corridor, Hopkins to Chanhassen, Interim Use
The Park and Recreation Commission initially reviewed this item on
April 23, 1991. A copy of the staff report presented that evening
and the corresponding minutes are attached. Prior to addressing
the planning and operational procedurals which would be necessary
to transform the railroad grade1nto a usable trail, a correction
to the recommended budget amount is necessary. As documented in
the minutes of April 23, 1991, the correct estimate for the
purchase of 3/8 minus limestone aggregate is $15,000.00. Recent
investigation reveals that the use of an alternative but somewhat
less desirable material, 3/4 minus limestone would result ~n a cost
savings of approximately $34500.00.
SUBJ:
This being the case, it is embarrassing for me to have recommended
a budget figure of $6,000.00. In preparing a budget recommendation
for this item, I quickly calculated the aggregate quantity a second
time and neglected to refer back to my original work. The $6,000
to $9,000 dollar shortage for aggregate can be addressed by
amending the 1992 proposed budget which will not be forwarded to
the City Council until October 14, 1991. However, larger issues
than the budget amendment loom over this proposed project and prior
to amending the proposed budget, it behooves us to study these.
.
In conducting a site visit of the corridor, a number of discoveries
were made, including the presence .of dramatic vistas, existing
dangerous conditions (road overpasses), the lack of an existing
"trail head" for vehicular parking and trail access and the
massiveness of this proposed trail project. The attached city base
map identifies the existence or absence of these conditions.
Further, it was clearly apparent that the alternative of developing
an equestrian/snowmobile trail in the ditch line of the railroad
right-of-way is not an option along the Chanhassen segment (see
related attachment, letter to Pat Nimmerfroh). In many areas a
ditch does not exist, in others the slopes are extremely severe

adjacent to the track bed and in all the vegetation is dense. It
is my conclusion that the city is clearly not in the position to
simply surface the trail. The clearing of immense quantities of
brush and small trees would be necessary prior to work beginning on
the trail surface as would the construction of safety railing
structures at the Hwy. 101 and Hwy. 212 crossings. The design and
purchase of a signage package would also be necessary. Further,
the corridor lacks defined access points other than the at grade
crossing at Bluff Creek Drive, which is posted "No Parking" on both
sides. Publicly held land is not available for the development of
the trail head comprised of a parking area with accessible
connection to the proposed trail.
Staff has mixed emotions in regard to the two obvious alternatives
available to the City on this item. The first would be to
sufficiently increase the proposed budget and plan on completing
the improvements in 1992. If this is not met with favor from the
Commission, the project must be delayed. The opportunity to
construct a trail of this length bisecting the beautiful terrain
which it does, is unmatched within the city. However, the expense
of constructing the safety railings and the investment of labor,
materials and machinery would be significant. Additional costs
would be accumulated in trucking of aggregate. Further, the lack
of a trail head raises significant doubts about the accessibility
of the proposed trail to the public.
RECOMMENDATION
If it is the wish of the Park and Recreation Commission to move
forward with plans' to complete this project 'in 1992, it is
recommended that staff be directed to prepare a detailed analysis
of the financial investment necessary to complete such, allowing
for a budget amendment to be made at the October Park and
Recreation Commission meeting and further investigate potential
trail head locations.

SUBJECT: Trail Request for Chicago
Northwestern Railroad Right-of-Way
Dear Pat:
On June 17th: the Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission reviewed the staff
recommendation regarding future use of the abandoned railroad right-of-way for public trail
purposes. That recommendation was to limit the trail to pedestrian and bicycle use with the
initial intent to manage the trail for cross country skiing during winter months, and to consider
the development of a parallel multi-use trail for snowmobiles and horses after staff have studied .
the cost of such a trail and the potential for connection to other trails of this type. The
Commission voted unanimously to support that recommendation.
City staff have taken an initial look at the right-of-way and determined that it appears to be
feasible to construct a parallel trail within the right-of-way; however, there are several areas of
wetlands and heavy vegetation that would have to be negotiated to complete a trail parallel to the
pedestrian/bicycle trail and within the right-of-way. This proposed section would begin at
County Road 4 and travel southwesterly within the right-of-way to the Chanhassen City limits.
City staff would not recommend this trail unless it is able to connect to an equestrian trail within
Chanhassen, and there is not a cost estimate for this trail section at this time.
As you may know, the City experienced considerable conflicts between the equestrian trail users
and recreation trail users while an equestrian trail was within Staring Lake Park. A significant
number of equestrian trail users refused to stay on their designated trail and eventually caused
the City to remove that trail. Since that time, the City has developed guidelines for development
of equestrian trails based on standards adopted elsewhere. Most agencies have concluded that
bicycle trails are not compatible as equestrian tralis and recommend a minimum separation of
50'. Although snowmobile trails can be compatible with equestrian trails, snowmobile trails and
cross country ski trails are also incompatible shared uses. In both instances, City staff are 7
concerned about the ability to enforce trail use regulations that would keep snowmobiles on the
snowmobile trail and horses on the equestrian trail when a "non-compatible" trail is within 30-
50' from the trail. Perhaps you could provide a recommendation as to how this could be
accomplished. .

These considerations as well as the cost to construct an equestrian/snowmobile trail will" be
discussed by the Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission and the City Council, if
the City of Chanhassen decides to provide a snowmobile/equestrian trail connection on their
portion of the railroad right-of-way. I will inform you when this item will be discussed at the
Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission and City Council.

C~ thE tr~ils and police it so they would stay where they're supposed to
be. th~t would be a different thing. But when you run past an open area
likE that, unless you have some kind of constant police patrol, people are
d~finitely going to go into an area like that.
Lash: That's a good point and 1 would not like to see that happen. when
you mer,tioned the Luce Line you said there were certain areas that were
designated and maybe that's a solution that we could look at here and just
havp th2motorized be west of the bluff area or something. I don't know.
J'm not saying that J feel strongly one way or the other. I'm just saying
r would~'t feel comfortable tonight ruling out motorized vehicles as fa)- as
J'm concErned. But I do think that this is an opportunity, especially in
this part cf town. We really don't have much of a trail system down there.
We're scsnt on east/west connectors. Any kind of trail system as it is now
S0 I thin~ it's a perfect opportunity for us to jump in there.
Koutsky: J think it's a nice opportunity we ought to consider also. I was
wondcri~~ Todd, it is n~~ owned by the railroad. It looks like it's been
purchased by the Rail Authority. I know this is an impossible question but
do thpy hav? any idea if they would ever really intend to use this? If we
de\/€Joi=lE.d it.
f:offrLE~: That's their eventual intent is to use that as a light rail
t)-F~sit corridor. Now the crystal ball is when exactly will light rail
tranE~t tr developed. 10-15-20-40 years from now.
.
Koubs k,; : Those aT e Pl- obabl y the i r projectsions at least.
La~;h: ~,c,nle..Jh€Te between 20 and 50 years. 10 and 50 years.
Robin=oG= At the rate they're going.
Schreers: Somewhere between now and eternity.
Robi~son: Right.
Lash: In our lifetime. Well I guess I think we need to keep that in
consideration as far as the cost factor goes. I think we need to keep this
down as much as possible in the event that say it is only 10 years away.
Koubsky: I guess another discussional point. How do you police, I'm
fairly ne..J on the Board so forgive me. How do you police motorized or
non-motorized? If you were to dedicate it one or the other. This is a
fairly unpopulated area of the city. We put Class V or whatever surface we
wanted it, it's a perfect opportunity for any type of traffic, truck
traffic or whatever, to utilize it. There'll be a lot of maintenance
involved. I can see motorized vehicles doing a lot mOTe damage than good,
especially if it. wasn't asphalted. How do you police that type of thing
other than posting a sign?
.
Schroers: You post the sign and you target that area to the local
authorities and to the CSO and whatever other resources you have available
and you write a whole bunch of tickets.
Park and Rec Commissior, ,1eeting
April 23, 1991 - Page 14
Koubsky: Is that effective?
..
Schroers: In some cases it is. I mean it deters turning it into a
motorized recreation area versus a non-motorized area. I .have experience
with several areas like this and when it's a new area and it's designated
and you've got brand new signs out there and the authorities are out there
writing tickets, the word spreads. People are just going to get 2 or 3
tickets and it starts to impact them to the point where they say it's not
worth it. You can't go there without getting busted. We've got to find
someplace else. Then you are going to have your occasional person going
out there that might get away with it but initially if you target the area
and police it as heavily as you can, that seems to be pretty effective:
Koubsky: I guess those are my comments.
Robinson: I think this is a real opportunity for us. It sounds like it
would not t.ake a lot of money to make it at least a walking trail or a
horse trail or something. Some small amount of rock. I think we should
exert our efforts at this time to do what it takes to get this right-of-
way and then determine where we go from there but it sounds like a real
opportunity that I don't think we can pass up.
Pemrick: My husband and I were out driving and we saw these ties being
ripped up and we thought are they being replaced or what and the next thing
I get a call from Eldon Burkwin, my neighbor and I was at the Homeowner's
Association meeting last night but I had to leave early so I didn't get a
chance to get feedback from most of the people, although those I sat by die
agree to a trail is definitely wanted. And I've heard figures of like
$12,000.00 or $13,000.00. Now am I imagining this?"
Hoffman: That would be in the low range for the material. The aggregate
surface which would be similar to the aggregate trail which is i~stalled up
in the northwest corner which is crushed limestone, 3/8 inch or finer.
Right around that $15,000.00 for that material itself and then obviously
installation costs.
Pemrick: So what do they think the cost would be with installation?
Hoffman: Depending on if installation was contracted or performed by the
City. If it was performed by the City, then it's obviously just the hours.
You you from the Public Works and Park Maintenance personnel.
Pemrick: How long is this section that goes through Chanhassen?
Hoffman: I'm guessing approximately 4 miles. If anybody in the audience
knows.
Public: They bought...which is across from 212 where it starts in Eden
Prairie. I don't think it's 4 miles but I don't know. I don't know what
the mile marker is.
Hoffman: To that point it certainly would not be but the entire segment
across.

.
Pemrick: Well I'm all in favor of it. I think most people would be.
a natural thing to do and I think we should pursue it wholeheartedly.
It's
.
Andrews: I agree. We should signal our intent that we would like to have
this designated as a trail. Funding is our crisis and probably wil.l be
more so each year here over the next couple years so I guess I'm concerned
about cost and I'm wondering if it would be feasible just to grade off the
heavy rock or to run some sort of roller or crusher over it and make it
more useable and perhaps just leave it as it is until we have the money to
resurface it. The other concern I have is if it does become, or if we do
resurface it and it's not property owned by the City of Chanhassen, how is
maintenance going to be handled and who's responsible for it in the
future? So that's a concern but that's a concern that's a little premature
at this point. And obviously I agree with some of the other commissioners
that we should not heavily invest in this project because if it is possible
and it's going to be improved in a 10 year period or somewhere in that
timeframe, if we were to asphalt this or try to highly improve it, I don't
think would be a wise investment. That's it.
Pemrick: I would like to break in here and say I guess I would not be in
favor of motorized vehicles simply because we have to respect the homes
that do border along there or are close to it. You can handle a train
going through once a day or something because you know and you expect it. I
grew up with a train going through my back yard so it wasn't that big a
deal but when you've got sporatic traffic during the day or evening hours,
it can be a real nuisance.
.
Erhart: I'd also be in favor of it. I can't help but feel that it would
be a lot cheaper than putting a trail system in and trying to buy easements
from 5ndividual land owners. However, I would like to find out what the
intent is as far as the time frame for the light rail transit. Also, I
would caution motorized vehicles on it. I think all the other uses. It's
a really unique opportunity and I think we should go for it.
Schroers: Okay. I'm wondering if we could ask staff to check with the
rail authority and see what their intent is and also to check with the
cities of Eden Prairie and Chaska to see how they feel about the right-of-
way as a trail and if they intend to develop it and what timeframe they're
looking at for doing that. It would be nice to be able to work together
and if it appears that there's going to be adequate time and the cost is
reasonable and if we can develop that trail system and get 10 years or 15
years worth of use out of it, it would be real nice to pursue. But I do
think we should find out intentions of the rail authority and Eden Prairie
and Chaska.
Hoffman: At this point the rail authority's total involvement is a real
mystery. I have spoken to both representatives from Eden prairie ~nd
Chaska and admittedly they're very interested as well but we're all waiting
to meet with folks from Hennepin County Rail Authority to get some more
specifics. We can garner that information and then put it into a more
concise report. Bring that back to the commission in a fairly short time
so if this were to be considered as part of the 1992 Capital Improvement
.
SchroE:~r~,: Ok,"i>,. Well we spoke earlier Todd about the trail that is going
through the northwest corner of the park and I mentioned the type of
aggregate that's east of TH 101 on that trail. Did you have an opportunity
to check with Minnetonka or whoever that is over there to see what thBt
was?
Hoffman: They're using a crushed limestone. It's somewhat smaller than
the last stuff that the street superintendent over in Victoria ordered.
Was not exactly what he ordered. It was somewhat larger. Then they used
just regula)' crushed limestone in the city of Shorewood and it changes
back, but not limestone but Class V limestone in Shorewood and then to
switches back to the crushed limestone again up in the area which you'ie
speaking cf.
SchTo~r8: The crushed limestone makes just a wonderful trail for horses,
for bicycles and everything. You don't even need a mountain bike. You can
ride 0 reGular street bike on it. If there wouldn't be a major cost factor
in sa/ 3/8 minus versus crushed limestone, I would strongly promote the
crush~d limestone as a surface. It's a much more useable and enjoyable
surface to be on. It's kind of too bad that sections of that.trail that
exist nOl0 have the different material on it because it turns from a nice
bicycling trail that's just about like pavement into more of a mountain
bike (:r walking trail in ot.her sections. Consistency would make it nice s.
you ca~ start from one end and go to the other depending on your mode of
transportbtion. But anyway, since this was just a .discussion item and it
r~qUil'eS no formal action at this time so are there any issues that the
resident~ have of concern that we haven't addressed?
Resident: When you're talking about the multiple use, you're going to have
children walking on...And then the other thing,motorized vehicles gett.ing
on there like Lake Ann or... It's real easy for people to get through but
hard.. .so that would limit some of that. And then I think the policing

Schroers: What you need to do about that, if there are people hunting
illegally would be to notify the Conservation Officer.
Resident.:

Schroers: No, you just call the authorities. Okay.. Well, th~nk you very
much for coming tonight and 'showing your interest and I hope that we can
work together in getting that trail developed. At this point it's pretty
early to be overly optimistic but I think that we'll definitely be pursuing
it. So thanks very much and we're going to have to move on, or actually

Discussion - Chicago, Northwestern Railroad, Hennepin
County Rail Authority Right-of-Way
It has recently come to my attention that the above mentioned
railroad right-of-way is in the process of being cleared of ties
and tracks and will be available as a potential trail corridor.
Initially, I received a phone call from Ms. Susan Severson, a
resident, informing me of the activity taking place along the
railroad corridor. She subsequently mailed the attached letters
expressing her interest in a trail. A day later, I received a
phone call from Mr. Don Lawrence, who represents the Hennepin
County Rail Authority, regarding inquiries as to whether the City
of Chanhassen would be interested in participation in a trail
proj ect along the corridor. Mr. Lawrence confirmed that the right-
of-way was purchased by the Hennepin County Rail Authority for the
eventual routing of a light rail transit system. It is their hope
that in the interim, a trail system could be coordinated with the

Chanhassen City Council
Park and Recreation commision:
I recently noticed that the tracks on the Chicago/Northwestern
Railroad bordering our property in the southern portion of
Chanhassen (along Highway 212 at Highway 101) have been removed.
I made some telephone calls to determine the future of the
property and learned that the right-of-way has been purchased
by the Hennepin County Light Rail Authority for the future
development of a light rail system. The light rail system
is many years in the future and the cities that this right-
of-way goes thru may apply for a permit to develop a trail
system on it. The actual develoiment of the trail is at the
expense of the city.
I would like to strongly encourage the City of Chanhassen to
pursue developing a multi-use trail on this right-of-way.
I would also like to request that horse usage be included in the
deveiopment of this trail.
The southern portion of Chanhassen has no trail system at all.
We have many neighbors in the southern portion of Chanhassen
that would use this trail for horseback riding and hiking. I
believe it would allow us access to the Minnesota Valley state
trail system.
.
It would be a waste to lose this opportunity to develop a low-
cost trail here thAt could benefit many members of the community.
Most of the development work has already been done. This could
be the start of a more comprehensive trail system to be developed
in the future in Chanhassen.
I would like to volunteer my time to help pursue a trail on this
right-of-way. Please let me know if there is anything I can
do to make it a reality.

Todd Hofman:
The horse-back riders in our area are so enthusiastic about
. .
horse trails in the South side of Chanhassen that we have
already developed a short informal trail near this right-of-way
( with property owners permission). We are limited on each
end of it by the Railroad tracks.
It would not surprise me to find that these same people would
be willing to donate some time and muscle to help actually
construct a horse trail on this right-of-way. Some crushed
limestone or dirt and grass would do the job for the horses.
I would be happy to organize a work crew to help with the
project.
Thank you for your help!

Ryan Construction Proposal
Coordinator's Update
Park and Recreation
This item was scheduled for review by the Park and Recreation
Commission on August 27, 1991, but was subsequently pulled from
that evening's agenda at the request of the applicant. This
application presents a handfulbf <issues in regard to parks and
recreation which the Commission .<must...review. However, the size of
this site (93.7 acres - compar~le t.o the total area of Lake Ann
Park) and the eternal impact this development will have upon the
City demands our full and detailed consideration of each. The
magnitude of the recreational.and leisure needs resulting from the
development of this site cannot be underestimated and must be
accommodated. The thousands of employees working in the proposed
Chanhassen Business' Center will not only make use of on-si te
amenities; the trail loop, but will also have the opportunity to
participate in Park and Recreation programs offered by the
department. There is also a multiplying affect generated by the
families of those employees who wish to reside within the City. In
short, the affects ofth~s de"elopm~nt..arefar reaching in regard
to the provision of park, recreation and leisure opportunities. In
a conversation wi thMr. Kentcarlt:1l0I"li.Prc>perty..peyelo,pmEmt Manager
for Ryan Construction Company, he indicated that Ryan Construction
Company acknowledges this assessment. To temper his remarks;
however, their concern in.addressingttl~ provision of these
services is one of hundreds such concerns and in the case of the
availability of off-site recreatiopservices does not necessitate
their attention.
These concerns are the only responsibility of the Park and
Recreation Commission.
In an attempt to clarify each of the issues, I will address them
separately.

.
Park Fee and/or Dedication Requirements
As eluded to in my original report, the site plan does not call for
any park fee credit to be given, contrary to the request for such
by the applicant in their narrative document. Chanhassen City Code
states that land conveyed or dedicated to the city or the cash fees
in lieu of the dedication shall be in addition to and not in lieu
of open space requirements for planned unit developments (PUD).
Clearly, this PUD would not be viable without the applicant calling
for the preservation of the only mature stand of trees located on
the property, the creekbed, the flood plain and the other
environmentally sensitive areas within Outlot A. Many advantages
are bestowed upon developers under the umbrella of a PUD, in
return for these the city has a number of expectations, one of
which is the preservation of Outlot A (see attached justification
on rezoning to PUD, excerpt from Planning commission packet dated
September 4, 1991). Granting park fee credit for this preservation
would award the applicant the opportunity to "double-dip" benefits.
RECOMMENDATION
Again, it is recommended that the ci ty accept full park fees
($2,500 per acre) for the Chanhassen Business Center PUD.
Trail Fee and/or Construction Requirements
.
As a basis for conversation in the area of trails, it can be
assumed that all parties involved recognize the need to provide
some form of internal pedestrian trail/sidewalk system on a site of
this size. Ignoring or down playing the need is simply not in the
interest of the employees/"people" working there. In addition,
some configuration of a loop trail system will benefit the city at
large through its availability to neighboring residents. In the
event that a stronger case backing the construction of a trail is
necessary a never ending list of potential uses and there
corresponding benefits will be compiled. As Mr. Tim Erhart,
Planning Commissioner, stated at the September 4, 1991, Planning
Commission meeting, "I like the trail...I think it makes a lot of
sense...I wish we would have done that in the industrial park that
we are in (Chanhassen Lakes Business Park)... You see a lot of
joggers. To have a trail, off-street trail, would have been really
nice."
The applicant does have a concern in regard to the configuration of
the trail loop, however, as shown on the plan sheets. It is now
thought that there may be the potential need for railroad access
by a future tenant of the business center. It is their opinion, .
.
Park and Recreation Commission
September 18, 1991

with which staff concurs, that the alignment of the north half of
the trail loop would then be unacceptable. As an alternative, the
applicant has stated it would be their wish to omit the north half
of the loop and simply extend the trail westerly to a connection
point bisecting the future Bluff Creek Corridor Trail System. As
stated in my previous report, this concept is considered
unfavorable by this office and it is recommended that the loop
configuration remain intact. Again, at the appropriate time in the
future, a connecting link would be made to the turf trail along
Bluff Creek. In discussion with the applicant, the alternative of
constructing the trail/sidewalk along the internal road and in the
100 foot buffer zone to the south with a connection arch at the
west end was met with some favor.
In further reviewing this issue, I consulted the City Manager. It
was the recommendation of the Manager's Office to not only follow
through with the planning of a trail/sidewalk system, but to
incorporate its construction into the larger infrastructure package
as part of the tax increment financing (TIF) package being
developed for the site. As a result, the quality of the business
center is improved, trail fees remain a valid charge and the humane
elements of the development are addressed.
~ RECOMMENDATION
In addressing trail fees as part of the Chanhassen Business Center,
it is recommended that the City:
- accept full trail fees ($833.00 per acre);
- require a 20 foot wide trail easement within the 100 foot
buffer zone on the south edge of the development; along the
north side of the proposed cUI-de-sac:on the west and north
side of Lot 8*; and on the west side of Audubon Road from
the 100 foot buffer zone to a crossing point opposite of
Heron Drive to accommodate the construction of a bituminous
trail.
* Note:
The alignment of the trail along Lot 8 would provide a
more acceptable route for trail construction than the
depicted alternative of skirting the proposed holding
pond.

Justification for Rezonina to POD
Section 20-501. Intent
Planned unit development developments offer enhanced flexibility to
develop a site through the relaxation of most normal zoning
district standards. The use of the PUD zoning also allows for a
greater variety of uses, internal transfer of density, construction
phasing and a potential for lower development costs. In exchange
for this enhanced flexibility, the City has the expectation that
the development plan will result in a significantly higher quality
and more sensitive proposal than would have been the case with the
other, more standard zoning districts. It will be the applicant's
responsibility to demonstrate that the City's expectations are to
realized as evaluated against the following criteria:
Planned unit developments are to encourage the following:
1. Preservation of desirable site characteristics and open space
and protection of sensitive environmental features, including
steep slopes, mature trees, creeks, wetlands, lakes and scenic
views.
FINDING: In this proposed development the applicant intends .
to save the existing stand of mature trees along Bluff Creek,
located on Outlot A. The Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map
identifies the creek corridor as Park/Open Space.
2. More efficient and effective use of land, open space and
public facilities through mixing of land uses and assembly and
development of land in larger parcels.
FINDING: The subject property is triangular in shape, bounded
by the creek, railroad tracks and Audubon Road. The shape of
the property prohibits design flexibility that one could find
with a flat square piece of property. The advantage in the
PUD proposal. is that the city is gaining a totally planned
concept. If this were to develop separately as individual
parcels, many of these design considerations wouJ.d not. be
included. These design elements include an approved sign
package, uniform street and parking lot lighting, compatible
or cohesive architecture and building materials. . The
coordination ~f site development will also improve the
efficiency and cost effectiveness of public improvements. For
example, the project is large enough 'to help facilitate a
solution to providing sewer service to the new MUSA area.
Also, the development of, a single, comprehensive drainage
system will maximize the effectiveness' of nutrient removal
efforts while reducing the city's long term maintenance costs.

3. High quality design and design compatibility with surrounding
land uses, including both existing and planned. Site
planning, landscaping and building architecture should reflect
higher quality design than is found elsewhere in the
community.
4.
PINDING: The applicants are proposing to submit individual
building plans for each development lot. The city will
utilize its normal site plan review procedure for each. The
approved PUD documents will establish firm guidelines to
ensure that the site is developed in a consistent and well
planned manner. Higher quality development will result.
Sensitive development in transitional areas located between
different land uses and along significant corridors within the
city will be encouraged.
PINDING: This site is bounded on the east by Audubon Road.
The Comprehensive Land Use Map calls for a 50 foot buffer yard
for additional buffering for the subdivision to the east. In
addition, the Comprehensive Plan calls for a 100 foot buffer
yard along the southern property line. This area will
eventually be developed with single family homes consistent
with the Comprehensive Plan. Concept plans call for
establishing an acceptable landscape buffer in the appropriate
areas. Site topography and tree cover will also place much of
the site beyond the view of adjacent residential areas. In
addition, the location of the U. S. Weather Service site along
Audubon Road will improve buffering. Most of this site will
remain permanent open space. .
Development which is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan.
PINDING: The Comprehensive Land Use Map identifies the
subject area as the potential land use of Office/Industrial.
The Land Use Map also identifies a Park/Open Space corridor,
300 to 400 hundred feet in width, running the entire length of
the property. This area is located in proposed Outlot A area
on the site plan. The Comprehensive Plan also .identifies a
buffer strip 50 to 100 feet in width along Audubon Road and
along the southern side of the property line. The intent of
this buffer line is to help preserve and establish vegetation
to help mitigate the impacts of development to surrounding
properties. The proposal is fully consistent wi th the
Comprehensive Plan.
Parks and open space. The creation of public open space may
be required by the city. Such park and open space shall be
consistent with the Comprehensive Park Plan and overall trail
plan.
Ryan Construction

FINDING: The site plan shows a loop trail around the
perimeter of the site, terminating at the northern and
southern property line along Audubon Road. The applicants may
propose to develop only the south half of this loop, with a
connection then being made through the railroad tunnel and
onto the property to the north which is also controlled by
Ryan Construction. In addition, the Park/Open Space corridor
along Bluff Creek, including the mature stand of trees, will
be preserved. The Park and Recreation Commission will be
reviewing this proposal in September.
7. provision of housing affordable to all income groups if
appropriate with the PUD.
FINDING: This provision of the PUD district is not applicable
to this proposal.
S. Energy conservation through the use of more efficient building
designs and sightings and the clustering of buildings and land
uses.
.
FINDING: Ryan Construction intends to pursue the use of
railroad spur lines for Lots 2, 4, 6 and 7 during the .
preliminary design stage. The applicants are proposing energy
conservation for the buildings in two ways. First, earth
mounding will help shield the buildings from the seasonal.
weather extremes. Secondly, architectural treatment of the
building will attempt to capture. the most efficient and
effective design related to energy conservation.
The lighting fixtures selected for use in the parking lot
areas and on the public streets will be outfitted with an
energy saving type of lamp. Additionally, they will include
photo electric cells to turn them on/off automatically.
9. Use of traffic management and design techniques to reduce the
potential for traffic conflicts. Improvements to area roads
and intersections may be required as appropriate. .
FINDING: The main access to the site is off of Audubon Road.
Designated as a collector street by the City Comprehensive
Plan, it was upgraded last year. Traffic improvements such as
turn lanes that may be warranted to support the project will
be recommended as a condition of approval. This road isa
Carver County Collector. All access for the lots will be from
the proposed extension of Lake Drive West. The applicants are
requesting to have access onto Audubon from Lot 1. The
traffic study will also review this proposal.

COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: This property lies within the service area of
two community parks, Lake Ann and Lake Susan,
and two neiqhborhood parks, Sunset Ridqe and
Power Hill Park.
.
COMPREHENSIVE TRAIL PLAN: An off-street sidewalk currently exists
on the east side of Audubon Road, runninq
nearly the entire lenqth of this
property. The sidewalk is shown on the
enclosed diaqram. The comprehensive Plan
calls for this trail to continue south to
Lyman Boulevard and on to the city of
Ryan Construction/RLK Associates
August 27, 1991
Page 2
.
Chaska. Again, this sidewalk lies on th.
east side of AUdubon Road, making it
necessary to secure appropriate crossings
to service the subject property. The
second trail link identified in
relation to this property is a
segment of the nature trail planned
along Bluff Creek. This trail will
run north from the site on the east
edge of the Timberwood Subdivision
to the proposed school si te, and
south to LYman Boulevard and beyond.
The property allows access to the
south entrance of a dOuble-wide
concrete tunnel which bisects the
railroad tracks. Each individual
tunnel is large enough to permit
vehicle passage.
The two trailways associated with
the property are unique 'in
Character, were proposed for
different uses and are to be
constructed of different materials.
The nature trail is to be maintained
as a turf trail following existing
contours with the Off-street trails 4It
being constructed of concrete or a
bituminous material.
RECOMMENDATION
Park Dedication: In reviewing the applicant.s narrative document
for this proposal, it is their wish to dedicate Outlot A to the
city in lieu of park fees being charged. Outlot A; however, does
not meet the city's criteria of acceptable land for which park fee
credit can be given and thus no park credit is being recommended.
The people who will be employed in the business park and their
families will expect and deserve the provision of quality park
facilities, i.e. ballfields, playgrounds, tennis courts, etc.
These cannot be constructed within the confines of Outlot A. The
outlot is unique in nature and serves other purposes in relation to
this proposed business center. It will act as a ponding and storm
drainage and detention site for the development. The wetlands,
streambed and area within the setbacks of both are already
protected under current ordinances. Watershed restrictions further
protect this area ensuring that it remain in an unaltered
condition. The Commission may consider an alternative of accepting
7 to 9 acres of buildable land, the size of Lot 7, from the
applicant in lieu of park fees being charged. In the absence of
this type of arrangement, it is recommended that the city accept
full park fees ($2,SOO/acre) for this development.
Trail Dedication: As can be seen on sheet nos. 1 and 5 of the plan
packet attached, the applicant proposed a loop trail around the
perimeter of the site, terminating at AUdUbon Road at the north and
4It

south extremes of the property. Park and Recreation staff believes
this alignment would prove beneficial, allowing for "lunch hourn
walking/jogging to occur. This design would require the extension
of the trail along the west side of Audubon Trail the distances
necessary to reach appropriate crossing points, allowing connection
to the existing sidewalk. The applicant would be required to
construct this trailway of a bituminous or concrete material and
provide associated easements. Appropriate trail fee credit would
apply pending an agreement to construct a trail of this nature.
It came to my attention today, August 22, 1991, through discussions
with staff members and Mr. Kent Carlson, property development
manager for Ryan Construction Company, that the applicant may
propose the construction of the south half of this loop only, with
a connection then being made through the railroad tunnel and onto
the property to the north which is also controlled by Ryan
Construction Company. Mr. Carlson informed me that it is their
intent to bring a development proposal for this site to the city in
the near future.
As eluded to earlier; however, the two trail sections associated
with this site are separate in nature and are designated in this
manner in the Comprehensive Plan. It is staff's recommendation to
pursue construction of the loop trail. At the appropriate time in
the future, a connecting link would be made to the nature trail
along Bluff Creek. Upon review of the final site plan SUbmittal,
the appropriate trail fee credit would be calculated and submitted
for approval by the city Council. The Park and Recreation
commission will be kept abreast of activity in this regard.

1991 Report to City Council
As part of a special City Council meeting held on September 16,
1991, the City Manager asked that I prepare a comprehensive status
report for all parks and park improvement projects. A copy of that
report is attached. As this report detailed the activities which
resulted from the work of the Commission, I chose to highlight the
Commission and its members in a follow-up report to the City
Council (attached). In the event that I missed anything or if I
was not complimentary enough, I will accept recommendations for
alterations to the report.
The report will be included in the administrative section of an
upcoming City Council packet.

Status Report - 1991 Park Improvement Projects; A Look
Ahead to 1992
SUBJ:
The following provides a summary of progress on park improvement
projects in the City in 1991. All of these work functions are
currently in progress with the exception of the South Lotus Lake
Boat Access Project, which has been completed.
South Lotus Lake Park
.
Grading, drainage and landscaping proj ect RA-278, at the South
Lotus Lake Park Boat Access has been completed. An initial walk
through of the construction site was held on Thursday, September 5,
1991. Work items which were found to be substandard were minor and
include performing a final clean out of sediment accumulated in a
catch basin, providing a small quantity of additional rip rap and
rearranging two small areas of the rip rap which had been
installed, remounting one lag screw in the upper ponding area silt
barrier and replacing a small quantity of sod. These items were
subsequently corrected and the jOb was accepted. Of primary
interest, however, is did the project accomplish its purpose of
improving storm water detention and discharge? As a means of
answering this question, I visited the site during the last two
heavy precipitation periods the city has received. I am pleased to
report that the improved system operated flawlessly. In addition,
grading and landscaping improvements carried out by both the
contractor and the park maintenance/public works department have
significantly improved the appearance and maintainability of the
park. Neighboring residents were involved in coordinating the
grading work to the east of the access road and to my knowledge
approved of the outcome.
City Center Park
This multi-faceted improvement project has progressed very .
smoothly. Work on the south playground and the tennis courts has
.
status Report
September 12, 1991
Page 2
been completed. The change in appearance and the increased
playability of both these areas is dramatic. The contractor was
called back to remedy a substandard drainage condition in the
resilient surfaced south play area. They completed the
installation of additional drain tile the next day. In observation
of this area during the most recent heavy rain, the drainage system
now performs correctly.
.
Portions of the work associated with the north playground have been
completed. Delivery of the handicapped accessible play equipment
main structure is being taken on Monday, September 16, 1991. This
$20,000.00 piece of play apparatus, purchased with CDBG funds, will
be installed by the Park Maintenance Department. Contracting for
installation for this equipment was favored in light of work
functions already scheduled with the maintenance crews, but was not
possible due to wage stipulations attached to the CDBG grant. The
installation is complex involving the pouring of a series of
concrete pads, which will accept the application of resilient pads
acting as "landing" zones, assembly of the multi-decked/ramped
structure and trucking and installation of resilient pea gravel.
It is anticipated that this work will be completed by mid October
wi th a grand opening being planned thereafter. A site plan drawing
of the new play structure is attached.
Attachment #1.
Lake Ann Park
.
Detailed design development of the Lake Ann Park Picnic/Recreation
Shelter is in its final stages. Plans and specifications will be
presented to the City Council for review and to receive approval on
Monday, September 23, 1991. As it is the goal to complete
construction of the shelter by spring of 1992, I would like to
present the attached schedule (Attachment #2) to the City Council
at their special meeting this Monday, September 16, 1991, for a
grant of approval-. This schedule has been developed to allow
necessary processes to occur in a timely fashion enabling the
shelter to be opened in conjunction with the opening of the beach.
The City Council will note that the utilities schedule is straight
forward and calls for "pipes" and "wires" to be in the ground this
year. Restoration of disturbed areas would occur next spring. The
shelter schedule necessitates that advertisement for bids be
published in the Villager on September 19 and the construction
bulletin on September 20. Therefore, and as previously mentioned,
I will be looking to the City Council for their approval in this
regard on Monday, the 16th. Upon receipt and review by the City
Council members of the plans and specifications, comments will be
taken and questions answered on Monday, September 23, 1991. If at
that time, the city Council wishes to make any changes or
status Report .
September 12, 1991 '
Page 3
al ternations in relation to the shelter, an addendum would be
prepared and published.
As a prelude to the formal presentation which. will be made on
September 23rd, I would like to convey that the design development
stage of planning for the shelter has progressed very smoothly,
elements of construction methods, materials, layout, furnishings,
function, aesthetics, design, etc. have been considered. The
result of these efforts, coupled with the upcoming selection of a
competent contractor, assures that the "consumers" (residents)
making use of this building and its services will find it
functional.
Note:
The Shelter location has been staked allowing inspection
of the area to occur.
Lake Susan Park
Construction of the second phase of improvements, i.e. boat access,
trail connection, archery range, at Lake Susan Park is underway.
Delivery of the accessible fishing pier acquired through a CDBG
grant is being accepted on September 30, 1991. Installation of the
pier will most likely take place in the spring of 1992. with the .
completion of the first phase of improvements and the expansion of
the play equipment, the park was well received this year.
Herman Field Park
Construction at Herman Field Park commenced the week of August 12,
1991, in the absence of this week's rain, the project could have
been completed by the 20th of September. Today's best estimate is
that work will be completed by the end of the month. This project
was initiated as a grading, surfacing and paving project to
accomplish two main objectives; provide an access to the park and
prepare the site to accept recreational facilities. As you are
aware, this ini~ial work is the cumulation of a 13 year, on and off
process of planning for the development of this 13 acre
neighborhood park. Upon final restoration and seeding of the park
it will be allowed to establish growth this fall and next spring
prior to the installation of proposed 1992 facilities. These
include a play area, trails, a 160 foot super deck boardwalk
traversing the waterway separating the two "halves" of the park and
picnic tables.
Curry Farms Park
The 1991 Park Acquisition and Development CIP. contained $10,000 to
carry out improvements at Curry Farms neighborhood park. Work on
these improvements, which include a play area expansion .
installation of a ballfield with backstop and aggregate infield and
.
.
.
status Report
September 12, 1991
Page 4
the construction of a bituminous walkway has been initiated. The
unfavorable soils in the park, coupled with its low elevation, have
necessitated increased preparation and compacting time during
construction. Work which remains to be completed includes the
application of the bituminous trail surface, installation of the
backstop and bases and restoration. The only remaining facility
called out in the Master Park for Curry Farms Park is a tennis
court. It will be necessary at the time when construction of the
court is recommended, to carry out an extensive soil study. We
need to recognize that due to the condition of soils, construction
may not be feasible or at a minimum construction costs will rise
due to the need for corrective measures.
Sunset Ridge Park
The developer's surveyor was called back to stake the outlying
property boundary of the park. Park maintenance crews located the
property corners of all lots abutting the park property to
accurately define construction limits. Equipment was moved to the
site on August 19, 1991, and an on-site evaluation of the park's
Master Plan was conducted with Dale Gregory, Park Foreman, and
Mark Koegler of VanDoren Hazard Stallings. This inspection
revealed that modifications to the Master Plan are necessary to
best utilize the site. A revised Master Plan will be prepared upon
final determination of facility locations. Grading and site
preparation will continue for another week or two depending upon
favorable weather conditions, with site restoration and seeding to
follow. Initial facilities include a ballfield/soccer field, sand
volleyball court and a play area. Ballfield construction is being
coordinated with grading work. The other facilities will either be
installed late this fall or in the spring.
To allow everyone to "keep in touch" with all of the city's parks,
I am providing the following one line status reports. Only parks
not previously discussed are listed.
Bandimere community Park
Land is continuing to be rented for agricultural purposes; a
potential park Master Plan was completed in 1989; to be developed
as a youth athletic field complex; $300,000 to $500,000 needed to
develop; when is the time for a referendum?

SUBJ: 1991 Report to the City Council
.
In that a complete report of park projects under construction and
status reports for all other parks was presented to the city
Council on Monday, September 16, 1991, I will not delve further
into that area in this report. However, I would like to touch upon
the work which the Park and Recreation Commission has completed
over the past year in seeing that the city's parks and trails
continue to develop properly.
As you know, the Park and Recreation Commission currently consists
of seven members:
Larry Schroers, Chairman
Jim Andrews, Vice-Chair
Dave Koubsky
Jan Lash
Curt Robinson
Wendy Pemrick
Dawne Erhart
These members represent nineteen years of combined service on the
Park and Recreation Commission. In reporting to and working with
this group over the past year, I can assure you that they are well
prepared to represent issues within the city in the areas of parks,
trails, recreation and leisure opportunities. The Commission
members reside in many areas within the community and bring with
them to the Commission meetings their diverse business knowledge
and personal experiences.
The Commission adopted the proposed 1992 Park Acquisition and
Development Capital Improvement Program (CIP) on August 27, 1991,
totalling $150,000. You will find the improvements called for in
. this CIP to be diverse and far reaching in their benefit. I will
Park and Recreation Commission
September 20, 1991
Page 2
be presenting this proposed ClP to the City Council for approval as
part of the 1992 Budget process.
I believe I speak for all the Commission in saying that they are
looking forward to continuing their service to the City of
Chanhassen as Park and Recreation Commissioners.

Update Park and Recreation Five Year Improvement Program;
Work Session
Please find attached worksheets for the Commission to use in
updating the Five Year Capital Improvement Program (CIP). The last
time the department's five year C~!>>was updated was in December of
1990. At that time , it covered tl'letiscal years 1988 through 1992.
In that we have just completed tpeproposed 1992 Park Acquisition
and Development CIP, those figur~s are reflected on the worksheets.
The Commission will also find attached a copy of the December 1990,
revisions which identifies $53~, 000 wOrth of improvements under the
year 1992+. Obviously, this is exaggerated; however,
individual items listed for/all will help in guiding the
revision of the five year CIJ:>~ I would discussion would
proceed along the same li~es as in of the annual
CIP, with a much broader $cope.

SUBJ: 1991 Gate Attendant Program Report
.
with the end of the busy summer season, it is time to reflect on
the events which took place. The annual gate attendant report is
used to gather information about South Lotus Lake boat access, gate
attendants total hours and wages; and information about annual
sales in terms of the number of daily and seasonal passes sold, and
the total revenue from these sales.
The summer of 1991 saw an 11.2% increase in watercraft population
from the year before. with the increased activity it is very
important to continue to look for new ways to educate the gate
attendants and the public about Eurasian Water Milfoil. During the
gate attendant meeting in May, specific milfoil information was
distributed to the gate attendants to become familiar with what the
mil foil plant looks like and what to do if mil foil is discovered.
A new addition to the gate attendant meeting was having the
president of the Lotus Lake Homeowners Association, Steve Decatur,
speak to the gate attendants about specific information regarding
Lotus Lake and the milfoil problem associated with the lake.
Steve's information was very helpful in terms of relating the gate
attendants responsibilities and duties into the overall goal of
Chanhassen which is to educate and inform the public about Eurasian
Water Milfoil. Next year the gate attendants will continue to pass
out literature about milfoil and the Lotus Lake boat rules and
regulations. Addi ti,onal information will be sought to increase the
knowledge and understanding of the gate attendants regarding
Eurasian Water Milfoil.
.
Part of the duties and responsibilities of the gate attendants is
to track people using the south Lotus boat access and to record
types of watercraft. The information from the summer of 1991 are
listed on the following page.

The revenue and the total number of passes sold at the Lake Ann
Gate House increased slightly over the 1990 amount. The revenue
from the passes are directly associated with the activities at Lake
Ann Park in terms of picnics, spectators from league softball and
soccer games, softball tournaments and beach activities. with the
addition of the new Lake Ann picnic shelter and an increase in
other adult and youth activities, the revenue totals will increase
next year. The breakdown of the numper of passes sold and revenue
totals are listed below:
Daily Passes 3418 x $2.00 = $6,836.00
Seasonal (resident) 774 x 5.00 = 3,870.00
Seasonal (non-resident) 215 x 10.00 = 2,150.00
TOTAL 4407 passes = $12,856.00
70 Softball teams x $75.00 per team 5,250.00
GRAND TOTAL FOR 1991 $18,106.00
1990 Totals 4092 passes = $12,466.00
65 Softball teams x $75.00 per team $ 4,875.00
GRAND TOTAL FOR 1990 $17,341.00
The gate attendants total hours and wages for Lake Ann and the
South Lotus Boat Access:
Sam Auseth 60.5 hrs. x $5.00 = $ 302.50
Roger Erny 286 hrs. x 4.50 = 1,287.00
Bart Genovese 22 hrs. x 4.50 = 99.00
Lori Haak 254 hrs. x 5.00 = 1,270.00
Charlie Hansen 176.5 hrs. x 4.50 = 794.25
Karl Kotsonas 148.5 hrs. x 4.50 = . 668.25

obtained to use the property providing that the City of Chanhassen
in return accepts all responsibility in the event something should
happen associated with Oktoberfest.
The electrical needs of each group have been looked at and a plan
has been developed to use the receptacles along the basement of

Central Park Master Plan
The Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) is investigating the
possibility of establishing a central park in the City of
Chanhassen. As can be seen from the attached information, this
park would encompass City Hall with the main emphasis being
directed to the south of the building. This area currently
contains a vacant lot and a professional building (the old bank) .
In the event that the HRA moves forward with plans for Central
Park, City Center Park will be affected. As such, the City Manager
has asked for input from the Park and Recreation Commission.
This proposal represents an exciting opportunity for the community;
however, its development would result in the loss of one of three
ball fields currently existing at City Center Park. All parties
involved in the planning for Central Park recognize the importance
of City Center Park to the community, and the Chanhassen Athletic
Association in particular. To continue to provide for the
increasing demand for youth recreational sports and activities,
City Center Park would be redeveloped in conjunction with Central
Park using the new park master plan recently approved by the Park
and Recreation Commission as a guide.
The only action necessary on this item would be to pass along a
motion signaling the Commission's position on this proposal to the
HRA.

As you recall, the City Council last reviewed this item on April 22
and May 20, 1991. The City COuncil authorized staff to move
forward with plans to construct 'the shelter and related utilities
on May 20. Please find attached the resulting plans and
specifications for the construction of the shelter and the .
installation of utilities. These plans have been reviewed by the
City's Building Inspection D~vision and their findings have been
incorporated in the project < (see attached letter from Inspector
Nelson). Plans will also be submitted to the State Department of
Health and to the State Electrical and Plumbing Inspectors. These
items are being presented together; however to afford the.City the
best opportuni ty for competi ti ve bids;: the proj ects have been
designed separately and it is recommendeti" that they be advertised
as such. .<

As can be seen, detailed. and thorough study has been given to the
design and function of the shelter building and associated
utilities. You are aware of this as~,:eEJuJ..~iof.i your personal

recommended that the award of the contracts for both the shelter
and utilities be made at the. October 14, 1991, City Council
meeting. Bid openings are scheduled for the utilities on October
8, 1991, at 9:00 a.m. and on October 14, 1991, at 9:00 a.m. for the
shelter. A bid tabulation for the utilities will be included in
the October 14 ci ty Council packet; however, the shel ter bid
tabulation cannot be presented until the evening of the 14th for
review. I would be happy to phone or fax bid results for the
shelter to members of the City Council on the afternoon of the 14th
for review prior to that meeting. By establishing these project
schedules, the city avails itself of two additional weeks of
favorable construction weather.
Recommendation
Finding the plans and specifications for both the construction of
the Lake Ann Park Picnic/Recreation Shelter and the installation of
utilities complete and satisfactory, it is recommended that they be
approved and authorization for advertisement for bids be given.
