CHANHASSEN PLANNING DEPT
We are in receipt of your letter dated December 28, 2012 in regards to our project
located at 6300 Chaska Road. Your letter states our application is considered
incomplete. Please see the attached plan set addressing your concerns of the
following items:
1. The revised grading plan sheet 5 of 8 contains the requested grading
information for each lot. Our engineer spoke with Joe Shamla regarding
the pond location and the current location has been approved by Joe.
Tree removal limits have been added to the grading plan.
2. This items states that lot 1 is not a viable lot and refers to section 18 -60
(j) of the city code:
"Proposed house sizes shall be shown on the subdivision plan and shall be
designed to accommodate residents' future house expansion (e.g., porches) and
accessory structures (e.g., decks and patios) as well as the driveway and
sidewalks to building entrances. If house plans are not known, then a 60 foot by
60 foot building pad and a 30 -foot wide access driveway shall be used. The
maximum permitted impervious surface shall be calculated for each lot and the
permitted houses and structures shall be limited to those sizes."
We meet the above - mentioned section of the code as our proposed house
is shown on the subdivision plan; the plans are attached for your review.
This section of code states you only need the 60'x 60' building pad if the
house plans are not known
3. See page 3 of 8 for the updated lot requirement table.
4. See page 3 of 8 for the lot area tabulation.
