For property at: 6645 Horseshoe Curve Chanhassen MN 55317
I am proposing the following for site improvement:
The homeowners contacted me to take a look at their site because of erosion issues, difficulties maintaining
the steep hill off the back of the house, a failing staircase, and a failing flagstone patio. The homeowners
moved into the house as it is currently and have made no changes to the existing landscape. Once I looked
at the site I noticed the issues my homeowners mentioned along with existing hardcover concerns, as well
as existing tree concerns. After going through everything I came up with this plan to improve the
conditions of the lot by trying to stop erosion of the hillside, maintaining the care of the existing trees and
general nature of the lot. This is being done by the following.
1. Problem:
• Homeowner is having difficulty maintaining the erosion of the hillside out of the back of the
house due to the drastic elevation change and shade provided by the existing mature trees.
There is existing grass and some edging with plantings but due to the elevation change
along with shade from existing trees and tree roots being exposed nothing is growing and
soil continues to erode down the hill to the lake.
Solution:
• Propose building a 4' tall retaining wall to hold up the upper level of the property as well as
cutting down of the hillside to level out the lower part of the hill to stop erosion for
continuing to occur.
2. Problem:
• Access to lower level of the yard and the lake. There are existing stairs on site now that are
much farther toward the lake that are falling apart and are unsafe and unusable in their
current condition.
Solution:
• Build in with the boulder wall a staircase that does not go so far into the yard that is tied
into the wall with 1' wide Chilton stairs to provide a save and easy way to get to the lake.
3. Problem:
• Large uneven broken down patio along with small (not to code) landing from back door to
the existing patio. Very dense shade and dead soil.
Solution:
• Replace existing stoop with small deck to lower to new paver patio to replace the existing
stone patio. Provide new soil and plantings. Will shrink the existing hardcover and provide
small sitting area in dead space and allow access from back door to the yard.
The property was purchased as it is now. As the property sits right now there is major runoff and erosion
happening due to the steep slope off the back of the house and the existing mature trees that provide
shade and a natural look from both the lake and the house. There is an existing large broken up patio with
stairs that go into the home along with a very large broken down staircase from the upper yard into the
lower yard. By doing this landscape we are trying to reduce the runoff and erosion along with possible
pollution being carried into the lake, maintain the health of the existing trees, allow for easer maintenance
of the property, and reduce the existing hardcover. Keeping in mind we are not changing the look of the
property and are preserving it by leveling the yard keeping the tree roots buried and providing access from
the house to the lake. This is not to save money for the property owners. It is to maintain the property,
help keep the lake clean, provide a safe environment, and protect the trees and look of the natural
surroundings.
