6 � APPLICANT: City of Chanhassen
Attn: Todd Gerhardt, City Manager
7700 Market Boulevard, P.O. Box 147
Chanhassen, MN 55317
LOCATION: Bluff Creek — a public water between properties 8900 and 8950 Audubon Road
(PIDs 25- 8250010 and 25- 8090020) in Carver County, Minnesota.
PRESENT ZONING: Rural Residential
2020 LAND USE PLAN: Rural Residential
LEVEL OF CITY DISCRETION IN DECISION - MAKING: The City has limited discretion
in approving or denying wetland alteration permits, based on whether or not the proposal meets
the wetland alteration permit standards outlined in the Zoning Ordinance. If the City finds that
all the applicable wetland alteration permit standards are met, the permit must be approved. This
is a quasi-judicial decision.
Notice of this public hearing has been mailed to all property owners within 500 feet.
PROPOSAL SUMMARY AND BACKGROUND
The City of Chanhassen is proposing to reconstruct Audubon Road from Lyman Boulevard to
Lake Drive West. The project will involve upgrading a rural road section to an urban road
section. This will incorporate the construction of dedicated turn lanes, the installation of a storm
sewer conveyance system, the construction of a mixed -use recreational trail, and other
Audubon Wetland Alteration Permit 2010 -07
May 18, 2010

appurtenant facilities. This project is needed to meet the existing and anticipated average daily
trips generated on this road.
In order to accommodate the trail extension, 560 square feet of wetland will be permanently
impacted when the box culvert which conveys Bluff Creek is extended eight feet westward.
Compensatory mitigation for the impacted wetlands will be accomplished through the
withdrawal of wetland credits from the Minnesota Wetland Bank Account #127 owned by the
City of Chanhassen. Because the trail is not considered a necessary safety upgrade for the road,
it is not eligible for the BWSR Road Replacement program.
The Joint Notification Application (see attachment 4) was submitted to the Carver County Soil
and Water Conservation District (SWCD), the Minnesota Board of Soil and Water Resources
(BWSR), the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) and the United States
Department of the Army, Corps of Engineers for review and comment on April 22, 2010 as
required by state and federal law. The public comment period ends on May 17, 2010. As of the
time of this report, no comments had been received from the reviewing agencies. Any comments
received will be provided to the Planning Commission in a timely manner.
The City has taken efforts to minimize the proposed wetland impacts. These modifications
included narrowing the boulevard to seven feet, shortening the culvert extension by four feet, and
maintaining 3:1 slopes from the shoulder to the wetland. Consideration was also given to using
retaining walls or further narrowing the boulevard. In both cases it was found to be impractical
to do so. Upon review of these plan revisions, it has been determined that impacts have been
minimized to the greatest extent practicable.
The replacement wetland must be located within the same watershed and replace similar
functions and values. If it does not, an increased mitigation ratio may be required. The wetland
bank is of the same wetland type and is located within the City of Chanhassen. Therefore the
replacement only requires a 2:1 ratio.
APPLICABLE REGUATIONS
The Wetland Protection Ordinance requires that development must first try to avoid any wetland
impacts. In it is determined that avoidance is not a reasonably attainable option, then every
reasonable effort must be made to minimize these impacts to the greatest extent practicable. Any
unavoidable impacts must be mitigated for at a ratio consistent with the Minnesota Wetland
Conservation Act: in this instance that ratio is 2:1.
ANALYSIS
It has been determined that there is no way to construct the mixed -use recreational trail along the
west side of Audubon Road without extending the existing box culvert to Bluff Creek. It is this
extension that results in the wetland impact. City staff has shortened the extension as much as
possible to minimize impact to the wetland as required by ordinance. These minimization
techniques included:
Audubon Wetland Alteration Permit 2010 -07
May 18, 2010
Page 3 of 4
• Using four -foot box culvert pieces rather than six -foot pieces.
• Narrowing the boulevard from eight (8) feet to seven (7) feet.
• Maintaining a 3:1 slope down to the wetland.
The mitigation will occur at a 2:1 ratio. The compensatory mitigation involves the withdrawal of
0.0257 acres of wetland credit from Account #127 in Carver County. This account is located within
the City of Chanhassen and is managed by the City of Chanhassen.
FINDINGS
The Technical Evaluation Panel has met and reviewed the proposed project and found the following
to be true:
1. The impacts associated with this project have been avoided and minimized to the greatest extent
practicable.
2. The road reconstruction portion of the project is necessary to meet State design and safety
guidelines.
3. The proposed mitigation is appropriately sized, situated and is of the same wetland type.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission adopt the following motion:
"The Planning Commission recommends the Chanhassen City Council approves Wetland
Alteration Permit #2010 -07 for the reconstruction of Audubon Road and appurtenant facilities with
the following conditions:
1. The applicant shall submit the Application for Withdrawal of Wetland Credits from the
Minnesota Wetland Bank to the Board of Water and Soil Resources Wetland Bank
Administrator, and no impacts to wetland shall occur prior to the local authorities, the
account holder and the user of the credits having received a letter of approval from the
Wetland Bank Administrator stating that these credits have been debited.
2. A letter of permission (LOP) or other approval from the United States Army Corps of
Engineers shall be received prior to any impacts to this wetland.
3. A DNR Waters permit shall be received from the Minnesota Department of Natural
Resources prior to any work within the wetland or Bluff Creek.
4. Per DNR rules, no activity affecting the bed of Bluff Creek may occur between April 1 and
June 30 to minimize the probability of impacts to fish spawning and migration.

Summary and description of proposed project (attach additional sheets as necessarv):
The City of Chanhassen, as part of their on -going infrastructure maintenance and replacement program,
will be reconstructing Audubon Road from Lake Drive West to Lyman Blvd. As part of this project,
dedicated turn lanes and a multiple use recreational path will be added. In order to accommodate these
additions and maintain a safe clear zone, a total of eight feet needs to be added to the west end of the
existing box culvert which conveys Bluff Creek under Audubon Road. This will result in 560 square feet
of impact to a Type 3 wetland. The City of Chanhassen proposes to mitigate for these losses at a 2 :1 ratio
by withdrawing 1120 square feet of Type 3 wetland credits from wetland bank account 127 owned and
managed by the City of Chanhassen.

application in writing. Any interested party is invited to attend the meeting.
• Staff prepares a report on the subject application that includes all pertinent information and a recommendation.
These reports are available by request. At the Planning Commission meeting, staff will give a verbal overview of
the report and a recommendation. The item will be opened for the public to speak about the proposal as a part of
the hearing process. The Commission will close the public hearing and discuss the item and make a
recommendation to the City Council. The City Council may reverse, affirm or modify wholly or partly the Planning
Commission's recommendation. Rezonings, land use and code amendments take a simple majority vote of the
City Council except rezonings and land use amendments from residential to commercial /industrial.
• Minnesota State Statute 519.99 requires all applications to be processed within 60 days unless the applicant
waives this standard. Some applications due to their complexity may take several months to complete. Any
