SUMMARY OF REQUEST: The developer is proposing a High School Campus.
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 has limited discretion in approving or denying conditional use permits, based on whether or not
the proposal meets the conditional use permit standards outlined in the Zoning Ordinance. If the City
finds that all the applicable conditional use permit standards are met, the permit must be approved. This
is a quasi judicial decision.
The City's discretion in approving or denying a site plan is limited to whether or not the proposed
project complies with Zoning Ordinance requirements. If it meets these standards, the City must then
approve the site plan. This is a quasi-judicial decision.

The City’s discretion in approving or denying a wetland alteration permit is limited to whether or
not 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.
The City’s discretion in approving or denying a variance is limited to whether or not the
proposed project meets the standards in the Zoning Ordinance for a variance. The City has a
relatively high level of discretion with a variance because the applicant is seeking a deviation
from established standards. This is a quasi-judicial decision. Notice of this public hearing has
been mailed to all property owners in excess of 500 feet.
PROPOSAL/SUMMARY
The new Chanhassen High School will be constructed for 2000 students, grades 9-12. The total
area of the building is approximately 406,000 square feet which is slightly smaller than the
recently expanded Chaska High School (415,000 square feet). When completed, Independent
School District 112 will have two high schools with a total district high school capacity of 4000
students. The building is designed with three distinct functional components – Academic,
Performing Arts, and Physical Education/Athletic – around a central commons space that
contains the primary public entrance, student dining, student support services, and building
administration.
A neighborhood meeting was held on January 18, 2007 at the Chanhassen Recreation Center.
Approximately 20 residents attended the meeting. An overview of the proposed High School
was presented including a history of how we got to this point, a summary of the public hearing
process and a presentation of the site and building plans. Brick and pre-cast with a stone colored
veneer concrete are the predominate building materials.
Issues that were raised:
How does the development blend into the wetland to the east?
The proposed building site will
be approximately 50 feet above the wetland. The slopes are proposed to be seeded with a prairie
grass mix similar to what was used in the City’s wetland restoration project in the Bluff Creek
Corridor.
Where will retaining walls be located, how will they look and how large will they be?
A
suggestion was made that something architectural is expected by neighbors. Staff directed the
developer to increase the plantings east of the retaining walls to help soften them.
A question was raised about how they could be assured that what was proposed, both
financially and visually, would be ultimately built.
They were several comments about students parking in adjacent neighborhoods, Bluff Creek
Estates, Stone Creek and Creekside, and then accessing the High School site
. This issue will
have to be monitored to determine if it becomes a problem.

There was concern that the erosion control fencing will not be removed when the project is
complete.
The contractor will have the erosion control fencing removal included as part of their
contract.
Questions were raised about bus noise.
It was pointed out that 1) there is little noise; and 2) bus
operations are during a limited time during the day for 15 – 30 minutes in the morning and
afternoon.
Questions about the football stadium operations and lighting.
It was pointed out that the
stadium would be in a bowl, rather than above grade level. Use of lighting will on a limited
basis.
Questions were raised about improvements to the street network, particularly Lyman
Boulevard, but also complaints about existing improvements to Audubon Road north of
Lyman Boulevard.
The Cities of Chanhassen and Chaska and Carver County, in consultation
with the School District, are discussing roadway improvements. However, these specific roads
are beyond the scope of the school project itself.
The site is located south of the Twin Cities and Western Railroad and the Stone Creek
neighborhood (residential single-family), west of Bluff Creek and the Bluff Creek Estates
neighborhood (residential single-family) as well as the Sun Ridge neighborhood (residential large
lot single-family), and north and east of Lyman Boulevard. Chaska's electrical substation lies
between the school's south property line and the intersection of Lyman Boulevard and Audubon
Road. To the northeast is the Chanhassen Business Center, an office/industrial park. West of
Lyman Boulevard is a Chaska industrial park.
The majority of the property was farmed for agricultural purposes with the highest point of the
site and the steep grades along its east boundary area made up of native grasses and trees. A
fairly significant wooded area lies along the south edge of the property. The old farm
homestead, with some remnants still remaining, lies in the southwest corner of the site just
opposite Hazeltine Lake Drive. Existing wetlands predominantly lie along the east edge of the
property with localized fingers extending at the north and south edges of the property toward the
west. Approximately 25 acres of wetland areas exist within the property limits.
The topography of the property varies in elevation from 985 at the lowest point (east) to 1075 at
the top of the grassy height in the center of the site. Because the center of the site is at the
highest elevation, drainage typically is directed toward the extents of the property eventually
reaching either the Bluff Creek wetlands to the east or to the Lyman Boulevard ditch to the west
and south. Drainage immediately south of the high point of the site will be carried to Bluff
Creek via a fairly significant natural gorge immediately north of the electrical substation.
Water is available at the northwest the northeast corners of the site. A 12-inch water main
extends approximately 200 feet south of the northeast property corner where it terminates.
Water off the northwest corner of the property actually lies north of the railroad tracks and at the
intersection of Lyman Boulevard and Galpin Boulevard. Sanitary (trunk) sewer is located along
the length of the east property line and connects the neighborhood to the north to a point
extending south of the Lyman Boulevard and Audubon Road intersection.

The new high school campus includes parking for approximately 1,000 cars, bus parking for
approximately 30 buses, and overflow and event parking for an additional 140 vehicles. Three
entrance drives off Lyman Boulevard provide access to the school site. The south entrance drive
is at the intersection of Lyman Boulevard and Audubon Road and will primarily support bus and
event parking. The entrance drive at the southwest corner of the site at the intersection of Lyman
Boulevard and Lake Hazeltine Drive will serve for limited ingress/egress. The entrance drive
west of the school will serve as the main entrance for students, visitors and service deliveries.
With the existence of the Magellan gas pipeline north of the school and north parking lot, the
athletic facilities find themselves north of the pipeline easement. The exception to this is the
proposed tennis courts and soccer fields which lie just south of the Magellan easement and are
located northeast and northwest of the building, respectively. Softball and baseball facilities are
located in the northwest quadrant of the site and are tucked between the gas main and railroad
tracks. The running track and field stadium, which is aligned in a northwest-southeast direction,
will be carved into the hillside to allow the home bleachers to transition from an upper spectator
plaza down to the field level. Home bleachers for 1,600 spectators and visitor bleachers for 800
spectators are provided. Field events, including high jump, long/triple jump, pole vault, shot put,
and discus are located along the east and southeast corners of the running track. Practice fields
will be developed in the northeast quadrant of the site and tucked between the railroad tracks and
existing wetland areas.
The Office Institutional (OI) District limits building height to two stories. The proposed school is
three stories by City definition. (If the height (H) of the basement is more than 12 feet at any point,
or if the height (H) is more than six feet for more than 50 percent of the perimeter of the building,
then it is considered a story.) The lowest level (basement) of the school building has a height of 20
feet. Therefore, a variance is required from the OI district regulations. Due to the significant
elevation changes on the property, staff encouraged the school district to develop the site with a
walkout-style building. This design maintains more of the site topography by using the building
itself to accommodate elevation changes than would be possible with a typical, i.e., flattening of the
site, design. However, it also leads to the need for a variance. Staff recommends the granting of the
variance for a three-story building.
This parcel is partially encumbered by the Bluff Creek Overlay District. Section 20-1255 of the
Chanhassen City Code requires a conditional use permit for all development within the Bluff
Creek Corridor. The applicant has proposed the location of the southerly driveway access
encroaching in the primary zone. The encroachment into the primary zone requires the approval
of a variance. Due to the location of the intersection of Lyman Boulevard and Audubon Road,
the location of this driveway is fixed and the encroachment in to the primary zone cannot be
avoided.
The Environmental Assessment Worksheet provided information about the project that may have
the potential for significant environmental effects. The EAW was prepared by the Responsible
Governmental Unit or its agents to determine whether an Environmental Impact Statement
should be prepared. The most significant potential issues associated with the proposed project
are:

Traffic:
1. There will be temporary impacts to vehicle traffic due to construction-related
activity during excavation, construction materials delivery and storage, and tie-ins to existing
subgrade utilities. These predicted vehicle traffic impacts will last for much of the
construction life of the project, and will be geographically associated with the phasing of
construction. Some of the potential impacts can be mitigated through implementation of City
ordinances relating to hours and days of operation, noise, nuisance conditions, etc.
Post-construction traffic impacts are anticipated after the project is constructed, and are
detailed in the traffic study. These impacts are anticipated to involve slight decreases in
Level of Services (LOS) in the project vicinity. Plans for mitigation of these impacts include
adding turn lanes and signalization of nearby intersections and are included as conditions of
approval.
No additional traffic impacts or issues have been identified that require further investigation.
Wetland Impacts
2.: A total of 1.66 acres of wetlands are proposed to be filled as part of the
project. Mitigation measures will include on-site replacement (new wetland creation, as well
as public value credits) according to MN Wetland Conservation Act rules, which are
administered by the City of Chanhassen.
No additional wetland impacts or issues have been identified that require further
investigation.
Storm Water Runoff
3.: There is potential for impacts to Bluff Creek and associated wetlands
from temporary and permanent storm water runoff. Potential impacts from temporary storm
water runoff include those from sediment loading during and immediately after construction.
These potential impacts will be mitigated through MPCA storm water and local permitting.
Potential impacts from permanent storm water runoff include those from performance of
storm water engineering design and construction. These potential impacts will be mitigated
through local review of design plans, as well as on-site inspections during construction.
No additional storm water impacts or issues have been identified that require further
investigation.
Based on this review of the potential environmental impacts, the mitigation measures
incorporated in the site plan should address the impacts.
The proposed development, generally, complies with the city requirements and staff is
recommending approval of the project subject to the conditions of the staff report.

BACKGROUND
On December 11, 2006, the Chanhassen City Council approved an Interim Use Permit to grade
the site in preparation of development and a resolution of Negative Declaration of the Need for an
Environmental Impact Statement for the Chanhassen High School Campus.
On March 4, 2004, the Chanhassen City Council approved a Land Use Amendment to permit
Office/Industrial and Office/Institutional uses on the site.
REZONING
The applicant is requesting to rezone approximately 95 acres from A2, Agricultural Estate
District and PUD, Planned Unit Development to Office and Institutional District, OI. The project
consists of a High School campus. The proposed rezoning is consistent with the comprehensive
plan.
SITE PLAN
ARCHITECTURAL COMPLIANCE
The project is a new High School campus for Independent School District 112 consisting of a
three-story, 405,367 square-foot building, athletic fields, concession building, stadium,
storage/maintenance buildings and parking lots. The building is designed with three distinct
functional components – Academic, Performing Arts, and Physical Education/Athletic –
composed around a central commons space that contains the primary public entrance, student
dining, student support services, and building administration. The high school building is divided
into two sections separated by a main entrance corridor and commons area with classrooms located
on the southern half of the building and performing arts facilities, auditoriums and gymnasiums
located in the northern half of the building. The lowest floor area is 102,096 square feet. The main
(first) floor area is 197,174 square feet. The second floor is 92,043 square feet. The building
footprint is 235,907 square feet. The building exterior is highly articulated with multiple materials
and vertical and horizontal architectural elements.

Size portion Placement
The main entry to the building is located in the middle of the structure. The lower level provides
access for students from the bus drop-off to the east. The main entrance faces west, toward
Lyman Boulevard, and will be visible from the north and central access drives, and provides
access to students who drive or are dropped off as well as visitors to the school. Ground level of
a multi story is visually distinct from the upper stories through the use of materials, windows and
other architectural building elements. The public entrance to the building and central commons
faces west. The student bus entrance is on the east side of the building, also with access to the
central student commons, directly opposite the main public entrance.

Material and detail
Building materials are high quality and consist of brick, architectural pre-cast panels and glass
curtain walls and windows. The exterior building materials include two colors of brick and one
color of pre-cast stone. The two brick colors are composed horizontally to emphasize the
connection to the geology of the natural site and to emphasize the walk-out level on the east side.
The lighter-colored cast stone is integrated as vertical planar accents at the significant
architectural elements of the building: the entrance, the commons, the fly loft, the team resource
areas, and the science wing.
Color
The brick colors are coppertone velour (burnt red) and mountain shadow velour (grayish red).
The pre-cast concrete color is travertine texture (sand). The aluminum curtain wall is extra
dark/dark bronze. The pre-finished metal panels are charcoal gray.
Height and Roof Design
Height is limited to two stories in the Office and Institutional District. However, due to the type
and function of building as a school and the direction that the City provided to the school to
reduce site grading, the construction of a walkout-type building is warranted. Normally, the
lower basement level would not be included as a story. However, because the lower floor
elevation is more than 12 feet, it is by definition a story. It is reasonable to grant the variance to
permit a three-story building (see attached Findings of Fact and Recommendation for the
variance).
The proposed roof has significant and varied parapet and enclosure heights to create the vertical
articulation as part of the roof design required by city code. Mechanical equipment shall be
screened within enclosures.
Facade transparency
The westerly elevation is the only elevation directly viewable by the general public. This
building elevation is highly articulated with 50 percent of the elevation that is viewed by the
public incorporating transparent windows and or doors. Natural light is essential to the learning
environment. Windows are organized in a hierarchy of groupings and sizes from the punched
openings at each classroom, to the large storefront windows in the team resource areas, to the
clerestory windows and curtain walls that will flood the common areas of the building with
natural light and capture views of the natural wetland areas near the school.
Site Furnishing
Community features may include: landscaping, lighting, benches, tables and art. The school
district should add benches and tables to take advantage of the gathering areas, plazas and scenic
overlooks. Bicycle parking storage racks should also be provided on site.

At the top of retaining walls the developer is proposing the installation of 4-foot chain link
fences. Surrounding stadiums and ball fields are proposed 8-foot fences. The baseball backstop
is 18 feet tall. The softball backstop is 14 feet tall. The tennis court fence is 10 feet tall.
Loading areas, refuse area, etc.
Screening of service yards, refuse and waste removal, other unsightly areas and truck
parking/loading areas is accomplished through the location of these areas on the north and south
sides of the building. Enclosure walls are also provided around these areas to provide additional
screening.
Landscaping
Minimum landscaping requirements include 39,176 square feet of landscaped area around the
parking lot, 156 trees for the parking lot, and bufferyard plantings along property lines.
Applicant’s proposed landscaping as compared to the requirements for landscape area and
parking lot trees is shown in the following table.
Item Required Proposed
Vehicular use landscape area 39,176 sq. ft. 57,300 sq. ft.
Trees/ parking lot 156 overstory trees 134 overstory trees
North property line 43 overstory trees Existing mature tree line

South/West property line 40 overstory trees 43 overstory trees
Bufferyard B – 2030’ 80 understory trees 0 understory trees
120 shrubs 8 shrubs
4 tree seedlings
Prairie planting
The applicant does not meet minimum requirements for the parking lot plantings. The applicant
also does not meet quantity specific categories of bufferyard plantings; however, the proposed
plan does incorporate beneficial landscape elements such as native species and prairie plantings.
Staff recommends that the applicant increase plantings in order to meet minimum ordinance
requirements for parking lot plantings and the east buffer yard.
The applicant is proposing seedling plantings and prairie/native grass plantings. Staff
recommends that all deciduous seedlings be protected by tree shelter tubes. The tubes need to be
installed when the seedlings are planted and monitored throughout the next 3-5 years to insure
that the tubes are removed at the proper time. All of the seedlings are native species with the
exception of Black Hills spruce. Staff recommends that this conifer be changed to a native white
spruce. Also, the understory selections, ironwood and blue beech, are trees that grow naturally

in the shade of taller trees. Their placement in the landscape does not replicate this natural
habitat. Staff recommends that the understory seedlings be located among overstory deciduous
trees. Additionally, staff recommends larger quantities of seedlings in each grouping. The
prairie seeding will need ongoing maintenance and monitoring to insure successful establishment
of the plants and that weeds and other invasive plants are controlled.
Staff recommends that the columnar Norway maple listed in the plant schedule be replaced by a
different columnar tree such as Armstrong red maple, Autumn Spire red maple or even an
ornamental species. Staff also recommends that in the interest of long-term heath, all species of
ash be replaced with alternative species because of the impending threat of the emerald ash
borer.
Staff recommends that landscaping be increased at the base of the retaining walls along the east
property line to include shrubs, such as Chokeberry (Aronia), that are naturally spreading and
have wildlife benefits that would enhance the environment and provide further visual relief of the
wall expanse. Increasing the overstory and ornamental plant quantities would help add stronger
vertical relief as well. The applicant could also incorporate vines, such as Virginia creeper or
Boston ivy, on the walls to add color and interest.
Note: Several plant abbreviations are not noted in the plant schedule. They are CD – pagoda
dogwood, PN – Austrian pine, SR – ivory silk Japanese tree lilac.
Lot Frontage and Parking Location
The project fronts on Lyman Boulevard. Parking is distributed throughout the site with the
majority west and north of the building. Due to site topography, and the fact that this is a high
school with restricted access, it makes sense that the majority of the parking is located to the
north and west of the building. The southern access drive, entering the site from the
Lyman/Audubon intersection, will be used on a daily basis exclusively for student bus access.
Required Parking: Four per classroom or office (207 rooms or 828 spaces) plus one per 150
square feet of seating area within auditoriums (6,400 sq. ft. or 43 spaces). Total 871 spaces.
Proposed Parking: 920 spaces. In addition, there are 140 event parking stalls located to the east
of the building in the bus corral. Additional angled visitor parking (23) can be accommodated in
the drop-off access west of the building entrance. An alternate 48-stall south parking lot is
shown (sheet C6.1) for the access drive south of the building. As a comparison, there are 1,030
parking stalls at Chaska High School.

*The 40-foot setback is from the Bluff Creek Overlay District primary zone boundary.
LIGHTING/SIGNAGE
The developer is proposing a 27-foot light pole with a 3-foot concrete base for area lighting
within the parking lot. Single and double-headed light fixtures with square, shoebox type heads
are proposed. Plaza lighting in the stadium area is proposed on 15-foot poles. Walkway lighting
on 12-foot poles is proposed at the main building entrances with walkway lighting bollards along
sidewalks and alternate entrances. Walkway lighting has a 90-degree cutoff to limit light spilling
skyward.
Section 20-913 (e) prohibits lighting directed skyward except for lighting designed for
illuminating the United States of America flag. The developer is proposing spot lights for the
flags at the entrance to the building (type DD1 on sheet E010). Additionally, the developer is
proposing building façade flood lights (type DD on sheet E010) which will be directed skyward
to illuminate the building. The installation of such lighting requires a variance approval. Staff
believes that if architectural lighting is desired, then it could be installed on the building façade
and directed downward. Therefore, a variance should not be approved.
The developer shows a monument sign at the northwest entrance to the High School. This
monument may be a maximum of five feet in height with a display area of 24 square feet. If the
School district intends to install a motion sign, they will have to receive a separate conditional
use permit. A separate sign permit is required for the monument sign installation.

ACCESS
Access to the site is proposed via three driveways off Lyman Boulevard. The southerly access is
at the intersection of Lyman Boulevard and Audubon Road. The middle access is at the
intersection of Lyman Boulevard and Lake Hazeltine Drive. The northerly access is
approximately 800 feet south of the Twin Cities and Western Railroad. Pedestrian access is
provided at each of the driveway entrances as well as a connection to the Bluff Creek trail in the
northeast corner of the site. Pedestrian ramps shall be provided at all curbs where the
sidewalk/trails connect.
A traffic study was included in the Environmental Assessment Worksheet identifying projected
traffic volumes and analyzing the proposed access points onto Lyman Boulevard. Carver County
has reviewed the proposal and has given preliminary approval of the accesses. The applicant
must obtain permits from Carver County to construct the accesses.
Carver County has begun background studies for the future widening of Lyman Boulevard.
Design details are not available. However, based on the projected traffic volumes, Lyman
Boulevard will likely be reconstructed as a four-lane divided roadway. It is anticipated that the
widening of Lyman Boulevard will take place prior to the high school opening in Fall 2009.
The existing one-half right of way of Lyman Boulevard adjacent to the property is 50 feet wide.
The school district will dedicate an additional 10 feet as a roadway, drainage and utility
easement. The 60-foot one-half right of way will accommodate the future widening of Lyman
Boulevard.
The northernmost access is approximately 880 feet south of Galpin Boulevard. The
southernmost intersection aligns with Audubon Boulevard to the south and will be for bus
ingress and egress. This access lies within the electrical substation property; therefore, ISD 112
must obtain the necessary easement from the City of Chaska.
The remaining access to the site lies 950 feet south of the northern access and 700 feet north of
Audubon Boulevard. The wetland north of this driveway dictated the access location.
The proposed driveways are 30 feet wide and drive aisle widths are 26 feet wide, which meets
the minimum requirements of the City Code.
Traffic Improvements
Based on the analysis in the Traffic Impact Study, the existing roadway network will
accommodate the traffic generated by the proposed Chanhassen High School if the following
mitigation measures are implemented by opening day of the school:

In addition, operation of the Lyman Boulevard/Galpin Boulevard and Lyman
Boulevard/Audubon Road north intersections should be monitored for potential improvements.
Both intersections will likely require traffic signals and additional turn lanes in the future.
Impacts to Regional System
The following corridors will be at or over capacity in the future whether or not the high school is
built. They should be monitored and appropriate improvements should be made when needed.

Audubon Road (C.S.A.H. 17) south of Lyman Boulevard
?
The final funding allocation for the Lyman Boulevard (C.S.A.H. 18) and Audubon Road
(C.S.A.H. 17) improvements will be determined in consultation with the City of Chanhassen,
Carver County and the City of Chaska.
GRADING AND DRAINAGE
The site presents a challenge for grading operations due to the steep grades along the railroad to
the north, the gas pipeline running east-west through the northern portion of the site, Bluff Creek
to the east and the electrical substation to the south. The six-inch diameter gas pipeline is owned
and operated by CenterPoint Energy and is centered within a 100-foot wide easement.
CenterPoint is allowing up to four feet of fill over the gas pipeline. Two crossings are proposed
over the pipeline: a trail on the east side from the tennis courts to the stadium and a concrete
walk from the parking lot to the stadium.
The HydroCAD calculations submitted indicate that the 100-year elevation of the
wetland/wetland mitigation area north of the Lake Hazeltine access point will extend onto
Lyman Boulevard and the access. Spot elevations must be shown between the wetland/wetland
mitigation and Lyman Boulevard to ensure that the road is not flooded during the 100-year event.
The proposed ponds along Lyman Boulevard have been designed to treat runoff from a portion
of the east half of Lyman Boulevard. There is no additional land in this corridor of Lyman
Boulevard for ponding; therefore, additional ponding is required so that runoff from the entire
future roadway width will be treated in these ponds.
Hydrology to the wetland/wetland mitigation area north of the Lake Hazeltine access point must
be maintained.
The outlet for Storm Basin 2 should be relocated to prevent short circuiting, which requires
separating the storm water inlet pipe from the outlet pipe.
The proposed drainage pattern on softball field 1 is from the outfield to the infield due to the
grade difference between the railroad tracks and the pipeline easement. The development team
should re-examine the proposed grades within the infield of this field to eliminate the low area
between second base and the pitcher’s mound.

The pavement grades within the north parking lot can be increased to reduce the height and/or
length of retaining walls 12 and 13. The school district may consider reducing the width of the
eastern drive aisle of the north parking lot to further reduce the height and/or length of these
retaining walls.
Grading operations on adjacent properties must be approved by the property owner. Grading
within the overhead electric and gas easement near the eastern access point must be approved by
the appropriate private utilities.
Identify all emergency overflow locations and elevations on the final grading plan.
The final grading plan must show the linework for the storm sewer.
Pond, drainage and utility easements are required over the ponds and wetlands.
SURFACE WATER MANAGEMENT
All stormwater ponds must be accessible for maintenance purposes. The plans must be revised
to accommodate a 20-foot wide access lane for maintenance vehicles and equipment for Pond 3.
It is recommended that this access be provided from the southeast corner of the bus corral to the
flared-end section at the south end of Pond 3. The slope of the access should not exceed 15%.
Manholes with two-foot sumps should be installed as the last road-accessible structures prior to
discharge into the storm water pond. This will help to prolong the maintenance interval of the
proposed storm water ponds.
The project proposes three rain gardens in the main drop-off area of the school. The plans
provide a cross-section and general seeding plan. However, more detailed plans should be
provided. The revised plans should include: details regarding the subsoil mix that will be used,
measures that will be taken to counter compaction that has occurred in surrounding native soils,
draintile configuration, draintile tie-in and drainage areas for each rain garden. The rain gardens
should be designed to draw down in a maximum of 72 hours to ensure mosquito breeding cannot
occur. For best results, staff recommends that the rain gardens be planted using minimum 2-inch
plugs instead of seed. Additionally, the rain gardens should be mulched with shredded hardwood
mulch to keep weeds from invading and to lock in moisture.
Concrete pavers are proposed for the drop-off area. In preliminary discussions with the
applicant, the applicant indicated that pervious pavers may be used for this area. If pervious
pavers are used, the subsoils should be “decompacted” to a minimum of 48 inches prior to paver
installation. Additionally, pervious pavers should be installed with a corrected subgrade to
ensure adequate drainage. The applicant should work with the City on the final design of
pervious pavers, if used, to ensure appropriate design and installation procedures are followed.
In order to reduce the demand for potable water for irrigation, the applicant should consider
utilizing stormwater ponds as a source for irrigation water.

EROSION AND SEDIMENT CONTROL
The Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) including all information required by the
NPDES Construction Site Permit should be located at the job trailer.
Erosion Control
Stable emergency overflows are needed for the proposed ponds on site. The emergency
overflows should be clearly labeled on the plan and a detail is needed. The emergency overflows
can be stabilized with a turf re-enforcement mat or fabric and riprap.
The plan should include detailed specifications for temporary stabilization of the site. The
timing of stabilization will vary depending upon slope and if it is a concentrated flow area. The
rate of mulch application should also be included on the plans (2 tons per acre, disc anchored).
All riprap/fabric at the flared end section should be installed within 24 hours of flared end
section installation.
Erosion control blanket should be installed on all slopes greater than or equal to 3:1. All exposed
soil areas should have temporary erosion protection or permanent cover year round, according to
the following table of slopes and time frames:
Type of Slope Time (Maximum time an area can
Steeper than 3:1 7 days remain open when the area
10:1 to 3:1 14 days is not actively being worked.)
Flatter than 10:1 21 days
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.
Sediment Control
Silt fence that is not placed on the contour must have J-Hooks or rock every 50 to 75 feet.
Temporary sediment basins should be constructed prior to disturbing upslope areas. The areas of
temporary sediment basins should be labeled on the plan. A temporary and/or permanent
sediment pond will need to be constructed at the locations of the outlets for Flared End Sections
(FES) 7 and 8. This should be installed prior to grading and then used as a temporary sediment
pond prior to discharging the runoff into the wetland. If it is used as a temporary pond, it should
stay in place until all turf is established. Temporary outlet structures (e.g., a perforated riser and
rock cone) are needed for the ponds; details should be provided.

Contractors and their subcontractors must receive approval of proposed dewatering methods
from the City’s project inspector or erosion and sediment control inspector prior to conducting
any and all dewatering on-site.
Wimco inlet controls or similar should be used to protect all storm sewer inlets.
The plans should be revised to include Chanhassen’s standard details for erosion and sediment
control (i.e., Details 3102, 3104, 3107, 3108, 3109, 5300, 5301, 5302, 5302A).
The plans should be revised to include a concrete washout area.
Street cleaning of soil tracked onto public streets should include daily street scraping and street
sweeping as-needed.
RETAINING WALLS
Due to the site constraints outlined in the “GRADING AND DRAINAGE” portion of
this report, numerous retaining walls are proposed throughout the site.
The locations of the retaining walls are generally shown on the drawing below.

UTILITIES
A City-owned 18-inch diameter trunk sanitary sewer lies to the east of the site near Bluff Creek.
The grading plan indicates that up to one foot of fill and up to two feet of cut is proposed over
the existing trunk sanitary sewer on the northeast corner of the site. The type of and the current
cover over this pipe is sufficient for the proposed changes. The developer must adjust the
manhole elevations according to City standard detail plates.
The trunk sanitary sewer line must be televised before and after construction to determine if the
high school construction has damaged the pipe. This section of sanitary sewer is scheduled for
televising in conjunction with the City’s sanitary sewer inflow and infiltration abatement
program. If the City televises this sanitary sewer before the high school construction is
mobilized, the developer will only be required to televise the line after construction is complete.
Eighteen-inch trunk watermain will be installed on the north side of Lyman Boulevard. The
school district will be reimbursed $166,424.00 which is the cost difference between the 18-inch
trunk and 10-inch lateral watermain.
The property was assessed $200,897.79 in 1996 for City Project 91-17, Upper Bluff Creek
Sanitary Sewer and Watermain. These assessments have been paid. Based on the assessment
rolls, the property was only assessed for trunk sanitary sewer and watermain; therefore, the trunk
water fees must be paid with the building permit based on the City Water Access Charge in
effect at the time the building permit is issued.
The hydrant locations along Lyman Boulevard must be adjusted so that the hydrants do not lie
within the high water level of the adjacent ponds.
Based on the proposed utility plan, an irrigation meter is required.
The utility plan must show the existing trunk sanitary sewer, existing overhead utilities and
existing gas pipelines.
Mylar and digital as-builts for the pond grading and utilities must be submitted in Carver County
coordinates.
MISCELLANEOUS
The project is planned to utilize two petroleum storage tanks (for fuel oil and diesel fuel) to
support facility operations. The fuel oil tank will be a 10,000-gallon underground fiberglass tank
with electronic monitoring and double-walled underground piping. This fuel will be piped to the
boilers and is designed to serve as backup fuel for the boilers in case of natural gas supply
interruption.
The diesel fuel tank will be a 2,700-gallon, skid-mounted above-ground storage tank, piped to a
1,500 KW diesel-powered electrical generator to be used to provide backup electrical power
should the normal power supply be interrupted.

Emergency response plans for releases from either fuel storage tank shall be included within the
emergency evacuation/response plan. Also, due to the capacity of the diesel fuel storage tank, a
Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasures (SPCC) Plan will need to be prepared and
implemented.
The buildings must be protected with automatic fire sprinkler systems. The building plans must
be prepared and signed by design professionals licensed in the State of Minnesota. Building
permits are required for all structures (including, but not limited to, storage buildings, concession
stands, bleachers, retaining walls). Retaining wall plans must be prepared and signed by a
structural engineer licensed in the State of Minnesota. The utility plans (marked preliminary)
were not reviewed by the building official. A detailed building plan review cannot be done until
complete plans are provided.
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
BLUFF CREEK OVERLAY DISTRICT
The site is partially within the Meadowlands Region of the Bluff Creek Overlay District. This
region of the overlay district is characterized by fragmented forest communities, high quality
wetlands and diverse wildlife populations.
The goals set forth in the City’s Bluff Creek Watershed Natural Resources Management Plan
(“Bluff Creek Plan”) for the Lowlands Region are to:
1. Preserve high-quality wetland systems, riparian areas and remaining forests;
2. Regenerate impaired ecosystems, especially wetlands, to the extent practical under the
present land use constraints;
3. Re-create natural links between major natural features within the Bluff Creek corridor;
and
4. Development of environmental educational opportunities within the corridor.
Wetlands A and B are being restored by the Minnesota Department of Transportation as
mitigation for wetland impacts that occurred in conjunction with the construction of Trunk
Highway 212. The restoration project was envisioned as part of the Bluff Creek Plan and is a
result of cooperation between MnDOT, the City and the school district. It will enhance the
vegetative communities along Bluff Creek, restore a portion of the creek to a more natural profile
and improve the hydrology of the wetland complex. The school district dedicated an easement to
MnDOT as part of the project for some of the mitigation to occur on school district property.
The construction activities associated with the proposed project should not conflict with the
easement granted to MnDOT.
The project proposes construction of an access road through a portion of the Bluff Creek Overlay
District. The encroachment into the primary zone requires a variance (see attached Findings of
Fact and Recommendation for variance justification). This road is necessary for safety purposes
Chanhassen High School
Planning Case 07-06

to maintain separation between bus and automobile traffic. To mitigate for the impacts to the
primary corridor, the applicant should submit a plan for the restoration of areas adjacent to the
Bluff Creek Corridor (including the drainageway along the north side of the substation and the
area east of the bus/event entrance) with species consistent with the City’s Bluff Creek
Watershed Natural Resources Management Plan.
WETLAND ALTERATION PERMIT
WETLANDS
Four Ag/Urban wetland basins exist on-site. Pinnacle Engineering, Inc. delineated the wetlands
in July 2006.
Wetland A is a 6.03-acre Type 2/3/6/7 wetland located in the northeast corner of the property. It
contains a swale that drains the northern portion of the site to the wetland complex in the eastern
portion of the site, adjacent to Bluff Creek. The wetland is dominated by reed canary grass, box
elder, cottonwood, elms and willows. The applicant is proposing to impact 0.82 acres of
wetland A for the construction of a stadium.
Wetland B is a 17.94-acre Type 2 wetland located in the east central portion of the project. It
contains a swale that drains the southern portion of the site to the wetland complex in the eastern
portion of the site, adjacent to Bluff Creek. The wetland is dominated by reed canary grass and
contains cattails and willows. The total proposed impacts to wetland B are 0.77 acres for the
construction of the southwest parking lot and the eastern bus access. Currently the plans show
two wetland boundaries for this wetland, specifically in the southwest corner of the wetland.
The plans should be revised to show the delineated wetland boundary.
Wetland C is a 0.23-acre Type 2 wetland located along Lyman Boulevard in the southwestern
corner of the property. The wetland is dominated by reed canary grass. No impacts are
proposed to Wetland C.
Wetland D is a 0.40-acre Type 2/3 wetland along Lyman Boulevard on the western edge of the
property. The wetland has been altered historically by farming and draintile and is dominated by
corn, nightshade and reed canary grass. However, it is still a jurisdictional wetland. The
applicant is proposing 0.10 acres of impact to wetland D to allow for the construction of the
northwestern access.
A wetland buffer 16.5 to 20 feet in width (with a minimum average of 16.5 feet) must be
maintained around all Ag/Urban wetlands. All wetlands and wetland buffer areas should be
protected by silt fence during grading. 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. All structures must maintain a setback of at least 40 feet from the wetland buffer edge.
The wetland buffer setback should be shown on the plans.

Wetland Mitigation
The applicant is proposing to create 2.57 acres of New Wetland Credit (NWC) and 0.81 acres of
Public Value Credit (PVC). The mitigation will occur at seven different locations, four of which
will be adjacent to the Bluff Creek wetland complex. Wetland replacement must occur in a
manner consistent with Chanhassen City Code and the Minnesota Wetland Conservation Act
(MR 8420).
The new wetland credit needed to satisfy the Wetland Conservation Act (MR 8420) is 3.38 acres
with a minimum of 1.69 acres in the form of new wetland credit and the remainder in public
value credit. The applicant is proposing to meet the requirements with 2.57 acres of NWC and
0.65 acres of PVC.
Wetlands C and D are proposed to be restored as part of the overall mitigation plan for the
property. The applicant should provide additional information as to how the vegetative
communities and hydrology will be re-established in these areas.
A five-year wetland replacement monitoring plan should be submitted. The replacement
monitoring plan should include a detailed management plan for invasive non-native species,
particularly purple loosestrife and reed canary grass. The plans should show fixed photo
monitoring points for the replacement wetland. The applicant should provide proof of recording
of a Declaration of Restrictions and Covenants for Replacement Wetland.
The applicant must submit a letter of credit equal to 110% of the cost of the wetland creation
(including grading and seeding) to ensure the design standards for the replacement wetland are
met. The letter of credit should be effective for no less than five years from the date of final
approval. The applicant should submit a cost estimate for wetland creation (including grading
and seeding) so the City can calculate the amount of the wetland creation letter of credit.
OTHER AGENCIES
The applicant shall apply for and obtain permits from the appropriate regulatory agencies (e.g.,
Carver County, Riley-Purgatory-Bluff Creek Watershed District, Minnesota Pollution Control
Agency) and comply with their conditions of approval.

CITY OF CHANHASSEN
CARVER AND HENNEPIN COUNTIES, MINNESOTA
FINDINGS OF FACT
AND RECOMMENDATION
INRE:
Application of Anderson-Johnson Associates, Inc. and Independent School District 112 for Rezoning
from Agricultural Estate District, A2, and Planned Unit Development, PUD, to Office and
Institutional District, 01; Site Plan approval with Variances for a High School campus including an

grading and filling of wetlands on site.
On March 6, 2007, the Chanhassen Planning Commission met at its regularly scheduled
meeting to consider the application of Anderson-Johnson Associates, Inc. and Independent School
District 112 for a High School Campus including rezoning, site plan review with variances,
conditional use permit with variances and a wetland alteration permit. The Planning Commission
conducted a public hearing on the proposed rezoning preceded by published and mailed notice. The
Planning Commission heard testimony from all interested persons wishing to speak and now makes
the following:
FINDINGS OF FACT
1. The property is currently zoned A2, Agricultural Estate District, and PUD, Planned Unit
Development.
2. The property is guided in the Land Use Plan for Office Institutional and Office/Industrial.

provisions of and has been found to be consistent with the official City Comprehensive
Plan.
b. The proposed use is compatible with the present and future land uses of the area.
c. The proposed use conforms with all performance standards contained in the Zoning
Ordinance contingent on approval of the variances.
d. The proposed use will not tend to or actually depreciate the area in which it is
proposed.
e. The proposed use can be accommodated with existing public services and will not
overburden the city's service capacity.
f. Traffic generation by the proposed use is within capabilities of streets serving the
property.
1
5. Conditional Use Permit:
a. The proposed project will not be detrimental to or enhance the public health, safety,
comfort, convenience or general welfare of the neighborhood or the city.
b. The proposed project will be consistent with the objectives ofthe city's comprehensive
plan and this chapter.
c. The proposed project will be designed, constructed, operated and maintained so to be
compatible in appearance with the existing or intended character of the general vicinity
and will not change the essential character of that area.
d. The proposed project will not be hazardous or disturbing to existing or planned
neighboring uses.
e. The proposed project will be served adequately by essential public facilities and
services, including streets, police and fire protection, drainage structures, refuse
disposal, water and sewer systems and schools; or will be served adequately by such
facilities and services provided by the persons or agencies responsible for the
establishment of the proposed use.
f. The proposed project ill not create excessive requirements for public facilities and
services and will not be detrimental to the economic welfare of the community.
g. The proposed project will not involve uses, activities, processes, materials, equipment
and conditions of operation that will be detrimental to any persons, property or the
general welfare because of excessive production of traffic, noise, smoke, fumes, glare,
odors, rodents, or trash.

this article.
6. Site Plan Review:
a. The proposed project is consistent with the elements and objectives of the city's
development guides, including the comprehensive plan, official road mapping, and
other plans that may be adopted;
b. The proposed project is consistent with the site plan review requirements;
2
c. The proposed project preserves the site in its natural state to the extent practicable by
minimizing tree and soil removal and designing grade changes to be in keeping with
the general appearance of the neighboring developed or developing or developing
areas;
d. The proposed project creates a harmonious relationship of building and open space
with natural site features and with existing and future buildings having a visual
relationship to the development;
e. The proposed project creates a functional and harmonious design for structures and
site features, with special attention to the following:
1). An internal sense of order for the buildings and use on the site and provision of
a desirable environment for occupants, visitors and general community;
2). The amount and location of open space and landscaping;
3). Materials, textures, colors and details of construction as an expression ofthe
design concept and the compatibility of the same with adjacent and
neighboring structures and uses; and
4). Vehicular and pedestrian circulation, including walkways, interior drives and
parking in terms oflocation and number of access points to the public streets,
width of interior drives and access points, general interior circulation,
separation of pedestrian and vehicular traffic and arrangement and amount of
parking.
f. The proposed project protects adjacent and neighboring properties through reasonable
provision for surface water drainage, sound and sight buffers, preservation of views,
light and air and those aspects of design not adequately covered by other regulations
which may have substantial effects on neighboring land uses.
7. Variance (Bluff Creek Primary Zone Encroachment):
a. That the literal enforcement of this chapter would cause an undue hardship. Undue
hardship means that the property cannot be put to reasonable use because of its size,
physical surroundings, shape or topography. Reasonable use includes a use made by a
majority of comparable property within 500 feet of it. The intent of this provision is not
to allow a proliferation of variances, but to recognize that there are pre-existing standards
in this neighborhood. Variances that blend with these pre-existing standards without
departing downward from them meet this criteria.
Finding: The granting of the variance to encroach in to the Bluff Creek primary zone is
unavoidable due to the configuration ofthe Audubon Road (C.S.A.H. 17) and Lyman Boulevard
(C.S.A.H. 18) intersection and the access to the site.
b. The conditions upon which a petition for a variance is based are not applicable,
generally, to other property within the same zoning classification.
3
Finding: Entrance drives are generally not as proscribed as that for the High School site. The
encroachment in to the primary zone is unavoidable.
c. The purpose of the variation is not based upon a desire to increase the value or income potential
of the parcel of land.
Finding: The location of the entrance drive does not increase the value or income potential of
the high school site.
d. The alleged difficulty or hardship is not a self-created hardship.
Finding: The hardship is not self created since the variance is unavoidable due to the
configuration of the Audubon Road (C.S.A.H. 17) and Lyman Boulevard (C.S.A.H. 18)
intersection and the access to the site.
e. The granting of the variance will not be detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to other
land or improvements in the neighborhood in which the parcel is located.
Finding: The granting of the variance will not be detrimental to the public welfare or injurious
to other land or improvements in the neighborhood in which the parcel is located. The project
will create additional buffer zones and enhance the bluff creek corridor.
f. The proposed variation will not impair an adequate supply oflight and air to adjacent property or
substantially increase the congestion of the public streets or increase the danger of fire or
endanger the public safety or substantially diminish or impair property values within the
neighborhood.
Finding: The variation will not impair an adequate supply oflight and air to adjacent property
or substantially increase the congestion of the public streets or increase the danger of fire or
endanger the public safety or substantially diminish or impair property values within the
neighborhood.
8. Variance (Three Story):
a. That the literal enforcement of this chapter would cause an undue hardship. Undue hardship
means that the property cannot be put to reasonable use because of its size, physical
surroundings, shape or topography. Reasonable use includes a use made by a majority of
comparable property within 500 feet of it. The intent of this provision is not to allow a
proliferation of variances, but to recognize that there are pre-existing standards in this
neighborhood. Variances that blend with these pre-existing standards without departing
downward from them meet this criteria.
Finding: The need for a variance is due to the type and function of building as a school and the
direction that the city provided the school to try to reduce site grading. The construction of a
walkout type building is warranted. Normally, the lower, basement, level would not be included
as a story. However because the lower floor elevation is more than 12 feet, it is by definition a
story.
b. The conditions upon which a petition for a variance is based are not applicable, generally, to
other property within the same zoning classification.
4
Finding: The conditions upon which the variance is based are unique to the proposed
development ofthe site for a high school.
c. The purpose of the variation is not based upon a desire to increase the value or income potential
of the parcel of land.
Finding: The purpose of the variation is not based upon a desire to increase the value or income
potential ofthe parcel, but to the utilization ofthe site in an efficient manner.
d. The alleged difficulty or hardship is not a self-created hardship.
Finding: The alleged difficulty or hardship is due to direction provided by the city.
e. The granting of the variance will not be detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to other
land or improvements in the neighborhood in which the parcel is located.
Finding: The granting of the variance will not be detrimental to the public welfare or injurious
to other land or improvements in the neighborhood in which the parcel is located.
f. The proposed variation will not impair an adequate supply oflight and air to adjacent property or
substantially increase the congestion of the public streets or increase the danger of fire or
endanger the public safety or substantially diminish or impair property values within the
neighborhood.
Finding: The proposed variation will not impair an adequate supply oflight and air to adjacent
property or substantially increase the congestion of the public streets or increase the danger of fire or
endanger the public safety or substantially diminish or impair property values within the neighborhood.
9. The planning report #07-06 dated March 6, 2007, prepared by Robert Generous, et aI, is
incorporated herein.

RE: Development Review Application
Proposed New High School- Chanhassen
Chaska Public Schools - ISD 112
Dear Mr. Generous:
On behalf oflndependent School District # 112 and Rozeboom Miller Architects, we are pleased
to provide the enclosed information in support of the proposed New High School in Chanhassen.
With this packet, we are applying for the following permits:
Conditional Use Permit (CUP)
Rezoning (from A2 to 0-1)
Site Plan Review
Variances
Wetland Alteration Pennit
As you know, the School District received approval for an Interim Use Permit (for early grading
work) and received acceptance of the Environmental Assessment Worksheet (EA W) from the
City of Chanhassen in December 2006.
We understand that receipt of this application and supportive infonnation, and your
detennination of the packet's completeness, will allow us to be on the March 6, 2007 Planning
Commission agenda.
General Proiect Description
Existing Conditions
The 94.8 acre parcel is bordered along its north side by the Twin Cities &Western Railroad; to its
west and south by Lyman Blvd.; and Bluff Creek and its adjacent wetlands to the east. Chaska's
electrical substation lies between the school's south property line and the intersection of Lyman
Boulevard and Audubon Road. The majority ofthe property is cUlTently farmed for agricultural
purposes with the highest point of the site and the steep grades along its east boundary are made
up of native grasses and trees. A fairly significant wooded area lies along the south edge of the
property. The old farm -homestead, with some remnants still remaining, lies in the southwest

corner of the site just opposite Hazeltine Lake Drive. Existing wetlands predominantly lie along
the east edge of the property with localized fingers extending at the north and south edges of the
property toward the west. Approximately 25 acres of wetlands areas exist within the property
limits.
The topography of the property varies in elevation from 985 at the lowest point (east) to 1075 at
the top of the grass bluffin the center ofthe site. Because the center of the site is at the highest
elevation, drainage typically is directed toward the extents of the property eventually reaching
either the bluff creek wetlands to the east or to the Lyman Boulevard ditch to the west and south.
Drainage immediately south of the bluff will be carried to Bluff Creek via a fairly significant
natural gorge immediately north of the electrical substation.
Domestic water is available at the northwest the northeast corners of the site. A 12" water main
extends approximately 200' south of the northeast property corner where it terminates. Water off
the northwest corner of the property actually lies north of the railroad tracks and at the
intersection of Lyman Boulevard and Galpin Boulevard. Sanitary (trunk) sewer is located along
the length of the east property line and connects the neighborhood to the north to a point
extending south of the Lyman Blvd. and Audubon Drive intersection.
Proposed Site Improvements - Complete Build-out
The new high school campus includes parking for approximately 1,000 cars, bus parking for
approximately 30 buses and overflow and event parking for an additional 80 vehicles. Three
entrance drives of Lyman Boulevard provide access to the school site. The south entrance drive
is at the intersection of Lyman Boulevard and Audubon Road and will primarily support bus and
event parking. The proposed entrance drive at the southwest corner of the site, at the intersection
of Lyman Boulevard and Lake Hazeltine Drive, will serve for limited ingress/ egress. The
entrance drive west of the school will serve as the primary/ main entrance for students, visitors
and service deliveries. '
With the existence of the Magellan gas pipeline north of the school and north parking lot, the
athletic facilities find themselves north of the pipeline easement. The exception to this is the
proposed tennis courts and soccer fields which lie just south of the Magellan easement and are
located northeast and northwest of the building, respectively. Softball and baseball facilities are
located in the northwest quadrant of the site and are tucked between the gas main and railroad
tracks. The running track and field stadium, which is aligned in a northwest-southeast direction
will be carved into the hillside to allow the home bleachers to transition from an upper spectator
plaza down to the field level. Home bleachers for I ,GOO spectators and visitor bleachers for 800
spectators are provided. Field events, including high jump, long/triple jump, pole vault, shotput,
and discus are located along the east and southeast corners of the running track. Practice fields
will be developed in the northeast quadrant of the site and tucked between the railroad tracks and
existing wetland areas.
We have met with Carver County regarding the potential upgrades of Lyman Boulevard. We
understand that until there is a "Design and Construction Agreement"between Carver County and
SCANNED
the cities ofChanhassen and Chaska, fonnal design of Lyman Blvd. cannot take place. With that
in mind and in an effort to anticipate the impacts of the Lyman Blvd. upgrades, we have provided
a general layout for the proposed 4-lane roadway with turn-lanes into/ out of the school site.
Bob, with this application we are providing the following infonnation:
1. Completed application - Development Review Application;
2. Fees will be submitted directly by ISD #112 as follows:
a. Conditional Use Permit (CUP): $425
b. Rezoning (from A2 to 0-1): $500
c. Site Plan Review: $500 + $4,000 (see note below)
d. Variances: $200
e. Wetland Alteration Pennit: $275
f. Notification Sign and Escrow: $850
3. Legal Description of property;
4. Plan Sheets (16 full-size sets folded, (1) 11 "xI7" copy and (1) 8.5"xll ");
5. Costs associated with the Trunk Water Main along Lyman Boulevard;
5. Colored renderings (6 copies);
6. Disk (PDF files of the Plan Sheets).
We trust the enclosed information satisfies the City's requirements. If you have any questions or
require additional or revised information, please do not hesitate to contact our office.

CHANHASSEN HIGH SCHOOL
BUILDING DESIGN NARRATIVE
JANUARY 15, 2007
BUILDING PLAN
The new Chanhassen High School will be constructed for 2000 students, grades 9-12. The total
area of the building is 405,000 which is about equal to the recently expanded Chaska High
School. When completed, Independent School District 112 will have two high schools with a
total district high school capacity of 4000 students.
The building is designed with three distinct functional components - Academic, Performing
Arts, and Physical Education/Athletic - composed around a central commons space that
contains the primary public entrance, student dining, student support services, and building
administration.
The public entrance to the building and central commons faces west, toward Lyman Blvd., and
will be visible from the north and central access drives. The southern access drive, entering the
site from the Lyman/Audubon intersection, will be used on a daily basis exclusively for student
bus access. The student bus entrance is on the east side of the building, also with access to
the central student commons, directly opposite the main public entrance.
This arrangement of entrances will enhance supervision and security of the main public spaces
of the school.
The Academic Wing of the building is accessed from the student commons and extends south.
It is composed of four classroom areas, each sized for 500 students. Two of the 500 student
classroom areas are on the 1st Floor Level and two are on the 2nd Floor Level. The Media
Center is in the center of the Academic Wing, two stories in height, and accessible from both
floor levels of student classroom space. The science classrooms are located on the south end
of the Academic Wing, 6 per floor level, facing south, with a shared greenhouse on the 2nd floor
level.
On the lower floor level, below the Academic Wing, is a partial floor area containing the art
classrooms and industrial technology classrooms. This walkout level is advantageous because
it keeps these classrooms near the academic area, allows vehicular access from the to the shop
areas, and access to the outdoor site areas from the art classrooms.
The Performing Arts Wing of the building is also accessed from the student commons and
extends to the northwest. This is a single story area that includes a 650 seat auditorium, a
multi-purpose black box theater, and the music department comprised of three large rehearsal
rooms and numerous support spaces,
Also adjacent to the student commons on the north side is the food service, comprised of a full
service preparation kitchen and large serving area capable of serving up to 600 students in
each of three lunch periods.
The Physical Education/Athletic area is in the northeast quadrant of the building, also accessed
from the student commons. The student commons will serve as a lobby and concessions area
for athletic events. The PE/Athletic area includes a main competition gymnasium with 2000
moveable bleacher seats, and three full sized basketball courts when the bleachers are not
deployed. The area also includes three other multi-purpose gymnasium courts, a wrestling
room, fitness room, weight room, locker rooms. The floor level of the courts is one story below
the student commons area, so that the bleachers are top-loaded. A running track circles the
Rn7",hnnm l\Aill",r Arrhit",r-tc:
P~n'" 1
competition gymnasium at the commons level and also provides access to the bleachers.
BUILDING EXTERIOR
The building exterior was designed to be welcoming and expressive of the learning qualities of
the school, using natural materials to create a sense of warmth and timelessness.
The exterior building materials include two colors of brick and one color of cast stone. The two
brick colors are composed horizontally to emphasize the connection to the geology of the
natural site and to emphasize the walk-out level on the east side. The lighter colored cast stone
is integrated as vertical planar accents at the significant architectural elements of the building:
the entrance, the commons, the fly loft, the team resource areas, and the science wing.
Natural light is essential to the learning environment. Windows are organized in a hierarchy of
groupings and sizes from the punched openings at each classroom, to the large storefront
windows in the team resource areas, to the clerestory windows and curtain walls that will flood
the most common areas of the building with natural light and capture views of the natural
wetland areas near the school.
While the building is three stories in height, the mass of the building is embedded into the
existing hillside, so that from the west the building will appear only two stories in height and from
the east the final building height will be about one story higher than the elevation of the existing
natural hillside.

RE: Planning Case 07-06 Chanhassen High School
Dear Mr. Generous:
Referencing the proposed high school, CenterPoint Energy, a division of
CenterPoint Energy Resources Corp., owns and operates a 6-inch diameter natural
gas pipeline located in an easement on the east end of the property.
The first easement number 1960-84, was recorded October 28, 1960 in Book 61
of Deeds on page 490. The second easement number 1960-92, was recorded
October 28, 1960 in Book 61 of Deeds on page 499-500, Carver County,
Minnesota.
CenterPoint Energy's pipelines are operated and maintained in accordance with the
Code of Federal Regulations, Part 192, Title 49, "Transportation of Natural and
Other Gasses by Pipeline: Minimum Federal Safety Standards. No grading or other
earth movement will be allowed in the easement unless other arrangements have
been made with CenterPoint Energy. Enclosed is a copy of the "Guidelines for
Construction and/or Encroachment Within Gas Pipeline Easements" to aid in any
design before approval by CenterPoint Energy.
The reduced set of plans that were sent cannot be read. Please forward a large set of
plans for review and approval to me at the address below. Our engineering staff
will review and make necessary changes to safely maintain the pipeline.
Respectfully,
CENTERPOINT ENERGY

GUIDELINES FOR CONSTRUCTION AND/OR ENCROACHMENT WITHIN GAS PIPELINE EASEMENTS
The following are general requirements only. Center Point Energy must inspect the area and review construction
plans. Final construction plans must be reviewed and approved. in writing. by Center Point Energy Engineering prior
HUhe start of any construction within CenterPoint Energy's easement. Grading and utility plans showing
CenterPoint Energy's approval must be on site and available to Center Point Energy personnel during construction
within the easement.
. 1. Soil shall not be removed or placed in a manner that will result in earth or pavement cover over the pipeline of
less than three feet or more than five feet unless otherwise approved. A level area of not less than six feet on
each side of the pipeline shall be maintained at all times. Slope beyond 6' from the pipeline shall not be steeper
than 4 to 1. unless otherwise agreed. Any amount of cut or fill, within the 4 to 1 slope area, shall increase the
width of the level area on each side of the pipeline by that same footage of cut or fill. Blasting in the vicinity of
any pipeline requires review and written approval by a CenterPoint Energy engineer prior to start. The pipeline
must be fully accessible at all times before, during, and after the construction.
2. Landscaping over and within ten feet on each side of the pipeline is restricted to grass cover only. Beyond ten
feet on each side of the pipeline, upright plantings are restricted to, and shall not exceed an eventual growth
height of six (6) feet. No trees shall be planted or remain within the easement. Any trees, removed by
Center Point Energy from within the easement, while performing maintenance activities shall not be replaced by
CenterPoint Energy or the current owner, their successors or assigns.
3. Any buried utility line installed across the in-place pipeline shall be placed below the pipeline with no less than
one foot of vertical separation, padded with well compacted (95% Standard Procter) and cross at an angle
between 45 degrees and 90 degrees from the pipeline unless otherwise approved.
4. With prior CenterPoint Energy approval by a Senior Engineer or Right of Way Administrator, parking lots,
perpendicular driveways or roadways of portland cement concrete or asphaltic concrete (or similar materials)
may be placed within the easement, but shall be limited in width when crossing the easement to minimize the
interference with or access to the pipeline for inspection and maintenance. Any contractor equipment
movement over the pipeline shall only be at an angle greater than 45 degrees to the pipeline, and must be on
a constructed haul road composed of well-graded gravel, 3 feet thick, for a minimum distance of ten feet on
each side of the pipeline Permanent structures including, but not limited to, buildings, signs, screen walls,
decks, tennis courts. and swimming pools are not allowed under any circumstances within the easement.
Installations including, but not limited to, retaining walls and fences crossing the pipeline require approval by
the Center Point Energy Senior Engineer or the Right of Way Administrator, before construction. All fences
crossing the pipeline must have a 10-foot wide gate centered over the pipeline. All fences installed parallel with
the pipeline will maintain a minimum of 10 feet of separation from the pipeline.
5. Once CenterPoint Energy and the Owner, Developer or Contractor have reached an agreement, CenterPoint
Energy shall be given at least two working days advance notice of planned construction activity so
arrangements can be made for Center Point Energy Personnel to monitor the construction. CenterPoint Energy
will locate and stake the pipeline, but will not assume responsibility to expose or backfill the pipeline or to
determine the actual elevation of the in-place pipeline. Excavation to expose the pipeline shall be parallel to the
pipeline. Center Point Energy Personnel must be present during this excavation. Backfill must be free of rocks
and shall be compacted to 95% Standard Procter.
6. Any subsequent damage or removals caused by Center Point Energy in the exercise of its easements rights, of
any and all of those certain foreign constructions (landscaping, driveway, roadway, utility lines, etc.) which
may be permitted within the easement area, will be permanently repaired or replaced at the owner's or
contractor's (not Center Point Energy's) expense.
7. In accordance with Federal Department of Transportation Codes, Center Point Energy must place markers over
transmission pipelines. These markers will be placed at all road crossings, in back of curb or at property line, at
changes of direction and periodically along the pipeline. All natural gas transmission line locating markers
placed by Center Point Energy will not be removed.
If you have any questions call 612.321.5426 or 612.321.5381.

RE: Planning Case 07-06 Chanhassen High School
Dear Bobf
The City of Chaska would offer the following two comments to the site plans submitted for the
Chanhassen High School:
1. The traffic improvements outlined in the High School EAW dated 11-03-06 should be
considered the minimum required to be in place prior to the opening of the school.
Said improvements modify the existing street system and are viewed as meeting
short-term needs. Reconstructing the portion of Lyman Boulevard impacted by the
High School to its ultimate section, as presently being discussed by Chanhassen,
Chaska, and Carver County, provides a permanent access solution and is preferable
from a traffic flow, safety, and economic viewpoint.
2. Chaska is working with the School District on modifications to its electric substation
that will be necessary to allow transfer of the easements to accommodate the access
drives to the school and realignment of the entrance drive to the substation. Chaska
foresees no problems in resolving these details and furnishing the required
easements.
If you should have any questions about these comments, please feel free to contact me at your
convenience.
Sincerely,
William Monk
City Engineer
