Washta Bay Court Open House Postcard MailingCITY OF CHANHASSEN
RESIDENTIAL PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT (PUD -R) OPEN HOUSE FOR
Washta Bay Court
Tuesday, May 31, 2012, 6 -7 pm, Thornton Wilder Room
Chanhassen Library
7711 Kerber Boulevard
Dear Property Owner:
City staff would like to invite you to an open house to discuss a proposed amendment to the zoning on your property. Over the
past year, staff has been investigating the approximately 50 Residential Planned Unit Developments (PUD -R) throughout the City.
Staff has discovered the following after researching the different projects:
• The more recent ordinances reference the underlying zoning districts; however, they may not adequately reference the
Chanhassen City Code.
• The PUD subdivisions created in the 1980's and early 1990's reference the Design Standards as part of the Development
Contract, rather than with the adoption of the Design Standards in the PUD Ordinance.
• Prior to 1980 no design standards or development contracts exist. Rather the project references a development plan.
• During the 1970's, any Residential Single - Family development exceeding 25 lots was required to be processed as a Planned
Residential Development, even if the development complied with all requirements of the standard zoning regulations.
The goal of the proposed amendments is to codify the developments as they exist today and to provide clarity as to the standards
for your neighborhood. The purpose of the open house is to allow you an opportunity to discuss the proposed changes with City
staff prior to this item going forward for the public hearing which is tentatively scheduled for the June 19, 2012 Planning
Commission meeting. City Council review and approval is tentatively scheduled for July 23, 2012. Your comments will be greatly
appreciated.
Additional information can be found on the City's web site at www.ci.chanhassen.mn.us/serv/plan/12-04-4.htmi. If you have any
questions or need additional information, please contact Sharmeen AI -Jaff, Senior Planner, at (952) 227 -1134 or by email at
