MOTION BY: Ernst SECONDED BY: McDonald
A RESOLUTION APPROVING A METES AND BOUNDS SUBDIVISION
CREATING TWO PARCELS
AT 2061 WEST 65TH STREET
WHEREAS, John J. and Kimberly E. Corey have requested a subdivision of the property
into two lots of 15,165 square feet and 15,159 square feet; and
WHEREAS, the Chanhassen City Council held a public hearing on November 24, 2014,
and found the plan consistent with the Chanhassen Comprehensive Plan and Zoning ordinance.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Chanhassen City Council hereby
approves the metes and bounds subdivision of 2061 West 65rd Street (Planning Case #2014-30)
for John J. and Kimberly E. Corey for property legally described as Lot 3, Block 2, Moline's
Addition, Carver County, Minnesota, subject to the following conditions:
Building
1. The existing structure on proposed Parcel 2 must be provided with sanitary sewer connection
— permit required.
2. Properties must be provided with separate sewer and water services.
3. Existing Subsurface Sewage Treatment Site on proposed Parcel 1 must be properly
discontinued and abandoned — permit required.
Engineering
1. The City Attorney shall draft and the developer shall execute a "Grant of Permanent
Easement for Public Drainage and Utility Purposes" document. This document shall be
recorded with the metes and bounds subdivision.
2. A roadway, drainage and utility easement must be dedicated over the portion of the existing
cul-de-sac within the property and 15 feet beyond the edge of the road.
3. Prior to recording the subdivision the developer shall pay the $45 GIS fee: $25 (subdivision)
plus $10/parcel.
4. Prior to recording the subdivision a $10,000 security must be provided to ensure that the
street is restored. The security can be released when the city determines that the patch is in
good condition after one freeze -thaw cycle.
5. Sewer and water hookup charges are due for the new lot, a portion of which shall be collected
before the metes and bounds subdivision is recorded:
Water: 1 unit x $1,886/unit = $1,886
Sewer: 1 unit x $664/unit = $664
6. If the final subdivision submittals are received after 2014, all fees shall be recalculated based
on the rates in effect at that time.
7. The remaining 70% of the sanitary sewer and water hookup fees must be paid with the
building permit at the rate in effect at that time.
8. A plumbing permit is required for the private storm sewer; the plumbing inspector will
inspect the connection to the city storm sewer manhole.
9. On Parcel 1, the proposed home style as required by City Code Section 18-40 (4) 2 (iii) is a
slab -on -grade home. Based on Interstate Geotechnical Engineering's observations, the
groundwater elevation is 1.8 feet below the ground elevation of the soil boring. The
developer must verify the surface elevation of the boring location to determine the elevation
of the groundwater; the lowest floor must be minimum three feet above that elevation per
City Code Section 18-40 (4) 2 (i).

In accordance with your authorization, I have completed the above referenced investigation
to determine site suitability for the proposed construction. A summary of my findings
together with boring logs and my conclusions and recommendations are presented in the
enclosed report.
I found, as you already have been briefed, more than usual problems with the site. There is
a total of 5'/4'& 6'/4 at the locations of Boring I & Probe IA, respectively, of unsuitable soil
in the form of topsoil fill, general and varying fill, and buried original humus. Below at first
is a low sand content lean clay, generally dark in color, saturated, very soft to soft (w/ depth).
It is "normally consolidated" (consolidated enough to only support its own weight, not
additional weight of fill soils or structures above). The overburdening fill has not been
inplace long enough to force further consolidation. The moisture content test in this material
indicated nearly 42%, high for a lean clay. This material extends only from 5'/4 to 7' in
Boring 1, but from 6'/4 to 8'/2' in Probe IA. The first 9" of this material in Probe I is very
soft and is a borderline marl material. All of the aforementioned materials are unsuitable for
structure support should be removed. I do acknowledge that excavators are often reluctant
to excavate further once the buried organic soil is cleared, so understandings should be
inplace at the time of gathering bids.
Base soil below at first is a lean clay, a little sandy, dark gray, saturated, rather soft to
medium. It has inclusions of a poorly graded (biased finer grained) sand with a few fines,
also dark gray, saturated, loose to firm. Deepest soil, commencing at I Pin Boring 1, is a lean
clay, rather sandy, dark gray, low gravel content, medium. Theses materials are glacial rill.
The sand inclusions in the upper portion are glacial outwash. All of these base mineral soils
are suitable for residential construction, with conditions. Refusal to auger advancement was
not encountered by boring termination depth of 23', indicating lack of bedrock to this level.
Very importantly, groundwater was found in the main Boring at 1.8' (elev 961/4±). It is
aquifer groundwater, but marginally so. It appears to be contained primarily in the sand
inclusions at 7'+. But it also is coming from the upper soft and very soft clay, possibly from
SCANNED

the lower organic soil. Proper construction on the site (removing the softer lean clay,
promoting good site drainage) will mitigate some of this. Thus, water found presently can
be regarded as a maximum level. Slab grade of the proposed residence should be set in
accordance with City requirements utilizing this level.
I recommend complete removal of all unsuitable soil which is likely to be the fill and buried
organic soil as encountered plus the overly soft clay found in both the boring and probe.
While this amounts only to another 1 I/4 in the vicinity of Boring 1, it is another 2'+ in the
vicinity of Probe IA. As indicated, excavators may be reluctant to excavate below organic
soil level, but it is necessary (see longer discussion in the report). It is so important that full
time inspection of the excavation by a soils engineer may be necessary. Of course, other
zones of unsuitable soil not represented by the boring and probe could still be encountered
due to the nature of small volume random sampling. Any other depths or zones of unsuitable
soil should be removed as well. You could lower footings somewhat so that you have to
provide less oversizing and not stray onto the neighbor's property. But footings here should
not be lowered so much as to rest directly upon the suitable base soil as it is only marginally
suitable. You need a little fill (2' is recommended) to spread footing loads out with depth.
Footings maybe generally designed allowing the usual 2000 psf foundation bearing capacity,
which will likely result in normal strip or pad footings.
Special attention is again drawn to the advisory that excavations be examined by the Soils
Engineer to verify soil boring results and to document adequacy of site preparation. Again
this is very important as how much soft/very soft clay must be removed will require a high
degree of field judgment. Fill, as used, should be tested for compaction adequacy. Soil
correction should not be abated below slabs in any manner (ie, do not let the excavator try
to "trench around" slab areas).
Thank you for the opportunity to have been of service. If you have any questions on this, or
if I can be of assistance in any additional capacity, do not hesitate to contact me at your
convenience.

This is in response to your contact of recent regarding groundwater on this project. As you
know, I investigated the lot last month and issued a report dated 25 October 2014.1 found
a total of 7 & 8'/2 of unsuitable soil at the locations of Boring 1 & Probe 1A, respectively,
in the form of topsoil fill, general and varying fill, buried original humus and overly soft clay
or marl. First suitable base soil is a loose to farm sand or a soft to medium lean clay. I
recommended removing these materials andplaeing controlled fill, noting that you will have
to seriously control groundwater in the process. Regarding groundwater, I found it very high
on this site - at a stabilized level of 1.8'. As I understand it, The City of Chanhassen has asked
if this water level will change as a result of site correction.
I used as a stabilized water level the 1.8' found a day after the hand auger phase was
completed. I had encountered water while drilling and did achieve the base granular soil that
first day. When I did the power auger phase, water was creeping up to nearly the same level
a few hours later, so I felt that the 1.8' is valid. I believe that, when you correct this lot,
controlling groundwater, and cornpacting fill, most likely granular, the groundwaterwill soon
rebound to its original level - 1.8' as found in my boring. If you construct ordinary and good
site drainage on your finished project, groundwater will not be affected by any artificial
recharge the result of your activities.
If you have any additional questions on this, or if I can be of assistance in any additional
capacity, do not hesitate to contact me at your convenience.

In accordance with your authorization, I have completed the above referenced investigation
to determine site suitability for the proposed construction. A summary of my findings
together with boring logs and my conclusions and recommendations are presented in the
enclosed report.
I found, as you already have been briefed, more than usual problems with the site. There is
a total of 53/4 & 6'/4 at the locations of Boring 1 & Probe 1 A, respectively, of unsuitable soil
in the form of topsoil fill, general and varying fill, and buried original humus. Below at first
is a low sand content lean clay, generally dark in color, saturated, very soft to soft (w/ depth).
It is "normally consolidated" (consolidated enough to only support its own weight, not
additional weight of fill soils or structures above). The overburdening fill has not been
inplace long enough to force further consolidation. The moisture content test in this material
indicated nearly 42%, high for a lean clay. This material extends only from 51/4 to 7' in
Boring 1, but from 04 to 83/2'in Probe IA. The first 9" of this material in Probe IA is very
soft and is a borderline marl material. All of the aforementioned materials are unsuitable for
structure support should be removed. I do acknowledge that excavators are often reluctant
to excavate further once the buried organic soil is cleared, so understandings should be
inplace at the time of gathering bids.
Base soil below at first is a lean clay, a little sandy, dark gray, saturated, rather soft to
medium. It has inclusions of a poorly graded (biased finer grained) sand with a few fines,
also dark gray, saturated, loose to firm. Deepest soil, commencing at I Fin Boring 1, is a lean
clay, rather sandy, dark gray, low gravel content, medium. Theses materials are glacial till.
The sand inclusions in the upper portion are glacial outwash. All of these base mineral soils
are suitable for residential construction, with conditions. Refusal to auger advancement was
not encountered by boring termination depth of 23', indicating lack of bedrock to this level.
Very importantly, groundwater was found in the main Boring at 1.8' (elev 96'/4±). It is
aquifer groundwater, but marginally so. It appears to be contained primarily in the sand
inclusions at 7'+. But it also is coming from the upper soft and very soft clay, possibly from

the lower organic soil. Proper construction on the site (removing the softer lean clay,
promoting good site drainage) will mitigate some of this. Thus, water found presently can
be regarded as a maximum level. Slab grade of the proposed residence should be set in
accordance with City requirements utilizing this level.
I recommend complete removal of all unsuitable soil which is likely to be the fill and buried
organic soil as encountered plus the overly soft clay found in both the boring and probe.
While this amounts only to another V/4 in the vicinity of Boring 1, it is another 2'+ in the
vicinity of Probe 1A. As indicated, excavators may be reluctant to excavate below organic
soil level, but it is necessary (see longer discussion in the report). It is so important that full
time inspection of the excavation by a soils engineer may be necessary. Of course, other
zones of unsuitable soil not represented by the boring and probe could still be encountered
due to the nature of small volume random sampling. Any other depths or zones of unsuitable
soil should be removed as well. You could lower footings somewhat so that you have to
provide less oversizing and not stray onto the neighbor's property. But footings here should
not be lowered so much as to rest directly upon the suitable base soil as it is only marginally
suitable. You need a little fill (2' is recommended) to spread footing loads out with depth.
Footings maybe generally designed allowing the usual 2000 psf foundation bearing capacity,
which will likely result in normal strip or pad footings.
Special attention is again drawn to the advisory that excavations be examined by the Soils
Engineer to verify soil boring results and to document adequacy of site preparation. Again
this is very important as how much soft/very soft clay must be removed will require a high
degree of field judgment. Fill, as used, should be tested for compaction adequacy. Soil
correction should not be abated below slabs in any manner (ie, do not let the excavator try
to "trench around" slab areas).
Thank you for the opportunity to have been of service. If you have any questions on this, or
if I can be of assistance in any additional capacity, do not hesitate to contact me at your
convenience.

This is in response to your contact of recent regarding groundwater on this project. As you
know, I investigated the lot last month and issued a report dated 25 October 2014.1 found
a total of 7 & 8'/2 of unsuitable soil at the locations of Boring 1 & Probe IA, respectively,
in the form of topsoil fill, general and varying fill, buried original humus and overly soft clay
or marl. First suitable base soil is a loose to fim sand or a soft to medium lean clay. I
recommended removing these materials and placing controlled fill, noting that you will have
to seriously control groundwater in the process. Regarding groundwater, I found it very high
on this site - at a stabilized level of 1.8'. As I understand it, The City of Chanhassen has asked
if this water level will change as a result of site correction.
I used as a stabilized water level the 1.8' found a day after the hand auger phase was
completed. I bad encountered water while drilling and did achieve the base granular soil that
first day. When I did the power auger phase, water was creeping up to nearly the same level
a few hours later, so I felt that the 1.8' is valid. I believe that, when you correct this lot,
controlling groundwater, and compacting fill, most likely granular, the groundwaterwill soon
rebound to its original level - 1.8' as found in my boring. If you construct ordinary and good
site drainage on your finished project, groundwater will not be affected by any artificial
recharge the result of your activities.
If you have any additional questions on this, or if I earl be of assistance in any additional
capacity, do not hesitate to contact me at your convenience.

FINDINGS OF FACT
AND DECISION
IN RE:
Application of John J. and Kimberly E. Corey for Subdivision approval.
On November 24, 2014 the Chanhassen City Council met at it's regularly scheduled meeting to _
consider the application of John J. and Kimberly E. Corey for a metes and bounds subdivision
approval to create two lots. The City Council conducted a public hearing on the proposed
subdivision preceded by published and mailed notice. The City Council heard testimony from all
interested persons wishing to speak and now makes the following:
FINDINGS OF FACT
1. The property is currently zoned Single -Family Residential District, RSF.
2. The property is guided in the Land Use Plan for Residential Low Density uses.
3. The legal description of the property is: Lot 3, Block 2, Moline's Addition.
4. The Subdivision Ordinance directs the Planning Commission to consider seven possible
adverse affects of the proposed subdivision. The seven (7) affects and our findings regarding
them are:
a. The proposed subdivision is consistent with the zoning ordinance;
b. The proposed subdivision is consistent with all applicable city, county and regional plans
including but not limited to the city's comprehensive plan;
c. The physical characteristics of the site, including but not limited to topography, soils,
vegetation, susceptibility to erosion and siltation, susceptibility to flooding, and storm water
drainage are suitable for the proposed development;
d. The proposed subdivision makes adequate provision for water supply, storm drainage,
sewage disposal, streets, erosion control and all other improvements required by this
subdivision ordinance;
e. The proposed subdivision will not cause environmental damage;
f. The proposed subdivision will not conflict with easements of record; and
g. The proposed subdivision is not premature. A subdivision is premature if any of the
following exists:
SCANNED
1) Lack of adequate storm water drainage.
2) Lack of adequate roads.
3) Lack of adequate sanitary sewer systems.
4) Lack of adequate off-site public improvements or support systems.
5. The planning report #2014-30 dated November 24, 2014, prepared by Sharmeen Al-Jaff, et
al, is incorporated herein.
DECISION
The City Council approves the metes and bounds subdivision creating two lots.
ADOPTED by the Chanhassen City Council this 240' day of November, 2014.

Chanhassen City Council — November 24, 2014
major month of July that was our big swing for, or I'm sorry June. That was the big swing for
this year but we seem to be falling now in line with more general call responses that we see for
the season. Seasonal stuff. Kate. And then where we're sitting right now with projected we
should be at around 624 calls for the year if we stay on pace for where we're at right now which
again is an upswing from last year's 573. Then the last one. This probably isn't as easy for the
general to see out here but on your screen we're still running about 42 percent of medicals for
this year, which is pretty consistent with the years that we've had for the past 5. For the training
this last month, we worked a lot with our medical again. One of the things that we started
working with was health and fitness. The highest rate of fire fighter death is due to cardiac and
I'm pretty proud of our group over there. We've got a very fit group. We take it very seriously
and we're actually starting tomorrow, or Wednesday we're all being assessed. There's 22 of the
48 volunteers that are stepping up to do a fitness competition with the Chaska Fire Department
so health strategies is coming in. They're going to do a pretty extensive assessment. We run
through an 8 week fitness program and our goal is to beat the Chaska Fire Department with
improving our BMI. Improving our respiratory function and the health strategies is actually
getting pretty prominent in the fire service of understanding the fire fighter and those are the
types of things that we need to do as far as what physically makes up this group and what are our
risks and that's one of the categories I don't want Chanhassen in is a line of duty death related to
some kind of cardiac incident so I'm pretty proud of our group with over half of them voluntarily
being part of this program and they'd better win because I'm sure Chief Weibe's going to be all
over me if he doesn't. The other thing that I'd like to talk about with the public that are watching
is ice safety. We have been out several times now with, luckily this go around has just been with
animal rescues on the ice. The ice is not safe. We need at least a good 2 to 4 solid inches of ice
for anyone to walk on it so I know folks are interested in getting out there and doing some
fishing. If you put yourself at risk, if my crew's got to show up, you put a lot of people at risk to
get you out of there. The water's not safe. We've got this warm temperatures and then it gets
cold again and it's just, you know a couple weeks of cold weather just isn't going to do it so stay
off the ice. Keep your animals off the ice so you don't feel compelled to go in when they break
through and we can all have a successful winter without being in the paper for the wrong reasons
so that deals with our vehicles. Anybody out on the ice and anybody that walks, we've got a lot
of wonderful lakes in our area so if you can keep your animals on, keep them off the ice for right
now so we don't have to do any rescues that would be much appreciated. That's all I have
Mayor and council.
Mayor Furlong: Good. Thank you Chief. Any questions for Chief Johnson? No, very good.
Thank you. Appreciate the update.
Chief Don Johnson: Thank you.

a public hearing as well before any action is considered so why don't we start with a staff report
please. Ms. Aanenson.
Kate Aanenson: Thank you Mayor, members of the City Council. As you indicated this is a
metes and bounds subdivision and is requiring a public hearing before the City Council. The
City Council can approve a metes and bounds subdivision of one lot into two if it's inside the
sewered area, which this is and both lots meet the minimum requirements and has street frontage
and follows the subdivision requirements, which this does. So again the public hearing is being
held in front of the City Council rather than the Planning Commission. Again the subject site is
on West 65th Street. Access off of Galpin Boulevard. This is the existing condition. There's one
home on the lot right now. This kind of gives you a purview of the neighborhood right here on
West 65t' Street. A little bit larger lots. Over the minimum 15,000. So the existing conditions
on the site, again there's one home on the site. There is a septic mound site on the property and
then there is also a low area found on the property. The existing home would stay as it is and
both homes would get access off of West 65' Street. The subdivision itself, the Moline
Subdivision was filed with Carver County in December of 1969. The existing home was built in
1981. Did want to point out too that the septic system would be removed then as part of the
subdivision construction and also that that low area, as we've determined there will be I'm sure
some discussion from the neighbors on that but that it's not a pond. It's just a lower area on the
site. So the subdivision itself as required in the subdivision regulations, both lots have to meet
the requirements of the city ordinance which both do as far as minimum lot area. 15,000 square
feet and the existing home would meet the impervious surface requirements. Can't exceed 25
percent and this is at 24 percent so Parcel 1, which would be the new lot is 15,165 square feet
and Parcel 2 would be the 15,159 square feet. Again both parcels meeting the frontage
requirement and the lot area requirement. I did want to point out, there's been some discussion
on this regarding the grading itself and utilities on the site and for this you can see on this area up
in here, the street itself. The portion of the street behind the cul-de-sac has been vacated,
although it's still shown on the records. Either property owners on either side would have to
request that so the easement, this area here, there's a condition that's addressed in the staff report
that talks about the developer would propose a 10 foot front yard and a 5 foot side yard drainage
and utility easement and that we also grant an easement over this area for public purposes. And
that would be recorded with the subdivision itself So the proposed street subdivision adjacent to
West 65' Street is a 20 foot wide public street within a 60 foot right-of-way without curb or
gutter and this street was constructed in 1979. Was overlaid in 2013. The current standard for
new streets in Chanhassen is 31 feet wide with curb and gutter and staff is not recommending
that the developer install curb and gutter along this property frontage since the remainder of the
street was not reconstructed that way so it'd follow the existing conditions that are already in the
neighborhood. So the proposed grading for the site would be that the surface water drainage
from the back to the front. Getting therefore, getting the water itself to the front of the street and
the existing Parcel 2 with the existing home would not be altered. This would just be for the new
home which is Parcel 1 would be the new home so again the grading, bring it to the stormwater
in the front. So the other issue then with the grading is that there's evidence of high ground
water in this area. Originally when this application came in we did recommend that the
applicant, based on the subdivision requirements that they needed to identify that it is a buildable
lot because we have a requirement of building the lowest level 3 feet above the ordinary high
water mark so they went back and had this engineered and so what they found is that the
• 9
Chanhassen City Council — November 24, 2014
infiltration into the sanitary sewer manhole in the area, the infiltration was abated with the street
project so that was changed. The site investigation performed was also, indicated mottled soils
about 18 inches below the surface and mottled soils are indicative of periodic soil saturation.
And also that the investigation indicated water present during the borings rising to 2 feet below
the surface. So as part of the Parcel 1 requirements, again by subdivision that they be 3 feet
above is that they would have to grade up some of the poor soils and then fill those and again to
get that build up that lot in order to get the 3 feet above the ordinary high water mark. So
they've submitted plans to do that. Now this would take place when the owner would buy the
home. The applicant for this subdivision is not doing that now so we want to make sure that
that's in the chain of title and requirements so anyone buying the lot would know what they
would need to do in order to make this lot buildable. But because this is a subdivision there were
fees that would need to be paid at the time of subdivision so the fees for sewer connections and
some of the park and trail fees would have to be paid at this time but anybody working on that lot
would want to build would then take the extra step. Again it would be a slab on grade as is
Parcel 2. The existing home is also slab on grade. Would have to be built that way and do the
soil remediation to make sure it meets what we've identified as the conditions of approval. So
with that we are recommending approval. Creating the two lots into one. Adopting of the
Findings of Fact and there is a resolution so I'd be happy to answer any questions that you may
have.
Mayor Furlong: Thank you Ms. Aanenson. Appreciate the report. Questions for staff. Can you
explain just a little bit about some of the soil corrections? The water level I think reading
through the report was a little less than 2 feet below current grade so would there be removal of
existing soils, replacement and then additional soils so that the slab is then 3 feet above the
water? Is that I mean an engineering requirements?
Kate Aanenson: Yeah, I'm going to let Paul answer that.
Mayor Furlong: Yeah, that's fine. Thank you.
Paul Oehme: Thank you Mayor, City Council members. So the soils report recommends
removal and remediation of approximately 7 feet of soil in some of these areas. Just because of
the perch ground water conditions that we're fording and just for structural support of the
foundation as well so that's one of the main challenges out here is getting the soils corrected
prior to construction.
Mayor Furlong: In order for it to be a buildable?
Paul Oehme: In order for it to be a buildable lot, yeah. So this is again this is just a preliminary
plan right now but we're anticipating that the lot would have to have drain file surrounding the
property too get our 3 foot separation as well and build that, build the lot up just a little bit from
his existing elevation as well.
Mayor Furlong: And can you just clarify, in the recommended conditions, is this under the
engineering section I believe? Possibly condition 9 under Engineering.
• 0
Chanhassen City Council — November 24, 2014
Paul Oehme: Okay.
Mayor Furlong: Where it talks about the Interstate Geotechnical Engineering's observations.
Paul Oehme: If I can find it. Okay.
Mayor Furlong: And I guess I just want to clarify, this condition talks about that minimum
separation of 3 feet. It doesn't necessarily talk about soil corrections. Is that currently not part
of our ordinance or would that be part of the requirement before the permit would be issued?
How does that become part of the conditions here?
Paul Oehme: That would be part of the building permit typically and investigation or inspection
by city staff to make sure that the soils that are unsuitable for foundations would be removed.
Mayor Furlong: And is that typically part of a building permit? Does that happen everywhere in
the city?
Kate Aanenson: I would say it's not uncommon that they do, we require a soils report.
Mayor Furlong: Okay.
Kate Aanenson: Especially if there's been corrected soils so there'll be a note on that lot that a
soils report is required.
Mayor Furlong: Okay, so that will go into the file and be part of the conditions here. Is the soils
corrections somewhere in the conditions already Ms. Aanenson or? It talks about observations
but then it seems to speak to a requirement that it be 3 feet.
Kate Aanenson: Yeah. The ordinance does require 3 feet.
Mayor Furlong: Right.
Kate Aanenson: So I think what we're, the 7 foot was based on the Geotechnical report so.
Mayor Furlong: So I guess the question is, is 9 complete enough to also deal with the soil
corrections to engineering's satisfaction.
Kate Aanenson: I think because it references the Geotechnical report.
Paul Oehme: Right and it has to meet our ordinance so once they submit final plans, you know
we'll make sure that it meets our ordinance and the soils are addressed at that time.
Mayor Furlong: And does our ordinance address correct soils? Is that part of, is it already in our
ordinance? Therefore it doesn't need to be in here.
7
Chanhassen City Council — November 24, 2014
Paul Oehme: Right. There has to be structural review of what the soils that are out there are
necessarily strong enough to support the foundation of a proposed building.
Mayor Furlong: Of what they're proposing.
PaulOehme: Exactly.
Mayor Furlong: Okay. So our ordinances in the building permit already look at that so we don't
need an additional condition.
Kate Aanenson: Right. The ordinance says you have to be 3 feet above the ordinary high water
mark.
Mayor Furlong: Understand.
Kate Aanenson: In order to do that they have to correct the soils. Because they've corrected the
soils, therefore they need to do a soils report.
Mayor Furlong: Okay. And that's all going to be in the file and track with this parcel?
Kate Aanenson: Yes.
Mayor Furlong: Okay. Alright. Other questions anybody may have? Councilman
Laufenburger.
Councilman Laufenburger: Thank you Mr. Mayor. Paul, can you speak to, or Kate. You
identified a low area near the, I'm going to call it the southwest, right? So do I understand
correctly that you're proposing grading that would take all the water flow from the back of the
lot, that would be the southern portion of the lot to the north side of the lot, is that correct?
Kate Aanenson: That's my understanding from the grading plan.
Councilman Laufenburger: Okay so, okay. And where will that, will that water, where does the
water go now? Does it just accumulate in the back of the lot and does it go east towards Galpin?
Does it go west towards the back of the cul-de-sac?
Paul Oehme: I think a lot of it flows to the south right now but with the drain tile that are being
proposed, there is additional catch basins along the edge of the property line to catch some of
that water so it more or less flows to the north.
Councihnan Laufenburger: So then it would go into.
Paul Oehme: Into the.
Councilman Laufenburger: Into the storm sewer which is along.

Chanhassen City Council — November 24, 2014
Paul Oehme: Right, there's a drain tile.
Councilman Laufenburger: Along 65`h.
Paul Oehme: Along 651, right.
Councilman Laufenburger: Okay. Alright. So what about surface water? Surface water doesn't
go to 65`h right now does it?
Paul Oehme: Not, well some of it does but I think a majority of it flows to the south, yeah.
Councilman Laufenburger: So when you raise, when you change that grading level more surface
water will go to the street on 65`h, is that correct?
Paul Oehme: That's correct.
Councilman Laufenburger: Okay. And is that acceptable?
Paul Oehme: That's typically the way house pads are designed.
Councilman Laufenburger: Okay.
Todd Gerhardt: There's a catch basin next to the driveway.
Kate Aanenson: Right.
Paul Oehme: Right.
Todd Gerhardt: The pink line.
Councilman Laufenburger: Got it, okay. Thank you Mr. Mayor.
Mayor Furlong: Okay. Any other questions for staff at this time? Okay, thank you. I'd like to
hear from the applicant.
Councilman Laufenburger: Oh wait, I do have one more.
Mayor Furlong: Oh, okay. Councilman Laufenburger.
Councilman Laufenburger: Yeah Kate there was something about trees. Trees are planned to be
saved, is that correct?
Kate Aanenson: That's correct.

Chanhassen City Council — November 24, 2014
Councilman Laufenburger: And is that also in a, like a development contract or a subdivision
contract that would require that certain trees stay? How do we know that they're going to
comply with that?
Kate Aanenson: Yeah. Typically what we do before a permit is issued is that they put tree
protection and that is one of the conditions in here. Be required around preserved trees and then
typically we inspect those before grading begins.
Councilman Laufenburger: Yep, okay.
Kate Aanenson: And also if this was a new lot, vacant lot then we require at least one tree in the
front yard and so, and that's what we're requesting on this one too because as we talked about
they're bringing in some fill and grading that we try to save one tree in the front yard too.
Councilman Laufenburger: Okay.
Kate Aanenson: And those are conditions.
Councilman Laufenburger: Okay. Thank you Mr. Mayor.
Mayor Furlong: Certainly. I'd like to hear from the applicant now. If they have anything they'd
like to share with the council. Good evening.
James Brudos: Good evening Mayor, City Council. My name is James Brudos and I reside in
Minnetonka. Just to go over as far as the drainage issues on that lot. Currently they, someone
said that it drains to the south. Most of it seems to stay within that lot because of the soil
conditions which is mostly clay based which is somewhat impervious so right now as it sits it's
acting as a pool. So that's why I believe the water table's a little bit artificially high and with the
remedies that we have in place with the proposed drainage plan, that would pretty much direct all
the water flow where it should go. Away from the homes, inbetween the homes and towards the
street where there is already a storm drain in place as well as a neighbor installed drain tile so.
Mayor Furlong: Keep going.
James Brudos: So hopefully that answers it for the.
Mayor Furlong: Okay.
James Brudos: Any other questions?
Mayor Furlong: Any questions at this point? No. Okay, thank you.
James Brudos: Sure.
Mayor Furlong: At this time we'll open up a public hearing and invite all interested parties to
come forward and provide comment on this matter. If you'd like to speak, I invite you to come

forward to the podium. Please state your name and address for the record. Good evening sir.
Please come forward.
Terry Atherton: Hello.
Mayor Furlong: Good evening.
Terry Atherton: My name's Terry Atherton. I live across the street from this development
project.
Mayor Furlong: What's your address Mr. Atherton?
Terry Atherton: Sorry?
Mayor Furlong: Your address. Your street address.
Terry Atherton: Oh, 2082 West 65`s Street.
Mayor Furlong: Thank you.
Terry Atherton: I think most all of us that live up there know that there's a high water table
because our sump pumps run every spring and sometimes they run for 2 or 3 months. I have a
below ground electrical transformer in my front yard and I can watch the level of the water go up
and down as Lake Minnetonka goes up and down. And to just give you a few facts from my
background. I bought the house in 1977 and in '79 or '80 the City condemned 12 out of the 17
septic systems on Murray Hill and during that from like June, well actually May until October
our septic systems were essentially dead. My own family we had, flushed our toilets once a day
and we took showers at my mother-in-law's over in Minnetonka but I'm just trying to show you
how much water there is up there and I don't believe the water is coming from rain or down
spouts or whatever. I believe it's coming from the aquifers underneath the ground from
Minnetonka because like this last, well I'll back up. We, in '78 or '79 we petitioned the City to
put in sewer systems and so by the next year we all had sewer systems so we were pretty happy
about that. But this last spring in June when we had all the rain I watched the water come up on
that transformer and of course it just kind of laid in my front yard until almost August before it
started to drop down but was well above the transformer and it was flush with the ground. Now
kind of funny story. When I bought the house I went down to put, drill a hole in the ground for
the mailbox. I dug down about 2 feet and I thought, I could hear a gurgling. Just like that the
hole filled up with water and you could actually stand on the end of that cul-de-sac and, which is
like a trampoline. Go up and down. But in the 90's the City brought in, I don't know how many
trucks it was for fill over the asphalt that, and it's pretty solid now. Getting back to this last
June, I've got a sump pump in the back of my house but the water was coming in on all four
sides of my house. From the garage. From the back and two places in the front. And so I ended
up redoing my tile system in the front and hopefully that that will work that out but it was
actually kind of a nightmare. I spent 3 nights. 3 days with a shop vac pumping water out of the
basement and the first night I got up every hour to do this because the water level was coming
up. I had to move all my furniture and everything else out into the garage. And then the next
11
Chanhassen City Council — November 24, 2014
day I was down to 2 hours. I could sleep. The next night it was 3 hours I could sleep but from
there on the water levels started to go down a little bit but that's all with Minnetonka when they
had a no wake zone. So I don't know, this is all facts. Speculation as to what might happen if
they build a new house on there but I'm speculating that it's going to affect our water system.
Be worst than what it is. So I urge you not to accept this proposal.
Mayor Furlong: Alright, thank you Mr. Atherton. Mr. Oehme, any thoughts or comments or
based upon the engineering report that was done with regard to what effect, based upon the
proposed soil corrections and separation of the water with a slab on grade home on this proposed
lot, what that might, how that might affect the neighboring properties?
Paul Oehme: Sure. The geotechnical report didn't speak to how it would affect or potentially
affect surrounding neighbors but what the geotechnical report did say is, you know if you correct
the soils. Put sandier material in the lot for the house pad and surrounding the building itself.
Include in the drain tile that was proposed as well by the developer, that system would artificially
lower the ground water in this particular lot to get our 3 foot separation so. I don't think it would
affect surrounding neighbors.
Mayor Furlong: And I guess that's the question. Is it artificially lowering it by taking it off the
property into the storm sewer system or pushing it onto the neighbor's property?
Paul Oehme: No, we're talking ground water here so it'd be lowering the ground water on this
particular site and discharging that ground water into the tile that's on 65'" Street.
Mayor Furlong: So taking the ground water, lowering the level on this lot and actually removing
it from the area.
Paul Oehme: Correct.
Mayor Furlong: Okay. Alright. Thank you.
Terry Atherton: Thank you.
Mayor Furlong: Please.
Chris Jerdee: My name is Chris Jerdee. I live on 2081 West 65" Street, which is the property
just to the west there.
Mayor Furlong: Thank you.
Chris Jerdee: I'm not, I can sit and talk about the, I've only been here for 4 years. The rest of
these guys have lived here, they're original owners of these homes but you said, somebody said
that it's not actually a duck pond behind the house. Well it might not technically be but between
the months of April and June, this year all the way into August, it was a pond. The water was up
to my knees. My dog, I have an 80 pound lab who would spend, she would go swim in this
water. There is, this is not just your typical water problem. The water stands there. There's
12
0 •
Chanhassen City Council — November 24, 2014
standing water on the border just to the cast of my property pretty much all spring into, well into
the summer and there has been for the 4 years I've lived here. Obviously this year was much
worst. I actually have installed some drain tile. Had a contractor do it rather. From the south
side of my lot out to the catch basin in the road there's two. I was actually going to pay to put
one in the property in question here when the previous owner was there but the new owner didn't
want me to do that. I was going to just try to help get some, get rid of some of the water. This is
just surface water. Rain water. I didn't end up doing that because he didn't want me to do that
so, so that's part of the issue I think. I think the bigger issue for me is, I have moved into this
space 4 years ago because every lot, I think somebody mentioned it right at the beginning. Every
lot on this street is three-quarters of an acre roughly. Some a little bigger. Some a little smaller.
I think this lot in question is one of the smaller ones and when you take a current lot, split it in
half and now you have two homes on this street that have lots half the size of pretty much every
other house on the road. I guess I'm kind of wondering what that's going to do to my property
value. The neighboring property values and then what happens is, I don't want to do this
because I bought the lot because I like the size of it. What if all of the houses on the end of the
property, or the cul-de-sac there decide that we want to split our lots too? Now we've got 8
homes on the end of a cul-de-sac that as far as I heard, I'm not an expert here, is already an
undersized road. What happens? Are there safety issues? Again I don't want to do that. This is
all hypothetical but if we approve this one then who's to say that years from now we don't have
8 homes stacked on the end of this cul-de-sac so. That's all I have. Thanks.
Mayor Furlong: Okay, thank you
John Favorite: Mayor, council, John Favorite. I live at 2080 65th Street West. Directly across
the street from the property we're talking about here and I'd like to know from I guess it's an
engineering question. The owner behind this property to the south, there is actually a, it's a gully
and it's part of the, part of the wetland area that was showed earlier. You can't just jack the back
of this lot up because it meets another lot on the south side. There's actually like a creek. Well
it was kind of creek when I first moved in there so I don't, I'm trying to understand how you can
jack the back of the lot up and get the water to drain to the front when they don't own the, you
can't match into the other person's property. I'm trying to understand what, what the
engineering is behind that.
Mayor Furlong: Mr. Oehme, do you want to respond to that question?
Paul Oehme: Sure.
Mayor Furlong: How do you do it?
Paul Oehme: So the whole lot is going to be re -graded so I believe that the low point that's on
the property where it holds a lot of water is going to be re -graded out and try to get the water
redirected to the north onto 65th street. So and maybe the developer can address that a little bit
more too.
James Brudos: Now?
13
Chanhassen City Council — November 24, 2014
Mayor Furlong: Sure, if you don't mind.
James Brudos: Yeah.
Mayor Furlong: Mr. Favorite is that okay? Stay here if you have more comments to make.
John Favorite: Yeah, I will. I will.
Mayor Furlong: Let's get an answer to this question first.
James Brudos: Most of the grading is going to be filling in that little spot which is within the
confines of that lot that we're trying to subdivide. In addition to that running from the, let's see.
The south side to the north.
Mayor Furlong: Nann, could we get the overhead view please? Excuse me for interrupting.
James Brudos: Okay. It's going to be running to the street by virtue of the slope itself and in
addition to that we're going to have drain tile around the whole perimeter of the lot to direct the
water to the storm drain so I don't know how it could have standing water from that.
Mayor Furlong: So you're going to be adding, adding fill. Adding soils to the site.
James Brudos: Correct.
Mayor Furlong: Digging out, replacing plus adding on top of that.
James Brudos: Correct.
Mayor Furlong: Okay. And then with the additional soils, direct the drainage out towards the
street. Towards West 65th.
James Brudos: Correct. As well as putting a drain tile around the perimeter of the lot itself.
Mayor Furlong: Okay.
James Brudos: Which is above and beyond in my opinion. But just to suffice and remediate any
possible standing water.
Mayor Furlong: Okay.
John Favorite: Okay. I have a question then. Does anybody know what the elevations are
behind there where the lot ends and where the resident behind their lot starts? What those
elevations are? Could you.
Paul Oehme: And 1064 and then the back yard it looks like it's going to be 1061 or so. Right in
this area. 1061.

Chanhassen City Council — November 24, 2014
John Favorite: So her water's going to hit that.
Paul Oehme: Yep.
John Favorite: Her water's going to hit that and carry?
Paul Oehme: Carry to the north, right.
John Favorite: To the street. Okay. I can't imagine that happening but they were fortunate
because that's the driest the lot had ever been. The gentleman was able to get out there with his
boring truck and, to take his samples and I've been stuck on every part of that lot with every
piece of equipment I've ever owned because the prior owner was a good friend of mine. I was
always trying to help him out but so there's a ton of hydrostatic pressure there that is in my
opinion more than, more than just a slope issue. I wish we could look into it further. I don't
know how, you know what else we can do there. But then I'm with Chris. The neighbor, this
isn't the first time someone's tried to subdivide in there. I have been down there years ago and I
was told that, and I understood. I was told that whoever divides that first would have to pay for
concrete curb and making the cul-de-sac a legal sized cul-de-sac. They would shoulder those
costs. So then I decided not to do it and I wanted, and after being there a little bit I thought you
know I'm not going to fight that. I like a nice big lot. I like a nice big yard but that was the main
driver there and if that happened, because like Chris says that's a concern of mine too. If you
start getting 8 houses. We go from 4 houses on the bubble there to 8. I mean we can't, you can't
tum a garbage truck around there anyway right now. So the point that the City Engineering prior
to Paul being there was that it was a safety issue so someone would have to make it, take that on
and make that a legal sized cul-de-sac. Apparently that doesn't apply anymore but I have notes
from when I went down there and then Bernie, the prior owner. I went down there with him and
he was told the same thing.
Mayor Furlong: When was that?
John Favorite: This was about 10 years ago. 10-12 years ago but what's changed since then? I
mean the street's the same size so the argument was that you know, hey you can't do it unless
you improve, make all these improvements because you can't get around in there so for me if
everybody's comfortable with the fire safety thing there, fine. You know like I said you can't,
more people living there, I don't know 4 cars per home. How many in the street? I don't know.
I guess I'd like that to be looked at further if we could. You know are we looking down the
road? In other words I wish the fire chief was here to look ahead and say okay, it's okay now but
like what if everybody else does that and all of sudden you've got 8. Are things going to
change? You're going to have to change something. We can't do it all in that undersized cul-de-
sac.
Mayor Furlong: Ms. Aanenson, can you respond to those comments or questions?
Kate Aanenson: Well some of those are directed to engineering but whether or not a lot can
further subdivide would depend on whether or not they would meet the requirements of
IR
0 0
Chanhassen City Council — November 24, 2014
providing an additional 15,000 square foot lot so it really depends on where you house sits on the
lot. In this circumstance, the way it fits is that there is additional 15,000. Somebody else may be
able to but some of the other lots, they have accessory structures or large garages.
Mayor Furlong: Which would have to be removed.
Kate Aanenson: Right, yeah. So I'm not sure that the configuration of their lots would allow
for.
Mayor Furlong: Does that make sense Mr. Favorite?
John Favorite: Yeah it does. I know mine would with some minor alterations. That's why I
went down there. I've been doing this kind of thing for, we built. I work for a company. We
built most the roads in Chanhassen in the 70's and 80's so I was familiar with what went on there
and that's why I understood what engineering was saying about you know you start getting this
it's undersized. You get a little bigger you're going to have to do this. Like I said I didn't want
to shoulder the cost but in theory everyone could, everybody could come up with, with a
minimum square footage like that, that's on the end of that bubble. In theory. They could. So
then what? I mean in fact if I would have made those improvements to that cul-de-sac this lot
wouldn't have met the minimum requirements so back then had I taken that on, this lot wouldn't
have even met those requirements. So I guess but the big thing for me is looking down the road.
Is what's good for the goose good for the gander? We're getting close to the holiday but is
everything else, is everybody else there could to have the same, same opportunity?
Mayor Furlong: Well and I think Ms. Aanenson, I guess the subdivision ordinance speaks to
what, what are the requirements for a subdivision correct?
Kate Aanenson: That's correct.
Mayor Furlong: So.
John Favorite: Without improvement. Okay without street improvement.
Kate Aanenson: I'm not going to, I'll let the City Engineer address that.
John Favorite: I mean I guess I'd like to have.
Mayor Furlong: No, and I don't know what conversation you had again so.
John Favorite: No, no, sure. Paul's he's been, everyone was great down there.
Mayor Furlong: Mr. Oehme, your thoughts.
Paul Oehme: It is undersized the cul-de-sac for what our typical standard is right now. I think
it's about a 72 foot wide cul-de-sac so it is a little bit narrower than what we'd like to see out
here. I think from talking to the fire chief, fire marshal, I think the cul-de-sac works for us. We
16
0 •
Chanhassen City Council — November 24, 2014
have other cul-de-sacs like this in the city. They seem to work fine for us so we're not looking to
make improvements in this area. Because there would be right-of-way that would have to be
acquired to make that happen and additional impacts that at this time we didn't think would be,
would be appropriate. We did just recently overlay or redo 65'" Street and so we are comfortable
leaving the cul-de-sac the same width at that time so.
Mayor Furlong: Okay. Alright.
John Favorite: Okay so I guess that satisfies me if I decide to do it, I would assume it would pass
for me. I couldn't find another, could anybody name another situation like this? I drove all over
the city and I couldn't find one. I looked on the map on the City.
Mayor Furlong: When you say a situation like this?
John Favorite: Like this where, where there's an undersized cul-de-sac with homes on it like this
that are trying to split them off. I couldn't find any.
Mayor Furlong: Ms. Aanenson, are you aware of any?
John Favorite: With a cul-de-sac this size.
Kate Aanenson: I'm guessing Koehnen Circle or any of those so.
Paul Oehme: Yeah 1 mean that's.
Kate Aanenson: Everything kind of in that northern area right there.
John Favorite: What?
Kate Aanenson: Koehnen Circle. Some of those up there would be similar situation to the north.
John Favorite: Okay well those were slightly larger I thought but you're saying the dimensions
are identical?
Kate Aanenson: I didn't say that. I said they'd be similar. We have streets that are undersized
in other areas of the city. The street width changed. It used to be 50 feet city wide. Back in the
70's and then it really wasn't changed to 60 feet until maybe.
Paul Oehme: 80's and 90's.
Kate Aanenson: Yeah probably in the 80's so some of the early parts of the city were built with
50 foot wide streets, and we have done extension subdivisions.
Mayor Furlong: And that's 50 right-of-way, correct?
Kate Aanenson: Right excuse me, right-of-way. Not pavement.
17
• M
Chanhassen City Council — November 24, 2014
John Favorite: Right, our street's 25 feet wide.
Kate Aanenson: We can talk about Hummingbird. We've got streets that are significantly
smaller.
Mayor Furlong: Yep.
Kate Aanenson: So what we've done to you when we brought those, we've looked at kind of the
neighborhood standard. You know we've got that in Carver Beach where they're significantly
narrower. We brought those to you. When we do a subdivision on the end of one of those and
say this is the existing pattern. We're not going to take at the end of that street, say at 50 feet
we're going to put a 60 foot at the end of that. We said that doesn't appear, we're going to stick
with that neighborhood standard it's served so far so we do look at those on a case by case basis
but yes. We have 50 right-of-way through the older parts of the city.
Mayor Furlong: But again the width of the.
Kate Aanenson: The pavement width may vary within that right-of-way.
Mayor Furlong: The pavement width can be narrower than our current standard.
Kate Aanenson: Right because now the pavement width is 31 and I believe it used to be
probably closer to 26 probably. Or vary.
Mayor Furlong: Well its 25 here.
John Favorite: Our's is 25 so like I said I mean.
Mayor Furlong: Yeah so at some point that was built.
John Favorite: To find an example like this with that size of bubble at the end of it with those
dimensions with 8 homes on it, nothing exists that I can. Nothing exists.
Mayor Furlong: That's possible. There's, yep.
John Favorite: Just I'm just worried about down the vision. Down the road you know, looking
ahead.
Mayor Furlong: Yep.
John Favorite: Just trying to, you know. You know I don't fault, so you meet minimum
requirements. You do what you do. I get that. I just, I hope everybody's looking down the road
so it's all apples and apples later on too.
Mayor Furlong: Okay.

Peg Trager: Hi. Peg Trager at, I'm at 2080 Crestview. Right behind this property. That is my
little white house there. So if their land is sloped the other way, built up in the back and mine is
coming down the hill to that spot, will the pond be on my side then? Moved to my side because
it was there all summer basically.
Paul Oehme: Right, no. No, that's not the intent.
Peg Trager: My.
Paul Oehme: Right you're higher than Lot 1 out here and it's going to be basically filled in and
then, so the water won't have an area to stand anymore. It's just going to sheet drain to the north
so the puddle won't be.
Peg Trager: Why won't it be on my property though because even now when I dig down there in
the fall, I planted a bunch of evergreens, you put the shovel in and water is right there. Like you
don't even have to water it so it's very, very low on my property too.
Paul Oehme: Okay, so again.
Peg Trager: But I haven't had the pond. The pond is on other side of the fence.
Paul Oehme: Right and the pond is going to go away or that low depression area on Lot 1, the
intent is for that to go away. That's the plan.
Deb Pittman: Good evening. My name's Deb Pittman. I live at 6500 Galpin. We're actually on
the comer of West 65'" and Galpin and my concern is, and you said right out. You have not
figured out what this will do to the other homes. Well water runs downhill. We're kind of like
at the bottom. Right now we have 3 sump pumps which run also in the winter so we're not just
talking top runoff water so what is this going to do I guess to the two properties that are down,
well I guess three properties that are down from that? That's kind of like you say they'll dig
down and change the soil. Well the water that originally was there, where's it going to go?
Paul Oehme: So if you can bring up the plan. Yeah, the plan set so, so the proposal or the plan
is to add drain tile. 6 inch drain file along both sides. That's shown here in pink. Drain file
along both sides of the property line so any water that's, and it's going to be about 3 feet deep.
So any water that's within 3 feet of that pipe, that's where the water is going to go and be
discharged into the drain tile that's on 65a' Street. That's why you know we're actually, the plan
is to, in my opinion is improving the ground water situation out here because it's lowering,
artificially lowering potentially any of the water that's, that would be collected in this area and
removing that, discharging it to the city system. So the drain tile basically wraps around the
property

Mayor Furlong: Does it run all the way along the, all the borders Paul. I can't see with all the
lines here.
Paul Oehme: It does. Okay, yep. So it.
Todd Gerhardt: Show the catch basins.
Paul Oehme: So here's one catch basin. Here's another catch basin. Another catch basin here.
Mayor Furlong: And those are actually on the property.
Paul Oehme: Those are on the property with, right along the drainage utility easement and then
connects into the city system that's right here.
Deb Pittman: But what about on the other side?
Paul Oehme: Then there's another, this is another drain tile. Here's another catch basin here.
Another catch basin right here and they're 2 to 3 feet deep.
Deb Pittman: So that supposedly will catch any underground water?
Paul Oehme: It will catch both underground water and then also surface water if the catch basins
have a grate on top so.
Todd Gerhardt: Just 2 feet below the surface.
Deb Pittman: It's only going to catch 2 feet below the surface?
Paul Oehme: Correct. And that's basically where the ground water table is today.
Mayor Furlong: Right.
Paul Oehme: Two to three feet.
Deb Pittman: Okay. I still think that this is not really being addressed for the issues that area has
with not just runoff water but underground water. And I really hate to see this house go in and
then all of a sudden the neighbors down from this new house, all of a sudden I've got to put in a
fourth sump pump or I get a flooded basement. I mean I don't know I just kind of feel like
things just aren't being addressed. How you can change and put in hills and this water's
miraculously going to disappear.
Paul Oehme: Well the water's not going to disappear. It's going to be directed into the drain tile
and re -graded to allow better surface drainage to the north and then onto the street so it's not
sitting on the property anymore. It's actually draining out into the street and into the storm sewer
system.

Chanhassen City Council — November 24, 2014
James Brudos: And away from your house.
Paul Oehme: And away from your house.
Deb Pittman: Okay. I guess time will tell.
Bill Ashenbach: Mr. Mayor, council. My name is Bill Ashenbach at 2041 West 65"' Street and I
live right on the east side of the existing home now and my question is that we have a lot of
standing water between our two homes because the home that's there now is so close to my
home. My garden's probably like 12-15 feet away and this spring my garden was under water all
the way around the whole garden and I've got a pretty good sized garden and the water sat there
and sat there and sat there. Plus I was thinking if you, if they do bring in and bring the level of
the lot up to standard where it's supposed to be, I'm just wondering how that's going to affect
the back yard of the existing home because that was under water for a long time. From probably
a couple months the whole back yard was under water, okay. And I know if they, I don't know
if they're going to raise that land up or not or just the new existing lot they want to sell because,
because of the fact that the house was built so close to our side of the lot. It pushed a lot of the
water into our yard and all of a sudden we had water problems and we had to put a septic system
in our basement after 15 or I think it was 18 years after we moved in there so we've had nothing
but our pump running constantly and then this spring and summer when I couldn't get out to the
garden because of the water completely around the garden and over into the property next door,
where the house is now, it sits there for a long time and my question right now is, they put in
some kind of a drainage area now. They cut out a, it's kind of like a ravine that's maybe 3 to 3
feet wide trying to drain the water between my house and their house out to street but if you take
a look at the grade, the grade towards the back of our lot to the front of our lot has got to have
about, I'm guessing maybe an 8 inch hill to go up so that water's not going anywhere unless they
put a, some kind of a drainage system around the whole existing house now because the back of
the existing house is really low and I think you're going to, I think Peg's going to have a
continuous water problem along that whole back of their lot because she's, if they build the
existing lot up, it's just going to push all the water, the ground water's going to go onto the back
of her lot so I can't really see how they can really get rid of the situation unless everybody raises
the level up so high that it's going to drain towards the street and out into the sewer so, that's my
concern.
Mayor Furlong: And I appreciate that and I guess the question as you're raising this point sir is,
Paul this drain rile you keep talking about is 6 inch so it's, as I envision a 6 inch tube right,
underneath the ground. And is that laid in such that, I mean with the rise if you're going, water
doesn't go uphill.
Bill Ashenbach: No, that's what my point is.
Mayor Furlong: So do they bury this drain tile so it's actually going downhill so the drain tile is
higher elevation in the back of the lot than it is in the front?

Chanhassen City Council — November 24, 2014
Paul Oehme: That's correct. So it has positive drainage towards the road so it carries the water
to the storm sewer system.
Mayor Furlong: So when it gets down to the road is that where the City's drain tile is?
Paul Oehme: Correct.
Mayor Furlong: Okay. Behind the road.
Paul Oehme: Yeah, behind the curb.
Mayor Furlong: The curb or as much as you, okay.
Bill Ashenbach: But there's still a question as to, because if they raise the level of the yard up
and the existing, I mean the lot that they want to sell is still going to push it over to the existing
house because that lot is so low behind the house that it's the same level as my house and it's
just, when you, unless you're going to raise the whole thing all the way up, all the way across or
put in some kind of a drainage system around the whole existing house now and the new lot they
want, you're not going to get rid of the water. All you do is just moving it around a little bit is
all you're doing because it's basically ground water. I was there when they built that house and
we watched them put in 12, what do you call it? They punched 12 holes in there and watched,
for the water levels and they instantly all came right up to the top and they stayed there for oh my
gosh. Terry Atherton and I watched them and weeks and months the water level stayed right up
towards the top of the lots so the water level, it's coming from, it's not coming from anywhere
else. It's coming from the bottom on up. That's the way I feel so once again my question is, is
how are they going to drain the existing house with the new existing lot? That's the question.
Mayor Furlong: And I guess Mr. Oehme, what are the proposals there if any?
Paul Oehme: Again you know the house and the drainage is to get the water to sheet drain and to
get the water off the property. Again the drain file will handle a lot of the.
Mayor Furlong: But I guess to clarify. That's the new lot.
Paul Oehme: Right.
Mayor Furlong: That's the lot being created.
Bill Ashenbach: Right.
Paul Oehme: Okay.
Mayor Furlong: I hear his question, Mr. Ashenbach's question of the existing house and what
would be Lot 2 here, or Parcel 2. It doesn't look like there are any improvements there.
Paul Oehme: Right.

Chanhassen City Council — November 24, 2014
Mayor Furlong: Why?
Paul Oehme: Because the drain, the lot is being raised up a little bit and if you look right on the
property line, there's a little bit of gradage here but there's 2 percent positive drainage to the
north along the property line there. Plus there is a depression right at this catch basin here to
capture a lot of that water before it heads to the east onto the adjacent property so there.
Mayor Furlong: So the new lot, new house, that drainage is not going to go to the existing
parcel?
Paul Oehme: Right.
Mayor Furlong: Or Parcel 2.
Paul Oehme: That's.
Mayor Furlong: That's going to go up to the street.
Paul Oehme: Right. We're trying to capture the water as it leaves the property. Try to sheet
drain it to the north to this catch basin here. There's a little depression right here to allow all that
water to get into that drain tile and then end up into the city system.
Bill Ashenbach: Right, well.
Mayor Furlong: So the existing home though and parcel, there are no proposed changes there
because that's already existing.
Paul Oehme: That's already existing.
Bill Ashenbach: But what about all the water that lays in the whole back yard? I mean it's as
big as, almost as big as this whole room.
Mayor Furlong: Of the, of Parcel 2 or behind the existing house?
Bill Ashenbach: Behind the existing house. Right, behind the existing house and inbetween
their house now and my house is a low area. If you look in my back yard, look at the front, it
just kind of goes I don't know what percent grade it is but there's probably a good 6 to 8 inch
grade from three-quarters the back of my lot to the street so they're going to have to put in some
kind of a drainage system inbetween both of our houses to take care of the whole problem I think
because all you're going to do is shift it around.
Mayor Furlong: I guess the question would be, that's been existing for a while, correct? I mean
since.
Bill Ashenbach: You mean the problem's been existing for a while?

M
Chanhassen City Council — November 24, 2014
Mayor Furlong: Yeah. Oh yeah it has nothing's changed there. It's been the way for, we've
been there 40 years and it's.
Mayor Furlong: So I guess my question would be, is if by subdividing this and creating a new
lot and capturing all the water on that new lot so none of it goes to the existing house, therefore
goes down to you, what I'm hearing being proposed is all the water for the new lot will be
captured there and moved out to the street.
Bill Ashenbach: Right and I've got to ... that's going to work.
Mayor Furlong: Yep and so it shouldn't add any more water to the existing home or the.
Bill Ashenbach: Existing home.
Mayor Furlong: Or the parcel too.
Bill Ashenbach: Well it's going to have to do something. Well.
Mayor Furlong: Well and that's I guess my question Mr. Oehme is, is any of the water from
Parcel 1 from an engineering standpoint, is that going to add to whatever currently exists on
Parcel 2?
Paul Oehme: No I mean the intent is to capture the water as much as we can in the drain tile
system before it ends up in Parcel 2. So we're trying to improve as much as we can the grading
and the ground water issues on Parcel 1. Parcel 2, that's not part of the proposal right now.
Bill Ashenbach: Because I know they put a, when they put the street in I asked them if they
would put in a, I don't know what they call it. It's an offshoot for about 8 feet so if we had to we
could hook up a drainage pipe between our two houses over to the sewer system and the new
owner of course he died and we never got it done so, but.
Mayor Furlong: Is the drain tile along West 65`s on both sides or not?
Paul Oehme: I believe it is. There's on both the north and south side.
Mayor Furlong: So is that available to any resident?
Paul Oehme: Yeah we just ask for a permit to hook up to it.
Bill Ashenbach: Okay. Well I just wanted to bring it to your attention. Thank you.
Mayor Furlong: Okay, thank you. Others that would like to speak.
Chris Jerdee: Can I speak again?

Chanhassen City Council — November 24, 2014
Mayor Furlong: Real quickly.
Chris Jerdee: Alright. I guess.
Mayor Furlong: Mr. Jerdee correct?
Chris Jerdee: Yes, Chris Jerdee again. I live to the west. It sounds like a lot of hopefuls and the
intent and a lot of we're hopeful the water's going to drain. The intent is the drain tile's going to
drain the water. Who's going to be there to make sure that happens because I live to the west
and if this whole lot gets raised up 3 feet I have the same concern that Bill does. Does that water
now come onto my property and we're hopeful that that drain tile pushes the water out? I mean
being hopeful is great and all but when, and we're going to take a, I read the soil report and I'm
no expert. It was online. They're going to have to excavate up to 7 feet of soil where this house
is going to sit to put a house on grade, which is pretty rare right? I mean I don't know many
people who build a house on grade. On a slab in a half sized lot. It seems like a lot of downside
to this and not a whole lot of upside. No one here in the neighborhood, I know this doesn't really
weigh into it, is really in favor of this and we're just, we're hopeful that these gentlemen aren't
going to do it. Somebody's going to come in and buy it and put the money into this lot. I don't
see it happening and I don't understand why it would be approved so I'm going to ask you to not
approve this development because there's just too many questions around it.
Mayor Furlong: Mr. Oehme what, what verification or Ms. Aanenson as well. What verification
that if this is approved by the council tonight that there will be follow through to ensure that's
been addressed this evening and what's in the plans will be done?
Paul Oehme: Sure. So the developer or builder would have to submit grading plans to the City
prior to building so the city staff can review the proposed grading.
Mayor Furlong: Do we have ordinances that go with that?
Paul Oehme: Absolutely so they'll have to submit all that information. There's security that's
submitted in conjunction with those, with those permits as well.
Mayor Furlong: Security?
Paul Oehme: Yeah security of.
Mayor Furlong: A deposit.
Paul Oehme: Deposit yeah so, and then the City also has inspectors that come out periodically
and a final inspection after the building is completed and grading is complete to verify that it's
built per plan.
Mayor Furlong: Okay. Ahight, thank you. Anyone else who would like to address the council
this evening?

John Favorite: Can I have 15 more seconds, sir?
Mayor Furlong: Yes.
John Favorite: Well I'm just trying to get.
Mayor Furlong: No, that's fine Mr. Favorite. Thank you.
John Favorite: I'm trying to understand. So this is Parcel 1. You're going to jack the back up 3
feet. Here's the parcel that Mr. Ashenbach's talking about that's always wet. How are you
going to stop some of this water from going, where does the slope occur? What happens there?
I'm trying to understand that. Do you follow me why that's hard to understand?
Mayor Furlong: I do. What I'm hearing from the City Engineer is between the grading and the
drain tile system and the catch basins, that's how it's being engineered is to catch the water.
John Favorite: Okay, the drain tile is only on one side of the street which is the south side and
it's about 14-16 inches underground.
Mayor Furlong: Are you talking about the City drain tile?
John Favorite: Correct.
Mayor Furlong: Yeah.
John Favorite: So how do you slope like from let's say Parcel, or Lot 2, how do you slope from
Lot 2 to that? From the very back.
Mayor Furlong: Can we pull up that picture again? Of the two lots. Two parcels.
John Favorite: I'm just trying to understand.
Mayor Furlong: No, and that's fine.
John Favorite: All the geometry here.
Mayor Furlong: Mr. Oehme, drain tile on Lot 1 or Parcel 1 runs along both side boundaries
correct?
Paul Oehme: Correct.
Mayor Furlong: Both side lot lines.
John Favorite: So that's like this right here then?
Mayor Furlong: That's my understanding. Both sides.

John Favorite: That's interesting, okay. But the ... current home there doesn't have anything.
Mayor Furlong: The current home, the conditions exist there exist there today is my
understanding so that's not being changed.
John Favorite: Okay. I see what you're trying to do but geometry wise it doesn't work out with
how low her property is in back and to have this, and her property line's here. Her property is
down here so then what happens here? Just...
Mayor Furlong: Mr. Oehme.
Paul Oehme: Well again, you know the grades tie into the property over here. They're only
changing.
John Favorite: Just on the comer.
Paul Oehme: Well I mean they change right in through here so this is, this area is being raised
up to eliminate the low point.
Mayor Furlong: Is it already lower than the property to the south?
John Favorite: No it is not.
Paul Oehme: Well.
John Favorite: Just for that, just for that last 10 percent.
Paul Oehme: Well just for this comer here I think it's the low point.
John Favorite: Just for that last 10 percent.
Paul Oehme: Right so.
Mayor Furlong: What I heard is that the low area in the southwest portion of this Parcel 1.
John Favorite: Yes.
Mayor Furlong: Where people said there was water standing, that that's going to be filled in. Is
that correct?
Paul Oehme: Correct.
Mayor Furlong: And then the rest, and then the additional soils will be put on top of that?

Chanhassen City Council — November 24, 2014
John Favorite: How do you fill that in? Her's is, so then you're going to be above her, the
property to the south.
James Brudos: If you look at.
John Favorite: Pardon me sir, he's not even the applicant so.
Mayor Furlong: He's representing the applicant and if I want him to speak I'll let him speak so
ask your question and then we'll try to get an answer for it.
John Favorite: I'm just trying to understand how you go from this to not have a slope in the rear
yard.
Mayor Furlong: Okay, Mr. Oehme.
Paul Oehme: So again the house pad is going to be raised up. The water is going to be sheet
drained around the building here. This area gets raised up and then redirected along the property
lines into the drain tile system so you know this area is being raised up. The house is being, the
house elevation is raised but the elevations along the property line remain the same.
John Favorite: But a downpour for example or whatever, you get a gusher or one in a hundred
storm every 6 years that we get, I mean it's going to shed off the property and onto everybody
else's. It has to because it's going to be elevated higher than everybody else.
Paul Oehme: Right, it will and that's typical for normal developments.
John Favorite: Okay. Alright, thanks.
Mayor Furlong: Mr. Brudos, anything you'd like to add?
James Brudos: Well if you look at the grading proposal, if you look at the topography and the
elevation they'll pretty much stay. You see the lines in the southwestern comer.
Mayor Furlong: You're looking at Parcel I now? Southwest corner of Parcel 1.
James Brudos: Yes, correct. That represents the topography and it descends from the back of
her lot to the back of the Parcel 1 so the elevation change, her elevation is I believe 3 feet higher
than the Parcel 1 is in the back of the lot. So there's not going to be a low spot. It's going to be
a continual grade down. And it won't be that significant of a grade as well. The areas that are
being actually built up is around the foundation to shed water away from the building. So the
low points are between the homes where the drain file is located and the drain tile is I believe at
its lowest point where it connects to the street on the south side is approximately 5 feet below
grade so we've got plenty of slope.
Mayor Furlong: Okay, thank you. Anyone else who would like to address the council or the
public hearing?

Mayor Furlong: If you could step back up.
Peg Trager: Physically see it you know.
Mayor Furlong: Okay.
Peg Trager: But just see this spot. It's hard to imagine that it's going to all drain towards the
street. Especially when I'm behind it.
Mayor Furlong: Right.
Peg Trager: I don't know. Maybe I'll be just fine with a pond. I'm sure it's going to be there
because the way this land is. I don't know.
Mayor Furlong: Okay, thank you.

James Brudos: 2061.
Mayor Furlong: Where's your current residence address Mr. Corey?
John Corey: 6409 Oxbow Bend, Chanhassen.
Mayor Furlong: Thank you.
John Corey: We've been working on Parcel number 2 for 4 months now and we haven't had any
kind of flooding or water issues with there. We have some good drainage between Parcel
number 1 and 2 when it rains. There's some good drainage inbetween the two lots. We had a
big rain storm where it rained 24 hours straight. We took a bunch of pictures which we gave you
guys the pictures or when we sent in the proposal we showed the pictures. There's no standing
water whatsoever. Just in one area next to Parcel 1 where it butts up to the neighbor to the west.
His lot is about 2 feet higher than our Parcel 1 where I heard that he had added dirt there
anyways to raise his lot and he currently has an ice skating rink there that is probably about a
half of a football field and that's obviously going to drain into our lot as well causing it to flood
so once we raise the water, or the ground level to be even with his lot we won't have that
flooding issue as well. So that's all I have to say.

matter? Actually you've spoken twice sir.
Chris Jerdee: Well can I just respond to what he just said? I'm the neighbor to the west.
Mayor Furlong: You are the neighbor to the west. I'll give you one minute.
Chris Jerdee: Yeah, thanks. Again Chris Jerdee, I live to the west. This problem has been
around for 30 years. I've been there for 4. The dirt that's there, I had some landscaping done.
They moved some dirt out to level it out. I didn't have a, I don't know how much dirt you think
I brought in. There was some brought in to fill low spots. The ice rink, it's actually amusing
that we're here talking about an ice rink but I did install drain tile to help get rid of some of the
surface water.
Mayor Furlong: Good.
Chris Jerdce: Not only to the ice rink. More the rain and the snow melt and like I said I tried to
put a drain and pay for a drain on the Parcel 1 that he did not want me to install so.
Mayor Furlong: Okay. Alright, thank you. Thank you Mr. Jerdee. Anyone else with new
comments? Thank you everybody. If nobody else would like to speak, is there a motion to close
the public hearing?
Councilwoman Ernst: So moved.
Mayor Furlong: Thank you. Is there a second?
Councilman Laufenburger: Second.
Mayor Furlong: Any discussion on the motion to close the public hearing? Hearing none we'll
proceed with the vote.
Councilwoman Ernst moved, Councilman Laufenburger seconded to close the public
hearing. All voted in favor and the motion carried unanimously with a vote of 5 to 0. The
public hearing was closed.
Mayor Furlong: Let's bring it back to council then for discussion and comments or additional
questions. If people have questions of staff. I do. Councilman Laufenburger.
Councilman Laufenburger: Thank you. Paul, you used some terms that I think would be helpful
for, it will be helpful for me to understand anyway. You talk about a sheet drain. What does
sheet draining mean?
Paul Oehme: So basically it's just level ground elevation, a natural slope where the water will
drain naturally from Point A to Point B basically. So it's just a laminar flow across a ground.
30

Chanhassen City Council — November 24, 2014
Councilman Laufenburger: So any water that doesn't go down into the ground and be absorbed,
it just goes across the surface slowly.
Paul Oehme: Right.
Councilman Laufenburger: And it will, the sheet drain essentially you're building kind of an
upsidedown saucer, right? So the water just drains towards this tile.
Paul Oehme: Correct.
CouncilmanLaufenburger: Okay. And you said the tile is how far below the ground, the surface
of the ground?
Paul Oehme: Anywhere between 2 to 3 feet.
Councilman Laufenburger: What is between the tile, this 6 inch pipe? What's between the tile
and the surface right above it?
Paul Oehme: Between the tile. There's just.
Councilman Laufenburger: Dirt or is it gravel?
Paul Oehme: Well yeah it's dirt but I believe in this area the soil will be corrected so typically
would bring in granular material. Sand and typically would bed the tile in that.
Councilman Laufenburger: So it would make sense then this sheet, this saucer that we're
building, potentially building, the water would go towards the edges and then it would essentially
fall through this gravel or rock or something and it would go straight down to the tile.
Paul Oehme: Correct.
Councilman Laufenburger: Two feet.
Paul Oehme: Yeah, two feet.
Councilman Laufenburger: What about water that is below the drain tile? What does that do?
Paul Oehme: Yeah so I mean, if there's water below the tile it's not going to be able to get into
the tile but if the water table raises to a certain elevation above the tile, invert or top of the tile,
that water, the tile will be perforated so the water will have ability to go into that tile at that point
in time.
Councilman Laufenburger: Okay so the notion here, in my mind I'm thinking, this drain tile
does not exist today is that correct?
Paul Oehme: Correct.

Chanhassen City Council — November 24, 2014
Councilman Laufenburger: Okay. So this drain tile and the gravel potentially above it is really
creating kind of the edge of a pool. So any water that's in there, it's not going to be able to go
outside of the pool. It's going to go to the edge of the pool and then go into the drain tile.
Paul Oehme: Right. Correct. So anything that's, any soils that are corrected, replacing the clay
with a granular material, a sand or whatever, that water will be fixed into that site. Into that
excavation area and we're the, any water that would end up in that location will be able to be
discharged or removed by the tile.
Councilman Laufenburger: Okay. And the water that is doing this natural drainage today, if it's
not going into a drain tile, it's going to a low point and those points appear to be the southwest
comer of the property and potentially the southeast over towards Parcel 2, is that correct?
Paul Oebme: Right. Right
Councilman Laufenburger: And some of it goes to Ms. Trager's property on the south, right?
Paul Oehme: Well I think Ms. Trager's property, most of that water drains from her property
onto Parcel 1.
Councilman Laufenburger: Onto Parcel 1.
Paul Oehme: Parcel 1 and then eventually onto Parcel 2 so we're, again with this proposal we're
trying to eliminate that low point on Parcel 1. There would be some, again some drainage that
would end up going, all the drainage would end up going to the north but there, again there
would be some drainage that would end up on Parcel 2 but we're trying to capture as much of the
water on Parcel 1. Directing it into the drain tile and then heading north before it ends upon
Parcel 2.
Councilman Laufenburger: Okay. Next question. This is a proposed grading and none of this
will occur until and unless a building permit is pulled, is that correct?
Paul Oehme: That's correct.
Councilman Laufenburger: Okay so any expense associated with this grading and tiling plan,
this will not be incurred by either the developer or a builder until such time that a permit is
pulled.
Paul Oehme: Yeah, I mean that's, Kate can answer that but.
Councilman Laufenburger: Is that correct Kate?
Paul Oehme: We have to have a building permit and approved plans before they can start
construction.

Chanhassen City Council — November 24, 2014
Councilman Laufenburger: Okay. Alright, so let's talk more about the, can you tell me is there
tile, is there planned tile on the south end of this parcel?
Paul Oehme: There is not.
Councilman Laufenburger: Okay so I'm looking at, what I'm looking at right now is just below
and to the left of the letter P. It looks like there's a catch basin. That's the beginning of the tile
on the west side of the property.
Paul Oehme: That's correct.
Councilman Laufenburger: And then straight east of the L there's a catch basin. So from there
all the way over to the lower left there's no drain tile there.
Paul Oehme: Right and again that's sheet draining.
Councilman Laufenburger: That's sheet draining and the sheet draining would be towards both
the west and the east side of the property.
Paul Oehme: Right. A lot of the water's going to get directed into the catch basins.
Councilman Laufenburger: Okay. Let's talk about soil corrections. Seven feet, that's 7 feet
vertical right?
Paul Oehme: Correct.
Councilman Laufenburger: Okay. So you're going to request that the soil corrections occur 5
feet below the current water table?
Paul Oehme: Right.
Councilman Laufenburger: Okay.
Paul Oehme: And again the soil engineer took soil borings out here. I don't know there's a
couple.
Councilman Laufenburger: This is the geotechnical report.
Paul Oehme: The geotechnical report so they took several borings out here. We have to verify
that just to make sure that you know it's not 8 feet in some areas so we definitely have to be out
there and make sure that all the soils are taken out that are unsuitable.
Councilman Laufenburger: Okay. And so you take out the mottled soil, I think is the way Kate
described it, and that would be clay, right?
Paul Oehme: Right. Right.

Councilman Laufenburger: Including the septic system. How deep is the septic system, do we
know?
Paul Oehme: Oh, I don't know. Typically about 5 to 8 feet. Five to 6 feet down.
Councilman Laufenburger: So essentially, and by the way the soil corrections will it occur over
all 15,165 square feet of this parcel?
Paul Oehme: No, it's mainly addressing the foundation soil corrections underneath the house
pad. There is some, again there is some soil corrections a little bit outside of the house pad but a
majority of it is, will be dealt with for the house pad.
Councilman Laufenburger: So this is to give a strong footing if you will for the house pad so
that it doesn't.
Paul Oehme: Move.
Councilman Laufenburger: So it doesn't move. Good, okay. I think that's all I have for now.
Thank you.
Mayor Furlong: Alright, thank you. Any additional questions?
Councilwoman Ernst: I have one quick question.
Mayor Furlong: Councilwoman Ernst.
Councilwoman Ernst: So Paul you said that there is no drain tile on the south side of the
property, correct?
Paul Oehme: Correct.
Councilwoman Ernst: Is there a catch basin on the south side?
Paul Oehme: Well there's one on the west side, the southwest side, and there's one on the
southeast side.
Councilwoman Ernst: Okay.
Paul Oehme: Along the property line but there's not on the south end of the property line itself.
Todd Gerhardt: Paul show her the one with 61.5 topography is in the middle and then half the
lot is to drain to the one catch basin.
Paul Oehme: Right, to this one.
KL!

Chanhassen City Council — November 24, 2014
Todd Gerhardt: And then the other half is to the other. It's like a foot lower where each of those
catch basins are than the 1061.5.
Paul Oehme: Right. So the area here is depressed to capture some of that water from the back
yards and direct it in the catch basins.
Todd Gerhardt: So sheet drain.
Paul Oehme: Yep.
Mayor Furlong: So those catch basins are at the surface but they're lower than the elevation of
the back of the lot?
Paul Oehme: Right, correct. So it's, again it's going to sheet drain from the back yard and end
up in this catch basin and the grading along the property line is such that it's 2 percent to the
north. There's another depression here at this catch basin to capture that water that's on the side
of the house and then the drain tile ends up to the north so, and then all the property will drain to
the street on the north side of the house.
Mayor Furlong: Any other questions at this time?
Councilwoman Ernst: Well I'm just wondering if it would make sense to do anything on the
south side of the house in addition to what we've already talked about.
Paul Oehme: Well we could talk to the developer or the contractor about that. I don't know if
they would be running out of grade in terms of trying to get the, any more drain file out here but
that's something we can discuss. I mean we're eliminating the, we're eliminating the low point,
the depression here. We're capturing as much of the water in these catch basins. I don't know
how much more, adding another catch basin to the south will help.
Councilwoman Ernst: And that's my question. If we do something there is it going to help? I
don't.
Paul Oehme: I don't think it will because we have two catch basins here already and we're
capturing a majority of the water that ends up in this back yard already.
Councilwoman Ernst: Okay, thank you.
Mayor Furlong: Thank you. Councilman Laufenburger.
Councilman Laufenburger: Yeah, yeah. Paul there's a, the discussion from the neighbors, I
think maybe it brought into question whether or not your plan would work. Have we done
anything like this or have developers done anything like this? This drain tile around the
perimeter of a lot in the past.

Chanhassen City Council — November 24, 2014
Paul Oehme: Oh I think we have and that's maybe a key question too but I know we've required
drain file in the past for certain hard or more difficult lots so.
Councilman Laufenburger: Is there anything, this seems like, and I'm not an engineer but this
seems like just an engineering problem that you plan for and you execute on, is that correct?
Paul Oehme: Yeah, I mean we're comfortable with the design moving forward.
Kate Aanenson: I would give the closest example to this is the one we recently approved which
was the Knoblauch subdivision, which had, we came through off of West 86' Street.
Councilman Laufenburger: The Mission Hills area?
Kate Aanenson: Yep. Came through that.
Mayor Furlong: Sixteen lots.
Kate Aanenson: Yeah, came through that. Yeah, the 16 lots and we had them do some soil
investigation on that and those, we did a PUD on that one. Some smaller lots and that's also a
cul-de-sac on the end of that and so.
Todd Gerhardt: Settlers West. Lakeside all have rear yard drainage systems where catch basins
to take the stormwater off the homes.
Kate Aanenson: Yeah. Where they're adjacent to a bluff or where there were challenges, yep.
So those were engineered to make sure we had positive flow to the street as opposed to the over
the bluff.
Councilman Laufenburger: I just have one more question Kate. Is there anything about request
for subdivision that requires either a variance or, anything that would require our approval for a
deviation in order for this subdivision to occur?
Kate Aanenson: No, when it originally came in we felt that under the subdivision regulations we
didn't have enough information to address the drainage issues. Based on the geotechnical report
that we did, again that's engineering and we do sometimes this on other subdivisions that based
on that we've addressed those as conditions of approval. That based on that it would meet the
subdivision regulations without variance. Just conditions of approval.
Mayor Furlong: Okay, thank you. Councilwoman Ernst question.
Councilwoman Ernst: So and this point is for Paul but Paul if, I mean we want to make sure that
this is the right thing to do if we move forward with it but my question really is, after this is
done, who's going to monitor it to make sure? I mean I don't want us spending a lot of time out
there. Tbat's the purpose of us going through this whole process but how do we, how do we
make sure that it's working like it's supposed to?
M,

Chanhassen City Council —November 24, 2014
Paul Oehme: So what's being proposed is a private system so it connects into the city's system
but you know we're going to be monitoring it and making sure that the plan is built per plan so
after that you know it's up to the property owner of Parcel 1 to make sure that the catch basins
are cleaned out on a regular basis and they're not clogged and that there's no debris in the tile so
it's functioning properly.
Councilwoman Ernst: And do we have that as a requirement somewhere where that's the
responsibility of that homeowner?
Paul Oehme: Well it's again it's a private system so it's, it's part of the development plan that
that's their responsibility to maintain those systems. Just like a water service or sanitary sewer
service.
Councilwoman Ernst: Okay.
Mayor Furlong: If there are no more questions, thoughts. Comments. By members of the
council. Mr. McDonald.
Councilman McDonald: Comments at this point?
Mayor Furlong: I think so, unless there are additional questions let's move onto comments and
see where we go.
Councilman McDonald: Well I mean I've listened to all of this and yeah it is an engineering
problem. It does sound as though we have a solution. Whether it works or not, if I were living
on the street I guess I'd be a little skeptical too but you know we do have some experience with
this. We've come a long ways in this city in dealing with water problems and I think we've
learned a lot as to how to control water on certain lots. We've gotten a lot better so I have
confidence in the engineering plan. The only other thing that I looked at is does it meet the code
requirements and it does. Based upon all of that I see no reason not to vote for it. Again I
understand your concerns about the water but you're not the only area in town that's had
concerns about water and we've managed to address those in other areas. And I do think you
know we had the thing the last council meeting about monitoring systems and everything and we
agreed at that point, it's up to the individual owners. I mean they live in the neighborhood. They
understand the importance of the system. It's their responsibility to take care of that. It's not the
City's. We approve a plan that we believe will work. It's up to them to make sure that it
continues to work, or if not to fix it so based upon all of that, I see no reason not to vote for it.
Mayor Furlong: Thank you. Other comments. Councilwoman Tjomhom.
Councilwoman Tjornhom: Yeah I also see, I see no reason not to vote for it. I think tonight we
had a healthy discussion regarding water and drainage and obviously there's still some
anticipation as to what the future will hold if this improvements do actually come to fruition and
they're put in place. I feel confident saying that staff feels confident that they have engineered
something that should alleviate the problems and it sounds to me like the water problem is
coming from, it's coming up. It's not the rain water coming down. It's coming up from the

Chanhassen City Council — November 24, 2014
ground and so hopefully putting drain tiles in and changing the elevation will alleviate some of
that pressure that now is there on that lot and maybe the rest of your lots also. It does seem to
meet all the requirements to be, have a lot split and so I too will just be supporting what staff has
put in front of us.
Mayor Furlong: Thank you. Other comments. Councilwoman Ernst.
Councilwoman Ernst: Yeah so obviously the applicant has met the ordinance requirements in
terms of the 24 percent impervious surface, the setbacks as well as the street and utility
requirements. My concern really comes to the drainage issue obviously and my point was really
not to make sure that the City was going to monitor the water problem but to make sure that we
had that documented somewhere where the developer or the owner's responsible for that. So
based on what we have in front of us today I would support this project.
Mayor Furlong: Thank you. Mr. Laufenburger.
Councilman Laufenburger: Thank you Mr. Mayor. I think that it was good to hear the citizens
talk about what your concerns are and I understand your concerns about the water because
you're sharing examples of what's happening with your own property. Mr. Atherton you talked
about water in your basement. Boy I'm very sympathetic to that. I've had water in my basement
in some of my homes and it's difficult to deal with it. If that was an alert for what might happen
with the property owner in Parcel 1, well he's not going to have a basement. He or she's not
going to have a basement so that's going to be, that issue will be resolved. But I think there's a
kind of an underlying thing here that we need to not forget and that is that the property owner has
rights to use his property, his or her property in accordance with what's available to him and it
seems to me because there's you know all the setbacks are met. All of the lot sizes. The
building footprint. All of those things are met. We can't stand in the way of that property owner
exercising his rights, just as any of the other property owners on West 65's or even on Crestview.
They have rights to use their land as they choose to as long as they follow the guidelines. I think
that there's something underneath all of this though that is kind of getting in the way of this
neighborhood accepting this and that is, you know I said this a couple weeks ago or maybe a
month ago that you know we can have ordinances to affect setback and we can have an
ordinance to affect you know property lines and stuff like that but we don't have any ordinances
for neighborhood harmony and I'm thinking that maybe we should explore some of those a little
bit. I will vote in support of this subdivision.
Mayor Furlong: Thank you. I think the, I appreciate the comments everybody made tonight and
the concerns clearly water. Ground water problems have been an issue for a long time in this
neighborhood, as they are in other parts of the city. This subdivision isn't going to correct all of
that. There's no expectation I don't think on anybody's part that it would. As was mentioned I
think a couple of council members here, one of our jobs is to make sure when somebody comes
in for a request that they're following the law. That they're following the ordinances and those
are rules that are consistent for everybody so everybody plays by the same rules. One of the
questions that came up tonight was what about all the neighbors? I mean if this is the first one,
what about the other ones and let's plan ahead. And a very valid question and I think the answer
that I would have to that is that if the other properties follow the same rules then they should
M

Chanhassen City Council — November 24, 2014
receive the same result and if that result is that you know as we look at these, the first question is,
is the proposal meeting our ordinances? For all situations we talk about the dimensions of the
property and the proposed setbacks for a possible house. Impervious surface coverage. Those
are all there and we deal with a few metes and bounds subdivisions on an annual basis. This is
not the first one that we work with but they come and usually they don't have with them the
added I'll call baggage of a high water table and water problems that this one obviously has.
That this neighborhood has and in those cases, to my recollection we don't require drain tile. We
don't require grading plans necessarily. It's fairly straight forward. If they meet the definitions
we approve it. Here I think, and I'll give credit to the residents for raising the issue and staff for
dealing with the issue, it's something more than just simple lines on a map. Lines on a parcel.
Are the dimensions correct? Are the setbacks correct? Is the impervious coverage correct? One
of the challenges is to make sure that the change the new lot doesn't create negative effects on
the neighboring property owners. I think that is part of, from an ordinance standpoint and
driving water from one parcel to another parcel would certainly create a negative effect and I
think here what's, what's been clear to me is that the engineering staff at the city and the experts
that were retained by the property owner have said there's a water problem there and here are
ways to correct the water problem. Water is a problem when you don't want it there. When you
need it, want it and it's not there, then it's also a problem but that's a drought and that's a
different deal. We don't have that here. So by designing and engineering a plan that will
address the problem of the water on this newly created parcel. It's not going to fix the existing
parcel, Parcel 2. It's not going to fix other problems in the neighborhood. Drain file systems
might be the solution there for those that are interested in doing that but I think here the
conditions in the report that are being recommended I think are appropriate. While they add
extra burden and extra costs to the property owner they do so in a way to minimize the negative
impact that this subdivision would otherwise likely have on the neighboring property so I think
that's appropriate to do that. And the question was how do we know that these are going to
happen? The answer I think is what I was expected to here and that's through the permit and the
inspection process. If anybody's built a house, put an addition on, sought a permit to do that.
Everybody does that I know Kate every time that they add an addition or do an improvement to
their house they get a permit but if they do that they'll know that inspectors come out and that's
just part of that process and whatever that is, and in this case there'll be additional inspections
with regard to the site preparation. With regard to the grading plan and making sure that the
drainage system is installed correctly and to plan so I think those are the checks and balances to
make sure it's installed correctly and is going to do what it intends to do. So I think from that
standpoint the rules are there so that as Mr. Laufenburger said, each of us who own property in
the city, we have private property rights and as a government body we need to protect those but
we need to do it in a way so that somebody exercising their private property rights, in this case to
subdivide, doesn't impose a negative effect on the neighbors and I think that check, that balance
there is with the engineering plan for the drainage system is to prevent that so I think from that
standpoint the subdivision, it does meet the ordinance for approval. I think we should approve it
and also including the conditions to prevent the negative effects on neighboring properties
because of the subdivision and have the inspection department and engineering department make
sure, the planning department make sure that eventually when a house is built on this new parcel
that it's done correctly and that the plan is followed so for that reason I would suggest and
encourage the council to support this plan. If there are any other comments, I'd be happy to
entertain them or certainly entertain a motion. Councilwoman Ernst.

4. Prior to recording the subdivision a $10,000 security must be provided to ensure that the
street is restored. The security can be released when the City determines that the patch is
in good condition after one freeze -thaw cycle.
5. Sewer and water hookup charges are due for the new lot, a portion of which shall be
collected before the metes and bounds subdivision is recorded:
Water: 1 unit x $1,886/unit = $1,886
Sewer: 1 unit x $664/unit = $664
6. If the final subdivision submittals are received after 2014, all fees shall be recalculated

AWARD OF BID FOR HIGHOVER BOULDER WALL REPAIR AND APPROVE
Mayor Furlong: Let's start with a staff report on this item. Mr. Oehme, is that you?
Paul Oehme: Yes it is.
Mayor Furlong: Okay, great. Thank you everyone.
Paul Oehme: Thank you Mayor, City Council members. This is again to consider approval of
bid for reconstructing a boulder wall that had failed in June of this year so just a little
background about this area. The Highover development was approved by the City Council in
1997 along with the boulder wall. The boulder wall was constructed with the development.
Originally the wall was designed and planned for, for a future trail which is shown here. On this
plan, this is the retaining walls as they are. The outlot, which is right here, which most of the
boulder wall is on, was also planned for that trail. But since the development was approved there
is no future plans for that trail to be installed. Most of the wall again was constructed within the
City right-of-way or again on the outlot, and this Highover Homeowners Association maintains.
Mows and maintains this outlot for the city. It's kind of an entry monument to their
neighborhood so. On June 19's of this year we did have one of the, a significant rain event and
prior to that this spring and into the early part of summer was one of the wettest years the City of
Chanhassen has on record. Soils around the wall became very saturated and loose and the soil
strength was significantly reduced because of that soil moisture in the wall. In the soil in back of
the wall became unstructural and very weak at that time. Portions of the wall, the portion of the
wall that did fail was main section right in the middle of where the, or a large section of the wall
did fail but the City did come back and have to remove or knock down a significant amount more
of the wall because that wall was, was starting to move and slough off as well so for safety
reasons the City decided to knock that portion of the wall down as well. The City also did meet
with FEMA representatives and the wall is eligible for FEMA funding as well based upon the
rain event that took place in June of 19 of this year. So the proposed reconstruction plan is
shown here. The City's responsible for, we feel addressing the portion of the wall that sits
within our city right-of-way along Highover Drive and then on the outlot. A portion of the wall
that is on private property we have recommended that that portion of the wall be paid for either
by the homeowners association or the private party. Property owner that's adjacent to the wall.
Staff did lead the effort in terms of surveying and geotechnical and design work to get the project
moving. We have met with the property owner and HOA and they both proposed to pay for that
portion of the wall outside of the right-of-way and the outlot. This is just a cross section of what
the new wall would look like. Right now there's clay material that's in back of the wall. That

Page 3 of 8
The applicant is proposing to subdivide the property and locate a single-family home on the
westerly portion of the site. The proposed subdivision meets city ordinance requirements and staff
is recommending approval subject to the conditions of this staff report.
The Moline's Addition plat was filed with
Carver County on December 29, 1969. The
existing home was built in 1981. No other
records exist.
APPLICABLE REGULATIONS
Chapter 18, Subdivisions
Chapter 20, Article XII, "RSF"' Single -Family
Residential District
LAND USE: Residential Low Density
(1.2 — 4.0 units per net acre)
SUBDIVISION REVIEW
The applicant is requesting a
metes and bounds subdivision
creating two lots. The net
density of the development is
2.8 units per acre. Both parcels
meet all the lot area, width and
depth requirements.
Parcel 2, which contains a
single-family home, will have a
total hard surface coverage of
24%. The city code allows up
to 25%. The existing structure
meets all required setback
requirements.
EASEMENTS
MOLINE'S ADDITION
The developer proposes 10 -foot front and rear yard and 5 -foot side yard drainage and utility
easements on each lot, as shown on the plans. The City Attorney shall draft and the developer
shall execute a "Grant of Permanent Easement for Public Drainage and Utility Purposes"
document. This document shall be recorded with the metes and bounds subdivision.

2061 West 65th Street Metes & Bounds Subdivision
November 24, 2014
Page 4 of 8
A roadway, drainage and utility easement must be dedicated over the portion of the existing cul-
de-sac within the property and 15 feet beyond the edge of the road.
Prior to recording the subdivision the developer shall pay the $45 GIS fee: $25 (subdivision) plus
$10/parcel.
STREETS
The proposed subdivision is adjacent to West 65th Street, a 25 -foot wide public street within a
60 -foot wide right of way without curb and gutter. This street was constructed in 1979 and was
overlaid in 2013. The current standard for new streets within Chanhassen is 31 feet wide with
curb and gutter. Staff does not recommend that the developer install curb and gutter along the
property frontage since the remainder of the roadway would remain a rural section.
UTILITIES
There is one sewer and one water service within West 65th Street that provides service to the
existing home. The developer proposes to install a new sewer service to the existing home.
Prior to recording the subdivision, a $10,000 security must be provided to ensure that the street is
restored. The security can be released when the city determines that the patch is in good
condition after one freeze -thaw cycle.
A new water service will be installed to service the proposed lot. The water main is outside of
the street, therefore, there will be no street restoration required with this installation. Based on
the property file in the Building Department the well servicing the existing home was sealed in
2011.
Sewer and water hookup charges are due for the new lot, a portion of which shall be collected
before the metes and bounds subdivision is recorded:
Water: 1 unit x $1,886/unit = $1,886
Sewer: 1 unit x $664/unit = $664
The remainder of the water and sewer hookup fees shall be paid with the building permit at the
rate in effect at that time.
GRADING & EROSION CONTROL
Surface water currently drains from the back to the front of the property. The developer
proposes grading on Parcel 1; Parcel 2 with the existing home will not be altered. The developer
will install a private storm sewer system on the Parcel 1 and grade the property so that surface
runoff will not leave the site. The proposed private storm sewer system will connect to the city
storm sewer in front of Parcel 1. A plumbing permit is required for the private storm sewer; the
plumbing inspector will inspect the connection to the city storm sewer manhole.

There is evidence of high groundwater conditions in the area:
Infiltration into a sanitary sewer manhole in the area. The infiltration was abated with the
2013 street project.
2. Site investigation performed in 1980 by Hakanson Anderson Associates, Inc. (attached)
indicated mottled soils on the property 18 inches below the surface. Mottled soils are
indicative of periodic soil saturation.
3. Site investigation performed in 1981 by Subterranean Engineering, Inc. (attached)
indicating presence of water during borehole drilling, rising to 2.6 feet below the ground
surface.
4. Site investigation performed by Interstate Geotechnical Engineering, Inc on October 25,
2014.
On Parcel 1 the proposed home style as required by City Code Section 18-40 (4) 2 (iii) is a slab -
on -grade home. Based on Interstate Geotechnical Engineering's observations, the groundwater
elevation is 1.8 feet below the ground elevation of the soil boring. The developer must verify the
surface elevation of the boring location to determine the elevation of the groundwater; the lowest
floor must be minimum three feet above that elevation per City Code Section 18-40 (4) 2 (i).
Interstate Geotechnical Engineering recommendations include removal of some of the material
found on the site and placement of controlled fill. On November 13, 2014 Interstate
Geotechnical Engineering provided a follow-up letter with a professional opinion that the
groundwater elevation will return to its original level after the soil corrections are completed on
the lot.
PARKS AND RECREATION
The proposed subdivision is located within an area that is in the municipal park service
boundaries of Pheasant Hill Park and the Minnetonka Middle School West Campus. The
property has access to the city's comprehensive trail system located on Galpin Boulevard. In
lieu of parkland dedication or trail construction, the development shall pay full park fees in force
for the one new lot at the time of subdivision approval. Parks fees for 2014 are $5,800.00 per
single-family lot.
LANDSCAPING AND TREE PRESERVATION
The applicant did not submit tree canopy coverage and preservation calculations. Estimated
calculations are as follows:
Total upland area (excluding wetlands).....................30,324 SF
Baseline canopy coverage..........................................26% or 8,160 SF
Minimum canopy coverage allowed ..........................30% or 9,097 SF
Proposed tree preservation.........................................25% or 7,720 SF
�. Todd Gerhardt
2061 West 65th Street Metes & Bounds Subdivision
November 24, 2014
Page 6 of 8
The applicant does not meet minimum canopy coverage allowed; therefore, the difference
between the baseline and proposed tree preservation is multiplied by 1.2 to calculate the required
replacement plantings:
Difference in canopy coverage ..................................1,377 SF
Multiplier...................................................................1.2
Total replacement .......................................................1,652 SF
Total number of trees to be planted ...........................1 tree
The total number of trees required for the development is one.
There are no bufferyard requirements for this subdivision.
MISCELLANEOUS
A final grading plan and soils report must be submitted to the Inspections Division before building
permits can be issued. Retaining walls over four feet high require a permit and must be designed by
a professional engineer. Each lot must be provided with separate sewer and water services.
