PROPOSAL/SUMMARY
The applicant is requesting site plan review approval for a 11,095 square foot 11/2 story retail,
showroom, and office building. As part of the Planned Unit Development (PUD) for Villages on
the Ponds, this site was envisioned for up to a 11,750 square foot office/retail building.
The PUD requires that the development demonstrate a higher quality of architectural standards
and site design. The intent is to create a pedestrian friendly, "traditional" village character
consistent with the European heritage of the upper midwest including the north-midwestem
architectural vocabulary, village like human scale and flavor, and variety in design and facade
treatment.
The PUD requires that the developer and future site users shall incorporate street/plaza furniture,
planting boxes, public art, bicycle racks, drinking fountains, etc. within the development and on
individual site plans. The area west of the building is being developed as a patio. The overall
Villages on the Ponds hardscape plan designates two benches to be located along the sidewalk
adjacent to Lake Drive. However, since the applicant is proposing a mini-plaza east of the building
with planter boxes and a patio with tables, and planter boxes west of the building under an open
wood trellis, benches along Lake Drive will not be required.
The trash enclosure is located inside the building within the work bay located on the north side of
the structure.
The building is one and one-half stories. The primary building material is an autumn wheat stucco
(Sto Finish System) which is raised in areas for added detail. Modular medium red face brick will
be used to create a traditional building base as well as highlighting the comers of the building. A
wheat colored stone trim will encase windows. Extensive window openings have been provided
along the street frontages to make the pedestrian experience more enjoyable. Window frames will
be an almond colored extruded aluminum. Metal trim and wood backers and trellises will be a teal
color. Roofing material will be a cinnamon frost colored asphalt shingle. Roof type is gabled end
with multiple shifts in valley orientation.
The building is accented with two towers located in the northwest and southeast comers of the
building. The southeast tower will contain two clock faces, on the east and south elevations. The
north and west elevations will be highlighted by circular windows. The towers are crested with
pennant standards. Window accents include flattened arches with keystones located at the top of
the arch. Windows are further accented with cross window elements.
The applicant is proposing installation of fencing around the wetlands. Staff believes that the
fencing along the sidewalk between Lake Drive and Pond Promenade can be eliminated and the
The Peddler Cyclery
June 2,1999
Page 3
slope to the pond re-graded. The fencing on the north and west sides of the building should be a
decorative type fence rather than chain link. A low three - four foot tall wrought iron fence
would be both decorative and functional and match other fencing that is in place in the Villages
on the Ponds.
The proposed site plan has incorporated many of the design features recommended within the
Villages on the Ponds design standard. The proposed development will be a welcomed addition
to the Villages as well as the community as a whole. Staff is recommending approval of the site
plan for the Peddler Cyclery subject to the conditions of the staff report.

GENERAL SITE PLAN/ARCHITECTURE
The proposed development must comply with the Villages on the Ponds Design Standards,
Sector II (see attached Exhibit) for the PUD. The purpose of this zone is to create a mixed use
PUD consisting of commercial, institutional, office, and residential uses. The use of the PUD
zone is to allow for more flexible design standards while creating a higher quality and more
sensitive proposal. All utilities are required to be placed underground. Each lot proposed for
development shall proceed through site plan review based on the development standards outlined
in the design standards. The design criteria cover all aspects of the development including
lighting consistency, signage requirements, uses, building materials, design and architectural
detailing, site coverage, and building square footages.
LANDSCAPING
Minimum requirements for landscaping include 952 sq. ft. of landscaped area around the parking
lot and 4 trees for the parking lot. The applicant's proposal, as compared to the requirements for
landscape area and parking lot trees, is shown in the following table.
Vehicular use landscape area

Thc Peddler Cyclery
June 2, 1999
Page 5
The applicant exceeds minimum ordinance requirements for number of trees and total amount of
landscape area. However, in regards to the plantings of American linden near the building, staff
has three concerns. First is irrigation. The trees in front of the building will be planted with only
16 square feet of exposed soil, less than the amount of exposure in a typical parking lot island,
Rainfall alone will not be able to sustain the trees and staff recommends irrigation be installed
with attention to proper drainage of the planting holes. Second, the planting holes are proposed
to be covered with loose brick pavers which may not protect the trees from compacted soil.
These trees are in high foot traffic areas and only a grate raised above the soil will eliminate the
resulting compaction from pedestrians. Staff recommends the pavers either be placed on a grate
system which is raised above the soil or be replaced by a tree grate. Third, the applicant's
building incorporates a clock tower and one of the trees, an American linden, will be planted
almost directly in front of the clock. At maturity, this type of tree can reach up to 70 feet. While
this height most likely will never be reached due to the stressful conditions, it should be
considered. A smaller ornamental species that wouldn't block the clock may be more
appropriate in that site.
GRADING
The site has been rough graded with the initial development of Villages on the Ponds.
Additional grading is proposed for sidewalks, the patio area and building pad. Grading will
occur adjacent to the stormwater pond north of the site and the wetland west of the site. The
wetland is classified as a utilized wetland which has zero setback requirements. Grading for the
patio area will require construction of a 3 to 3.5-foot high retaining wall on the west side of the
building to avoid filling closer to the wetland. A shorter retaining wall is proposed along the
north side of the building. A fence is also proposed around the perimeter of the retaining walls.
Staff is concerned that the fencing would not be compatible with the intent of the Villages on the
Ponds theme. Staff encourages the applicant to consider using decorative fencing material
similar to what the Houlihan's site has used which is a wrought iron that blends very well with
the building and site characteristics. A retaining wall is also proposed along a proposed sidewalk
which is also along the drive aisles north of the building. Staff has reviewed the site and feels
comfortable that the slopes of the pond could be re-graded to eliminate the need for a retaining
wall and fence. The grading plans should be revised to show proposed grades and elimination of
the retaining wall and fence north of the building. Staff is unclear as to who is responsible for
construction of the sidewalks along Lake Drive and the north/south street. This should be
clarified on the plans.
DRAINAGE
The site plan appears to be in general conformance with the overall comprehensive drainage plan
which was prepared and constructed for the Villages on the Ponds project. An additional storm
sewer system/catch basin is proposed to drain the drive aisles to the building. This storm sewer
The Peddler Cyclery
June 2, 1999
Page 6
line would be privately installed, maintained and owned upon completion. The applicant will be
required to obtain the necessary permits for the installation of storm sewer from the City's
Building Department. Stormwater runoff from the remaining site will be collected via existing
catch basins which will convey the runoff to downstream regional stormwater ponds that have
been installed with the Villages on the Ponds project.
At the time of final platting for this site, the developer shall be required to pay storm water fees
pursuant to city ordinance.
UTILITIES
Municipal sewer and water is available to the site. The utilities were installed in Lake Drive as a
part of the Villages on the Ponds project.
In conjunction with the site development, an existing hydrant on Lake Drive is proposed to be
relocated outside of the future patio area of the building. Staff encourages the applicant to
redesign the patio area to leave the hydrant in place. The grade at the proposed hydrant location
is much lower and staff is concerned about frost protection for the fire hydrant. However, the
applicant could also adjust the grade around the proposed hydrant to provide the necessary frost
protection around the hydrant as well. Should the applicant still require relocation of the existing
hydrant, appropriate permits will be required from the City's Building Department. In addition, it
may be necessary to temporarily shut off the water in Lake Drive to accommodate relocation of
the hydrant. The City requires a 48-hour notice for the City to turn off the water for this work.
All water tum-ons and mm-offs must be coordinated through the City.
EROSION CONTROL
The grading and drainage plan needs to be revised to incorporate erosion control measures
around the site. Type I silt fence shall be required around the grading limits except the access
point along the north/south street. Construction access to the site shall be limited to the
north/south street and not Lake Drive.
STREETS
The site will be accessed via the north/south street which is located north of Lake Drive. The
applicant is proposing a driveway entrance to provide access to a service garage which will
eliminate approximately four to five parking stalls. The remaining parking lot improvements
have been completed with the exception of the final lift of asphalt and parking lot striping. The
plans show a 6-foot wide concrete sidewalk along the north/south street and a 5-foot wide
bituminous trail around the north and west sides of the building out to Lake Drive West. There is
an existing bituminous trail/sidewalk along the south side of the building that will need to be
The Peddler Cyclery
June 2, 1999
Page 7
removed and replaced with a 6-foot wide concrete walk in accordance with the Villages on the
Ponds hardscape plan. Again, the plans need to clarify who is responsible, the developer of
Villages on the Ponds or the applicant. The plans also propose on relocating a street sign and
street light in conjunction with the building. The street sign designates the right turn lane on
westbound Lake Drive. The sign could be relocated to the east approximately 40 feet. The street
light could be moved westerly approximately 40 feet near the proposed hydrant relocation.
LIGHTING/SIGNAGE
Except for decorative wall lighting, the applicant is not proposing any lighting with the project.
However, the PUD requires that decorative, pedestrian scale lighting be provided along all
sidewalks. Spacing of these lights should be similar to those along main street. Therefore, three
lights must be installed along the sidewalk from Lake Drive to Pond Promenade. The lighting
fixtures shall be designed to provide a 90 degree lighting cut-off.
The applicant is proposing signage over the main entrance on the east and the west elevation.
However, the PUD standards permit signage on the east and south elevations. Provided that
signage is only proposed on two elevations, the applicant may choose which two elevations will
have signage. All signs shall require a separate sign permit.
PARKS AND RECREATION
The applicant should be aware that, pursuant to city ordinance, at the time of building permit
application, two-thirds of the park and trail fees will be due. The other one-third of park and trail
fees are due at the time of final platting for the lot.
MISCELLANEOUS
The site is currently in a outlot status and will need final platted prior to issuance of the building
permit. In conjunction with the final platting, the development contract/PUD agreement for
Villages on the Ponds will also need to be amended to include this phase. The final plat
documents need to be submitted to the City a minimum of three weeks prior to a City Council
meeting.
Two accessible parking spaces are required for the thirty-four spaces that are being provided and
they must be located near the main entrance. The floor plan was not reviewed for code related
items. The utility plan was not reviewed at this time. Staff recommends that the building owner
and or their representative meet with the Inspections Division as early as possible to discuss plan
review procedures and permit requirements.

SITE PLAN FINDINGS
In evaluating a site plan and building plan, the city shall consider the development's compliance
with the following:
(1)
Consistency with the elements and objectives of the city's development guides,
including the comprehensive plan, official road mapping, and other plans that may
be adopted;
(2) Consistency with this division;
(3)
Preservation of the site in its natural state to the extent practicable by minimizing
tree and soil removal and designing grade chang,es to be in keeping with the
general appearance of the neighboring developed or developing or developing
areas;
(4)
Creation of a harmonious relationship of building and open space with natural site
features and with existing and future buildings having a visual relationship to the
development;
(5)
Creation of functional and harmonious design for structures and site features, with
special attention to the following:
ao
An internal sense of order for the buildings and use on the site and
provision of a desirable environment for occupants, visitors and general
community;
b. The amount and location of open space and landscaping;
Co
Materials, textures, colors and details of construction as an expression of
the design concept and the compatibility of the same with adjacent and
neighboring structures and uses; and
do
Vehicular and pedestrian circulation, including walkways, interior drives
and parking in terms of location and number of access points to the public
streets, width of interior drives and access points, general interior
circulation, separation of pedestrian and vehicular traffic and arrangement
and amount of parking.
(6)
Protection of adjacent and neighboring properties through reasonable provision
for surface water drainage, sound and sight buffers, preservation of views, light

and air and those aspects of design not adequately covered by other regulations
which may have substantial effects on neighboring land uses.
Finding: The proposed site plan is consistent with all plans and specifications and
development design standards for the Village on the Ponds Planned Unit Development.
Staff believes the use of the property for a bicycle shop is complementary to the other
uses that will be built within the Villages on the Ponds as well as the community at large.

feet; thence South 30 degrees 21 minutes 37 seconds East 147.78 feet to the point of
beginning.
The Peddler Cyclery -
its designed integration into "Villages on the Ponds" traditional village character.
The site plan of the proposed Peddler Cyclery is designed to reinforce the street front public
realm. The walkways, with its planters, tree plantings and seating is conducive to pedestrian
activity. In addition, bicycling, a prominent form of pedestrian transportation in many European
villages, will have a significant destination in the Peddler Cyclery.
The Peddler Cyclery has many design features that will bring additional layers of texture to the
"Village's" streetscape success. The flat storefront elevations are articulated with brick and
stucco products constructed with current building systems that recall traditional design. For
example, the windows will have cast concrete trim with keystones located on the top of flattened
arches. In addition, the facades will be embellished with a raised stucco/insulation system,
personalized signage, roof over-hangs with wood arched brackets located at corners, an ivy
covered trellis and decorative wall light fixtures.
The corner towers of the Peddler Cyclery serve an urban design purpose in the sense that they are
both gateways to the "Village" as well as focal points for pedestrian promenading. The
traditional clock tower mass calls attention to a major storefront bicycle display at the corner of
Lake Drive. The tower masses will be articulated with brick quoins, an eyelid roof eave detail and
traditional downcast decorative lighting.
With warmest regards,
Leonard Lampert, Architect

Mika Milo, AIA
Architectural Review Committee (A.R.C.)
P.U.D. Village on the Ponds, Chanhassen, MN
Proposed "The Peddler Cy¢lery" building
Site Plan Review Approval Processing
Design Material~ Reviewed:
Site plan, elevations, floor plan, landscape plan, dated 4/30/99
Based on the above submittals and on behalf of thc Architectural Review
Committee, I am issuing the following comments:
The U~e,:
Conforms to the approved P.U.D. Actually, it is a perfect use that further
underlines thc p&lestrian and bicycle traffic oriented character of the Village.
2. Site Planning:
2.1 Developm.eat S~e and Density:
Conforms to tho approved P.U.D.
2.20v.eratl Site Design:
Conforms to the site design direction established by the P.U.D. for this
arcs. Reexamine thc position of thc building's South wail edge in
relationship to the building setback and RAV along LakeDrive. The intent
was to position the building with zero setbacks in order to form a
continuous, traditional street face. But the resulting distance, as we
measure it on the site plan, is only 6 feet to the Lake Drive's curb line.
How is that going to accommodate th~ sidewalk and the streetscope along
the northern edge of thc Lake Drive? Can the building be pushed further
to the North to allow more space between the driveway and the building?
2.2 Acoessibilitv:
Car traffic and parking appear to be in conformance with the P.U.D. Also,
there is a good access along the East, both for pedestrians as w, ll as
bicycles. Yet, as mentioned above, ?.U.D. requires a strong pedestrian
circulation to be encouraged along both sides of the Lake Drive, starting
from the Hwy. 101 all tim way to Interstate 5 at the northeastern end of the
Village. The site plan is not clear about the sidewalk and the s~eetseape
along Lake Drive in the vicin/ty of proposed building.

3. Buildino Design
3.1 Size, Height .and Bulk: Substantially conforms to P.U.D. and is acceptable.
3.2
Desi~ Character and Flavor: The overall building design including its clock
tower, has a traditional cttaracter reflecting fa/niliar, plea,ant forms. Roof forms,
ar¢t~itectural articulations and openings treatment, combined with selected
materials, will provide for a good blend with the Village architecture. The
architecture is well articulated on all four sides; there is really no "rear side" on
this building. An outside patio with wood trellis facing Hwy. 101 is a welcome
element that, along with large window areas all around ~e building, helps in
building the Village's dynamic, street activities oriented image.
3.3
Materials and Colors: Materials are appropriate, of reasonable quality, and blend
well together. The brick, stucco and asphalt shingle sloped roofs, are a good
match to the motel building just north of this facility, and other Village buildings
as well.
Colored elevatio~t~ needs still to be provided to A.R.C. for review and apprqvat
consideration.
3.4
S_/Ko. gg~: We welcome very tasteful, low profile, and moderate signage program
as shown on the buitding elevations. The building, with its towers, will by itself
provide strong identity and exposure for the bicycle shop. Hence, the moderate
signage proposed is quite adequate and meets the P.U.D. intent.
Further detailed .~pec~cx regarding the proposed signage (material. lighting.
color) needs to be still forwarded to A.R.C. for review and approval.
4. Summary/Recommendation:
Aside from the above suggestions and other city's own compliance ~review
comments made to the design team and the developer of the subject property, we
recommend the approval for the submitted design. This retail/office development
will be an excellent addition to the uses and architecture within'the Village.
NOte: Please provide colored elevations and signage specifications for A.R.C. 's
review and approval
