SUMMARY OF REQUEST: The applicant is requesting a Comprehensive Plan Amendment to
incorporate the property in the current Metropolitan Urban Service Area (MUSA); a Rezoning from A2,
Agricultural Estate District, to RSF, Single Family Residential District; Subdivision Approval to create 58
single family lots (48 in Chanhassen), 8 outlots (3 in Chanhassen), and public fight-of-way with a variance
for street width; and a Wetland Alteration Permit to fill and alter wetlands on site.
LEVEL OF CITY DISCRETION IN DECISION-MAKING:
The City has a relatively high level of discretion in approving rezonings because the City is acting in its
legislative or policy making capacity. A rezoning must be consistent with the City's Comprehensive
Plan.
The City's discretion in approving or denying a preliminary plat is limited to whether or not the proposed
plat meets the standards outlined in the Subdivision Regulations and Zoning Ordinance. If it meets these
standards, the City must approve the preliminary plat. This is a quasi judicial decision.
Notice of this public hearing has been mailed to all property owners within 500 feet.

PROPOSAL/SUMMARY
The project site is adjacent to the Settlers Ridge development and Richard T. Anderson Conservation Area
in Eden Prairie. To the south is the Moon Valley mining operation as well as Minnesota River Valley
bluffs. To the west are the Hennepin County Regional Trail and the Deerbrook subdivision. Access to the
site is proposed via local streets in Eden Prairie which connect to Pioneer Trail. Sewer and water service is
proposed by the City of Eden Prairie. The site is heavily vegetated in the southern portion of the property
and on all the bluffs. Bluff areas surround the south side of the property. Wetlands exist on and adjacent to
the property.
The developer requires a Comprehensive Plan Amendment to permit the extension of sewer and water
service from Eden Prairie. Currently, the property is located within the 2020 Metropolitan Urban Services
Area (MUSA) as shown in the City's 2020 Comprehensive Plan. Due to the topographically isolated nature
of the site, surrounded on the west, south and southeast by bluff areas, it would be very difficult and require
significant environmental impacts to service this property through the City of Chanhassen. During the 1998
Comprehensive Plan Update, the Zwiers had requested to be included in the MUSA earlier than the
projected year of 2015. At the time, staff was reluctant to remove any property from the City's service area.
The Council concurred and the property was given a 2015 MUSA staging. Over the last few years, staff
has examined service costs and different development scenarios. Because of the existing bluff line, them
are two different development areas, the gravel pit below and the area above the bluff. If the site were to be
developed with Chanhassen utilities, a road would have to be built between 212/Flying Cloud Drive and
Pioneer Trail. This road would become a collector street based on the need for a north-south connection.
This road would also have an impact on the bluff because of substantial grading. Therefore, staff agreed to
work with Eden Prairie to provide utilities to service the upper bluff area. Since urban services are
available through the Settlers Ridge development to the east and because access and urban services will be
extended with the development of the lots in Eden Prairie, staff recommends that the project site be
included in the 2000 MUSA.
Rezoning the property from A2, Agricultural Estate District, to RSF, Single Family Residential District, is
consistent with and implements the comprehensive plan and is therefore recommended for approval.
The developer is requesting subdivision approval to create a 58-1ot single-family development (48 in
Chanhassen), 8 outlots (3 in Chanhassen), and public fight-of-way with a variance for street width; and a
Wetland Alteration Permit to fill and alter wetlands on site. The development includes trail access to the
Hennepin County Regional trail as well as the Richard T. Anderson Conservation Area and a tot lot,
neighborhood gathering area.
Wetland replacement shall occur in a manner consistent with the Minnesota Wetland Conservation Act
(MR 8420). The plans shall be revised to show wetland impacts and replacements.

BACKGROUND
A communication tower exists on the property. This tower and equipment building will need to be
removed as part of the development.
REZONING/CO~~HENSIVE PLAN
The property is located within the 2020 Metropolitan Urban Services Area (MUSA) as shown in the City's
2020 Comprehensive Plan. Due to the topographically isolated nature of the site, surrounded on the west,
south and southeast by bluff areas, it would be very difficult and require significant environmental impacts
to service this property through the City of Chanhassen. Bringing the property into the current urban
service area would permit the City of Eden Prairie to service the site with water and sewer in an efficient
and effective manner.
The property is guided in the comprehensive plan for Residential- Low Density Uses. The Residential-
Low Density designation permits net densities of 1.2 to 4.0 units per acre. The Single Family Residential
District, RSF, is consistent with this land use category.
WETLANDS
Existing Wetlands
Ten wetlands exist on-site (Wetlands A through J). Of those, two ag/urban wetlands (E and G) and two
natural wetlands (I and J) exist on the Chanhassen portion of the site. Wetland H is located in
Chanhassen just off the northwest portion of the property along the Hennepin County Regional Trail
Comdor. Westwood Professional Services, Inc. delineated the wetlands in December 2003.
Wetland E is a Type 3 wetland located in the north central portion of the property. The wetland is
dominated by cattail and reed canary grass. The wetland was created as a result of clay mining. The
applicant is proposing to fill Wetland E. The total proposed impact to Wetland E is 13,330 square feet
(0.31 acres). The applicant has received an incidental wetland exemption for this wetland fill.
Wetland G is a Type 2 wetland located in the northeastern portion of the property. The wetland is
dominated by reed canary grass. The wetland was farmed historically, but has not been cultivated for a
number of years. The applicant is proposing to fill the wetland. The total proposed impact to Wetland
G is 4,053 square feet (0.10 acres). The applicant has not provided details on wetland mitigation for this
proposed impact.
Settlers West
Planning Case #04-05
April 20, 2004
Page 4
Wetland H is a Type 2 wetland located just off the northwest portion of the property along the Hennepin
County Regional Trail Comdor. The wetland is dominated by switch grass and fowl bluegrass. The
applicant is not proposing to impact this wetland.
Wetland I is a Type 7 wetland located in the extreme southwest portion of the property. The wetland is
dominated by sedge, cattail and willow. The applicant is not proposing to impact this wetland.
Wetland J is a Type 7 wetland located in the extreme southwest portion of the property. The wetland is
dominated by green ash, rough horsetail and reed canary grass. The applicant is not proposing to impact
this wetland.
On December 29, 2003, City staff conducted an on-site review of the delineations for Wetlands E, G and
H. Westwood's delineation was confirmed by staff. Wetlands I and J were not field verified on
December 29, 2003. Staff will field verify these wetlands in the spring if the final plans involve the
discharge of pretreated storm water into these basins.
Wetland Replacement
Wetland replacement must occur in a manner consistent with the Minnesota Wetland Conservation Act
(MR 8420). The replacement plans should show fixed photo monitoring points for replacement
wetlands. A five-year wetland replacement monitoring plan should be submitted. The applicant should
provide proof of recording of a Declaration of Restrictions and Covenants for Replacement Wetland.
The applicant must receive approval of a wetland replacement plan prior to wetland impacts occumng.
A wetland buffer 0 to 20 feet in width (with a minimum average of 10 feet) must be maintained around
Wetland G (if it is not mitigated). A wetland buffer 10 to 30 feet in width (with a minimum average of
20 feet) must be maintained around Wetlands I and J. (Those buffers considered for PVC must maintain
a minimum width of 16.5 feet.) Wetland buffer areas should be preserved, surveyed and staked in
accordance with the City's wetland ordinance. The applicant must install wetland buffer edge signs, under
the direction of City staff, before construction begins and must pay the City $20 per sign.
BLUFFS
A large portion of the site has been identified as bluff (i.e., slope greater than or equal to 30% and a rise
in slope of at least 25 feet above the toe). These areas must be preserved. In addition, all structures
must maintain a 30-foot setback from the bluff and no grading may occur within the bluff impact zone
(i.e., the bluff and land located within 20 feet from the top of a bluff). The preliminary grading,
drainage and erosion control plan shows grading within the bluff impact zone on Lots 39 through 45.
The plans should be revised to eliminate grading within the bluff impact zone. A conservation easement
should be recorded over the bluffs and bluff impact zones. The developer should work with staff to
develop and install appropriate markers to demarcate the bluff impact zone.
A large amount of debris (including old cars, tires and appliances) has been discarded in the bluff areas
of this parcel. The applicant should work with City staff to develop a plan for bluff management. The
plan should include an assessment of the stability of bluff areas, an inventory of the discarded materials,
a plan for the clean-up of bluff areas and a restoration plan for critical and/or severely eroded areas. The
Settlers West
Planning Case #04-05

plan should also address reclamation of the Moon Valley site. The bluff management plan should be
implemented prior to or concurrently with subdivision construction.
GRADING~ DRAINAGE AND EROSION CONTROL
The existing site over the Chanhassen lots has tree cover over approximately 10 acres. The existing
bluff limit line surrounds all sides except a small portion at the northeasterly and northwesterly sides
along the property lines. The plans propose to grade about 60% of the site for the new house pads, a
proposed street, two cul-de-sacs and stormwater ponds. The proposed grading will prepare the site for
full basement, look-out and walk-out house pads. Since the first plan submittal, the developer has done
a better job of attempting to work with the existing topography and to minimize the amount of grading.
Staff would encourage the developer to continue to work on minimizing the amount of grading in the
rear yards of Lots 19-22. The applicant should be aware that the proposed retaining wall at the end of
Settlers Court will not be allowed within the street right-of-way. Also, any retaining wall over four feet
in height must be designed by a registered Civil Engineer in the State of Minnesota and it will require a
building permit.
The existing site drainage is encompassed within three different drainage areas. Under existing
conditions, the northern part of the site drains off-site to an existing wetland to the north; the
west/southwest portion of the site drains off-site to the County Railway comdor and eventually south to
a tributary creek of the Minnesota River; the east/southeast portion of the site drains off-site over the
existing bluff to the east. Under developed conditions, the applicant is proposing to capture all of the
street drainage and all of the front-yard drainage. This stormwater will be conveyed via storm sewer to
proposed ponds in the easterly and westerly center of the site for treatment. The proposed ponds must
be designed to National Urban Runoff Program (NURP) standards with maximum 3:1 slopes and a 10:1
bench at the NWL. The outlet for the ponds is a proposed storm sewer which drains to the existing
Hennepin County Regional Trail corridor. This drainage alignment will require a permit from Hennepin
County. Additionally, the City will require that the developer obtain approval from Hennepin County
for the City's use of the trail for maintenance access to the storm sewer.
Drainage calculations for the site have been submitted and only minor changes remain. The applicant is
required to meet the existing site runoff rates for the 10-year and 100-year, 24-hour storm events. Storm
sewer sizing calculations must be submitted prior to final plat application. The storm sewer must be
sized for a 10-year, 24-hour storm event. Drainage and utility easements must be dedicated on the final
plat over the public storm drainage system including ponds, drainage swales, and wetlands up to the
100-year flood level. The applicant is proposing a combination berm/swale and storm sewer system for
the rear yards of lots adjacent to the bluff. Staff is in favor of this design as it will help prevent future
erosion issues with the bluff.
Because of the sensitive nature of the site, staff recommends that Type III silt fence be used around the
perimeter of the entire site. In addition, tree preservation fencing must be installed at the limits of tree
removal. All disturbed areas, as a result of construction, must be seeded and mulched or sodded
immediately after grading to minimize erosion. The applicant should be aware that any off-site grading
will require an easement from the appropriate property owner. If importing or exporting material for
development of the site is necessary, the applicant will be required to supply the City with detailed haul
routes and traffic control plans.

Planning Case #04-05

Storm Water Management
Two storm water ponds are proposed for the Chanhassen portion of the site. The applicant has proposed
to outlet Pond 3 to Pond 2 and pipe the outlet of Pond 2 down the bluff, through Outlot F and into the
Hennepin County Regional Railway. The lots abutting bluff areas (Lots 12 through 39 and 46 through
50) should be graded to drain away from the bluff and bluff impact zone. In addition, a system of
swales and storm sewer with surface inlets should be installed for the rear yards of the lots abutting bluff
areas (Lots 12 through 39 and 46 through 50).
The plans for the cross-country storm sewer on Outlot F should be more detailed. Erosion blanket,
shade tolerant seed mix and fiber rolls are recommended to promote vegetation growth and temporarily
stabilize the exposed slope. Similar measures are needed should the 20-foot maintenance access be
developed.
To provide cost-effective sediment removal within Pond 3, a forebay should be located at the northern
end of the pond near the inlet.
Easements
A drainage and utility easement at least 20 feet in width should be centered over any swales and/or
storm sewer, including pond inlets and outlets. Slopes within the easements should be gradual enough
to permit access with heavy equipment.
Erosion and Sediment Control
In areas of steep topography and erosive soils, development can often increase storm water runoff
volumes and rates. Due to severe compaction of soils during the grading phases and lack of adequate
topsoil application, more storm water runoff results than the calculated runoff numbers. To alleviate this
potential problem, adequate, non-compacted topsoil should be applied to a depth of at least 6 inches
prior to the installation of permanent erosion control practices.
Silt fence is needed at the HWL of storm water ponds once the ponds are final grade and stabilized with
mulch and seed or blanket and seed.
After excavation of slopes adjacent to bluff areas and prior to home building activities (such as
excavating for foundations) the builders should install silt fence or other perimeter control (snow fence)
to protect the temporary stabilization methods and final grade elevations. Often, the spoil from
foundations will be spread on the lot and may alter the final grade elevations. Due to the sensitivity and
minute elevation differences needed for drainage along the bluff areas, the final grade and erosion
protection should be protected from disturbance and home building activities.
Erosion control blanket should be installed on all slopes greater than or equal to 3:1. All exposed soil
areas must have temporary erosion protection or permanent cover for the exposed soil areas year round,
according to the following table of slopes and time frames:
Settlers West
Planning Case #04-05
April 20, 2004
Page 7
Type of Slope Time
Steeper than 3:1 7 days
10:1 to 3:1 14 days
Flatter than 10:1 21 days
(Maximum time an area can
remain open when the area
is not actively being worked.)
These areas include constructed storm water management pond side slopes, and any exposed soil areas
with a positive slope to a storm water conveyance system, such as a curb and gutter system, storm sewer
inlet, temporary or permanent drainage ditch or other natural or man made systems that discharge to a
surface water.
Street cleaning of soil tracked onto public streets should include daily street scraping and street sweeping
as-needed.
Surface Water Management Fees
Water Quality Fees
Because of the impervious surface associated with this development, the water quality fees for this
proposed development are based on single-family residential development rates of $1,028/acre. Based on
the proposed developed area of 23.93 acres, the water quality fees associated with this project are $24,600.
Water Quantity Fees
The SWMP has established a connection charge for the different land uses based on an average citywide
rate for the installation of water quantity systems. This cost includes land acquisition, proposed SWMP
culverts, open channels, and storm water ponding areas for runoff storage. Single-family residential
developments have a connection charge of $2,545 per developable acre. This results in a water quantity fee
of approximately $60,902 for the proposed development.
SWMP Credits
This project proposes the construction of two NURP ponds with outlet control structures. The applicant
will receive a credit of $2,500 for each outlet structure.
At this time, the estimated total SWMP fee, due payable to the City at the time of final plat recording, is
$80,502.
Other Agencies
The applicant shall apply for and obtain permits from the appropriate regulatory agencies (e.g., Lower
Minnesota River Watershed District, Minnesota Pollution Control Agency, City of Eden Prairie, Minnesota
Department of Natural Resources (for &watering)) and comply with their conditions of approval.
Settlers West
Planning Case #04-05

UTILITIES
Municipal sanitary sewer and water for the development will be provided by the City of Eden Prairie.
The plans propose on extending sewer and water from both Explorer Trail and Pioneer Trail to service
the development. Overall, the utility layout looks fine and all of the utility improvements are required to
be constructed in accordance with the City of Eden Prairie's latest edition of Standard Specifications and
Detail Plates. Upon completion of the utility improvements, the utilities will be turned over to the City
of Eden Prairie for maintenance and ownership. A joint powers agreement covering this unique
situation is currently being negotiated between the cities.
STREETS
The plans propose on accessing the Chanhassen lots via Settlers West Road from the northeast through
Eden Prairie. The required right-of-way for public streets is 60 feet wide with a 60-foot radius for cul-
de-sacs. The applicant is proposing a 50-foot wide street right-of-way with a 28-foot street width from
back-of-curb to back-of-curb. The standard pavement width for public streets in Chanhassen is 31 feet
from back-of-curb to back-of-curb. In this case, staff is fine with the street width staying at 28 feet and
the fight-of-way of 50 feet. This size is consistent with the existing street width in Eden Prairie and it
will provide more flexibility in grading the rear yards for the proposed lots. In addition, it appears that
the centerline curve radius of Settlers West Road near Lot 18 is less than 180 feet, the required standard
for a 30 mph street. As such, the plans must be revised to maintain a 180-foot curve radius.
The proposed street access from Pioneer Trail will require approval from Hennepin County and the City
of Eden Prairie. Since the last submittal, the applicant has provided information that a safe roadway
design with adequate sight distances can be obtained with the addition of a westbound left turn lane on
Pioneer Trail. However, there is insufficient pavement width on the bridge deck, just west of the
proposed access, to incorporate a fight turn lane into the site.
TREE PRESERVATION AND LANDSCAPING
The developer for the Settler's West development has submitted tree canopy coverage and preservation
calculations. They are as follows:
Total upland area (excluding wetlands)
Baseline canopy coverage
Minimum canopy coverage allowed
Proposed tree preservation
44.6 ac.
64 % or 28.4ac.
46% or 20.5 ac.
50 % or 22.2 ac.
Developer meets minimum canopy coverage allowed.
There are no bufferyard requirements for this development.
There is one large stand of significant trees above the bluffs on site. The species found in that area are
mostly basswood and sugar maple, with some oak and hickory. There are little to no invasive species
found there. The wooded area provides excellent protection to the surrounding bluff and contains a
Settlers West
Planning Case #04-05
April 20, 2004
Page 9
large number of healthy and significant trees and should be preserved. Staff recommends that these tree
be preserved to the fullest extent possible.
Silt fence must be placed on the outside of the bluff impact zone boundary. No grading is allowed
within that area; therefore the silt fence should be placed outside of it.
PARKS AND OPEN SPACE
On February 24, 2004, the Park and Recreation Commission reviewed the proposed Settlers West
development. Justin Larson of Sathre-Berquist, Inc., representing the applicant, was present. Upon
conclusion of presentations and discussion by the Commission, the following recommendation was
forwarded:
"Commissioner O'Shea moved, Commissioner Atkins seconded to recommend that the City Council
require the following conditions of approval regarding parks, trails and trail connectors for Settlers
West.
An internal trail or sidewalk connection to the Southwest LRT Trail shall be constructed.
Appropriate public easements or outlots shall be dedicated to accommodate said trail.
o
A sidewalk along Settlers West Road be constructed, connecting the entire neighborhood to the
Richard T. Anderson Conservation Area, and that appropriate public easements or outlots be
maintained to facilitate this connection.
3. Full park dedication fees ($134,400) shall be collected in lieu of parkland dedication."
The developer's plans have incorporated conditions I and 2 as part of the project. The developer shall be
responsible for paying park dedication fees at the time of final plat recording. The 2004 park dedication
fees are $2,800 per dwelling unit.

Court. Lot 24 does not meet the minimum lot width at the 30 foot building setback line. The
lots in the area need to be reconfigured to assure that the minimum frontage is provided.
Alternatively, the applicant could delete two lots, which would eliminate the need for Settlers
Court, reducing development costs and preserving additional tree canopy in this area.
2. The development of the property is contingent on Eden Prairie approving the subdivision within
their jurisdiction. Without the road access and sewer and water service, this project would be
premature.
3. The development of the property is contingent on Eden Prairie approving the subdivision within
their jurisdiction. Without the road access and sewer and water service, this project would be
premature.
.
The developer shall be responsible for paying park dedication fees at the time of final plat
recording.
o
Wetland replacement must occur in a manner consistent with the Minnesota Wetland
Conservation Act (MR 8420). The applicant must receive approval of a wetland replacement
plan prior to wetland impacts occun-ing.
o
A wetland buffer 0 to 20 feet in width (with a minimum average of 10 feet) must be maintained
around Wetland G (if it is not mitigated). A wetland buffer 10 to 30 feet in width (with a
minimum average of 20 feet) must be maintained around Wetlands I and J. (Those buffers
considered for PVC must maintain a minimum width of 16.5 feet.) Wetland buffer areas should
be preserved, surveyed and staked in accordance with the City's wetland ordinance. The
applicant must install wetland buffer edge signs, under the direction of City staff, before
construction begins and must pay the City $20 per sign.
.
Bluff areas must be preserved. All structures must maintain a 30-foot setback from the bluff
and no grading may occur within the bluff impact zone (i.e., the bluff and land located within 20
feet from the top of a bluff). The plans should be revised to eliminate grading within the bluff
impact zone on Lots 39 through 45. A conservation easement should be recorded over the
bluffs and bluff impact zones. The developer should work with staff to develop and install
appropriate markers to demarcate the bluff impact zone.
o
The applicant should work with City staff to develop a plan for bluff management. The plan
should include an assessment of the stability of bluff areas, an inventory of the discarded
materials, a plan for the clean-up of bluff areas and a restoration plan for critical and/or severely
eroded areas. The plan should also address reclamation of the Moon Valley site. The bluff
management plan should be implemented prior to or concurrently with subdivision construction.
9. The lots abutting bluff areas (Lots 12 through 39 and 46 through 50) should be graded to drain
away from the bluff and bluff impact zone. In addition, a system of swales and storm sewer
with surface inlets should be installed for the rear yards of the lots abutting bluff areas (Lots 12
through 39 and 46 through 50).

10. The plans for the cross-country storm sewer on Outlot F should be more detailed. Erosion
blanket, shade tolerant seed mix and fiber rolls are recommended to promote vegetation growth
and temporarily stabilize the exposed slope. Similar measures are needed should the 20-foot
maintenance access be developed.
11. To provide cost-effective sediment removal within Pond 3, a forebay should be located at the
northern end of the pond near the inlet.
12. A drainage and utility easement at least 20 feet in width should be centered over any swales
and/or storm sewer, including pond inlets and outlets. Slopes within the easements should be
gradual enough to permit access with heavy equipment.
13. Adequate, non-compacted topsoil should be applied to a depth of at least 6 inches prior to the
installation of permanent erosion control practices.
14. Silt fence is needed at the HWL of storm water ponds once the ponds are final grade and
stabilized with mulch and seed or blanket and seed.
15. After excavation of slopes adjacent to bluff areas and prior to home building activities (such as
excavating for foundations) the builders should install silt fence or other perimeter control
(snow fence) to protect the temporary stabilization methods and final grade elevations.
16. Erosion control blanket should be installed on all slopes greater than or equal to 3:1. All
exposed soil areas must have temporary erosion protection or permanent cover for the exposed
soil areas year round, according to the following table of slopes and time frames:
Type of Slope Time
Steeper than 3:1 7 days
10:1 to 3:1 14 days
Flatter than 10:1 21 days
(Maximum time an area can
remain open when the area
is not actively being worked.)
17. These areas include constructed storm water management pond side slopes, and any exposed
soil areas with a positive slope to a storm water conveyance system, such as a curb and gutter
system, storm sewer inlet, temporary or pe~Tnanent drainage ditch or other natural or man made
systems that discharge to a surface water.
18. Street cleaning of soil tracked onto public streets shall include daily street scraping and street
sweeping as-needed.
19. The total SWMP fee, due payable to the City at the time of final plat recording, is $80,502.
20. The applicant shall apply for and obtain permits from the appropriate regulatory agencies (e.g.,
Lower Minnesota River Watershed District, Minnesota Pollution Control Agency, City of Eden
Settlers West

Prairie, Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (for dewatering)) and comply with their
conditions of approval.
21. Tree preservation fence shall be installed at the edge of the grading limits prior to any
construction. Fencing shall be in place and maintained until all construction is completed. In no
areas shall the fencing be placed within the bluff impact zone.
22. Any trees removed in excess of proposed tree preservation plans, dated 1/16/04, will be replaced
at a ratio of 2:1 diameter inches.
23. Any trees removed must either be chipped or hauled off site. No burning permits will be issued.
24. Silt fence must be placed outside of the bluff impact zone boundary.
25. A 10-foot clear space must be maintained around fire hydrants, i.e., street lamps, trees, shrubs,
bushes, Qwest, Xcel Energy, Cable TV and transformer boxes. This is to insure fire hydrants
can be quickly located and operated by firefighters. Pursuant to Chanhassen City Ordinance #9-
1.
26. Fire apparatus access roads and water supply for fire protection is required to be installed. Such
protection shall be installed and made serviceable prior to and during time of construction
except when approved, alternate methods of protection are provided. Temporary street signs
shall be installed at each street intersection when construction of roadways allows passage by
vehicles in accordance with Section 505.2 of the Minnesota Fire Code.
27. A final grading plan and soils report must be submitted to the Inspections Division before
building permits will be issued.
28. Demolition permits must be obtained prior to demolishing any structures on the site.
29. As utility service will be provided by the City of Eden Prairie, responsibility for permits and
inspections of the private sewer and water services must be determined.
30. The applicant will be required to meet the existing site runoff rates for the 10-year and 100-
year, 24-hour storm events. The proposed ponds must be designed to National Urban Runoff
Program (NURP) standards.
31. The storm sewer must be designed for a 10-year, 24-hour storm event. Submit storm sewer
sizing calcs and drainage map prior to final plat for staff review and approval.
32. Drainage and utility easements must be dedicated on the final plat over the public storm
drainage system including ponds, drainage swales, and wetlands up to the 100-year flood
level. The minimum easement width shall be 20 feet wide.
33. Because of the sensitive nature of the site, staff recommends that Type III silt fence per City
detail plate #5300 be used around the perimeter of the entire site. Also, remove the silt fence

detail from the preliminary grading plan (sheet #8.) In addition, tree preservation fencing
must be installed at the limits of tree removal. All disturbed areas, as a result of construction,
must be seeded and mulched or sodded immediately after grading to minimize erosion. The
applicant should be aware that any off-site grading will require an easement from the
appropriate property owner. If importing or exporting material for development of the site is
necessary, the applicant will be required to supply the City with detailed haul routes and
traffic control plans.
34. Revise the storm sewer pipe diameter from 12-inch to 15-inch minimum.
35. Permits from the appropriate governmental agencies must be obtained including' MPCA,
Watershed District, Hennepin/Carver County.

CITY OF CHANHASSF_.N
RECEIVED
DATE' January 14, 2004
CHANHASSEN PLANNING DEPT
We are pleased to present to you a proposal for a new neighborhood of single family detached custom
homes on the existing Moon Valley property.
BACKGROUND:
The Moon Valley Property, for you history types, was one of the early downhill ski areas developed in
the fifties with a rope tow. The rope tow used an old um-eliable tractor engine with pulleys made from
car tire rims mounted on used telegraph poles. Ask your parents about the telegraph. Subsequent to
that, the owners mined the rich gravel prevalent on the Minnesota River Bluff. The mined area of the
pit has been and is currently used as a shooting range for rifles, pistols and shotguns. The pit has
realized a great deal of erosion through the years and on quiet days or days with southern winds the
range noise is an aggravation for all the neighbors. A very unsightly radio transmission tower also
exists on the upper plateau of this site.
The current owner, subject to approval of the final plat and Developer's Agreement for this site, will
discontinue all of the above undesirable uses and will agree to stabilize the mined area of the site.
There is believed to be some additional gravel on the western edge of the pit not located in the bluff
that once removed will allow the entire area to be graded for future land uses per the Comprehensive
Plan of the City of Chanhassen. As a part of the Developer's Agreement the City will approve a
grading and drainage plan for the lower plateau area. This plan will provide for the stabilization of the
existing mined area including appropriate erosion control and restoration measures as well as a plan to
control storm water.
THE PROPERTY'
The land area consists of approximately 131 acres of which 56 acres are in the upper plateau. 11 acres
of this upper area fronting on Pioneer Trail are within the City of Eden Prairie and 45 acres of the
upper area are in the City of Chanhassen. This area is guided low-density housing in both Cities.
The lower area consisting of approximately 75 acres is guided high-density housing, office/industrial
and commercial. This area has extensive frontage along U. S. Highway 212.
The Eastern portion of the site on the upper plateau abuts land in Eden Prairie that includes Settlers
Ridge, a residential community of 220 homes, and the lower mined area of the site abuts the beautiful
wooded Richard T. Anderson Conservation Area. The shooting range is adjacent to
existing Eden Prairie trails within the Conservation Area. The entire west boundary of the site is along
the Hennepin County Regional Railway Corridor.

PLAN:
The proposed plan is to only develop the upper plateau of the site into quality single family lots. The
lower area of the site, all located in Chanhassen, would be graded to balance the earthwork and to
provide the necessary erosion protection, restoration, and storm water ponding to prevent
further unsightly and detrimental erosion from the site as it currently exists. The lower area is
proposed to be developed per the Comprehensive Plan at a future date when utilities are available to
serve this area.
After extensive study by the staffs of both Cities it was determined that the only logical way to develop
the upper plateau would be to provide utilities from the City of Eden Prairie via Pioneer Trail and
existing water and sewer lines stubbed from Settlers Ridge to the East. To provide utilities now or
anytime in the future through the City of Chanhassen would be very, very costly and would do serious
damage to the wooded bluff areas of this site. The majority of the land in Chanhassen abutting this site
to the West is already developed into large estate type lots with private sewer and water systems. The
homeowners in this area may not need or want public utilities from the City of Chanhassen until some
unknown time in the future and even at that time it would be extremely difficult to cross the Hennepin
County Regional Railway Corridor with these utilities. Upon approval a Joint Powers Agreement will
be in place to reimburse the City of Eden Prairie for the utility services to the upper area lots located in
Chanhassen
Chanhassen will be able to develop the lower area of the Moon Valley Property when utilities are
scheduled for that area.
Access to the proposed lots in the upper area will be from the North off Pioneer Trail and from the East
using the existing dead ended street Explorer Trail built in Settlers Ridge. Due to the existing wooded
bluff and nearly 200 feet of elevation difference between the upper and lower parcels no road system is
proposed as a connection to the South.
Specifically the plan will be to develop lots that will compliment the existing homes to the East in
Eden Prairie and to the West and North in Chanhassen. The lots will be designed to accommodate
custom homes. Build out of the 61 lots is proposed over a 3-5 year time period depending on market
conditions.
The entrance off'Pioneer Trail "Settlers West Road" will be unique with the enhancement and
restoration of existing wetlands located on each side of the current field drive. A pleasant, meandering
road will traverse the site southerly terminating with two Cul De Sacs serving several lots with
spectacular views overlooking the wooded bluff and the entire Minnesota River
Valley. The streets will be public and will be maintained by the respective municipality in which they
are geographically located. The future homeowner's children will attend the schools based on the
boundaries of existing school districts.
Thirteen home sites will be located in the City of Eden Prairie and forty-eight home sites will be
located in the City of Chanhassen.
Extensive studies have been completed regarding trees, topography, bluffs, utility service, wetlands,
and storm water. Through the development review and approval process we will work with both
Settlers West

Cities to meet the Cities' goals in all of these areas while providing quality home sites for the future
residents.
Pemtom's goal is to exceed the expectations of both Cities and create a long-term asset to the
surrounding neighbors and community as a whole. We respectfully request your approval of this
outstanding new neighborhood.

REQUEST: 1.
Zoning District Change form Rural to R 1-13.5 on 11.07 acres.
.
Preliminary Plat of 11.07 acres into 10 lots and 3 outlots
BACKGROUND
The Comprehensive Guide Plan shows the site as low density residential for up to 2.5 units per
acre. The site is zoned Rural. Surrounding zoning is RM-6.5 to the northeast and R1-13.5 to the
southeast and south. The property abuts Pioneer Trail to the north and the City of Chanhassen to
the west.
The entire project is approximately 131 acres. The southwest 120 acres of the project is within
the City of Chanhassen.
PRELIMINARY PLAT
The proposal is to rezone the 11.07 acre site from Rural to RI-13.5.
The preliminary plat shows the subdivision of 11.07 acres into ten lots and three outlots. Lot sizes
range between 14,279 sq. ft. and 25,790 sq. ft. exceeding the minimum required lot size of 13,500
sq. ft. in the R 1-13.5 Zoning District. The lots meet the dimensional and frontage requirements of
the R 1-13.5 Zoning District. Outlot A and C are wetland and ponding areas. Oulot E is identified
as Park.

Re' Proposed Settlers West Development
Mr. Generous'
Thank you for sending a copy of the second preliminary development plan for Settlers West.
The SWCD has reviewed the plan from Sathre-Bergquist, dated 03/24/04 for sediment and
erosion control. Please review the following comments and suggestions.
Sediment Control
1. Silt fence is needed at stormwater pond HWL once the ponds are final grade and stabilized
with mulch and seed or blanket and seed.
2. After stabilization of slopes adjacent to bluff areas and prior to home building activities (such
as excavating for foundations) the builders should install silt fence or other perimeter control
(snow fence) to protect the temporary stabilization methods and final grade elevations. Often,
the spoil from foundations will be spread on the lot and may alter the final grade elevations. Due
to the sensitivity and minute elevation differences needed for drainage along the bluff areas, the
final grade and erosion protection should be protected from disturbance and home buildino=
activities.
Erosion Control
Slope stabilization plans are still needed for the storm sewer connection in the southwest area of
the site. Erosion blanket, shade tolerant seed mix and fiber rolls are recommended to promote
vegetation growth and temporarily stabilize the exposed slope. Similar measures are needed
should the 20-foot maintenance access be developed.
If there are any questions please call the SWCD office.

Hennepin County Plat No. 2792
Review and Recommendations
April 8, 2004
Minnesota Statutes 505.02, 505.03, and 462.358, Plats and Surveys, allow up to 30 days for county review of
preliminary plats abutting county roads. A complete submittal package was received on March 10, 2004 and the
Plat Review Committee reviewed the plat at its regular meeting on March 16. The development proposal has
been under discussion for some time, and our initial reviews occurred in the closing months of 2003. In
addition, in February, a concept layout was prepared by Sather-Bergquist, Inc. to respond to County and City
requests for additional information regarding the roadway horizontal and vertical alignment. We provided
initial comments to the City on February 25, 2004 this correspondence is attached.
The following comments are provided for your consideration.
Future County Roadway hnprovements
· CSAH-1 is programmed for a future provisional project (CP-9620) in the 2004-2008 County, Capital
Improvements Program (CIP). Provisional means that this project does not currently have programmed
funding- it is included in the program subject to f~ture approval for federal funding or in the event that
state aid funds become available. The project limits are from the west County Limits to just west of the
western junction with CSAH-4.
· Based on our most recent traffic projections to the year 2020, CSAH-1 will eventually need to be
upgraded to a multi-lane facility. Traffic volumes are currently about 8-16:000 ADT in this section, and
they are anticipated to groxv to about 20,000 ADT by 2020.
· CSAH-1 is identified as a future bicycle route in both the Henncpin County Bicycle Transportation Plan
and the Eden Prairie Comprehensive Park and Open Space Plan.
Right-of-way Dedication Needs
· The developer's consultant Sather-Bergquist, Inc. showed the County recommended 60-foot half right-
of-way on their February 11, 2004 concept layout. This is satisfactory to Hennepin County and should
be adequate to provide for the above mentioned future improvements.
,4ccess management
· We are willing to approve a new street entrance as proposed on the February 11, 2004 concept layout.
An exception to the County Access Spacing Guidelines is being granted tbr two reasons: 1) a reasonable
alternative does not exist for access to this development, and 2) the consultant has provided intbrmation
that a sale roadway design with adequate sight distances can be provided with the addition of a
westbound left turn lane on CSAH-1.
· The concept layout will need to be refined to reflect desired geometric dimensions, and the sight-
distance measurement will need to be corrected to correspond to AASHTO height-of-eye dimensions.
The revised layout will be required as part of the entrance permit ~br the new street.

Ms. Danette Moore, City of Eden Prairie
April 8, 20O4
Please inform the developer that all proposed construction within county right of way requires an approved
Hennepin County permit prior to beginning construction. This includes, but is not limited to driveway and street
access, drainage and utility construction, trail development, and landscaping. The appropriate tbrms can be
obtained by contacting Dave Zetterstrom, Entrance Permit Coordinator at 763-745-7643.
Please direct any response to Bob Byers at 763-745-7633.

Re' Settlers West- Preliminary Site Plan
Dear Mr. Generous:
The Hennepin County Regional Railroad Authority (HCRRA) owns the Hopkins
to Chaska rail corridor starting from approximately at Trunk Hwy. 212 in the City
of Chanhassen. HCRRA has permitted the Three Rivers Park District to
construct and operate a recreational trail at the center of the corridor.
The proposed Setters West development abuts HCRRA's corridor on the east
side and on the south of Pioneer Trail.
HCRRA staff have reviewed the preliminary plans for the proposed Settlers West
development and have no objections to the plans. HCRRA staff especially
appreciate that much of the storm water run-off from the proposed development
area will be diverted southerly instead of entering the corridor north of Pioneer
trail.
HCRRA anticipates granting the developer permits for two storm water drainage
structures, and a connector trail, upon approval of final engineering plans.
If you have any questions, please contact me at 612-348-9265. Thanks.

RE: Settlers West- Preliminary Plan Submittal
CITY OF Oi'tANH^8$EN
RECEIVED
MAR g 4. 2004
CHANHASSEN PLANNING DEPT
Dear Ms. Kate Aanenson,
Please accept the submitted plans as part of the Preliminary Plat submittal process for the City
of Chanhassen. We've incorporated a great deal of thought and input from both project
consultants and the City's staff and feel we have demonstrated much sensitivity to addressing
their concerns. As you are probably aware, the one major issue - the access to the county road
- has been addressed, and seems to be moving forward finally.
The project has certainly proved a challenge with what I'd consider a plethora of minor issues.
However, the two most prominent issues that we felt needed to be revisited for Chanhassen
staff were bluff protection and tree preservation. That being said, our approach has been to
reduce grading activity by lowering the fills in the southern portion of the site. Full basements
and look-out style home sites have replaced the previous design where many of the home sites
were walk-outs. We tried to match grade with the proposed road profile and the result is less
excavation and more tree preservation. In addition, canopy coverage has been recalculated
taking into account the trees on the existing slopes. Preserving much of the existing trees
stands and trees located within the bluff limits has resulted in no required tree replacement. A
minimum of one overstory tree is proposed within the front yard of each lot with additional
landscaping proposd in the common areas.
As discussed previously in our March 3rd meeting, some slopes in the Outlot F area (formerly
Outlot C) may not strictly meet the bluff ordinance definitions. We still propose to be sensitive to
these slopes as well as the existing tree stands, and as such, do not propose to grade beyond
the demarcated top of slope in this area. We're seeking some flexibility on the part of the City
for allowing grading a portion of Pond 2 within the no-impact zone. The alternatives would force
us to either reduce already minimal backyard space from several lots or reduce pond storage
volume. We don't believe that taking either course of action would benefit the slopes located
along the rail corridor. In fact, with the aid of Braun Intertech, we're investigating the possibility
that we are contributing to a safer condition by removing historically unstable soil mass from the
edge of the trail corridor and replacing it with less and lighter material (water). With Braun's
assistance, we're also evaluating options for restoration and/or preservation of the heavily
eroded slopes. As a part of our grading contract, the existing trash and debris that has been
deposited in the bluff ravines over the past years will be removed and hauled off site.
In an effort to reduce the volume of water sheeting over the edge of the bluffs, we provided
storm sewer collection points along swales located in the backyards. The ability to do this is
more feasible having been given the opportunity to investigate a reduction in right-of-way width.
Therefore, a reduced right-of-way from the City standard is proposed and is shown herein as
being 50' in width. The reduction is also proposed in the interest of continuity with Eden Prairie's
standard 50 foot right-of-way. By doing so, we were able to pull the grading activities and house
locations away from the top of bluff and achieve the required lot areas entirely outside of the bluff
limits.
A 150' Horizontal curve is proposed south of Pond-2. The sharper radius works best for the site
considering the steep ravine located just inside the curve and the steep slopes that traverse the
entire western limits of the site. The City's standard is 180 feet for a 30 mph road. It is not our
intent to have traffic on an elongated cul-de-sac traveling at such speeds and believe that the
tighter radius not only has traffic calming effects but also adds character to movement through
this portion of the development.
A trail connection both to the county trail corridor defining our western limits, and a proposed
mulch trail to the east connecting with the Richard T. Anderson Conservation Area have been
added. Both connections are tied together with a 5' concrete sidewalk running along the one
side of the street.
Our intent is to provide a storm water outlet from pond 2 and 3 sufficiently sized to
accommodate a piped emergency overflow (EOF) in the event of a large rain event (12" in 24
HR). We will provide details of the sizing in the final plans. EOF's have been set in areas where
piping to a pond is not possible or feasible, and sufficient storage doesn't exist near the Iow floor
opening during significant rain events if the basin becomes plugged. These are all small
localized drainage ares.
We're proposing a storm water discharge route to tie into an existing 18" steel pipe at the
southwest corner of Outlot F. We have consulted with both Three Rivers Park and Hennepin
County Rail Authority on just how to proceed with this design. We feel there is opportunity in
this design to benefit all parties; For Chanhassen, this approach will save far more trees and be
much less invasive towards any sensitive steep slope or bluff areas than the previous design.
And for the Rail Authority, we can mitigate an extremely eroded outlet area and provide a more
efficient inlet. In a meeting held on March 23 with the staff from the Rail Authority, the design
was well received with no objections. The remaing issue deals with maintenance permits
between the City of Chanhassen and the Rail Authority.
We've flagged a route on-site that shows the desired storm outlet route down the slope and into
the bottom basin of Outlot F. We also flagged a separate trail that would enable access to the
outlet for servicing purposes. Both the trail and outlet pipe location were selected such that the
occurrence of negative impacts to trees would be kept to a minimum. Tree protection fencing
will be used in all instances where tree preservation is desired as part of the final design.
Lastly, mitigation for Wetland filling is proposed to occur in Eden Prairie with Public Value
Credits in both municipalities making up the remainder of the required 2'1 replacement. We will
seek PVC's through a combination of treatment ponds and buffer creation.
If you have any questions on this matter, or need additional information, please feel free to
contact me at (952) 476-6000.
Sincerely,
Sathre~- .quist,

Mary and Randy,
Bob Byers of Hennepin County called me this morning and told me that the County is in agreement with the
location of the proposed Settlers West Road access to Pioneer Trail and is in general agreement with the layout
plan shown on the Sather Bergquist plans. County personnel reviewed the layout in the office and in addition,
County staff made a field visit to verify current lane widths and striping. Based on this review the County will
recommend some "minor" adjustments to the plan (e.g., lengths of painted turn lanes, tapers, possible shoulder
widening, etc.), but will not require anything of a major nature.
The County has received the submittal package from the City of Eden Prairie and the County considers this a
complete submittal. The County will proceed with their plat review and as part of that process will provide the
more detailed comments on the exact elements of the Settlers West/Pioneer Trail intersection.
Thank you for your help in developing the intersection layout. If you have any questions on the County's
comments, please contact me at your earliest convenience.

Subject'
Development Review Committee
Engineering Division
March 11, 2004
Settlers West
The following are comments by the Engineering Division in review of a development proposal for
Settlers West located west of Settlers Ridge. The proposed project is located both within Eden Prairie
and Chanhassen. The plans were prepared by Sathre Berquist, Inc. and are dated "received" March 8,
2004.
PLAT
Clarification regarding the ownership of Outlots A and B within Eden Prairie should be provided.
Clarification regarding property lines between Lots 54 & 55 is needed. The property line should follow
the boundary between Hennepin and Carver County. A trail easement will be needed.
SPECIAL ASSESSMENTS
This property will be subject to trunk sewer and watermain assessments with this prqject. Based on the
preliminary plat dated 1-16-04, 8.36 acres will be assessed for trunks at the 2004 rate of $5,510/acre for
a total assessment of $46,063.60. A special assessment agreement will be needed.
GRADING AND DRAINAGE
Pond I does not appear to have a 10' 1 bench. This bench should be incorporated into the gradino=panl .
The discharge pipe t¥om Wetland C should be extended under thc proposed trail.
The rear yard areas of Lots 13-29 drain towards the bluffs and eventually into Eden Prairie. The
revised plans indicate the use of catch basins and draintile in the rear yard areas of Lots 16 & 17 picking
up drainage from the rear yard areas of Lots 14-20 and discharging into a4jacent Outlot (27 which
contains existing steep slopes and bluffs discharging into Eden Prairie. It appears that the rear yard
elevations of these lots as well as a~jacent Lots 21-29 are above the proposed normal and high water
levels of Pond 2. Storm sewer and catch basins should be constructed in the rear yard areas of the above
mentioned lots bringing the flow towards the street and into Pond 2. Also, in a previous meeting with
the Engineer, a "lip" behind the swales and storm sewer system was suggested to be incorporated into
the grading plan. It is unclear from the cun'ent grading plan if this has been done. A detail should be
provided.
The emergency overland from Pond 3 is in the rear yard areas of Lots 1~.-° 16, eventually discharoino= = into
Outlot C. A minimum of 2' of tYeeboard should be provided to provide an added measure of protection
from an emergency overflow occumng (based on the proposed HWL of Pond 3 the emergency overflow
elevation would then be at an elevation of 892.0).
Drainage and utility easements will be needed over the area of Lot 7 for which the emergency overflow
from the adjacent wetland mitigation area within Settlers Ridge discharges. This elevation will be
critical.
The project area (specifically areas a4iacent to the bluffs) should be evaluated by the consultant
engineer for areas of existing active erosion problems. If there is active erosion occun'ing, these areas
should be identified and repaired as part of the prqject. Due to the current time of year and weather
conditions, this evaluation should take place after snowmelt. A remediation plan will be needed and
required through the Developers Agreement based on thc site analysis.
UTILITIES
A sanitary sewer manhole should be placed at the Eden Prairie/Chanhassen border.
The sanitary sewer and water connections to the existing utilities at the east end of the project a~jacent
to Pioneer Trail should remain in the slope and upland areas rather than cutting through the wetland
areas.
STREETS
The revised plans as submitted have been forwarded to Hennepin County for their review and comment
regarding the proposed access and the preliminary plat. A letter addressed to Sathre-Berquist (attached)
regarding the proposed access has already been forwarded by Engineering regarding the access plan.
The revised plans indicate some horizontal curves in the street immediately south of Pioneer Trail
adjacent to the wetlands. Alternate alignments of Settlers West Road should be considered and
presented that would improve the street geometries while minimizing wetland impacts. A minimum
roadway radius of 300 feet should be incorporated into the design. In addition, the roadway approach to
Pioneer Trail should be constructed at a 90 degree angle for both existing and future conditions (Pioneer
Trail widening). Consideration should also be given to the soil conditions of the underlying soils within
the proposed road bed regarding possible correction needs.
TRAILS AND SIDEWALKS
The proposed trail from Settlers West Road to the Hennepin County Regional Trail should be located
entirely within one community; in the location currently shown the majority of the trail is within
Chanhassen. The trai should be shifted entirely to Chanhassen.
The proposed sidewalk adjacent to Settlers West Road should be extended north to Pioneer Trail.
The 8' trail from Settlers Court to the boundary between Eden Prairie and Chanhassen should be
constructed as a bituminous trail to the property line.
COOPERATIVE AGREEMENTS:
INFRASTRUCTURE
CONSTRUCTION/MAINTANENCE
OF PUBLIC
The proposed project presents some challenges to both the cities of Chanhassen and Eden Prairie in
regards to handling the construction and maintenance aspect of the public infrastructure that would
serve this project. At this point, a basic premise of the project by Eden Prairie staff is "what lies within
each individual city will be constructed to that city's standards and requirements and will also be
maintained by that same city". This seems to work fairly well with the streets and utility aspects of the
project with the addition of the utility elements called out in the utility section of this memo. A method
regarding metering and water billing will also be needed. Snowplowing of the streets may need
additional attention. With the proposed street layout of the project a turn-around location at the
boundary between the Eden Prairie and Chanhassen is not provided. To completely adhere to the "each
his own" concept of maintenance a turn-around would need to be incorporated into the plan. However,
Eden Prairie is willing to entertain other solutions that would be agreeable to both Eden Prairie and
Chanhassen.
WETLANDS
The wetland buffer setback is 25 feet and the structure setback is 15 feet for all wetlands, mitigation
wetlands and any stormwater ponds used for Public Value Credit (PVC) within the project site. The
wetland buffers must be shown on the Grading Plan as well as the Wetland Plan sheets. The wetland
buffer and structure setback widths are not clearly marked on the plans and are difficult to follow. If an
Alternative Wetland Buffer Setback is required, a written request for the alternative must be provide in
accordance with City Code Section 11.51. The proposed average wetland buffer width information
must be provided on the Wetland Plan.
Wetland impacts are shown on the plans. A draft Wetland Mitigation Plan must be provided tbr review.
This would include information such as proposed wetland replacement types, planting and seeding
plans, and the amount and locations of New Wetland Credit (NWC) and Public Value Credit (PVC)
provided on site. This entire wetland and mitigation area must be placed under a conservation easement
as well as a drainage and utility easement. These areas must be indicated on the plan sheets.

Re: Preliminary Plat Proposal (Incomplete)
Settlers West- CSAH-1 near western County Limits
Eden Prairie / Chanhassen
County Plat Review No. 2792
This letter provides initial comments regarding the proposed Settlers West Residential Development. We hope this
correspondence will help clarify what information the County needs to complete the review, and outlines the
primary issues that we believe need resolution. At this point in time, the preliminary plat has been determined
incomplete by Hennepin County, and the 30-day review period provided under State Statutes 505.03 has not begun.
It is our understanding that the City of Eden Prairie has also determined that the submittal is incomplete; we do not
know Chanhassen's disposition of this proposal.
Background
· The development proposal was originally submitted to us by the City of Chanhassen as a preliminary
plat on January 22. At that time, the submittal was determined to be incomplete since the submittal
was missing information regarding the adjacent county roadway as well as dimensions to nearby
features such as acCess drives and the bridge over Riley Creek (as per State Statutes 505.02). The mail-
back card and brochure containing our Plat Submittal Checklist were sent to the City to assist the
developer in providing a complete submittal.
· Follow-up information was then received on February 17 from the City of Eden Prairie which
provided some of the missing data from the developer (Sathre-Bergquist, Inc.). However, critical
dimensions regarding right-of-way widths, location of the road within the right-of-way, and distance
measurements to nearby features were still missing.
Items needed for completion of the Preliminary Plat Submittal
· State Statutes 505.02 and 505.03 specifically list the requirements for preliminary plats. The County
Plat Review Process brochure (attached) summarizes these elements as part of the plat submittal
checklist.
· As State Statutes 505.02, Subdivision 1, states: the preliminary plat must include "...All rivers,
streams, creeks, lakes, ponds, swamps, and all public highways and thoroughfares laid out, opened, or
traveled (existing before the platting) shall be correctly located and plainly shown and designated on
the plat." This means that the existing CSAH-1 rights-of-way, the existing roadway centerline of the
paved area, and the locations of other nearby driveways, street intersections and access points should
be shown on a site plan map with scaled dimensions.
The plat review brochure also describes what items Hennepin County examines during the evaluation
of the plat. Since this submittal involves the request for a new access to CSAH-1, information will be
necessary to evaluate entering, stopping and left turn sight distances- otherwise the developer will
need to provide supporting analysis that shows that these distances are provided. Therefore data on the
CSAH-1 vertical and horizontal profiles will be needed and the elevation of the proposed new entrance.

Issues to be addressed in the Preliminary Plat
Right-of-way Dedication
Hennepin County will be recommending to the City that the developer dedicate right-of-way along
CSAH-1 consistent with a future typical roadway section. In addition, this road is designated for a
furore bikeway in both the Hennepin County Bicycle Transportation Plan, and the Eden Prairie
Comprehensive Park and Open Space Plan. The recommendation will likely be for the dedication
of right-of-way sufficient for a future 4-lane divided roadway with trail (see attached typical
section). A recommendation for a total 60-foot half-width from the CSAH-1 centerline would be
common for this situation (see attached typical section).
Proposed Access to CSAH-1
We have concerns with the proposed street access to CSAH-1 at this location. Hennepin County
plans to carefully evaluate the proposed access spacing, sight distances, and auxiliary lane needs
prior to approval of this new access to CSAH-1.
Responsibility for analysis attd mitigation options
We view the issues on 'CSAH-1 to be development-driven since they are a result of the proposed plat and
the access request. If enough information is provided to us to evaluate the access, we can offer some
suggestions to the City and the developer regarding various design options. It will be the developer's
responsibility to devise an intersection design and any needed mitigation on CSAH-1 to demonstrate that
this access will not degrade the operations and safety of CS AH-1. Any modifications to CSAH-1 may need
to last for 10+ years since Hennepin County does not have any funded improvements programmed in its 5-
year Capital Improvement Program for this section of CSAH-1.
I have attached information regarding our plat review process, guidelines, and typical roadway sections that should
help define what Hennepin County will be using in evaluating the preliminary plat and the access request. If you have
any questions, please call me at 763-745-7633.

Importance: High
Matt,
I am unable to attend the public hearing but I would like to put in writing my concerns
and suggestions that I expressed to you on the matter of the additional development
adjacent to Settler's Ridge.
My first point, and the most important, is that there are already a large number of
children and adults who must dodge on bike and on foot between the high-speed traffic on
Pioneer Trail to get to the Regional Trail and/or Riley Park. This is very dangerous
during the morning and evening rush hour, which is usually the time period most people are
out and looking to us the trail and park. There is considerable use of the trail and park
once school is out for the summer. Not only is the crossing dangerous but also the
shoulders and bridge deck are narrow and poorly maintained making riding a bike on a rough
shoulder in proximity to high-speed motor traffic a potential tragedy. I would like the
development plan to be amended to include a trail access south of Pioneer trail to the
Regional Trail. If it can not be done without walking or biking on Pioneer trail then I
would like to see an access to the immediate West of the bridge on the South side of the
road as the next best alternative. I believe that if some one from Parks or City
Engineering would sit for a few hours and watch the kids cross the highway on a Saturday
morning in the spring or summer they would clearly understand the necessity.
My second comment is about the current and new proposed access road to Pioneer Trail. I
know that Settlers Drive (T intersection with Pioneer
Trail) and the proposed new road are both in Eden Prairie. However, I think Chanhassen in
cooperation with Eden Prairie and the counties you should study the traffic volume and
patterns before making any approvals of the plan. I can tell you that currently it is not
an easy task to make a right turn onto Pioneer Trail from Settlers Drive during the
morning rush hour. And I can tell you that I consider it one of the most dangerous left
hand turns at an uncontrolled intersection I have experienced due to traffic
volume and rate of speed. A left hand turn from P~oneer Trail onto
Settlers Drive in the evening rush hour is even more dangerous as there is very limited
sight line of on coming traffic, relatively heavy volume of traffic at high speed, and the
problem to looking into the sun low in the western sky. City engineers at Eden Prairie
told me that the sight line meets the state requirement. Personally I do not believe that
a motorcycle traveling from West to East on Pioneer Trial would be visible to cars down
over the hillcrest making a left hand turn. Add the low sun in the afternoon and I think
this intersection deserves more study. The addition of a new intersection a few hundreds
yards to the west of Settlers Drive (while required due to increased volume with the
addition of 61 homes, will actually compound the problem unless there is some sort of
traffic control implemented in my opinion and experience.
Thank you for placing this on the record.
