INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL
REPORTING AND ON COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS BASED ON AN
AUDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED IN ACCORDANCE WITH
GO VERNMENT A UDITING. STANDARDS
To the Honorable Mayor, Members of
the City Council and Management
City of Chanhassen, Minnesota
Wehave audited, in accordance with the auditing standards generally acceptedin the United
States of America and thestandards applicable to financial audits containedin Government
Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, the financial
statements of the governmental activities, the business -type activities, each majorfund and
theaggregate remaining fund information of the City of Chanhassen, Minnesota, as of and
for the year ended December 31, 2012, and the related notes tothe financial statements,
whichcollectively comprise the City of Chanhassen, Minnesota's basic financial statements
and have issued our report thereon dated May 21, 2013.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the City of
Chanhassen, Minnesota's internal control over financial reporting (internalcontrol) to
determine the audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for thepurpose of
expressing our opinions on the financial statements, butnot for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on the effectiveness of the City of Chanhassen, Minnesota's internal control.
Accordingly, we do not express an opinion onthe effectiveness of the City of Chanhassen,
Minnesota's internal control.
A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow
management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to
prevent, or detect and correct, misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a
deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control such that there is a reasonable
possibility that a material misstatement of the entity's financial statements will not be
prevented, or detected and corrected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency,
or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material
weakness, yetimportant enough to merit attentionby thosecharged with governance.
Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose describedin the first
paragraph of this section and was not designedto identify all deficiencies in internal control
that might be material weaknesses orsignificant deficiencies and therefore, material
weaknesses or significant deficiencies mayexist that were not identified. Given these

limitations, duringouraudit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control thatwe
consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses may exist that have not
been identified. We did identify a deficiency in internal control, described in the
accompanying schedule of findings and responses as item 2012 -1 that we considerto be a
significant deficiency.
Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the City of Chanhassen,
Minnesota's financial statements are free from material misstatement, we performed tests of
its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and grant agreements,
noncompliance withwhich could have a direct and material effect on the determination of
financial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those
provisions was not an objective of our audit and, and accordingly, we do not express such an
opinion. The results of our tests disclosed noinstances of noncompliance orother matters
that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards.
City of Chanhassen, Minnesota's Response to Findings
The City of Chanhassen, Minnesota's response to the finding identified in our audit is
described in the accompanying schedule of findings and responses. The City of Chanhassen,
Minnesota's response was not subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the
financial statements and, accordingly, we expressno opinion on it.
Purpose of this Report
The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and
compliance and the results of that testing, and notto provide an opinion on the effectiveness
of the entity's internal control or on compliance. Thisreport is an integral part of an audit
performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the entity's
internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any
other purpose.

SCHEDULE OF FINDINGS AND RESPONSES
For The Year Ended December 31, 2012
2012 -1 Financial Statement Corrections
Criteria: Audit standards specify that a correction of any magnitude that couldoccur and not be
detected by the City's controls be considered a deficiency in internal control.
Condition: Audit staff detected corrections relating to accrued interest payable and the timing of
revenue recognition on theTH101 Improvement project fromLyman Blvd toPioneer Trail.
Cause: In our viewpoint, the guidance provided by audit standards regarding financial
statement correctionscombined with the complexity of governmental accounting will result in
most local governments receiving a finding in this regard.
Effect: There is an increased risk that financial statement misstatementsmay occur.
Recommendation: We recommend City staff continue toattemptto appropriately record these
types of transactions.
Views of Responsible Officials and Corrective Action Plan: It is theintent of the City's staff to
minimize the number of audit adjustments neededeach year.

COMMUNICATION WITH THOSE CHARGED WITH GOVERNANCE
To the Honorable Mayor and
Members of the City Council
City of Chanhassen, Minnesota
We have audited the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-
type activities, each major fund and theaggregate remaining fund information of the City of
Chanhassen, Minnesota for the year ended December 31, 2012. Professional standards
require that we provide you with information about our responsibilities under generally
accepted auditing standardsand the standards applicable to financial audits contained in
Government Auditing Standards, as well as certain information related to the planning scope
and timing of our audit. We have communicated such information in our letter to you dated
January 15, 2013. Professional standards also require that we communicate to you the
following information related to our audit.
Significant Audit Results
Qualitative Aspects of Accounting Practices
Management is responsible for the selection and use of appropriateaccounting policies.
The significant accountingpolicies used by the City are described in Note 1 to the financial
statements. No new accounting policies wereadopted and the application of existingpolicies
was not changed during 2012. We noted no transactions entered into by the City during the
year forwhich there is a lack of authoritative guidanceor consensus. All significant
transactions have been recognized in the financial statements in the proper period.
Accounting estimates are an integral part of the financial statements prepared by
management and are based on management's knowledge and experience about past and
current events and assumptions about future events. Certainaccounting estimates are
particularly sensitive because of theirsignificance to the financial statementsand because of
the possibility thatfuture events affecting them may differ significantly from those expected.
The most sensitive estimate affecting the financial statements was management's estimate of
the portion of construction projects which will be capitalized. This estimate is based on
feasibility reports and estimates of the City Engineer. We evaluated the key factors and
assumptions used todevelop this estimate in determiningthat it is reasonable in relation to
the financial statements taken as a whole.
The financial statement disclosures are neutral, consistent and clear.

Difficulties Encountered in Performing the Audit
Weencountered no difficulties in dealing with management in performing and
completing our audit.
Corrected and Uncorrected Misstatements
Professional standards require us to accumulate all known and likely misstatements
identified during the audit, other thanthose that are clearly trivial, and communicate them to
the appropriate level of management. We identified one known uncorrectedmisstatement of
the financial statements:
Certain bond discounts and issuance costs are not amortized over the life of the bond,
but instead are recorded during the yearin which the bond was sold. As a result,
assets and net assets of the business -type activities are understated by $63,000 at
December 31, 2012.
Management has determined that the effects of theabove misstatement are immaterial,
both individually and in the aggregate, to the financial statements taken as a whole. We
agree with that conclusion.
Management also corrected a $342,000 material misstatement relating to the timing of
revenue recognition. This amount was originally recorded as revenue when received, but
was reclassified as unearned revenue. In the future, these funds will be recognized as
revenueonce corresponding expenditures are incurred. One additionalimmaterial
adjustmentto accrued interestpayable was also recorded.
Disagreements with Management
For purposes of this letter, a disagreement with management is a financial accounting,
reporting, or auditing matter, whether or notresolvedto our satisfaction, that could be
significant to the financial statements or the auditor's report. We are pleased to report that no
such disagreements arose during the course of our audit.
Management Representations
We have requested certain representations from management that are included in the
managementrepresentation letter dated May 21, 2013.
ManagementConsultations with Other IndependentAccountants
In some cases, management may decide toconsult with other accountants about auditing
and accounting matters, similar to obtaining a "second opinion" on certain situations. If a
consultationinvolvesapplication of an accounting principle to the City's financial statements
or a determination of the type of auditor's opinion thatmay beexpressedon those statements,
ourprofessional standards require the consulting accountant to check with us todetermine
City of Chanhassen, Minnesota
Communication With ThoseCharged With Governance
Page 3
that the consultant has all the relevant facts. Toour knowledge, therewere no such
consultations with other accountants.
Other Audit Findings or Issues
We generally discuss a variety of matters, including the application of accounting
principles and auditing standards, with management each year prior to retention as the City's
auditors. However, these discussions occurred in the normal course of our professional
relationship and our responses were not a condition to our retention.
ImprovementRefunding Bonds, Series 2009A
The payment schedule of 2009A bonds includes a $3,515,000 principal payment on
February 1, 2014. The improvements funded by this bond issue included parcels that are
expected to be developed in the future. The financing plan anticipates a special assessment
prepayment related to these parcels to be collected in 2013to fund the February 1, 2014
principal payment. At December 31, 2012 the relateddebt service fund had a cash balance of
2,119,000. We recommend the City monitor the status of these parcels and determine an
action plan in the event the special assessments are not collected inthe anticipated
timeframe.
Sewer Charges
Audit procedures found one customer who was incorrectlybilled both residential and
commercial sewer charges. City staff determined the customer was overbilled $9,572.57
during the period June 30, 2006 toOctober 31, 2012. The customer was issued a refund to
their account in the form of a credit. According to City staff, a search was performedafter
the overbilling was identified andno additional duplicate billings were found.
Other Matters
With respect to the supplementary information accompanying the financial statements,
we made certain inquiries of management and evaluated the form, content, and methods of
preparing the informationto determine that the information complies with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the method of preparing it has
not changed from the prior period, and the information is appropriate and complete in
relation to our audit of the financial statements. We compared and reconciled the
supplementary information to the underlying accounting records used to prepare the financial
statements or to the financial statements themselves. We also read the other information
accompanying the financial statementsand did not identify any material inconsistencies
between the other information and the audited financial statements.

property to redevelop the Sinclair property in to an 8,000 square foot, three tenant retail building ,

VISITOR PRESENTATIONS.
Mayor Furlong: If you ’d like to address the council under visitor presentations, I ask that you come
forward to the podium at this time. Mr. Simich, sure. Hint, hint.
Len Simich: Thank you Mayor, members of the council. My name is Len Simich. I ’m CEO with
Southwest Transit. I ’m here tonight to talk just briefly about a summer promotion that we ’re going to be
running here in the city of Chanhassen. It ’s our 692E or our Chanhassen Circulator as we call it. Really
this gives us an opportunity, or the residents of Chanhassen an opportunity to give us a test run. It ’s just a
downtown circulator. It will tie our ramp that is located right behind the Dinner Theater to the businesses
south of Highway 5 and then come back up through the heart of the downtown. This will run roughly
from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. We are running service on the Thursday, the Buy Chanhassen night as well.
The fares, we ’re going to be running a special fare. A 50 cent fare and that actually gets you to ride for 3
hours so you can get on and off during that time so it ’s a good opportunity to connect the businesses on
both sides of Highway 5. We ’ll probably be using our trolley for the majority of the runs so that ’s a
novelty in itself. A lot of people like to just get out and ride that vehicle so we ’re very pleased to have the
opportunity to do that this summer.
Mayor Furlong: Thank you. Any questions for Mr. Simich? A quick question Len. I see the stops here
and the stated times of the different routes. I know for example, it looks like it ’s coming through the
Summerwood development and there ’s a bus stop there near Foss Swim School and St. Hubert ’s Church.
Chanhassen City Council – May 28, 2013

If somebody was there and wanted to pick up the bus, would they be able to pick it up as they ’re coming
down or are the stops restricted to the listed stops?
Len Simich: Mr. Mayor, no. The stops are not restricted. In fact we will stop at any safe location just by
waving the bus over.
Mayor Furlong: Okay.
Len Simich: Designated stops are great but anywhere along that route and we ’ll pick you up.
Mayor Furlong: So, and I see one of the stops is near Target and Byerly ’s so people living in
Summerwood want to take the bus over, you say within a 3 hour period, getting back on the bus and pay
one fare.
Len Simich: Right, one fare.
Mayor Furlong: Okay, very good. Thank you. Great, thanks for giving us the update. Look forward to
seeing how it works.
Len Simich: You bet. Thank you.
Mayor Furlong: This evening we do have a representative, Mr. David Esposito with Retail Market
Manager with KleinBank here this evening. Each summer residents at City Center Park come out to
enjoy the outdoor concert that ’s been sponsored for the last 6 years by KleinBank and we appreciate their
sponsorship for this event which provides the City the opportunity to provide these free concerts for
residents and visitors so, Mr. Esposito, am I pronouncing it right?
David Esposito: Esposito, yes. Close enough. It ’s Italian. It ’s hard to know.
Mayor Furlong: Esposito, thank you. It really wasn ’t but Esposito, thank you. Thank you for
KleinBank ’s sponsorship of these Summer Concert Series, as Mr. McDonald said. It is a very significant
contribution that you make and we appreciate it each and every year and looking forward to having it
again this year.
David Esposito: Thank you. Mr. Mayor, members of the council, my name ’s David Esposito. Retail
Market Manager for KleinBank and on behalf of KleinBank and our nearly 400 team members I want to
thank you for this very generous opportunity to allow us to be a sponsor for the Summer Concert Series.
As one of our core values within KleinBank it ’s strengthening our community by giving our time, talent
and resources back to our communities and it ’s one of those cores of what makes KleinBank a great part
of our community and so we look forward to our participation in the Summer Concert Series. I know that
all of our family members and team members alike love being a part of the event. It ’s every Thursday
between June 13 th and August 8 th so with that I ’d like to present you with a check in the amount of $2,000
to the City of Chanhassen.
Mayor Furlong: Thanks so much.
David Esposito: Thank you very much. We appreciate it.
Mayor Furlong: Well it doesn ’t fit through the drive thru.
Todd Hoffman: We ’ve got a little one.

Mayor Furlong: Do we? Okay. The one that counts. Well thank you. Mr. McDonald, any additional
thoughts or comments?
Councilman McDonald: I just wanted to make sure everybody was aware of what Klein does and I think
it adds a lot to the downtown area, especially of an evening. You know it gives people something to relax
and again come downtown and I just want to make sure Klein got credit for doing that again this year.
Mayor Furlong: Perfect, t hank you. Anyone else for visitor presentations? If not we ’ll continue on with
the other items under our agenda.
LAW ENFORCEMENT/FIRE DEPARTMENT UPDATE.
Mayor Furlong: Lieutenant Enevold, Jeff Enevold is here with the Carver County Sheriff ’s Office. Good
evening Lieutenant.
Lt. Jeff Enevold: Good evening Mr. Mayor and council. I have a short power point presentation for you
tonight. We ’ve talked a lot about crimes of opportunity over the past few years here and looking at the
stats from this year to this month, I think our education campaign is starting to pay off so what I ’d like to
do is just kind of review a few things that we ’ve done. We ’ve talked about it at City Council meetings.
We ’ve talked about it at National Night Out. I ’ve gone to senior meetings. Public safety seminars.
We ’ve talked about the Citizens Academy. Crime alerts have been sent out. We ’ve done extra patrol and
we ’ve done door hangers on open garage doors in the neighborhoods and our goal here at the bottom was
to reduce opportunities and reduce the number of thefts. We ’ve asked the public to help us reduce crimes
by removing valuables from their vehicles. If they can ’t do that, lock them in their trunks. Call 911 is
you see anything suspicious in your neighborhood or business. Some of the common items we ’ve talked
about, iPods, iPads, purses, wallets. Please get those out of your vehicles and we talked about building a
partnership in the community to help us be successful in fighting crime, and this particular quote here, I
was building this power point presentation and on my internet home page there ’s t hese daily quotes that
come up and this one came up as I was building it so I thought it fit really well in this presentation. It
talks about coming together is a beginning, keeping together is progress, working together is success, and
I think you ’ll see that in the next slide that we ’ve created some success working together with the
community and public safety. Theft statistics. Year to date thefts in 2012, we had 84 total thefts. 19 of
those thefts were from vehicles. Year to date this year 2013, we had 47 total thefts and only 6 of those
thefts were from vehicles. We had a 44% reduction in thefts and a 70% reduction in thefts from vehicles
so I think you know our education campaign is working well for us. Community involvement. May 8 th
we helped the Chanhassen Elementary kids across the street along with the fire department and the CSO
to get into Miracles for Mitch. You can see we got them across there safely and back safely and you can
see in the bottom right hand corner some of the items that they delivered to Miracles for Mitch and one
thing that I did, as the kids were returning to school that I probably won ’t do next year. I started giving
them a high five and saying thank you. Well each kid who gave me a high five had to try and you know
do it harder than the next kid so by the end of that my hand was numb so next year I learned a lesson. I
probably won ’t do that.
Mayor Furlong: Just wave.
Audience: Or send somebody else.
Lt. Jeff Enevold: I like that delegate. We also completed our Citizens Academy, last week Tuesday. It
ran from April 2 nd to May 21 st . Just a few action shots there. You can see in the upper left that ’s
Stephanie. She ’s shooting at the bad guy. Shooting a taser at the bad guy down there in the senior center.
Chanhassen City Council – May 28, 2013

We also went to the public works facility and did some DWI training. You can see Judy with the DWI
goggles on there, and they really enjoyed that. We also were honored to have the Mayor and the Sheriff
attend our graduation ceremony. 14 students graduated and all of them received a, here ’s the group that
graduated. Received a certificate, a citizens coin and a shirt. Citizens Academy shirt. At the end of each
one of these I send out a survey and ask for some feedback to see how we can improve the Citizens
Academy. I ’ll just share some of the comments that were shared on the survey. Said very valuable
experience. More aware of how the community works and feel more comfortable asking for help. Great
job, highly recommend to others. Job well done. Great to learn what law enforcement does and how we
can help. Outstanding experience. I got a small glimpse of the challenges and obstacles you face every
day. This was a great experience. Eye opening and you had great instructors, and we really did have
some great instructors. Beth Hoiseth was part of that. We got some deputies come in. Some of our crime
techs. We had the reserves help us. School resource officer and George Pufahl. Sergeant George Pufahl
is not here tonight but he really helped out with this. And of course none of this would be possible
without the support of the council so I want to say thanks for your support of this program. I think it ’s a
great community outreach program and it ’s going to strengthen our partnership with our community so
thank you. And with that, that ’s my presentation. Any questions?
Mayor Furlong: Any questions for the Lieutenant? Okay, great. No, very good and thank you for your
continued efforts on the Citizens Academy.
Lt. Jeff Enevold: Yeah, I think it ’s great.
Mayor Furlong: When do you anticipate having the next one? Has that been, now that you ’re done for
all of one week.
Lt. Jeff Enevold: I ’m thinking probably in the fall again. September-October will probably be the next
one.
Mayor Furlong: Okay, so if people watching at interested and .
Lt. Jeff Enevold: Keeping it on the website.
Mayor Furlong: Okay.
Lt. Jeff Enevold: Yep, and we ’ll probably advertise it through the paper.
Mayor Furlong: Okay, very good.
Lt. Jeff Enevold: Thanks Mr. Mayor.
Mayor Furlong: Thank you. Chief Wolff is here this evening with the fire department. Good evening
Chief.
Chief John Wolff: Good evening Mayor and council. Yesterday we partnered with the American Legion,
as we do every year and we escort them to the three grave sites in town and they conduct a brief
ceremony at each of those grave sites and that ’s something I really personally enjoy attending and being a
part of. It ’s kind of humbling to, you know I ’ve gotten to know some of these men and actually some of
them are former fire fighters and these are, there are still a few World War II vets in this group and it ’s
amazing how they, they get up and down our trucks and climb up and do their thing and so forth so just a
great thing that we get to do each year so. Another kind of fun thing that I ’d like to chat quickly about is,
Todd recognized a 40 year member of the Chanhassen Fire Department a few weeks ago, Mark Littfin on
Chanhassen City Council – May 28, 2013
6
May 10 th . Was recognized right in this room with a bunch of city employees. We had at our banquet the
week before had also recognized Mark so he ’s 25 years as a full time fire marshal here in the city which is
also a milestone this year and a 40 year member, and he still gets up at 3:00 a.m. for those midnight or
late night calls so we really appreciate Mark ’s service. As you know Dale retired and he was our
Battalion Chief and we replaced Dale with John Murphy who was a Captain. 21 year member and John,
we ’re excited to have John in that role. He was recently promoted to that position. We ’ve got 4
probationary fire fighters that will finish their one year probation at the beginning of next month on July
8 th at the annual Black Hat Ceremony. It ’s Monday, July 8 th at 7:00 at our main station. All are invited.
Year to date on calls. We ’re up about 40% from last year but last year we were really down so we ’re
probably a little over the average. Maybe single digit. Low single digit percentage so kind of on pace,
and I think a month ago I was talking about fire danger, with all, it was so dry and I think we caught up
really, really quickly. I wished we ’d stop catching up at this point though. I ’m ready for summer so,
we ’ve got a great recruit class in. Probably the best one we ’ve ever had and so we ’re excited about
bringing on some new folks too so take any questions if you have any.
Mayor Furlong: Great, any questions for Chief Wolff? No? Thank you again for the service the fire
fighters do and the department does with the American Legion for Memorial Day, we appreciate that.
Chief John Wolff: You bet, thank you.
BLUFF CREEK GARDENS: REQUEST FOR AN AMENDMENT TO INTERIM USE PERMIT
96-2 TO ALLOW FOR A LOT LINE ADJUS TMENT PER SECTION 20-233(C) OF THE
CHANHASSEN CITY CODE ON PROPERTY ZONED AGRICULTURAL ESTATE (A-2);
LOCATED AT 850 FLYING CLOUD DRIVE; APPLICANT: SKIP COOK.
Mayor Furlong: Let ’s start with a staff report please.
Kate Aanenson: Thank you Mayor, members of the City Council. This item appeared before the
Planning Commission on May 21 st and they did recommend approval of the request. Again the applicant
is requesting an Interim Use, amendment to the Interim Use Permit to allow for a lot line adjustment.
Typically a lot line amendment, when it ’s not a subdivision can be done administratively but we altered or
made amendments to the City Code a few years ago when we found it was problematic when we had a
conditional use and someone was allowed to alter their lines and it may impact the standards of that
conditional use or the interim use so for that reason, for the lot line adjustment to go forward we need to
amend the Interim Use so it remains consistent with the parcel. So the subject site is at the bottom of the
Y. Flying Cloud Drive, County Road 61 and 101. There ’s a garden center there currently and the
property owner also owns the house behind in this area here. So the entire parcel is 10 acres. The
resulting parcel with this split would then be 8.3 acres and I ’ll go through that in just a minute here. Just
wanted again to kind of frame up where this property is. This property is all agricultural right now so
again we do provide conditional uses and interim uses in this area where we have no municipal services to
allow some reasonable use of the property. For e xample across the street we had the driving range and in
this particular instance we do allow the agricultural landscaping businesses on the conditional use. In
looking at the future of this area, the property again is in the black circle there is guided for office park
and office also to, along County Road 61 as we look at the new river crossing, the upgraded 61. We also
have office then to the east of 101 and then further to the west along the city limits it would be high
density residential. As you know with the County upgrade the City Engineer and myself are also looking
at kind of how, and the Planning Commission and also the Council, how these properties would be
developed in the future and providing additional access so in reviewing this application we wanted to
make sure that we weren ’t jeopardizing any of those future access points to allow for development. I just
want to point out too that we did put a stall on their potential commercial. We didn ’t specifically a site
but we ’d evaluate that in the future as we move forward as we talk about maybe some support
Chanhassen City Council – May 28, 2013
7
commercial somewhere down in that area depending upon how it all aligns up. I think this is kind of
serendipity. It looks like it ’s right where the round about may be. So this is how the property currently is
being used and the Interim Use there were specific identifying how this property would be used so Area 4
is actually the area that ’s going to be split and joined from the Interim Use Permit. So they identified
Areas 1 and 2 again with the Interim Use, how they ’d be used. 3 would just be for the storage and then 4
would be kind of the, was really to be added to planting. To provide screening to that house to the north.
So this is approximately where that lot line would go. Kind of creating that new lot so the interim use
then would just be the rest of the 8.3 acre parcel. Again this could have gone forward without any
approvals but for the fact of the Interim Use so this property now is not part of that landscaping business
so it changes that from the 10 acre parcel then to the 8.3. So with that the Planning Commission did
recommend approval. We did have some conditions of approval. There are 3 on there but we are
supporting this, as did the Planning Commission so we ’re recommending that you approve it and I ’d be
happy to answer any questions you may have.
Mayor Furlong: Thank you. Any questions for staff? Seeing none, is there any comments or thoughts
from council members? Mr. McDonald.
Councilman McDonald: No, I have none.
Mayor Furlong: Oh I ’m looking at Mr. Laufenburger hitting his button and I said your name. I
apologize. Mr. Laufenburger.
Councilman Laufenburger: See how much sway you have on this council Mr. McDonald. It seems very
appropriate. I congratulate the staff for doing the work to make this happen. I have no questions and I
would support it.
Mayor Furlong: Thank you. Any other thoughts? Obviously there are, as Ms. Aanenson mentioned, the
work that the County and MnDOT are doing with the upgrade of the river crossing and County Road 61
goes right by this property so it ’s nice that we, while this is coming forward now, obviously to my
knowledge it doesn ’t effect any of the street improvement projects or any of the design work that ’s taken
place there.
Kate Aanenson: No, and we want to make sure that both parcels had continued access so we don ’t have
to buy somebody out for taking an access point and typically we don ’t like, while it ’s agricultural, one is a
conditional use. The home to the back, although it looks like there ’s some quasi type of uses on there so
ultimately when we come down with urban services we ’d certainly see this area being developed.
Mayor Furlong: Redeveloped.
Kate Aanenson: To a higher and better use.
Mayor Furlong: Yep, understand. Okay. If there are no other comments, would somebody like to make
a motion?
Councilwoman Ernst: Sure I ’ll move.
Mayor Furlong: Could you bring the motion back up on the screen?
Kate Aanenson: Yep.
Mayor Furlong: Thank you. Councilwoman Ernst.
Chanhassen City Council – May 28, 2013

Councilwoman Ernst: I make a motion that City Council approve amendment to the Interim Use Permit

Mayor Furlong: Motion ’s been made and seconded. Any discussion on the motion? Hearing none we ’ll
proceed with the vote.

the amendment to Interim Use Permit 96-2 to allow for a lot line adjustment subject to the

COUNCIL PRESENTATIONS:
Mayor Furlong: I ’d like to start, oh I ’m sorry. Councilwoman Ernst, do you have something?
Councilwoman Ernst: No, I was just going to talk about Memorial Day and the event that we had.
Mayor Furlong: Thank you.
Councilwoman Ernst: You know every year I go to this event. I keep thinking it can ’t get any better but
this year it was just phenomenal and I applaud Todd Hoffman and his team and the Legion and everyone
that was involved because it was just a phenomenal event.
Mayor Furlong: Thank you. Any other council presentations? It was a good event. Well attended. We
went through about 2 or 3 seasons during the event with the weather but it was well attended. It was great
to, as Chief Wolff said, great to see many of the veterans who have been in these events for a long, long
time but they ’re still there and they ’re still participating and it ’s good to see so.
Councilwoman Ernst: And weather even held out.
Mayor Furlong: The weather held out. I think we had the best hour and a half of the day yesterday from
about 1l:30 to 1:00 so it worked out great.
Todd Gerhardt: The mayor was in charge of weather on Memorial Day and I was in charge of it on Arbor
Day.

precision. It really is beautiful.
Todd Gerhardt: Well it ’s a great tradition. I mean we didn ’t have it up until a few years ago and to have
that kind of attendance and what a great way to memorialize those individuals that served our country.
Thank Todd and his staff, the Legion, fire department for helping out. What a great day.
Mayor Furlong: Any other council presentations?
ADMINISTRATIVE PRESENTATIONS:
Todd Gerhardt: Well I ’d like to say our road projects are moving along swiftly but since our Chief
wanted to have more rainfall, that ’s kind of put a damper on our road projects. We can do some mulching
and clearing and that ’s about it. Some soil correction has gone on on 101 but we do have a slow start but
we ’ll get it done on time and on budget so.
Mayor Furlong: Thank you. Any questions?

applicants, Chuck and Sandy Worm , explained their need for more storage. Chairman Aller opened the
public hearing. Marty Schutrop , who lives just south of the Worm ’s, explained that he never understood
this ordinance and why the City won ’t allow people who actually have acreage and want to have their
stuff enclosed instead of putting it outside. Gary Benziek, 731 West 96 th Street explained why he
supports this request for additional hay storage. Chairman Aller closed the public hearing. After
discussion by commission members, the following motion was made.

PUBLIC HEARING:
BLUFF CREEK GARDENS: REQUEST FOR AN AMENDMENT TO INTERIM USE PERMIT
96-2 TO ALLOW FOR A LOT LINE ADJUSTMENT PER SECTION 20-233(C) OF THE
CHANHASSEN CITY CODE ON PROPERTY ZONED AGRICULTURAL ESTATE (A-2) AND
LOCATED AT 850 FLYING CLOUD DRIVE. APPLICANT: SKIP COOK, PLANNING CASE
2013-10.
Generous: Thank you Chairman Aller and commissioners. Bluff Creek Gardens is in for an amendment
to it ’s Interim Use Permit because the property owner would like to change the property line of the
development. Under City Code such changes require an amendment to any approvals that they have. The
applicant is Skip Cook. Again the reason for the amendment is due to the lot line adjustments. They ’re
reducing part of the property out of the development. The site is located at the northwest corner of
Highway 101 and Flying Cloud Drive. It ’s a unique shaped property. The new lot line will be an
adjustment of this lot line will come down 101 so that they ’ll have direct frontage onto the highway.
Right now they have an easement agreement to access their property. This area of the garden center will
be coming out of the project. The existing Interim Use Permit divided the site into four areas. Area 1 is
the retail and storage building site. Area 2 is the growth area where they have the nursery stock out in
that. Area 3 is for hard object stock such as rock and they have their bins for the mulch and things like
that. And then Area 4 was an overflow area as part of the overall development and it was for overflow
landscaping materials that they had and some equipment. This area has very little use within the
development. We are recommending approval of the amendment to allow the lot line change subject to
the existing restated and amended Interim Use Permit which is attached to the project and the additional
conditions in the staff report and adoption of the attached Findings of Fact and Recommendation. With
that I ’d be happy to answer any questions.
Aller: Any of the commissioners have any questions? I received the packet. The packet ’s a part of the
record. I don ’t have any questions.
Aanenson: Chairman Aller, if I may, just for some background. It ’s in the staff report but I want to make
sure for our new commissioners, we had made a code amendment a couple years ago where we had
conditional uses, interim uses, in certain circumstances people can subdivide if it ’s in agricultural zone
and it may have an interim use on it and because the State law allows you to subdivide a piece of
Chanhassen Planning Commission – May 21, 2013
2
property, but we wanted to make sure if it had an interim use or a conditional use on it, or even a lot line
moving that we would notify on that because it may affect the terms of the interim use so this would have
gone through the staff administratively but because of that new ordinance put in place, and really it ’s a
control point where someone may sell off a portion of it. They moved a property line. Sell off a portion
of that property that would affect the underlying conditions of that interim use. For an example on this
one, there ’s a lot of ways the lot line could have moved that would affect the functionality of that so we
just want to make sure that it worked for the interim use and it doesn ’t change the terms and conditions of
that so with that we are supporting that as Mr. Generous stated but I just wanted to make sure for the new
planning commissioners that was really the rational basis behind that.
Aller: Great. My understanding is that the landscape materials will be moved from Area 4 to 1 and 3.
Generous: And to the garden center site that remains after the approvals.
Aller: Any additional comments? Questions?
Weick: One question. Area 4 becomes just part of the small triangle then that the home is on, correct?
Generous: Right, part of the single family home.
Weick: So that becomes one lot.
Generous: One lot.
Weick: Okay.
Generous: In the future this area is guided for office use so we think when urban services become
available it will intensify the uses down on the property and they ’ll work together.
Weick: Thank you.
Aller: Alright. Any additional comments? Questions? Okay, is the applicant here? Would like to make
any comments. Presentation. Anything.
Skip Cook: Not at this point. I ’m here but …
Aller: We don ’t have any real questions based on the report so.
Skip Cook: Okay.
Aller: With that, okay. I ’ll entertain a motion or, any comments or questions? Oh, what I need to do is
open a public hearing so at this point, since we have public here, let ’s open a public hearing. Anyone
wishing to come forward, please do so. Everyone else must have read the report as well. Seeing no one
come forward, public hearing is closed. Comments. Questions. Motions. I ’ll entertain a motion.
Hokkanen: I ’ll make a motion.
Aller: Okay.

PUBLIC HEARING:
BLUFF CREEK WOODS: REQUEST TO REZONE 3.57 ACRES OF PROPERTY FROM
AGRICULTURAL ESTATE DISTRICT (A-2) TO SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT
(RSF); SUBDIVISION WITH VARIANCES FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF A PRIVATE
STREET AND USE OF A NECK LOT; AND A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT TO ALLOW
DEVELOPMENT WITHIN THE BLUFF CREEK OVERLAY DISTRICT. PROPERTY IS
LOCATED AT 7331 HAZELTINE BOULEVARD. APPLICANT: MARTIN SCHUTROP,
PLANNING CASE 2013-09.
Generous: Thank you Chairman Aller, commissioners. Bluff Creek Woods is, the applicant is Marty
Schutrop. It ’s a proposed development located at 7331 Hazeltine Boulevard. It ’s on the east side of
Highway 41, just across from Tanadoona Drive. The property ’s approximately 3 acres in size. The
request is to rezone the property from Agricultural Estate District to Single Family Residential District.
Subdivision approval with variances for the use of a neck lot and the construction of a private street and a
Conditional Use Permit to allow development within Bluff Creek Overlay District. The applicant is
proposing to divide the property into 3 buildable lots. The existing house would remain on the middle lot
and then there ’d be 2 new building sites. The most southerly portion of the site would be put into an
outlot status. As part of this the Bluff Creek Overlay District is being redefined. Under the existing
mapping system that we have it shows that the whole property is within the primary zone. However we
know that there is actually developable area and as part of the process the City is permitted with the
developer to look at the site and determine what would be an appropriate delineation for that primary
zone. The three green lots on here include 2 of the new building sites and existing single family home in
the middle I should note that I did hand out earlier, put in front of you an email that I received from Hal
Newel. He ’s opposed to this development because of the addition of traffic onto Highway 41. It ’s hard
to tell from his comment whether he thought that there would be two new driveways going on there or if
he ’s aware that we ’re forcing them to have a common access point out onto Highway 41 and that ’s part of
the reason for the variance because of the private street serving more than one property.
Aller: Just for the record we have received and read the email.
Generous: Okay. All the lots comply with the minimum requirements in the City ’s zoning ordinance.
The smallest one is 33,000 square feet which is about three-quarters of an acre and the other two are over
one acre in size. The most northerly, Lot 3 is the neck lot and that ’s any lot that does not have it ’s full
frontage on a public street. We wait until it gets back to the lot width hits 100 feet and then we have a
valid lot and that ’s where we establish the setback area from. As part of their application they did show a
plan for a private street. However staff in going out to the site and reviewing it was concerned that the
access to Lot 1 would require additional grading and take out some significant trees that are on the
Chanhassen Planning Commission – May 21, 2013
4
Highway 41 side of the development so what we are recommending is that at the current turn around,
hammer head area, that they extend that, you follow that alignment and extend that for access into this
property. That provides a turn around area right in this corner and it also will reduce the amount of
grading that they ’ll need to do to build a house on this one site. The use of the private street and the
creation of the neck lot are not mere inconveniences. It ’s due to the unique nature of this property
because of the angle of Highway 41, the most northerly lot becomes narrower at the street frontage but
then it widens up as you go back through the wetlands and the natural area behind it. Otherwise all the lot
lines are following, are at 90 degree angles to the roadway which is what our ordinance prefers that
development follow. The most southerly part is the Outlot A. This will be part of the primary zone.
There is a drainage swale system through here that runoff comes to the site and into the wetland complex
behind it which is the head waters for the Bluff Creek. The granting of the variance would not be
detrimental to the public welfare and it meets the intent of the subdivision and zoning ordinance as well as
the Comprehensive Plan. We believe it ’s justified in this instance for those two criteria. As part of the
realignment of the Bluff Creek Overlay District this orange area on the schematic shows what we will be
defined as the primary zone boundary. What ’s required under the ordinance is then a 40 foot setback
from that boundary for structures. What that will do is force Lot 1 and Lot 3 to move the housing sites
from where they put them preliminarily. However as you can see there ’s significant amount of buildable
area in both of those lots. Grading of the site will be, as each individual lot comes in they ’ll have their
own grading plan reviewed. We looked at some initial things to see that they could comply with our
driveway slope ordinance and look at the house placement for sewer and water services but they will have
their own plan. And utility services provided off of Highway 41. The applicant has provided a tree
inventory and tree removal plan. Their landscaping plan basically exceeds city requirements so they ’re
not required to provide any additional landscaping unless they remove additional trees on the Highway 41
side as part of the construction of the development. This area is served, there ’s a neighborhood park just
to the southeast of this and then to the north you have a regional park. As the driveway crosses a regional
trail that the City recently completed so it is adequately served by parks and recreation facilities. The
development will be paying two new fees for the new lots as they ’re built so staff is recommending
approval of the subdivision, rezoning subdivision with variances and conditional use permit subject to the
conditions of the staff report and adoption of the Findings of Fact and Recommendation attached to the
report. With that I ’d be happy to answer any questions.
Aller: What was the Department of Transportation ’s response on traffic?
Generous: They did not have a concern. They just said any alterations within their right-of-way will
need a permit.
Aller: Okay. So to go through that permit process as we move forward.
Generous: Yeah, for any alterations that they do within the right-of-way.
Aller: And then the Outlot A is non-buildable?
Generous: Non-buildable. If it ’s not donated to the City then it will be under a conservation easement so.
Aller: And then the water usage and runoff will be looked at as each building is located, placed and built.
Fauske: That ’s correct.
Aller: Okay. And then we have the one home location which will stay where it is, and then as a
condition, if we approve this, those properties will move forward out of those areas that you had
delineated as being green so they ’ll have to move those buildings from the spot they originally requested
Chanhassen Planning Commission – May 21, 2013
5
forward and the setback would be increased.
Generous: Right. They would have to comply with the setback based on the primary zone boundary.
Aller: I don ’t have any further questions. Anyone?
Weick: I do. Can you go back to the streets and access? I just don ’t understand what ’s existing and
what ’s new that ’s being proposed in this.
Aanenson: Bob make sure you show what ’s a trail up there too.
Generous: Yeah, this is the trail system that actually continues to the north. It ’s not shown on this plan.
This is the existing driveway.
Weick: Driveway, okay.
Generous: And it goes to service.
Fauske: That ’s the trail.
Generous: Or, the trail yeah comes right here but this is the driveway and it goes up to the house to the
north of it. And this is the existing driveway that services the house on this property and so this is the
turn around area that ’s in place and that ’s where we recommend that they align the driveway for the
property to the south through there.
Weick: Okay. Okay. Got it. That ’s all I had.
Aller: Great.
Hokkanen: I have a couple questions. So the existing house is staying in the middle, so two new houses
are going to be one on each side of the existing home that ’s there.
Generous: That ’s correct.
Hokkanen: Correct, so it ’s not 3 buildable lots. It ’s 2 plus an existing .
Generous: Yes.
Hokkanen: And then did the Department of Transportation have any say or across 41, when you ’re
coming south on 41 to turn left into these, into this private road, is there a, like when you come and you
turn into Lake Lucy off of 41. You turn into Longacres off of 41, they have a, what is that? You know
what I ’m talking about?
Fauske: A bypass.
Hokkanen: Bypass lane, yes. And up by the church they do as well. And there was only one home here
before. Do they have any concerns about that with more, because you can ’t have individual, they have a
home that was on 41 that had to change their driveway into Hillside Court a couple years ago from 41. Is
there any concern with the Department of Transportation on that?
Chanhassen Planning Commission – May 21, 2013
6
Fauske: The Department of Transportation did not provide any comments on limiting the access. The
point with this particular development is they ’re not proposing to construct a new access point onto
Highway 41. It ’s the addition of two homes that will ultimately access at that location. With regards to,
in the past your example on Hillside Court, in that example there was a development that could provide
an acceptable and appropriate access from a grading standpoint and from an access standpoint for that
particular prope rty. In this case, given the site constraints with the wetlands and the trees, the tree cover
on the site, there really is no other appropriate place to provide access and so that ’s why we ’re supporting
the proposed access as shown.
Hokkanen: Thank you.
Aller: Okay, good question. Okay, applicant wishing to step forward and make a.
Marty Schutrop: The only comment I have is that.
Aller: Could you please step up to the podium. Thank you.
Marty Schutrop: The only comment is, actually there ’s two people that access point.
Aanenson: I was going to say that too.
Marty Schutrop: Not just one currently so. And also we pretty much have complied with the Outlot A as
far as, I mean that ’s a huge amount of land that we ’ve pretty much donated to the City to make the other
two lots appropriately you know acceptable so.
Aller: Right.
Marty Schutrop: We ’ve you know conformed to everything the City has asked on that property so.
Aller: And of course there ’ll be hardscape requirements when it goes to permit that will have to be
fulfilled.
Marty Schutrop: Yeah, and I have to comply with all those obviously.
Aller: Right, and it sounds like your overstory trees and landscaping right now are fine.
Marty Schutrop: Yeah, and we ’re taking a minimal, minimal amount of trees out of the property just
because of how we laid out the lots too so.
Aller: Great, thank you. With that I ’ll open the public hearing. Any individual wishing to speak either
for or against the project, please step forward at this time. State your name and address for the record and
let us know what you think.
Bruce Geske: Hi, I ’m Bruce Geske. I ’m the neighbor right to the north and we only have a couple of
concerns. One being the drainage on the Lot 3. It ’s the driveway appears to be coming in over a current
culvert that ’s there and the drainage was never put in properly to begin with so the water has always been
on our neighbor ’s property and we ’re concerned that with the new driveway would we now have a lake in
our yard. That ’s our first concern. Our second concern obviously is the trail system in Chan. There ’s
been several near misses because people are confused of our turnoff being the entrance for Longacres and
they come flying in there and several families have had to scramble into the grass to avoid accidents so
that would be our only two concerns.
Chanhassen Planning Commission – May 21, 2013

Aller: Great.
Bruce Geske: Thanks.
Aller: Thank you. Comments on?
Fauske: With the comment with regards to drainage, we could certainly look at, and I apologize I don ’t
have a great scale to provide you some comfort but I ’m more than willing to talk to you after the meeting
if you ’re available to go over your concerns and show you the plan and we can talk a little bit more about
that and insure that the existing drainage patterns are met and create either an equal or better drainage
pattern that currently exists. And then with regards to the pedestrian , the pedestrian concerns, we can
certainly talk to our parks and rec director about that to see if there ’s something that can be done. You
know trail. See if we have some ideas. If the residents have some ideas, work with them to see if there ’s
something that can be done to help alleviate that situation.
Aller: Great. I don ’t, because it ’s a current access, that ’s really not going to be changed or modified
correct?
Fauske: Correct.
Aller: So really that ’s a concern that should be addressed in any event, whether this moves forward or not
so we ’d appreciate if that could be followed up on.
Fauske: Certainly.
Aanenson: If I may I think one of the things too the Fire Marshal mentioned too is addressing on that so
if we clearly put the address on a post or something on that end, even though they ’re private we still have
addressing for that and that would identify those 3, or those 4 houses. Their address there and try to
clarify what the purposes are. What ’s the road right-of-way. What ’s the trail and what those addresses
are.
Aller: How are they addressed now? Are they addressed on a post now or?
Aanenson: I ’m not sure how they ’re addressed now. We can find that out.
Aller: Maybe if there ’s nothing there, maybe that is the problem.
Aanenson: Correct. Right.
Aller: Great, thank you. Anyone else wishing to come forward, speaking for or against? Seeing no one
come forward, close the public hearing. Comments. Questions. I think it ’s great that the concern, the
water concern is being met. I know that the City has been in the past and will continue to be concerned
about drainage so I don ’t really foresee a problem with that.
Hokkanen: Actually it is a problem over there. I ’ve seen it personally so if they will address that issue
when it comes up. It never affected anybody before.
Aller: But now we ’ll be building a pad
Hokkanen: Right.
Chanhassen Planning Commission – May 21, 2013
8
Aller: So there ’ll be some modification over there. It ’ll be a good opportunity to look at the drainage.
Hokkanen: And even though the signage doesn ’t affect anything with the moving forward of this, there is
some confusion with the trail there and that driveway so maybe just, you know after the park and rec can
address that with a trail sign too or something.
Aller: Warning sign of some sort.
Hokkanen: Yeah, something.
Aller: Further comments, questions. Would anyone like to make a motion?
Withrow: I will. I move that the Chanhassen Planning Commission recommend the City Council
approve the rezoning preliminary plat with variances and a conditional use permit subject to conditions of
the staff report and adoption of the Findings of Fact and Recommendation.
Aller: I have a motion. Do I have a second?
Yusuf: I ’ll second it.
Aller: Having a motion and a second, any further discussion, questions or comments?

PUBLIC HEARING:
760 WEST 96 TH STREET: REQUEST FOR A VARIANCE FROM SECTION 20-904(A)(1) OF
THE CHANHASSEN CITY CODE TO CONSTRUCT AN ACCESSORY STRUCTURE IN
EXCESS OF 1,000 SQUARE FEET ON PROPERTY ZONED AGRICULTURAL ESTATE
DISTRICT (A-2) AND LOCATED AT 760 WEST 96 TH STREET. APPLICANT: CHUCK
WORM, PLANNING CASE 2013-11.
Generous: Thank you Chairman Aller, commissioners. This application is a variance request to construct
an accessory structure in excess of 1,000 square feet. The applicant is Chuck Worm. The property is
located at 760 West 96 th Street. This is an area of larger lots in the community and they currently, this
property ’s, he owns two properties at the end of this West 96 th Street. On the most westerly one there ’s a
10,000 square foot storage building and some fields and pasture lands and riding areas and then his house
is on the property to the east with additional, I believe the stables are on that location. The variance is to
construct a 7,120 square foot accessory structure for the storage of hay and agricultural equipment. There
currently exists on the property 10,240 square foot accessory building. An additional 9,960 square feet of
accessory structures are on their house site so there ’s a total accessory structure of 20,912 square feet.
Part of staff ’s concern with this is the creation of these large accessory structures in an area that at some
time in the future will be converting to single family housing on smaller or more suburban style lots when
urban services become available. In May of 2004 the City approved an Interim Use Permit to allow the
riding academy on the property. Annually they have to renew their stable permit to continue the use of
that for horses. In researching this property for this development we did discover that there was a
contracting business associated with the property and our concern is that the existing accessory building is
being used in conjunction with that instead of or in addition to the existing agricultural use. Equipment
and hay storage on the site so part of our concern is that they ’re not utilizing the building in the
appropriate way for the zoning district. There have been other variances in the neighborhoods for
accessory structures in excess of 1,000 square feet. Within the last 2 years there were two. One for an
1,800 square foot accessory structure and one for a 2,560 square foot accessory structure. This property is
at the end of the street where those are all located. Then in 2007 there was a variance for an accessory
structure off of Homestead Lane which is a large lot development area. The person wanted to expand
Chanhassen Planning Commission – May 21, 2013
11
their garage and they had been planning this and so they did receive approval. Historically we have been
looking at the 1,000 square foot accessory structure exceeding that for legitimate agricultural uses and so
we ’ve had some barns and stables that have been approved for variances in other locations in the
community. This neighborhood is full of accessory structures in excess of 1,000 square feet. They range
from 2,000 square feet to 13,500 square feet of accessory structures. We ’re creating a little conclave of
these large accessory structures in the community. We want the Planning Commission to be aware that if
this is approved that they will have added to that area. Staff is recommending that the Planning
Commission as the Board of Appeals and Adjustments deny the variance and adopt the attached Findings
of Fact and Decision. And the attached Findings of Facts, I did provide you with a revised ones. The
City Attorney discussed this and he wanted us to change Finding B and D and I ’ll just read the new
language that we added in there. Under Finding B we added, the addition of a 7,120 square foot shed is
not reasonable since there is currently a sufficiently large shed that can be used for equipment and hay
storage were it ’s use limited to those that are permitted under district regulations. The property owner is
using the current storage capacity of the building in a manner not permitted by the zoning ordinance. And
then under D we added on the second sentence there, no circumstances unique to the property that
preclude it ’s agricultural use. And then at the last sentence we added, were all non-agricultural uses
remove d from the existing shed , there exists a sufficiently large shed that can be used for equipment and
hay storage. With that I ’d be happy to answer any questions.
Aller: Bob in looking at this, if I ’m remembering correctly, and I know I voted against both of the other
variances in the last few years. One was the result of, it actually had a building permit taken out and then
was not, they weren ’t able to complete the structure, the garage structure and then they came back. That
was one of them.
Generous: Well they came in for a permit and they wanted to expand the accessory structure and we said
no, you can ’t do that. You need a variance.
Aller: But before that they had built basically a pad already for the structure.
Generous: Yeah, they had a large area.
Aller: And then financially they just couldn ’t complete it and then time passed.
Generous: Right.
Aller: And they came back to complete it.
Generous: Yeah, the one guy had the intent of building this large structure and he didn ’t just have the
money at the time so he cleared out an area. Never came in for a permit but his intent was to do it and
then he came in and requested the variance.
Aller: Okay, and then the other one was for agricultural use?
Aanenson: No if I can clarify. The other one, the building was, it collapsed. Was existing non-
conforming and it had collapsed. He wanted to go larger.
Aller: Go larger.
Aanenson: To resolve some drainage issues.
Chanhassen Planning Commission – May 21, 2013
12
Aller: That was the second one, yeah. Okay. And then what ’s, what is the business that ’s currently
being associated with the property?
Generous: It ’s an excavating business. A contractor.
Aller: Okay, so that ’s not agricultural in nature.
Generous: No.
Aller: Okay.
Generous: Unless you ’re tiling.
Aller: And if this is approved, that would make this the largest square footage.
Generous: Yeah. Accessory structure in that neighborhood, correct. I should note that we did provide an
alternative if the Board were to approve the variance that they add the 6 conditions, which are outlined in
the staff report. Plus we ’d need to come up with additional Findings of Fact and Decision for them.
Aller: I don ’t have any further questions. Anyone? Questions of staff and then the applicant would have
the ability to come forward and you can ask questions of him too.
Withrow: Just a point of clarification. The proposed accessory building would not be the largest in that
area? Is that, was that?
Aller: No, it ’s the largest in the amount of square foot total for accessory structures.
Aanenson: Cumulative.
Withrow: On that property?
Aller: On that property as opposed to all the other properties.
Withrow: Okay, fair enough. And then what about having accessory buildings on the property makes it
difficult to meet the future planning?
Aanenson: Well if you look at this over time , you know the City in their Comprehensive Plan has said
we ’re not going to be agricultural in the long run down the city so when you put a building of this size in
there, over time as the city changes use, there will be development immediately to the west of this, you
have a conflict there if someone, because someone were to buy that property in the future, the current
owner were to sell, the desire then would be to use it for, if they didn ’t want to use it for a riding stable.
Would want to use it for some other type of, maybe someone would want to use it for storage but
somebody might want to use it for something else. For the same reason the city eliminated contractor ’s
yards. They did allow contractor ’s yards in the southern part of the city for conditional use and interim
use and we ’ve slowly over time eliminated those. As we ’ve become more urbanized there ’s a lot of
conflict with those. That ’s our number one complaint in the city is contractor ’s yards adjacent to
residential areas where you have people coming in down a residential street and people working. Now
everybody in this neighborhood has that type of use. There ’s a different tolerance level out there. I don ’t
want to dismiss that. People tend to know what ’s in that neighborhood but over time those tend to be,
they don ’t go away. Those size buildings.
Chanhassen Planning Commission – May 21, 2013
13
Withrow: Okay.
Aanenson: So that ’s our concern and that ’s what we ’re trying to raise to you tonight. However you vote
on that is just to keep that in mind.
Withrow: Thank you.
Aller: And I believe it was, was it in 2005 that we started limiting the accessory structure sizes in the
agricultural, and only allowing for agricultural use?
Aanenson: I had 2007 it says in the staff report. Yeah, 2007.
Aller: 2007.
Aanenson: Yeah, and again that even goes back to just people that had garages that were in excess of so
it may be a garage. If they had a larger lot that was maybe 3,000 and again maybe they ’re storing hobby
cars in there. Maybe they ’re doing a side business. Ca binetry, those sort of things and those become
problematic for the neighbors and it ’s a code enforcement issue when we have neighbors that are building
cabinets you know around the clock and other people in the neighborhood don ’t expect that in their
residential neighborhood. Kind of separating the commercial type use from the residential use.
Aller: Okay. Any other questions of staff? Is the applicant present and wishing to make a presentation?
Sir, please come forward and step up the podium and state your name and address for the record.
Chuck Worm: I ’m Chuck Worm.
Aller: Welcome.
Chuck Worm: My proposal for the additional building here is to store more hay, equipment for farm use
too and we do have excavating and I have a conditional use permit on a site west of Chaska so we go back
and forth with farm equipment and excavating equipment so I just, and to the west of us we, I usually
rented farm barns and things like that and while most of the time they get eaten up by development and
things like that so it ’s hard to find hay storage and things like that. And we ’re trying to, we make hay at
the Minnesota Arboretum and they want, they want, they ’ve got 3 farmers in there right now making hay
and they want to narrow that down to one person on the property so I ’m making probably 20 acres right
now and they got a total of 86 so if I propose or throw, put a bid in to get that, then I add another 66 acres
or whatever to my haying business too so i t ’s hard to keep storage you know when it keeps disappearing
so that ’s why I ’m kind of looking to do it for myself. My own self.
Aller: The report indicated that, in the proposed findings that if you took the business equipment and kept
it in Chaska it sounds like, at that location, would there be sufficient space then to take the additional hay
and put it in there and store it so that you have one place for your agricultural items, the hay and another
place for your business equipment, which is preferred by the City anyway and that would be in Chaska?
Chuck Worm: I probably wouldn ’t have enough storage at the Chaska facility.
Aller: For the business equipment.
Chuck Worm: For the business equipment too. Yep.
Chanhassen Planning Commission – May 21, 2013
14
Aller: I guess the other question is what are you going to do about the fact that the business equipment
isn ’t necessarily supposed to be where it is now?
Chuck Worm: I don ’t know. I got good neighbors and nobody ’s ever complained in 13 years or 14 years
that I ’m going in and out the driveway.
Aller: Okay.
Sandy Worm: We use the trucks for hauling shavings. We use it for hauling manure out just for our
neighbor last week so a lot of the equipment is.
Aanenson: Mr. Chair, it ’s just hard for you to hear. For them to get on the microphone.
Aller: Yeah I was going to say if you want to come up, that would be great. Just state your name and
address for the record, that would be wonderful.
Sandy Worm: Sure. Hi, I ’m Sandy Worm. His wife and we do use some of the equipment dually. We
use the dump trucks for hauling in shavings and we haul, we use the semi for hauling in the round bales
so that ’s how we transport you know all this stuff in is with the trucks so, just so you know that too. It ’s
not just you know definitely the agricultural and the excavating. They go hand in hand so . Yeah, so just
keep that in mind.
Aller: And then how much hay is created because I have no idea when, if you ’ve got the 66 and then
what is your likelihood of getting the 66 acres?
Sandy Worm: Well actually we do make a lot of hay. We make the field alongside of Marty Schutrop.
That ’s the tight field. We do some of Tim Erhart ’s meadow land. We do a field in Chaska. Chuck ’s
home site so there ’s a lot of.
Aller: But I mean as far as storing hay on your property. Do you go next door and take his hay and put it
on your property and go to the other location, that ’s where you get your hay now?
Sandy Worm: Yes, exactly. We have another.
Aller: And then how much hay do you actually have on your property on a normal year?
Chuck Worm: Well between, we ’ve got a, since we can ’t find like a hay barn to store hay in, we ’ve got a,
what is it? 50 by 80 foot building right now that was used for farm equipment and combination
excavation equipment and right now we can, we fill th at up from one end to the other. And another 60,
right now I ’ve got 66 acres. Another 66 acres would double that so that ’s kind of why I ’m trying to get
the additional storage. It ’s hard to find storage.
Aller: Okay, it gives me a better idea of how much hay you ’re talking about and the size requirements.
Chuck Worm: Yeah. Yeah.
Aller: And then if you, but if you do that still, we still have to resolve that issue with the mechanical
business equipment as opposed to the agricultural equipment, even if you have one or two items that are
agricultural. What about the rest of the items?
Sandy Worm: What size is Jesse ’s shed? There ’s a big shed out there.
Chanhassen Planning Commission – May 21, 2013
15
Chuck Worm: Well yeah, we ’ve got another big storage building which is, I think it ’s 50 by 120 or
something like that and it ’s full of combination again you know farm equipment. I keep a lot of farm
equipment out there in the winter with my excavating equipment so it kind of, you know my business
kind of works together you know so I ’m just not, just not excavating. We ’re always farming too so it
works together.
Aller: Okay great. Any other questions of the applicant?
Undestad: You keep horses and stuff out there on a regular basis …
Chuck Worm: Yep.
Sandy Worm: Oh yeah, it ’s Bobcat ’s moving manure all the time and yeah, we ’re feeding hay. We ’re
using the Bobcat ’s all the time. Actually I own my own so.
Aller: Okay, anyone else have questions of the applicants?
Weick: Is the riding academy, is that an ongoing business today?
Sandy Worm: Is it what?
Weick: Is it a business ongoing?
Sandy Worm: Yep. Yep. Mostly Saturdays now and then when school gets out we ’ll do our summer
hours and change to the summer.
Aller: And that ’s permitted on an annual basis as stated in the report, right?
Sandy Worm: Yes.
Weick: I don ’t know anything about hay obviously but is this a seasonal thing? Is it stored just certain
parts of the year and then the building would be pretty much vacant, is that correct?
Chuck Worm: Yeah, I usually by spring, by May the storage hay shed I ’ve got right now, it would be
empty and at this time we, you know if we got additional equipment, I don ’t like to have it outside so it
goes in that shed until we start making hay probably in 4 weeks so then that all starts over again and
usually our, the last day is about September-October so yeah.
Weick: Is it common to have a structure, you know a fairly substantial structure to store a commodity
like hay? Or are there other temporary types of structures that would be useful?
Sandy Worm: Not for horses because you don ’t want any mold on it so. Some people you ’ll see it stored
outside but that ’s more for cattle because horses get very sick from the mold so.
Aller: Thank you very much.
Sandy Worm: You bet.
Aller: Anyone else wishing to come forward, we ’ll open up the public hearing for purposes of comment.
Speaking for or against the proposal.

Marty Schutrop: Marty Schutrop again. I live just south of Chuck and you know I guess I ’ve never
understood this ordinance that the city did in 2005 because I went last year I wanted to build, I have a
2,500 square foot building on my property and I have horses and I wanted to build a 1,000 square foot
additional hay thing and I was told that you ’re never going to get it through the council and I was
basically told you can ’t do that anymore because they ’re not going to allow any of these buildings
anymore so, and I do sympathize with Chuck about storage and running a business and trying to keep it
all, and keep the neighbors happy so, but I guess if the council approves buildings in this area, why
wouldn ’t they approve them half a mile down the road then is what I ’m saying. Maybe the council needs
to look at people that are actually have acreage that want to just have enclosed stuff instead of putting
their stuff outside, that we can put it into some buildings so that ’s my comments so.
Aller: Thank you.
Gary Benziek: I ’m Gary Benziek. I live at 731 West 96 t h .
Aller: Welcome sir.
Gary Benziek: And I find it kind of comical we ’re here again on this same issue. I watch Chuck all
summer long drive wagons of hay home. A farmer ’s nightmare is a sudden cloud burst and right now he
has nowhere to pull those wagons in if that ’s the case. This building would give him that opportunity to
do that. I grew up on the farm and I know what haying is and I know what is required to keep it dry. If
you ’re going to have good hay for your animals it must be taken care of properly. I ’m in favor of this
proposal, more on the line of again the same issue as last year. These are large acre lots in a R-2, A-2
area and I find it hard to imagine that these lots should be lumped into the same restrictions that a city lot
of a quarter to maybe a third the size of any of these lots have. That ’s why we purchased these lots so that
we could have room to have equipment if we needed to. We understand the zoning with businesses. I
don ’t think it ’s staff ’s job to say well maybe a business is going to be there. If a business is there it ’s
staff ’s job to do what the ordinance says and eliminate that problem. I don ’t think it ’s staff ’s job to say
well we think this might happen. When I moved in I was told there ’s going to be a street right next to me
so I put two rows of evergreens to shade, or to you know hopefull y screen that street area. Two years
later when I put up my building I was told there was never going to be a street there so to guess what ’s
going to happen down the road I don ’t think is, you know it ’s great and I applaud staff for doing the job
they do but yet I don ’t think that some of these issues should be decided on what might happen. Again as
I stated last fall, this is all very, very wetland. If this was ever changed into the type of dense housing that
would be up here, they ’d all have to be on poles. It ’s swamp. My sump, both sump pumps are running
every 10 seconds right now from the rain we ’ve had and they ’ll continue to run that way all year so the
only way this could ever become a denser area is if the whole development was bulldozed down, the soil
corrected and that would happen. When I did my building I was told there ’s going to be an area in the
city, you ’re one of them that will never be small residential lots. And again never say never but that ’s
what I was told and I advised that you know, would wish the council would approve their request for a
variance because they have plenty of acreage to meet the criteria and what they ’re doing is only going to
enhance the property. One last comment in regards to that once this building is up it can never, you
know it ’s going to be a problem if future development ever did happen. It ’s an agricultural building. It ’s
a pole building. Pole buildings have never been considered anything more than a temporary structure.
Most counties you don ’t even need to have a permit to build one. If it ’s for agricultural because it ’s
considered temporary so if development ever did proceed that way, this building could be removed with
no more work than it was to put it up. Thank you .
Aller: Okay, thank you. Anyone else wishing to come forward to speak forward or against? Seeing no
one, we ’ll close the public hearing. Comments.
Chanhassen Planning Commission – May 21, 2013
17
Yusuf: Can I ask a question?
Aller: Sure. Who would you like to talk to?
Yusuf: Martin Schutrop. Right there. I have a question for Martin Schutrop. You had mentioned that
you recently requested an addition to your lot and it was denied.
Marty Schutrop: Well I was told that don ’t even bother applying because we, you, I already had a 2,500
square foot building and I wanted to put up another barn to take the hay out of that and put it, because we
have 6, 5 or 6 horses too and it ’s a mess in there so we just wanted a little separate building for the hay
that was closer to the pasture and they said no. You ’ve already got your building and we ’re not, we won ’t
approve anything. You ’d have to go through, every one of your neighbors would have to approve it and
my neighbors don ’t like anything I do so it doesn ’t really matter so I didn ’t even bother doing it so.
Aanenson: Can I just make.
Marty Schutrop: And I didn ’t know the ordinance had changed. I was never notified as a resident that I
couldn ’t add additional buildings onto the property.
Aanenson: Let me make a clarification.
Aller: Well yeah.
Aanenson: First of all we don ’t, we only recommend. We always tell people before they apply what
we ’re going to recommend so they go into that knowing that we ’re, this is what the ordinance says.
We ’re going to make the interpretation. Obviously the Planning Commission makes their
recommendation. If you don ’t get the majority vote, you have a right to appeal it to the City Council so
we don ’t also poll the neighbors. The neighbors give you input for your information. For additional
information for public hearing. We don ’t ask you to get your neighbors to buy in on any additional
changes …
Marty Schutrop: Well and I agree that on smaller lots it makes sense but I have 8 acres and I have one
little building out in the middle corner.
Aanenson: Yep and.
Marty Schutrop: To put another building out there wouldn ’t affect anybody really.
Aanenson: Well we ’re not here to discuss the merits of that application.
Yusuf: I had a follow up question please.
Aanenson: Okay.
Yusuf: The reason why I brought up that first question was to ask you, as we ’re all educating ourselves
about the hay business and storage of hay, what other options might there be to store the hay if you didn ’t
get the additional lots, or the additional building?
Marty Schutrop: Oh for me or for Chuck?
Chanhassen Planning Commission – May 21, 2013
18
Yusuf: I guess for Chuck.
Marty Schutrop: Well he has a lot more horses than I do and he cuts hay where we just get it delivered so
we only bring as much hay in as we need for probably 2 or 3 months.
Yusuf: Okay.
Marty Schutrop: We don ’t store enough hay for a year so we just get hay every few months and put it
into a smaller area so.
Yusuf: Well thank you for that.
Aanenson: Mr. Chair, I guess that was my question too. So was the volume of hay to, for the whole, to
make it through the whole year or is there another reason to store the volume? I guess I wasn ’t clear on
that and we didn ’t ask that question but I guess I ’m learning about the hay storage.
Aller: I guess we should ask. Can you answer that question sir?
Chuck Worm: What was the question?
Aller: How much, when you ’re storing hay, are you doing it for the entire year then? You harvest hay
once and then store it at whatever location?
Chuck Worm: Yes.
Aller: Have you in the past obtained hay and had it delivered as your neighbor has?
Chuck Worm: Yeah well we cut, most likely 3 times a year on each field and we do sell some hay to the
neighbors and other people that do need it or whatever. We make large round bales. Round bales take up
a lot of space so, but yeah we do keep enough storage to feed until you know all the time. We feed dry
hay all year round. We don ’t pasture them, or not much. Little bit.
Aller: Great, thank you.
Aanenson: Yeah I guess that was my question is it for their purposes or is it for a larger purpose, yeah.
Yeah, that ’s what I guess.
Hokkanen: So was the hay for your own personal horses only? Is that clarification mostly?
Aller: No, he sells some.
Chuck Worm: No, we sell some to the neighbors and people …
Hokkanen: Okay.
Aller: Okay, public hearing has been closed so discussion.
Undestad: I have a comment on here. Just you know I think your comment about maybe that their place
having the most square footage when this is done, you know that, I don ’t disagree with that. They also
have the largest site in the whole thing.
Chanhassen Planning Commission – May 21, 2013
19
Aller: Right.
Undestad: But I think what we ’re, you know what ’s kind of missing on this picture, you know when
Degler ’s came in for their ’s, they ’ve got the big farm but Gayle also farms a lot of land around
Chanhassen just like the Worm ’s do so not only is it you know their little farm area here but they ’re
farming a lot of acreage around town and need the storage on there too so like the Degler ’s they ’re using
it to feed their livestock so I think it ’s, you know it ’s a little different again than these other buildings we
have looked at on there. Some we approved. Some we didn ’t but you know I think this is more of an
agricultural use than any of the other ones we ’ve seen in there so.
Aller: Okay. Anyone else comments? I ’m going to be consistent and I ’m going to vote against unless
someone wants to try to convince me otherwise but I still feel as though there have been findings that
there ’s a commercial business going on at the property and as it ’s been stated, and a request has been
made not to think about what might happen, I know what ’s there now is a commercial business and until
an effort is made to exclude all the commercial business and equipment and see whether or not the hay
actually fits in what ’s there, then perhaps the request is premature so that we can see. I ’m also hearing
that there ’s an excess of hay that ’s being sold and there ’s a question as to whether or not that ’s running an
agricultural business as opposed to an agricultural lot, which might be prohibited as well so the nature of
the property isn ’t necessarily unique for the storage there. I know it ’s, that ’s zoned agricultural but I ’m
going to be consistent with what I ’ve been doing all along which is to indicate that the plan has been to
restrict these. They didn ’t cut them out completely. They reduced the size and said we have to be very,
very careful about the structures that are going in. Had there not been a business I think I might have
swayed the other way but since there is a current business on the property I think that we have to take a
look at that and perhaps move the equipment and make sure that all the equipment and all the businesses
are not running at the property. Making a concerted effort to see whether or not the hay can be stored,
and sufficient hay can be stored at that point in time. So that ’s my feeling on that.
Tennyson: I agree with the consistency. I feel that the analysis of how a variance is applied is the same
as it ’s been in the past and that ’s the way I ’ve voted in the past.
Aller: Your mileage may vary. Anybody have comment?
Weick: This is very difficult and I would agree that the one, the amount of equipment that ’s being stored
in the building that ’s there now that is being used for a purpose that ’s inconsistent with the zoning, to me
that ’s you know, that ’s the largest circumstance so I would agree.
Aller: Any additional comments? Questions before we vote. Would anyone like to make a motion either
for or against the request for a variance?
Tennyson: I ’ll make a motion for denial.
Aller: Okay, whatever the motion is.
Tennyson: The Chanhassen Board of Appeals and Adjustments denies the variance request to construct a
7,120 square foot accessory structure and adopts the attached Findings of Fact and Decision.
Aller: I have a motion. Do I have a second?
Weick: Second.
Aller: I have a motion and a second. Any further discussion, questions or comments?
Chanhassen Planning Commission – May 21, 2013

Tennyson moved, Weick seconded that the Chanhassen Board of Appeals and Adjustments denies
the variance request to construct a 7,120 square foot accessory structure and adopts the attached
Findings of Fact and Decision. All voted in favor, except for Undestad and Hokkanen who opposed,
and the motion carried with a vote of 5 to 2.
Aller: Anyone that ’s aggrieved of the decision by this commission serving as the Board of Appeals and
Adjustments should file an appeal in writing, and that ’s a short period of time. It ’s approximately 4 days
so sir if you want to appeal the decision go ahead and just request that in writing with the staff.
Chuck Worm: Okay.
Aller: Thank you sir.
Chuck Worm: Yep, thanks.
Aller: Anything further?
CITY COUNCIL ACTION UPDATE:
Aanenson: So the next item on your agenda for the council.
Aller: Yeah I was going to look for the minutes.
Aanenson: Yep, that would be the apartments that were approved on April 22 nd . So we ’re still waiting
for the land use amendment to come through on that one so we haven ’t put the site plan together on that.
Then also in your packet were some new signs that were issued so it ’s indicated for us because we don ’t
have a business license requirement regarding the Chanhassen Wellness Chiropractic and the Massage.
Upcoming agendas, just a reminder to you. On next Tuesday, because the council will not be meeting on
Monday because of a holiday, is the joint work session so on that you ’ll be receiving a packet. That ’s
been on this, I ’m not sure if everybody ’s got it on their radar. If you cannot make it, I ’ll send out a
reminder and I ’ll have Kim, if that ’s alright, just email you the packet. It ’s, what I put in there, those of
you that are new didn ’t receive this. We do an annual review. It ’s part of the City Code that we give you
an update so we talk about how many permits were issued. We kind of adjust the population projections.
And then we also talked about some things that we ’ll be working on this year. We also included in that ,
those of you that were in attendance on the new normal, kind of put the summary findings in there too so
those will be our talking points so you ’ll be getting those here probably Thursday. If you are unable to
attend will you let me know and so I can let the council know but that would be and the work session is in
the Fountain Conference Room. I can ’t remember exactly what time you ’re on at so, but that ’s scheduled.
And then the item that ’s on for June 4 th is a question mark. There ’s still some issues on that that we ’re
trying to resolve so that issue may not be on and that would be the Preserve at Rice Lake so there may not
be a meeting on June 4 th . There will be one on the 18 th . That item will probably be moved down but we
did receive another subdivision last week and that ’s on the Jeurissen property which is in that 2005 study
area. So that ’s single and twins and that ’s the piece kind of to the, it ’d be south of what Degler has and to
the east of the Ryland Pioneer Pass so, so yeah it looks like a really nice subdivision so you ’ll be seeing
that one. We do have a lot of applications we ’re working on now including commercial. Yeah, quite a
few commercial projects and a couple of the residential subdivisions. The easy pieces are gone. The rest
of this is a little more problematic. There ’s another one on Galpin that ’s kind of working through some
issues there. Trying to get the lot sizes a little bigger to make them work better so we ’ll be busy. Right
now we ’re just kind of working through some design issues on that so, so we anticipate those coming
through. And then we haven ’t set the joint tour yet with the Environmental Commission and the Planning
Chanhassen Planning Commission – May 21, 2013
21
Commission but we ’ll do that too so, and again we typically don ’t have a meeting on July 2 nd because of
the 4 th of July week. People are traveling and doing other things so that ’s on your calendar and then
August 6 th is National Night Out so we hope that you ’re with your neighborhood doing something fun in
your neighborhood so.
Aller: Wonderful. Thank you.
Aanenson: Up on top you see kind of the things that came in, so the Jeurissen one is one that came in,
that we just talked about. And then looks like the City Council is looking at the Sinclair property. That ’s
across from McDonald ’s on Highway 5 so there might be something coming in on that one too. And then
we ’re still working on the Bluff Creek Cottages. Another senior housing project too so those are just the
ones that are public for right now. The other ones are kind of in different stages of getting reviewed so
we ’ll be busy. We ’ll see some changes in town.
Aller: Great, thank you.
APPROVAL OF MINUTES: Commissioner Hokkanen noted the verbatim and summary Minutes
of the Planning Commission meeting dated April 16, 2013 as presented.
Aller: Any comments or announcements from any of the commissioners?
Aanenson: Oh, I got feedback from Kim regarding the GTS Planning Service so, the other folks did you
find it interesting? Good. Yeah, so it was in, where was it again? Arden Hills?
Yusuf: Shoreview.
Aanenson: Shoreview, okay. So but you learned something.
Yusuf: Yep.
Aanenson: I appreciate you taking the time to go and to get that training. It ’s always good. We try to
provide training. It ’s always good to hear from somebody else and then you can kind of keep us in check
which is part of your job too to make sure we ’re staying on task and.
Weick: Are there any other training opportunities coming?
Aanenson: You know GTS is really the best one but we have other opportunities. We have programs, I ’ll
try to include those in your packet but certainly there is a budget for training so we ’ll put those in your
packet if we see something else that might be of interest for you. I ’m a member of the Sensible Land Use
Coalition. We have a program over the lunch hour on Wednesday in St. Louis Park and those are always
interesting. Some of them are kind of development, try to rotate around engineering, commercial,
residential, all different types of property but I ’ll include those in your packet too so if anybody ’s
interested in those. I know for some people it ’s kind of hard to take a 2 hour lunch but if you can go to
some of those, those are interesting too so. And any other things that are around here. I know the
watershed districts have meetings at the Arboretum on certain drainage issues and I think those are a good
thing to learn about too. How those all work so I ’ll make sure I include more of those but the GTS ones
are, I don ’t think the next one would come around til almost another year. The Level II so I started you
guys off on the Level I so.
Aller: I ’ll entertain a motion to adjourn.
Chanhassen Planning Commission – May 21, 2013

Undestad moved, Yusuf seconded to adjourn the meeting. All voted in favor and the motion
carried unanimously with a vote of 7 to 0. The Planning Commission meeting was adjourned at

SUBJ: Lift Station 10 Improvements, Project No. 13 -07: Approve
ConsultantContract
PROPOSED MOTION
The City Council approves a consultant contract with WSB & Associates for
design and construction administration services for Lift Station 10
Improvements in the amount of $46,667."
City Council approval requires a simple majority vote of thosepresent.
BACKGROUND
Lift Station No. 10 is located at
the end of Big Woods Drive
nextto Lotus Lake and services
a large area of the City's Lotus
Lake Sanitary Sewer District.
This sewer district is nearly
fully developed however the
sanitary lift station storage
capacity is undersized for the
size of the district. The lift
station was originally
constructed in 1975. The Lift
Station No. 10 service area
extends from Pleasant View
Road to south of Sierra Trail
between Lucy Lake and Lotus
Lake. Two additional lift
stations (Nos. 9 & 11) pump to
the collection system, which
conveys flow to Lift Station
No. 10. The service area

encompasses approximately 480 acres and includes approximately 989 service
connections. The sanitary sewer flow to the lift station is 0.271 million gallons
per day (MGD). An 8 -inch forcemain extends from the lift station southeast
along LotusLake to Hwy 101 where it discharges into a 21 -inch trunk sewer. The
forcemain is approximately 7,625 feet in length. The station was last worked on
in 2002 when new controls and a standbygeneratorwere installed. The lift
station is thesecond largest pumping station the City maintains.
DISCUSSION
LS 10 wet well capacityis inadequate to effectively handlethe volume of
wastewater going through the station. The existing wet well has only about 8ft. of
normal storage. Therecommended storage for the volume of flow going tothis
station is calculated at 21 ft. Since the station has significantly undersized wet
well capacity, the pumps cycle continuously causing premature wear. These
pumps are constantly being serviced. The significant amount of pump cycling per
day is also electrically inefficient. Additionally, whenproblemsoccur,
emergency responders have very little time to diagnose, correct the problem and
get the station running again before it overflows because the stationessentially
does not have any emergency storage.
Staff is proposing to drill a new wet well onthe existing lift station easement to
create therecommended normal and emergency storage. The station is in close
proximity to residential lakeshore properties so construction is limited to the
existing lift station easement. The new wet well is anticipated to be drilled next to
the existing lift station using caisson construction technique. The existing lift
station will be kept in service while the new wet well is being constructed. A tri-
plex submersible pumpstation is proposed to provide additional storage working
range for the pumps and for a more efficient pumping operation. This will reduce
the number of hourly starts and reduce the excessive wear on the pumps. The tri-
plex station pumps would alsobe smaller, in the range of 36 hp to 50 hp.
Fencing and landscaping improvements will be part of the project. Staff intends
to meet with the adjacent property owners to work with them on a mutually
acceptable plan.
Consultant Proposals
Staff emailed request for proposals (RFP) tothree consultants for final design and
construction services. On May 16, 2013, staff received proposals for the work
from the consultants. All firms submitted a proposal which is summarized as
follows:

All firms met the minimum qualifications for the project. WSB & Associates had
the lowest proposal. WSB has worked on other lift station projects for the City.
The most recent project was improvements to lift station 3 on TH 7. They were
also the engineer that assisted the Citywith the design of the 2012 street
reconstruction project in the Minnewashta Height neighborhood. Their work has
been acceptable.
Thecontract would be a time and materials based work not -to- exceed amount. As
with all engineering contracts, the consultant mustsubmit periodic invoices for
staff review prior to processing. The consultant will be required to submit
timesheets verifying the hours worked onthe project and expense sheets. Staff
will review the invoices and expense sheets for accuracy and conformance to the
contract.

hisproject would increase the wet well capacity, replace thepumps with more efficient pumping sequencing and replace the outdated electrical
anel of the lift station.
Justification
Lift Station 10 hasa large sewer shed which is locatedon the west side of Lotus Lake in theCarver Beach area. The station is one of the largest
he City maintains. Currently Lift Station 10 has a significantly undersized wet well capacity. The pumps cycle continuously which causes
remature wear on the pumps and motors and is very inefficient. Also, the small wet well does not allow much time for the utility department to
espond if station problems occur. The lift station is located next to Lotus Lake, which could lead to environmental problems if an accident were
0 occur.

DISCUSSION
Staff is planning to discussthe
proposed 2014 street
reconstruction project with the
Council at the June 10 work
session.
TheCapital Improvement
Program had planned for
reconstructing the
Minnewashta Shores area
north of Lake Minnewashta)
and Kiowa Trail (south) next
year.
The streets in Minnewashta
Shores and KiowaTrail were
selected using the City's
Pavement Management
Program and site
investigations.

Minnewashta Shores
The streets in this project area were constructed in 1971. With the exception of Barberry Circle, the
streets were sealcoated in 1994and 1999. The street conditions weresurveyed in 2011and the
pavement condition indices (PCIs) are shown on the graphic below. A PCI of 100 represents a new
street. Streets with a PCI below 45 typically indicate distresses that require a full reconstruction,
therefore it is no longer cost effective to repair the streets with minor maintenanceor perform a
bituminous overlay.
The street widths vary between 23' and 27' within 40' or 50' wide right of way. The streets are
proposedto be reconstructed to the existing widths.

The watermain in this area is cast iron
pipe and has five documented breaks, as
shown on the graphic to the right. Staff
proposes toreplace the watermain with
PVCwatermain. All services would also
be replaced. The sanitary sewer will be
televised to determine its condition and if
there is inflow /infiltration into the system.
The project area is developed therefore
there is minimal space to provide
traditional storm water management,
namely curb and gutter, storm sewer and
treatment ponds.

Association (HOA) owns a property

on the graphic to the right. Staff has
contacted the HOA and discussed opportunities for stormwater management facilities within this
common area. The HOA may be amenableto a project that wouldallow the area to remain open for
recreational use.
The City has contracted WSBEngineering to provide a preliminary storm water analysis of the area
along with recommendations for storm watertreatment. Staff is looking into several storm water
treatment systems to help removeparticulates and provide rate control before discharging into Lake
Minnewashta. Optional treatment systems include an iron - enhanced sand filtration system,
underground infiltration or rain gardensystem. Recommendations and estimated costs will be
available in the future. This City has contacted the Minnehaha Watershed District to see if grant
funds are available.
There are overhead private utilities within the project area. The private utility companies will be
notified of the proposed project andasked to provide an estimate to bury the utility. Should the
neighborhood wish topursue burying the private utilities, 100% of the cost will be assessed to the
benefitting property owners.
Kiowa Trail
Kiowa Trail is a 21' wide street within a 60' wide right of way. This street was built in 1978and
sealcoated in 1992 and 1997. The 2012 pavement condition survey of KiowaTrail revealed a PCI of
13, therefore a street reconstructionproject is proposed. Kiowa Trail currently dead ends at
Springfield Drive. In December, 2012 the residents of Kiowa Trail submitted a petition requesting
that Kiowa Trail remain a deadend street.
Section 7.4.3 of the 2020 Comprehensive Plan states:
Back -to -back cul -de -sacs were installed at the north end of Kiowa Trail and the
south end of Springfield Drive. The pavement for the northerncul -de -sac was

installed to the project property line. A breakaway barricade was installed to
prohibit thru traffic. The cul -de -sacs were intended to be temporary until either
area residents petition the City to open the connection or new Highway 212 is
constructed.
The construction of Highway 212 was completed in 2007. The portion of Highway 101 adjacent to
KiowaTrail is currently under construction and the street connection to the Springfield development
viaSpringfield Drive is open to provide Kiowa Trail residents in order to provide access to the area
during construction.

Kiowa Trail is a rural street section with no defined ditches. The street will need to be reconstructed
to the current width due to thesite constraints and the right of way width. Concrete curb and gutter
is proposedto be incorporated in to the design. The stormwater runoff from about the southern 1/3
of Kiowa Trail will be treated in a TH 101 pond currently be constructed. The north portion of the
street runoff is proposed to be treated in a pondin Bandimere Park. Staff is also looking at other
storm watertreatment options if a pond in Bandimere Park is not feasible. The City has contacted
the Riley- Purgatory -Bluff Creek Watershed District to see if grantfunds are available.
Sanitary sewer was installed in Kiowa Trailin 1977. The sanitary sewer will be televised to
determine what sections need to be repaired or replaced.
An eight inch public watermain is stubbed within Springfield Drive to the north. The Highway 101
reconstruction plans (Lyman Boulevard to Pioneer Trail) include the installation of a 12" trunk
watermain within the Highway 101 corridor. The Highway 101 plans include the installation of an

8" public watermain stub to Kiowa Trail. Public 8" watermain is proposed to be installed with the
2014 Street Reconstruction project to provide public service to the residents along Kiowa Trail. The
design will include a pressure reducing valve station. Water services would be stubbed to the
property line. The cost of the watermainimprovements will be 100% assessed to the benefiting
property owners. Property owners can then connect to City water aftergoing through the normal
connection permit process.
Project Financing
Budgets for the proposed work have been included in the 2013 CIP. The budgets will need to be
reviewed and updated based upon current construction cost estimates and after the feasibility report
is drafted.
Assessments will be based off the City's assessment practice of assessing 40% of thestreet
improvements to the benefiting properties on a per lot basis. The assessments would be proposed for
10 years at a preliminary 6% interest rate. A consultation report will be drafted tohelp determine
the final assessment amount.
Thecost to install the proposed watermain within Kiowa Trail would be assessed 100% to the
benefittingproperty owners since this would be a new utility. This is consistent with the City's
assessment practice. For example, properties within the 2007 Dogwood Road /Tanadoona Street and
utility project were assessed for 100% of the cost of the sewer and water installation.
The Engineering Department will host neighborhood meetings toanswer resident questionsabout
the proposed improvements and assessments. These meetings also give staff an opportunity to
gather additional information about the area to helpmake the project successful.
Engineering Services
Consultantengineering services would be needed for the street project. Theengineering services
would include feasibility report preparation, final design and constructionadministrative services.
Staff sent a request for proposalsto three engineering companies: Kimley -Horn & Associates, SEH,
and WSB & Associates.
Proposals were received from all three consultants and are summarized below:

i. Justification
The City uses a Pavement Management System to monitor the' condition of the City streets. While properpreventative maintenance extendsthe
life of the streetand is cost effective, a street will eventually deteriorate to a point that further maintenance is no longer cost effective.
Rehabilitation projects extendthe life of the street. In cases with utility or poor sub grade needs to bereplaced or where streets have deteriorated
to a point where rehabilitation will no longer be practical reconstruction of thestreetis necessary. A feasibility study is written toconsider the
merits of the project and scope of work.

RE: Petition for Kiowa Trail / Highway 101 Improvements
Dear Paul:
Enclosed you will find a Petition signed by 100% of the homes on Kiowa
Trail. As stated on this Petition, we as homeowners want to make the city
aware that we unanimouslyprefer to keep KiowaTrail a deadendstreet.
We understand the need to openthe street up into the Springfield
neighborhood during construction of Hwy 101. With that, we continue to ask
that once the construction is complete, Kiowa Trail is permanently made a
dead end street and appropriate signageand barrios be placed onthe street.
If you have anyquestions regarding this Petition or are uncertain of the
wishes of the Kiowa community, please contact me at your earliest
convenience.

Kiowa Trail — Chanhassen Minnesota — CarverCounty
Highway 101 Improvements — Kiowa Trail through Street
The following homeowners on Kiowa Trail have signed this petition to make their preferences known
regarding the future of Kiowa Trail. As development of the area and the expansion of Highway 101 continue
to increase trafficin our area, we see the need to notify the city planners that we collectively do not want to
see Kiowa Trail become a through street to the Springfield Neighborhood.
We envision a significant increase in traffic on our street would change the neighborhood we have come
to enjoy. Notonly the width of the street, but the elevation changes would create dangerous site lines from
driveways as increased speeds and traffic wouldultimately be realized.

the pastseveral years, including Goodwill and Haskell's. Mr. Merriman is now
working onthe redevelopment of the Sinclair Gas Station site at 7910 Dakota

PROPOSED REDEVELOPMENT PLANS
Currently, the Sinclair gas station sits on approximately .6 acres of land. It
operates as a gas station/convenience store and sells liquid petroleum out of a
2,000 - gallon bulk storage tank just north of the store. The property iszoned
Highway Business and the site conformstoall of the city's zoning regulations
with the exception of sitecoverage percentage. Center Companies is proposing
to demolish the convenience store and remove both the liquid petroleum and the
underground gas tanks. In its place, Center Companies wouldbuild an 8,000 sq.
ft. retail center that would accommodate three tenants. Thetenant mix includes
a coffee shop with a drive -thru, specialtysandwich shop, and the third tenant is
unknown at this time (Attachment #3). To accommodate the 8,000 sq. ft.
building, the developerintends to purchase a portion of the city -owned property

More Job Opportunities: In addition to the construction jobs created by the
redevelopment, a minimum of 16 new jobs would be created by the new tenants.
Improving the environment by correcting the contaminated soils from the previously
leaking tanks.

Improving the aesthetics of the area by introducing higher quality architecture.
Eliminates access points offof Dakota Avenue and avoids traffic conflict.
Cons
Potential traffic increase on Dakota and Lake Drive.

served by combining the two parcels (Sinclair and city parcel) for one larger
development.

Single- Family Residential District (RSF); Subdivisionwith Variances for a neck lot and the
construction of a private street; and a Conditional Use Permit to allow development within the
Bluff Creek Overlay District. The property currently has one single - family residence on it. The

BACKGROUND
Thereis an existing single - family home located on the property. The house was built in 1966.
The City of Chanhassen establishedthe Bluff Creek Overlay District by ordinance in 1998 to
protect the Bluff Creek Corridor, wetlands, bluffs and significant stands of mature trees through
the use of careful site design and other low- impact practices. This parcel is partially encumbered
by the Bluff Creek primary zone.
In 2001, the city undertook utility expansion in the BC -7 and BC -8 sewer subdistricts. This
utility improvement brought sanitary sewer and water service from Galpin Boulevardto the west
side of Highway 41.
IL W1010 10011
The applicant is proposing the rezoning of the property from Agricultural Estate District (A -2) to
Single - Family Residential District (RSF). The property is guided for Residential Low Density use.
Zoning categories consistent with this designation are Single - Family Residential District (RSF),
Mixed Low Density Residential District (R -4), Residential Low and Medium Density Residential
District (RLM) or Planned Unit Development Residential (PUD -R). The RSF district is the primary
Planning Commission
Bluff Creek Woods —Planning Case 2013 -09

zoning category used for single - family development. Of the land guided for residential low density
uses, 78 percent (3,683 acres of 4,702 acres guided Residential Low Density) is zoned RSF district.
The proposed rezoning of the property to RSF is consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan.
SUBDIVISION REVIEW
The applicant is proposing a three -lot subdivision
with access providedvia a private street. Outlot A is
part of the Bluff Creek primary zone and will be
preserved as permanent open space. A conservation
easement shall be recorded over Outlot A as well as
over the southeast portion of Lot 1, the southeast and
east portion of Lot 2 and the eastern portion of Lot 3,
which are all part of the Bluff Creek primary zone.
Lot 3 is classified as a flag or neck lot.
Staff is recommending approval of the preliminary
plat subject to the conditions outlined in the staff
report.
STREETS AND ACCESS
The property iseast of State Highway 41. The existing home on thesubject property shares an
access with the home to the north. The two additional lotsproposed would also share this access
to Highway 41. The drivewayto Lot 3 will extend between the two existingdriveways. The
developer proposes to utilize a portion of the driveway on Lot 2to provide access to Lot 1. Staff
supportsthe shared access; however, the common portion is recommended to extend tothe
existing turnaround on Lot 2 in order to minimize impervious surface, save trees and to provide a
better driveway gradeto Lot 1.

Private Street
While each of the lots front on a public street, Highway 41, individual lot access to the highway
is not permitted. A joint access is required for the three lots as well as the property tothe north.
The common portion of the private street must be constructed to a 20 -foot pavement width with a
7 -ton design.
Private streets serving up to four lots may be permitted in residential developments with a
density of less than four units per acre if the criteria in variance Section 18 -22 are met and upon
consideration of the following:
1) The prevailing development pattern makes it unfeasible or inappropriate to construct a public
street. Inmaking this determination, the city may considerthe location of existing property
lines and homes, local or geographic conditions and the existence of wetlands.
2) After reviewing the surrounding area, it is concluded that an extension of the public street
system is not required to serve other parcels in the area, improve access, or to provide a street
system consistent with the comprehensiveplan.
3) The use of a private street will permit enhanced protection of the city's natural resources,
including wetlands and protected areas.
Due to the location of the property adjacent to Highway 41, the proximity of the Bluff Creek
Primary zone, the configuration of the property and thedesire to preserve as much of the existing
trees along Highway 41 as possible, the use of a private street is appropriate.
Flag/Neck Lot
Flag lots may be permitted in residential districts with a density of less than four unitsper acre, if
the criteria in variance Section 18 -22are met and upon consideration of the following:
1) The prevailing development patternmakes it unfeasible or inappropriate to construct a
public /private street. In making this determination, the city may consider the location of
existingproperty lines and homes, local or geographic conditions andthe existence of
wetlands.
2) After reviewing the surrounding area, it is concluded that an extension of the public or a
private street system is notrequiredto serve other parcels in the area, improve access, or to
provide a street system consistent with the comprehensiveplan.
3) The use of a flag lot will permit enhanced protection of the city's natural resources, including
wetlands and protected areas.
Due tothe location of the property adjacent to Highway 41, the proximity of the Bluff Creek
Primary zone, thedesire to preservethe southern portion of the site as an outlot, the
configuration of the property, the requirementthat lot lines be substantially at right angles to the
street right -of -way and the preservation of the existing house, the most northerly lot assumes a
neck lot configuration.

VARIANCE
The city may grant a Variance from the regulations contained in the subdivision ordinance as
part of the plat approval process following a finding thatall of the following conditions exist:
a. The hardship is not a mere inconvenience;
b. The hardship is caused by the particular physical surroundings, shape or topographical
conditions of the land;
c. The condition or conditions upon which the request isbased are unique and not generally
applicableto other property; and
d. The granting of a variance will not be substantially detrimental tothe public welfare and
is in accord with the purpose and intent of the subdivision ordinance, the zoning
ordinance and the comprehensiveplan.
The use of a private street and creation of a
neck lot are not mere inconveniences, but
due to the constraints of the site, the location
of the property adjacent to Highway 41, the
proximity of the Bluff Creek Primary zone,
the configuration of the property and the
requirement that lot lines be substantially at
right angles tothe street right -of -way. The
granting of the variance will not be
detrimental to the public welfare andis in
accord with the purpose and intent of the
subdivision ordinance, the zoning ordinance
and the comprehensive plan.
BLUFF CREEK OVERLAY DISTRICT
z i
OU TLOT A
In 1996, the City completed the Bluff Creek Watershed Natural Resources ManagementPlan
BCWNRMP). This planrecognized the unique qualities of this corridor and the opportunities it
provided. The intent was to protect a natural corridorfrom the source totheconvergence with
the Minnesota River that would allow for wildlife migration, habitat protection, green space
preservation, recreational opportunities, educational opportunities, protection of the bluff areas
from erosion, and protection of the water quality of Bluff Creek. Sitedesign which is sensitive
to the existing natural resources is the primary method for protecting the Bluff Creek corridor.
To this end the plan created the Bluff Creek Overlay District throughordinance number 286 in
December of 1998 which was codified Article XXXI, Chapter 20.
This plan also recognized the right of privateproperty owners. "Propertyavailable for
development within the existing ...MUSA is not taken through zoning." While the plan felt that
ideally no more people would move into the (primary zone)" it felt that this should be
accomplished through tax incentives for land conservation or through the outright acquisition of
the property.
PlanningCommission
Bluff Creek Woods — Planning Case 2013 -09

As previously mentioned, this area is heavily wooded with an admixture of treespecies with the
predominantoverstory comprised of mature oaks. There are two drainage swales which convey
surface water runoff from the north and west to the large wetland south of the property. The
original overlaydistrict included this property in its entirety. Considering the aforementioned
balanced approach between corridor preservation and private property rights, a review of aerial
photography and severalsite visits supportsthe realignment of the original primary and
secondary zones from the 1996 BCWNRMP.
In an effort to ease financial constraints on a relatively small subdivision, staff feels it is
appropriate to accept land dedication in lieu of Storm Water Utility connection charges. This
dedication configuration was proposed by the applicant and negotiated with staff. It includes an
outlot that would provide a connection from the trail along TH41 to City ownedland as well as a
conservation easement measuring seventy (70) feet in width along the south and eighteen (18)
feet inwidth along the eastern property boundary. This area will constitute the Bluff Creek
Overlay District Primary Zone. Code still requires that structures are setback a minimum of
forty (40) feet from the primary zone: secondaryzone. Theproposed building envelopes and
grading plan will need to be changed to reflect this secondary zone.

GRADING, DRAINAGE AND EROSION
The developer proposes that the lots be custom
graded and has submitted a plan showing how the
proposedlots can accommodate a home. The
grading plan must be revised so that the grades do
not exceed 3H:1 V and must include the972' and
974' contours at the house pads on Lots 3 and 1,
respectively.
Currently thesouthernone -third acre of the
property drains to thesouth, ultimately to a storm
sewer owned and maintained by the Minnesota
It has been the staffs' experience that, in the
absence of some physical demarcation and
educational tool, land manipulation
gradually encroaches into these protected
areas thereby removing the intended benefit.
It is always more difficult and expensive for
the land owner, as well as the City, to
attemptto address these encroachments after
the fact. The installation of signage at major
angle points and property line intersections
is a relatively non - intrusive and inexpensive
way toprevent these encroachments. The
applicant shall amend the plans to show the
location of the signs and install the signs
prior to final plat approval.
Planning Commission

Department of Transportation (MnDOT). The remainder of the property currently drains to the
wetland tothe north. This wetland outlets tothe west into the MnDOT storm sewer. The
proposed drainage patterns are verysimilar to the existing condition.
The developer must obtain a MnDOT drainage permit to ensure that the proposed discharge rates
to MnDOT right -of -way will not exceed the existingcondition. It appears that some
modifications will be requiredto meet MnDOT's permitting requirements.
Drainage and Water Quality
In the past, runoff volume and rate control credit has been given for the preservation of natural
vegetation in perpetuity. The Minimal ImpactDesign Standards being prepared under the
direction of the MPCA by the Minnesota Stormwater Steering Committee has recognized the
volume reduction and rate control benefits of woodland and prairie preservation and restoration.
Other agenciessuch as the Carver County WatershedManagement Organization and the
Minnehaha CreekWatershed District have also incorporated thispractice into their stormwater
rules and design standards. Staff is recommending that volume and rate control credit be granted
based upon the proposed dedication areas shown in the plan.
Even with this credit, per our 2" a Generation Surface Water Management Plan, all development
within Chanhassen is still required to meet National Urban Runoff Program recommendations
for Total Suspended Solids (TSS) and Total Phosphorous (TP) reduction plus enhanced
treatment or the NPDES permit requirements, whichever is stricter. The applicant has not
supplied a drainage plan, a hydrologic model or a water quality model. Further, the plans do not
show the installation of any water quality best management practices. The Total Maximum
Daily Load (TMDL) study has been finished. Based uponthis TMDL discharge from this site
should be less than 25NTU. The applicant will need to meet the NPDES or NURP+ enhanced
water quality standard before final plat approval canbe granted.
Upon reviewing the site, it appears that the northern apex of the outlot and thewestern limit of
Lot 1 could be well suited to a bioretention/filtration feature. Currently the City has not
developed design standards for low - impact development best management practices. The
consulting engineer for the applicant will need to use the Minnesota StormwaterManual for
design purposes.
This same area currently contains an HDPE or PVC grate with an unknownfunction or route.
This information needs to be included onthe survey, considered on the drainageplan and
incorporated into anydesign.
Further, it appears that the shared driveway impounds water to the north. Additional water
volume will be directed to this area through the development of Lot 1. Water that now heads
west and then south along the trail and away from this area will be directed northwest into the
depression north of the shared entrance. An adequate outlet must be providedfor this area and

Wetland Management
The subject property is immediately adjacent to a large wetlandcomplex which serves as the
source for Bluff Creek. Wetland delineation consistent with the 1987 U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers WetlandDelineation Manual was not performed for the site. The approximate
location of the wetland boundary was derived from remotesensing data. It appears that this
location is sufficiently accurate to determine that proposed lots I — 3 are of an adequate distance
from the wetland boundary to accommodate the wetland buffer andsetback from the buffer. The
outlet and theconservation easement will include any wetland buffer which encroaches into the
subject property. It must be clearly indicated on all plan sheets that this boundary is an
approximation.
Surface Water Utility Charges
TheSurface Water Utility Charges are calculated based upon land use type and land area.
Credits may be applied based upon storm water practices being implemented. The following
table illustrates the Storm Water Utility Charges associated with the development of thisparcel.
In an effort to implement the goals of the Bluff Creek Natural Resources Management Plan and
toprovide a financial incentiveto the developer to protectnatural resources and water quality,
staff is recommending that theSurface Water Utility Chargebe waived in lieu of the dedication
of Outlot A and the conservation easement and the installation of appropriate signage.

SUBJECT: Bluff Creek
MnDOT Review # 513 -032
SE side of TH 41 across from Tanadoona Drive
Chanhassen, Carver County
Control Section 1008
Dear Mr. Generous,
Thank you for the opportunity to review the above referenced site plan. MnDOT has
reviewed the site plan and has the following comments:
Traffic:
MnDOT's Access Management Manual classifies TH 41 as a Minor Arterial in an
urban /urbanizing area. Therefore, connections to TH 41 should come from public
streets.
Providing access to the new lots from the existing driveway is a good solution due to the
lack of a localsupporting road network. A large portion of Outlot A is outside of the
wetland andappears to be developable. If it is indeed developable, the plans should
accommodate access to OutlotAfrom the existing driveway.
Please direct any questions regarding traffic to David Sheen (david.sheen@state.mn.us or
651.234.7824) of MnDOT's Metro District South Area Traffic Section.
Design:
The sight distance is adequate looking north andsouth from the current driveway. Please
submit construction plans for review.
Please direct questions regarding this commenttoNancy Jacobson (651- 234 -7647 or
nancy.l.iacobsonna state.mn.us) of MnDOT's Metro Design Section.
WaterResources:
A MnDOT drainage permit will be required. Drainage patternsand existing drainage
rates to MnDOTright -of -way must be perpetuated for the project.
The following information must be submitted for a drainage permit review:
1) A gradingplanshowing existing and proposed contours, along with drainage flow
areas,
2) Drainage area maps for the proposed project showing existing and proposed drainage
areas. Any off -site areas that drain to the project area should also be included in the
drainage area maps. The direction of flow for each drainage area must be indicated by
arrows,
3) Drainage computations for pre and post construction conditions during the 2, 10, 50
and 100 yearrain events,
4) An electronic copy of any computer modeling used for the drainage computations,
5) Relevant construction plan sheets.
Please direct any questions regardingwater resources to Hailu Shekur (651- 234 -7521 or
hailu.shekurna,state.mn.us of MnDOT Metro District's Water Resources Section.
Permits:
As previously stated, a drainage permit is required. Additionally, any use of or work
within oraffecting MnDOT Right -of -way and /or utilities requires a permit. A short form
permit is required for the utilities that are connected within MnDOT Right -of -way.

LEVEL OF CITY DISCRETION IN DECISION - MAKING: The City's discretion in
approving or denying a variance is limited to whether or not the proposed project meets the
standards in the Zoning Ordinance for a variance. The City has a relatively high level of
discretion with a variance because the applicant is seeking a deviation from established
standards. This is a quasi - judicial decision.
Notice of this public hearing has been mailed to allproperty owners within 500 feet.
PROPOSAL /SUMMARY
The property owner is requesting a variance toconstruct a7,120 square -foot accessory structure
for the storage of hay and agricultural equipment. There currently exists on the property a
10,240 square -foot agricultural building. On the applicant's property immediately tothe east of
this site, there is an additional 9,960 square feet of accessory structures. This would give a total
accessory structure square footage of 20,912 square feet. The applicant hasstated that he is
trying to consolidate his fanning equipment on thesite. Currently, some of the equipment is
stored at his son's propertyapproximatelysix miles away. The applicant has also stated that the
intent of the use of the building is strictly for his agricultural operation, storingfarmequipment
and hay within the structure and not for the contracting business. If the applicant limits the use
of the accessory structures to agricultural uses, there should be sufficient storage area for
agricultural purposes.

The properties to the north, south, east and west of the subject property are zoned Agricultural
Estate District (A2). Access to the site is via West 96th Street.
APPLICABLE REGULATIONS
Chapter 20, Article II, Division 3, Variances
Chapter 20, Article X, "A -2 ", Agricultural Estate District
Chapter 20, Article XXIII, Division 1, Section 20 -904, Accessory Structures
On May 10, 2004, the City approved an Interim Use Permit (Planning Case #2004 -12) to allow a
horse riding academy located at 760 West 96th Street subjecttothe following conditions:
1. Adhereto the standards of Chapter Five (5) "Animals ", and Article Three (3) "Horses" of the
Chanhassen City Code.
2. Adhereto the standards of Section 20 -383 (General IssuanceStandards) of the Chanhassen
City Code.
3. The Interim Use Permit would expire upon the site being served by municipal services.
Annually, renewable June 1, a stable permit must be issued for the continued use of the site for
horses.
In researching the property,
staff discovered that a
contracting business is
associated with this location:
Chucks Excavating, Inc.,
www.chucksexcavating.com.
According to their website,
thebusiness was established
in 1995. The picture at right,
from the web site, shows
some of the contracting
equipment on the subject
property.
On August 20, 1984, the City amended the zoning ordinance to allow contractor's yards as a
conditional use in the R -1 a, Agricultural Residence District. At that time, all contractors' yard
owners were contacted regarding the amendment and requiredto apply for conditional use
permits. On May 22, 1989 as part of Ordinance #103, contractor's yardsweredeleted as a
conditional use in the A -2 and BF district regulations, thus ending the short time period in which
the usewas permitted on property other than Industrial Office Park.

ANALYSIS
The current zoning ordinance limits detachedaccessory structures to a maximum of 1,000 square
feet. This ordinance limiting the area of accessory structures in Agricultural Districts was
adopted in May of 2007 in response to contractors purchasing property and building accessory
structures to house their businesses. City Code prohibits the use of accessory structures for home
occupations.
At the time of the ordinance amendment, there were discussions regarding reasonable requests
for structures in excess of 1,000 square feet to be used for a legitimate agricultural use.
Minnesota State Statute 17.81 — Definitions, Subdivision 4 defines agricultural use as "use of
land for the production of livestock, dairy animals, dairy products, poultry and poultry products,
fur bearing animals, horticultural andnurserystock which is underchapter 18H, fruit of all
kinds, vegetables, forage, grains, bees, and apiary products. " It was decided after the
discussions that requests for accessorystructures in excess of 1,000 square -feet would be
reasonable if based on a legitimate agricultural use. The stated intended use of the accessory
structure to be located on the subject property is for storage of hay and farm equipment;
therefore, it would be considered a legitimateagricultural use. However, the applicant also runs
a contracting business for excavating and grading. Once the building is constructed, it will be
difficult or impossible for the city to regulate that the buildings are not used for the commercial
excavating business instead of the approved riding academy and agricultural use.
Staff reviewed city recordstodetermine if any structures in proximity to the subject site were
constructed after the accessory structure limitation was adopted in 2007. In December of 2007,
the Planning Commission approved a177 square -foot variance to exceed the 1,000 square -foot
maximum for accessory structures. The variance was to allow for a 452 square -foot addition to
an existing 725 square -foot detached garage. In 2012, City Council approvedvariances for 620
West 96`h Street structure to construct a 2,560square -foot accessory structure and720 West 96a'
Street toreconstruct and expand by 520 square feet an existing accessory structure, which is a
40 -foot by 37 -foot building with a 40 -foot by 8 -foot covered walkway /lean-to area (1,800 square
feet total).
There was also a structure constructedsometime after 2005, without record of a building permit.
It is unclear if this structure wasconstructed before or after the adoption of the zoning ordinance
in 2007.

The existing driving surface will provide vehicular access to theproposed building. The
proposed location will require some grading. The existing drainage patterns must be maintained.
The proposed grading must be shown with the building permit application.
The applicant has indicated that he may install some retaining walls to minimize the grading
impact. The applicant is aware that retaining walls over 4' high must be designed by an engineer
and requires a Building Department permit. Any retaining wall under 4' requires a zoning
permit.
In conjunction with the building permit application, the applicant will need to revise the survey to
show and calculatethe hard surface coverage of the site. This calculation should include not only
the building, but thecompacted area of the property used for vehicle access and circulation. The A-
2 district permits a maximum site coverage of 20 percent.

As canbe seen from theabove aerial photo, thisneighborhood has a preponderance of accessory
structures in excess of 1,000 square feet. Staff is concerned with the large size of the structure.
Between the existing storage building onthe property as well as an estimated additional 9,960
square feet of buildings on the property where the Worm's home is located, what is the
appropriateamount of accessorystructuresnecessary for the horse operation? As a comparison,
the Deglerfarm, located at the southeast corner of Lyman Boulevard and Adubon Road, which is
located on 40 acres, has a total of 38,155 square feet of accesorystructures. At what point do the
sizes of the accessory structures create a concentration of properties that in the futuremay be
used for business operationsrather than storage for agricultural of residential uses? Does the
City, by permitting the construction of these large accessorystructures, create investment- backed
expectationsthat these structures will be used for commercial businesses, rather than as a
residential accessory use. This concern originates from the possibility that home occupations
may be conductedout of accessory structures. Home occupations are a common cause of
complaint from residents. Theyoften create an excess in parking, traffic and noise. Additionally,
the use of the property as a riding academy will end when sewer and water are availableto the
property. However, the large accessory structure will remain.
As the property is less than ten acres the agricultural exemption from building code requirements
does notapply. Building permit(s), plan review and approvals are required for theproposed
building.

FINDINGS OF FACT
ANDDECISION
IN RE:
Application of Chuck Worm for a variance from the 1,000 square -feet accessory structure
limitation to allowfor a 7,120 square -foot accessory structure on property zoned Agricultural Estate
District (A2) — Planning Case 2013 -10.
On May 21, 2013, the Chanhassen Planning Commission, acting as the Board of Appeals and
Adjustments, met at its regularly scheduled meeting to consider the application. The Planning
Commission conducted a public hearing onthe proposed variance preceded by published and
mailed notice. The Board of Appeals and Adjustments makes the following:
FINDINGS OF FACT
1. The property is currently zoned Agricultural Estate District (A2).
2. The property is guided in the Chanhassen Comprehensive Plan for Residential Low Density.
3. The legal description of the property is as follows:
All that part of theSouth one -half of the Northeast Quarter of Section 26, Township 116,
Range 23 described as follows:
Commencing at a point in the South line of said South one -half of the Northeast Quarter,
distant 330.79 feet West of the Southeast corner thereof; thence Northerly parallel with
the East line of said Southeast one -half of the NortheastQuarter a distance of 512.47 feet
to the point of beginning of the tract of land to be described; thence Westerly parallel
with the South line of said South one -half of the Northeast Quarter a distance of 425.00
feet; thence Northerly parallel to saidEast line a distance of 800 feet more or less tothe
North line of said South one -half of the NortheastQuarter; thence Easterly along said
Northline a distance of 425 feet more or less; thence Southerly along said parallel line to
the ponint of beginning. Cont. 7.82acres.
4. VarianceFindings — Section 20 -58 of the City Code provides the following criteria for the
granting of a variance:
a. Variancesshall only be permitted when they are in harmony with thegeneral purposes
and intent of this Chapter and when the variances are consistent with the comprehensive
plan.
Finding: The subject site is zoned Agricultural Estate District (A2). The purpose of the
request is to exceed the 1,000 square -foot accessory structure limitation to provide
additional storage for hay and farming equipment. There currently exists a 10,240
square -foot shed on the property. This structure is being used for business storageand
not only for agricultural uses; therefore, it is not keeping in harmony with thegeneral
purpose and intent of the A2district. Additionally, the property nextto this site, which is
also owned and used by the applicant, contains approximately 9,960 square feet of
accessory buildings. The agricultural uses could be consolidated in the existing shed.
b. When there are practical difficultiesin complying with the zoning ordinance. 'Practical
difficulties," as used in connection with the granting of a variance, means thatthe
property owner proposes to use the property in a reasonable mannernot permitted by this
Chapter. Practical difficulties include, but are not limited to, inadequate access to direct
sunlight for solar energy systems.
Finding: Currently, the property owners have reasonable use of thesubject property
within the Agricultural Estate District, A2, as a riding academy with a 10,240 square -foot
shed. Literal interpretation of the code does notconstitute a hardship orpractical
hardship.
c. That thepurpose of the variation is not based upon economic considerations alone.
Finding: The stated intent of therequest is for hay and farm equipment storage.
d. The plight of the landowner is due to circumstances uniqueto the property not created by
the landowner.
Finding: The owner has a riding academy and 10,240 square -foot storage shed onthe
property. This does not constitute a unique hardship not created by the landowner since a
structure in excess of 1,000 square feet exists on the site.
e. The variance, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality.
Finding: There are several properties in proximity to the subject property that have
accessorystructures in excess of 1,000 square feet. Theseaccessory structures were
constructed prior to the 2007 ordinance amendment limiting accessory structure size and
are considered to be legal nonconformities. The City has also granted variances for two
structures in excess of 1,000 square feet in 2012. However, this area is guided for
residential low density uses in the future. Such uses do not require accessory structures
in excess of 1,000 square feet.
f. Variances shall be granted for earth sheltered construction as defined in Minnesota
Statutes Section 216C.06, subdivision 14, when in harmony with this Chapter.
Finding: This does not apply to this request.
5. The planning report #2013 -10, dated May 21, 2012, prepared by Robert Generous, et al, is
incorporatedherein.
DECISION
The Chanhassen Planning Commission, acting as the Board of Appeals and Adjustment,
denies Planning Case #2013 -10 a variance from the 1,000 square -foot accessory structure
limitation to allow a 7,120 square -foot accessory structure on property zoned Agricultural Estate
District, A2."

Re: Scott County— Westgate 1 15kVUpgrade
Dear Mr. Haar:
The City of Chanhassen has reviewed the proposed 115 kV transmission line upgrade
around and through the City of Chanhassenand expressedconcerns at the May 16, 2013
public hearing at the Chanhassen Recreation Center. This letter reflects an update to the
city's position on thisproject as stated in my letter dated February 5, 2013.
Certificate of Need
The. City of Chanhassen agrees that a transmission line upgrade is necessary to meet the ,
current and future needs of the communities in the southwest metropolitan area for electric
service.
Routing
Thepreferred alignment should be both a cost - effective solution and minimize social,
economic and environmental impacts.
The City of Chanhassen would support Xcel Energy's Highway 5 Alternative Proposal if the
34.5 kV feed lines along Highway 5 are buried from theWestgate Substation in Eden
Prairie to pole structure #57 in Chanhassen.
The City of Chanhassen would be opposed to thelocation of a second substation at the
intersection of LymanBoulevard (CSAH 18) and Audubon Road (CSAH 15). The
installation of this second substation in thisvery visible area is notwhat the City envisioned
as a gateway to Chanhassen and Chaska. This site, due to its topography, would be difficult
if notimpossibleto screen and, therefore, would be a detriment to the social and economic
development of ourcities. The City of Chanhassen would consider the expansion of the
Bluff CreekSubstation as an alternative if it can be properly screened from the public.
Respectfully,
v T''r
