The site is zoned lOP, Industrial Office Park and located east of Audubon Road, north of Sunset Ridge Park and south of the Twin Cities and Western Railroad. The lot area of the day care facility site and office building is 2.89 acres. It is located in an Industrial Office Park District. A day care is a conditional use in the lOP District. The subdivision request consists of replatting Lots 9 and 10, Block 1, Chanhassen Business Park 7th Addition (11.736 acres), into 3 lots and two outlots. The daycare-office/warehouse is proposed on Lot 3. The remaining two lots will be reserved for future development. Outlot A will contain the right-of-way that will provide access to the subdivision and Outlot B will contain a NURP pond. There is one minor revision required on Lot 2. The ordinance allows a minimum of 60 feet of lot frontage on lots abutting a cul-de-sac. Lot 2 has 51.02 feet of lot frontage. This lot line can easily be shifted to meet ordinance requirements. The subdivision request is a relatively straightforward action; The site plan is for the daycare-office/warehouse building and is reasonably well developed. The building is proposed to utilize rock face block on all four sides accented by bands and cornice. Entry ways are accented by canopies. Loading docks are located along the east elevation and will be screened from views. Staff is not objecting to the design of the building, however, on June 14, 1999, the City Council approved four office/warehouse buildings that are similar in design to the subject proposal. Staff made the applicant aware of this concern and he explained that he was willing to make the modification. We are recommending the applicant introduce some new elements to this building. The applicant has not shown the location of the outdoor play area for the daycare. The plans must be modified to show type of fencing and landscaping within that area. Parking for vehicles is located around the building. Vehicles will be screened by landscaping and future buildings. The site landscaping is deficient and will need to be increased to meet ordinance requirements. A parking lot light plan is required. The plan should incorporate the light style, height, and photo-metrics. Also, a detailed sign plan which include lighting method has to be submitted. The site plan shows that trash will be located inside the building. Chanhassen Lakes Business Park 8th Addition July 7, 1999 Page 3 Rooftop equipment and mechanical equipment are not shown on the plans. All equipment must be screened from views. Staff regards the project as a reasonable use of the land. Based upon the foregoing, staff is recommending approval of the site plan, without variances, a conditional use permit and subdivision requests for this proposal. BACKGROUND On April 12, 1999, the City Council approved a Resolution Declaring No Need for an Environmental Impact Statement for the Chanhassen Lakes Business Park 7th Addition Project,' Subdivision 99-1 preliminary plat to replat Outlot D into 10 lots, Chanhassen Lakes Business Park 7th Addition, and wetland alteration permit to fill 1.23 acres, provide 1.62 acres of in kind mitigation and 1.89 public value credits, as shown on the plans dated received January 26, 1999, subject to conditions. The final plat was approved by the City Council on June 14, 1999. Lots 9 and 10 were envisioned to be the home for two buildings. As a condition of approval, the NURP pond was moved to Lot 10 which made the lot unbuildable. The applicant decided to replat these two large lots into three smaller lots with three smaller buildings. PRELIMINARY PLAT FOR CHANHASSEN LAKES BUSINESS CENTER 8TM ADDITION The applicant is requesting preliminary plat approval to replat Lots 9 and 10 into three lots and two outlots. The site is zoned lOP, Office Industrial Park and is located east of Audubon Road, north of Sunset Ridge Park and south of the Twin Cities and Western Railroad. Lots 1 and 2 are reserved for future developments. Lot 3 is proposed to contain a daycare- office/warehouse building. Outlot A will contain the right-of-way for the cul-de-sac and Outlot B will contain a NURP pond. All three lots meet the minimum depth, width, and area requirements of the zoning ordinance with the exception of lot 2. The ordinance allows a minimum of 60 feet of lot frontage on lots abutting a cul-de-sac. Lot 2 has 51.02 feet of lot frontage. This lot line can easily be shifted to meet ordinance requirements. Access to the subdivision will be provided via a cul-de-sac which extends off Lake Drive West. The subdivision request is a relatively straightforward action and staff is recommending approval with conditions. WETLANDS There are no wetlands on the subject site. Chanhassen Lakes Business Park 8th Addition July 7, 1999 Page 4 GRADING The site will be graded with Chanhassen Lakes Business Park 7th Addition. Therefore, no additional grading is anticipated to occur with this proposal. Overall, the grading plans appear to be consistent with the final grading, drainage and erosion control plan approved with Chanhassen Lakes Business Center 7th Addition. UTILITIES Municipal water service is proposed to be extended to the plat in conjunction with the City's public improvement project for Lake Drive West, Project No. 98-15. Sanitary sewer and water service is proposed to be extended by the developer. Sanitary sewer service is proposed to be extended from the existing trunk interceptor lines located in the northeast comer of the site. Water service will be extended along the proposed street to the individual lots by the developer. Detailed construction plans and specifications in accordance with the City's latest edition of Standard Specifications and Detail Plates shall be submitted to the City for review and approval in conjunction with final plat approval. Construction plans and specifications need to be submitted a minimum of three weeks prior to final plat consideration. The developer will be required to enter into a development contract with the City and provide a financial security to guarantee installation of the public improvements and final plat conditions of approval. DRAINAGE The plans propose on extending a series of storm sewer lines to convey surface water runoff into the regional stormwater pond located on Outlot B. The developer will be constructing the storm sewer in the street to the stormwater pond. The pond will be constructed with Chanhassen Lakes Business Park 7th Addition improvements. Detailed stormwater drainage calculations for a 10- year and 100-year, 24-hour storm event shall be submitted to the City Engineer for review and approval prior to final plat consideration. STREETS The developer has petitioned the City to construct street and utility improvements for Lake Drive West in conjunction with the platting of Chanhassen Lakes Business Park 7th Addition. Lake Drive West is proposed to be constructed in accordance with the City's urban industrial street section which is a 9-ton road design, 36-foot wide face-to-face street section with boulevard street lighting and landscaping. An 8-foot wide bituminous trail will also be constructed along the northerly line of Lake Drive West. The plans are proposing to extend the short cul-de-sac street (public) offofLake Drive West to service the lots within the plat. The appropriate amount of right-of-way is being dedicated with the plat for the public street. Staff does recommend that a 30-foot radius be designed into the cul-de-sac where the tangent street meets the cul-de-sac Chanhassen Lakes Business Park 8th Addition July 7, 1999 Page 5 (southwest comer) to accommodate truck turning movements. The public street will need to be constructed by the developer as part of the overall development improvements. Boulevard lighting and sidewalks are to be included with the street improvements. The City roadway shall be built in accordance with the City's urban industrial street section which is a 36-foot wide, face- to-face, 9-ton road design. Detailed construction plans and specifications for this street will need to be submitted a minimum of three weeks prior to final plat consideration for City review and approval. The developer will need to name the cul-de-sac street prior to final plat approval. The street name shall be subject to the City Public Safety Department's approval to avoid duplication of City street names. In conjunction with the EAW for the Chanhassen Lakes Business Park 7th Addition, a traffic study for the proposal indicated that a future traffic signal may be warranted at the intersection of Lake Drive West and Powers Boulevard. As was recommended with the 7th Addition phase, the developer shall be required to escrow with the City a financial guarantee for its share based on traffic generated from the site of the local cost participation for a traffic signal at Lake Drive West and Powers Boulevard. The City's local participation costs of the traffic signal is not known at this time. Once the final traffic study is completed to address traffic-related issues as a result of this development, staff will be able to incorporate a methodology to determine the developer's share for a future traffic signal. A condition will be placed in the development contract accordingly. EROSION CONTROL Erosion control measures are proposed throughout the site. A rock construction entrance is also proposed off of Lake Drive West. MISCELLANEOUS The existing drainage and utility easement dedicated with Chanhassen Lakes Business Park 7th Addition over Lots 9 and 10, Block 1 will need to be vacated. The developer will need to petition the City to formally vacate the unused drainage and utility easement prior to recording the final plat. SWMP Storm Water Quality and Quantity Fees All fees were paid with the Chanhassen Lakes Business Park 7th Addition.

In addition, all lots must meet the following requirements: The maximum height for a structure is 4 stories/50 feet. · Minimum building and parking setback requirements are 30 foot front yard, 30 foot rear yard and 10 foot side yard. · There is no minimum parking setback requirements from the railroad right-of-way. · There is no minimum parking setback requirements when it abuts, without being separated by a street, another off-street parking area. · Maximum hard surface lot coverage is 70%. · The wetlands shall be protected by a buffer strip. The width of the buffer strip shall be 0'-20' with an average of 10 feet. All buildings shall maintain a 40 foot setback from the outside edge of the buffer strip. Wetland buffer areas shall be surveyed and staked in accordance with the city ordinance. SITE PLAN REVIEW GENERAL SITE PLAN/ARCHITECTURE The proposed daycare-office/warehouse building, with an area of 20,195 square feet, will be located on proposed Lot 3. Access to the building is proposed from a cul-de-sac which will connect to Lake Drive West. The building is located 104 feet from the north, 139 feet from the east, 78 feet from the south, and 64 feet from the west property line. Chanhassen Lakes Business Park 8th Addition July 7, 1999 Page 7 Materials used on the building will consist of face block on all four sides. The entries are proposed to have canopies. Accent bands and a cornice rap around the building. As mentioned earlier in the report, staff is not objecting to the design of the building, however, some similar buildings were recently approved by the City Council within the same business park and staff is recommending new architectural features be introduced to this building. GRADING In conjunction with the development of CLBP 7th, the developer will rough grade the building site. Only minor grading is anticipated on the lot for the building and parking lot improvements after the project has been initially graded by the developer. There was no grading plan included with this submittal. Staff assumes that the grading plan will follow the grading plan submitted with the preliminary plat of CLBP 8th Addition. Prior to city council consideration of the site plan, the applicant shall supply the city with a final grading plan for review and approval. Erosion control measures (silt fencing, rock construction entrance) in accordance with the City's Best Management Practice Handbook shall be incorporated into the grading plan. DRAINAGE No utility plans for stormwater management was submitted. Again staff assumes that the drainage plans submitted by the developer for CLBP 8th will be adhered to with this site proposal. The runoff from the parking lots/building will be conveyed via storm sewers into a regional stormwater pond southeast of the site for pretreatment pursuant to the preliminary utility plans submitted CLBP 8th Addition. The storm sewer system on the site shall be privately constructed by the applicant and owned and maintained by the applicant upon completion. Detailed storm drainage calculations will be required to determine if there are sufficient catch basins being provided to convey surface water runoff from the site. The drainage calculations shall be for a 10 and 100-year, 24-hour storm event (rational method) shall be submitted to the City for review and approval at time of building permit application. UTILITIES Municipal sewer and water is not yet available to the site at this time. The developer has petitioned the City to construct the infrastructure and Lake Drive West (Project No. 98-16) this summer. The developer of CLBP 8th will be responsible for extending the utility and street improvements to the site from Lake Drive West. Installation of the private utilities throughout the site (i.e. storm sewer, sanitary sewer, water) will require permits and inspections through the Chanhassen Lakes Business Park 8th Addition July 7, 1999 Page 8 City's Building Department. All utility improvements shall be constructed in accordance with the city's latest edition of standard specifications and detail plates and/or state plumbing codes. There are existing sanitary sewer lines that extend through the site that may be impacted by this development. The applicant will be responsible for any adjustments to heights of the manhole structures as a result of site improvements. STREETS/PARKING Lake Drive West is proposed to be constructed this year by the City. The developer of CLBP 8th Addition will be responsible for constructing the street to access this site inconjunction with platting CLBP 8th Addition. The drive aisles and parking stalls appear to meet city codes. Staff recommends that the radius on the westerly curb line at the driveway entrance be expanded to a 20 foot radius to provide adequate turn movements for emergency vehicles. An industrial driveway apron will be provided by the developer of the plat. MISCELLANEOUS Site plan approval shall be contingent upon final plat approval for CLBP 8th Addition. Issuance of building permits within the plat should be a topic for discussion. The City requires that each site have a paved street access (7-ton design) prior to issuance of a building permit. In addition, the utility improvements designated to service the site will need to be installed, tested, and accepted by the City prior to issuance of a building permit. The City in the past has typically issued one building permit adjacent to a hard surfaced street to each subdivision. There have also been situations in the past where the City issued up to four residential building permits as long as they were easily accessed from a paved street (within 150 feet) and if the City's fire marshal's concerns are addressed. Given the timetable of this development (CLBP 7th Addition) and the City's improvement project for Lake Drive West, it is doubtful that the required utility and street improvements will be completed prior to mid-November of 1999. Therefore, building permits may not be issued until sometime in November 1999 unless the applicant can meet the concerns of the City's Public Safety Dept. LANDSCAPING Minimum requirements for landscaping include 3,529 sq. ft. of landscaped area around the parking lot, 14 trees for the parking lot, and buffer yard plantings along the west property line. Applicant's proposed as compared to the requirements for landscape area and parking lot trees is shown in the following table. Chanhassen Lakes Business Park 8th Addition July 7, 1999 Page 9 Vehicular use landscape area Trees/parking lot West property line buffer yard B Required 3,529 sq. fi. 14 overstory 4 overstory trees 6 understory trees Proposed approx. 12,500 sq. fi. 5 overstory 1 overstory 12 understory (* 75% of total) 10 shrubs ? shrubs *According to city buffer yard ordinance, the project developer is responsible ibr only 75% of the required plantings. Abutting property owners may plant the remaining 25% on their property. The applicant is short 9 trees for the parking lot and overstory trees in the buffer yard area. Staff recommends the applicant increase plantings in order to meet ordinance requirements. Additionally, the landscape plan is vague and does not show shrub quantities, sod or seed limits, landscaping for the daycare play area, or a distinction between landscaped groundcovers or paving near the building. The applicant will need to submit a more detailed landscape plan for city approval. LIGHTING Lighting locations have not been illustrated on the plans. Only shielded fixtures are allowed as required by ordinance. A detailed lighting plan should be submitted. Street lights consistent with Lake Drive East and West will be at 200 feet intervals, staggered from one side to the other. SIGNAGE The applicant haS not submitted a signage plan. One ground Iow profile business sign is permitted per lot. The area of the sign may not exceed 80 square feet and a height of 8 feet. Also, one wall mounted sign per business shall be permitted per street frontage. The total display area shall not exceed 15% of the total area of the building wall upon which the signs are mounted. No sign may exceed 90 square feet. Staff is recommending the following criteria be adopted: All businesses shall share one monument sign per lot. Monument signage shall be subject to the monument standards in the sign ordinance. 2. Wall signs are permitted on no more that 2 street frontages. 3. All signs require a separate permit. The signage will have consistency throughout the development and add an architectural accent to the building. Chanhassen Lakes Business Park 8th Addition July 7, 1999 Page 10 5. Consistency in signage shall relate to color, size, materials, and heights. o No illuminated signs within the development may be viewed from the residential section south of the site. 7. Back-lit individual letter signs are permitted. o Only the name and logo of the business occupying the unit will be permitted on the sign. The applicant must obtain a sign permit prior to erecting the signs on site. One stop sign must be posted on the driveway at the exit point of both sites. A detailed sign plan incorporating the method of lighting, acceptable to staff should be provided prior to requesting a building permit. 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 changes 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: 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; Chanhassen Lakes Business Park 8th Addition July 7, 1999 Page 11 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 development is consistent with the comprehensive plan, the zoning ordinance, and the site plan review requirements. The site design is compatible with the surrounding development. It is functional and harmonious with the approved development for this area. Staff is recommending the introduction of some new architectural features. PARKING The city's parking ordinance requires 4.5 parking stalls per 1,000 square feet of office (23 stalls), one stall per 1,000 square feet of warehouse area (7 stalls) and one stall per 6 children of design capacity for the daycare (12 stalls). The ordinance requires a total of 42 parking spaces. The applicant is providing 63 spaces. CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT Day care centers are permitted in the IOP District as a conditional use.

Therefore, no additional grading is anticipated to occur with this proposal. Overall, the grading plans appear to be consistent with the final grading, drainage and erosion control plan approved with Chanhassen Lakes Business Center 7th Addition. UTILITIES Municipal water service is proposed to be extended to the plat in conjunction with the City's public improvement project for Lake Drive West, Project No. 98-15. Sanitary sewer and water service is proposed to be extended by the developer. Sanitary sewer service is proposed to be extended from the existing trunk interceptor lines located in the northeast corner of the site. Water service will be extended along the proposed street to the individual lots by the developer. Detailed construction plans and specifications in accordance with the City's latest edition of Standard Specifications and Detail Plates shall be submitted to the City for review and approval in conjunction with final plat approval. Construction plans and specifications need to be submitted a minimum of three weeks prior to final plat consideration. The developer will be required to enter into a development contract with the City and provide a financial security to guarantee installation of the public improvements and final plat conditions of approval. DRAINAGE The plans propose on extending a series of storm sewer lines to convey surface water runoff into the regional stormwater pond located on Outlot B. The developer will be constructing the storm sewer in the street to the stormwater pond. The pond will be constructed with Chanhassen Lakes Business Park 7th Addition improvements. , Ci~. qfChanhassen, A growing communiO, with clean [akes, quality schools, a charming downtown, thrivin~ businesses, and beautiful varks.

Sharmin A1-Jaff June 30, 1999 Page 2 Detailed stormwater drainage calculations for a 10-year and 100-year, 24-hour storm event shall be submitted to the City Engineer for review and approval prior to final plat consideration. STREETS The developer has petitioned the City to construct street and utility improvements for Lake Drive West in conjunction with the platting of Chanhassen Lakes Business Park 7th Addition. Lake Drive West is proposed to be constructed in accordance with the City's urban industrial street section which is a 9-ton road design, 36-foot wide face- to-face street section with boulevard street lighting and landscaping. An 8-foot wide bituminous trail will also be constructed along the northerly line of Lake Drive West. The plans are proposing to extend the short cul-de-sac street (public) off of Lake Drive West to service the lots within the plat. The appropriate amount of right-of-way is being dedicated with the plat for the public street. Staff does recommend that a 30- foot radius be designed into the cul-de-sac where the tangent street meets the cul-de- sac (southwest corner) to accommodate truck turning movements. The public street will need to be constructed by the developer as part of the overall development improvements. Boulevard lighting and sidewalks are to be included with the street improvements. The City roadway shall be built in accordance with the City's urban industrial street section which is a 36-foot wide, face-to-face, 9-ton road design. Detailed construction plans and specifications for this street will need to be submitted a minimum of three weeks prior to final plat consideration for City review and approval. The developer will need to name the cul-de-sac street prior to final plat approval. The street name shall be subject to the City Public Safety Department's approval to avoid duplication of City street names. In conjunction with the EAW for the Chanhassen Lakes Business Park 7th Addition, a traffic study for the proposal indicated that a future traffic signal may be warranted at the intersection of Lake Drive West and Powers Boulevard. As was recommended with the 7th Addition phase, the developer shall be required to escrow with the City a financial guarantee for its share based on traffic generated from the site of the local cost participation for a traffic signal at Lake Drive West and Powers Boulevard. The City's local participation costs of the traffic signal is not known at this time. Once the final traffic study is completed to address traffic-related issues as a result of this development, staff will be able to incorporate a methodology to determine the developer's share for a future traffic signal. A condition will be placed in the development contract accordingly. EROSION CONTROL Erosion control measures are proposed throughout the site.

Only minor grading is anticipated on the lot for the building and parking lot improvements after the project has been initially graded by the developer. There was no grading plan included with this submittal. Staff assumes that the grading plan will follow the grading plan submitted with the preliminary plat of CLBP 8th Addition. Prior to city council consideration of the site plan, the applicant shall supply the city with a final grading plan for review and approval. Erosion control measures (silt fencing, rock construction entrance) in accordance with the City's Best Management Practice Handbook shall be incorporated into the grading plan. DRAINAGE No utility plans for stormwater management was submitted. Again staff assumes that the drainage plans submitted by the developer for CLBP 8th will be adhered to with this site proposal. The runoff from the parking lots/building will be conveyed via storm sewers into a regional stormwater pond southeast of the site for pretreatment pursuant to the preliminary utility plans submitted CLBP 8th Addition. The storm sewer system on the site shall be privately constructed by the applicant and owned and maintained by the applicant upon completion. Detailed storm drainage calculations will be required to determine if there are sufficient catch basins being provided to convey surface water runoff from the site. The drainage calculations shall be for a 10 and 100-year, 24-hour storm event (rational method) shall be submitted to the City for review and approval at time of building permit application. The City of Chanhassen. A ~wwi,g communit3, with clea, lakes, ot~a/it~, sct~ooh, a cha,ni,g downtown, thrivin~ businesses, and beautifid ~arks. A ~reat O/ace to live, work, and pi Sharmin A1-Jaff Lots 3, Block 1, CLBP 8th July 1, 1999 Page 2 UTILITIES Municipal sewer and water is not yet available to the site at this time. The developer has petitioned the City to construct the infrastructure and Lake Drive West (Project No. 98-16) this summer. The developer of CLBP 8th will be responsible for extending the utility and street improvements to the site from Lake Drive West. Installation of the private utilities throughout the site (i.e. storm sewer, sanitary sewer, water) will require permits and inspections through the City's Building Department. All utility improvements shall be constructed in accordance with the city's latest edition of standard specifications and detail plates and/or state plumbing codes. There are existing sanitary sewer lines that extend through the site that may be impacted by this development. The applicant will be responsible for any adjustments to heights of the manhole structures as a result of site improvements. STREETS/PARKING Lake Drive West is proposed to be constructed this year by the City. The developer of CLBP 8th Addition will be responsible for constructing the street to access this site inconjunction with platting CLBP 8th Addition. The drive aisles and parking stalls appear to meet city codes. Staff recommends that the radius on the westerly curb line at the driveway entrance be expanded to a 20 foot radius to provide adequate turn movements for emergency vehicles. An industrial driveway apron will be provided by the developer of the plat. MISCELLANEOUS Site plan approval shall be contingent upon final plat approval for CLBP 8th Addition. Issuance of building permits within the plat should be a topic for discussion. The City requires that each site have a paved street access (7-ton design) prior to issuance of a building permit. In addition, the utility improvements designated to service the site will need to be installed, tested, and accepted by the City prior to issuance of a building permit. The City in the past has typically issued one building permit adjacent to a hard surfaced street to each subdivision. There have also been situations in the past where the City issued up to four residential building permits as long as they were easily accessed from a paved street (within 150 feet) and if the City's fire marshars concerns are addressed. Given the timetable of this development (CLBP 7th Addition) and the City's improvement project for Lake Drive West, it is doubtful that the required utility and street improvements will be completed prior to mid-November of 1999. Therefore, Sharmin A1-Jaff Lots 3, Block 1, CLBP 8th July 1, 1999 Page 3 building permits may not be issued until sometime in November 1999 unless the applicant can meet the concerns of the City's Public Safety Dept.

The proposed driveway access shall incorporate an industrial driveway apron and pedestrian ramps on the plans in accordance with City detail plate 5207 The applicant will need to provide financial security in the amount of $2,500 to guarantee the boulevard restoration, and erosion control measures. Security may be in the form of a letter of credit or cash escrow which will be returned upon satisfactorily completing the project.
