Regulations
The city has a relatively high level of discretion in approving Comprehensive
Plan amendments because the city is acting in its legislative or policy-making
capacity.
SUGGESTED ACTION
The Chanhassen Planning Commission recommends that City Council approve amending the 2040
Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map from Residential - Large Lot to Residential - Low Density for
PID 25-4070020, generally located at 6651 Galpin Boulevard.
SUMMARY
Requesting to reguide the property from Residential Large Lot to Residential Low Density. The
catalyst for the land use map amendment is the addition of sewer and water service access. Section

BACKGROUND
This property is located in the Lake Lucy Highlands development which was platted in 1986. This
large-lot subdivision is a part of many similar developments that occurred right before the city placed
restrictions on the development of properties at a minimum density of one unit per ten-acre
development density.
Since the 2020 Comprehensive Plan update and subsequent comprehensive plan updates the subject
property and adjacent properties east of Galpin Blvd have been and continue to be assigned as
Residential Large Lot. Properties on all four sides of the Lake Lucy Highlands plat are guided
Residential Low Density.
DISCUSSION
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of the requested Comprehensive Plan Amendment reguiding the subject
property from Residential Large Lot to Residential Low Density.

The city has a relatively high level of discretion in approving Comprehensive Plan Land Use
Map Amendments because the city is acting in its legislative or policy-making capacity.
Notice of this public hearing has been mailed to all property owners within 500 feet.
APPLICABLE REGULATIONS
The city has a relatively high level of discretion in approving Comprehensive Plan amendments
because the city is acting in its legislative or policy-making capacity.
Amendments to the City’s Comprehensive Plan are at times required to be reviewed and
commented on by adjacent adjoining jurisdictions. This adjacent review can be waived if the
proposed amendment involves less than 40 acres, does not change a communities growth
forecasts or Traffic Analysis Zone (TAZ) allocations; and is either more than ¼ mile from an
adjacent jurisdiction or beyond the distance the communities adopted ordinances require
notice to adjacent or affected property owners, whichever distance is less.
Staff has conferred with the City’s sector representative to the Metropolitan Council and the
city has received a waiver of jurisdictional notice due to meeting the requirements as
established by the Metropolitan Council.
PROPOSAL/SUMMARY
The Applicant is requesting a land use map amendment from Residential – Large Lot to
Residential – Low Density.
BACKGROUND
This property is located in the Lake Lucy Highlands development which was platted in 1986.
This large-lot subdivision is a part of many similar developments that occurred right before the
implementation of the current one unit per ten-acre limit came into effect.
In the 2020 Comprehensive Plan update and subsequent comprehensive plan updates, the
subject property and adjacent properties east of Galpin Blvd have been and continue to be
assigned as Residential Large Lot. Properties on all four sides of the Lake Lucy Highlands plat
are guided Residential Low Density.
EXISTING CONDITIONS
On the east end of the property there is a wetland that flows through the natural vegetation
areas within Lake Lucy Highlands. This wetland has not been delineated but is included in the
National Wetland Inventory (NWI) map by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources.
Further delineation will be required if the property owner applies for the subdivision of the lot.
Based on current staff estimation 0.78 acres are considered undevelopable due to the wetland,
wetland buffer, and the required setbacks.
This property is heavily wooded, approximately 1.6 acres of the 2.5 total acres is forest that
interconnects with surrounding properties to form a natural passageway to Lake Lucy and the
6
Page 3 of 5
Lake Ann Park Preserve. The wooded area of this property provides a protective natural buffer
for the wetland. The city believes this is an integral chain of natural resources therefore
requires its protection from development through the city code section 18-61(d).
These existing conditions result in approximately 1.6 acres of the 2.5 total acres being
undevelopable. If the applicant decides to pursue a subdivision to create an additional lot, the
net density based on developable land will be approximately 2.22 dwelling units an acre, this is
within the requirements of the Residential Low-Density future land use which is 1.2-4 units per
acre.
ANALYSIS
The catalyst for the land use map amendment is the addition of sewer and water service access.
Section 2.13.2 of the 2040 Comprehensive Plan discusses the possible extension of urban
services to properties serviced by on-site sewage disposal systems. In these instances, it is the
city’s policy to review land use and zoning changes on an area-wide basis.
The existing zoning of the property, Rural Residential District, RR, is consistent with the current
land use designation of the property, Residential - Large Lot. Should the city approve the land
use amendment to Residential – Low Density, the comprehensive plan allows less intensive
land uses to remain in place. However, any approval by the city for subsequent development of
the property must be consistent with the comprehensive plan and would need to meet the
regulations in the city’s zoning and subdivision ordinance.
The proposed land use map amendment would permit the further subdivision of the property
into two lots. The property owners would like to sell their current house and build a retirement-
friendly home on the new lot they would create on the south half of the property.
MUNICIPAL SERVICES – SANITARY SEWER & WATER
The home on this property is currently serviced by well and septic, but the property has two
sanitary sewer and water stubs for the connection of the current home and a new home on the
South end of the property. These service stubs were added during the reconstruction of Galpin
Boulevard in the summer of 2024. The watermain predates the Galpin road project, however it
is located on the west side of the road and service lines didn’t span across the road for the
properties to access, with the reconstruction these extensions were added.
The City of Chanhassen engineering department evaluated with the planning department
ahead of this reconstruction the potential possibility of additional homes along this span of
Galpin Boulevard. The planning department and engineering department concluded that it was
a possibility and therefore the stubs were added to the scope of the project. The following
properties currently have two sets of utility stubs: 6621 Galpin Blvd, 6651 Galpin Blvd, 6681
Galpin Blvd, and 6691 Galpin Blvd.
7
Page 4 of 5
This additional scope to the road project ensures the newly constructed Galpin Boulevard will
not be torn through in the future for additional stubs, thus maintaining the longevity of the
road, free of issue road patches pose.
SURROUNDING LAND USE AND ZONING DESIGNATION
This grouping of properties with the land use designation of residential - large lot are all within
the Lake Lucy Highlands plat. This plat consists of 19 lots and one outlot with the land use
designation of parks – open space.
Outside of the Lake Lucy Highlands plat the surrounding properties are residential – low density
land use with some interspersed parks – open space land use.
LAND USE ZONING CONSISTENCY
The following zoning districts are consistent with Residential – Large Lot land use:
• Agricultural Estate District, A-2; and
• Rural Residential District, RR.
The following zoning districts are consistent with Residential - Low Density land use:
• Single-Family Residential District, RSF;
• Mixed Low Density Residential District, R-4;
• Residential Low and Medium Density Residential District, RLM; and
• Planned Unit Development – Residential, PUD-R.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN GOALS AND POLICIES
The proposed amendment from Residential – Large Lot to Residential – Low density assists in
the furtherance of the following land use goals and policies of the City of Chanhassen
Comprehensive Plan:
Development will be encouraged within the MUSA line.
• The plan should seek to establish sufficient land to provide a full range of housing
opportunities.
• Development should be phased in accordance with the ability of the city to provide
services.
• Support low-density residential development in appropriate areas of the community in
such a manner as to maintain the aesthetics of existing single-family areas, and to create
new neighborhoods of similar character and quality.
• Designate sufficient land to provide for a wide spectrum of housing.
The proposed amendment assists in the furtherance of the following housing goals and policies
of the City of Chanhassen Comprehensive Plan:
• A balanced housing supply with housing available for people of all income levels.
• A variety of housing types for people in all stages of the life-cycle.

Density 1.4 Units/Acre
Applicable
Regulations
Chapter 18, Subdivision,
Chapter 20, Article XXII, RSF Single-Family Residential District
SUGGESTED ACTION
Recommend approval of the requested preliminary plat with variance for cul-de-sac length, and
wetland alteration permit for the proposed Pleasant View Pointe plat subject to the conditions of
approval and adopts the attached Findings of Fact and Decision.
SUMMARY
The Applicant is proposing the subdivision of 13.65 acres of properties, zoned Single-Family
Residential and guided for Low-Density Residential into nineteen lots and one outlot.
18
BACKGROUND
The properties are divided into three prior plats: Vineland, Vineland Forest, and Troendle Addition.
First is the historical Vineland plat in 1887; due to the age of this plat the roads do not match currently
existing roads, nor do the street names. The scale of the area it once included is unknown due to the
missing measurement units. Four of the parcels included in this subdivision and the water tower parcel
next door have not been replatted since this plat.
The next plat is the Vineland Forest platted in 1990. There is only one parcel in the proposed new
subdivision that is from this plat and it has since gone through a lot line adjustment and lot combination
in 1996.
The final plat Troendle was platted in 1991; one parcel in the new proposed subdivision is included in
this previous plat as an outlot. As a condition of the Troendle plat approval the developer was required
to create a temporary cul-de-sac with a sign affixed at the end notifying residents of the future extension
of Nez Perce. Additionally, the developer was required to place a notice on each lot’s chain of title that
Nez Perce will be ultimately extended as a through street to Pleasant View. These conditions were due
to the fact the plat included a dead-ending cul-de-sac 1,400 feet long. The requirements at the time of
approval were vague, stating the maximum length of a dead end shall be determined as a function of the
expected development density along the street, thus resulting in the conditions of approval.
DISCUSSION
RECOMMENDATION
“The Chanhassen Planning Commission recommends the approval of the requested preliminary plat,
wetland alteration permit, and variance, for the subdivision on Pleasant View Road subject to the
conditions of approval and adopts the attached Findings of Fact and Decision.”

D. Introduction
On October 14th at the City Council work session, we presented the City Council with a concept
plan for developing the Beddor property at 955,1015 Pleasant View Rd. There were two items in
particular that we were seeking guidance on as a part of that review. Item one was if we should
extend Nez Perce to connect to the Troendle Addition and item two was how, if at all, we should
provide an alternative access point to the water tower. After some discussion, the general Council
direction was to not connect Nez Perce to the Troendle neighborhood and that staff was going to
review the need for an alternative water tower access.
Our Concept Plan continues to comply with or exceed the requirements of the RSF zoning district.
That said, one variance is required for cul-de-sac length. This comes from listening to the desires of
23
Pleasant View Pointe – Preliminary Plat
December 20, 2024
Page 3
3
the adjacent neighbors at the neighborhood meeting and from subsequent City Council direction to
not connect Nez Perce Drive. This is addressed in greater detail below.
E. Site Characteristics
1. Woodlands
We have completed a tree survey and inventory. There are 777 trees that qualifled as signiflcant
for the survey. The City enforces tree preservation by evaluating the percentage of tree canopy
being removed. The tree preservation plan, inventory and calculations are included on pages
14-18 of the preliminary plat submittal. Based on the City canopy preservation calculations we
will be required to plant 91 trees, shown on our landscaping plan, to offset the project impact to
the existing canopy.
As we mentioned in our concept plan, we did try to keep the majority of trees that boarder the
property and we are preserving the two endangered White Walnut (Butternut) trees shown on
our survey on Lot 1, Block1 of the Preliminary Plat.
2. Topography
The high point on the property is 1046 on the
south end of the site near the water tower and the
lowest point is 993 in the north pond area. The
majority of the southern property generally fiows
to the north and to the existing pond offsite to the
west, with smaller site areas fiowing offsite to the
east and south. Overall, there is around 50 ~ feet
of topographical change across the property
depending on existing pond depth. Post
development the drainage patterns will be
similar, however, more area will be captured and
routed to a new stormwater management system
and areas currently discharging offsite to the
west, south and east will be reduced.

December 20, 2024

3. Wetlands
There was much conversation between us and the Technical Advisory Panel (TEP) regarding
the status of Pond 1. We felt that there was enough evidence of previous impacts and City
approvals to call the pond a pond versus a wetland. In large part that was due to a grading
permit issued by the City of Chanhassen on September 4, 1992 which authorized the
construction of a new pond (Pond 1 currently on the Beddor property). This permit
approved fllling an existing pond on the property and expanding and reconflguring the
approved Troendle addition pond. The new pond met the NURP standards for storm water
treatment for Troendle Addition but also expanded the ponding area to accommodate
future roadway work and additional future development of the Beddor property. Without
getting lost in the technical arguments the TEP believed that based on historical aerial
photo reviews, not the grading
plan approved in 1992, that a
portion of the existing pond is
historic wetland. At the time we
are writing this narrative we have
not yet received the formal
Notice of Decision from the TEP.
What we have heard is that the
TEP was comfortable
recommending that Wetland 1
and the Historic portion of Pond
1 as shown in our plans be
considered wetlands in the
Notice of Decision so this is what
is included as wetlands in the
Preliminary Plat Plan Set and
calculations.
4. In our concept narrative we noted that we would be requesting a wetland alteration permit for
wetland #1. We are now also expanding that request to include the area now shown as historic
remnant wetland within existing Pond 1. We are submitting a wetland alteration
permit/replacement plan concurrent with our preliminary plat application.

F. Plan Details
• Lots – 19
• Lot Sizes
o North Portion 32,745 – 64,625 sf –
averaging 42,830 sf
o Southern Portion 18,123 – 42,541 sf –
averaging 22,746 sf
• The set-backs used for the lots follow the
required setback of the RSF and are
shown on the site plan – see page 5 of
the preliminary plat plan set.
1. Roadways
• Nez Perce – As mentioned in the introduction the preliminary plat does not include a
Nez Perce connection to the Troendle neighborhood. A number of neighbors at the
neighborhood meeting mentioned not wanting the connection for fear of cut through
traffic and that changing the exiting traffic pattern which has been in place for over 30
years did not seem necessary. A neighborhood representative also explained the
neighborhood’s desires during the concept review with the City Council.
The exhibit shown on the next page and a sperate plan provided with the submittal
illustrates how a portion of the existing Nez Perce Drive right of way (ROW) will be
vacated and a portion of the Nez Perce ROW will be retained. Within the New Perce
ROW being retained, the existing roadway will be removed and replaced with a trail.
Connected and adjacent to the portion of the Nez Perce ROW being retained is an
Outlot A. This Outlot will be dedicated to the City and is 50’ wide to match the width of
the ROW. A trail connection to the Troendle Addition will be included within Outlot A
and the unvacated portion of Nez Perce. Additionally, the Outlot/ROW corridor will be
used for utility connections, portions of driveways accessing homesites within Pleasant
View Pointe and could also serve as a roadway connection in the future if there ever was
a need for such a connection.
26
Pleasant View Pointe – Preliminary Plat
December 20, 2024

With the removal of the Nez Perce Drive connection Peaceful Lane will now continue
south terminating in a cul-de-sac. While the ROW width has historically been 50’ in this
area, the ROW width will be 60’ and roadway 31’ wide consistent with current City
standards. No sidewalk is proposed which is consistent with the surrounding
neighborhoods.
• Redman Lane/Peaceful Lane - A portion of peaceful land(AKA Redman Lane) which
extends to the water tower was previously approved to be vacated by the City. It
appears that vacation may never have been recorded. We are working with our title
company to determine the official status and will either vacate Redman Lane or
incorporate it into our plat as needed.
2. Easements and Vacations
With our Preliminary Plat there will be a number of vacations needed to move and relocate
roadways and other various easements beyond those described above. These are shown
below on the following page and also on a separate exhibit provided with the submittal.
27

December 20, 2024

3. Variance Request
With the changes described above to Nez Perce the length of cul-de-sac for Peaceful Lane will
now be roughly 1,040’ long, exceeding the city standard of 750’. During concept review, it
appeared that the Council and Staff would accept this variance and understood that it was a
necessity if Nez Perce Drive was not connected. There was also discussion about other similar
precedents within the City. A couple examples include: Della Drive at the Bluffs at Lake Lucy
1,350’ cul-de-sac approved in 2020, Gunfiint Trail 1,210’ in Highcrest Meadows approve in 2005,
and Preserve Court 1,230’ in Preserve at Rice Creek approved in 2015 to name a couple.

4. Traffic
Comments received from residents who participated at the neighborhood meeting are attached
as an exhibit.
a. Lake Lucy Road - There were a number of residents living along Lake Lucy Road, in
particular, that were concerned about increased traffic creating further dangerous
conditions on Lake Lucy Road. It appears to us that not connecting Nez Perce
should help ameliorate those concerns.
b. Peaceful Lane/Pleasant View Road – Similarly a resident on Peaceful Lane and on
Pleasant View Road expressed concerns about traffic onto Pleasant View Road and
asked that a direct connection to Powers Blvd should be considered. Adding an
additional intersection onto Power Road (County Road 17) does not seem practical
or likely to be approved by the City or County vs using Pleasant View Road which is
already classifled by the City as a collector roadway.
5. Storm Water
The proposed stormwater management plan will modify and enlarge the existing pond. The
storm sewer inlet from Troendle additional will remain (alignment will be modifled) and
proposed pond outlet will be installed in the same location as the existing pond storm sewer
outlet. Currently the pond is sized to handle the wet volume NURP storage for the onsite
drainage area as well as for the portion of the Troendle addition already draining to the pond. In
addition to the NURP treatment there is a flltration bench that will treat the required watershed
water quality volume of 1” over the proposed impervious surfaces. The flltration bench will
include an underdrain/fllter submersed within a specially designed soil mix.
As a part of the revised storm pond and storm water treatment system we will need to vacate a
portion of the City’s previous drainage and utility easement . It will be reconflgured to coincide
with the new treatment system. Additionally, we will be looking at if and how the pond could be
expanded in the future to help provide additional storm water treatment from Pleasant View
Road in the future when that roadway is reconstructed. The image on the next page shows and
how the D & U is being modifled and expanded from 1.28 acres to 1.81 acres to accommodate
additional area and work with the development plans.

6. Utilities
Pleasant View Pointe will be served by existing sanitary sewer and watermain adjacent to the
site. Sanitary sewer will be connected to existing sewer within Peaceful Lane with the addition
of a new manhole and new trunk sewer extending south within the proposed cul-de-sac to
service proposed lots 4-5, block 1 and lots 1-13, block 2. Proposed lots 1-3, block 1 will have
right of way frontage along Pleasant View Lane and will make use existing sewer services
previously installed. Proposed lot 6, block 1 will make use of the existing sewer service
provided to the lot from Nez Perce Drive. Trunk watermain will be installed, extending an
existing watermain within Nez Perce Drive west to the proposed cul-de-sac connecting to the
existing watermain within Peaceful Lane. Proposed lots, 4-5, block 1 and lots 1-13, block 2 will
connect to new watermain services on a new trunk watermain. Proposed lots 1-3, block 1 will
use the existing services provided from Pleasant View Lane watermain and lot 6, block 1 will
use the existing water service provided from Nez Perce Drive.
There are existing sanitary sewer and watermain and services along the west property boundary
in Redmen Lane ROW. These utilities will not be connected to and will be abandoned for those
sections not currently servicing an existing resident. Sanitary sewer and water service will
remain for those utilities currently providing service to the existing homes along Peaceful Lane.

7. Builder
As mentioned above we are working with Charles Cudd Co. on this neighborhood. Below are
some examples of the types homes that could be built in this neighborhood.
8. Outlots
In the concept plan there were two Outlots, however, the proposed plan only has one, Outlot A.
As described above, this outlot is for the connection between Pleasant View Pointe and
31
Pleasant View Pointe – Preliminary Plat
December 20, 2024
Page 11
11
Troendle for a trail, utility connections, driveways and possible a roadway if ever needed in the
future.
The second Outlot which was shown in the concept plan but is not included in the Preliminary
Plat was to provide a secondary connection to the water tower. Staff reviewed the need for this
connection after concept review and asked us not to include it in the preliminary plat. This was
also an item that a number of the Lake Lucy road residents had objected to at the neighborhood
meeting.
G. Neighborhood Meeting
As mentioned, several times in this narrative, on July 31 we held a neighborhood meeting on the
Pleasant View Pointe development plans. Approximately 30 people came to the meeting. We gave
a presentation and answered a number of questions. I summarized many of the questions in the
narrative we provided for the concept review. Attached is an exhibit with the same summary
provided with the concept review.
H. Closing
We are looking forward to discussing our development plans with you. Please let us know if there is
any additional information you would like to help inform your review.

Exhibit A – Developer Comment Summary from the July 31, 2024 Neighborhood Meeting
1. Traffic Concerns - Concerns about traffic in general and construction traffic are combined.
There were slightly differing concerns about traffic during construction and traffic overall.
a. Residents on Peaceful Lane – NOTE: There are only two residences on Peaceful
Lane. The owners of one of the residences were in attendance and were concerned
about the Nez Perce connection to Peaceful Lane and the traffic that they would
now be experiencing. They would prefer no connection to Peaceful Lane. The
Peaceful Lane resident liked the idea from the Pleasant View resident(s) that there
should be a connection to Powers or that the development use Nez Perce going
south without a connection to Peaceful Lane. Concerned if a connection was made
to Peaceful that the roadway could not handle the wear and tear. Also, concerned
that the intersection of Peaceful and Pleasant view is dangerous and cannot handle
the additional traffic safely.
b. Residents on Pleasant View – There were not a lot of residents in attendance from
Pleasant View. Those there did not think there should be any connection to Pleasant
View but that the development should connect directly to Powers instead. There
was some mention of a promise made by the City Council to not connect to
Pleasant View and of actions made by Frank Beddor to make a connection to
Pleasant View more difficult. (NOTE: Pleasant View is considered a minor collector
in the City/County roadway system)
c. Residents on Nez Perce and Troendle Circle – In general concern about cut
through traffic. Residents do not see the beneflt or need to connect Nez Perce. They
think that all would be better off without this connection. Less traffic potential for
those on Nez Perce and for those on Pleasant View and Peaceful Lane. They said
they would support the project if Nez Perce was turned into a cul-de-
sac/hammerhead with no through connection to Nez Perce.
d. Residents on Lake Lucy Rd – In general residents on Lake Lucy Road have
concerns about the amount and speed of traffic on their roadway. Concerns about
safety and that connecting the development to Nez Perce will create more traffic
and a potential cut through for traffic after construction and create a route for
construction traffic during construction.
2. Stormwater Drainage into Lot 13 – The owner of the home adjacent to Lot 13 said they
currently receive a lot of water from the Beddor property (and also City water tower
property). There was a concern that this could get worse with development. Mark Rausch,
the developers engineer, let the homeowner know that the watershed area fiowing into her
property would actually be reduced and while there would still be some water it will be less
33
Pleasant View Pointe – Preliminary Plat
December 20, 2024
Page 13
13
water after development than prior to development. In general, we cannot control water
coming from areas not on our property.
3. Residents adjacent to Lot 11 – The residents of the two homes on Troendle Circle behind
Lot 11 were concerned about how close the homes would be to their homes. They asked if
there was any way that we could adjust to lots to make the distance larger. Our response
was that it may not be possible we are meeting the standards of the zoning district but that
we would look at additional plantings to help screen the lots from each other.
4. Water Tower Access Road – The residents along Lake Lucy Rd adjacent to, across from and
near this potential access strenuously object to having this become a water tower access.
They believe they were told by the City that this would never be needed or used as an
access. Some residents had called and talked to the City Engineer and were told that no
plans were being considered. We let residents know that this was coming from Charlie the
Public Works Director and that he would be the one to contact. There is a 50’ wide outlot in
this location. Another resident said he thought the adjacent neighbor was offered to buy
the property from the City at one point.
5. Existing Tree Lines – Owners of homes adjacent to the Beddor property implored us to save
the trees on the Beddor property adjacent to their properties. We said that it was generally
in our mutual interest to do so. We said will try to save as many of the trees along the
property lines as possible.
6. Storm Water
a. Concern about Christmas Lake – Do not want any water quality impacts to the lake
due to this development. We stated that we will be required to meet stormwater
management requirements of the City and MCWD for rate, quality and volume
control.
7. City Sanitary Sewer & Water
a. Concerns about Water Pressure – neighbor(s) stated that they have very low water
pressure (40 psi) and wanted to know how this could impact them.
b. General questions about how we would connect to City sewer and water.
8. General Questions
a. How will the lots along Pleasant View connect to the roadway system. We said that
they would directly access Pleasant View much like the neighboring properties.
b. Concern about lot sizes relative to neighborhood - We said they are the same if not
larger than the neighboring lots.
c. Is the existing home being torn down? – We indicated that the existing home would
be torn down.
34
Pleasant View Pointe – Preliminary Plat
December 20, 2024
Page 14
14
d. Would there be model homes or spec homes? – We said yes that there would likely
be a spec home/model home.
e. Questions about allowable work hours. We did not know exactly but said Monday –
Saturday with Saturday we thought 7:00 a.m. – 7:00 p.m. and no work on Sunday.
f. Question about how long the development buildout would take. We mentioned we
thought it would take about 3 years.
9. Types & Price of Homes - We said in general we saw the homes on the 15,000 sf lots being
1 ½ story to 2 story homes starting in the 1.3 million range. The large lots would be custom
lots with a wider range of overall value above that.
10. Lot Layout/Density
a. Size of Lots - Residents asked why the lots south of Nez Perce are smaller than the
6 proposed north of Nez Perce – explanation was provided that all lots meet current
zoning and the design was created to match the existing lot sizes in each area.
b. Larger or Fewer Lots/No Development – In general if the residents could waive a
magic wand, they would have not development or would have fewer larger lots. We
let the residents know that we are meeting/exceeding the standards of the zoning
district and that we are on the very low end of what could be allowed based on the
Comprehensive Plan guiding which could allow up to 4 units/ ac.

Ordinance. If it meets these standards, the city must approve the preliminary plat. This is a
quasi-judicial decision.
The city’s discretion in approving or denying a variance is limited to whether the proposed
project meets the standards in the zoning ordinance for a variance. The city has a moderate
level of discretion with a variance because the applicant is seeking a deviation from established
standards. This is a quasi-judicial decision.
The city’s discretion in approving or denying a wetland alteration permit is limited to whether
the proposal meets the standards outlined in the Zoning Ordinance. If it meets these
standards, the city must approve the wetland alteration permit. This is a quasi-judicial decision.
COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT
Notice of this public hearing has been mailed to all property owners within 500 feet.
The applicant held a neighborhood meeting on July 31st, 2024. This neighborhood meeting was
conducted entirely by the Applicant to gather feedback from adjacent property owners prior to
the City Council workshop on October 14th, 2024 and the Planning Commission meeting on
March 4th, 2025.
APPLICABLE REGULATIONS
Chapter 18, Subdivision
Chapter 18, Section 18-22 Variances
Chapter 20, Article XXII, RSF Single-Family Residential District
PROPOSAL/SUMMARY
The Applicant is proposing the subdivision of 13.65 acres of properties, zoned Single-Family
Residential and guided for Low-Density Residential into nineteen lots and one outlot.
HISTORY
The properties are divided into three prior plats, Vineland, Vineland Forest, and Troendle
Addition.
First is the historical Vineland plat in 1887, due to the age of this plat the roads do no match
currently existing, nor do the street names. The scale of area it once included is unknow due to
the missing measurement units, four of the parcels included in this subdivision and the water
tower parcel next door have not been replated since this plat.
56
Page 3 of 14
The next plat is the Vineland Forest platted in 1990, there is only one parcel in the proposed
new subdivision that is from this plat and since has gone through a lot line adjustment and lot
combination in 1996.
The final plat Troendle was platted in 1991, one parcel in the new proposed subdivision is
included in this previous plat as an outlot. As a condition of the Troendle plat approval the
developer was required to create a temporary cul-de-sac with a sign affixed at the end notifying
residents of the future extension of Nez Perce. Additionally, the developer was required to
place a notice on each lot’s chain of title, that Nez Perce will be ultimately extended as a thru
street to Pleasant View.
These conditions are due to the fact the plat included a dead ending cul-de-sac 1,400 feet long.
The requirements at the time of approval were vague, stating the maximum length of a dead
end shall be determined as a function of the expected development density along the street,
thus resulting in the conditions of approval.
Environmental Protection Districts
• Wetland Protection – There are two wetlands on this property.
• Bluff Protection – There is a bluff on the SW corner of the property.
• Shoreland Management – Lots 1-6, Block 1 are within this district.
• Floodplain Overlay – Not within FEMA Flood Zones 2018.
SUBDIVISION REVIEW
Along with the 19 lots created in this subdivision, the developer is proposing a 50-foot wide
outlot with a 10-foot trail to connect Nez Perce Drive to Peaceful Lane for pedestrians and
emergency vehicles. The trail will not serve as a connection for residential traffic. The outlot is
adequately sized for a road extension of Nez Perce if the city chooses to pursue this extension
in the future. As currently proposed, all lots meet the minimum lot area, lot width and lot depth
requirements of the zoning ordinance.
The submittal indicated a driveway access for Lot 5 being located within Outlot A which is to be
dedicated to the City for purposes of underground utilities and an at grade 10’ wide trail. While
that placement was initially considered by city staff, after further consideration, city staff does
not support this private improvement being placed within the public outlot and the driveway
for Lot 5 will need to be relocated to be outside of the City’s outlot. Staff recommends revising
Lot 5 to be a flag lot with access to Peaceful Lane and the width of Outlot A being reduced to
40’ in width. Lots 4 and 5 shall not share a driveway. Lot 6 shall have a driveway off of Nez
Perce drive.

LANDSCAPING
The developer is proposing to remove the existing trees in areas to be graded and plans to save
the trees around the perimeter of the lots and development as a whole.
The plans for development
include canopy calculations to
establish the number of
replacement trees required to be
planted per city code, currently 96
trees will need to be planted,
these are shown on the
landscaping plan.
The landscaping plan dated 12-19-
2024 adheres to the City’s species
diversity requirements which
states that the landscaping plan
shall consist of no more than 10% of the trees can be from one tree species, no more than 20%
of the trees can be from one genus, and no more than 30% of the trees can be from one family.
VARIANCE REQUEST – MAXIMUM DUL-DE-SAC LENGTH
The proposed dead ending cul-de-sac exceeds the maximum length allowed by city code. The
proposed cul-de-sac is 1,040 feet long, the maximum length allowed by city code is 750 feet.
The city’s zoning code establishes the criteria for granting variances from Chapter 18 which are
based on state statutes. The following criteria must all be met in order to grant a variance.
1. The hardship is not a mere inconvenience;
The hardship the developer is posed with is due to minimal options for street connection.
There is one street with the possibility of connection, Nez Perce, however the City Council
is not in support of connecting the two streets therefore requiring a variance for the dead
ending street.
2. The hardship is caused by the particular physical surroundings, shape or topographical
conditions of the land;
59
Page 6 of 14
The hardship is caused by physical access to this property, the property currently has
minimal street frontage on existing streets, with sizeable acreage, making it difficult to
adhere to city code as a result of the City Council not supporting a road connection to Nez
Perce Drive.
3. The condition or conditions upon which the request is based are unique and not generally
applicable to other property;
The subject property is largely land locked with minimal opportunities for the creation of
through roads that avoid the creation of lengthy cul-de-sacs with the opportunity to
reduce cul-de-sac length not being deemed a viable road connection by the City Council.
4. The granting of a variance will not be substantially detrimental to the public welfare and
is in accord with the purpose and intent of this chapter, the zoning ordinance and
comprehensive plan.
The granting of this variance will not be substantially detrimental to public welfare as a
trail connection will be created as part of the subdivision that will serve as an emergency
access road for public safety vehicles in the event of an emergency or blocked roads that
do not have alternative access due to their cul-de-sac nature.
Based upon prior feedback from the City Council during sketch plan review of this project, the
variance for cul-de-sac length is recommended for approval based on the above criteria and
findings.
PROJECT OVERVIEW
The Applicant is requesting preliminary plat approval to subdivide the property at and around
6535 Peaceful Lane into nineteen lots and one outlot. Construction plans developed by Alliant
Engineering Inc. dated December 19, 2024 were reviewed by staff. The plans show alteration
and filling of the two onsite wetlands which require a Chanhassen wetland alteration permit
and associated joint permit sequencing application to meet requirements of the Wetland
Conservation Act. A sequencing application was submitted with the preliminary plat
application. After review and comment from the City and Technical Evaluation Panel an
updated sequencing application was submitted on January 29, 2025. This application was
reviewed, and additional comments were provided to the applicant. Revised application
materials were provided to the City on February 21st and 24th. This memo reflects all the
wetland alternation permit submittals to date.
GRADING & DRAINAGE
The project site is located south of Christmas Lake and consists of five parcels with one single
family residence located onsite along with a driveway, and outbuildings. The project site is
bounded by Pleasant View Road to the north, Peaceful Lane to the West and single-family
homes on the South and East. In the existing condition the majority of the surface runoff from
60
Page 7 of 14
the site flows into the pond/wetland on the northern portion of the site. This pond/wetland
drains west through an 8 inch culvert into a wetland complex east of Powers Blvd. Runoff from
the wetland/pond ultimately drains to Christmas Lake through a series of wetlands, stormwater
ponds, and stormwater infrastructure. A small portion of the site drains to the east between
existing homes into public storm sewer on Troendle Circle which ultimately drains into the
pond/wetland located onsite. A small portion of the site drains south through properties
located on Lake Lucy Road and ultimately drains to Lake Susan through a wetland complex east
of Powers Blvd.
In the proposed condition the site would be mass graded to facilitate the construction of public
roads, utilities and homes. The proposed drainage patterns remain similar to existing
conditions. The majority of the site will be captured and routed by storm sewer and drainage
swales to the proposed stormwater management feature located where the existing
61
Page 8 of 14
pond/wetland is today. Drainage from the Troendle Addition will be routed to the proposed
basin. Small portions of the site that are not routed to the stormwater basin would sheetflow
west, south, and east similar to that in existing conditions. The proposed conditions are
capturing runoff from portions of Peaceful Lane and Pleasant View Road and routing the
stormwater to the basin via storm sewer. The proposed impervious treatment for the
development is accounting for the maximum impervious for each lot.
The proposed design would alter how stormwater runoff would leave the site to the south
through existing home side yards. The proposed design is attempting to route stormwater
through City owned property, however there does not appear to be a defined drainage channel
on the property that would convey the runoff to the City’s drainage system along Lake Lucy
Road. Additional design, survey and a drainage memo is required to confirm that the proposed
development will not adversely impact downstream properties on the south end of the
development. The applicant shall submit a memo that verifies the proposed design will not
adversely impact the adjacent properties with the final plat application.
EROSION CONTROL
The proposed development will impact one (1) acre of disturbance and will, therefore, be
subject to the General Permit Authorization to Discharge Stormwater Associated with
Construction Activity Under the National Pollution Discharge Elimination/State Disposal System
(NPDES Construction Permit). A Surface Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) was included
in the preliminary plat submittal. The SWPPP is a required submittal element for final plat
review along with the Erosion and Sediment Control Plan (ESCP) in accordance with Section 19-
145 of City Ordinance. No earth disturbing activities may occur until an approved SWPPP is
developed. This SWPPP shall be a standalone document consistent with the NPDES
Construction Permit and shall contain all required elements of the permit. The SWPPP will
need to be updated as the plans are finalized, when the contractor and their sub-contractors
are identified and as other conditions change. An approved SWPPP shall be submitted prior to
recording the final plat. All erosion control shall be installed and inspected prior to initiation of
site grading activities.
WETLANDS
The proposed plans show two (2) wetlands onsite that were delineated by Kjolhaug
Environmental Services on July 3, 2024. The delineation was approved by the City of
Chanhassen in its role as the local governing unit (LGU) that is responsible for administering the
Wetland Conservation Act (WCA). The Technical Evaluation Panel (TEP) made up of
representatives from the city, Watershed District, MN Department of Natural Resources (DNR),
Board of Water and Soil Resources (BWSR), and Carver County Soil and Water Conservation
District (SWCD) are all part of the WCA process in reviewing wetland applications including
types and boundaries. The Wetland types and sizes on site were determined to be:
• Wetland 1 - 0.08 acre wetland meadow depression
62
Page 9 of 14
• Wetland 2 – 0.67 acre wet meadow of which 0.16 areas are historic and governed by WCA
The applicant submitted a no-loss application which asserted that Wetland 2 was manmade
and therefore incidental. Portions of Wetland 2 were determined to be an incidental wetland
by the TEP. It was determined that earth moving activities associated with past projects onsite
modified the area and altered the wetland, however there were areas of historic wetland that
while altered still have wetland characteristics today and are therefore governed by WCA
regulations. As such only 0.16 acres of wetland 2 is governed by WCA regulations. During the
design process the applicant’s Engineer discovered the grading plans associated with the
Troendle Addition that showed that Wetland 1 was likely created with the grading of the
subdivision. As such, the LGU and TEP support the determination that wetland 1 is incidental.
The findings will be memorialized with a formal WCA decision processed concurrently with the
sequencing application.
The proposed plan would fill wetlands 1 and 2. The grading and filling over the wetlands would
facilitate the construction of the homes and stormwater treatment best management practices
(BMPs), associated with the development. WCA regulations and City Ordinance were created to
protect wetlands because of their value as a water resource and their numerous benefits to the
surrounding area (water quality, flood mitigation, wildlife habitat, etc.). The main principles of
the WCA are to avoid wetland impacts, then minimize impacts, and finally replace filled
wetlands where wetland altering activities could not be avoided. The process of filling wetlands
and showing the avoidance and minimization are defined in State Statue 8420 and submitted to
the LGU as a Joint Permit Sequencing Application. The applicant must secure permits for the
wetland impacts from the LGU prior to construction. The applicant submitted a sequencing
application with the preliminary plat application which was reviewed by the TEP. The
sequencing application outlines why the applicant needs the specific design, alternative designs
reviewed, and actions to minimize wetland impacts. The application and review are a rigorous
process. The original application was determined to be deficient with regards to demonstrating
the need for the project and the quality of the avoidance and minimization alternatives
provided. Staff met with the applicant to outline initial comments and requested an updated
and more robust application focusing on the engineering challenges of why the wetlands could
not be designed around.
An updated application was submitted on January 29, 2025. The updated application focused
on the water quality benefit of the proposed revised constructed wetland treatment BMP. The
TEP reviewed the updated application and discussed findings during a coordination meeting on
February 14th. Remaining comments were sent over to the applicant on February 17th. The
applicant revised the submittal and sent over additional review materials on February 21st and
24th that answered most of the TEP’s questions. The City requested a design modification which
would minimize impacts to the historic wetland area which the applicant’s Engineer completed
(scenarios 1 and 2). This area would remain as a shallow pond type wetland that would function
in similar fashion as it does today. The applicant also sent over a draft maintenance proposal
for the native vegetation around the BMP which outlines that an HOA would be created for this
purpose.
63

Scenario 2 Schematic
Scenario 2 Grading
64
Page 11 of 14
The applicant’s preferred design (scenario 2) would fill a small portion of the historic wetland
but the majority would not be graded. Additionally, the constructed wetland proposed would
result in higher pollutant removals than other options reviewed and would be a net benefit to
local water quality. Scenario 2 would likely increase the amount of untreated stormwater
drained through the historic wetland, as such it would still result in a permanent wetland
impact which requires mitigation with the purchase of wetland banking credits. The applicant’s
Joint Permit Application did outline the purchase of wetland banking credits.
Impacting wetlands in Chanhassen requires a wetland alteration permit as defined in Article VI,
Chapter 20 of City Ordinance which must be approved by City Council. The intent of this section
of code was to give the city additional control of wetland impacting activities within the city of
Chanhassen and ensure that the WCA was followed by all activities that could impact wetlands.
Staff and the TEP members have reviewed the updated sequencing application.
TEP comments from the last submittal are still outstanding but will be provided at the March 4th
Planning Commission Meeting. The Water Resources Department does not have
recommendation to Planning Commission and City Council on the wetland sequencing
application decision. Staff will present the facts to the Commissioners at the March 4th Planning
Commission meet so an informed decision can be made.
STORM WATER MANAGEMENT
Article VII, Chapter 19 of City Code describes the required storm water management
development standards. Section 19-141 states that “these development standards shall be
reflected in plans prepared by developers and/or project proposers in the design and layout of
site plans, subdivisions and water management features.” These standards include abstraction
of runoff and water quality treatment resulting in the removal of 90% total suspended solids
(TSS) and 60% total phosphorous (TP). The proposed project is located within the Minnehaha
Creek Watershed District (MCWD) and is therefore subject to the watershed’s rules and
regulations. A Stormwater Management Report was submitted for review to confirm all
applicable stormwater management requirements are being met. This includes rate control,
volume abstraction and water quality requirements among others. All comments on the
proposed design from both the city and MCWD will need to be addressed. The applicant shall
provide final versions of all modeling (HydroCAD and MIDS) and Stormwater Management
Report to address remaining comments and confirm rate, volume and water quality
requirements are met as part of the final plat application. Additionally conditional approval
from the watershed district shall be provided with the final plat application to confirm the
design is meeting all applicable stormwater management requirements.
The applicant is proposing to meet stormwater regulations with the construction of a
constructed wetland type stormwater best management practice (BMP) with incorporated
filtration located on the northwest corner of the site where the existing pond/wetland is
located. An approved wetland alteration permit and associated WCA sequencing application is
required to construct the stormwater management system shown in the construction plans.
65
Page 12 of 14
The BMP is located within an existing drainage and utility easement (D&U) that serves to
protect the existing pond/wetland located in the area. The existing easement is larger than the
current area of the pond/wetland. There are limited opportunities for stormwater management
in this part of Chanhassen. The city intends to utilize the existing D&U for treatment associated
with the future Pleasant View Road reconstruction project which is scheduled for 2026-2027
construction. If the design is approved and the applicant secures the required wetland permits
the easement would be vacated by the city and then reconfigured. In order to approve the use
of the existing D&U for the subdivision drainage the applicant must show that the proposed
design will be oversized to accommodate the existing and future stormwater management
needs of the city. The applicant shall complete an analysis of the area that outlines the existing
and future stormwater management needs of the city in this area and shows that the proposed
basin is sized appropriately. The analysis shall be submitted with the final plat application.
There appears to be approximately 1 acre of the development which routes untreated
stormwater to the south that ultimately drains to a wetland complex north of Carver Beach
Road. There is a small city owned wet pond that would provide some level of treatment before
the stormwater discharges to the downstream wetland. Standard engineering practice is to
route and treat a sites runoff to the maximum extent practicable. There appears to be
opportunities to optimize the design or add/enhance downstream BMPs to provide treatment
so that the water leaving the site would achieve city water quality standards. As such the
applicant shall work with staff to optimize the stormwater design. Additional water quality
modeling and potentially a private BMP installation may be required.
The proposed BMP systems shown in the preliminary plat are to be publicly owned and
maintained, however there may be the need for private stormwater infrastructure with the
final plans. A maintenance plan for any proposed BMPs will be required and should include the
maintenance schedule, responsible party, and should include information on how the system
will be cleaned out as necessary. The applicant shall submit a stormwater operations and
maintenance plan as part of the final plat submittal.
RECOMMENDATIONS
Staff supports the Planning Commission recommending approval of the preliminary plat,
variance, and wetland sequencing applications subject to the conditions of approval and adopt
the attached Findings of Fact and Decision.

CITY OF CHANHASSEN
CARVER AND HENNEPIN COUNTIES, MINNESOTA
FINDINGS OF FACT
AND RECOMMENDATION
IN RE:Application of Rachel Development for a Nineteen Lot Subdivision
On March 4, 2025, the Chanhassen Planning Commission met at its regularly scheduled meeting
to consider the application to subdivide 13.65 acres into nineteen single-family lots and one outlot.
The Planning Commission conducted a public hearing on the proposed development which was
preceded by published and mailed notice. The Planning Commission heard testimony from all
interested persons wishing to speak and made the following Findings of Fact on the remaining
application.
FINDINGS OF FACT
1. On December 20, 2024, the City received a land use application for the property legally
described in attachment Exhibit A for the following:
A. A variance to the maximum dead ending cul-de-sac length.
B. A preliminary plat application for a 19-lot subdivision for residential single-family.
2. The property is currently zoned Single-Family Residential - RSF.
3. The property is guided by the Land Use Plan for Low Density Residential.
PRELIMINARY PLAT FINDINGS
4. The Subdivision Ordinance directs the Planning Commission to consider seven possible
adverse effects of the proposed subdivision. The seven effects and our findings regarding
them are:
a. The proposed subdivision is consistent with the zoning ordinance;
Finding: The subdivision meets all the requirements of the RSF, Residential Single-
Family District and the zoning ordinance if the conditions of approval are met.
b. The proposed subdivision is consistent with all applicable city, county and regional plans
including but not limited to the city's comprehensive plan;
Finding: The proposed subdivision is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and
subdivision ordinance if the conditions of approval are met.
c. The physical characteristics of the site, including but not limited to topography, soils,
vegetation, susceptibility to erosion and siltation, susceptibility to flooding, and stormwater
drainage are suitable for the proposed development;
69
Finding: The proposed site is suitable for development subject to the conditions specified
in this report.
d. The proposed subdivision makes adequate provision for water supply, storm drainage,
sewage disposal, streets, erosion control and all other improvements required by this
chapter;
Finding: The proposed subdivision will provide adequate urban infrastructure subject to
the conditions specified in this report.
e. The proposed subdivision will not cause environmental damage;
Finding: The proposed subdivision will not cause significant environmental damage
subject to the conditions of approval. The proposed subdivision contains adequate open
areas to accommodate house pads.
f. The proposed subdivision will not conflict with easements of record; and
Finding: The proposed subdivision will not conflict with existing easements, but rather
will expand and provide all necessary easements.
g. The proposed subdivision is not premature. A subdivision is premature if any of the
following exists:
1) Lack of adequate stormwater drainage.
2) Lack of adequate roads.
3) Lack of adequate sanitary sewer systems.
4) Lack of adequate off-site public improvements or support systems.
Finding: The proposed subdivision will have access to public utilities and streets if the
specified conditions of approval are met.
VARIANCE FINDINGS
5. The Variances Division in Chapter 18 directs the Planning Commission to consider four
general conditions for granting:
a. The hardship is not a mere inconvenience;
The hardship the developer is posed with is due to minimal options for street connection.
There is one street with the possibility of connection, Nez Perce, however the City
Council is not in support of connecting the two streets therefore requiring a variance for
the dead ending street.
b. The hardship is caused by the particular physical surroundings, shape or topographical
conditions of the land;
The hardship is caused by physical access to this property, the property currently has
70
minimal street frontage on existing streets, with sizeable acreage, making it difficult to
adhere to city code as a result of the City Council not supporting a road connection to
Nez Perce Drive.
c. The condition or conditions upon which the request is based are unique and not generally
applicable to other property;
The subject property is largely land locked with minimal opportunities for the creation of
through roads that avoid the creation of lengthy cul-de-sacs with the opportunity to
reduce cul-de-sac length not being deemed a viable road connection by the City Council.
d. The granting of a variance will not be substantially detrimental to the public welfare and
is in accord with the purpose and intent of this chapter, the zoning ordinance and
comprehensive plan.
The granting of this variance will not be substantially detrimental to public welfare as a
trail connection will be created as part of the subdivision that will serve as an emergency
access road for public safety vehicles in the event of an emergency or blocked roads that
do not have alternative access due to their cul-de-sac nature.
5.The planning report Planning Case 2025-02, dated February 25, 2025, prepared by
Rachel Arsenault, et al, is incorporated herein.
RECOMMENDATION & DECISION
The Planning Commission approves the requested variance and recommends that the City
Council approve the Preliminary Plat.
ADOPTED by the Chanhassen Planning Commission this 4
th day of March 2025.

Subject: Nez Perce Drive Extension and Beddor Property Development
My name is Bryce Fier, and I live at 1040 Lake Lucy Road.
It is with great disappointment that the city of Chanhassen is strongly considering to not
extend Nez Perce Drive to Peaceful Lane. Nez Perce was suppose to be extended 30+ years
ago when Troendle Circle was developed. My neighbors on Lake Lucy Road were very vocal
about our concerns about the traffic fiow on our street from neighborhoods around us. We
were told repeatedly that Nez Perce would be extended to Peaceful Lane so Troendle Circle
owners could exit their development to Peaceful Lane. We've been waiting for 30+ years for
this to happen.
74
We have complained as a Lake Lucy neighborhood about the traffic fiow (often speeding up
and down our street at excessive speeds). Most of the speeding traffic comes from
Troendle, Vineland and Nez Perce. We have sought action from the Traffic Safety
committee, the engineering department and from law enforcement. We are still waiting for
a response to our safety concerns. Many of the homes on our street have young children
living in them. Some of us have young grandchildren visiting often. Now apparently, the
city counsel is no longer supporting the extension of Nez Perce to Peaceful Lane. I don't
understand after waiting for 30 years, the promise made by the City Counsel and Frank
Beddor is no longer the plan. I can only hope that you reconsider the direction you are
headed in approving this development without extending Nez Perce.
As an alternative, has the counsel ever considered ending Nez Perce at 6481 or 6491 Nez
Perce and sending all of Troendle circle traffic and the Beddor Property development to
Peaceful Lane to exit the neighborhood. While this does not extend Nez Perce it would take
the traffic from 11-12 homes off our street.
I hope you all give consideration to my suggestion to making our street safer for all who live
on it.
Respectfully, Bryce Fier, 1040 Lake Lucy Road, Chanhassen Mn

Dear Eric,
We are Julie and Pete Kaiser, homeowners at 6400 Peaceful Lane. Unfortunately we are unable to attend
the Planning Commission Meeting on March 4. We are very much interested and have concerns
regarding the Pleasant View Pointe Project. We see there will be discussions of a Wetland Alteration
Permit and Variance to the cul-de-sac length for Pleasant View Point. Not having a great understanding of
how the decisions are made, are there any resources that you may share regarding these requests and
their impacts? Obviously there are rules or codes that are being requested to be adjusted.
I am attaching a letter we sent to the Mayor and City Council Members back in October 2024 for the
Planning Commission's review. We continue to have the same concerns. We also now have concerns for
the Wetland Alteration Permit and the Variance to the cul-de-sac length as we want to understand both
requests and their impacts. We would also like to reiterate the concern we have for extending Peaceful
Lane and the increase of traffic and impact it will have on the original two remaining houses on the Lane.
If you would please conflrm receipt of this email, we would appreciate it.
Thank you for your time and consideration to our concerns.

10.9.24
Dear Mayor and City Council Members,
We are writing to you today to express our concern over the development plan for the Beddor properties
at 6535 Peaceful Lane and 1015 Pleasant View Road. Although we realize change is inevitable, we were
quite surprised to receive the initial concept plan from Rachel Development and the number of proposed
homes in the plan. The turnout at the neighborhood meeting was well attended by neighbors on all sides
of the proposed land and several concerns were raised. Being one of the two homes on Peaceful Lane,
the third slated for demolition according to the plan, we felt it important to share our concerns for your
consideration while reviewing and ultimately making the decision on this property development.
1. First and foremost, we are concerned with the safety of all impacted by this development. People
already drive too fast in this area and Pleasant View has seen a considerable rise in traffic. The
corner of Pleasant View and Peaceful used to be patrolled regularly 15-20 years ago. We no longer
see that type of patrolling. This intersection is a blind spot as it is at the top of the hill and those
traveling from both directions cannot see what is at the area just west of the intersection. Many
residents walk, bike, jog this road and it continues to become more treacherous with added traffic
and speeds. The SE corner of Powers and Pleasant View has a fence that edges the sidewalk. This
fence has been knocked down every winter when vehicles travel too fast and lose control.
Pleasant View has many blind driveways and bus stops along the way and the safety of children
and those entering and exiting driveways is being impacted, especially anytime additional
development is introduced. The road has become a cut through which has also signiflcantly
increased traffic.
2. We are concerned with the number of homes being proposed, speciflcally requiring access from
Peaceful Lane. We were told by Rachel Development that they aren’t requesting any variances or
changes to the city’s established codes. Are there any requests for changes required for the
established 6535 Peaceful Lane property? If so, what are these? How would the proposal change
if 6535 was not part of the proposed development?
When considering the design, why can’t the proposed area refiect the landscape and property size
of the houses surrounding the pond rather than the Nez Perce culdesac, especially considering
the safety and access concerns?
3. We are concerned for Peaceful Lane being connected to Nez Perce. It creates an unnecessary
“short cut” for neighborhoods which will increase unnecessary traffic and likely speed concerns
for both neighborhoods.
4. We are concerned for the beauty of the green landscape and the disruption of the animals.
77
5. We are concerned for the impact of our homes on Peaceful Ln with the possible number of cars
passing through, especially at night with headlights.
6. We are concerned for the construction traffic and overall impact of the condition of Peaceful Lane
throughout this process. Peaceful Lane receives little maintenance yet it’s a road where heavy
duty trucks, trailers, and machinery park, load and unload to do work on Powers Blvd., Pleasant
View, and Pleasant View properties. We want to be assured that the repair and rehabilitation of
this road will fall on the construction/development side and not on the homeowners.
7. We are concerned with the impact of the wooded cut through path that connects the Powers
sidewalk and Peaceful Lane. Many flnd this a hidden pathway that takes you away to “up north” if
only for less than a block.
While you review the development, please take into consideration the following:
• Do not allow the connection of Peaceful Ln and Nez Perce.
• Increase the required size of the proposed size lots 7-19 to match the area by the pond and
surrounding area. Reducing the number of homes will ultimately reduce traffic and safety
concerns.
Consider why the previous owner of the land, did not move forward with any development
of this land.
Consider why the current owner of the land did not want to build out this property while
living in the area.
• Consider the rich history of Chanhassen and how it received #1 designation for small living by
Money Magazine and why. Continue to be able to tote that Chanhassen is the Best Place to Live.
• Review the plans from a “put yourselves in our shoes” perspective. What are the determining
factors and whys for making the decisions?
We encourage you to view and walk the area to see what it currently holds and how adding 16 (19 total)
homes in a small area is going to signiflcantly change the landscape and feel of what was once
considered a country town and road. Thank you for your time and allowing us to express our concerns.
Sincerely,
Pete and Julie Kaiser

To: <council@chanhassenmn.gov>
Cc: <eryan@chanhassenmn.gov>
Good Afternoon Council Members,
I wish to express my support for the Charles Cudd Development that is being proposed to
you in the near future called Pleasant View Pointe. I understand you have a work session to
discuss it on Monday. I am part of a large neighborhood group on Troendle Circle, Nez
Perce and Lake Lucy that have two items that we strongly oppose related to this
development:
1. We strongly oppose the plan option that would connect Nez Perce with Peaceful
Lane. This would quickly become a cut through for those looking to avoid Powers to
get to Pleasant View. Nez Perce (north of Lake Lucy) is a road that has a number of
blind spots that create safety hazards for our neighbors that have young children
and dogs. Even going 25 miles an hour on the street is too fast given all the
topographic change and turns that create the blind areas.
2. We also oppose the relocation of the water tower access between 1060 and 1080
Lake Lucy Road. Currently, there is a City-owned outlot that is 50 feet wide in length
that has been reserved for potential relocation of the water tower access in the
future. We understand the developer is being asked by the city to provide an
easement that would make the connection possible in the future. Putting an access
road between two houses is a bad idea. There are children and dogs that surround
the homes in that area that would make it unsafe for them if this was built.
I appreciate your consideration in reviewing this request. We love our neighborhood and
believe these two items could drastically change the character of the neighborhood making
it less safe for residents, their young children and their pets.
Sincerely,
Eric Anderson

Commission Members and City Staff:
I am writing to voice my support for the variance (to NOT connect Nez Perce to Peaceful
Lane) proposed by Rachel Development LLC in regards to their proposed 19 lot single-
family development. I understand that this will be taken up by the Chanhassen Planning
Commission on March 4, 2025.
This connection would degrade the neighborhood traffic patterns that currently exist and
are working fine for the residents of our neighborhood. Making the proposed connection
would increase traffic, decrease safety, and degrade our quality of life. In regard to street or
connection lengths, many other neighborhoods have faced the same issue, voiced their
concerns, and been granted a similar (if not exactly the same) variance by the City. I only
ask, and I think I echo the position of a majority of my neighborhood, that the same
consideration and precedent be extended to the Chanhassen citizens in our neighborhood.
Some residents have proffered the position that the connection would reduce traffic on
Nez Perce and thereby lower traffic speeds. In my professional opinion, this is a logical
fallacy and simply not true. Lower traffic volumes do not equate to lower speeds;
particularly in a residential setting.
I thank you for your time and consideration. Please include our comments as part of the
packet presented to the Commission.

Subject: Proposed Cudd Development - Pleasant View Pointe
Wanted to express my concern regarding one of the two proposed development plans for
Pleasant View Point (which I understand you are discussing next Monday). I reside at 6491
Nez Perce Drive and actually purchased the last home developed by the Bedor family on
the Bedor property. My concern is the concept plan that connects Nez Perce Drive to
Peaceful Lane. Nez Perce Drive to the immediate south and north of Lake Lucy Road was
not designed for high traffic volumes which are certain to result if residents in the area and
up to Kerber and beyond know that they can access Pleasant View to travel south without
accessing Powers and for residents who are traveling north to Excelsior, accessing Powers
at Pleasant View Road.
Nez Perce Drive, to the south of Lake Lucy Road is quite narrow and has considerable
pedestrian traffic without sidewalks - already a route that sees meaningful southbound
traffic to downtown Chanhassen. Nez Perce Drive to the north of Lake Lucy Road has
significant elevation changes leading to poor visibility and also includes a 90 degree left
turn at the bottom of a hill in a neighborhood that has attracted young families with small
children since we moved here 25 years ago.
I hope you will consider alternatives that do not include this road connection for everyday
traffic, as I believe it will create a significant safety hazard for families in the immediate
neighborhood. I think there are other pragmatic approaches to allow for emergency vehicle
access (if that is the primary city concern) to both the existing and proposed new culdesac.
Thank you so much for considering these concerns as you move through your process with
Cudd.

Thomas Donnelly

Subject: Planning commission meeting tomorrow night
To my fellow Lake Lucy Road neighbors and Mayor Ryan.
I assume that all of you got the notice in the mail last week of the planning commission
hearing about the development behind those of us who live on the even side of the street. I
remain steadfast that the Nez Perce extension needs to go through to Pleasant View, via
Peaceful Lane, to help alleviate the traffic flow on our street, and make our street safer. It
is time for the city to deliver on promises made 30+ years ago.
Unfortunately, Mother Nature is coming and I will no longer be able to voice my position. A
Mayo Clinic appointment on Wednesday morning is forcing us to drive to Rochester
Tuesday to avoid the bad weather coming.
Shelly and I built our home in 1991 at 1040 Lake Lucy Road. Since 1991, there have been
discussions about the Nez Perce extension. When Troendle was built we were told to be
patient with our concerns about traffic flow because the Nez Perce extension would go
through.
The Nez Perce extension was first discussed by the city council on 9-11-89 when the
Vineland Forest development concept plan was brought forth. There was significant
discussion about the roadways to connect the Vineland development and the western
undeveloped property (Troendle and Rachel Development being considered now).
On 8-12-91 the Troendle plat was approved by the city council. The approved plat included
the extension of Nez Perce to Peaceful Lane.
On 5-24-93, the city council voted to condemn a portion of the property and complete the
extension of Nez Perce, as was approved in the 9-11-89 concept plan.
The temporary end of Nez Perce has had a barricade with a sign indicating the road would
be extended in the future. This sign has been in place since at least summer of 1995. The
barricade and signage was paid for by the Troendle Developer. The city wanted all future
84
residents of the area (especially future residents of the Troendle development) to know
what the city of Chanhassen intent was for Nez Perce extension to Peaceful Lane. It is my
understanding that the approval of the Troendle Addition included the Nez Perce extension
to Peaceful Lane.
In August 1995, Frank Beddor agreed to a proposal to resolve the condemnation process
and allow for the right of way to complete the Nez Perce extension, but not before August
of 1998. It is note worthy that Carver County District court ruled in favor of the city about
this road extension, and Beddor agreed to the proposed resolution, it was sitting before a
Minnesota State Appeals Court.
27 years later after Beddor settled and gave the city the right of way to complete the
extension we are still waiting for a road that has been in development plans for 36 years.

Dear Chanhassen City Council and Mayor Ryan,
I am writing to you today in regard to the Nez Perce extension to Powers Blvd. I live at 1061
Lake Lucy Rd. I have only been living on Lake Lucy Rd for 9 years, but enough to have
witnessed the exorbitant amount of speeding traffic down Lake Lucy Rd. It is frustrating to
say the least. A cut through to Powers via Peaceful Lane, which has been in the plans for
30+ years, would significantly relieve the speeding cars, multiple garbage trucks, and
construction vehicles traveling down Lake Lucy to get to multiple other neighborhoods
every day. As my children are older now, there are still several families with younger
children, and plenty with pets (including us) along Lake Lucy who would greatly benefit
from less traffic. Please consider extending Nez Perce to finally give Lake Lucy residents a
break!
Thank you for your consideration,
Amanda Durrant

PUBLIC HEARINGS:
1. Consider an Ordinance Rezoning Property from Right-of-Way to R-8 Mixed Medium
Density Residential District and Request for Preliminary Plat and Site Plan Approval for a
60 Unit Townhome Development (Planning Case #2025-01)
Eric Maass, Community Development Director, introduced Mackenze Grunig who is the new
Project Engineer. Mr. Maass introduced the project with a rendered site plan of the initial
proposal, which includes 60 attached townhomes. Mr. Maass said that the city requests
applicants to hold neighborhood meetings, which was done with this project. At the meeting,
attendees were asked to write down feedback on small pieces of paper. Mr. Maass presented
slides to review what residents were hoping to learn about during the neighborhood meeting.
After the neighborhood meeting, the residents were able to share what they were still nervous
about in regards to the project and what they were happy to learn.
Mr. Maass said that the property is currently designed by the city’s comprehensive plan for
Medium Density Residential development. He explained that municipalities are required to
update their Comprehensive Plan every ten years based on different factors involving growth
forecasts provided by the Metropolitan Council. The Comprehensive Plan is reviewed by the
Planning Commission, adopted by the City Council, and approved by the Metropolitan Council.
The current Comprehensive Plan in effect is the 2040 Comprehensive Plan. He stated that both
the 2030 and 2040 Comprehensive Plans gave the site a mixed land use designation of office or
residential medium density of four to eight units per acre. Mr. Maass said that the plan did not
have a zoning designation, since it was MnDOT right-of-way for transportation projects before
MnDOT deemed it as excess and put it up for public auction.
Mr. Maass stated they received questions about areas where attached townhomes were backing
up to single-family detached homes. Mr. Maass provided examples of similar layouts in
Chanhassen, including Mission Homes Townhomes, Powers Place Townhomes, Lake Susan
Townhomes, and Prairie Creek Townhomes. Mr. Maass reviewed public feedback about the
development, including concerns about the shared boundary with the Pioneer Pass neighborhood
to the north. Mr. Maass said that the plans were updated to provide more buffering through the
new street becoming a private street which reduced the right of way requirement from 60 feet to
40 feet. He stated that there is now a proposed 80 to 105 feet distance between the detached rear
of the single-family homes and the rear of the townhomes.
Mr. Maass reviewed the two different product types proposed and said that the applicant needs to
provide at least 20 percent of accent material to meet the required threshold outlined in city code.
Additionally, Mr. Maass said that there needs to be more variety for architectural differences. He
said that if the area is deemed to be critical bat habitat that any tree removal would need to take
place prior to April 14, unless the site was reviewed by a qualified inspector and the area not
deemed suitable bat habitat. Timelines regarding bat habitat are established by the United States
Fish and Wildlife. Mr. Maass showed the original landscaping proposal. He said an additional 84
trees would need to be planted to offset the tree removals. The landscaping plan proposed 217
98
Planning Commission Minutes – February 18, 2025

trees. There would need to be plant diversity to meet the city’s plant diversity requirements. Mr.
Maass said that this information was added to the plan.
Mackenze Grunig, Project Engineer reviewed the proposed street layout, public and private
utility plans, as well as proposed location of parking spaces provided in the development.
Joe Seidl, Water Resource Engineer, said that the wetland delineation was completed in May
2024. The technical evaluation panel and the City of Chanhassen reviewed and approved the
delineation. He stated that two small wetlands were determined to be incidental and created from
other roadway projects. Since the wetlands were created incidentally, they can be graded and
filled without penalty. Mr. Seidl said that there was one watercourse located in the project. He
stated that permitting requirements for the water course required the city, Watershed District, and
possibly the Army Corps of Engineers. He reviewed the existing conditions, such as the large hill
in the middle of the site. He said that the water runoff on the east side of the site would go down
to Bluff Creek, areas to the northwest would drain to the city-owned and maintained wet pond,
and drainage to the southwest would drain to the existing drainage ditch system. Mr. Seidl said
that there would be more volume created by the storm sewers, which could be mitigated through
stormwater best management practices.
Mr. Seidl proposed two options for the plan, including a stormwater wet pond reuse system that
would capture stormwater and be used to irrigate the site. Mr. Seidl said that the applicant would
need to complete additional permitting to ensure they meet regulations. He stated there was a
stormwater wet pond located on the northeast of the site to meet water quality and rate control.
He said that there would be buffers for the watercourse to meet additional rules and regulations.
Mr. Seidl noted that the applicant proposed to outlet the storm sewer down the water course. The
water course is highly eroded, so there were concerns that it would be exasperated if it were to
take more water. Mr. Seidl said that the city will work with the Watershed and the applicant on
the design. He stated an additional concern was at the southwest corner of the site, where there
might be a need for some grading or water best management practices to ensure that there will
not be excess water. He stated that the stormwater best management practices would be private
and need to be maintained by the developer and the Homeowners Association. Mr. Seidl stated
that there were standard engineering conditions to implement to address concerns.
Mr. Seidl reviewed a concern discussed at the open house about drainage and flooding issues
associated with the city-owned wet pond and the adjacent ditch. He reviewed previous aerial
photos, which showed water saturation and that there could be potential for subsurface water
interactions; the area is encompassed by a drainage and utility easement. The wet pond is on a
city-owned outlot and the drainage and utility easement exists in portions of the backyard of the
development to the north. He stated that when a development goes through and if there is an area
that is known to be wet, the city would include a drainage and utility easement. He commented
that a new development could not dump a lot of water there to make the situation worse. Mr.
Seidl reviewed hydraulic and hydrological modeling to understand the drainage and reviewed
stormwater events. He had a conversation with the developer’s engineer to highlight the concern
and mitigate the problem in the final design to make sure the situation would not worsen.
Chairman Noyes invited the developer forward to answer questions.

John Anderson, Project Manager for Brandl Anderson, stated that Brandl Anderson purchased
the site from MnDOT at public auction. He reviewed the original anticipated plan. He
commented that they held a public meeting a few weeks ago and afterward adjusted the plan set
to address neighborhood concerns. The adjustments included moving from a public street layout
to a private street layout to push the units adjacent to the neighborhood further south for a larger
setback and to plant trees for a buffer along the property line. He stated that the water would not
touch neighbors’ property, but instead go into the swale which would drain the water west to the
pond. He said that they would increase the pond size, which would increase the overall level and
help things from a drainage standpoint. Their engineers were trying to figure out how to best
address stormwater issues at the watercourse. The existing drainage channel might need
upgrades, which would be addressed in the final plan. He stated that the site meets all the
required zoning requirements. He commented that the existing power line on the site would be
relocated to the very south property line. He said that they received comments from the
watershed district. He commented that they wanted to start work on grading, streets, and utilities
in the spring, and start house construction in the late summer.
Commissioner Schwartz asked about the Homeowners Association’s responsibilities of
maintaining the stormwater ponds. Mr. Anderson said that there was a maintenance agreement
that would require the Homeowners Association to maintain the pond. He said this typically
includes requirements that the ponding does not fill up with sediment and that appropriate
vegetation is planted. The Homeowners Association would also be responsible for maintaining
the private streets.
Commissioner Schwartz asked about marketing terms they planned to use to describe the
wetland and the pond. Mr. Anderson answered that the two wetlands on site will not exist when
the project is complete since they were deemed incidental. He said that they would describe the
stormwater pond as a best management practice.
Chairman Noyes asked for a description of the swale. He asked if it presented an elevation
change and if it provided an optical or physical buffering between the development to the north
and the proposed development. Mr. Anderson answered that the swale would be grass or sodded
and could be mowed. He said the elevation change would be less than two feet from the normal
landscape to the swale. He stated it would not create a buffer and it would be approximately
twenty feet from the property line. He said that the trees would be the buffer.
Commissioner Jobe questioned the design and if they accounted for a 50-year flood or 100-year
flood with water run-offs. Mr. Anderson said that he did not know the answer and asked Mr.
Seidl.
Mr. Seidl answered that the standard regulations when designing stormwater best management
practice would be two-year, ten-year, and 100-year storm events. He said that there were
accepted models that differed based on your location and how much water they conveyed. He
provided an example of a 100-year event in Chanhassen, which would be 7.5 inches of
stormwater in 24 hours, and how the stormwater runs over that period. He explained that the
calculations are standard wastewater engineering and they utilize data from Atlas 14. He said
100
Planning Commission Minutes – February 18, 2025
5
that the stormwater system would be designed for a 10-year event and best management
practices would be designed for a 100-year event.
Chairman Noyes stated that he reviewed 517 pages regarding the proposal. He said there was a
huge concern about traffic. He requested information about the findings of the traffic study and
how it might mitigate resident concerns. Mr. Anderson answered that the study found that Bluff
Creek Drive and Pioneer Trail can handle the additional traffic loads. He stated that a comment
was that the southwest corner of the site has a hillside, so they would need to regrade this so
people can see traffic coming down the hill.
Mr. Grunig clarified that the access proposed onto Pioneer Trail would be a right-in and right-out
access only which would reduce the conflicts of the possible traffic issues. He said there was
adequate capacity on Pioneer Trail and Bluff Creek Boulevard to support the homes.
Commissioner Schwartz asked if the additional traffic generated by the 60 homes had been
looked into with regard to adding to the existing traffic from the neighborhood to the north. Mr.
Grunig answered that Bluff Creek Boulevard was designed to support the growth of additional
developments.
Commissioner Schwartz asked if there was a way to objectively identify the discrepancy
between what he said and the comments from the neighbors about the safety issues with
additional traffic regarding the development. Mr. Grunig answered that he would have to discuss
the information with the Engineering Department to understand the best response.
Mr. Maass said that Bluff Creek Boulevard and Pioneer Trail were collector streets. He said that
collector streets are designed to absorb traffic flows from neighborhoods as cities utilize the land
use plan. He said that as they anticipated growth, roads needed to be built to support the growth.
He said that Bluff Creek Boulevard was built to accommodate the anticipated traffic generated as
land was developed in accordance with the city’s Comprehensive Plan land use designations.
Commissioner Schwartz said that the neighbors to the north said that there are current safety
issues regarding traffic in the neighborhood and that this development would add additional
safety issues. Although Bluff Creek Boulevard is a collector road, the residents believe there are
current traffic safety issues before the added development. The development could increase the
issues. He asked how to resolve the discrepancies between the complaints and the information
provided. Mr. Maass responded that the applicant would need to address the grading of the hill to
help with the visibility to help with safety. He stated that the perception of a safety concern is not
the same as a traffic study which uses accepted engineering standards to identify safety issues
that require mitigation.
Commissioner Soller asked if there were any changes to prevent left turns out of the
neighborhood onto Pioneer Trail. Mr. Anderson answered that there was a median in the center
of Pioneer Trail to help with this concern.
101
Planning Commission Minutes – February 18, 2025

Commissioner Soller asked if it was a single-stop sign for exiting traffic but remained a through-
road for north and south traffic on Bluff Creek Boulevard. Mr. Anderson confirmed this
information.
Mr. Anderson noted that there was a private overhead streetlight proposed at that intersection for
nighttime driving and lighting purposes.
Chairman Noyes asked if the wet pond expansion would be a city pond. Mr. Seidl answered that
this decision was not sorted out. He explained that when you mix public and private stormwater
it becomes public. The pond expansion would benefit residents.
Commissioner Rosengren asked if there was a necessity for a fence or a barrier for road noise on
the east side of the development since it appeared to be close to 212. Mr. Maass said that they
sent the plans for MnDOT for review, but a barrier was unnecessary.
Commissioner Rosengren asked if there would be new trees planted on the east side that might
help with the noise. Mr. Maass confirmed this information.
Commissioner Schwartz asked how the city would implement their maintenance easement if the
plans were private. Mr. Seidl answered that if the ponds were private, the city would not have an
easement over them. He said that they would have a stormwater operations agreement that gave
similar rights as an easement to inspect best management practices, but the city would not need
to have an easement over it. Mr. Seidl said the city found that maintaining easements over a
stormwater infrastructure made it complicated to figure out how they would be maintained.
There is a standard template agreement that explains how the best management practices would
be maintained. He stated that he spent a lot of time reviewing and making comments because he
wanted to make sure that a future person in the water resources engineer role would understand
what the city owns and maintains and what the private owner owns and maintains.
Commissioner Schwartz asked if they anticipated a check and balance or an oversight on the
maintenance of these ponds. Mr. Seidl answered that there were requirements with the permitting
from the MPCA. The permitting process requires a program that checks in on private best
management practices. He stated that the city is working on collecting data and building out a
database. He commented that the general idea is in the future, the city would be auditing and
doing inspections. He said that the inspection form that is standard with the agreement requires
that the private owner completes an inspection every year and submits it to the city. Mr. Seidl
said that he would link these inspections to the database and it would be clear what properties
were not completing the inspections and the city would follow up.
Commissioner Schwartz asked if there would be penalties. Mr. Seidl confirmed this information.
Commissioner Schwartz provided an example of how his Homeowners Association has had
many boards come and go, so the current board has no idea about their responsibilities for the
maintenance of the stormwater pond. He stated that the developer sold homes with a water
feature rather than a stormwater maintenance pond, and sold the houses for $10,000 more. He
102
Planning Commission Minutes – February 18, 2025
7
said that residents feel confused and angry when muck appears on the stormwater ponds every
year.
Mr. Seidl said he would be happy to discuss this situation with him and answer questions about
the maintenance of the stormwater feature in his development.
Commissioner Schwartz thanked Mr. Seidl for the offer.
Commissioner Goff said that the street moved from a public street to a private street, so there
would be responsibilities for snow removal. He asked if any other services were impacted, such
as fire. Mr. Maass said that since the width of the street was reduced, there would be no street
parking to ensure that there would be access for emergency service vehicles in the event of an
emergency. He explained that the north corner and the eastern corner have turnarounds that the
fire department reviewed. He stated that there is a twenty-foot front yard setback in the
driveways to allow for parking.
Commissioner Jobe asked how much public parking was available per unit. Mr. Maass answered
that the city requires one guest parking stall for every four units. He stated that since there were
60 units, the City Code would require 15 parking stalls.
Chairman Noyes asked if there was a plan to revisit the visitor parking stalls since it was
centralized. Mr. Maass answered that the city recommended that the applicant move some of the
parking to the corner so it would be more accessible to other units.
Commissioner Soller clarified the zoning changes. He said that the Comprehensive Plan had
guided the future of this lot for many years. He said that the Comprehensive Plan sets things in
motion, but there might be flexibility in terms of what it allows. He stated that R8 was one
permissible re-zoning outcome, but asked if other potential zoning outcomes were allowed
within the available zones. Mr. Maass answered that the Comprehensive Plan establishes a range
that densities had to fall within. He explained that the Residential Medium Zoning District
requires between four and eight units an acre. He said the Comprehensive Plan identifies four
zoning districts – RLM, R8, PUDR within the Residential Medium Zoning District. He said that
the R8 was one of the zoning districts allowed.
Commissioner Soller asked if the city was led by the interests of the land developer if it fell
within the Comprehensive Plan requirements. He wanted to understand the confines of the
Comprehensive Plan and submitted proposals. Mr. Maass answered that the Comprehensive Plan
shows the zoning district options. Once the zoning district is selected based on which zoning
districts are eligible, there are minimum standards that need to be met with the zoning district.
Chairman Noyes asked if the bike path and sidewalks were being maintained in the plan. Mr.
Maass answered that they were in the city’s right-of-way and being maintained.
Commissioner Soller asked if the green area was zoned A2. Mr. Maass answered that the land
was owned by the city and was a part of the Bluff Creek Overlay District. He stated it had an A2
zoning designation.
103
Planning Commission Minutes – February 18, 2025

Commissioner Soller asked if the other gray areas to the east were part of the MnDOT right-of-
way. Mr. Maass confirmed that information.
Commissioner Schwartz asked if the other parcels owned by MnDOT in the immediate vicinity
could be sold. Mr. Maass said it was his understanding that those parcels were not intended to be
sold. The other areas were not seen as developable with the interchanges and heavily wooded
areas.
Commissioner Soller said he wanted to understand the structure and the process behind the
decision. He asked whether there were additional options or if it was a well-designed plan. Mr.
Maass said that the project as proposed did not request variances, and it meets the land use
parameters and zoning standards. He stated that the city staff prepared findings of fact related to
the subdivision and site plan for approval. If the Planning Commission or City Council finds that
there is a finding of fact that is inaccurate, they could provide concern. He commented that city
staff work hard to ensure accurate findings of fact.
Chairman Noyes indicated that there were sixteen letters from the public. Some of the letters
were submitted before the changes to the site plan. He reviewed the themes of the letters,
including tree removal, parking and traffic, potential declining traffic values, erosion, flooding,
lack of a buffer, and removal of green space. He stated there would be a five-minute limit per
person. He requested that they state their name and address and speak clearly in the microphone.
He requested if the agreement is the same as one previously mentioned, to state the similarity
rather than giving detailed information. He said if the information was new, it could be shared.
Chairman Noyes opened the public hearing.
Geoff Wong, 1674 Hemlock Way, voiced appreciation to the Mayor for answering questions to
understand the on-site concerns. He said he understood that growth was needed, but was
concerned with how it was being done. He discussed the erosion concerns and echoed agreement
on the comments from the commissioner. He said that there were a lot of kids in the
neighborhood, so he had safety concerns. He stated that there was a huge park to the west of the
neighborhood that was utilized by the kids for recreational needs, so the collector road is
frequently occupied and crossed. He stated that the traffic was a concern since Avienda was
brought to light. He commented that there were concerns about emergency services being able to
access the road. He asked if taxpayer money is used to improve the current infrastructure to
support this type of neighborhood. He said that the infrastructure or the strain on the city would
be impacted, especially if additional neighborhoods like this come up. He suggested a
Comprehensive Risk Assessment Plan for the commissioners to understand the uncertainty about
who was responsible for different aspects of the drainage. He said a mitigation plan should be
fully understood before the site plan was approved. He asked how the 2040 Comprehensive Plan
aligned with the city. He commented that Chanhassen was voted as one of the most desirable
cities to live in and there was a reason for that, so it would be important to consider what was
best for the neighborhood.

Erin Wong, 1674 Hemlock Way, voiced appreciation for the changes to the setback in some
areas by Brandl Anderson. She said she did not see changes to the setback on the east side, so
some homes are still pretty tight along the property. She proposed a solution to consider single-
family homes against the existing single-family homes and then keeping the rest of the property
of townhomes. She said that the road would be the buffer and it would be similar to the current
neighborhood. She suggested they could also consider duplexes. She said these options would
help keep greenspace and the feel of the neighborhood and mitigate the issues of reduced
property values. She said that two neighbors moved and had to accept offers of $20,000 to
$30,000 less than if the townhomes were not going to be placed in the backyard. She reiterated
the traffic concerns by adding 60 townhomes and potentially 120 more cars. She often sees near-
misses and has to wait often to cross the street when she is walking her dog. She commented that
the trees would take twenty to thirty years for the trees to grow to provide a buffer to the
townhomes.
Lindsey Button, 1655 Hemlock Way, said that her property line sits approximately 20 feet from
the back patio of the 290-foot proposed two-story multi-family housing structure. She
commented that the structure was very different from the existing single-family homes. She said
it was different to share backyard space with one family than with six families. She thanked
Brandl Anderson for listening to their concerns and putting evergreens to create a buffer. She
said that there was limited space and the townhouse residents could likely reach out from their
patio and touch the evergreens. She commented that trees were too close and did not align with
the Comprehensive Plan, which required transitions between different land uses. She said when
these natural features were absent, the land use plan allowed for buffer yards with increased
setbacks with landscaping and berms to improve the separation of incompatible uses. She said
that there should be an orderly setback that makes sense and provided an example of the Lake
Susan Development that provided 100 feet of separation between the low-density houses and
medium-density houses. She asked for the same consideration when considering the
development of their property. She reiterated the concerns of Erin Wong with the traffic. She
commented that the road was icy and snowy in the winter and coming down the hill was
dangerous, so it was a huge risk for young drivers. She said there was poor visibility on Hemlock
Drive which provided additional risks for drivers. She voiced concerns about the influx of traffic
with Avienda. She appreciated the discussion of the medium-density designation for the land and
reviewed what the Comprehensive Plan stated. She said it would make more sense to be R4
rather than R8 when backing up to single-family homes. She commented that the land was 11.75
acres and 2.5 acres would be road and infrastructure and 2.5 acres would not be developed. She
said there would be 10 dwellings per acre which far exceeded the amount allowed by R8
development. She requested to reconsider if it made sense to put 10 houses on one acre behind
low-density homes. She requested that the land be redesignated to R4 to provide continuity with
the other neighborhoods, provide a sense of order, and decrease traffic concerns to keep kids
safe.
Kristie Habermaier, 1664 Hemlock Way, stated that she was the original owner of her house and
moved in in 2011. She said that she understood the need for growth in the community, but did
not believe the current Pioneer Ridge proposal did not match the best interests of the
neighborhood or the city. She voiced agreement with the previously stated safety concerns. She
discussed the entrance added to Bluff Creek Drive. She said the hill prevented visibility, but the
105
Planning Commission Minutes – February 18, 2025
10
trees also did. She commented that there was ice which provided concerns. She stated she was
worried about the intersection with the newly licensed drivers and newly permitted drivers in the
driveway. She commented that her daughter has an easier time pulling out of the driveway at
nighttime since you can see headlights. She thought that the traffic would get worse, especially
with the completion of Avienda. She said her house shares a backyard with Becky’s house on
Mayapple. She appreciated that they measured her strip of Hemlock and Mayapple, but those
were single-family house homes backing up to each other, not townhouses. She commented that
the City of Chanhassen was voted as one of the best places to raise a family. She explained that
her neighborhood acted as her village as she helped raise a family and was a tight-knit group.
She commented that a few neighbors moved because of the development and other families were
planning to do the same if the current proposal went through. She voiced devastation about the
idea of the neighborhood being ripped apart. She said that a developer told her at a meeting that
it could be worse and the townhouses could be three stories, but that did not make her feel better.
She voiced appreciation that they listened to concerns and made some changes but expressed the
need to consider other options such as what Lindsey Button mentioned. She asked that they
reconsider the street that enters and exits on Bluff Creek Drive. She encouraged the Planning
Commission to consider their own houses and neighborhoods and if this would be something that
they would want.
Tedd Homa, 1545 Hemlock Way, commented that his house did not back up to the proposed
development. He shared the same concerns already mentioned by other neighbors. He also
expressed concerns about safety westbound on Pioneer Trail, which was 50 miles per hour over
the overpass. He said that the roads were not in good shape, and you could not be in the right-
hand lane without sliding. He worried about increased accidents on Pioneer Trail which would
be terrifying for new neighbors. He commented that he would be blocked from turning left on
Hemlock Way. He said it would be necessary to consider the proposed traffic from the south to
go to the industrial areas, especially the Avienda Group.
Cathy Santini, 1625 Hemlock Way, said that she had three traffic questions and issues directed to
the city. She asked as you are heading northbound on Bluff Creek Drive, if there would be a
right-hand turn lane. She also asked if there would be a left-hand turn lane for southbound traffic.
She thought a turn lane would be helpful for the traffic coming through the neighborhood. She
discussed the iciness when coming south on Bluff Creek Drive and asked for the city to keep an
eye on the intersection to see if it needed to be regraded. There has been a lot of snow and ice
that gathered there in the past. She stated there were lights in four directions as you were headed
eastbound on Pioneer Trail at the intersection. But if you were headed eastbound, you only get a
yellow flashing arrow for turning and there is no green arrow. She suggested a green arrow to
have the right-of-way would be helpful.
Russell Holmes, 1635 Hemlock Way, commented that his property was in front of the water
course. He agreed with the concerns discussed by his neighbors. He agreed with Cathy’s
comments about adding turning lanes for traffic. He said that Bluff Creek has unregulated
crosswalks and traffic circles, so increased traffic flow puts additional risks. He said Pioneer
Trail had traffic lights, but Bluff Creek did not even though they were classified in similar ways.
He thanked the Planning Commission for looking at the plan and their concerns regarding traffic
and drainage. He stated he heard a lot about water drainage to the west. He said the watercourse
106
Planning Commission Minutes – February 18, 2025
11
was horrendous with the erosion and the debris. He voiced concerns about relying on it as a
major point of drainage but figuring out the details after the plan was approved. He asked who
would maintain the watercourse long term and the agreements with the city to ensure it remains
an open drainage site. He appreciates that the developer listened to concerns and added trees as a
buffer, but the trees would be small for many years. Mr. Holmes suggested that the northern
perimeter should also have trees so that those on the edge of the property would receive the
benefit of privacy from the development. He said that the two outlots to the property should
become a part of city land to ensure that they remain green space in the future.
Glen Shoenberg, 1665 Hemlock Way, said that Chanhassen has had a lot of well-planned
growth, but he did not think that this project was well-planned. He commented that the road
came out on a hill, which made it difficult to make a left turn onto the development from the
north if there was ice on the road. He said that there was a crosswalk further north up the hill to
the park, but not everyone utilizes the crosswalk and choose to cross at Hemlock Way. He
commented that kids do not understand the risks of crossing the road. He stated that there were
sixteen guest parking spaces and no street parking, which was not enough. There was no street
parking on Bluff Creek Drive or Pioneer Trail, so he voiced concerns about parking on Hemlock
Way and people crossing through his backyard. He voiced concerns about safety such as
trespassing. He said that people choose Chanhassen for the thoughtfulness of neighborhood
design and green spaces. There was a lack of green, open space in this design. He commented
that Chanhassen needed to maintain green space and environmental health and that the proposed
development introduces a metropolitan atmosphere. He stated that other townhomes in
Chanhassen have increased buffer spaces. He said that the 2040 Chanhassen Comprehensive
Plan supports low-density residential development in appropriate areas of the community in such
areas that maintain the aesthetic of single-family homes and to create new neighborhoods with
similar quality. He said that the plan also requires increased buffer areas for neighborhoods of
different densities. He commented that the city needed to ensure the landowner abides by these
requirements and urged alternate solutions for the development of the land. He believes that the
property met the zoning requirements but not the land-use goals in the Comprehensive Plan.
Nancy Gilmore, 1705 Hemlock Way, said that her house backs up to the development. She
agreed with the statements from her neighbors. She said today as she pulled onto Bluff Creek,
she almost got into a car accident. She stated that the through traffic from Pioneer Trail to
Avienda was ridiculous. She said it was difficult to cross the road to the park. She stated that the
buffer of small trees would not make a difference. She said that they need to consider respect for
the residents who have lived there for years.
Christopher Juulke, 1778 Marigold Court, agreed with the statements shared tonight by other
residents. He reiterated the safety concern and said that there were no places where the cars stop
between the stoplight and the roundabout further down, so cars increase their speed while
driving. He asked for additional ideas to slow the traffic and provide safe-crossing for children.
Jason Besler, 1704 Hemlock Way, said the development did not directly impact his property. He
stated that there were a lot of unanswered questions, so he encouraged the Planning Commission
to call a time-out and hold additional discussions.
107
Planning Commission Minutes – February 18, 2025

Glen Shoenberg, 1665 Hemlock Way, spoke again. He said that the traffic proposal said that the
grading won’t meet the recommended sight lines for the proposal.
Chairman Noyes closed the public hearing.
Chairman Noyes said that there were a lot of comments about the traffic study and residents
provided valid comments. He recognized that both of the roads were collector roads and he asked
what options there were on the roads as it related to safety, such as turn lanes or roundabouts.
Mr. Grunig answered that turn lanes were not a part of the project right now, and it was not
recommended based on the traffic study.
Chairman Noyes asked how to separate the facts from fiction as it relates to traffic and whether
there were actions that the city could take to improve the situation. He asked how they were
evaluated and implemented. Mr. Grunig said he would love to hear about the safety concerns
specifically from residents as he is the chair of the Traffic Safety Committee and can request
more enforcement. He stated that Bluff Creek Boulevard was a collector road and is designed to
receive a lot of traffic. He commented that there were different ways that the city could decrease
speed or improve pedestrian safety.
Chairman Noyes said it would be important to review the options based on concerns.
Commissioner Schwartz commented on the high usage rates of the adjacent Pioneer Pass Park
and said it was an everyday issue to have difficulties crossing the street to get to the park. He
asked how someone doing a traffic study could not see these issues, unless they were not
accurate. Mr. Maass answered that the traffic study did not make the lived experiences untrue,
but the traffic study is a science-based engineering approach to analyze the roadway capacity and
design solutions. He commented that proper grading can solve the sight distance issue. The
analysis did not require turn lanes, but the neighbors expressed concerns about traffic issues on
Bluff Creek Boulevard. He said that these traffic issues could be brought to the city’s Traffic
Safety Committee for review. He said there were additional pedestrian safety issues that could be
improved by the city that the city could improve when necessary. These improvements are not
connected to the development or within the boundaries of the proposed plat.
Commissioner Schwartz reiterated if residents follow up with Mr. Grunig, they can be sure that
there concerns about traffic on Bluff Creek Boulevard are heard. Mr. Maass answered that he
took extensive notes and would take the information to the Traffic Safety Committee to discuss
additional improvements.
Chairman Noyes asked if potential pedestrian improvements within the road would be a parallel
or a serial process to the review of this project. He asked if they could put a hold on the project
until the road improvements were made. Mr. Maass answered that the two projects would be
separate and were not applicable to the rezoning or the site plan.
Commissioner Jobe said if the setback was set, but people were asking to reduce the size of the
housing unit or the angle, the Planning Commission could only put it as a request. Mr. Maass
answered that they could make it a request but not a requirement.
108
Planning Commission Minutes – February 18, 2025

Commissioner Schwartz clarified that changing the configuration of the development, such as
switching to single-family houses, would be outside of the Planning Commission’s role. Mr.
Maass confirmed this information unless there were amendments to the Comprehensive Plan or a
request by the property owner for a switch in which of the eligible zoning districts was being
pursued.
Chairman Noyes asked if they were providing feedback about zoning. Mr. Maass said they were
providing recommendations on the rezoning, preliminary plat, and site plan.
Commissioner Schwartz clarified that the plan meets the criteria, so the discretion to approve or
not approve is based on whether it meets the criteria. He commented that since it meets the
criteria, they have no choice but to confirm. Mr. Maass confirmed this information.
Commissioner Soller asked about the exit onto Bluff Creek Drive and if it was required based on
the flow of traffic and how people should enter and exit the new neighborhood, or if it was based
on how the developers wanted to plan the neighborhood to meet market demand. He asked if
there was an alternative to consider no exit onto Bluff Creek Drive since there were concerns
about traffic on Bluff Creek Drive. Mr. Maass answered that access to Bluff Creek and Pioneer
Trail was a recommendation of city staff. There was a limitation for cul-de-sacs of 750 feet for
purposed of public safety. Anything in excess of 750 feet would require a variance and it was
unclear if city staff would support such a request.
Commissioner Soller clarified that the exits and entrances were for public safety. Mr. Maass
answered that the recommendations for exits and entrances were a right-in and right-out on
Pioneer Trail and access to Bluff Creek Boulevard.
Commissioner Jobe asked if there was a 100-year flood and if areas were public, the city would
service it, but if it was private, the Homeowner’s Association would be responsible. He asked
about the triangle point and whether it could be made into public land for a playground or a
nature preserve. Mr. Maass responded that the city would own a portion of the land for
preservation excluding the pond and the best management practice area.
Mr. Seidl voiced appreciation for the stance expressed for the plans to be fully figured out with
no questions. He said the stormwater design was complicated and there were a lot of moving
parts. He looks through developments through a specific lens to determine whether the plans are
far along enough so that he can address reasonable concerns. He said during a preliminary plat
review; he is conditioning things that need to be done before a final plat review. The designation
of the water feature depends on the final design and if it would be considered private or public.
He would not let things move forward from a stormwater perspective unless there were
engineering solutions for any possible issues.
Commissioner Schwartz asked if a Homeowners Association would be required to maintain a
vegetative buffer around the ponds. Mr. Seidl answered that the City Code did not require a
buffer around stormwater management features. He said that the wet ponds would not require a
109
Planning Commission Minutes – February 18, 2025
14
native buffer, but there were rules and regulations on watercourses that the applicant would need
to sort through.
Commissioner Soller said that an unanswered question was about the language brought up when
planning developments in the Comprehensive Plan, especially with the transition from one zone
to another zone. He said that the plan felt slightly in contradiction to the language of the
Comprehensive Plan about transitions from one zone to the next. Mr. Maass said that the Pioneer
Pass neighborhood was zoned residential low-medium or RLM. He stated that the
Comprehensive Plan looked to segmentally organize land use and that medium density
residential adjacent to low density residential is an appropriate land use adjacency. He said that
an example of an incompatible adjacent land use designation would be heavy industrial. He said
that the modified proposal was aligned with the distances of the homes in the area, but
recognized the differences between spacing with townhomes and single-family homes. He
commented that the buffering area was appropriate and based on city code.
Commissioner Jobe asked about privacy and separation. Mr. Maass answered that both evergreen
and decisions trees were proposed for buffering and would be six-foot at installation and should
grow one to two feet per year. He commented a six-foot tree was less susceptible to various
issues when transplanted than larger trees.
Commissioner Rosengren said he reviewed the Carver County Community Development
Agency’s Housing Marke Study which was recently reviewed by the City Council. He said that
the report stated that Chanhassen has a nine-month supply of land to build new houses. He said
that the median cost to build a new house in Chanhassen was $800,000 and that 90 percent of the
people who work in Chanhassen do not live in Chanhassen. He asked where houses would fit in
Chanhassen to meet Carver County expectations. He stated that the concerns were valid and
needed to be heard by the city staff, but they would need to consider how to provide different
types of housing options for individuals who will move to Chanhassen in the future. He stated it
was less of a concern about the zoning and whether it fit into the Comprehensive Plan, but there
was a need to adapt and grow as a community while also properly addressing resident concerns.
Commissioner Soller stated he questioned whether the City Code made appropriate requirements
and whether the design was considered when two different zones were next to each other. He
asked if the City Code considered transitions between different districts. Mr. Maass answered
that the city had buffer yard requirements and design guidelines for multi-family housing.
Commissioner Soller asked if the buffers and setbacks required in an R8 do not change based on
the zone it is next to. Mr. Maass indicated that city code outlines the buffering requirements
based on adjacent land use.
Commissioner Soller said maybe the idea was unheard of in City Planning. Mr. Maass said that
the downtown zoning district required a high-density residential adjacent to detached single-
family homes, the rear yard setback must match the setback for single-family homes even though
it is zoned for downtown designation. He explained that the downtown designation and detached
single-family designation were opposite ends of the zoning ordinance in terms of density. He
stated that the city could add one between R8 and RLM, but it is not in the City Code today so it
110
Planning Commission Minutes – February 18, 2025
15
could not consider that as a variable applicable to the project. He stated that R8 and RLM zoning
districts were similar to each other, so it might not be appropriate to mandate the same rear yard
setback. He stated that they were not far off from meeting the comparison.
Commissioner Schwartz said that Chanhassen has developed the Comprehensive Plan and
Zoning Ordinance appropriately which could be built on in the future.
Chairman Noyes said he was not sold on the traffic study. He had trust in the city and that they
would investigate issues and consider resolutions. He understood that people had concerns about
erosion. He said that he was confident between Mr. Seidl’s team, the developer, and the DNR,
the concerns with erosion and water would be addressed. He stated that the builder proposed an
adequate buffer. He said that the buffer was not the issue, but that residents did not want
townhomes in the area. He stated that the decrease of property values was not because they were
townhomes, but because of the loss of green space in the backyard. He commented that the green
space would go away no matter how the land was developed. He said that there needed to be
further discussions about traffic and it would need to be a parallel process. They would not stop
the project because of the traffic. He wanted the City Council to know that there were concerns
with the set-up of the roads and there were some solutions that could mitigate the traffic and
safety concerns expressed. He said that collector roads were designed to have a lot of traffic on
them, but high-volume streets could still be made safer and fit the needs of residents.
Commissioner Schwartz asked if the property values go down because the green space was being
developed and if the property value differences would be offset since the townhomes would be
fairly expensive. Chairman Noyes answered that he was not sure, but it was a good question.
Commissioner Soller said that the City Council would need to review the concerns since they
have a wider purview. He encouraged them not to stigmatize individuals moving into the
townhomes. People tend to treat the neighborhood as their own and treat it respectfully.
Chairman Noyes commented that the residents in the townhomes would have common goals of
safety for their families.
Commissioner Schwartz asked if they wanted the City Council to see their concerns and if they
should change the motion or provide comments. Mr. Maass responded that he took copious notes
from the meeting tonight and there would be no need to amend the motion. He said that the
comments from the public meeting and the meeting minutes would be provided to the City
Council. The concerns had been noted and would be addressed at the City Council.
Chairman Noyes said the Planning Commission’s job is to make sure the proposals met the land
use and zoning designations. The Planning Commission was a recommending body based on
those factors. He wanted residents to understand that the commission could not vote no to a
project just because of other merits.
Commissioner Jobe moved, Commissioner Schwartz seconded that the Chanhassen
Planning Commission recommends that the City Council approve the requested rezoning
of the property to R-8 Mixed Medium Density Residential District and recommending

identifying the acreage that the city would buy and platting it out to leave useable outlots on
either side for a future hotel. He said he had no other pending applications within Avienda to
share at that time.
Commissioner Schwartz asked when demolition of the hotel downtown would commence. Mr.
Maass answered that the site owners received approval from the Watershed District with
conditions. They are working on those conditions for final approval from the Watershed District
until they move forward. There were a few things that needed to be done before taking down the
building, but the building would be demolished into itself and then debris cleared. He stated that
the cinema demolition would take a month and then they would move forward to the hotel.
Commissioner Jobe asked if there are any changes planned for the transit facility. Mr. Maass said
he was not aware of any changes to the transit facility.

communication channels several times, but they do not have a specific date, but it is likely soon.
Commissioner Schwartz suggested sharing the demolition date with the local media and the
museum to capture the last hurrah of the mural and structures. Mr. Maass responded that the
Historical Society already removed items from the hotel and High Timber Lounge.

SUMMARY
The City's 2040 Comprehensive Plan calls for the city allowing density bonuses in exchange for the
creation of affordable housing. The City has been approached by a developer seeking to utilize this
bonus policy. However, in order for the policy to be utilized as outlined in the Comprehensive Plan, the
city must establish rules and regulations for the program in city code. Staff has drafted the attached
ordinance for planning commission feedback related to density bonuses.
As currently drafted, the Ordinance would allow for up to 25% increased density for residential projects
in the R-8, R-12, R-16, PUD-R, and CBD zoning districts. The Metropolitan Council's threshold for
affordable housing is based on a minimum density of 8 units per acre which is staff's basis for using the
114
R-8 district as a minimum threshold.
The City Council reviewed the draft ordinance during their work session on February 24th, 2025 and
the council appreciated the city’s efforts to support affordable housing and suggested a number of
revisions which have been incorporated into the draft ordinance which is included with this agenda
item. City Council requested the removal of reduced lot size, and reduced lot width incentives in
exchange for affordable bonus units as well as affirmed that bonus units should also be subject to
standard guest parking calculations as outlined by city code.
The City Council is scheduled to review this draft ordinance again at their March 10th work session
following Planning Commission input.

(5) Affordable dwelling unit size. The affordable dwelling units shall have room
sizes comparable to the room sizes in market rate dwelling units.
(6) Tenants. Rental affordable dwelling units shall be rented only to income eligible
families during the period of affordability. A household that was income eligible
at initial occupancy may remain in the affordable dwelling unit for additional
rental periods as long as the income of the household does not exceed 140
percent of the applicable AMI.
(7) Non-discrimination based on rent subsidies. Developments covered by the
chapter must not discriminate against tenants who would pay their rent with
