. Implementing ecological enhancements of Upper Riley 23 Creek and the adjacent ponds could provide additional opportunities to detain TSS before it reaches Lake Susan. 5.6.2 Hydrologic Processes Indirect influences of sediment delivery include increases in the volume and/or rate of runoff reaching the stream. As described in more detail in the following sections, there are multiple ways runoff volume and/or rates can increase, including: • Changes in land use – natural  agricultural  urban/suburban development • Increased impervious surface within the watershed; • Modified watershed boundaries due to grading during development and installation of storm sewer systems; • Increased efficiency of runoff delivery to streams due to the use of storm sewers; • Climatological shifts that results in changes in the precipitation depth and intensity of storms. Increases in the volume and/or rate of runoff contributing to a stream results in degradation of the stream bed and banks with transport of the eroded sediment downstream. 5.6.2.1 Flood Frequency and Magnitude Primer Prior to the introduction of agriculture and grazing practices, Upper Riley Creek was likely in dynamic equilibrium with its watershed and was able to convey storm runoff without significant change in its shape, pattern, or profile. Transforming the landscape to one dominated by agriculture likely made fundamental changes to the hydrology by changing the dominant vegetation (both in the watersheds and adjacent to the creek), improving the rate of drainage from fields, and altering the sediment load to the creek. Relatively rapid fundamental changes to the hydrology can disrupt the dynamic equilibrium and result in erosion as the creek gradually moves toward a new balance with the hydrology and sediment supply to the creek in a process that can take years or decades to play out. When the watershed began to urbanize, a similar process likely began again as sediment supply, drainage patterns, and runoff rates and volumes changed again. The most significant change associated with urbanization within the creek corridor is an increase in runoff from the watershed. With urbanization, the rate and volume of runoff 24 generally increases, as shown in Figure 5-7 assuming mitigating measures are not implemented. Figure 5-7 Change in Streamflow Due to Urbanization The shape, pattern, and profile of the creek channel are closely related to the bankfull discharge. When the creek is in equilibrium with its environment, the shape, pattern, and profile are such that the creek can consistently convey the bankfull discharge without significant erosion. With urbanization, an increase in watershed imperviousness typically leads to an increase in the frequency of bankfull discharge as illustrated in Figure 5-8. TimeFlowrate Pre-Urban Urban w/o BMPs 25 Figure 5-8 Conceptual Frequency of Bankfull Flooding as a Function of Imperviousness The increase in the frequency of pre-development bankfull discharge means that there is a different, larger flow that occurs at the same frequency as the pre-development bankfull discharge frequency, and over time, the channel will adjust its dimensions to accommodate the larger flow that occurs at a frequency more consistent with a typical range of bankfull flow frequencies. The channel can adjust its dimensions through either deepening or widening by eroding and transporting the resulting sediment downstream. This is currently occurring in portions of Upper Riley Creek. Detention ponds are often constructed to slow the rate of storm water flow to a creek, and thus attempt to maintain a more natural peak rate of flow to the creek and limit the impact to the magnitude of bankfull flows. By increasing storm water detention volume available, it may be possible to approach the pre-urbanized peak runoff rates to the creek. Even if peak flows are sufficiently attenuated through stormwater detention, an increase in the total runoff volume may also impact stream geomorphology. The impacts are dependent on watershed characteristics and are less in watersheds with a lot of natural 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 Watershed Imperviousness (%)Frequency of Bankfull Floods per Year 26 storage in lakes and wetlands, compared to those with little natural storage, because the channel is already adjusted to a longer hydrograph. 5.6.2.2 Upper Riley Creek Runoff Volume and Rate Upper Riley Creek receives runoff from four distinct land use types: undeveloped parkland, industrial, and residential. The areas defined as residential and industrial have the potential to greatly increase runoff rates and volumes as compared to pre- development conditions due to increased imperviousness, leading to in-stream erosion. The RPBCWD developed a detailed PCSWMM hydrologic and hydraulic model of Riley Creek in 2016. This model includes existing watersheds and land use to determine the rate and volume of runoff conveyed in Riley Creek. The PCSWMM model was used to analyze the impacts industrial and residential development in the watershed may have on the peak discharge and volume of water in this section of Riley Creek compared to pseudo pre-development conditions. Figure 5-9 and Figure 5-10 summarize the existing and pre-development conditions for 2-year cumulative runoff volume and percent increase in runoff volume (as compared to the immediate upstream segment) at several locations along the project reach. Figure 5-9 Cumulative Runoff Volume from the 2-year Design Storm from Lake Ann to Upstream of Lake Susan 0 50 100 150 200 250 300 Volume, ac-ftExisting Conditions Pre-Development Conditions 27 Figure 5-10 Percent Increase in Segment Runoff Volume from the 2-year Design Storm from Lake Ann to Upstream of Lake Susan Compared to the pseudo pre-development condition, there is an estimated 52% increase in 2-year runoff volume entering Lake Susan under existing watershed conditions as shown in Figure 5-9. In addition, the true pre-development condition likely experienced less runoff volume and lower runoff rates than those approximated because of natural depressions and conveyances rather than the existing storm sewers. The segment immediately upstream of Lake Susan shows large increases in flow in Figure 5-10. The reach downstream of Park Road was also the creek section identified as having some of the most significant erosion. While the PCSWMM model was also revised to approximate pre-development runoff peaks by assuming a fully pervious condition; the model still includes conveyance structures that are present today but were not present before development because pre-development flow patterns would have to be assumed. Since those conveyance structures were maintained for this analysis, the results defined as “Pre-development” should be considered proxies for actual pre-development modeling results and therefore the peaks should be analyzed for trends, not necessarily for their absolute value. 0% 5% 10% 15% 20% 25% Lake Ann HWY 5 Park Dr Park Rd Railroad HWY17 US Lake Susan Existing Conditions Pre-Development Conditions 28 Figure 5-11 and Figure 5-12 provide the PCSWMM existing and pre-development 2-year and 10-year peak discharges. For the downstream section of the reach (HWY17), the 2- year peak discharge has increased by 125% as compared to pre-development conditions. The increase in the HWY17 reach is only 14% for the 10-year peak discharge. The 2-year event appears to have been impacted the most by watershed development and is critical when assessing stream erosion impacts.

Final project report: Sectoral Applications Research Program FY2011, which determined mid-century (year 2050) 100-year precipitation depths for moderate, optimistic, and pessimistic climate conditions. Inundation mapping for the existing 100- year and 90% confidence interval (similar depths to future moderate precipitation depths) are shown in Figure 5-13. The future moderate scenario would result in an approximate 38% increase in the precipitation, subsequent increases in peak discharge and volume in the Riley Creek, and additional channel erosion. Figure 5-13 Existing 100-Year and Future Moderate Inundation along Upper Riley Creek 31 5.6.2.4 Hydrologic Analysis Summary An evaluation of hydrologic processes reviewed available data associated with existing hydrologic and hydraulic models, watershed land use, climate studies, and the TMDL study with the intent of identifying contributing causes of streambank erosion in Riley Creek and sediment deposition in Lake Susan. The watershed analysis determined the following key items: • The upstream third of the watershed remains largely pervious with some single- family homes, while the center of the watershed is industrial with significant impervious area. The downstream third of the watershed is a mix of industrial and single-family homes. The watershed is anticipated to continue to develop and add impervious surface in the future. • The additional impervious area associated primarily with the central industrial area has resulted in increases in the 2-year design storm runoff volume and peak discharge of approximately 52% and 126%, respectively, for the reach immediately upstream of Lake Susan. • Large increases in runoff volumes occur at Park Road and immediately upstream of Lake Susan. The increases in runoff volume can be attributed to the installation of storm sewer conveyance systems through the pre-development watershed divides and to the large amount of impervious surfaces without sufficient stormwater detention. • Future increases in precipitation will result in increased runoff volumes and peak discharges over the next 50 years which should be considered in future regulations and designs. • Streambank erosion can largely be attributed to the increase in impervious area in the watershed and to the revisions of drainage divides/conveyance features causing increased runoff volumes and rates. • Watersheds with little or no runoff detention and subsequent low TSS removal were identified in this analysis. These watersheds could be locations for improvements to existing BMPs or construction of new BMPs as part of an ecological enhancement program with the goal of reducing the runoff peaks reaching Riley Creek. 32 5.6.3 Channel Processes Erosion and mass wasting due to natural channel processes result in the direct loss of soil from the streambanks and bed. Erosion and migration of the channel banks and bed are natural processes of all stream systems, however changes to the stream hydrology can result in increases in the stream erosion and migration rates. Activities such as roads crossing the creek, channel straightening, and concentration of flow at culvert crossings can also have negative impacts on the creek by altering the stable pattern and profile of the channel. Areas of disturbed natural vegetation along the creek banks and within the floodplain also result in greater erosion potential. Increases in streambank erosion can cause damage to nearby infrastructure and can result in downstream sedimentation and pollution of lakes or other waterbodies. This section evaluates the in-stream stability/erosion rates of Upper Riley Creek primary through field data collection. 5.6.3.1 Streambank Erosion Potential The initial instability within Upper Riley Creek is likely caused by the gradual increase in runoff volume and increased peak runoff rates generated by a developing watershed. In addition, this reach of Upper Riley Creek has several perched culverts, with evidence of scour at the unprotected outfalls also contributing to localized erosion. Streambanks within this reach are 4 to 6 or more feet tall, with vertical side slopes that are largely bare of vegetation. Due to its incised nature, flood flows are confined to the channel rather the expanding into a floodplain, thereby generating more erosive pressure on the stream bed and banks, especially during larger storm flows. Based on MnDNR regional curves and USGS regression equations, Upper Riley Creek should have a mean bankfull depth of 1.5 to 2.5 feet instead of the current 4 to 6 feet. Bank erosion hazard index (BEHI), near bank stress, and modified Pfankuch channel stability rating worksheets were completed for six segments along Upper Riley Creek based on site photographs. A formal survey of the Upper Riley Creek segment was not completed. Modified Pfankuch Channel Stability Ratings The Pfankuch method assigns channel stability rating based on a series of qualitative questions to predict creek stability. The method evaluates mass wasting potential adjacent to the channel, detachability of bank and bed materials, channel capacity, and evidence of excessive erosion and/or deposition. A higher rating score indicates greater 33 channel instability. The final score is adjusted based on the Rosgen stream classification. The resulting scores are summarized in Table 5-8. In general, the condition of the creek degrades from Lake Ann to Lake Susan. The channel is in worse condition downstream of Park Road, which is the location where the contributing drainage area increases significantly. Table 5-8 Modified Pfankuch Channel Stability Rating Reach Description Pfankuch Rating CRAS Score R5 Lake Ann to Hwy 5 Good 3 R4A Hwy 5 to Park Drive Good / Fair 3 / 5 R4B Park Drive to Park Road Good 3 R4C Park Road to Railroad Bridge Fair 5 R4D Railroad Bridge to Powers Blvd Fair 5 / 7 R4E Powers Blvd to Lake Susan Fair / Poor 5 / 7 Bank Erosion Hazard Index Scores The Bank Erosion Hazard Index (BEHI) was developed by Dave Rosgen and adopted by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as a method for assessing streambank erosion condition and potential using variables that are known to affect bank erosion rates. The BEHI method assigns points (low scores being low susceptibility and higher scores being high susceptibility) to several aspects of streambank condition and considers bank height, bankfull height, bank angle, root depth, root density, and vegetated surface protection. Scores are then correlated to a streambank risk rating ranging from very low risk to extreme risk and are used to help estimate erosion rates. A summary of the BEHI rating is provided in Table 5-9. 34 Table 5-9 Summary of Average BEHI Ratings Reach Description BEHI Rating R5 Lake Ann to Hwy 5 Low R4A Hwy 5 to Park Drive Moderate R4B Park Drive to Park Road Low/Moderate R4C Park Road to Railroad Bridge Moderate R4D Railroad Bridge to Powers Blvd Moderate/High R4E Powers Blvd to Lake Susan High In general, the Upper Riley Creek reach is susceptible to streambank erosion, likely due to tall streambanks in combination with lower root densities and lower vegetated surface protection. Near Bank Stress Ratings Near bank stress (NBS) quantifies the amount of stress affecting a streambank using one of seven different calculation methods, and the use of this method requires an in-depth analysis with survey data to fully determine the severity of the near bank stress. The survey needed to complete a full NBS analysis was not completed for this phase of assessment. NBS ratings can change rapidly along a stream and the localized NBS near an actively eroding bank can significantly impact both actual and predicted erosion rates. Ratings on most banks are very low or low so a low average rating was assumed for all reaches in order to estimate erosion. For perspective, the range of erosion rates for a stream with a NBS rating of low is approximately 0.035 ft/yr, 0.15 ft/yr, and 0.25 ft/yr, for “low,” “moderate,” and “high” BEHI ratings, respectively. Bank Erosion Rates Based on the BEHI and NBS Ratings, the erosion rates and volumes for each reach were estimated and summarized in Table 5-10. Without restoration measures along Upper Riley Creek, it is anticipated that similar amounts of sediment will continue to be deposited into Lake Susan. 35 Table 5-10 Estimated Annual Erosion Volume for each Subreach Reach Description Estimated Bank Erosion Rate1 (feet per year) Estimated Average Bank Height (ft) Reach Length (ft) Estimated Annual Erosion Volume (tons/yr) R5 Lake Ann to Hwy 5 0.035 2 3,300 15 R4A Hwy 5 to Park Drive 0.15 3 1,770 41 R4B Park Drive to Park Road 0.09 4 1,820 34 R4C Park Road to Railroad Bridge 0.15 3 1,200 28 R4D Railroad Bridge to Powers Blvd 0.20 3 1,780 55 R4E Powers Blvd to Lake Susan 0.25 3 1,960 76 Total 11,830 250 1 – from Rosgen, Dave. Watershed Assessment of River Stability and Sediment Supply (WARSSS). Fort Collins, CO: Wildland Hydrology, 2006 5.7 Habitat and Wildlife Assessment This reach of Riley Creek provides potential habitat for a diversity of organisms, including fish, such as green sunfish, fathead minnow, and bluntnose minnow; amphibians, such as frogs, toads, and salamanders; birds such as bald eagles, hawks, heron, wood ducks, and perching birds; and mammals, such as fox, deer, squirrels, beaver, and muskrats. Wildlife found in the Project area are primarily expected to be habitat generalists due to the present lack of high-quality habitat through a majority of this reach. The United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) Information for Planning and Consultation (IPaC) database indicates that the Northern long-eared bat may be found within the Project area, although the database shows that no designated critical habitat for this species is present. The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (MnDNR) National Heritage Information System (NHIS) data indicates that the closest record of the Northern long-eared bat is approximately eight miles southwest of the Project area. The Minnesota Biological Survey (MBS) is a program that tracks sensitive plant and animal data across the state, as well as the ecology of native plant communities and 36 functional landscapes. The MBS assign biodiversity significance rankings to surveyed sites (sites of biodiversity significance, SBS). There are no MBS sites in or near the Project area. RPBCWD staff previously assessed the habitat conditions for this reach of Riley Creek based on the Minnesota Stream Habitat Assessment (MSHA) protocol developed by the MPCA, with ratings throughout the reach classified as “fair.” These reaches scored well on shade and cover in the channel, including large woody debris in the channel which creates excellent habitat; they scored poorly on bank erosion and bed substrate lacking a diverse mix of sizes of sediment. The sediment was dominated by clays, silts, and other fine materials which are not good for a diverse in-stream fauna population. In addition, the RPBCWD undertook several years of research with the University of Minnesota to better understand the role that carp play in the Riley chain of lakes. Carp can be notable contributors of phosphorus in aquatic systems as their feeding habits resuspend sediment. Their ability to thrive in areas of poor water quality allow their populations to grow rapidly compared to native species, resulting in greater amounts of phosphorus generated through excrement. Due to these factors, it is difficult to implement an in-lake phosphorous management strategy until carp populations are controlled. This research effort revealed that Rice Marsh Lake acts as a nursery for carp young of year. In years where Rice Marsh Lake experiences a winter kill, panfish are killed, while carp are able to survive through the poor conditions. A strong panfish population is important to eat carp eggs before young of the year hatch. As such, preventing winter kill in Rice Marsh Lake is important in the phosphorous management strategy for the Riley chain of lakes. As a result of this study, RPBCWD implemented a carp management program including extensive carp netting and removal, as well as installing a winter aeration system in the Rice Marsh Lake to promote blue gill survival. By managing carp in the system the District is able to reduce the amount of sediment, an thus phosphorus, being contributed to the water columns as well as promote vegetation regeneration, all of which help improve the health of the aquatic ecosystem. 5.8 Cultural Resources A Phase I Archaeological Survey for the Project was completed in May 2020. This included background research on the Project area, as well as a pedestrian survey. Background research identified one archaeological site located outside of the Project 37 area, near Lake Susan. Subsurface testing in the vicinity of this site was completed during the pedestrian survey. Testing consists of three transects placed on either side of the creek north and south of the identified site with three to six shovel tests excavated along each transect. All subsurface tests were negative for cultural resources, and no new archaeological sites were identified. 5.9 Phase I Environmental Site Assessment A Phase I environmental site assessment was completed for the Project in July 2020 to identify recognized environmental conditions (i.e. sites of contamination from hazardous substances or petroleum) that may be present in the Project area. The assessment included a database review and coordination with the RPBCWD’s Administrator and City of Chanhassen to complete a questionnaire on known land uses. No recognized environmental conditions were documented by the Phase I environmental site assessment. 5.10 Public Infrastructure A number of public infrastructure elements are located in the Project area, as described below and shown in Figure 5-14. 5.10.1 Stormwater Ponds Three constructed stormwater ponds exist in the northern portion of the Project area, one approximately 1.5 acres in size located adjacent to the city of Chanhassen public works building and two each approximately 0.9 acres in size located south of Highway 5. These ponds collect stormwater runoff from the surrounding developed areas. 5.10.2 Culverts Upper Riley Creek passes beneath local infrastructure via culverts in several location within the Project area, including: Highway 5, Park Drive, Park Road, the railroad, and Powers Boulevard. The previously-deteriorated crossing at Park Road was recently replaced in 2017/2018. Erosion is visible on the downstream side of several of these crossings. In addition, there are several storm sewer outfall culverts adjacent to the creek. Many of these are perched above the channel elevation and protection measures to control erosion. 38 5.10.3 Sanitary Sewer Metropolitan Council has a sanitary sewer main that parallels approximately 4,100 linear feed of Upper Riley Creek. The purpose of a sanitary sewer main is to collect and transport wastewater to a treatment facility. Figure 5-14 Infrastructure Features 5.11 Easements Easements may be needed from both public and private properties for site access and/or project construction. Land ownership is shown on Figure 7-1 below. The specific needs for easements will be determined during Project design. 6.0 Desired Future Outcomes The proposed ecological enhancement project will result in improved ecological functions along the Project reach and downstream Lake Susan by reducing stream bank 39 erosion, reconnecting the creek to its floodplain, restoring habitat, and promoting diverse vegetation. Reducing the sediment and phosphorus loading to Upper Riley Creek will also help restore and protect all downstream water bodies, including Lake Susan, Rice Marsh Lake, Lake Riley and ultimately the Minnesota River. These elements will be planned and implemented in coordination with opportunities to preserve and enhance maintenance access to public infrastructure features. The total reduction in pollutant loading as a result of stabilizing the Project reach is estimated as 470,000 pounds per year TSS and 250 pounds per year TP. These values are representative of an erosion rate of approximately 0.10 to 0.25 feet per year for the stream banks. This reduction in TSS and TP loading is a critical component for improving the ecological health of the aquatic ecosystems (Upper Riley Creek and Lake Susan) and essential to potentially removing the Lake Susan from the MPCA’s impaired waters list. The proposed Project design will focus on improving the ecosystem by stabilizing the creek while also improving degraded habitat conditions along the Project reach. The Project reach has a primarily sandy/silty channel bed with limited riffle/pool variability. The proposed Project would provide greater stream depth variability, more channel bed substructure types, and varied channel velocities. Each of these variabilities enhances in- stream habitat features, potentially allowing more opportunities for macroinvertebrates and fish to use this reach of Upper Riley Creek. Providing better floodplain connectivity for Upper Riley Creek also enhances surrounding riparian habitat. In addition to the expected water quality improvement expect from restoring the stream, the Project will provide other benefits as summarized in Table 6-1. 40 Table 6-1 Project Benefit Summary Benefits Qualitative Discussion Metric Habitat (acres) Create in-channel habitat for fish and macroinvertebrates providing pools, riffle and refuge area for aquatic life. Improve riparian habitat conditions through invasive species removal and better connection of riparian corridor to stream channel. Up to 3.9 acres of in- channel habitat improvements; Up to 21.6 acres of riparian habitat improvements Pollutants 1 (e.g., TP, TSS, etc; lbs) Restore stable streambanks and improve riparian buffer to reduce movement of eroded soil and nutrients to Riley Creek and Lake Susan. Provide additional stormwater detention by removing accumulated sediment in stormwater ponds to allow for additional pollutant settling. Reduce TSS by 470,000 lbs/yr; Reduce TP by 250 lbs/yr Abstraction (cubic ft) Re-connecting Riley Creek channel to floodplain allows for greater infiltration due to sandy soils found in the floodplain. Vegetation found within the floodplain also improves infiltration. Metric cannot be measured in the context of this Project. Streambank Restored (feet) Restore stable streambanks and improve riparian buffer is significant driver of the other benefits presented in this table. 8,627 feet of channel length Groundwater Conserved (gal) Benefit is not applicable. Community Reach Location of a portion of the project in a public park allows for public accessibility; public hearing will be held prior to RPBCWD Board ordering project; will hold adjacent landowner meetings prior to construction; informational pamphlets explaining project will be placed at Lake Susan Park during construction; plans for future interpretive signage Flow Reduction (fps, cfs, psf, etc.) Re-connect Riley Creek channel to floodplain, allowing high flows to extend into floodplain, reducing velocity of flows through the area. Flood Storage (acft) Improve connectivity of creek to floodplain, providing for project resiliency and reducing flow velocities Provide additional stormwater detention by removing accumulated sediment in stormwater ponds and potential modifications to increase flood storage capacity. Wetland Management Class Benefit is not applicable. 1 These values are representative of an erosion rate of approximately 0.10 to 0.25 feet per year for the stream banks. 41 7.0 Stakeholder Engagement The RPBCWD and city of Chanhassen have facilitated opportunities for both agency and landowner input during development of this Plan. An agency stakeholder meeting was held on August 20, 2020. The purpose of this meeting was to introduce the Project and its need, review field studies completed, identify key concerns, and to discuss preliminary concepts under consideration to address the concerns. Agency feedback was solicited regarding design considerations, infrastructure, and future permitting. Representatives from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, Board of Water and Soil Resources, and Metropolitan Council attended. At this meeting, USACE indicated that any potential stream re-meandering would need to be evaluated for loss of stream length, and the Metropolitan Council noted a sanitary sewer main that parallels a considerable portion of the creek. Adjacent landowners were invited by mailing to a virtual open house on February 4, 2021. The purpose of this meeting was to introduce the Project and allow participants to ask questions and express concerns. Five representatives from three adjacent properties attended the virtual open house. Landowner engagement will be ongoing through the design phase of the Project. 8.0 Strategies for Ecological Enhancement and Management The RPBCWD is proposing to enhance approximately 8,600 feet of Upper Riley Creek, as summarized on Figure 3-1. All restoration projects require ongoing management to ensure their long-term success. This section describes the initially proposed restoration techniques and outlines a management program. 8.1 Restoration Activities Improvements to this reach of Upper Riley Creek would be provided through several methods as summarized in Figure 8-1 and Table 8-1. !N PRELIMINARYSTABILIZATIONCONCEPTSGF GF GF GF !. !.

The variety in flow and channel substrate size provides habitat diversity for aquatic species. Approximately 9 rock riffles are proposed in preliminary stabilization concept. Cross Vanes Boulders buried in the stream bed and extending partially (“vanes”) or entirely across the stream (“cross vanes”) to achieve one or more of the following goals: re-direct flows away from banks, encourage sediment deposition in selected areas, and control stream bed elevations. Scour pools develop over time near the vane, which provide habitat diversity for species that prefer pools to faster flowing in- channel habitat. Approximately 35 cross vanes are proposed in preliminary stabilization concept. Root Wads Tree trunks with the root ball attached, installed either singly (root wads) or in conjunction with additional large woody debris and toe wood to Increase bank roughness and resistance to erosion, re-direct flows away from banks, and provide a bench for establishment of riparian vegetation Creates undercut/overhanging bank habitat features. The preliminary stabilization concept currently does not include use of root wads, but this feature may become incorporated as design progresses. VRSS/Toe Wood Bank Stabilization Soil lifts created with a combination of root wads and long-lasting, biodegradable fabric and vegetated to stabilize steep slopes and encourage establishment of root systems for further stabilization. Creates undercut/overhanging bank habitat features. Approximately 6 locations of VRSS and/or toe wood bank stabilization are proposed in preliminary stabilization concept. 47 Design Element Purpose Ecological Benefit Outlet Adjustment and Stabilization Allows stormwater to outlet at an elevation more proximately to the channel elevation. This, along with placement of a material to dissipate flows, reduces potential for in-channel scour. When flows are appropriately dissipated, there is less sedimentation and associated turbidity in the waterway. Up to 10 outlet adjustments and/or stabilizations are proposed in preliminary stabilization concept. Floodplain Connectivity Active floodplain/vegetated bench—modifications made to the stream cross section to increase floodplain connectivity and decrease erosive stress during flood flows; for this project, constructed by raising the channel bed. Provides a smooth transition between in-channel, riparian, and upland habitat. Approximately 5 locations of opportunity to improve floodplain connectivity are proposed in preliminary stabilization concept. Vegetation/Buffer Established along a stream bank or overbank area to stabilize bare soils and increase resistance to fluvial erosion. Using trees, shrubs, and a seed mix of grass and forbs provides a diverse array of vegetation strata and habitat types. Allows for more naturalized aesthetics, with emphasis on native species. Project would be designed to comply with District buffer rules. Pond Enhancement Allows greater capacity for detention of flood flows and sediment removal. Removal of sediments that have accumulated in ponds over times allows for a healthier aquatic ecosystem by removing pollutants and creates better opportunity for TSS to settle out of the water column. The elevation of the Riley Creek channel would be raised three to five feet by constructing a series of rock riffles and natural boulder or log grade controls. These features will raise the elevation of the channel by providing areas of grade control, allowing higher flows to better extend outside of the creek channel and into the 48 floodplain. Allowing higher flower to more easily move outside the creek channel reduces the potential of further downcutting and associated erosion. In addition, a variety of bioengineering methods, including rock cross vanes, rock vanes, log vanes, root wads, and toe wood bank stabilization, will be incorporated across the proposed Project reach as needed to dissipate stream flows. Overbank areas would be graded to a stable, 2:1 or flatter slope and vegetated with native vegetation. In addition, the elevation of perched outlets and culverts would be adjusted as appropriate and the outfall areas stabilized to dissipate flow energies. Accumulated natural and foreign debris in the channel would be removed, allowing flows to pass through the channel unobstructed. The intent of the proposed Project is to be cut/fill neutral, meaning there will be no net gain or loss of soil materials from the Project site. 8.2 Management Activities 8.2.1 Inspections The RPBCWD and/or City of Chanhassen will conduct an annual inspection of the Project during the growing season each year. All inspections will include the tasks listed below, along with any other visual observation necessary. In addition, stream bank erosion issues often develop following high flow events; therefore the inspection tasks listed below should also be performed following storm events exceeding a 10-year return period for storm events with durations of 12 hours or greater, as defined by Atlas 14 and as recorded at the National Weather Service station in Chanhassen. • Inspect the condition of each of the stream bank protection locations throughout the Project Area. Criteria to note include but are not limited to the following: o For areas with riprap protection, should note:  The general condition of the riprap.  Observed displacement of riprap material. o For areas with rock vanes and cross vanes for bank protection, should note:  Displacement of boulders used to construct the vanes.  Potential undermining of the vanes due to scour immediately downstream of the vanes.  Flow patterns that appear to be eroding around the vane.  Any bank erosion within approximately 10 feet of the vane. o For areas with root wads for bank protection, should note:  The general condition of the root wads (moved, rotted, etc.). 49  Any bank erosion within approximately 10 feet of the root wad. o For areas with re-established vegetation, should note:  The general condition of seeded areas and vegetative plantings.  The survival rates of vegetative plantings.  The percent cover by grasses and forbs in seeded areas. • Document significant bank erosion locations, as defined as areas with raw, unvegetated banks greater than approximately two feet tall and with bank angles steeper than approximately 45 degrees. • Note any observed changes in the stream flow pattern or direction throughout the Project, and note other locations where bank protection may be required; • Examine storm sewer outlets for undermining, blockage and scour at the outlet and erosion; • Record location of accumulated debris, downed trees and branches that may adversely redirect the stream flow into the stream banks; • Take photographs to document the inspection findings in the preceding inspection tasks. The inspection results will be summarized in a brief inspection report as described in the ANNUAL REPORT section. Appendix B contains the inspection form to be used during field inspections. Over the life of the project, the inspection form may be periodically revised to improve inspection effectiveness, including but not limited to the implementation of a mobile data collection app. The assessment will be amended to this report (the Upper Riley Creek Corridor Enhancement Plan) and can be used to inform potential actions. 8.2.2 Maintenance Routine maintenance activities may include removal of fallen trees that may impede the flow of water, revegetating exposed soils, replacement of boulders for cross vanes, repair of displaced riprap and maintenance of buffer areas as identified through the inspection report. Maintenance will consist of activities to ensure that the flow of water is not impeded. All maintenance activities will comply with RPBCWD’s standard buffer maintenance requirements as summarized below: • Buffer vegetation must not be cultivated, cropped, pastured, mowed, fertilized, subject to the placement of mulch or yard waste, or otherwise disturbed, except for periodic cutting or burning that promotes the health of the buffer, actions to address disease or invasive species, mowing for purposes of public safety, temporary disturbance for placement or repair of buried utilities, or other actions to maintain or improve buffer quality and performance, each as approved by 50 RPBCWD in advance in writing or when implemented pursuant to a written maintenance plan approved by RPBCWD. • Diseased, noxious, invasive or otherwise hazardous trees or vegetation may be selectively removed from buffer areas and trees may be selectively pruned to maintain health. • Pesticides and herbicides may be used in accordance with Minnesota Department of Agriculture rules and guidelines. • No fill, debris or other material will be placed within a buffer. • No structure or impervious cover (hard surface) may be created within a buffer area. Routine Maintenance of the Project is defined as activities that will not require equipment that would adversely impact the Project area, as follows: • Removing fallen trees that are causing bank erosion; • Vegetation maintenance, such as vegetation replacement that does not require the use of heavy equipment within the Project area; • Replacement of cross vane boulders and repair of displaced riprap. Routine Maintenance does not include reconstruction of failed toe and bank stabilization design elements requiring heavy equipment. The City may solicit the RPBCWD for funding to address these non-Routine Maintenance repairs collaboratively. The City’s maintenance responsibilities will be determined based on the annual inspection report in combination with maintenance priorities, funding availability, and potential for impacts to public infrastructure. Maintenance needs and funding availability will be collaboratively reviewed by the City and RPBCWD on an annual basis. 8.2.3 Annual report A brief Project inspection and maintenance report will be developed on or before January 31 of each year. The report will contain the following information: • A summary of the inspection, including the presence or absence of any and all items specifically mentioned in the Inspections section above. • Describe any maintenance activities completed for the previous 12-month period ending December 31, including dates and actions. • A record of the location and quantity of any debris or fallen trees removed from Riley Creek. • List the type and quantities of materials used to repair bank protection at any repair locations stabilized. • A tabulation of costs for all labor, materials, and equipment involved in any maintenance activities for the previous 12-month period ending December 31. 51 9.0 Agreements Table 9-1 summarizes anticipated agreements required prior to construction of the Upper Riley Creek Restoration Project.
