FINDINGS OF FACT
AND RECOMMENDATION
PLANNING CASE #11-02
Ql,
Application of the City of Chanhassen to rezone Parcels 1, 2 and 3 and amend the Ches Mar
Farm/Ches Mar Farm 2nd Addition/Ches Mar Trails Planned Unit Development.
On January 4, 2011, the Chanhassen Planning Commission met at its regularly scheduled
meeting to consider the application of the City of Chanhassen for rezoning of property from
Rural Residential (RR) to Planned Unit Development (PUD). 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
Lot 1 Block 1, Ches Mar Farm 2nd Addition ("Parcel 1") is currently zoned Planned Unit
Development (PUD); however, an ordinance to rezone the property could not be located.
2. The property in the plat of Ches Mar Trails ("Parcel 2") is currently zoned Rural
Residential (RR).
3. The property in the plat of Ches Mar Farm ("Parcel 3") is currently zoned Planned Unit
Development (PUD); however, an ordinance to rezone the property could not be located.
4. The properties are guided in the Land Use Plan for Residential Low Density (1.2 — 4 units
per acre).
5. The Zoning Ordinance directs the Planning Commission to consider six (6) possible
adverse affects of the proposed amendment. The six (6) affects and our findings
regarding them are:
a) The proposed action has been considered in relation to the specific policies and
provisions of and has been found to be consistent with the official City
Comprehensive Plan; including, land use guide of Residential Low -Density.
b) The proposed zoning is or will be compatible with the present and future land
uses of the area.
c) The proposed zoning conforms with all performance standards contained in the
Zoning Ordinance.
SCANNED
d) The proposed zoning will not tend to or actually depreciate the area in which it is
proposed, because it will maintain the development patterns in the area. There
will not be any physical changes to the property required.
e) The proposed zoning can be accommodated with existing public services and will
not overburden the city's service capacity, subject to their availability.
f) Traffic generation by the proposed zoning is within capabilities of streets serving
the property.
6. The proposed zoning is consistent with the guidelines outlined within the comprehensive
plan, including land use guide of Residential Low -Density.
7. The planning report #11-02 dated January 4, 2011, prepared by Angie Kairies is
incorporated herein.
RECOMMENDATION
The Planning Commission recommends that the City Council approve the following:

CHES MAR REZONINGS AND PUD AMENDMENTS: CONSIDER APPROVAL OF
REZONING PROPERTY WITHIN CHES MAR FARM, CHES MAR FARM 2 ND
ADDITION AND CHES MAR TRAILS TO PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT (PUD);
APPLICANT: CITY OF CHANHASSEN.
Kate Aanenson: Mayor, members of the City Council. This item appeared before the Planning
Commission on January 4`h and they unanimously recommended approval 5-0. The Ches Mar
Farm is located off of Hazeltine Boulevard, just north of Camp Tanadoona and south of the
Minnewashta Regional Park. This area, the underlying area around this is zoned rural residential
and does not have any utility services to it. This parcel was brought to our attention, the three
parcels as the Ches Mar, was brought to our attention when someone called in for a zoning
information and we realized some ambiguity in the three different plats so it's before you today
and really to simplify, similar to what we've done with the industrial property where we actually
went back and had the PUD tied back to a specific, because there were no ordinances attached.
We're tying this back to the underlying rural residential but for a couple anomalies which I'll
speak to in a second. So the reason for the request is that we noticed the mapping area. Again
we are the keeper of the mapping so if someone calls in to get zoning information for refinancing
it needs to be correct and noted what their rights are with the property. So on researching these
three plats the inconsistencies were determined and the purpose is to clarify the underlying
zoning district, specifically the rural residential for the three parcels. The Ches Mar Farm, Ches
Mar 2°d Addition and Ches Mar Trails. Also within that the anomalies then would be, there is an
existing stable on the property that, in that district, we're going to make it, because it's already
there, an accessory use rather than a conditional use because as long as that property stays in the
rural residential, that horse property will stay there. So these are the number of parcels that are
involved in all of the rezoning in itself so there's three outlots included in there, but they are
different plats and that's where the little mess occurred. So over time there was a couple of
subdivisions in place for this parcel and to correct that we're going to kind of go back through
each of the different plats to show you how it worked and so these are the three parcels that were
in place. The Ches Mar Farms, which had a number of properties on it, which I'll go through in
a minute. The Ches Mar Farms 2"d Addition and then the Ches Mar Trails. So for the history of
it the Ches Mar Farms in and of itself was done in April, 1986 and that was actually done
because there was, it was an R-1 at that time. Was given a PUD to accommodate the fact there
was multiple units out there. There were 12 parcels so I tried to parcel those out and in order to
do that our ordinance allows for multiple units on one parcel using the PUD tool so it was done
that. The problem that happened is it wasn't tied to an underlying zoning. We couldn't find that
ordinance so to clarify too, before we did this rezoning with the Planning Commission, a notice
went out to all the property owners explaining in detail what we intended to do and clarify. We
met with all of those so some of them did show up to the Planning Commission but, so they were
given a lot of notice and it does resolve some of their issues with the parcel in the fact that there
are some non conforming uses on the property that will remain in place that we've addressed. So
again it was a 12 acre parcel. It was split into 4 so each parcel had their own property. From that
�11
SCANNED
Chanhassen City Council - January 24, 2011
additional splits took place. So the 2"d Addition came in and that was Ches Mar Farms 2"d and
the intent of this was to subdivide 22.8 acres into 2 lots. Again this time when the RR zoning
was in place. Again no ordinance was applied. And then in 1991 an additional development was
created. At that time the City Council stated that they could meet the conditions of the RR and
wanted to do that but again there's no record of the ordinance in place. So what this does, takes
all those ordinances and creates it all PUDR so they all have that same zoning. The one piece
that was left off, that just left RR, we made it all PUD. It makes it easier. The underlying
property owner's comfortable with that so they all are PUD with the underlying standards of the
Rural Residential. The only other thing that changed will be on the ordinance part of it self and
that was that we did allow under the no noted, under permitted use on Lot 1, Block 2, they can
continue to use as a twin. A duplex up there and that property owner was at the Planning
Commission meeting so that twin home will continue on that property as long as it stays in the
state it's in now. And then the other would be the accessory use and rather the conditional use
for the stable which has always been there. It's rather than conditional use, that lot will be an
accessory use. So it does meet all the conditions of the PUD and the RR so with that we are
clarifying the property itself. Putting together an ordinance so if someone wants to find out
what's permitted on their property and what's it zoned, we have that legal document for them so
it's really a clean up. So with that I'd be happy to answer any questions that you may have.
Mayor Furlong: Thank you. Questions for city staff. None? Okay. Very good. Thank you and
thank you Ms. Aanenson for your efforts there and for the Planning Commission's as well. Any
thoughts? Comments. Or would somebody like to make a motion? Councilwoman Ernst.

Ches Mar Farms 2"d Addition, Parcel 2, Ches Mar Trails and Parcel 3, Ches Mar Farms to
Planned Unit Development, PUD adoption of attached ordinance and adoption of Planning

Mayor Furlong: We'll give it to Councilman Laufenburger.
Councilman Laufenburger: It's a longer name than Tjornhom.
Mayor Furlong: It is.
Todd Gerhardt: Poor Nann.
Mayor Furlong: Well Tjornhom, I mean come on. There isn't an Anderson or Johnson among
us is there? Motion's been made and seconded. It is getting late if no one can tell. Any
discussion on the motion? Seeing none we'll proceed with the vote.

SUPPORT OF A NOMINATION FOR METRO CITIES BOARD.
Mayor Furlong: Mr. Laufenburger, you asked that this be put on.
Councilman Laufenburger: Yes Mr. Mayor. I'd like to move that the Chanhassen City Council
extend support for Councilwoman Vicki Ernst's nomination for filling a current vacant and
unexpired term on the Board of Directors Metro Cities Board Minnesota.
Mayor Furlong: Thank you. Is there a second?
Councilman McDonald: I'll second.
Mayor Furlong: Motion's been made and seconded. Discussion, Mr. Gerhardt. Can you give us
a little background on the.
Todd Gerhardt: Yeah, we are a member of the Metro Cities Board. Metro Cities advocates on
behalf of their members in the metro area. Those cities that have decided to join Metro Cities.
Each year Metro Cities develops a list of legislative priorities to advocate on behalf of it's
members and they also have appointment authority to the Transportation Advisory Board, the
Technical Advisory Commission, and a couple other organizations. The Metro GIS Policy
Board and a Grant Evaluation and Ranking System. Metro Cities, we've been a member
probably for 25 plus years.
Mayor Furlong: Thank you. Any discussion to the motion? And so there'd be an application
present. We don't have opportunity to make the appointment. We're just supporting your
application.
Todd Gerhardt: Just so council understands. There's one vacancy right now and there will be
additional vacancies in April so, my guess is the motion included to apply for this vacancy and
then the one in April also.
Mayor Furlong: Sure. That'd be fine.
Todd Gerhardt: Since we're clarifying all motions tonight.
Councilman Laufenburger: It is. I'd just like to say this that I think that it's important for
Chanhassen as one of the 80 members of this Metro Cities, it's important that we seek and take
advantage of every opportunity to represent our interests amongst the legislative influencing
bodies and this is a good opportunity to do so and I've heard from the Director, Executive
Director Patricia Nowman that this would not incorrectly imbalance the make-up of the Board so

PROPOSED MOTION
"The Chanhassen City Council approves the rezoning of Parcel 1 (Lot 1, Block
1, Ches Mar Farms 2°d Addition), Parcel 2 (Ches Mar Trails), and Parcel 3
(Ches Mar Farm) to Planned Unit Development (PUD); adoption of attached
ordinance; and adoption of the Planning Commission's Findings of Fact."
City Council approval requires a majority vote of City Council.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The City is proposing the rezoning of those properties located within the Plats of
Ches Mar Farm, Ches Mar Farm 2°d Addition and Ches Mar Trails to Planned Unit
Development. An inconsistency between the intended zoning and the City Zoning
Map was discovered. The intent of the rezoning is to clarify the zoning and uses
within the district, specify the Rural Residential Zoning District as underlying
zoning district for the Ches Mar Farm, Ches Mar Farm 2°d Addition, and Ches
Mar Trails PUD, and to permit private stables as an accessory use within the
Planned Unit Development.
PLANNING COMMISSION SUMMARY
The Planning Commission held a public hearing on January 4, 2011. The
Commission voted unanimously (5 — 0) to recommend approval of the rezoning.
The Planning Commission discussed the option of not rezoning Lot 1, Block 1, Ches
Mar Farm 2°d Addition to Rural Residential and keeping it as part of the overall
Planned Unit Development, as it is currently shown on the City Zoning Map.
By incorporating this property into the PUD, this will eliminate having a single
property zoned Rural Residential surrounded by properties zoned Planned Unit
Development.
The underlying zoning district of the PUD is the Rural Residential (RR) zoning
district. If the PUD is silent on an issue or design standard, the RR zoning district
standards will apply. Additionally, the PUD will pen -nit private stables as an
accessory use.

The City has a relatively high level of discretion in approving amendments to PUDs because the City is
acting in its legislative or policy -making capacity. A PUD amendment must be consistent with the
City's Comprehensive Plan.
PROPOSAL/SUMMARY
Staff discovered inconsistencies between the "City of Chanhassen Zoning Map" and the intended zoning
of the subject properties located within the Ches Mar Farm 2" d Addition and Ches Mar Trails Addition.
Staff is proposing to rezone the subject properties and correct the zoning map to reflect the correct
zoning of the properties as approved by City Council.
The Ches Mar Farm 2°d Addition property is currently depicted as Planned Unit Development Residential
(PUDR); . Staff is proposing to
incorporate this parcel as part of the overall PUD and not rezone it.
The southern properties of the Ches Mar Trails addition are currently depicted as Rural Residential (RR);
however, those properties were intended to be zoned Planned Unit Development Residential (PUDR).
Current Zoning Map
PUDR = Yellow
RR = Green
While the Ches Mar Farm subdivision is depicted correctly on the zoning map as PUD, There is no
record of an ordinance rezoning this property. Therefore, staff is proposing to rezone the properties
within the Ches Mar Farm plat.
Since the Zoning Map is an official map that has been adopted in accordance with City Code,
amendments to the zoning map must be approved by City Council following a public hearing and
recommendation by the Planning Commission.
In addition to rezoning the properties, staff is proposing to amend the Ches Mar Farm/Ches Mar Farm 2°d
Additon/Ches Mar Trails Planned Unit Development (PUD) to reference the (RR) Rural Residential zoning
district to be consistent with the surrounding properties Paden.
Staff is also proposing to permit private stables as an accessory use.

BACKGROUND
On April 7, 1986, the Chanhassen City Council approved the final plat and rezoning of the Ches Mar
Farm Addition (Blue) from R-la to Planned Unit Development Residential (PUDR).
Originally, there were multiple structures located on a single 12-acre parcel. These structures included:
• Four principal structures, all rentals: two single-family dwellings; one two-family dwelling; and
one multiple dwelling containing six apartment units.
• Four accessory structures: one underground structure, a barn, a garage, and a work shop.
The intent of the Ches Mar Farm PUD was to subdivide the 12-acre parcel into four parcels and place
each principal building on its own lot and eliminate the non -conforming status of the existing structures.
The PUD allowed for both single-family and multi -family dwelling units. Ches Mar Farm is currently
zoned PUDR, and is shown correctly on the City of Chanhassen Zoning Map. There is no record of an
ordinance rezoning this property.

On October 23, 1989, the Chanhassen City Council approved the final plat of the Ches Mar Farm 2nd
Addition (Green) zoned Rural Residential. The intent of this addition was to subdivide 22.8 acres into
two lots that meet the Rural Residential (RR) zoning district standards.
On July 8, 1991, the Chanhassen City Council approved the final plat for the Ches Mar Trails
Addition (yellow striped). This addition is a combination of Ches Mar Farm (PUDR) and Ches Mar
Farm 2nd Addition (RR) properties. The Council approved an amendment to the existing Ches Mar
Farm PUD to create four single-family lots and one outlot (beachlot), platted as Ches Mar Trails.
REZONING
In October 2010, staff received a call regarding the zoning of a property located within the Ches Mar
Trails subdivision and noticed that the City Zoning Map depicted the property incorrectly. Staff further
researched the Ches Mar Trails subdivision and noticed that the southern properties in the development
were inconsistent with the 1991 City Council action to rezone the properties from Rural Residential
(RR) to Planned Unit Development Residential (PUDR). Staff is proposing to rezone those properties to
PUDR and correct the City's Zoning Map.

Additionally, the remaining property within the Ches Mar Farm 2nd Addition is ineerreratly depicted as
PUDR. The zoning of that property was never changed from Rural Residential (RR). However, Staff is
proposing to leave Lot 1, Block 1, Ches Mar Farm 2"d Addition as Planned Unit Development and
incorporate it as part of the overall Planned Unit Development, as it is currently shown on the City Zoning
Map.
By incorporating this property into the PUD, this will eliminate having a single Rural Residential zoned
property surrounded by properties zoned Planned Unit Development Additionally, all of the properties within
the three plats will maintain the Rural Residential zoning district as the underlying zoning and permit private
stables as an accessory use. ro a that PFOPeFty to RR and e erat the C ty's Zoning Map.

Staff was unable to locate an ordinance to rezone Ches Mar Farms to PUD; therefore, in order to correct

Ches Mar Trails, Ches Mar Farm 2°d Addition, and Ches Mar Farm to Planned Unit Development
Residential (PUDR):

The City is also proposing to incorporate a the following property as part of the overall €fem-

Currently, the Ches Mar Farm/Ches Mar Trails Planned Unit Development (PUD) states; "Except as
specifically provided herein, the PUD shall comply with the standards and requirements of the A2,
Agricultural Estate District, zoning classification as may be amended." Staff is proposing to amend this
language to reference the (RR) Rural Residential zoning district to be consistent with the surrounding
properties o of the C= M � 2�
and t� Mien.
Private stables are a permitted accessory structure in the A2 District and a Conditional Use in the RR
district. Staff is proposing an amendment to permit private stables as an accessory use within the PUD.
The Ches Mar Farm 2"d Addition will also maintain these PUD Standards.

Planning Commission Meeting passed concept plan to the City Council with Comments:
■ Agrees with staff that the proposal does not meet rural lot standards.
■ Agrees that something should be done with the site, but does not feel this is appropriate
plan. Economic hardship does not justify small lots.
■ Agrees that something should be done but ordinance is should and cannot justify amending
the rules.
Does not approve of plan. Is taking advantage of PUD designation. Is increasing the use and
should meet rural lot standards.
Original PUD accommodated existing uses. Now proposing urban subdivision in rural area.
Not appropriate to count outlot, which cannot be subdivided, in the density calculation.
July 11, 1988
City Council Update: the applicant presented a new plan to the City Council meeting which increased the
lot size and reduced the number of lots. Since staff and the Planning Commission had not reviewed the

Geri Eikaas 2763 Ches Mar Farm Road
Tom Dyvig 7250 Hazeltine Boulevard
Kairies: Yes Chairman Aller, members of the Planning Commission. The item before you
tonight is the proposed rezoning of Ches Mar Farms, Ches Mar Farms 2°d Addition and Ches
Mar Farm Trails. The properties are bordered by Minnewashta Regional Park to the north,
Camp Tanadoona to the south, Highway 41 to the east and Lake Minnewashta to the west. On
the side, the way, I just want to point out how each plat is broken up. The blue parcels are part
of the Ches Mar Farm Addition. The green property is, which is kind of hard to differentiate, the
property most to the west, or I'm sorry to the east is Ches Mar Farm 2"d Addition, and then the
properties in yellow are part of the Ches Mar Trails Addition. The reason for the request before
you tonight is that staff noted that there was a mapping error and did some research and upon
that research it was noted that there were some inconsistencies with the approved plats and that
they're inconsistent with the actual zoning map so the intentions were not consistent with one
7
:CANNED
Chanhassen Planning Commission - January 4, 2011
another. The proposed rezonings before you tonight is to clarify the zoning and the uses within
the planned unit development in each of the districts. Also to specify that the Rural Residential
zoning district would be the underlying district and back in early 2010 I believe it was, we did
this with all of the planned unit developments in the commercial district so that if there was an
issue or something that the planned unit development was silent on, there was an underlying
zoning district to go back to and those standards would then apply. And also to permit, excuse
me private stables as an accessory use within this planned unit development rather than require a
conditional use permit. And just as a note, here are the existing conditions and the layout of the
acreage within the entire Ches Mar area. As you can see that the reason for the planned unit
development is because the properties are less than 2 t/2 acres. Some of them are. Some of them
are larger. And they'll include 3 outlots, one of which is a beachlot and has a conditional use
permit for that beachlot. And again just to clarify, the properties that we're rezoning, again the
blue is the Ches Mar Farm Addition. The very light green is the Ches Mar Farm 2° Addition
and the yellow is the Ches Mar Trails. I'm going to go ahead and give you a little background
on how this all began. In April of 1986 the Ches Mar Farms plat was approved and it was
approved for rezoning from R1A, which is Rural Residential to a Planned Unit Development.
And the purpose of this was because there was a single 12 acre parcel with 4 principal structures
and 4 accessory structures located on that parcel, and what happened was the parcel was
subdivided so that each principal structure had it's own lot and that brought that non -conform, or
the non -conformity went away by doing that. Unfortunately there is no record of the rezoning of
that property and that is one of the reasons we're here today so that we have a record of that. In
October of 1989 the Ches Mar Farms 2°d Addition was approved and it was approved as a Rural
Residential zoning district, and the purpose of that was to subdivide 22.8 acres into 2 lots and
again those lots met the Rural Residential standards. And in the striped, I hope you can see it, in
July of 1991 the Ches Mar Trails Addition was approved and what that was a combination of the
Ches Mar Farm PUD and the Ches Mar Farms 2°d Addition Rural Residential properties. There
was also an amendment to the Ches Mar Farm PUD as a part of this and this created 4 single
family lots and one beachlot, and again there is no record of the rezoning of these properties to
Planned Unit Development. As stated in the staff report the intent is to eliminate the
inconsistencies between the intent of the zoning and what the zoning map actually portrays. So
Option A is to rezone Ches Mar Farm and Ches Mar Trails to Planned Unit Development as was
intended originally, and to rezone, what do I have here? Rezone Ches Mar Farms 2°d Addition to
Rural Residential. Currently it's shown as Planned Unit Development and the intent was to
leave it as Rural Residential. Upon further research staff found another option that may be
viable which would be to leave the Ches Mar Farms 2°d Addition as a Planned Unit Development
and incorporate it into the entire Planned Unit Development so that all of the Ches Mar area
would be consistent. It would all have the same underlying zoning district of Rural Residential.
It would all allow horses as a permitted accessory use and it still incorporates the smaller lots.
None of the lot lines are going to change. Everything physical on the site will remain the
same. So again that would be just leaving Ches Mar Farms 2° Addition as a Planned Unit
Development. And here I just wanted to put up so you can see the differences. Unfortunately
this is a little lighter but again in Option A would be to rezone everything to PUD except for,
except for the 2°d Addition which would be rezoned to Rural Residential. Or Option B, keep
everything as Planned Unit Development and rezone those first two. So there are two
recommendations before you tonight. The first again is Option A. Rezone Ches Mar Farms and
Ches Mar Trails to Planned Unit Development and rezone Ches Mar Farms 2°d Addition to Rural
0
03,tN::�3
Chanhassen Planning Commission - January 4, 2011
Residential and adoption of the Findings of Fact. Or Option B which would be to rezone Ches
Mar Farm, Ches Mar Farm 2°d Addition and Ches Mar Trails all to Planned Unit Development
and adoption of the Findings of Fact and Recommendation. At this time I would be happy to
answer any questions that you have.
Aller: I'm going to jump in and just make sure I'm clear on the point that the actual use of the
properties, regardless of A or B will not be changed?
Kairies: Correct.
Aller: So there's no impact to the actual residents or owners of the property by our rezoning at
this point?
Kairies: Correct.
Aller: Okay.
Aanenson: And maybe Angie didn't give you this in the background but a letter went out ahead
of time to the property owners informing them of this. Again the legal implications of the zoning
map is our official tool and in researching this we came up, we discovered the problem so a letter
went out to the, to all the property owners ahead of this hearing to tell them about the direction
that the staff wanted to do, because we're the initiator of it. The City is to fix this problem with
the map so, so that letter went out to the neighbors explaining just exactly what you said
Chairman. Is that the intent is not to change anybody's lots. Anybody's use but to clarify the
zoning map and make sure that it's correct. So if someone was to do research on a piece of
property for example there are some non -conforming structures out there and that's why the
PUD was put in place. So if someone was ever to sell that, you want to have that record in place.
Aller: So in fact it will actually make it easier for those individuals and property owners now...
Aanenson: Correct. Correct. And to show that they are legal non -conforming. They have that
right.
Aller: Thank you. We'll start on the other side. Kevin.
Ellsworth: Thank you Mr. Chair. Angie this, I read this a couple times and I'm apparently not
very bright because it's kind of confusing to me.
Aanenson: It's complex.
Ellsworth: I guess you had the history here and trying to describe what had happened. It seems
the one parcel was listed as a PUD and it shouldn't have been and the other parcel was listed as
Rural Residential and should have been PUD. How, how could that happen or where is the
original documentation that talked about the requirements of a PUD? Isn't there quite a few
different things you have to go through to get a PUD and all kinds of requirements and things?
N
Chanhassen Planning Commission - January 4, 2011
didn't see any of that and it seems like we're just going to go ahead and approve this and we just
created a PUD without a whole lot of discussion.
Kairies: As part of the original PUD it was lacking a lot of that documentation and so what we
did is we took anything that outside of the Rural Residential standards, because that would be the
underlying, and incorporated those into what would be the new permitted uses. So that would
include the stables. That also includes this lot here, which is Lot, call it C. Thank you. Which
doesn't meet the 2 1/2 acres and it also contains an existing two dwelling unit, so that is a
permitted use as part of the PUD. And that was original and that will stay in but there really
wasn't very, there really wasn't documentation for standards for the original Planned Unit
Development.
Ellsworth: So do we by this action have to create and document those standards that will be in
place now under the new PUD or the PUD that should have been there? I didn't see those in the
packet.
Kairies: It should be an attachment.
Ellsworth: Maybe I just didn't recognize it.
Kairies: And it doesn't look like the typical Planning Unit Development because it doesn't have
a lot of variation from the Rural Residential standards.
Ellsworth: So where in here would it be? I mean I did read this front to back and I guess I didn't
recognize it as such.
Aanenson: It's actually the ordinance.
Kairies: Right.
Aanenson: It's actually the ordinance and so what happened before is there's history, just to be
clear. There is record of the Minutes that it went to the meeting. What we're missing was the
ordinance and the rules that, so you know there's a record that there was a public hearing.
There's a record that there was a public hearing and there was a record of Minutes but what you
need to do is adopt your ordinance and within that ordinance, as Angie said, like when we did
the, all the industrial ones, there needs to be an underlying zoning district that sets up the
standards. So we're acknowledging that those uses are in place. They're non -conforming but
we're saying that they still have to meet the RR setback except for the exceptions that Angie
stated and that would be for the stable and the other one already has a Conditional Use Permit.
Right now horses in the Rural Residential are, would need a Conditional Use Permit so we're
taking that burden off of that one. But the rest of them would still follow that so whatever they
have legal non -conforming, even if it was Rural Residential, it would be legal non -conforming.
So the PUD what it does is takes all those mix of uses as was put in the background and record
them as there are on the record. And I think the timeline is really where you find out the detail
and that's where Angie spent most of her time is putting together the whole timeline. It shows
you the history of the documentation that's out there.
10
Chanhassen Planning Commission - January 4, 2011
Ellsworth: But wouldn't the ordinance then need to spell out what those exceptions or
grandfathered items are, and I don't see that in the ordinance.
Kairies: If there were separate motions for a Conditional Use Permit, that's it's own thing. If
there was an exception for a variance, that's it's own thing. It doesn't need to be part of this
PUD.
Ellsworth: Okay. Those exist elsewhere?
Kairies: Right. Right. They're their own motion and those are still existing and will remain the
way.
Ellsworth: Alright. Very helpful, thank you.
Aanenson: Yeah, and that was part of the purpose of putting the time line in I think just to show
you all those things too so. Again when someone's financing some of this is where the record
the bank's going to go to to say what's on the property? What do we have documentation of so
this is something that we just need to get fixed so. I just want to make one more clarification.
So when we looked at the two options, I think Angie did a good job explaining the difference
between and, we'd have a donut hole and typically we don't like to see that. Leaving the one RR
so rethinking, we came back and said we should really just make the whole thing PUD because
whether it's still going to have the underlying Rural Residential standards and if they wanted to
have horses on that property they could too but it just makes the whole neighborhood consistent
you know for, again so we don't have the Scribner's or interpretation area that it's all PUD with
the underlying zoning district of RR. So the one change on that one was a permitted use which
allowed.
Kairies: Which allowed for the duplex on this property right here.
Aanenson: And that was called out specifically for that one lot.
Kairies: Correct.
Aanenson: That they could have a duplex so then everything else is, that kind of tracks
Commissioner Ellsworth what your issue was. That that was documented then in Option B.
That that could be legitimized as non -conforming.
Kairies: Right, so you should have Option B. That includes the duplex and just not rezoning Lot
1, Block 1, Ches Mar Farms 2nd Addition.
Aller: And because of the way this is done as Option B, my understanding would be, and I'm
asking this as a question. We don't need to re -notice this.
Aanenson: No.
11
Chanhassen Planning Commission - January 4, 2011
Aller: Because it's really just leaving it as it is.
Aanenson: Correct. That's correct. Yes. And re -thinking that, that's kind of where, it is
complex because you had some uses that didn't meet the underlying zoning district that wanted
to make some changes so incrementally they were made. Instead of looking at it holistic so now
we're stepping back and saying really let's look at all three plats and make some sense out of all
three. Without penalizing anybody but just clarifying it.
Aller: Sorry I jumped in Kevin, did you have anything more?
Ellsworth: No, that's it. Thank you Mr. Chairman. That's all.
Aller: Thank you. Kathleen.
Thomas: I don't think I have any questions but I'm happy we came up with Option B because
when I was reading it and I was trying to figure out how we were going to do this and have one
outlying property that was going to be different and I was thinking is there any way we could
combine so I'm happy that there's an Option B now.
Aller: Tom, any thoughts?
Doll: Of letters that went out, what was the response from the residents?
Kairies: I received phone calls and the majority of them were just making sure that we were not
changing anything physically to their properties which includes no further development.
Connections with sewer and water. Just making sure that nothing physically was going to
change to their site. And I believe that there are some homeowners here that may want to speak
to that as well.
Doll: Nothing further.
Undestad: No.
Aller: Okay. Thank you very much. With that we'll open the public hearing portion of the
meeting and anyone that wants to come up and actually speak on this. If you'd come to the
podium and state your name and address, that would be great.
Tom Dyvig: My name is Tom Dyvig and I own the property just to the south. Right there, 7250
Hazeltine Boulevard. I rent that property out but it's going to be developed down the road.
That's kind of my plan 5 years out that I was just clarifying. I think you stated that it's not going
to affect, there's not going to be any changes in the surrounding there. It's just kind of a
clarification. I think I was the one that called today so. That was the only question I had.
Aller: Thank you Mr. Dyvig. Thank you for coming. It answered all your questions?
Tom Dyvig: Yep.

Aller: Great. Anyone else? Ma'am, if you could come forward and state your name and address

I'm very glad for what I heard. Thank you.
Aller: That's always nice to hear. Thank you.
Aanenson: It's confusing but it makes a lot of sense.
Doll: So she was for this?
Aller: For this. Anyone else? Okay, we're going to close the public portion of the hearing.
Comments.
Ellsworth: Mr. Chair, a question for Angie. We talk about no underlying change to the physical
area. Does that mean the Rural Residential piece prevails and the current structures and the
current platting can't change? So when I see PUD I immediately envision you know 30 homes
and all kinds of development. None of that's changing. That was kind of the comments I think I
heard.
Kairies: Right. So if what's there that does not meet the 2'h acres is legal non -conforming or
part of the PUD. Anything new would have to meet the 2'/z acres or it would have to be a PUD
amendment to decrease or to deviate from the RR standards.
Ellsworth: Okay, thank you.
Aanenson: And just another point of clarification. So we don't anticipate any of that happening
unless something was to change down the road and that would maybe being sewer and water.
Then somebody may want to urbanize that area but right now it's not in the near future plans.
Ellsworth: That's all.
Aller: Okay we'll entertain any motions.
Thomas: Okay I'll motion the Chanhassen Planning Commission recommends that the City
Council approves the rezoning of Parcel 1, Lot 1, Block 1, Ches Mar Farms 2°d Addition and
Parcel 2, Ches Mar Trails and Parcel 3, Ches Mar Farm to Planned Unit Development and

PROPOSAL/SUMMARY
Staff discovered inconsistencies between the "City of Chanhassen Zoning Map" and the intended zoning
of the subject properties located within the Ches Mar Farm 2"d Addition and Ches Mar Trails Addition.
Staff is proposing to rezone the subject properties and correct the zoning map to reflect the correct
zoning of the properties as approved by City Council.
The Ches Mar Farm 2"d Addition property is currently depicted as Planned Unit Development Residential
(PUDR); however, the property was intended to be zoned Rural Residential (RR).
The southern properties of the Ches Mar Trails addition are currently depicted as Rural Residential (RR);
however, those properties were intended to be zoned Planned Unit Development Residential (PUDR).
Current Zoning Map
PUDR = Yellow
RR = Green
While the Ches Mar Farm subdivision is depicted correctly on the zoning map as PUD, There is no
record of an ordinance rezoning this property. Therefore, staff is proposing to rezone the properties
within the Ches Mar Farm plat.
Since the Zoning Map is an official map that has been adopted in accordance with City Code,
amendments to the zoning map must be approved by City Council following a public hearing and
recommendation by the Planning Commission.
In addition to rezoning the properties, staff is proposing to amend the Ches Mar Farm/Ches Mar Trails
Planned Unit Development (PUD) to reference the (RR) Rural Residential zoning district to be consistent
with the surrounding properties and the zoning of Ches Mar Farm 2"d Addition. Staff is also proposing to
permit private stables as an accessory use.

BACKGROUND
On April 7, 1986, the Chanhassen City Council approved the final plat and rezoning of the Ches Mar
Farm Addition (Blue) from R-la to Planned Unit Development Residential (PUDR).
Originally, there were multiple structures located on a single 12-acre parcel. These structures included:
Four principal structures, all rentals: two single-family dwellings; one two-family dwelling; and
one multiple dwelling containing six apartment units.
Four accessory structures: one underground structure, a barn, a garage, and a work shop.
The intent of the Ches Mar Farm PUD was to subdivide the 12-acre parcel into four parcels and place
each principal building on its own lot and eliminate the non -conforming status of the existing structures.
The PUD allowed for both single-family and multi -family dwelling units. Ches Mar Farm is currently
zoned PUDR, and is shown correctly on the City of Chanhassen Zoning Map. There is no record of an
ordinance rezoning this property.
On October 23, 1989, the Chanhassen City Council approved the final plat of the Ches Mar Farm 2°d
Addition (Green) zoned Rural Residential. The intent of this addition was to subdivide 22.8 acres into
two lots that meet the Rural Residential (RR) zoning district standards.
Ches Mar Farm 2nd Addition & Ches Mar Trails Rezonings
Planning Case 11-02
January 4, 2011
Page 4of6
On July 8, 1991, the Chanhassen City Council approved the final plat for the Ches Mar Trails
Addition (yellow striped). This addition is a combination of Ches Mar Farm (PUDR) and Ches Mar
Farm 2°d Addition (RR) properties. The Council approved an amendment to the existing Ches Mar
Farm PUD to create four single-family lots and one outlot (beachlot), platted as Ches Mar Trails.
REZONING
In October 2010, staff received a call regarding the zoning of a property located within the Ches Mar
Trails subdivision and noticed that the City Zoning Map depicted the property incorrectly. Staff further
researched the Ches Mar Trails subdivision and noticed that the southern properties in the development
were inconsistent with the 1991 City Council action to rezone the properties from Rural Residential
(RR) to Planned Unit Development Residential (PUDR). Staff is proposing to rezone those properties to
PUDR and correct the City's Zoning Map.
Additionally, the remaining property within the Ches Mar Farm 2°d Addition is incorrectly depicted as
PUDR. The zoning of that property was never changed from Rural Residential (RR). Staff is proposing
to rezone that property to RR and correct the City's Zoning Map.
Current Zoning Map
PUDR = Yellow
RR = Green
Ches Mar Farm 2nd Addition & Ches Mar Trails Rezonings
Planning Case 11-02
January 4, 2011
Page 5 of 6
Proposed Zoning Map
PURR = Yellow
RR = Green
Staff was unable to locate an ordinance to rezone Ches Mar Farms to PUD; therefore, in order to correct
the City Zoning Map, the City is proposing to rezone the following property within the recorded plats of
Ches Mar Trails and Ches Mar Farm to Planned Unit Development Residential (PUDR):
• Ches Mar Farms
and Ches Mar Trails
The City is also proposing to rezone the following property from Planned Unit Development Residential
(PUDR) to Rural Residential (RR):
Lot 1, Block 1, Ches
Mar Farm 2°d
Addition
Currently, the Ches Mar Farm/Ches Mar Trails Planned Unit Development (PUD) states; "Except as
specifically provided herein, the PUD shall comply with the standards and requirements of the A2,
Agricultural Estate District, zoning classification as may be amended." Staff is proposing to amend this
language to reference the (RR) Rural Residential zoning district to be consistent with the surrounding
properties and the zoning of the Ches Mar Farm 2"d Addition.

Private stables are a permitted accessory structure in the A2 District and a Conditional Use in the RR
district. Staff is proposing an amendment to permit private stables as an accessory use within the PUD.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission adopt the following motions:
"The Chanhassen Planning Commission recommends that the City Council approve the rezoning of
Parcel 1 (Lot 1 Block 1, Ches Mar Farms 2nd Addition) from Planned Unit Development (PUD) to

FINDINGS OF FACT
AND RECOMMENDATION
PLANNING CASE #11-02
IN RE:
Application of the City of Chanhassen to rezone Parcels 1, 2 and 3 and amend the Ches Mar
Farm/Ches Mar Trails Planned Unit Development.
On January 4, 2011, the Chanhassen Planning Commission met at its regularly scheduled
meeting to consider the application of the City of Chanhassen for rezoning of property from
Rural Residential (RR) to Planned Unit Development (PUD), and Planned Unit Development
(PUD) to Rural Residential (RR). 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
Lot 1 Block 1, Ches Mar Farms 2"d Addition ("Parcel 1") is currently zoned Planned Unit
Development (PUD).
2. The property in the plat of Ches Mar Trails ("Parcel 2") is currently zoned Rural
Residential (RR).
3. The property in the plat of Ches Mar Farm ("Parcel 3") is currently zoned Planned Unit
Development; however, an ordinance to rezone the property could not be located.
4. The properties are guided in the Land Use Plan for Residential Low Density (1.2 — 4 units
per acre).
5. The Zoning Ordinance directs the Planning Commission to consider six (6) possible
adverse affects of the proposed amendment. The six (6) affects and our findings
regarding them are:
a) The proposed action has been considered in relation to the specific policies and
provisions of and has been found to be consistent with the official City
Comprehensive Plan; including, land use guide of Residential Low -Density.
b) The proposed zoning is or will be compatible with the present and future land
uses of the area.
c) The proposed zoning conforms with all performance standards contained in the
Zoning Ordinance.
d) The proposed zoning will not tend to or actually depreciate the area in which it is
proposed, because it will maintain the development patterns in the area. There
will not be any physical changes to the property required.
e) The proposed zoning can be accommodated with existing public services and will
not overburden the city's service capacity, subject to their availability.
f) Traffic generation by the proposed zoning is within capabilities of streets serving
the property.
6. The proposed zoning is consistent with the guidelines outlined within the comprehensive
plan, including land use guide of Residential Low -Density.
7. The planning report #11-02 dated January 4, 2011, prepared by Angie Kairies is

Ches Mar Farm PUD with recommendations.
1. Enlarge Outlot A to 50 foot width along Lot 2 and to a 40 foot width along Lot 1.
Increase Lot 3 to 2.5 acres
3. Council suggested extending Lot 3 to Lot 4's driveway into Lot 2.
4. Lot 3 needs an additional 30,492 sq ft (.7 acres) to meet the 2.5 acres requirements.
September 25, 1985
PC Meeting — Preliminary Plat #84-2 creating four lots containing multiple residential units on Property
zoned R-1a, Agricultural Residence. Intent of PUD to eliminate the non -conforming status of the existing
structures. The PUD not only allows single family dwellings as a permitted use, but also allows two-
family and multiple family structures as a permitted use.
• Block 1
■ Lot 1 —1.03 acres. This lot is self contained by the park property on the north, Hwy. 41
to the south and a separately owned lot immediately to the south. Because o f its
location, a 2.5 acre minimum lot size cannot be achieved. The lot will contain on single
family dwelling and a garage.
• Block 2
■ Lot 1— 2.4 acres. This lot is the smallest lot in the area of the proposed subdivision.
Increasing the lot area of this lot will necessitate a reduction in the area form Lot 2. Lot
1 will contain the existing two unit structure and an attached garage.
■ Lot 2 — 2.5 acres. As discussed earlier, this lot contains the Herman House and a new
garage will be constructed after removal of the existing shed.

structure, the barn and another accessory building.

June 15, 1988
Planning Commission Meeting passed concept plan to the City Council with Comments:
■ Agrees with staff that the proposal does not meet rural lot standards.
■ Agrees that something should be done with the site, but does not feel this is appropriate
plan. Economic hardship does not justify small lots.
■ Agrees that something should be done but ordinance is should and cannot justify amending
the rules.
■ Does not approve of plan. Is taking advantage of PUD designation. Is increasing the use and
should meet rural lot standards.
Original PUD accommodated existing uses. Now proposing urban subdivision in rural area.
Not appropriate to count outlot, which cannot be subdivided, in the density calculation.
July 11, 1988
City Council Update: the applicant presented a new plan to the City Council meeting which increased the
lot size and reduced the number of lots. Since staff and the Planning Commission had not reviewed the
new plan, the City Council moved to table action until staff and the Planning Commission could review
the new plan. City Council commented that that they felt the site should be improved but that the
sewer and water issues must be fully addressed. The City Council also wanted to see plans for the
development of the outlot (i.e. recreational beachlot. It was also mentioned that he existing density and
minimum lot area of 2.5 acres must be maintained.

CITY OF CHANHASSEN
DEVELOPMENT CONTRACT
AND
PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
AGREEMENT dated October 28
, 1992, by and between the CITY
OF CHANHASSEN, a Minnesota municipal corporation, (the "City"), and
CRAIG T. SWAGGERT and TANNA L. MOORE, husband and wife, (the
"Developer").
1. Request for Plat Approval. The Developer has asked the
City to approve a plat for CHES MAR TRAILS (referred to in this Contract
as the "plat"). The land is legally described on the attached Exhibit A.
2. Request for Planned Unit Development Approval. The
Developer has asked the City to approve the plat and planned unit
development.
3. Conditions of Plat and Planned Unit Development Approval.
The City hereby approves the plat and planned unit development on
condition that the Developer enter into this Contract and abide by its
terms.
4. Development Plan. The plat shall be developed in
accordance with the approved plat.
S. Improvements. The Developer shall install and pay for the
following:
A. Site Grading
B. Underground Utilities (e.g. gas, electric, telephone,
CATV)
C. Setting of Lot and Block Monuments
D. Surveying and Staking
r10/20/92
6. Zoning. Except as specifically provided herein, the PUD
shall comply with the standards and requirements of the A-2, Agricul-
tural Estate District, zoning classification as may be amended.
7. License. The Developer hereby grants the City, its agents,
employees, officers, and contractors a license to enter the plat to
perform all work and inspections deemed appropriate by the City in
conjunction with plat development.
S. Grading, Drainage, and Erosion Control. Before the site is
rough graded, and before any construction is commenced or building
permits are issued, a grading, drainage, and erosion control plan must
be prepared by the Developer and approved by the City. The Developer
shall implement the plan and the City may make periodic inspections to
ensure compliance. The City may impose additional erosion control
requirements if they would be beneficial. All areas disturbed by the
excavation and backfilling operations shall be reseeded forthwith after
the completion of the work in that area. Except as otherwise provided in
the grading, drainage, and erosion control plan, seed shall be certified
seed to provide a temporary ground cover as rapidly as possible. All
seeded areas shall be fertilized, mulched, and disc anchored as
necessary for seed retention. The parties recognize that time is of the
essence in controlling erosion. If the Developer does not comply with
the grading, drainage, and erosion control plan and schedule or
supplementary instructions received from the City, the City may take
such action as it deems appropriate to control erosion at the
Developer's expense. The City will endeavor to notify the Developer in
advance of any proposed action, but failure of the City to do so will
not affect the Developer's and City's rights or obligations hereunder.
-2-
M
No development will be allowed and no building permits will be issued
unless the plat is in full compliance with the approved grading,
drainage, and erosion control plan. Erosion control must be maintained
until vegetative cover has been restored, even if construction has been
completed and accepted. After the Site has been stabilized to where, in
the opinion of the City, there is no longer a need for erosion control,
the City will authorize the removal of the erosion control, i.e. hay
bales and silt fence. The Developer shall remove and dispose of the
erosion control measures.
9. Security. To guarantee compliance with the terms of this
Contract the Developer shall furnish the City with a letter of credit
from a bank, cash escrow, or equivalent ("security") for $2,750.00. The
amount of the security was calculated as 110% of the following:
Drainage Improvement
and Erosion control $ 2,000.00
Engineering, surveying,
and inspection $ 500.00
TOTAL COST
$ 2,500.00
The security shall be furnished the City before the plat is graded or a
building permit issued. The security will be released when the work is
complete. The City may draw down the security, without notice, for any
violation of the terms of this Contract. If the security is drawn down,
the draw shall be used to cure the default. With City approval, the
security may be reduced from time to time as financial obligations are
paid, but in no case shall the security be reduced to a point less than
100 of the original amount until all work is complete and accepted by
the City.
-3-
10. Notices. Required notices to the Developer shall be in

employees or agents, or mailed to the Developer by registered mail at
