5 SUB 8800 Powers Blvd. Powers Circle November 6, 2001 Page 2 PROPOSAL/SUMMARY The applicant is requesting a land use plan amendment from Residential Large Lot to Residential Low Density and rezoning of Lot 2, Block 1, Hillside Oaks, from Agricultural Estate, A-2, to - Single Family Residential, RSF, to permit the subdivision of Lot 2, Block 1, Hillside Oaks, with a variance to permit a private street into 6 lots for a development to be known as Powers Circle. As part of the 1980 Chanhassen Comprehensive Plan, this parcel as well as the rest of Hillside Oaks subdivision was guided for Residential Low Density. After Hillside Oaks final plat was approved and in exchange for MUSA expansion elsewhere, this property was reguided for estate type development. However, as part of the original plat, it was envisioned that when urban services became available, this property would redevelop, but with larger lots. This property and the lot to the north are separate from the balance of the Hillside Oaks development and are served via a shared driveway off Powers Boulevard. LOw Density Residential Development in the Lake Susan Hills PUD surrounds these properties on three sides. As part of the upgrade of Powers Boulevard, sewer and water services were extended down to Lyman Boulevard to serve abutting parcels. Redevelopment of the properties would assist in paying for these public improvements. 'Redevelopment of these parcels would use existing public facilities, rather than. requiring the extension of additional trunk sewer and water lines. Powers Boulevard is a collector roadway and will continue to carry high volumes of traffic. The proposed development proposes only One lot for redevelopment, Lot 2. Of the two lots, this lot represents 59.9% of the land area of the lots. However, this lot represents only 50 percent of the property ownership. If this development is approved, then LOt 1 would be surrounded on four sides by urban density development and inevitably be forced to redevelop. The proposed subdivision minimally meets ordinance requirements and is, at best, a marginal development proposal. The three lots abutting Powers Boulevard are much too small considering that Powers Boulevard is a collector roadway and will carry high traffic volumes in the future. The site grading significantly impacts that natural character of the site, and even if approved, would require significant changes. The two lots on the west side of the development would be conducive to tuck-under type units, ones that are not well received in the existing real estate market. Drainage ravines are located on the west and southwest comer of the propertY and could significantly impact proposed Lot 4. The comprehensive plan policies state: Powers Circle November 6, 2001 Page 3 Encourage low density residential development in appropriate areas of the community that reinforces the character and integrity of existing single family neighborhoods while promoting the establishment of new neighborhoods of similar quality. By changing only one lot, the proposed development would change the character of the large lot development. New residential development shall be discouraged from encroaching upon vital natural resources or physical features that perform essential protection functions in their natural state. The proposed development would encroach into a significant drainage way that covers the southwest comer of the development. The City of Chanhassen is committed to providing a variety of housing styles with housing available for people of all income levels. The City of Chanhassen supports a balanced housing supply including the provision of estate type homes. Staff is recommending denial of the Land Use Map Amendment, rezoning and preliminary plat due to inconsistency with the comprehensive plan. BACKGROUND February 1972. The property was zoned R-lA,Agricultural Residence District as part of the original city zoning. July 1980. The property was granted preliminary approval for a Planned Residential development as part of the preliminary development plan for Lake Susan West P.R.D. Since a final plat was never filed on the project, the approved rezoning was never filed or published. May 7, 1984. Final plat approved for Hillside Oaks Subdivision (84-2 Subdivision). September 7, 1984. The City approves a land use map amendment from Residential Low Density to Agricultural and deletes the property from the MUSA in exchange for 22 acres of industrial land (McGlynns) and 7.3 acres of residential land northeast of Lake Minnewashta. February 1987. Property rezoned to A-2, Agricultural Estate District as part of comprehensive rezoning of the city. February 199t. Property brought back into the Metropolitan Urban Service Area (MUSA) and guided for Residential Large Lot. Powers Circle November 6, 2001 Page 4 Summer, 1997. Property owners for Lots land 2 brought in preliminary plat for Lots 1 and 2, Block 1, Hillside Oaks including a land use map amendment and rezoning to single family residential. The property owner for Lot 1 decided not to go forward with the project and the application was withdrawn. On February 23, 1998, the City Council: · denied a request for a Land Use Map Amendment from Residential - Large Lot to Residential Low Density for Lot 2, Block 1, Hillside Oaks. denied a request for rezoning from A-2, Agricultural Estate District, to RSF, Single Family Residential, for Lot 2, Block 1, Hillside Oaks, due to inconsistency with the comprehensive plan. · denied a preliminary plat of Subdivision 97-12 creating six lots for the Powers Circle Addition subject to not complying with the land use designation and zoning requirements. APPLICABLE REGULATIONS Chapter 18, Subdivisions Sections 20-41 through 20-45, Amendments Section 20-571 through 20-576 Agricultural Estate district regulations Section 20-611 through 20-616, RSF district regulations S ecti on 20-1400 through 20-1407, B luff Protecti on SUBDIVISION REVIEW GRADING Approximately two-thirds of the site is proposed to be graded for the house pads and street layout. The existing topography contains a very steep, partially wooded slope along the westerly portion of the site. The westerly portion of the site contains a variety of trees, shrubs and conifers. To preserve this sensitive area, staff is proposing that a conservation easement be dedicated over the westerly portion of the plat. In addition, two drainage ravines also intersect the parcel on this west slope. While previous upstream development has decreased the amount of runoff that flows through the ravines, they still act as a conduit to neighborhood drainage and needs to be preserved. As such, staff is recommending that public drainage and utility easements be dedicated over those parts of the ravines in Lots 4 and 5. Additionally, staff is recommending that the house pad for Lot 4 be moved closer to the front of the lot. This will minimize the amount of grading and tree removal on Lot 4. Likewise, Lot 6 would benefit from the house pad being moved closer to the street. This lot is proposed to be "custom graded". The proposed Powers Circle November 6, 2001 Page 5 grading limits shown on the grading plan would permit grading from lot line to lot line and essentially alter the entire slope. Due to the steep slope, Lot 6 is conducive to a tuck-under type home style, which would minimize the lot grading. A detailed grading, drainage, tree removal and erosion control plan will be required at the time of building permit application for staff review and approval in an effort to minimize tree loss and reduce grading impacts to the lot. The front and rear house pad elevations for Lot 6 should be shown on the grading plan as well. It appears that fill material will need to be imported to construct the lots and streets. The applicant and/or contractor must supply the City Engineer with a haul route for review and approval prior to grading activities commencing. This development is adjacent to Powers Boulevard (County Road 17), which is listed as a collector street in the City's Comprehensive Land Use Plan. According to City Code, the development will require screening of the adjacent lots from Powers Boulevard. Given the drainage characteristics and topographic features of the site, landscaping and separated berms are recommended along Powers Boulevard. The separated berms will provide openings for the runoff to drain out to Powers Boulevard as it does today. A retaining wall is proposed along the north side of Powers Circle to reduce the grading limits. The retaining wall is shown within the proposed right-of-way. Normally, retaining walls are not permitted within the City's right-of-way. To that extent, staff is recommending that the applicant revise the proposed street grades in order to minimize the use and height of the retaining wall. An encroachment agreement will be necessary for the construction of said retaining wall. An existing driveway that serves the parcel to the north may be impacted by this retaining wall as well and should be furthered addressed prior to final plat consideration. The City has planted a number of boulevard trees along Powers Boulevard that are nOt shown on the plans. In addition, there are a number of conifer trees on the site that are not shown on the plans as well. These trees need to be shown on the plans to determine what, if any, impact the trees will sustain. DRAINAGE The site drains from west to east onto Powers Boulevard where a storm drainage system collects stormwater runoff and carries it to a stormwater quality pond for pretreatment prior to discharging into a downstream wetland. The storm sewer improvements were constructed under the City/County Powers Boulevard Project. The parcel was not assessed for any storm drainage improvements and therefore will be responsible for surface water management fees. The plans propose two catch basins to convey stormwater runoff from Powers Circle into the existing drainage system in Powers Boulevard. Detailed storm sewer plans and specifications in accordance with the City's latest edition of Standard Specifications & Detail Plates will be Powers Circle November 6, 2001 Page 6 required for review and approval at time of final plat consideration. In addition, storm drainage calculations for a 10-year and 100-year, 24-hour storm event shall be submitted to the City Engineer for review and approval along with a drainage area map. EROSION CONTROL Erosion control measures and site restoration shall be developed in accordance with the City's Best Management Practice Handbook (BMPH). Silt fence is shown along the south and east property lines where stormwater and sediment can run off the site. A rock construction entrance must be shown at the proposed street access off of Powers Boulevard. In addition, tree preservation fencing needs to be added around any and all trees to be saved. UTILITIES There is an existing home on the site which utilizes a well and septic system. The plans propose to abandon the existing well. However, there was no notation with regard to the septic system. Staff assumes that the septic system site will be abandoned as well once City sewer and water becomes available. In the meantime, the existing septic site will need to be protected during the construction phase. The site has not been previously assessed for utilities. As such, the site will be. subject to one sanitary sewer and water connection charge for the installation of the existing stubs to the site. The 2001 connection charges for both sanitary sewer and water are $4,144. The property is also subject to sanitary sewer and water hook-up charges for all six- lots. The 2001 trunk utility hook- up charges are $1,322 per unit for sanitary sewer and $1,723 per unit for water. The 2001 SAC charge is $1,225 per unit. These charges are collected prior to each building permit issuance. In conjunction with the Powers Boulevard project municipal sewer and water service was extended to serve this parcel and the one to the north. An 8-inch sewer line has been extended out along the northerly lot line of the site from Powers Boulevard. The plans propose on extending the sanitary line into the site and then going south to serve the lots. A 6-inch watermain is also proposed to be extended into the site along Powers Circle and then along the private street and terminating. Staff is recommending that both a sanitary sewer and water line be stubbed off of the cul-de-sac to serve the property to the north. Due to the low floor elevation of the proposed lots, in-home pressure reducing valves will be required on all lots with a lowest floor elevation of 930 or less. Utilities along the private street will also need to have a drainage and utility easement dedicated over them. The minimum width will be 30 feet depending on the utility depth. Upon installation of these utilities, the house to the north will be within 150 feet of the sanitary sewer. As per City Code Section 19-41 (a), this house will then be required to connect to the sanitary sewer system within twelve months of the sewer becoming available. I Powers Circle November 6, 2001 Page 7 Detailed utility construction plans and specifications in accordance with the City's latest edition of Standard Specifications and Detail Plates will be required for review and approval by the City Council at time of final plat consideration. Since the utilities and part of the street improvements will become owned and maintained by the City, the applicant shall enter into a development contract with the City and provide financial security in the form of a letter of credit or cash escrow to guarantee construction of the public improvements. STREETS Access to the site is proposed by both a public street (Powers Circle) and a private street to serve up to four of the lots (2, 3, 4 and 5). Based on the surrounding parcels, there appears to be no need to extend a public street to the south. The adjacent parcel has access from Oakside Circle immediately south of the development. The parcel to the north will have access from Powers Circle. Since this parcel is zoned A-2, the cul-de-sac must be shifted to the east to maintain a 50 foot setback to the garage. The public street width and right-of-way for Powers Circle per City ordinance shall be 31 feet back-to-back within a 60-foot wide right-of-way. The plans propose a 34-foot wide face-to-face street within a 60-foot wide right-of-way. Therefore, the street width should be reduced to 31 feet back-to-back. The private street must be paved to a minimum width of 20-feet and built to a 7-ton design. A turnaround area, acceptable to the City's Fire Marshal, must be provided at the southerly end of the private street. The private street must be located within a 30-foot wide private easement and dedicated to the benefiting property owners. Access to the site from Powers Boulevard does have a right turn lane provided. Therefore, no additional turn lanes wilt be necessary. The existing driveway access from Powers Boulevard currently serves two homesteads (Rossavik) and the parcel to the north. In conjunction with the proposed street improvements, the driveway for the parcel to the north will need to be modified to adapt to the new street grade. As a result of this project, both homes will be required to change addresses to correspond to the new street name. In addition, a fire hydrant and street light pole will need to be relocated. The developer will be responsible for the relocation of these utility improvements. LANDSCAPING/TREE PRESERVATION Tree canopy coverage and preservation calculations for the Creekwood development are as follows: Total upland area (including outlots) Total canopy area (excluding wetlands) Baseline canopy coverage Minimum canopy coverage allowed 3.7 ac or 162,205 SF .65 ac or 28,314 SF 18% 25 % or .93 ac. Powers Circle November 6, 2001 Page 8 Developer does not meet minimum canopy coverage allowed, therefore the difference is multiplied by 1.2 to calculate the required replacement plantings. : Difference in canopy coverage Multiplier Total replacement Total number of trees to be planted 21,780 SF 1.2 26,136 SF 24 trees Buffer yard plantings are required along Powers Boulevard as follows: Required Proposed East property line - 6 overstory 0 overstory bufferyard B 13 understory 0 understory 18 shrubs 0 shrubs A landscape plan must be submitted to the city for approval. Included in the plan shall be location, species and size of replacement and buffer yard plantings. All plants must meet minimum size requirements. WETLANDS There are no wetlands on this site. SURFACE WATER MANAGEMENT PLAN (SWMP) Water Quantity Fees The SWMP has established a connection charge for the different land uses based on an average city-wide rate for the installation of water quantity systems. This cost includes land acquisition,' proposed SWMP culverts, open channels and storm water ponding areas for runoff storage. Single family residential developments have a connection charge of $1,980 per developable acre. The total net area of the property is 2.9 acres of SRF minus the existing lot. The water quantity connection charge is $1,980 per acre or $ 5,742 for 2.9 acres. These SWMP fees will be due payable to the City at time of final plat recording. Water Quality Fee The SWMP has established a water quality connection charge for each new subdivision based on land use. Dedication shall be equal to the cost of land and pond volume needed for treatment of the phosphorus load leaving the site. The requirement for cash in lieu of land and pond construction shall be based upon a schedule in accordance with the prescribed land use zoning. Values are calculated using market values of land in the City of Chanhassen plus a value of $2.50 per cubic Powers Circle November 6, 2001 Page 9 yard for excavation of the pond. The proposed SVVSViP water quality charge for single family residential developments is $800 per acre. SWIVlP fees for this proposed development are based on a total developable land area of 2.9 acres. This area does not include the existing house located on Lot 5. Under SVvhMP rules, existing homes are not to be assessed SWMP connection fees. Therefore, the applicant is required to pay $2,320 in water quality fees. INDIVIDUAL SEWAGE TREATMENT SYSTEM Onsite utilities. The existing well may continue to be used on future Lot 5 after City utilities are provided to the lot. A licensed well abandonment contractor must abandon the welt if its use is discontinued. The existing ISTS (individual sewage treatment system) must remain undisturbed until the existing home is connected to City sewer. The system should be located and protected before site grading begins. The septic tank for the ISTS must be properly abandoned by a licensed ISTS pumper. Abandonment includes pumping, removing or destroying the tank and filling the excavation or the destroyed tank. Proof of abandonment must be furnished to the Inspections Division before issuance of any building permits in the subdivision. Soils Report. Before building permits can be issued a soils report showing details and locations of house pads and verifying suitability of natural and fill soil is required. The soils report should include lot-by -lot tabulations for land development, with controlled earthwork prepared according to HUD Data Sheet 79G. This information is required in order to be able to review building plans. Addressing. The house directly to the north of the proposed subdivision will be accessed from Powers Circle. This new driveway location will require an address change for that home. The existing home within the proposed subdivision will also require an address change. PARK AND RECREATION The developer is not donating any park or trail land and there is no need in this area. Payment of full park and trail fees is required per city ordinance for the new lots being created (the existing home is exempt from park and trail fees). Park fees for 2001 are $1,500.00 per lot. Trail fees are $500.00 per lot. One-third of the total park and trail fees are payable at the time of final plat recording. The balance of the park and trail fees are paid with the building permit.

Due to the requirement to move the cul-de-sac to the east and the nonconforming status of Lot 2, staff believes that the applicant will need to eliminate one lot reducing the plat to five lots. (Note that lots must have a minimum of 125 feet of depth for each street frontage.) REZONING/COMPREHENSIVE PLAN The existing land use designation of the property is for Residential Large Lot. This area has been developed with single homes on larger lots. The parcel abuts a collector roadway. Chanhassen is a high amenity community. One of the amenities is that we have a range of residential land uses from large lot to high density. Maintaining this mixture is one of the city's goals. In addition, the community highly regards its natural environment including trees, slopes, vistas, and uncluttered open spaces. The development, as proposed, significantly impacts these features. Hillside Oaks was developed as a Large Lot development and has maintained that character. While staff believed that the conversion of both Lots 1 and 2 might not have significantly impacted the character of the area, conversion of only Lot 2 definitely impacts the character of Lot 1. Staff has consistently supported the idea that only if a majority of property owners in an existing area came in requesting land use amendments, rezoning, or intensification of uses, we would more positively support the conversion of those uses. This alone would not be the sole reason to deny the rezoning and comprehensive plan amendment. The property owners of Lots 1 and 2 bought into a large lot type development. Lots 1 and 2 are intertwined, due to shared access to Powers Boulevard, and either both should be redeveloped or neither be redeveloped. Staff believes that conversion of one lot without the other would be inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan. Powers Circle November 6, 2001 Page 11 SUBDIVISION FINDINGS 1. The proposed subdivision is consistent with the zoning ordinance; Finding: The proposed subdivision does not meet all minimum ordinance requirements for RSF zoned properties and is, at best, a marginal development proposal. The three lots abutting Powers Boulevard are too small considering that Powers Boulevard is a collector roadway and will carry high traffic volumes in the future. Due to site topography, it would be difficult, if not impossible, to adequately buffer these lots from noises and lights along the collector roadway. The site grading significantly impacts that natural character of the site, and even if approved, would require significant changes. The two lots on the west side of the development intrude into a bluff area with the preliminary grading plan. The proposed development does not meet the requirements of the A2 district. . The proposed subdivision is consistent with all applicable city, county and regional plans including but not limited to the city's comprehensive plan; Finding: The proposed development is inconsistent with the intent of the comprehensive plan and unduly impacts an existing land use as well as natural features. It has been the policy of the city that if a majority of property Owners in an existing area came in requesting land use amendments, rezoning, or intensification of uses, the city would consider the request in a more positive light. , 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; Finding: The proposed site is suitable for development subject to significant revisions to the development plan specified in this report. Due to topography, the proposed development would need to be revised to preserve additional natural features. , The proposed subdivision makes adequate provision for water supply, storm drainage, sewage disposal, streets, erosion control and all other improvements required by this chapter; Finding: The proposed subdivision would be served by adequate urban infrastructure. 5. The proposed subdivision will not cause environmental damage; Powers Circle November 6, 2001 Page 12 Finding: The proposed subdivision will cause environmental damage to site topography through grading and removal of vegetation. Significant revisions to the plan would be required to mitigate the damage. In addition, restrictions on the housing types would be necessary to reduce the developments impacts on natural features and abutting property. 6. The proposed subdivision will not conflict with easements of record. Finding: The proposed subdivision will not conflict with existing easements, but rather will expand and provide all necessary easements. . The proposed subdivision is not premature. A subdivision is premature if any of the following exists: ao Lack of adequate storm water drainage. Lack of adequate roads. Lack of adequate sanitary sewer systems. Lack of adequate off-site public improvements or support systems. Finding: The proposed subdivision is provided with adequate urban infrastructure. However, as stated previously, it has been the policy of the city that if a majority of property owners in an existing area came in requesting land use amendments, rezoning, or intensification of uses, the city would consider the request in a more positive light. From that standpoint, this project may be premature. VARIANCE FINDINGS WITHIN SUBDIVISONS The city may grant a variance from the regulations of the subdivision ordinance as part of the plat approval process following a finding that all of the following conditions exist: 1. The hardship is not a mere inconvenience. The proposed private street preserves significant site features. 2. The hardship is caused by the particular physical surroundings, shape or topographical conditions of the land. 3. The conditions upon which the request is based are unique and not generally applicable to other property due to the site features. Powers Circle November 6, 2001 Page 13 , The granting of a variance will not be substantially detrimental to the public welfare and is in accord with the purpose and intent of this chapter, the zoning ordinance and comprehensive plan. PRIVATE STREET FINDINGS (1) The prevailing development pattern makes it unfeasible or inappropriate to construct a public street. In making this determination, the city may consider the location of existing property lines and homes, local or geographic conditions and the existence of wetlands. (2) After reviewing the surrounding area, it is concluded that an extension of the public street system is not required to serve other parcels in the area, improve access, or to provide a street system consistent with the comprehensive plan. (3) The use of the private street will permit enhanced protection of the city's natural resources in this instance site topography and forested areas. REZONING FINDINGS The Zoning Ordinance directs the Planning Commission to consider six (6) possible adverse affects of the proposed amendment. The six (6) affects and our findings regarding them are: 1. The proposed action has been considered in relation to the specific policies and provisions of and has been found to be inconsistent with the official City Comprehensive Plan. 2. The proposed use is compatible with the present and future land uses of the area. 3. The proposed use does not conform to all performance standards contained in the Zoning Ordinance. 4. The proposed use will not tend to or actually depreciate the area in which it is proposed. 5. The proposed use can be accommodated with existing public services and will not overburden the city's service capacity. 6. Traffic generation by the proposed use is within capabilities of streets serving the property. Powers Circle November 6, 2001 Page 14 RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Planning Commission adopt the following motions: "The Planning Commission recommends denial of the Land Use Map Amendment from Residential - Large Lot to Residential Low Density for Lot 2, Block 1, Hillside Oaks."- "The Planning Commission recommends denial of the rezoning from A2, Agricultural Estate District, to RSF, Single Family Residential, for Lot 2, Block 1, Hillside Oaks, due to inconsistency with the comprehensive plan." "The Planning Commission recommends denial of the preliminary plat of Subdivision 97-12 creating six lots for the Powers Circle Addition subject to not complying with the land use designation and zoning requirements." If the Planning Commission decides to approve the Land Use Map Amendment and rezoning, then staff would recommend the following conditions be imposed on the preliminary plat: 1. The deVeloper shall pay the City applicable GIS and recording fees. . A preservation easement shall be recorded over the westerly portion of the site to preserve topography and trees. This easement shall include land west of a line beginning at a point on the south line of Lot 4, 80 feet east of the westerlY property line, to a'point on the north property line of Lot 4, 180 east of the westerly property line; and west of a line beginning at a point on the south line of Lot 5, 180 feet east of the westerly property line, to a point on the north property line of Lot 5, 50 east of the westerly property line; and west of a line beginning at a point on the south line of Lot 6, 50 feet east of the westerly property line, to a point on the north property line of Lot 6, 50 east of the westerly property line, there terminating. 3. An additional fire hydrant will be required at the intersection of Powers Circle and Powers Place. . A 10-foot clear space must be maintained around fire hydrants i.e., street lamps, trees, shrubs, bushes, Xcel Energy, Qwest, cable TV and transformer boxes. This is to ensure that fire hydrants can be quickly located and safely operated by firefighters. Pursuant to Chanhassen City Ordinance #9-1. 5. There will be no parking allowed along one side of the new proposed road. Fire lane signs will be installed by the developer per requirements set forth by Chanhassen Fire Powers Circle November 6, 2001 Page 15 Department/Fire Prevention Division Policy #6-1991 and Section 904-1 1997 Minnesota Uniform Fire Code. 6. No burning permits will be issued for trees to be removed. Trees and brUsh must either be removed from site or chipped. , The proposed new driveway extending south from the cul-de-sac is in excess of 150 feet. Per 1997 Minnesota Uniform Fire Code Section 902.2.2.4. dead-end fire apparatus access roads in excess of 150 feet in length shall be provided with approved provisions for turning around of fire apparatus. Exception: When buildings are completely protected with an approved automatic fire sprinkler system the provisions of the turn around may be modified by the Fire Department. Contact Chanhassen Fire Marshal for more information regarding the exception. o Lot 6 shall be designated as a "custom graded" lot.

On November 6, 2001, the Chanhassen Planning Commission met at its regularly schedule meeting to consider the application of Arild Rossavik for rezoning property from Agricultural Estate District, A-2, to Single Family Residential District, RSF. The Planning Commission conducted a public hearing on the proposed rezoning preceded by published and mailed notice, The Planning Commission heard testimony from all interested persons wishing to speak and now makes the following: FINDINGS OF FACT . 2. 3. 4. The property is cun:ently zoned Agricultural Estate District, A-2. The property is guided in the Land Use Plan for Residential Large Lot. The legal description of the property is: Lot 2, Block 1, Hillside Oaks. The Zoning Ordinance directs the Planning Commission to consider six (6) possible adverse affects of the proposed amendment. The six (6) affects and our findings regarding them are: a) The proposed action has been considered in relation to the specific policies and provisions of and has been found to be inconsistent with the official City Comprehensive Plan. Powers Circle November 6, 2001 Page 20 b) The proposed use is compatible with the Present and future land uses of the area. c) The proPosed use does not conform to all performance standards contained in the Zoning Ordinance. d) The proposed use will not tend to or actually depreciate the area in which it is proposed. e) The proposed use can be accommodated with existing public services and will not overburden the city's service capacity. Traffic generation by the proposed use is within capabilities of streets serving the property. o The planning report #2001-3 Rezone dated November 6, 2001, prepared by Robert Generous, et al, is incorporated herein. RECOIVIMENDATION The Planning Commission recommends that the City Council deny the rezoning. ADOPTED by the Chanhassen Planning Commission this 6th day of October, 2001.

The application of Mr. Rossavik to rezone his property at 8800 Powers Boulevard is enclosed. Presently, this neighborhood in the northwest quadrant of Powers Boulevard and Lyman Boulevard (CR18) is zoned for "residential-large lot (2.5 acres minimum)" An inspection of the City Zoning Map will show that this small area of seven lots is the only land zoned in such a manner between downtown Chanhassen and Bluff Creek Golf Course. In fact, it is surrounded by planned unit development townhouses to the north and "residential-low density (1.2 - 4 units per acre)" zones on the west, south, and east; and these properties will soon be immediate to the TH212 improvements. Moreover, this property fronts Powers Boulevard which will be host to 10,000 cars per day in the near future. Mr. Rossavik's property and that of his neighbors appear under-utilized. The surrounding land is open with few trees. The sites are not secluded, rather they are exposed. They do not have the amenities typically attributed to sites zoned large lot - residential i.e., attractive topography, wooded character, and relative privacy. The designation of these seven lots as "residential-large lot" in a sea of higher density zoning is an anomaly. Therefore, Mr. Rossavik is requesting that the City acknowledge this anomaly and allow his property to be developed in conformance with the zoning of surrounding properties - residential-low density (1.2 - 4 units per acre) properties. __ KELLY LAW OFFICES '-2- If developed, Mr. Rossavik's property could be host to a total of six homes including his existing home. A sample proposed plat is included herewith for your inspection. Sewer and water infrastructure anticipating such an improvement was built years ago and is presently under utilized. The SAC and WAC charges the City can expect, (if the area is re-zoned), will help amortize this significant prior investment. Please observe that the property to the north - 8750 Powers Boulevard, (the office and warehouse of AC & Heating by George), is also subject to a future division and might be host to an additional two-three properties (see alternate proposed plat). The residential driveway servicing 8750 has insufficient room for the large trucks delivering commercial goods to turn around on-site, rather they must back in, or (worse?), back out on to the Boulevard. The development of a cul-de-sac in conjunction with the anticipated platting of these properties would alleviate this safety problem. It should be kept in mind that this re-zoning will not immediately result in the re-development of all property in this area. While Mr. Rossavik hopes to develop his property, it should be noted that the Rossavik property abuts the PUD to the north and, if developed, will not immediately impact those properties off of Oakside Circle. The present character of those properties may be maintained indefinitely. This rezoning does not conflict with your Comprehensive Plan, in fact, it will provide an opportunity for "affordable housing" by making an efficient use of land best employed for more economically priced housing. Because of the character of the land, the neighboring higher density developments, and proximity to high traffic arterial boulevards and TH212, the market value of Mr. Rossavik's land will be lower than most home sites in the City. Making available economical home sites good municipal planning. My client stands ready to answer any questions that you might have and looks forward to working with you hereon.

Dear Arild: Per vour request, I reviewed the site at 8750 and 8800 Poxvers Boulevard to determine the absence or presence of jurisdictional wetlands. B-ased on the methodologies described below, there are no wetlands on the parcel. Wetland Determination Methodology The site was reviexved in the field on April 30, 1996 using the Corps of Engineers Wetlands Delineation Manual (Enviromnental Laboratory, 1987). This manual is currently followed to delineate wetlands regulated under both the Minnesota Wetland Conservation Act of 1991 (-as mnended) and Section 404 of the Federal Clean Water Act. ? ~' . Background Data '-.ii:i:~ "' ;' ." "'' '"'::':::.;i:':' :". " - Background data used to identify potential wetland areas before conducting th~ field regiew'inclUde National Wetlan& Inventory (NWl) mapping and the ,Soil Survey of Carver County.:-No wetlands or' hydric soils were identified on either of these sources.

" .-; ~,:, ' Field Review Findings ~. :' i~:.,:'.~::¥ · .: '7~- ',~,\': ~:~-_:. -;-?; ..:5: :.'.~ Site topography slopes steeply from the west to east, and the eastern edge of the site aba'tS i/0w-e~rs"-~: Boulevard (County Road 17). The four gullies shown on the Soil Survey are readih' obser~abie"in field, but, as noted below, none of them have wetland hydrology. No other drainage patterns, d. eP.resSi°n~l areas, or other landscape features indicate potential wetland areas. '.' ~ ' ' ' ' ' :.'*'d' '-- In summary: 1. No direct or indirect evidence of hydrology ,vas observed. Vegetation, topography, and upslope drainage modifications provide adequate evidence to indicate the site lacks wctland hydrology. The gullies on the site were likely eroded by drainage tile outlets that served thc cropland that was located on top of the hill. These tiles have been removed (or cut) and havc not fiinctioned for a number of years. All of the land above the gullies has been converted to single-family residential uses, and the uppermost portions of the gullies are filled. 2. The outlets of the gullies are dominated by plants that seldom or rarely grow in wetlands, including smooth brome (B$'omus inermis; UPL), staghom sumac (Rhus typhina, prickly ash (Zanlhoxylem americanum; FACU-), Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis; FAC-), and Canada goldenrod Mr. Afild Rossavik May 1, 1996 Page 2 (Solidago canadensis; FACU). The northernmost gully exhibits some wetland vegetation including black willow (Salix nigra; OBL) and red-osier dogwood (Comus stolonifera; FACW), however these plants are remnant from when the tile or drainage outlet that created this gully was functioning. The Soil Survey, predominance of upland vegetation, and significant modifications to the drainage area that historically served the gullies provide adequate data to determine no hydric soils exist on the site. For these reasons, we submit that no wetlands exits on the site. Conclusions The site does not appear to contain any jurisdictional wetlands.

These comments and questions are based on the information submitted. Further comments and concerns may develop as this proposal advances. Powers Boulevard (CSAH 17) was just recently reconstructed in 1996 and 1997. As part of the development of the construction plan, access for this property was reviewed and addressed. The Chanhassen City Engineer was involved in those discussions and decisions. The existing private access is a right in / right out only access. There is no opening in the center island on Powers Boulevard to accommodate a full access. It is the position of Carver County that if Powers Circle were approved, it would be approved as a right in/right out only access to Powers Blvd. An access permit from the County Engineer's Office will be required if this driveway is changed from a private access to a City street. The previous Chanhassen City Engineer had indicated that there was a nuisance type drainage problem that occurs at this entrance due to the trail construction. Snowmelt from the trail apparently crosses the driveway and freezes on the pavement. This causes a slippery, icing problem on the entrance. The City should consider resolution of this problem if the access is reconstructed. Thank you for the opportunity to comment on this request. If there are further questions regarding these comments, please contact me at 952-361-1010.
