PHYSICAL CHARACTER.: .~ The site was previously graded as part of the W oodridge Heights Development. The existing house on Lot 14, Block 3, Woodridge Heights will be demolished. Some of the trees surrounding the farmstead will be cleared as part of this addition. 2000 LAND USE PLAN: Low Density Residential W oodridge Heights 3rd Addition March 18, 1998 Page 2 PROPOSAL/SUMMARY The applicant is proposing to replat four lots from the First Addition into five lots and vacate the previous lot perimeter drainage and utility easements and dedicate new easements with this plat. As part of the original plat, the existing farmstead was being preserved for the property owner and, therefore, a larger than ordinary lot was preserved around the home. Currently, the property owner is relocating outside the community and the existing house is to be razed. The proposed subdivision complies with all city ordinance requirements. Staff is recommending that the city approve the replat of the lots into five lots subject to the conditions of approval. BACKGROUND <..... On March 10,1997, the City Council approved rezoning of approximately 37.92 acres from Rural Residential (RR) to Single Family Residential (RSF), second reading; final plat approval for 35 Lots, two Outlots,and associated right-of-way, Woodridge Heights Addition. The City Council also approved the preliminary and final plat for the subdivision of 13.5 acres (Outlots A and B, Woodridge Heights) into 10 lots and 2 outlots, Woodridge Heights 2nd Addition On October 14, 1996, the city granted a one year preliminary plat extension for Shamrock Ridge until November 27,1997. On August 28, 1995, the City Council approved a one year extension, until November 28, 1996 for preliminary plat for Shamrock Ridge Addition to subdivide 37.92 acres into 45 single-family lots and a wetland alteration permit to fill and dredge wetlands located on site. The applicant received a Wetland Alteration Permit on October 24, 1994 for activities to fill and dredge wetlands as part ofthe Shamrock Ridge Addition preliminary plat approval. The applicant was granted extensions of this permit in 1995 and 1996. The applicant amended the mitigation design to reduce tree impacts and consolidate the mitigation into one area. GRADING The proposed lots were graded in conjunction with W oodridge Heights. Minimal grading activity is anticipated on Lot 5 to reduce the steep side yard slopes thereby minimizing possible erosion problems and enhancing the topographic features of these lots. The existing tree located on the north property line of proposed Lot 5 will be lost due to the grading activity. All other trees outside of building pads are proposed to be saved. There was an existing home (Ryan) on Lots 3 and 4. The home has been moved and basement will be demolished. DRAINAGE f In conjunction with W oodridge Heights, all the necessary storm drainage improvements including ponding were constructed. No additional storm drainage improvements are necessary. Surface Water Management fees were paid with the first phase. Woodridge Heights 3rd Addition March 18, 1998 Page 3 UTILITIES All of the lots have municipal water and sewer service except Lot 3. A one-inch water service and six-inch sanitary sewer service needs to be extended from Briarwood Court to the lot. The utility installation shall be in accordance with the City of Chanhassen 1998 Edition of Standard Specifications and is to be completed and inspected by the City prior to the final lift of asphalt pavement on Briarwood Court. All street restoration shall be completed within 7 days after construction commences. One lane of traffic must be maintained at all times. The contractor shall be responsible for providing the appropriate traffic control. The existing home has been removed and/or demolished. The well and septic system abandonment shall be coordinated with the City's Building Inspection Division. The proposed replat will require the foundation drain tile for Lot 16 to be relocated to accommodate the new lots. The normal water and sewer hook-up fees will apply and will be collected at the time of building permit issuance. A revised as-built grading and utility plan, and tie cards that reflect correct lot numbers and plat name shall be supplied to the City upon completion of the utility work. STREETS Street access is provided from Briarwood Court. PARKS AND RECREATION The proposed plat shall pay an additional park and trail fee for the additional one Lot. Parks and trail fees for the 3rd Addition shall be paid at the rate in effect at the time of building permit application. LANDSCAPING AND TREE PRESERVATION Tree removal resulting from the lot split will not affect the total replacement or reforestation totals for the development. However, the additional lots will be required to have one deciduous tree planted in the front yard setback area corresponding with the landscape plan for the other homes on Briarwood Court. Staff's only concern relates to the landscaping proposed for Lot 1, Block 3 since the lot split results in a reduction of 10 feet in the width of the landscape area bordering Lake Lucy Road. The applicant may not reduce landscaping in this area and will need to prove that tpere will be sufficient room for the plant material and still allow the homeowner access to the side yard. MISCELLANEOUS The lots are subject to a development contract under the plat of Wood ridge Heights. This new plat will require an addendum to the development contract to include this phase and any conditions of approval. The addendum to the development contract will be considered at the Woodridge Heights 3rd Addition March 18, 1998 Page 4 time of final plat approval. The rep1at will require the vacation of easements of record, i.e. side yard drainage/utility easements.

Included are the following documents: Landscaping Requirement spreadsheet; Section nfEG Rod Tree Plan obtained from the City; and Section of Wood ridge Heights Landscape Plan. A few notes regarding my spreadsheet calculations: · The total site area of Wood ridge Heights 3rd Addition is 113,364 SF. · The rough area of the wetland to be deducted is 14,400 SF leaving a net area of98,964 SF, · The existing canopy coverage includes all of the trees around the fonner Ryan home as well as the 34 trees installed by Centex as indicated on the landscape plan for Woodridge Heights. I have used the noted areas from the City's copy of the Rud plan. Also, I have assumed a canopy of 1089 SF/tree for the Centex installed trees, consistent with the city ordinance. · Using the above numbers, the Base Line Canopy Coverage equates to 57%. Using the City Matrix for Low Density Residential, the Minimum Canopy Covemge should be 35% or 34,637 SF. Due to the high number of trees planted with Woodridge Heights, we have surpassed the Landscaping Requirement by 20 trees. · We anticipate a canopy loss of approximately 6,520 SF. This would include the clump maple to the south of the Ryan home, the tree pines to the northeast of the Ryan home and one pine behind the Ryan home. All other trees will be saved. Using the City's replacement calculation, seven trees would be required for replacement. · If I understand the ordinance correctly, no additional trees would be required for landscaping or replacement purposes. Please review my calculations and let me know ifthere are any errors or inconsistencies. I can be reached at 4 I 6-2 I 77. Thank you. Cc: file Planning Commission Meeting - March 18, 1998 3.

Let me just follow through with your thoughts Kevin and explain where we've been and where we're going with this process. Again this is a continuation of the comprehensive plan update.

One that shows up on the plat where Lake Lucy... the mitigation is taking place in the large wetland complex in the western part. Brooks: So there is wetland mitigation? Generous: Yes.

AND BRlARWOOD COURT, WOODRlDGE HEIGHTS 3RD ADDITION. Bob Generous presented the staff report on this item. Joyce: Are there any questions for the staff at this time? Sidney: I guess Bob I was wondering if you could explain, I didn't quite understand when you talked about a reduction of 10 feet in width to the landscape area. What that concern was. Generous: A reduction of 10 feet what? Joyce: On Lake Lucy Road. Sidney: Yeah in the width of the landscape area. That's on page 3 at the bottom. Generous: Dh they were, our city forester was concerned that they be able to provide all the landscaping that they showed within the original subdivision within that area. Aanenson: Streetscape. Generous: Yes, we believe that that can go in there. They made the first lot a little bit wider. Joyce: At this time would the applicant like to address the Planning Commission, please step forward and give us your name and address please. Ryan Gideon: Ryan Gideon with Centex Homes, 12400 Whitewater Drive, Suite 120, Minnetonka, Minnesota. I'm available for any questions you might have. I would address your concern or the issue of the lot against Lake Lucy Road. We would be likely restricting to one of our narrower houses. The landscaping falls well within the 30 foot setback for a comer lot so there shouldn't be any issues there. Joyce: Any questions for the applicant at this time? Okay, I'd like to open this up for a public hearing please. May I have a motion? Blackowiak moved, Sidney seconded to open the public hearing. The public hearing was opened. Joyce: Thank you. Would anybody like to address the planning Commission on this topic? Please step forward. Seeing none, I'd like to close the public hearing. 12
