Total Acreage 5.61
• Approved via site plan review and subdivision — Ordinance 47, Section 14.
• Approved via PUD agreement which is referenced in the rezoning ordinance.
• Plat of former concept plan for Western Hills PRD (36 -unit townhouse project) into
conventional single - family subdivision. Evaluating Planned Community Development
according to Ordinance 47, Section 14.
REZONING
The City is requesting to rezone approximately 5.6 acres to Planned Unit Development -
Residential (PUD -R) to incorporate the unique development standards and referencing the
Single - Family Residential District (RSF). The project consists of 21 single - family units. The
review criteria are taken from the intent section of the PUD Ordinance.
Section 20 -501. Intent
Planned unit developments offer enhanced flexibility to develop a site through the relaxation of
most normal zoning district standards. The use of the PUD in this instance is to permit
development on smaller lot sizes. 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.
The proposed development provides a compatible development with the surrounding
development.
The proposed amendment and rezoning assist in the furtherance of the following land use goals
of the City of Chanhassen Comprehensive Plan:
• Development will be encouraged within the MUSA line.
• The plan should seek to establish sufficient land to provide a full range of housing
opportunities.
• The city will seek opportunities to provide transitions between different uses of different
types.
• Development should be phased in accordance with the ability of the city to provide
services.
The proposed amendment and rezoning assist in the furtherance of the following housing goals
of the City of Chanhassen Comprehensive Plan:
Laredo Lane Residential Planned Unit Development Amendment

Page 3 of 4
• A balanced housing supply with housing available for people of all income levels.
• A variety of housing types for people in all stages of the life cycle.
• Housing development that respects the natural environment of the community while
striving to accommodate the need for a variety of housing types and costs.
Staff is proposing the following development standards regulating the development of the
property:
