An amendment to the Southwest Village Planned Unit Development standards to permit a coffee shop with a drive-through, revise the retail building permitted square feet, and revise the sign standards for the project; and 2. Site plan approval for a 12,600 square foot, one-story, multi-tenant commercial building with a coffee shop with a drive-through pickup window. BACKGROUND On June 11, 2007, the Chanhassen City Council granted final plat approval of Planning Case #06-18 for Southwest Village for two lots and three outlots, as shown on the plans stamped ‘Received May 11, 2007’. On June 12, 2006, City Council approved the site plan for two 8,500 square-foot retail buildings for Planning Case 06-18 for Lot 2, Block 1, SouthWest Village as shown in plans dated received April 13, 2006. On June 12, 2006, the Chanhassen City Council approved a Planned Unit Development Amendment to the existing standards, a Variance to allow reduced setbacks from collector roads, Preliminary Plat to subdivide 10.01 acres into 35 lots and 3 Outlots – SOUTHWEST VILLAGE, and Site Plan Review for the construction of two multi-tenant commercial buildings, a parking ramp, 1 six-plex, 3 five-plex, and 3 four-plex townhomes, Planning Case 06-18. DISCUSSION The proposed development completes the development of Southwest Village which was originally approved in 2006. However, a drive-through was not permitted and two 8,500 square-foot retail buildings were approved for the site. To permit the revised plan, an amendment to the Southwest Village PUD is necessary and a site plan approval is required for the building. Staff has worked extensively with the applicant to finalize the development and is recommending approval of the site plan. Staff is recommending that only those sections of the PUD (Permitted Uses and Prohibited Signs) be amended to approve the project. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Planning Commission recommend approval of Planning Case #2023-04, PUD ordinance Amendment and Site Plan prepared by Westwood Professional Services, Inc., dated 02/17/2023, subject to the conditions of the staff report and adopt the findings of fact and recommendation.

A PUD amendment must be consistent with the city’s Comprehensive Plan. 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. Notice of this public hearing has been mailed to all property owners within 500 feet. PROPOSAL/SUMMARY The applicant is requesting: 1. An amendment to the Southwest Village Planned Unit Development standards to permit a coffee shop with drive-through, revise the retail building permitted square feet, and revise the sign standards for the project; and 2. Site plan approval for a 12,600 square foot, one-story, multi-tenant commercial building with a coffee shop with a drive-through pickup window. APPLICABLE REGULATIONS Chapter 20, Article II, Division 6, Site Plan Review Chapter 20, Article IV, Section 20-292, Drive-Through Facilities Chapter 20, Article VIII, Planned Unit Development Standards Chapter 20, Article XXIII, Division 7, Design Standards for Commercial, Industrial and Office- Institutional Developments Southwest Village PUD standards BACKGROUND On June 11, 2007, the Chanhassen City Council granted final plat approval of Planning Case #06- 18 for SOUTHWEST VILLAGE for two lots and three outlots, as shown on the plans stamped Received May 11, 2007’. On June 12, 2006, City Council approved the site plan for two 8,500 square-foot retail buildings for Planning Case 06-18 for Lot 2, Block 1, SouthWest Village as shown in plans dated received April 13, 2006. On June 12, 2006, the Chanhassen City Council approved a Planned Unit Development 34267 Page 3 of 22 Amendment to the existing standards, a Variance to allow reduced setbacks from collector roads, Preliminary Plat to subdivide 10.01 acres into 35 lots and 3 Outlots –SOUTHWEST VILLAGE, and Site Plan Review for the construction of two multi-tenant commercial buildings, a parking ramp, 1 six-plex, 3 five-plex, and 3 four-plex townhomes, Planning Case 06- 18. On September 9, 2013, the Chanhassen City Council approved the final plat for SOUTHWEST VILLAGE 2ND ADDITION and approved the site plan for SouthWest Village Townhomes. SITE CONSTRAINTS Bluff Creek corridor This parcel is not encumbered by the Bluff Creek Overlay District. The City of Chanhassen established the Bluff Creek Overlay District by ordinance in 1998 to protect the Bluff Creek Corridor, wetlands, bluffs and significant stands of mature trees through the use of careful site design and other low-impact practices. Bluff Protection There are no bluffs on the property. Shoreland Management The property is not located within a shoreland protection district. Floodplain Overlay This property is not within a federally designated floodplain. Wetland Protection There is not a wetland located in the development site. REZONING ANALYSIS The applicant is requesting an amendment to the Planned Unit Development to permit the construction of a 12,600 square foot building with a coffee shop with a drive-through pickup window. Additionally, they need to amend the sign standards to allow signage on the southern building elevation as well as expanding the project monument sign to permit tenant signage and, potentially, the northern building elevation. Section 20-501. Intent 35268 Page 4 of 22 Planned unit developments offer enhanced flexibility to develop a site through the relaxation of most normal zoning district standards. The use of the PUD in this instance is to permit the mixed-use development. In exchange for this enhanced flexibility, the city has the expectation that the development plan will result in a significantly higher quality and more sensitive proposal than would have been the case with the other more standard zoning districts. The proposed development provides a compatible development with the surrounding development subject to the recommended modifications to the plan. DEVELOPMENT DESIGN STANDARDS The applicant is proposing changes to the design standards to permit the construction of a 12,600 square foot commercial building with a coffee shop and drive-through. Additionally, the neighborhood scale commercial building is being revised from 8,500 square feet to 12,600 square feet. (section b. Permitted Uses) To facilitate the coffee shop, the prohibition of the Menu Board must be deleted. (section i. signs, 7. Prohibited) to allow for the menu/ordering board station in the drive-through. The applicant would also like to add signage above the coffee shop pickup window. Staff does not believe that this signage is necessary to provide reasonable opportunity for identifying the use of the building. Should the Planning Commission decide that this signage is reasonable and necessary, then the following language my be added to the design standards: section i. 3. d. Signs along the sides of the retail buildings are prohibited unless the actual entrance into a tenant’s space is located at the side of the building or such signage is located over a pickup window. Finally, the applicant is proposing adding tenant signage over the development entrance sign. Such signage is in violation of section i. 2. and i. 7. of development standards. Staff does not believe that this signage is necessary to provide reasonable opportunity for identifying the businesses within the building since signage is provided on the street frontage and entrances to the building. Staff is proposing the following development standards govern the development of the property. 36269 Page 5 of 22 Proposed amendments are shown in strike-through and bold format:) SOUTHWEST VILLAGE PUD DEVELOPMENT DESIGN STANDARDS b.Permitted Uses The permitted uses in this zone should be limited to appropriate commercial and service uses consistent with meeting the daily needs of the neighborhood and the transit facility users.

The proposed amendments to the PUD ordinance assist in the furtherance of the following goals of the City of Chanhassen Comprehensive Plan: Development will be encouraged within the MUSA line. The city will seek opportunities to provide transitions between different uses of different types. Development should be phased in accordance with the ability of the city to provide services. Consistent with the mixed use land use designation. SITE PLAN REVIEW The applicant is requesting approval of a 12,600 square foot, one-story commercial building with a drive-through for a coffee shop. 41274 Page 10 of 22 ARCHITECTURAL COMPLIANCE Size portion Placement Entries: The building has pronounced entrances with pearl white borders, the use of onyx cement boards and black steel canopies. Articulation: The building incorporates multiple details and has been very tastefully designed. The architectural style is unique to the building, but will fit in with the surrounding area through the incorporation of brick and block as well as the arched canopies. The building will provide a variation in style through the use of brick veneer, block veneer, glass and metal canopies. The incorporation of the aluminum canopy around the building provides aesthetic detailing to the elevations. The buildings utilize exterior materials that are durable and of high quality. Samples of the materials will be made available at the meeting. 42275 Page 11 of 22 Signs: All signage must meet the sign criteria in the Planned Unit Development Design Standards for Southwest Village. The applicant is proposing that signage be permitted on the south elevation. Since this is not a business entrance nor is it on street frontage, signage is not permitted. Staff does not support an amendment to the design standards that would permit this signage. Material and detail High quality materials are incorporated in the building including brick, fiber cement wall panels, concrete masonry veneer, metal panels, storefront system, aluminum window systems, aluminum curtain wall, glass, metal coping, steel arches, metal canopies and fabric awnings. Color The colors chosen for the buildings include sandy-brown (Saint Simon Blend 20-01), onyx, dark brown and burgundy (Blackened Ash), Market Pearl White, black and deep black. The selection is unique and creates color contrasts and a vibrant and stunning addition to Southwest Village. 43276 Page 12 of 22 Height and Roof Design The building height is 24 feet 6 inches to the top of the primary parapet. The main entrance and north and south elevations’ parapets are 27 feet with the coffee shop and north entrance at 24 feet. Mechanical equipment shall be screened. No wooded fences on the roof. Facade transparency Over 50 percent of the first floor elevation that is viewed by the public includes transparent windows and or doors. All other areas include landscaping material and architectural detailing and articulation. Site Furnishing Community features shall include landscaping, lighting, chairs, tables, and bike racks. The applicant shall investigate the installation of electric vehicle charging stations. At a minimum, the site shall be electric vehicle charging station capable including the installation of appropriate circuit boxes and conduits. Loading areas, refuse area, etc. A trash enclosure is proposed south of the building to the south of the drive-through aisle. The enclosure shall incorporate the concrete masonry unit (CMU) block and brick veneer of the building. Lot Frontage and Parking location Parking for the site is provided as part of the transit facility including adjacent to the building and within the first floor of the parking ramp. This parking is granted through the development covenants. ACCESS Vehicular access to the proposed development located is had via the private street known as Southwest Village Drive. Southwest Village Drive is serviced by CSAH 101 (Great Plains Blvd), a Carver County arterial to the west, and Lyman Boulevard, a city collector to the south. Southwest Village Drive is a private street approved with the 2007 Southwest Village plat and in accordance with the 2004 Southwest Metro Transit Planned Unit Development (PUD). A traffic study conducted by Benshoof & Associates, Inc. was provided with the 2004 PUD to determine the impacts of the development on the surrounding roadways, which included trip generation projections based on the anticipated uses of the PUD. The 2004 traffic study concluded that the traffic generation from the PUD would be within the capabilities of the surrounding roadways servicing the property. However, the study’s trip generation analysis anticipated the uses associated with development’s site, 680 Southwest Village Drive, to be 8,000 square feet of daycare and 8,000 square feet of convenience retail. The applicant is proposing different uses 44277 Page 13 of 22 with the development; the construction of 1,950 square feet of coffee shop and 10,850 square feet of coworking/subscription retail space. To address the discrepancy in uses projected in the 2004 traffic study and the current proposal, the applicant provided an updated trip generation memo produced by Edward Terhaar with Stantec addressing the change in trip generation information. The updated commercial uses proposed by the applicant compared to the previous trip generation estimates show a net reduction in traffic volumes, and as such the conclusion from the 2004 study are still valid. It is important to note that the original 2004 study did include traffic volumes based on a larger build-out of each approved use within the PUD than what was actually constructed, e.g. the 2004 traffic study estimated 48 dwelling units while the actual build-out was 38 dwelling units. This also contributed to the lower overall traffic volumes the site is generating. The development is proposing a drive through associated with the coffee shop. The design accommodates the stacking of 14 vehicles, or approximately 270 feet. Sec. 20-292 of City Ordinance requires coffee shops supply at a minimum 13 vehicles, or 260 feet of stacking length. Additionally, the drive through design accommodates stacking as to not interfere with vehicular circulation in the parking lot, nor encroachment into any required drive aisles. The traffic memo provided by the applicant states “Information from the coffee shop operator indicates the maximum vehicle (stacking) is estimated at 10 vehicles from 6:30 to 7:30 a.m. with an average order time of three minutes”. As such, the drive through meets the requirements of Sec. 20-292. However, staff recommends that the applicant review with their design team the configuration of the drive through as snow storage and maintenance along with turning movements for larger vehicles may be difficult to manage. Pedestrian access improvements are being proposed throughout the site by the applicant which tie into the surrounding sidewalk network within the PUD and the trail network in the adjacent right-of-way. The applicant will be required to enter into the necessary encroachment and maintenance agreements for where private sidewalks encroach in public easements as well any permits or agreements with Carver County for where private sidewalks encroach within their right-of-way (CSAH 101). Carver County did provide development review comments on March 9, 2023; all comments and/or conditions associated with Carver County’s review must be adhered to by the applicant. It should be noted that a Carver County right-of-way permit will be required with this project. EASEMENTS The property proposed for development at 680 Southwest Village Drive was platted in 2007 Block 1 Lot 2 of Southwest Village). At that time typical public drainage and utility easements were provided with the platting of the subdivision. No additional public easements are required with the site plan approval. However, as mentioned previously under “Access” of this report, the applicant will be required to enter into encroachment and maintenance agreements for any private improvements located within public easements. From the plans provided, this would include an existing monument sign at the southwest corner of the site as well as proposed sidewalks on the north, east, and south sides of the site. Additionally, a maintenance agreement in a form acceptable to the Fire Department must be provided for the proposed emergency vehicle access located near the northeast corner of the site within Outlot A of Southwest Village. 45278 Page 14 of 22 Private cross access easement and declarations for parking and access have already been recorded to benefit the development in October of 2019 (Doc. No. A586005). This would include 50 reserved parking spaces for the site on the lower level of the adjacent parking ramp, use of the private street for ingress/egress, etc. GRADING & DRAINAGE The existing undeveloped lot of the Southwest Village is relatively flat with a slight slope from east to west where it drains to the State Trunk Highway 101 (TH101) right of way. Minimal grading is required of the site. There is no existing impervious on the undeveloped lot. The Southwest Village development was designed for the future building to discharge to storm sewer in the parking lot east of the undeveloped lot where it then is routed to storm sewer in Great Plains Boulevard and ultimately to a MnDOT owned pond. In the proposed condition, drainage from the drive-thru roadway and building will be collected and routed to an underground chamber and cistern for storage. The outlet of the underground chamber is proposed to connect into the existing storm sewer in the parking lot to the east. A Contech Jellyfish Filter is proposed to be constructed on the existing storm sewer downstream of the new connection in order to provide additional water quality treatment prior to discharge into the Great Plains Boulevard System. Runoff from pervious areas around the building will either be graded to drain to the underground chamber system or will continue to drain directly to the TH101 right of way. All onsite storm sewer and best management practices (BMPs) will be privately owned and maintained. EROSION CONTROL The proposed development will exceed one (1) acre of disturbance and will, therefore, be subject to the General Permit Authorization to Discharge Stormwater Associated with Construction Activity Under the National Pollution Discharge Elimination/State Disposal System (NPDES Construction Permit). All erosion control shall be installed and inspected by city staff prior to initiation of site grading activities. A stormwater pollution prevention plan (SWPPP) was not 46279 Page 15 of 22 included in the submitted plan set but will be required to outline the erosion control and sediment prevention plan for the site. The SWPPP is a required element of site plans with over 5,000 square feet of disturbance. STORM WATER MANAGEMENT Article VII, Chapter 19 of City Code describes the required storm water management development standards. Section 19-141 states that “these development standards shall be reflected in plans prepared by developers and/or project proposers in the design and layout of site plans, subdivisions and water management features.” These standards include abstraction of runoff and water quality treatment resulting in the removal of 90% total suspended solids (TSS) and 60% total phosphorous (TP). The proposed project is located within the Riley Purgatory Bluff Creek (RPBCWD) and is therefore subject to the watershed’s rules and regulations. A Stormwater Management Report dated February 17, 2023 was submitted by the applicant to the city and provided to the watershed district concurrently as part of the final plat review. Comments provided by the RPBCWD must be addressed and a permit from RPBCWD is required prior to construction. The site is within RPBCWD and is required to meet all applicable watershed rules which includes volume abstraction of 1.1 inches of runoff from all new or fully reconstructed impervious areas. Soil borings were submitted dated February 10, 2023, which included four soil borings onsite that showed clayey sand throughout the lot. Based on the clayey sands present onsite, the applicant noted this is a restricted site and that the full volume abstraction could not be provided onsite due to the unsuitable soils. The applicant proposes going through sequencing and providing 0.55 inches of runoff from all new and fully reconstructed impervious areas, in line with the RPBCWD rules and meeting water quality requirements onsite. The required volume abstraction onsite is 0.55 inches of runoff from the 0.58 acres of regulated impervious totaling 1,157 cubic feet. The applicant is meeting the volume abstraction requirement through use of an underground cistern and water reuse system, and minimal infiltration at the bottom of the underground chamber system. The underground cistern and water reuse system provide 933 cubic feet of volume abstraction based on the storage of the underground cistern. An additional 320 cubic feet of volume abstraction is provided in the 40% void space of the bottom 0.2 feet of the underground chamber system, below the outlet pipe. This infiltration area is shown to draw down within 48 hours assuming an infiltration rate of 0.06 inches per hour based on the geotechnical report. Between these two BMPs, 1,253 cubic feet of volume abstraction are provided. Additional information on the water reuse and irrigation system is requested in order to confirm there is enough runoff to supply the water intended to be used for reuse. Assuming that the 0.5 acres of greenspace of the site intended to be irrigated is irrigated 0.5" per week, it appears the entire cistern volume is needed (933 cf) to supply one week's worth of irrigation volume (966 cf). This makes the system heavily reliant on a consistent rainfall to be used. Minimal impact design standards (MIDS) modeling was provided and reviewed to confirm the site is providing the required 90% TSS and 60% TP removal requirements. The site is currently shown to meet the required water quality requirements through use of the water reuse system, underground chamber and Jellyfish Filter, however, there were multiple inconsistencies in the modeling between MIDS and HydroCAD. These inconsistencies should be resolved, and the 47280 Page 16 of 22 water quality requirements should be confirmed to still be met once the modeling has been updated. Electronic copies of the P8 model used to populate the MIDS inputs must be provided for review with future submittals. The Stormwater Management Report and supporting Hydrologic and Hydraulic HydroCAD models were reviewed. The HydroCAD modeling shows the site is meeting rate control to each of the discharge points for the 2-, 10-, and 100-year storm events. The applicant shall provide final versions of all modeling (HydroCAD, MIDS and P8) and SWMP report to address remaining minor comments and confirm rate, volume and water quality requirements are still being met as part of the final site plan approval. As outlined in the city’s Surface Water Management Plan adopted in December 2018, the city requires at least 3 feet of freeboard between a building elevation and adjacent ponding features. Based on the HydroCAD modeling results all proposed buildings are meeting freeboard requirements with respect to the proposed BMPs. The proposed BMPs are to be privately owned and therefore will require an Operations and Maintenance (O&M) Agreement and associated plan. The plan will need to identify the maintenance schedule, responsible party, and should include information on how the system will be cleaned out including the underground infiltration chambers proposed in the construction plans. The proposed BMPs are located outside of drainage and utility easement. UTILITIES The site has access to sanitary sewer and water mains abutting the property to the east within the existing parking lot. The applicant is proposing to tap into the existing 8” PVC and 8” Ductile Iron sanitary sewer and water mains, respectively, to service the needs of the site. These utility mains are privately owned and maintained and were originally constructed in 2007. The location of hydrants and other construction plan related comments and concerns must be addressed by the applicant and their Engineer. Final construction plans will be subject to review and approval by staff prior to recording of the site plan agreement. LANDSCAPING The applicant for Southwest Village did not submit tree preservation calculations as there are no significant trees on the lot, except behind the monument sign and near the pergola area The development is proposing buffer areas along the north, south, east and west property lines. The minimum requirements are shown in the table. Required plantings/landscape area Proposed plantings Bufferyard B – East prop. line, 533’ 8 Overstory trees 16 Understory trees 24 Shrubs 13 Overstory trees 15 Understory trees 68 Shrubs 48281 Page 17 of 22 The applicant does meet bufferyard requirements. Note that they are lacking 1 understory tree, but have more overstory trees than the minimum required. The landscape plan might meet tree diversity requirements, but since they have not listed the quantities of each of the individual trees, we cannot know for certain. The planting schedule should reflect that no one species will comprise more than 10% of total trees to be planted, no genus will have more than 20% of total trees and no one tree family will have more than 30% of total trees. LIGHTING/SIGNAGE The applicant is proposing architectural lighting on the building. This lighting must be downcast and have a 90-degree cutoff angle. Uplighting is prohibited. Additionally, the applicant is proposing the use of area lighting, Lumark Revail LED. However, area lighting within the development is limited to decorative lighting. Lighting for the interior of the development shall be consistent throughout the development. High pressure sodium vapor lamps or LED with decorative natural colored pole shall be used throughout the development parking lot area for lighting. Decorative, pedestrian scale lighting shall be used in plaza and sidewalk areas and may be used in parking lot areas. Light fixtures shall remain consistent with the approved and existing lighting within the development. The applicant is proposing wall signage on the east and west elevations of the building. Such signage must comply with the Southwest Village sign standards. Signage is also being proposed on the south side of the building over the pickup window. Locating signage in this area requires an amendment to the PUD standards, as discussed above. Signage on the north side of the building is permitted provided this is an entrance to the tenant space. The applicant is proposing adding tenant signage over the development entrance sign. Such signage is in violation of section i. 2. and i. 7. of development standards. Staff does not believe that this signage is necessary to provide reasonable opportunity for identifying the businesses within the building since signage is provided on the street frontage and entrances to the building. 49282 Page 18 of 22 MISCELLANEOUS Fire: 1. The building will require full fire sprinkler system and fire alarm system to monitor the fire sprinkler system. 2.

Consistent with the County Comprehensive Plan and County Codes, and other official controls of the County, the following are comments and recommended conditions of approval and as potential requirements for any necessary permits to be issued for the project: 1. A response letter to this memo is required by Public Works. Please submit the letter either before or alongside the submission of the required Transportation Impact Analysis. 2. Regarding Access a. The County’s Access Spacing Map in the 2040 Comprehensive Plan (Figure 4.14) identifies this segment of CSAH 101 as Category 5B, which guides full access intersection spacing at ¼ mile intervals and secondary (limited) intersection spacing at 1/8 mile intervals. At approximately 500 ft. south of Crossroads Blvd/TH 212 ramp and approx. 350 north of CSAH 18/Lyman Blvd, CSAH 101/Southwest Village Dr. is not consistent with access spacing guidance. b. No new access onto CSAH 101 is proposed, the right in right out secondary access is what will serve this development for access to and from CSAH 101. Full access at this location will not be considered. 3. Regarding Traffic a. The traffic impact analysis referenced in the submitted application is from 2004 and the background in which this development takes place has changed over time. A transportation impact analysis is required from Public Works due to the above and following thresholds being met. i. Generating approximately 750 or more vehicles trips per day ii. Generating approximately 100 or more vehicle trips in any one hour period b. Verify reported trips being analyzed are correct. There are discrepancies in parking spaces between trip generation memo and the submitted Viking Electric Photometric Layout 76309 document. 4. Regarding Required Permits a. Prior to any work affecting or on County highways or in County right of way (none currently proposed), the applicant shall coordinate plans with the County Engineer and obtain a Utility or Excavating/Filling/Grading Permit(s) from Carver County Public Works: http://www.co.carver.mn.us/how-do-i/apply-for/a-permit). Final details of locations, grades, and profiles affecting County roads as well as any utility connections will need to be reviewed and approved prior to any permits. b. Any damages, modifications, or changes incurred on County highways from current or approved conditions will need to be remedied or updated at the development expense, including costs incurred by the County. These are the County’s comments at this time. If you have any questions or need further assistance, please contact the staff noted below: Jack Johansen Transportation Planner Carver County Public Works 952.466.5283 jjohansen@co.carver.mn.us Angie Stenson AICP Transportation Planning Manager Carver County Public Works 952.466.5273 astenson@co.carver.mn.us Whitney Schroeder, PE PTOE Traffic Engineer Carver County Public Works 952.254.6818 wschroeder@co.carver.mn.us 77310 Metropolitan District Waters Edge Building 1500 County Road B2 West Roseville, MN 55113 An equal opportunity employer MnDOT Metropolitan District, Waters Edge Building, 1500 County Road B2 West, Roseville, MN 55113 March 9, 2023 Bob Generous Senior Planner City of Chanhassen 7700 Market P.O. Box 147 Chanhassen, MN 55317 SUBJECT: MnDOT Review # P23-004 680 South West Village Drive SE Quad US 212 & MN 101/Great Plains Blvd 680 South West Village Drive Chanhassen, Carver County Dear Mr. Generous: Thank you for the opportunity to review the plat and associated plans for the 680 South West Village Drive development. MnDOT has reviewed the documents and has the following comments: Surveys: The Boundary Topographic Survey submitted with the plans shows State Truck Highway No. 312 on the top of the survey. It is actually Highway 212 and this should be corrected. Also the north westerly 40 feet has closed access to TH212 via graphic order 97709. Questions regarding this comment should be directed to Jordan Olson, MnDOT Surveys, jordan.olson@state.mn.us or telephone: 612-297-1168. Right-of-Way: MnDOT wants to advise the developer that when it conveyed the property a drainage easement was retained. It appears the trail may be going through the easement. There may also be a storm sewer that might be impacted. MnDOT has included a clip from Right-of-Way map 200-62D that shows details. Questions concerning this comment should be addressed to: Doug Nelson, MnDOT Right-of- Way, telephone: 651-234-7583 or douglas.nelson@state.mn.us. Pedestrian/Bicycle: MnDOT is pleased to see the developer is proposing connections to the trail network. Please be sure that the connections comply with the American with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements including that all sidewalks are a minimum of four feet wide and that all pedestrian ramps are 78311 MnDOT Metropolitan District, Waters Edge Building, 1500 County Road B2 West, Roseville, MN 55113 ADA compliant. The following links provide information about ADA standards and requirements: https://www.dot.state.mn.us/ada/pdf/mndot-ada-standards.pdf and https://www.dot.state.mn.us/ada/design.html. Curb ramps will need to be installed at all sidewalk points that transition to the parking lot. MnDOT encourages use of directional curb ramps. MnDOT also suggests construction a sidewalk on the north end of the property where there is an existing “goat path” from the intersection to the SW Transit station. This location is parallel to an existing trail. Area bicyclists and pedestrians are likely to be customers and workers in the co-working space. MnDOT encourages the developer to include racks for bicycle parking. In addition, the developer should consider parking lot crossing so that building users can access the facility safely from the sidewalk along MN 101. Please direct questions regarding these comments to Sara Dunlap, MnDOT Multimodal at 651- 234-7725 or sara.dunlap@state.mn.us. Permits: An Access permit will be required for the emergency access-although it may not be allowed. Any other use of, or work within or affecting, MnDOT right of way will require additional permits. Permits can be applied for at this site: https://olpa.dot.state.mn.us/OLPA/. Please upload a copy of this letter when applying for any permits. Please direct questions regarding permit requirements to Buck Craig of MnDOT’s Metro Permits Section at 651-775-0405 or Buck.Craig@state.mn.us. Review Submittal Options MnDOT’s goal is to complete reviews within 30 calendar days. Review materials received electronically can be processed more rapidly. Do not submit files via a cloud service or SharePoint link. In order of preference, review materials may be submitted as: 1. Email documents and plans in PDF format to metrodevreviews.dot@state.mn.us. Attachments may not exceed 20 megabytes per email. Documents can be zipped as well.
