The applicant shall work with staff to revise the landscape plan to meet minimum requirements for parking lot landscape, boulevard trees and buffer yard plantings as specified 13 Planning Commission Meeting - April 15, 1998 Blackowiak: It hasn't been seconded. Peterson: Yes it was. Generous: I believe you have to act on the amendment first to the motion and then... Burton: .. . offer a friendly amendment as part of the last... Conrad: We have to vote on the motion. Peterson: There's been a motion and a second. Burton moved, Brooks seconded that the Planning Commission recommends approval of Site Plan #98-4 for a 50,400 sq. ft. building or a 113,600 sq. ft. building, site plan prepared by Smuckler Architects dated March 10, 1998, and subject to the 18 conditions presented in the staff report with one addition presented by Commissioner Burton. All the commissioners voted in opposition and the motion failed unanimously. Peterson: Is there another motion? Joyce: I make a motion that the Planning Commission recommends approval of Site Plan #98-4 for a 50,400 square foot building, site plan prepared by Smuckler Architects dated March 10, 1998 subject to conditions 1 through, I believe we had 19. I'd have to do redo those conditions, wouldn't I? 18 being, make sure that the root top enclosures were screened with compatible materials. And number 19, that the applicant insure that the pedestrian access and access to trail system for this property. Peterson: Is there a second to this motion? Conrad: Second. Peterson: Discussion. Brooks: Well I just wanted to say that, I don't think the Planning Commission is against your large building. I think what we don't like is the architectural style of the building. I think we're becoming really weary of how Chanhassen is starting to look with all these warehouses. So... because I didn't get the feeling any of us were against the large building, or against what you're trying to do. It's just the look of it, and you've got to admit when you drive around Chanhassen, the warehouses are not a pretty site. And there's not a lot you can do but there's something you can do. Peterson: Any further discussion? 12 Planning Commission Meeting - April 15, 1998 Brooks: I'll reluctantly second. Peterson: Any discussion? Conrad: Yeah, we don't have to give approval for the second large building. Joyce: That's what 1... Conrad: I also think the motion should talk about staff making sure, present to the City Council that the connection, the trail connections, pedestrian connections, I think that's got to be real clear. It's a big building. Big site. Several employees so I think there should be a better demonstration of how it's connected. The large building is real repetitive and I think we all share the same concern. I think the proposal is okay but it's certainly probably not the great thing that we envisioned. I think the smaller building works. I think the message to the developer is, from here on out maybe we're going to have different expectations of what goes there but I'd just make those comments. The motion's there. Peterson: ... Conrad: I would make a friendly amendment to the motion that the staff presents, the staff and applicant presents to the City Council all the trail and pedestrian connections in the formal staff report. Burton: I think I'll, if! can, amend my motion to delete the reference to the 113,600 referenced building. Fred Richter: Can I speak to the issue of...? This PUD, this property was guided by the City for an industrial office park. The nature of office, industrial is large buildings. Our PUD grants us a certain floor area ratio.. .on land, the marketplace for us to do a successful, we need large buildings. I just want to say that that's, we went forward with the PUD. It's our understanding that we can have large buildings on this property. Large buildings by their nature are repetitive. .. .go on record that we feel that it's our right... The City made a decision, they wanted this type of taxes on the property. They made a very concerted effort to define where the retail is. They made a very concerted effort to put parameters on property that abuts Highway 5 and 41 with design constraints. We're talking about an interior lot that is guided for these uses and these sizes. And that is you know. . . we made our investment in the property and so on. Brooks: Can I respond to that? Peterson: No. Actually, thank you for your comments. We've got a motion and a second on the table and we need to vote on it.. . after do that, we can come back... Aanenson: Was the motion going to be amended or? Peterson: Well, can he amend a motion after it's been seconded? 11 Planning Commission Meeting - April 15, 1998 Generous: Correct. Joyce: But we will someday hopefully have, we're looking at some conference centers and some things like that. Generous: And convenience commercial. . . Joyce: I don't have much else to add. I'm not.. .by it. The building that's there right now look like any other office park, warehouse. It looks like a warehouse really is what it is and I had higher expectations for this PUD. I really thought we were going to try to do something more creative and so far it has not been. You know if we're just doing an office park like over here in the Chanhassen Business Center, that's one thing but I didn't get that understanding when we went through all the process. I agree with Allison. You've got the same parking out in front. I don't see any, it doesn't really look that pedestrian friendly. It looks like another office park. If that's what we're doing, then we've got a big office park out there. I mean I'm not going to, I'll vote for it but I'm not thrilled with it. .. . development more in the future and get some more interesting things other than warehouses. I mean it's just a warehouse. Peterson: Well I too am a little frustrated. I look at the 113,000 square foot building and I see ten entrances being virtually equal distance apart. Identical in nature. I just see a lot of the same and that disquiets me to say the least, and I don't see creativity. I too, like Kevin, had higher expectations and I'm not at all comfortable with approving a large 113,000 square foot building only because it's just overwhelming and in a spot that I think can offer a lot more. And I guess under some duress I would approve two buildings only because it does separate and give it at least a little bit softer, a little bit more inviting than the one large building. Architecturally it is like everything else and again I think that now is the time for us to say let's do something creative and different and now I'm placing economics aside by saying that and whether that's an issue, but yet it doesn't prevent me from sharing those thoughts so to that end I'm not comfortable with the large building. I'm comfortable with the changes that have been made that could have been integrated into the two separate buildings. With that, may I have a motion and a second please. Burton: I'll move that the Planning Commission recommend approval of Site Plan 98-4 for a 50,400 square foot building. Peterson: Subject to the following conditions. Go ahead and make your motion and then I'll respond accordingly. Burton: Or a 113,600 sq. ft. building, site plans prepared by Smuckler Architects dated March 10, 1998, subject to the following conditions and it's 1 through 17 and I would add 18. That all roof mounted equipment shall be screened walls of compatible appearing material or camouflaged to blend into the building or background. Peterson: We have a motion. Do we have a second. 10 Planning Commission Meeting - April 15, 1998 going to be covered up by a second building, I guess we can kind of live with that in the meantime. Finally, I had trouble because it talked about the building being similar in terms of the Heartland and I certainly hope that gets painted quickly because it's, I really wouldn't want it to be similar to Heartland right now. But really that's about it. Generally I think it's good. I would like to make sure that staff works with the applicant to carefully review pedestrian and bike access to the project because that's a very important part of this entire PUD so I would really want to make sure that that gets addressed as well. Peterson: Thank you. Matt? Burton: I pretty much agree with all the comments, particularly Alison's comments regarding landscaping because ifit does take a while for the Phase II of the smaller building to be built, it would be nice to have some landscaping, especially on the west and north sides. The other item that I threw out there is the staff report brought up the concern about screening and the applicant did address that but I did notice that it's not part of the conditions and I would.. .consider a condition that the roof mounted equipment be screened and that shouldn't be a problem since they're planning on that. And I guess that's it. Peterson: Thank you. LuAnn. Sidney: Well I made a few comments and tipped my hand about my concerns and I guess kind of starting off, at first when I saw the original renderings I was concerned that we were getting too much of the same thing and I think the applicant has done a good job in improving the architectural features of the building. I am concerned however because I still have a feeling that the textures, lack of texture on both buildings is too much the same and I'd like to see other possibilities and I think maybe the entrance forms is an area where a different texture could be used to add some interest to the buildings. I'm concerned with the polish or the look to the building. I would like to reiterate, if! can say it, staff comments about not supporting additional buildings that incorporate the same materials or design as the first two site plan proposals and I feel very strongly about that. I think since these buildings are more in the center of the development, I feel a little more comfortable but I think we need some more variety next time around. That's all I have for now. Peterson: Thank you. Kevin. Joyce: Mr. Chairman, I apologize for being late. I have one quick question for staff. Have we tossed about the idea of any commercial going in there? ..all allocated towards office and industrial warehouse. Generous: Well within the entire Arboretum Business Park there are 4 lots, or 4 parcels that are designated for. Joyce: ... the PUD, the entire PUD is going to have some commercial. I didn't understand it and I got a building square footage breakdown. It's just right now zero commercial. 9 Planning Commission Meeting - April 15, 1998 Fred Richter: .. .what happens then is what people said and.. .so that's why we need to be in a position.. . try to have this coincide with the final plat. We've had preliminary plat approved so... Then that allows us to you know pull the permit. . . Peterson: Other questions from fellow commissioners? Thank you. Seeing none, may I have a motion to open this to a public hearing and a second please. Sidney moved, Burton seconded to open the public hearing. The public hearing was opened. Peterson: This is a public hearing. Anyone wishing to address the commission, please come forward and state your name and address please? Seeing none... Brooks moved, Blackowiak seconded to close the public hearing. The public hearing was closed. Peterson: Ladd. Can we have your comments on this one please. Conrad: I'm okay. I agree with the staff report. Peterson: Alyson. Brooks: I guess I don't have anything against it. I don't find the building itself particularly architecturally intriguing in any way... with the parking in front like any warehouse. It just detracts from the building and looks unpleasant but it is what it is. I'm not overwhelmed by it. I'm a little under whelmed. I don't see any reason to stop it either. Peterson: Recommendations to improve it or. Brooks: Not really off the top of my head. I think it would have been better if things were recessed...in front is flushed and I'm not sure, I don't know. It's a warehouse. You know I wish somehow we could move the parking or hide it. I don't think it ever helps when the parking's out in front. I think visually your eyes.. . and again it is what it is and I'm not sure there's much we can do. Peterson: Allison. Blackowiak: Yeah, I really don't have a lot to say. A couple comments I guess. If indeed they are looking for the smaller of the two buildings, the 50,000 square foot building, Phase I, I would ask if there could be something done, some type of landscaping or something on the second part. Could we do that now in conjunction with Phase I as opposed to have it just wait? Specifically along the back of the lot. I think that would be kind of west side. On the north side against the street. I think those would be some things that maybe could be added to improve the general appearance to the area yet not be disturbed by any future construction. Secondly, the north side, I kind of agree with the comments that the north side is visually not terribly appealing but if it is 8 Planning Commission Meeting - April 15, 1998 Sidney: Yes. A question about the rationale behind two buildings versus one smaller building with the potential for expansion. I guess I'm wondering why you would select two separate buildings but not really when I see the rendering here, now it angle off all the comers that are visible to Century Boulevard. This looks like you took an eraser and kind of went down the middle of the building. Steve Krapek: The rationale of why the entries are where they are is because historically there's a certain tenant size that you can.. . and you're trying to be as accommodating as you can to all the tenants that you can have and so you essentially.. . structurally end up with an entry at every third bay. There really isn't any need from.. .because the entry that would go to this final tenant along that side is taken care of back. .. The difference in the two buildings is that again, the marketplace is very competitive and people have different needs and if a large anchor tenant came in, they may have different needs in terms of their storage type... Some people have high rack storage. Some have low rack storage. The predominant market at this moment, am I correct is that they don't need to have high rack storage. So they're trying to accommodating enough for a long term tenant that might need that. You look at that as a potential to give something that's not readily available in the marketplace but.. . overbuild high rack storage when it's not something that you actually need, it's really not either serving the marketplace and if the cost that the developer has to incur, that it really isn't going to be recovered. And so I think until it's settled out which they tenant they go and what the marketplace is saying that they demand, that's why the flexibility is there. But they're trying to be as accommodating as they can to all parties. Fred Richter: I think the building's flexibility is defined by the.. . and we design and own our buildings so we also look for. .. You see a lot of the tenant bays moving to Hopkins, Eden Prairie and moving out... At this point in time we're trying to do this site plan... Sidney: One more question about material. I'm wondering ifit's possible to have a different type of texture in the entrance forms. Is that a possibility? Steve Krapek: It is a possibility. The materiaL.. tends to be the most attractive one I believe of all of them. The smooth finish is the one you pay the most premium for and it gives you the greatest facility to manipulate color. You know as you go into a form that has some sort of texture or surfacing about it, it tends to distort the paint. It tends to wear off quicker. It tends to put more of a premium on that finish and. . . Blackowiak: ...PUD standards and this is office industrial warehouse, am I correct? Do you have anybody you're looking at or is it still kind of up in the air? Fred Richter: .... Blackowiak: So with what you're looking at right now, would that be looking at the smaller building which you said was more manufacturing oriented? 7 Planning Commission Meeting - April 15, 1998 would be the street frontage. And it's this elevation. The rendering elevation and what's a bit confusing in that drawing is that this element that you're seeing here in this rendering, it's at a 45 degree angle so it appears skewed and narrower on that building elevation than it is in actual fact. It's the same width as all the other ones. The north elevation that's shown on that same sheet that's down in the middle of, down here. That would be one of the internal facades when the second building was built and so it really isn't of much point, there's really no entry to... Peterson: And your primary people using that entrance are going to be truck traffic. . . back side of the building, correct? Steve Krapek: I don't believe that we'll bring trucks that way. I think the intent is to bring them down this road in the back. And also along the other one and not have trucks circulate through the center of that parking. That would be more for office and warehouse. Fred Richter: But hopefully all the truck traffic is... Peterson: But visually it would be limited to the users of the building primarily? Steve Krapek: And I think Fred made a good point. That until the...is filled, you are correct in assuming that. . . Peterson: Other questions? Joyce: I have no other questions. Regarding the pedestrian access. I don't see any sidewalks or link ups to the trails and I noticed that was on. Fred Richter: ...I think right now we just haven't detailed it but Bob, you can correct my memory, are we on the east side...? Generous: It was always proposed that on the east side of Century Boulevard, the trail system would be and then connecting to Coulter Boulevard going to the east. Which is on the north side of Coulter. Fred Richter: And it'd be the same thing going north. Aanenson: Correct. It loops around. Generous: Yeah, and then there's an internal trail and then a street trail that would connect to the north side of Highway 5. Fred Richter: I think a site plan detail, you'll give us some guidance, we will have some connection for the pedestrians to cross... Peterson: Other questions? 6 Planning Commission Meeting - April 15, 1998 that we were talking about is rather than have one long facade that was 300 feet long, we bumped those entry forms out 5 feet. Peterson: Other questions. Joyce: What's different with the west elevation as far as the treatment versus, is there any difference? Steve Krapek: The west elevation is different in the character of the skin of the building. The front of the building.. .are smooth, similar to the building that was. .. The back part, the west elevation and this band that's above this.. . reveal which would be here, is still the smooth finish. The back.. .are you familiar with what that looked like. Joyce: I saw that in the report. Steve Krapek: Essentially they take a. . . Fred Richter: The west elevation is all loading docks... Steve Krapek: And it's finish tends to create a lot more shadow lines than a smooth face would. I won't say that... Fred Richter: As Bob pointed out earlier, the good thing that the site plan is, our west elevations always face into a hill. So basically doing the west elevation is almost... for the most part the west elevations face into... Peterson: Move to the north elevation. Assuming that that is, at least for a period of time, the majority of your traffic is going to be coming down that road from the north. Your first impression is a pretty cold and blank wall of the small rendering that I'm looking at at least of the building. Steve Krapek: Well it's exactly this shot and it's a fairly deceiving elevation because if you look at this plan. Fred Richter: There's some confusion on that because in both cases, you're looking at this north elevation but that would be, that would be the elevation for a period of time but our intent is to do the next building, another 50,000 square foot building and that would become an internal elevation but it could be a year. . . where that would be the north elevation. The only difference is that we aren't... Peterson: Even on the larger building, the north elevation, the only difference seems to be six windows that are.. .on the rendering. Steve Krapek: No. The north elevation that's shown at the top of your sheet that would say EDO 5. In that instance the north elevation is down here at the long end of this property so that 5 Planning Commission Meeting - April 15, 1998 Fred Richter: .. . system is a very smooth finish with a.. . reveals and all those reveals then are complimented or articulated by the changing color. So you actually get the... through the change of color. Not necessarily the depth. The only way you would get articulation through depth would be shade and shadow and even if it were 2 inches, it would be very nominal so through the basically taking this smooth concrete which then becomes like a palette for painting and you can really then develop... very cost effective way compared to other industrial buildings where the options aren't... combining them with changes in paint colors. Steve Krapek: The other thing that I would add to that is that you know typically other buildings that are of this scale that aren't pre-cast, and they aren't masonry, tend to be that EFIS.. . system. The styrofoam that has the stucco.. .on top of it. Traditionally even in just for instance the Dayton's that's over at Southdale. Those reveals are no deeper than an inch, two inches. The difference hopefully in this one is that we have fairly wide reveals compared to some of those longer ones and you know we've done different things to try to break that mass down and color becomes a fairly important part of that process. The revealing and the diamonds and that tend to give a certain rhythm and flow to that building so that it just isn't this big blank sort of thing but obviously there's only so much you can do with a lot of blank wall and the color is really a fairly important part of that. Peterson: Is this building material essentially the same as the previous? It's just a different color. Fred Richter: It's the same structural concept, basic concept... Peterson: Other questions from fellow commissioners? Conrad: So the rendering is really not accurate? Steve Krapek: No, the rendering is fairly accurate. This one? Peterson: The one that we have. .' 'Conrad: The one that you just passed around. Steve Krapek: Accurate in what way? Conrad: The depth. Steve Krapek: Yes it is. The entry forms that are shown here previously as it was submitted, it was all one flat facade. There was no stepping out of these entry forms at all so. Conrad: This looks like 2 feet and you were just saying 2 inches so. Steve Krapek: No. I'm sorry. What we're talking about the is the depth of these reveals, like this red stripe, these diamonds. This panel sits back from the face of that panel. The other issue 4 Planning Commission Meeting - April 15, 1998 paneling aren't that... so we felt we needed to bring in some additional color to help bring those along. That's the color that's shown here and I believe...it doesn't show very well on that screen but all the colors, the two that are here are actual paint samples from the paint.. . sent to us. They give you fairly good indication of the direction that we're going. This lower band that goes below the windows is again still precast. .. As I mentioned before, the back of this building will have the...pre-cast concrete finish. The front of this is smooth... The diamonds that are shown here are. .. The parapet walls above the roof line is high enough so the mechanical equipment is screened. We also think that. . .and the treatment that we did along the top of that building in raising that panel up slightly higher tends to break that long facade a little different than you've seen traditionally in a lot of the other buildings around here. Some of them have made that gesture but they've done it with metal roof forms that are back from the building and they haven't actually changed this perimeter or the skin at all. And we've done that. This panel now is an inset panel that's just being painted a different color. It isn't recessed that was indicated probably by the shadowing when we did this rendering a couple days ago. But the entry glass is recessed some to give you some reliefback... And again this band that's shown here is the one that's shown in this perspective.. . about an inch or two and they'll be painted in those stripes. Peterson: You speak of that reveal being an inch or two in depth. Walk through if you would, are they all. . . or are some of them greater in depth than others? Steve Krapek: Well I think if we look at this, and it's rather small. I'll pass this around so you can get a better feel for what this color is actually like. I think obviously there's an issue of exiting and life safety so each one of these bays will have an entry and I believe that this.. .it's sitting back and it probably will only happen if the primary entity. .. wouldn't you think? Peterson: That was my second question so you can answer them both. The depth of the entrance and the reveals, architectural reveals being the diamonds and the character around the entrance itself. Are they 2 inches also like your band or are they a foot? Steve Krapek: No, the walls themselves are only a foot thick.. .insulated panels. About 3 inches to 4 and then the insulation is integral in that.. .so those reveals will be on the order of an inch and a half to 2 inches.. .the engineers and the problem of how much revealing we have and.. .but I would think that the diamonds could be deeper than the horizontal reveals and typically they're between an inch and an inch and a half. Peterson: Discuss the possibility if you would, going deeper... My sense is architecturally you'd get more character out of more depth but what are the alternatives, is that possible based upon the current building or not? I could be wrong. I'm just giving my opinion there. Steve Krapek: Well you could maybe go 2 inches. In asked them, you know without that additional cost, you are limited by that first thickness of concrete because as I said, it's a very ingenious system that they came up with buildings insulated with styrofoam in-between those pours and they have. . . the thickness of that wall so in all of that that I've ever seen is 2 inches. 3 Planning Commission Meeting - April 15, 1998 Peterson: Now you're drawing the line and you're saying no more like this after this one? Generous: That was my point, yes. Peterson: Okay. To that end, does the applicant or their designee wish to address the commission and if so, please come forward and state your name and address please. Fred Richter: I'm Fred Richter with Steiner Development and I have with me tonight Steve Krapek ofSmuckler Architects. He'll speak to the color renderings and the tile massing of the project. And also Peter Kordonowy our property manager for the first Steiner buildings in the Arboretum Business Park. Let me just give you a little insight into why we have two options in front of you. We're trying to develop the Arboretum Business Park for industrial and following the PUD, as you recall, there are certain sites that will front on Highway 5 and 41 and those will have, in some cases, different uses that's outlined in that PUD. We are owners and developers of multi-tenant office-warehouse projects. Our first building is fully leased up and we'll be finishing the final construction at the painting and landscaping right away starting next week and leaving through the month of May. Looking at trying to move the project along, the City, ourselves invested in Century Boulevard and we picked this site. It's already graded. It's ready to go and Century Boulevard will be blacktopped to the site. Looking at the square footage and the potential of this site as outlined in the PUD, it yields I think Bob said up to 117,000 square feet of floor area ratio. Looking at the market place, it's changed. We're in a more mature market now. There's getting to be quite a bit of vacancy, especially in the southwest. Shakopee and even in the east side ofChanhassen. So we're proposing two, because we want to get an anchor tenant before we start construction. So if we have a larger tenant, one of 50,000 square feet, it would trigger the larger building. If we get a smaller tenant, something in the neighborhood of a minimum of around 18-20,000 square feet, we would do the smaller building and then phase the second building. The object obviously is to, from our standpoint, not to overbuild the market and have a lot of vacancy. So that's why we're looking for the flexibility. Currently we're marketing both buildings and we have interest in both but until we have a signed tenant, we don't want to move forward so we appreciate your consideration on that flexibility. Other than that, I think I'll turn it over to Steve and he can run through the final color selections and I'll just preface one final statement. The staff comments we reviewed the issue of the protruding mass versus the recessed mass is fine with us. We've made that adjustment. Steve will show you the impact of pulling basically the area around the entrance out versus recessing. Steve Krapek: As Fred said, I'm Steve Krapek with Smuckler Architects. On the overhead, if you want to do it that way. You can see a perspective from the corner. The building that's shown in this perspective is the higher of the two proposals that we've shown and the longer one. As you can see in this area, this is the area that we discussed with Bob in terms of pulling all those entry forms open. If you look on the plan, it's probably easier to.. . forward but you can see that it runs between the entrance... I believe are three bays long. Giving sort of multiple opportunities for... The color schemes that we used tended to be those that we discussed with Bob. Also the colors that were sort of compatible with what we felt. .. On all the entry forms we tend to darken up the entry so that. . . scale of the building down.

City Engineer PUBLIC HEARING: STEINER DEVELOPMENT IS REQUESTING SITE PLAN REVIEW FOR TWO OFFICE INDUSTRIAL WAREHOUSE BUILDINGS UP TO 113.600 SQ. FT. LOCATED AT THE NORTHWEST CORNER OF CENTURY BOUEL V ARD AND COULTER BOULEVARD ON PROPERTY ZONED PUD. ARBORETUM BUSINESS PARK. Bob Generous presented the staff report on this item. Peterson: Questions of staff from fellow commissioners. One clerical in nature. If you look at the.. .113,600 building that says it will be built on 9.16 acres and then you look at Lot 3 as being 8.98. Where's the difference coming from or is that just. Generous: It's moving through the line in the project. It's slightly north of halfway. Peterson: If there's no questions, I think the key thing I guess really seeing a better rendering of what the proposal is and...some of those changes are. The other item you talked about in the staff report, and I quote in the other paragraph it says, the staffwill not support additional buildings that incorporate the same materials or design elements as the first two site plan proposals. You also inferred that it's similar to the first building and.. . falling into a gray area about similarity versus distinctly different. Do you see the first building on that site is developing, that the difference with the current...in front of us tonight, is that substantially different or are you talking abruptly different in it's dealing in architecture or is the difference that you see... for additional buildings in that development. Generous: I believe, what I'm looking for is when we have another building that might be similar, office warehouse type that they incorporate additional materials so that we don't have only tilt up cOl~crete paneling in there. Maybe block face. Some I'm aware we're looking at for at least the highway frontages would probably be brick and steel and glass finishes. Peterson: Is it safe to assume then you're somewhat accepting this one being somewhat similar to the first one? Generous: Yes. Right.

STREETS/PARKING LOTS The City's Public Improvement Project No. 97-1 will be completing a portion of Century Boulevard up to the east leg of Coulter Boulevard this spring. The applicant has submitted a petition to the City to extend Century Boulevard and Coulter Boulevard west of Century Boulevard. Without this improvement project the site plan shall be considered premature since there will be inadequate utility improvements and street systems to accommodate this development. The drive aisle widths throughout the project appear to be in conformance with City Code. Staff recommends that the truck access onto Coulter Boulevard be increased from 26 feet wide to 30 feet wide to accommodate truck traffic. In addition, the turning radius onto Coulter Boulevard needs to be increased to accommodate turning movements. Industrial driveway aprons will be required at all access points onto city streets. The City has a standard plate (5207) which should be utilized. EROSION CONTROL The grading, drainage and erosion control plan needs to be modified to incorporate erosion control fence and erosion control blanket on slopes in excess of 3: 1. All storm sewer inlets shall be protected with silt fence, hay bales or rock filter dikes until the parking lot has been paved with a bituminous surface. MISCELLANEOUS The City's boulevards must be restored with sod. The landscaping proposed along the westerly slopes of the site should incorporate landscape materials which will help secure the steep slopes. The site is currently platted as an outlot. The applicant will need to final plat the site to Arboretum Business Park 2nd Addition. In addition, an addendum to the existing Development Contract/PUD Agreement will be necessary. Final plat documents need to be submitted to the City a minimum of three weeks prior to final plat consideration by the City Council. CONDITIONS OF APPRO V AL 1.

Therefore, only minor site grading will be necessary for the building pad and parking lot construction. The grading plan overall is in general conformance with the development plan for Arboretum Business Park. Given the site's topography, berming will not be achieved along Century Boulevard. The site is actually anywhere from one to ten feet above Century Boulevard. DRAINAGE In conjunction with Phase I of the City's public improvement project for Arboretum Business Park, storm sewer improvements have been installed along Century Boulevard. Phase II of Arboretum Business Park will include street and utility improvements to accommodate this site. The storm sewers proposed on the site plan will need to be redesigned to coordinate with the City's public improvement project. Detailed storm drainage calculations including drainage area maps for a lO-year, 24-hour storm event shall be submitted to the City Engineer for review and approval prior to issuance of a building permit. UTILITIES Municipal sanitary sewer and water has been extended in conjunction with the City's Public Improvement Project No. 97-1 along a portion of Century Boulevard adjacent to the site. However, no individual sanitary sewer or water service has been extended at this time to service the lots. In conjunction with Phase II of the City's public improvement project individual sewer and water services will be extended to the lots.

All roof mounted equipment shall be screened with walls of compatible appearing material or camouflaged to blend in the building or background. 19. The applicant and staff shall present to City Council a detailed presentation of all pedestrian and trail connections with the site. The Planning Commission explained that they were not against the developer having a larger building on the site. Rather, they did not like the architectural style ofthe building. They stated, "we're becoming really weary of how Chanhassen is starting to look with all these warehouses." If the developer wants a larger building, they should try additional architectural treatments, rather than continuing the same long expanse of wall, broken intermittently by entrance features, but no other significant relief. The Planning Commission had an expectation that development within the PUD would be of a higher quality and incorporate additional architectural features than in standard industrial warehouse areas. They felt that the larger building did not meet that expectation. Staff believes that condition 18 is already incorporated in the design standards for Arboretum Business Park by standard e. Building Materials and Design which contains this same language as well as a prohibition against the use of wood screen fences. In addition, rather than adding condition 19 to the conditions of approval (which would duplicate Design Standard i. 2.), staff will present the City Council with our recommendation for trail connections. Trails shall be located on the east side of Century Boulevard and on the south side of the Coulter Boulevard extension west of Century Boulevard. Staff is recommending that the applicant provide a pedestrian connection from the southeast comer of the building to the intersection of Century Boulevard and Coulter Boulevard west of Century Boulevard. Pedestrians could then cross to the south side of Coulter Boulevard and use the cross walk to cross Century Boulevard. Within . ~.he site, a pedestrian area will be provided between the building and the parking lot. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the following motion: "The City Council approves Site Plan #98-4 for a 50,400 sq. ft. building or a 113,600 sq. ft. building, site plan prepared by Smucker Architects dated March 10, 1998, subject to the following conditions: 1. The development must comply with the Development Design Standards for Arboretum Business Park. Arboretum Business Park 2nd Addition April 15, 1998 Page 8 (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: Subject to the revisions contained in the staff report, the proposed site plan is consistent with all plans and specifications and development design standards for the Arboretum Business Park Planned Unit Development. PLANNING COMMISSION UPDATE As part of their presentation to the Planning Commission, the developer incorporated staff s recommendation to project the entrance features (five feet) out from the face of the building. This was exactly what staff envisioned. The change created a varied facade breaking up the flat surface of the building and at the same time differentiating this building from the Heartland building to the south. The Planning Commission held a public hearing on April 15, 1998 to review the proposed site planes). A motion to approve the 50,400 square foot building or the 113,600 square foot building failed unanimously. A second motion was made recommending approval of the 50,400 square foot building only. The second motion passed unanimously subject to the conditions of the staff report and the addition of conditions: Final Plat - Arboretum Business Park 2nd Addition May 11, 1998 Page 9 creeks.

The assessment interest rate will be bond sale rate plus 1 Y2%, then rounded up to the nearest Y2%. The assessment payback is not known yet but will be a minimum of 5 years. Staff is recommending the following conditions be added after review of the development proposal for this phase of the project: 33. The developer shall dedicate to the city a temporary turnaround easement over Lot 1, Block 1 and Lot 1, Block 2 to construct a turnaround with a 43-foot radius at the end of Coulter Boulevard.

The grading and storm water pond construction has been completed for Phase I and part of this phase. Grading for this phase will include Coulter Boulevard west of Century Boulevard and Lots 1 through 4, Block 4. The City's water tower site will also be included. Security will be required to guarantee site grading of Coulter and Century Boulevards and erosion control measures. DRAINAGE In conjunction with the City's Public Improvement Project No. 97-1D, a storm water drainage system will be constructed within Coulter Boulevard to convey most of the development's storm water runoff for this phase and future phases into the existing stormwater ponds for pretreatment prior to discharging into the wetlands. UTILITIES Under the City's Public Improvement Project No. 97-1D, the City will be installing . the sanitary sewer and water lines necessary to serve this phase and subsequent phases. The developer will be assessed their fair share of the improvements in accordance with the feasibility study. A 20-foot wide drainage and utility easement is being dedicated over Lots 1 and 2, Block 2 for extension of a watermain to the City's water tower site (Outlot A). A cross access easement should also be granted to the City over these lots for access in case development of these lots impede the access along the 20-foot wide drainage and utility easement. . City ofChanhassen. A growing community with clean lakes, quality schools, a chaJming downtown, thriving businesses, and beautiful parks. A great place to live, work, and pldy. Bob Generous Arboretum Business Park 2nd Addition May 5, 1998 Page 2 STREETS This phase will include street improvements along Century Boulevard up to the north lot line of Lot 4, Block 1 and a temporary cul-de-sac at the end of Coulter Boulevard. Eventually Coulter Boulevard will be extended out to Trunk Highway 41 with a right-in/right-out when MnDOT upgrades Trunk Highway 41. Additional street easement will be necessary for the temporary cul-de-sac to construct a turnaround with a 43-foot radius at the end of Coulter Boulevard. The street will be constructed under the City's contract for Project No. 97-lD. Based on traffic studies, this development and future phases will impact local and regional transportation systems from an operational and safety standpoint. Traffic signals will be necessary at the intersections of 82nd Street West and Trunk Highway 41 as well as Trunk Highway 5 and Century Boulevard. The signals at 82nd Street and Trunk Highway 41 are scheduled for installation in 1999. With Phase I the developer escrowed with the City a financial guarantee for their share of the local cost participation for construction of auxiliary turn lanes and traffic signals at 82nd Street and Trunk Highway 41. No additional security will be required with this phase. The final plat proposes to dedicate sufficient right-of-way for the roadway systems throughout. The future extension of Coulter Boulevard west of Century Boulevard is proposed with an 60-foot wide right-of-way, in accordance with City subdivision regulations. Sidewalksffrails will be constructed as a part of the street improvements. A 5- foot wide concrete sidewalk will be installed along the south side of Coulter Boulevard and an 8-foot wide bituminous trail along the east side of Century Boulevard. MISCELLANEOUS Since this development requires a public improvement project to construct the infrastructures and streets to serve the site, final plat approval should be conditioned upon the City awarding a contract for Improvement Project No. 97- ID. The developer could be allowed to commence with site grading conditioned upon entering into Addendum B to the Development Contract/PUD Agreement with the City for Arboretum Business Park and providing security to guarantee erosion control measures and site restoration. The administration fees total $143,069 which includes 1/3 trail fees, SWMP fees and recording fees (see attached breakdown of fees dated 5/5/98).
