There is potential future expansion area which would not expand the footprint of the building but rather enclose the outdoor storage area. The applicant is proposing the use of rock face block. The PUD requires that all walls shall be given added architectural interest through building design or appropriate landscaping. Horizontal bands, windows, and stepped back elevations accentuate the building. The overall design is of a high quality providing variation and detail on the facade of the building. The outdoor storage area is surrounded by the same material as the building and contains windows, which makes it an extension of the building. The PUD ordinance prohibits outdoor storage areas unless it has been approved under the site plan review and be screened with masonry fences and/or landscaping. This treatment is in keeping with the PUD requirements and will actually look like an extension of the buildings. The buildings will have the exterior appearance of a single building and will probably become a single building when the outdoor storage is enclosed in the future. The preliminary plat for Chanhassen Business Center was approved on January 13, 1992. As part of this application, one of the outlots will be replatted into 2 lots. The subject building is proposed to be constructed on Lot 2, Block 1, Chanhassen Business Center 4th Addition. This subdivision is consistent with the preliminary plat and staff is recommending approval of it. Approval of this site plan is contingent upon final plat approval of the Chanhassen Business Center 4th Addition by the City Council. Staff believes that the proposed development meets the standards established as part of the PUD and is recommending approval of the site plan and subdivision subject to the conditions . contained in this report. BACKGROUND On January 13, 1992, the City Council approved the preliminary plat for the Chanhassen Business Center as shown on the attached site plan. The PUD was amended on February 8, 1993 to allow for a church as a permitted use and the final plat for phase I of the project was approved. On April 24, 1995, the Chanhassen Business Center 2nd Addition, subdividing Outlot C into 7 lots, was approved by the City. On September 25, 1995, the City Council approved the replat of Outlot A into 4 lots, Chanhassen Business Center 3rd Addition. Eden Trace April 13, 1998 Page 3 On April 13, 1998, the City Council will review replatting Outlot D into 2 lots. The subject building is proposed to be constructed on Lot 2, Block 1, Chanhassen Business Center 4th Addition. The Chanhassen Business Center is an industrial/office park on 93.7 acres. The original plat consisted of 12 lots and 2 outlots. The ultimate development for this proposal was to have a total 01'700,000 square feet of building area with a mix 01'20% office, 25% industrial and 55% warehouse. GENERAL SITE PLAN/ARCHITECTURE OVERVIEW The proposed building is situated parallel to Lake Drive West. Access is gained off of Lake Drive West. Parking is located to the east, west and north of the proposed building. Direct views of the docks, which are located to the southwest between the two buildings, will be screened by the building. Staff believes the proposed layout of the building maximizes the screening of the docks. In addition, the applicant is proposing to add landscaping along the parameter of the site to maximize the screening. The building height is 18.8 feet, located 170 feet from the east, 50 feet from the south, 80' from the west, and 80' from the north property line. Materials used on the structure will be rock face block accented by horizontal bands. The building has several entrances and the walls are stepped back in several locations. Windows accent the buildings and the outdoor storage walls. Staff believes that the applicant should be commended for the overall layout of this site plan and the screening of the outdoor storage area. The applicant has not shown the trash enclosure location. Staff discussed this issue with the applicant and was informed that it will be located between the two buildings and screened from VIews. The overall design is of a high quality providing variation and detail on the facade of the building. DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS The development standards will remain the same as previously approved with the PUD. a. Intent The purpose of this zone is to create a PUD light industrial/office park. The use of the PUD zone is to allow for more flexible design standards while creating a higher quality and more sensitive Eden Trace April 13, 1998 Page 4 proposal. All utilities are required to be placed underground. Each lot proposed for development shall proceed through site plan review based on the development standards outlined below. b. Permitted Uses The permitted uses in this zone should be limited to light industrial, warehousing, and office as defined below. The uses shall be limited to those as defined herein. If there is a question as to whether or not a use meets the definition, the City Council shall make that interpretation. 1. Light Industrial. The manufacturing, compounding, processing, assembling, packaging, or testing of goods or equipment or research activities entirely within an enclosed structure, with no outside storage. There shall be negligible impact upon the surrounding environment by noise, vibration, smoke, dust or pollutants. 2. Warehousing. Means the commercial storage of merchandise and personal property. 3. Office. Professional and business office, non-retail activity. FINDING: The proposed uses oflight industrial and office are consistent with the parameters established as part of the PUD. As to the outdoor storage, Section F, Landscaping and Screening, states "Storage of material outdoors is prohibited unless it has been approved under site plan review. All approved outdoor storage must be screened with masonry fences and/or landscaping." This element is consistent with the guidelines of the ordinance. c. Setbacks In the PUD standards, there is the requirement for landscape buffering in addition to building and parking setbacks. The landscape buffer on Audubon Road is 100 feet south of Lake Drive. The 'PUD zone requires a building to be setback 50 feet from the required landscape buffer and public right-of-ways. There is no minimum requirement for setbacks on interior lot lines. The following setbacks shall apply from the right-of-way: B 'ld' P k' Ul mg ar mg Required (interior road system) 25' IS' Required (exterior road system 100' 100' Provided Lake Drive West 75' 25' Provided from Audubon Rd. 160' 100' Eden Trace April 13, 1998 Page 5 FINDING: The proposed development meets or exceeds the minimum setbacks established as part of the PUD. d.

Staff has estimated the required parking at 78 spaces. The applicant has provided 78 spaces. The applicant has shown proof of parking to accommodate the future expansion of the building. The parking requirements are in keeping with ordinance requirements. Building Square Footage Breakdown for entire development Office 20% 120,700 sq. ft. Manu facturing 25% 150,875 sq. ft. Warehouse 54.09% 326,425 sq. ft. Church 0.91% 5,500 sq. ft. Total 100% 603,500 sq. ft. FINDING: The proposed development meets the development standards established as part of the PUD. The city has previously approved the following square footage within the Chanhassen Business Center: church - 5,500 square feet; office - 43,603 square feet (National Weather Service, Power Systems, Paulstarr Enterprises and Construction Heaters, KNS Investments, Postal Service); and warehouse - 45,692.5 square feet (Power Systems, Paulstarr Enterprises, Postal Service and Construction Heaters). e. Building Materials and Design 1. The PUD requires that the development demonstrate a higher quality of architectural standards and site design. All mechanical equipment shall be screened with material compatible to the building. 2. All materials shall be of high quality and durable. Masonry material shall be used. Color shall be introduced through colored block or panels and not painted block. 3. Brick may be used and must be approved to assure uniformity. 4. Block shall have a weathered face or be polished, fluted, or broken face. 5. Concrete may be poured in place, tilt-up or pre-cast, and shall be finished in stone, textured or coated. 6. Metal siding will not be approved except as support material to one of the above materials or curtain wall on office components or, as trim or as HV AC screen. Eden Trace April 13, 1998 Page 7 7. All accessory structures shall be designed to be compatible with the primary structure. 8. All roof mounted equipment shall be screened by walls of compatible appearing material. Wood screen fences are prohibited. All exterior process machinery, tanks, etc., are to be fully screened by compatible materials. 9. The use of large unadorned, prestressed concrete panels and concrete block shall be prohibited. Acceptable materials will incorporate textured surfaces, exposed aggregate and/or other patterning. All walls shall be given added architectural interest through building design or appropriate landscaping. 10. Space for recycling shall be provided in the interior of all principal structures for all developments in the Business Center. FINDING: The applicant is proposing the use ofrock face block. The PUD requires that all walls shall be given added architectural interest through building design or appropriate landscaping. The plans include horizontal accent bands surrounding the building. The building design is of a high quality and meets the intent of the PUD design requirements. f. Site Landscaping and Screening 1. All buffer landscaping, including boulevard landscaping, included in Phase I area to be installed when the grading of the phase is completed. This may well result in landscaping being required ahead of individual site plan approvals but we believe the buffer yard and plantings, in particular, need to be established immediately. In addition, to adhere to the higher quality of development as spelled out in the PUD zone, all loading areas shall be screened. Each lot for development shall submit a separate landscaping plan as a part of the site plan review process. 2. All open spaces and non-parking lot surfaces shall be landscaped, rockscaped, or covered with plantings and/or lawn material. 3. Storage of material outdoors is prohibited unless it has been approved under site plan review. All approved outdoor storage must be screened with masonry fences and/or landscaping. 3. The master landscape plan for the CBC PUD shall be the design guide for all of the specific site landscape developments. Each lot must present a landscape plan for approval with the site plan review process. Eden Trace April 13, 1998 Page 8 4. Undulating or angular berms 3' to 4' in height, south of Lake Drive along Audubon Road shall be sodded or seeded at the conclusion of Phase I grading and utility constmction. The required buffer landscaping may be installed in phases, but it shall be required where it is deemed necessary to screen any proposed development. All required boulevard landscaping shall be sodded. 5. Loading areas shall be screened from public right-of-ways. Wing walls may be required where deemed appropriate. FINDING: Existing conditions on site include boulevard trees planted along Audubon Road and Lake Drive West. No tree removal will take place. Existing trees located in proposed construction areas will be transplanted to permanent locations. Landscaping requirements for the proposed development include buffer yard plantings along Audubon Rd., landscaping for the parking lots, and boulevard trees along Lake Drive West. The applicant meets or exceeds required quantities of planting materials for parking lot landscaping (20 trees) and boulevard trees (11 trees) along Lake Drive West. Buffer yard requirements are a minimum 30' Standard C for the 475' of frontage along Audubon. Planting totals for the buffer yard are 10 overstory trees, 24 understory trees, and 24 shmbs. Existing trees in that area include 10 overs tory trees. The remaining 24 understory and 24 shmbs will be required of the applicant and staff proposes they be planted adjacent to the parking lot. Along Audubon Road parallel rows of boulevard trees has been established on either side, understory and shrub planting would interrupt the consistency of the plantings and detract from the overall design of the street landscape. The additional required screening would work well of the west side of the parking lot. Staff recommends the understory trees and shmbs be planted in groupings near the edge of the parking lot. . ~. Signage 1. All freestanding signs be limited to monument signs. The sign shall not exceed eighty (80) square feet in sign display area nor be greater than eight (8) feet in height. The sign treatment is an element of the architecture and thus should reflect with the quality of the development. The signs should be consistent in color, size, and material throughout the development. The applicant should submit a sign package for staff review. 2. Each property shall be allowed one monument sign located near the driveway into the private site. All signs require a separate permit. 3. The signage will have consistency throughout the development. A common theme will be introduced at the development's entrance monument and will be used throughout. Eden Trace April 13, 1998 Page 9 4. Consistency in signage shall relate to color, size, materials, and heights. FINDING: The applicant has not provided details regarding signage for the site. All signs must receive a permit prior to installation. h. Lighting 1. Lighting for the interior of the business center should be consistent throughout the development. 2. A decorative, shoe box fixture (high pressure sodium vapor lamps) with a square ornamental pole shall be used throughout the development area for area lighting. 3 Lighting equipment similar to what is mounted in the public street right-of-ways shall be used in the private areas. 4. All light fixtures shall be shielded. Light level for site lighting shall be no more than 1/2 foot candle at the property line. This does not apply to street lighting. FINDING: The applicant has not provided lighting details or calculations for this development. However, city ordinance and the PUD standards provide sufficient control to assure compliance to an established standard. GRADING & DRAINAGE GRADING The site was previously graded in conjunction with Chanhassen Business Center 1 st Addition. Upon review of the preliminary grading plan, it appears building and parking areas will blend into the existing land form. The site will be re-graded to prepare the building pads and parking lot areas. If exporting or importing of earthwork materials is necessary, a haul route and traffic control plan will need to be submitted to the City for review and approval prior to construction commencmg. The site contains an existing earth berm along Audubon Road. The berm will only be disturbed as a result of utility extensions to the project. No other berms are proposed. DRAINAGE In conjunction with Chanhassen Business Center, a comprehensive storm water drainage system was constructed to address runoff from this site. No on-site ponding will be required with this Eden Trace April 13, 1998 Page 10 development. The plans propose on utilizing existing storm water services to convey stormwater runoff from the site into the City's storm drainage system. Staff does recommend that a storm sewer line be extended from the northeasterly driveway to Lot 1 for future service. A 20-foot wide drainage and utility easement shall be dedicated on the final plat over this storm sewer line. Staff is aware of an ongoing drainage problem on the Weather Bureau site as a result runoff from this property. The drainage problem will be resolved with development of this property. The applicant will need to submit to the City detailed storm drainage calculations and a drainage area map for a 10 and 1 OO-year storm event, 24-hour duration for staff review and approval in conjunction with final plat consideration. Depending on the calculations, additional catch basins may be warranted. Surface Water Management fees are not applicable to this subdivision since the property was preliminary platted prior to the SWMP fees being incorporated. In addition, all the necessary storm drainage improvements have been constructed. STREETS The project is proposed to be accessed through two new driveway access points off of Lake Drive West. Staff has reviewed the location of the driveways and are comfortable with their locations. The driveways in the parking lot provide good traffic circulation around the building site. There is an existing 6-foot wide concrete sidewalk on the north side of Lake Drive West. Upon review of the parking lot plan, it appears the drive aisle widths are too narrow. According to City Code Section 20-1101 and 20-1118, two-way drive aisles shall be 26-feet wide when adjacent to parallel parking. All drive aisles and parking stalls shall be redesigned to meet city code requirements. All driveway access points on Lake Drive West shall incorporate the City's industrial driveway . d.etail apron (Detail Plate No. 5207). This will also increase the driveway radii onto Lake Drive West. There are existing street lights along Lake Drive West that are not shown on the plans. The developer should verify that the access points will not be in conflict with the street lights. The applicant shall be responsible for any relocation of street lights in conjunction with site improvements. The conditions of approval for Chanhassen Business Center addresses future traffic signals at the intersection of Trunk Highway 5 and Audubon Road. At that time, staff believed that the installation of signals would be necessary in the next few years and a condition that the developer shall be responsible for a share of the local cost participation of this signal on a percentage basis, based upon traffic generation and full development of this site in relation to the total traffic volume on Audubon Road. In addition, staff required security to guarantee payment of the developer's share of the traffic signal for Phases I, II, and III. It should be worked between the parties whose responsibility it will be to provide the security escrow for the developer's share of Eden Trace April 13, 1998 Page 11 the traffic signal of this phase. The City currently has escrow in the amount of $5,000 from the developer ofChanhassen Business Center (DirlamlBetty O'Shaughnessy) for this traffic signal. At this point, staff will not require any additional escrow for the traffic as long as the $5,000 escrow is maintained. A traffic signal is proposed to be installed in conjunction with the Trunk Highway 5 upgrade proposed in the 2000-2002. UTILITIES Municipal utility service is available from Lake Drive West and Audubon Road. The plans propose on extending sanitary sewer and water service from Audubon Road and Lake Drive West. According to city records, there are no sanitary sewer services extended to the property line. The plans propose on cutting open Lake Drive West and extending a service from the existing sewer line. Staff believes that the site can be adequately served from the sanitary sewer line along Audubon Road. This would eliminate the need to cut open Lake Drive West. The applicant shall redesign the sanitary sewer layout to utilize the existing sanitary sewer along Audubon Road. The site does have water service extended to the property line from both Audubon Road and Lake Drive West. Again, staff believes that the site can be adequately served by water from the existing water service in Lake Drive West. The connection to Audubon Road should be discouraged due to the fact it will impact the existing trail, berm and landscaping. In addition, it may require turning off the city water line in Audubon Road during connection which would affect a number of residents. The City's Fire Marshal has reviewed the fire hydrant location and has requested some modifications to the plans. The utility plan shall be revised in accordance with the Fire Marshal's recommendations. The proposed sanitary sewer and water improvements shall be installed by the developer and/or their assignee. The utility improvements with the exception of a portion of the storm sewer will be considered private and not maintained by the City. These utilities will be inspected by the City's Building Department. The utility improvements shall be constructed in accordance with the City's latest edition of Standard Specifications and Detail Plates and/or State Plumbing Codes. This property has been previously assessed for sewer and water improvements under City Project No. 91-17. However, according to city ordinance, the property may be subject to additional sewer and water hookup charges at time of building permit issuance. Sewer and water hookup charges are determined based on the number of sewer availability charges (SAC units) which is determined by the Metropolitan Council Environmental Services upon plan review of the building. The applicant and/or contractor applying for the building permit will be responsible for Eden Trace April 13, 1998 Page 12 the sanitary sewer and water hookup charges. 1998 hookup charges for sanitary sewer and water are $1,216 and $1,584, respectively, per unit. MISCELLANEOUS The applicant should be aware that no construction activities may commence on the site until the final plat and development contract has been approved and recorded. LANDSCAPING Existing conditions on site include boulevard trees planted along Audubon Road and Lake Drive West. No tree removal will take place. Existing trees located in proposed construction areas will be transplanted to permanent locations. Landscaping requirements for the proposed development include buffer yard plantings along Audubon Rd., landscaping for the parking lots, and boulevard trees along Lake Drive West. Applicant meets or exceeds required quantities of planting materials for parking lot landscaping (20 trees) and boulevard trees (11 trees) along Lake Drive West. Buffer yard requirements are a minimum 30' Standard C for the 475' of frontage along Audubon. Planting totals for the buffer yard are 10 overstory trees, 24 understory trees, and 24 shrubs. Existing trees in that area include 10 overstory trees. The remaining 24 understory and 24 shrubs will be required of the applicant and staff proposes they be planted adjacent to the parking lot. Along Audubon Road, parallel rows of boulevard trees has been established on either side, understory and shrub planting would interrupt the consistency of the plantings and detract from the overall design of the street landscape. The additional required screening would work well of the west side of the parking lot. Staff recommends the understory trees and shrubs be planted in groupings near the edge of the parking lot. LIGHTING/SIGNAGE The applicant has not provided lighting details or calculations for this development. The applicant has not provided signage details for the project. However, city ordinance and the PUD standards provide sufficient control to assure compliance to an established standard. SITE PLAN FINDINGS In evaluating a site plan and building plan, the city shall consider the development's compliance with the following: Eden Trace April 13, 1998 Page 13 (1) Consistency with the elements and objectives of the city's development guides, including the comprehensive plan, official road mapping, and other plans that may be adopted; (2) Consistency with this division; (3) Preservation of the site in its natural state to the extent practicable by minimizing tree and soil removal and designing grade changes to be in keeping with the general appearance of the neighboring developed or developing or developing areas; (4) Creation of a harmonious relationship of building and open space with natural site features and with existing and future buildings having a visual relationship to the development; (5) Creation of functional and harmonious design for structures and site features, with special attention to the following: a. An internal sense of order for the buildings and use on the site and provision of a desirable environment for occupants, visitors and general community; b. The amount and location of open space and landscaping; c. Materials, textures, colors and details of construction as an expression of the design concept and the compatibility of the same with adjacent and neighboring structures and uses; and d. Vehicular and pedestrian circulation, including walkways, interior drives and parking in terms of location and number of access points to the public streets, width of interior drives and access points, general interior circulation, separation of pedestrian and vehicular traffic and arrangement and amount of parking. (6) Protection of adjacent and neighboring properties through reasonable provision . for surface water drainage, sound and sight buffers, preservation of views, light and air and those aspects of design not adequately covered by other regulations which may have substantial effects on neighboring land uses. Finding: The proposed development is consistent with the comprehensive plan, the zoning ordinance, the design guidelines established as part of the Chanhassen Business Eden Trace April 13, 1998 Page 14 Center PUD with the modifications outlined in the staff report, and the site plan review requirements. The site has few existing natural amenities due to previous development in the area. The site design is compatible and harmonious with the approved industrial developments throughout the city. PRELIMINARY PLAT FOR CHANHASSEN BUSINESS CENTER FOURTH ADDITION The preliminary plat for Chanhassen Business Center was approved on January 13, 1992. As part of this application, Outlot D will be replatted into 2 lots. The subject building is proposed to be constructed on Lot 2, Block 1, Chanhassen Business Center 4th Addition. This subdivision is consistent with the preliminary plat and staff is recommending approval with conditions. Approval of the site plan is contingent upon final plat approval of the Chanhassen Business Center 4th Addition by the City Council. Chanhassen Business Center 4th Addition Compliance Table: Lot # Lot Size - Acres 1 2.66 2 4.84 Subtotal 7.5 The City has an 8-foot wide bituminous trail adjacent to Audubon Road through the proposed subdivision. According to the preliminary plat, there is no trail easement recorded. In conjunction with the replatting of Outlot D, it is recommended that a 20-foot wide trail easement . be dedicated to the City over the proposed lots. In conjunction with site improvements for the subdivision, a stonn sewer line will need to be extended from Lot 2 to the west line of Lot 1. A drainage and utility easement should be dedicated on the final plat over Lot 2 for this extension. The minimum width shall be 20-feet wide. There is an underlying development contract with Chanhassen Business Center that should be amended to include this new 4th Addition. It is therefore recommended the applicant enter into an amended development contract with the City for this phase. EROSION CONTROL The preliminary erosion control plan is in general conformance with the City's Best Management Practice Handbook. Staff recommends that rock construction entrances be installed and maintained at all access points until the parking lot and drive aisles are paved with a bituminous Eden Trace April 13, 1998 Page 15 surface. Catch basins shall also be protected with hay bales and silt fence or rock construction dikes, as well. Staff recommends that additional erosion control fence be placed downstream of the utility extension from Audubon Road. In addition, erosion control fence needs to be installed along the westerly property line to the existing berm in the southwesterly corner of the property. SURFACE WATER MANAGEMENT PLAN (SWMP) Storm Water Quality Fees The SWMP has established a water quality connection charge for each new subdivision based on land use. Dedication shall be equal to the cost of land and pond volume needed for treatment of the phosphorus load leaving the site. The requirement for cash in lieu of land and pond construction shall be based upon a schedule in accordance with the prescribed land use zoning. Values are calculated using market values of land in the City ofChanhassen plus a value of$2.50 per cubic yard for excavation of the pond. SWMP water quality charge is $4,633/acre for industrial developments. The proposed development would be responsible for a net area of 4.84 acres which results in a water quality connection fee of $22,424. The applicant has provided on-site water quality ponds in accordance to the SWMP in Chanhassen Businesses Center 2nd Addition; therefore, these fees have been waived. Storm Water Quantity Fees The SWMP has established a connection charge for the different land uses based on an average city-wide rate for the installation of water quantity systems. This cost includes land acquisition, proposed SWMP culverts, open channels and storm water ponding areas for runoff storage. Industrial developments have a connection charge of $4,360 per developable acre. The proposed development would then be responsible for a net area of 4.84 acres which results in a water quantity connection charge of $21,102.

Intent The purpose of this zone is to create a PUD light industrial/office park. The use of the PUD zone is to allow for more flexible design standards while creating a higher quality and more sensitive proposal. All utilities are required to be placed underground. Each lot proposed for development shall proceed through site plan review based on the development standards outlined below. b. Permitted Uses The permitted uses in this zone should be limited to light industrial, warehousing, and office as defined below. The uses shall be limited to those as defined herein. If there is a question as to the whether or not a use meets the definition, the City Council shall make that interpretation. 1. Light Industrial. The manufacturing, compounding, processing, assembling, packaging, or testing of goods or equipment or research activities entirely within an enclosed structure, with no outside storage. There shall be negligible impact upon the surrounding environment by noise, vibration, smoke, dust or pollutants. 2. Warehousing. Means the commercial storage of merchandise and personal property. . 3. Office. Professional and business office, non-retail activity. c. Setbacks In the PUD standards, there is the requirement for landscape buffering in addition to building and parking setbacks. The landscape buffer on Audubon Road is 50 feet, south of Lake Drive and 100 feet along the southem property line. The PUD zone requires a building to be setback 50 feet from the required landscape buffer and public right-of-ways. There is no minimum requirement for setbacks on interior lot lines.

All buffer landscaping, including boulevard landscaping, included in Phase I area to be installed when the grading of the phase is completed. This may well result in landscaping being required ahead of individual site plan approvals but we believe the buffer yard and plantings, in particular, need to be established immediately. In addition, to adhere to the higher quality of development as spelled out in the PUD zone, all loading areas shall be Eden Trace April 13, 1998 Page 23 screened. Each lot for development shall submit a separate landscaping plan as a part of the site plan review process. 2. All open spaces and non-parking lot surfaces shall be landscaped, rockscaped, or covered with plantings and/or lawn material. 3. Storage of material outdoors is prohibited unless it has been approved under site plan review. All approved outdoor storage must be screened with masonry fences and/or landscaping. 3.

Each property shall be allowed one monument sign located near the driveway into the private site. All signs require a separate permit. 3. The signage will have consistency throughout the development. A common theme will be introduced at the development's entrance monument and will be used throughout. 4. Consistency in signage shall relate to color, size, materials, and heights. Eden Trace April 13, 1998 Page 24 h. Lighting 1. Lighting for the interior of the business center should be consistent throughout the development. The applicant's proposal is consistent with the lighting standards for the PUD ordinance. The plans do not provide for street lighting. As with previous industrial parks/roadways, the City has required the developer to install street lights throughout the street system. The street lights should be designed consistent with the existing lighting along Audubon Road. 2. A decorative, shoe box fixture (high pressure sodium vapor lamps) with a square omamental pole shall be used throughout the development area for area lighting. 3 Lighting equipment similar to what is mounted in the public street right-of-ways shall be used in the private areas. 4.

Staff recommends the preliminary plat be named Chanhassen Business Center 4th Addition. The City has an 8-foot wide bituminous trail adjacent to Audubon Road through the proposed subdivision. According to the preliminary plat, there is no trail easement recorded. In conjunction with the replatting of Outlot D, it is recommended that a 20-foot wide trail easement be dedicated to the City over the proposed lots. In conjunction with site improvements for the subdivision, a storm sewer line will need to be extended from Lot 2 to the west line of Lot 1. A drainage and utility easement should be dedicated on the final plat over Lot 2 for this extension. The minimum width shall be 20-feet wide. There is an underlying development contract with Chanhassen Business Center that should be amended to include this new 4th Addition. It is therefore recommended the applicant enter into an amended development contract with the City for this phase. .'lle Ci~)' ~rClJil}J!JiISSCI/.

A grcilt I'll(( to lirt', lI'od, illld I'liI): Sharmin AI-Jaff, Planner II March 9, 1998 Page 2 GRADING The site was previously graded in conjunction with Chanhassen Business Center 1st Addition. Upon review of the preliminary grading plan, it appears building and parking areas will blend into the existing land form. The site will be re-graded to prepare the building pads and parking lot areas. If exporting or importing of earthwork materials is necessary, a haul route and traffic control plan will need to be submitted to the City for review and approval prior to construction commencing. The site contains an existing earth berm along Audubon Road. The berm will only be disturbed as a result of utility extensions to the project. No other berms are proposed. DRAINAGE In conjunction with Chanhassen Business Center, a comprehensive storm water drainage system was constructed to address runoff from this site. No on-site ponding will be required with this development. The plans propose on utilizing existing stormwater services to convey storm water runoff from the site into the City's storm drainage system. Staff does recommend that a storm sewer line be extended from the northeasterly driveway to Lot 1 for future service. A 20-foot wide drainage and utility easement shall be dedicated on the final plat over this storm sewer line. Staff is aware of an ongoing drainage problem on the Weather Bureau site as a result runoff from this property. The drainage problem will be resolved with development of this property. The applicant will need to submit to the City detailed storm drainage calculations and a drainage area map for a 10 and lOO-year storm event, 24-hour duration for staff review and approval in conjunction with final plat consideration. Depending on the calculations, additional catch basins may be warranted. Surface Water Management fees are not applicable to this subdivision since the property was . preliminary platted prior to the SWMP fees being incorporated. In addition, all the .necessary storm drainage improvements have been constructed. EROSION CONTROL The preliminary erosion control plan is in general conformance with the City's Best Management Practice Handbook. Staff recommends that rock construction entrances be installed and maintained at all access points until the parking lot and Sharmin AI-Jaff, Planner II March 9, 1998 Page 3 drive aisles are paved with a bituminous surface. Catch basins shall also be protected with hay bales and silt fence or rock construction dikes, as well. Staff recommends that additional erosion control fence be placed downstream of the utility extension from Audubon Road. In addition, erosion control fence needs to be installed along the westerly property line to the existing berm in the southwesterly corner of the property. UTILITIES Municipal utility service is available from Lake Drive West and Audubon Road. The plans propose on extending sanitary sewer and water service from Audubon Road and Lake Drive West. According to city records, there are no sanitary sewer services extended to the property line. The plans propose on cutting open Lake Drive West and extending a service from the existing sewer line. Staff believes that the site can be adequately served from the sanitary sewer line along Audubon Road. This would eliminate the need to cut open Lake Drive West. The applicant shall redesign the sanitary sewer layout to utilize the existing sanitary sewer along Audubon Road. The site does have water service extended to the property line from both Audubon Road and Lake Drive West. Again, staff believes that the site can be adequately served by water from the existing water service in Lake Drive West. The connection to Audubon Road should be discouraged due to the fact it will impact the existing trail, berm and landscaping. In addition, it may require turning off the city water line in Audubon Road during connection which would affect a number of residents. The City's Fire Marshal has reviewed the fire hydrant location and has requested some modifications to the plans. The utility plan shall be revised in accordance with the Fire Marshal's recommendations. The proposed sanitary sewer and water improvements shall be installed by the developer and/or their assignee. The utility improvements with the exception of a portion of the storm sewer will be considered private and not maintained by the City. These utilities will be inspected by the City's Building Department. The utility improvements shall be constructed in accordance with the City's latest edition of Standard Specifications and Detail Plates and/or State Plumbing Codes. This property has been previously assessed for sewer and water improvements under City Project No. 91-17. However, according to city ordinance, the property Sharmin Al-Jaff, Planner II March 9, 1998 Page 4 may be subject to additional sewer and water hookup charges at time of building permit issuance. Sewer and water hookup charges are determined based on the number of sewer availability charges (SAC units) which is determined by the Metropolitan Council Environmental Services upon plan review of the building. The applicant and/or contractor applying for the building permit will be responsible for the sanitary sewer and water hookup charges. 1998 hookup charges for sanitary sewer and water are $1,216 and $1,584, respectively, per unit. STREETS The project is proposed to be accessed through two new driveway access points off of Lake Drive West. Staff has reviewed the location of the driveways and are comfortable with their locations. The driveways in the parking lot provide good traffic circulation around the building site. There is an existing 6-foot wide concrete sidewalk on the north side of Lake Drive West. Upon review of the parking lot plan, it appears the drive aisle widths are too narrow. According to City Code Section 20-1101 and 20-1118, two-way drive aisles shall be 26-feet wide when adjacent to parallel parking. All drive aisles and parking stalls shall be redesigned to meet city code requirements. All driveway access points on Lake Drive West shall incorporate the City's industrial driveway detail apron (Detail Plate No. 5207). This will also increase the driveway radii onto Lake Drive West. There are existing street lights along Lake Drive West that are not shown on the plans. The developer should verify that the access points will not be in conflict with the street lights. The applicant shall be responsible for any relocation of street lights in conjunction with site improvements. The conditions of approval for Chanhassen Business Center addresses future traffic signals at the intersection of Trunk Highway 5 and Audubon Road. At that time, staff believed that the installation of signals would be necessary in the next few years and a condition that the developer shall be responsible for a share of the local cost participation of this signal on a percentage basis, based upon traffic generation and full development of this site in relation to the total traffic volume on Audubon Road. In addition, staff required security to guarantee payment of the developer's share of the traffic signal for Phases I, II, and III. It should be worked between the parties whose responsibility it will be to provide the security escrow for the developer's share of the traffic signal of this phase. The City currently has escrow in the amount of $5,000 from the developer of Chanhassen Business Center Sharmin AI-Jaff, Planner II March 9, 1998 Page 5 (Dirlam/Betty 0' Shaughnessy) for this traffic signal. At this point, staff will not require any additional escrow for the traffic as long as the $5,000 escrow is maintained. A traffic signal is proposed to be installed in conjunction with the Trunk Highway 5 upgrade proposed in the 2000-2002. RECOMMENDED CONDITIONS OF APROV AL Subdivision 1.

OFFICE/W AREHOUSE BUILDING WITH OUTDOOR STORAGE. Sharmin AI-Jaff presented the staff report on this item. Joyce: Any questions for staff at this time? Sidney: Sharmin, I was wondering if you received any lighting or signage infOlmation since you prepared the report? AI-Jaff: We did define the criteria and the ordinance truly regulates what the signage should look like. There is enough control over that. Joyce: All right, with that said, is the applicant here and like to address the Planning Commission at this time? Mark Undestad: My name is Mark Undestad with Eden Trace. I really don't have much more to add to this. Joyce: What you see is what you get. Mark Undestad: We spent a lot of time on it and trying to get the design and things to work out and I think we've done that so. Joyce: Are there any questions for the applicant? Sidney: I guess just one general one. I was kind of curious why you chose to build two buildings rather than extend the larger ones? Planning Commission Meeting - March 18, 1998 Mark Undestad: A couple of different reasons. One, it's kind of an odd shaped lot and to really have visibility from Audubon, from Lake Drive West and then to the east too so in order to try to get the screening out in there, we thought eventually we're going to again hopefully expand into that outdoor storage area so for now to build the two buildings, get all the loading docks and everything screened in between the two buildings so you really don't have any loading front... Joyce: What are you storing outside? Mark Undestad: We're working with two different clients right now. One would be a... Joyce: You don't feel that they're going to go, it's a 13 foot high fence. Mark Undestad: Yeah, yeah. And no, the cabling, they can't stack them and they're only about 4 to 5 foot tall reels and they can't stack those. The slabs of granite are 6 to 8 feet and that's as tall as they would get so. We brought the screen walls up to about 13 feet to provide... Joyce: Why aren't you enclosing it now while you're constructing out there? Mark Understand: The cost. Joyce: Just the financial consideration? And you think there's a possibility you will enclose it at some time? Mark Undestad: Yeah, we hope to expand that, the front building in order to protect the rest of the space on there. Joyce: Oh, then that outdoor storage will turn into another portion of the building then? Okay. The only other question I had was on the landscaping plan. It was put together by this nature group and looking at the plant key, you might not even know. .. .and then nothing on the quantity section you have. Mark Undestad: Well actually they're redrawing a new plan based on the information in the staff report they received now so they're going to add some trees off on the west side over there. They're in the process of redrawing a plan right now that we'll get to staff probably some time next week. Joyce: Okay., But do you think that this plan is the one that they're going to be using here? Mark Undestad: We'll be adding to that plan. Joyce: Adding to that plan. Okay, great. That's all the questions I had. Mark Undestad: Thank you. 2 Planning Commission Meeting - March 18, 1998 Joyce: This is a public hearing so can I get a motion to open it?

Burton: It seems like a well conceived development and I really don't have any problems. Sidney: Looks really good to me. I'd like to compliment you on the plan.

The street lights should be designed consistent with the existing lighting along Audubon Road. 2. A decorative, shoe box fixture (high pressure sodium vapor lamps) with a square ornamental pole shall be used throughout the development area for area lighting. 3 Lighting equipment similar to what is mounted in the public street right-of-ways shall be used in the private areas. 4.
