POWERS POINTE; LOCATED AT THE SOUTHWEST CORNER OF POWERS BOULEVARD AND THE RAILROAD TRACKS, OUTLOT F, CHANHASSEN LAKES BUSINESS PARK; APPLICANT, UNITED PROPERTIES: A. REQUEST FOR PRELIMINARY AND FINAL PLAT REVIEW OF 16.94 ACRES ZONED INDUSTRIAL OFFICE PARK (IOP) AND SITE PLAN REVIEW FOR A 140,800 SQ. FT. OFFICE/WAREHOUSE BUILDING. B. CONSIDER APPROVAL OF DEVELOPMENT CONTRACT AND PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS FOR A PUBLIC UTILITY. C. CONSIDER APPROVAL OF THE METROPOLITAN COUNCIL ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES SEWER CONNECTION AND MAINTENANCE AGREEMENT. Kate Aanenson: Thank you Mayor, members of the City Council. As you indicated, the agenda shows it as preliminary and final plat and that’s what you are recommending so I did that in motion. I apologize it’s not in the cover memo of the staff report. There’s actually three action items. Then what also besides the preliminary and final plat would also be the site plan approval. There’s also a development contract and approval for an agreement with the Metropolitan Sewer for access to their service line. As indicated this project is on 8100 Powers Boulevard. This property is not only guided. It has a land use designation of office industrial so it’s the appropriate zoning, as is the surrounding property around it office industrial. The entire site is just short of 17 acres. It is an existing outlot of a property that was part of the Chan Lakes Business Park which was platted in 1979 so here we are a number of years later finally getting a project on this. The complexity of this piece, besides the topography is it’s bordered by Riley Creek on the western side of the property. The City owns this parcel here. It was taken, there’s setbacks from that property. In addition you have the Twin Cities and Western Railroad on the north side of the property. There’s also a gas transmission. There’s also a utility easement running along this portion of the property too. So from the center of the site and from Riley Creek there’s a change in topography of 40-50 feet so that’s what’s made it challenging and so we’re excited that a project has come forward advancing this to a final plat. The subdivision itself is actually creating 3 lots. Lot 1 would be the 12.4 acres. That’s the site that the building will go on. Outlot B would be a potential future well site for the City. That’s that small, little .34 acres, and then Outlot A which is the significant amount of tree cover and slope and that will be put in through preservation. It’s difficult to built on that portion of the site. As shown you can see here the slopes and the creek running through the property. Again the shoreland district which is the property that the City owns right here right now, and then there’s steep slopes along here and I’ll show a little bit more detail regarding grading and drainage and the use of retaining walls on the site. There’s also wetlands on the site that were identified. Again the ones around the creek itself will not be disturbed but identification of the wetland as pointed out on this slide here. Identification that would need to be officially delineated and then this drawing also shows where there’ll be the underground water storage for their storm water. Because of the grades it wasn’t possible, there wasn’t any alternative site to put the storm water so it’s going underground. This is some of the reasons why this project has been slightly delayed. As they went out to bid and the numbers came back quite a bit higher so it’s been a lot of pencil sharpening on all parties. Landowners. The City is trying to be creative and the developer trying to get 2 Chanhassen City Council – November 12, 2013 this project to come to fruition. I think as we moved along everybody kind of understood why it’d been sitting there a little while. It was a very complex piece so but we’re happy to say that we believe we’ve got all the issues addressed now regarding that. So grading, one of the issues that was brought out is, as we get toward Riley Creek it’s very steep. You can kind of see in this area over here the steep grades and the trees and that’s where you have to connect to the sewer. Down to the Metropolitan Council’s utility line through that area. Wanted to make sure we minimize impacts in that area so care we want to make sure happens that we preserve that and not into the creek and provide the additional retaining walls. That was some of the other complexity. Additional retaining walls not only from the City’s perspective but also from the gas line added to the complexity. They want to make sure that the grading on the north side didn’t impact the gas line that runs next to the railroad tracks. So what’s shown here, these would be the walls that would be put in place with the City. Some of those walls as we put in the original report may be slightly different but you can see the lengths of some of those walls that were identified in the staff report. For example Wall 1 is 170 feet. Wall 2, these are just the lengths. Wall 2 would be another 175 feet. Wall 3, 190 feet and Wall 4 was 370 feet. Now some of those walls have been adjusted as we looked at ways to minimize some of the grading and reduce some of their costs on those retaining walls. What this doesn’t show is the additional wall that was required from the gas company to provide protection from their buried gas line there. Mayor Furlong: Ms. Aanenson, if I may. Kate Aanenson: Yep. Mayor Furlong: On that wall on the north property line there, along the railroad tracks then, will the drive lane there be below the wall or above the wall? Kate Aanenson: The grading’s actually I believe on the outside of this, right along the property line so they should be able to, the driveway’s still in place. That was another issue that was worked out in the beginning. They wanted full access there because you’re coming underneath the bridge there. The sight lines weren’t that great so they County did acquiesce and say they could have a right out, which help frees up their access for their trucking movements in that property. In the project. Mayor Furlong: And I guess what I’m trying to clarify is the drive lane there, the loading docks there on the north side of the building. Is that at a lower elevation than where the railroad tracks are and where the. Kate Aanenson: Quite a bit higher. I’ll show you a perspective in a moment. Mayor Furlong: Quite a bit higher. Kate Aanenson: Yep. Quite a bit higher. I’ll show you in a perspective. Mayor Furlong: Thank you. Applicant: Kate it’s lower. Kate Aanenson: Oh excuse me. Applicant: Yeah, the truck dock is lower than the tracks. Kate Aanenson: Oh I’m sorry. Yeah, I’m sorry from Powers Boulevard, it is lower. Okay. 3 Chanhassen City Council – November 12, 2013 Councilman Laufenburger: The wall prevents erosion from the tracks to the driveway on the retail. Kate Aanenson: Well also the gas company didn’t want additional dirt buried on top of their gas line so they didn’t want any grading because they had a construction easement to grade into that but they didn’t want additional dirt buried on top. Mayor Furlong: Maybe you could show us when you get to that point. Kate Aanenson: Sure. So this is a perspective from Powers Boulevard. You can see this site line, so you’re significantly higher going up. If you look at the bottom picture, the sight line from Powers Boulevard, the change in elevation. So one of the issues for the, that we looked at was you would see rooftop equipment. This site is really has limited visibility from all perspectives except for Powers Boulevard and the property to the north which has visibility to the loading docks and we’ll talk about that when we get to landscaping but they do have parapet walls that will be 12 to 24 inches so you shouldn’t see any rooftop equipment. So here’s the look at the architecture. Building materials are here. Highly articulated. We went through the findings for the subdivision and believe that it meets and exceeds all the standards that we have for the site plan review. Again highly articulated materials and would support the approval of that. There’s some additional drawings here that show their perspective. Again this would be on the south side. Again limited visibility because you’ve got that large stand of trees in addition to the preservation, the other 4 acres that the developer’s proposing to preserve. So again this is office warehouse showroom so the parking is adjusted to meet that, and here’s another perspective. Coming up off of Powers Boulevard on the northern access. One of the things that we did put in here, looking at this property, you’re connecting to a city trail on Powers Boulevard. That a sidewalk be added along this portion of the. Of that and that would get you down to the city trail and so that still needs to be incorporated into the plans and then the other thing, there’s some deficiency here. This is the most visible area then to the property to the north where they would see the loading docks. So this is where you’re asking about the change in grade from the railroad tracks. Mayor Furlong: Right. Kate Aanenson: Right, so you’re right. At that elevation. Mayor Furlong: How much higher are the railroad tracks there above the surface, the drive area? Kate Aanenson: Yeah, about 15 to 20. Mayor Furlong: 15 to 20? And how tall is the building itself? Kate Aanenson: Yeah, correct. 24 feet. So with that we did put the findings in for the subdivision and for the architecture. Again worked through a lot of issues here the last few weeks trying to resolve some grading issues and retaining wall issues but I think we’ve accomplished that and we also have a development contract for you to approve so there’s the preliminary plat. Preliminary and final plat and the approval of the development contract and then approval of the Metropolitan Council Environmental Services so it should say preliminary and final plat on that first one. Mayor Furlong: Okay. Kate Aanenson: So with that I’d be happy to answer any questions that you may have. Mayor Furlong: Thank you. Any questions for staff at this time? Mr. Laufenburger. 4 Chanhassen City Council – November 12, 2013 Councilman Laufenburger: I just have one Mr. Mayor. Kate is this action tonight, specifically I’m referring to the approval of the Met Council Environmental Services Sewer and Maintenance Agreement, is the action the City takes tonight final action or does this action have to go in front of the Metropolitan Council? Kate Aanenson: I’m not sure if it’s in the, what it states in the development contract. If that’s been approved. Maybe the City Engineer. Paul Oehme: Mayor, City Council members. I think that’s a staff approved agreement for the connection so it’s. Mayor Furlong: At the Met Council level. Councilman Laufenburger: Oh, it’s already been approved and we’re just using language that they? Paul Oehme: Yeah, it’s a standard agreement that Met Council gives to local entities to connect into their sewer system. Kate Aanenson: I think one of the issues that came up too is that we need to provide an additional easement because the Metropolitan Council wanted to make sure that they had an easement to get to that because it does become public. Originally it was going to be a private connection and that was one of the additional things that we put into the development contract so there is an easement covering that because it now becomes a public. Councilman Laufenburger: Okay. And I lied. I have a second question Mr. Mayor. I noticed that there are park fees associated with this. Kate Aanenson: This is correct. Councilman Laufenburger: Is that correct? Kate Aanenson: Yes. Councilman Laufenburger: But there is no, there’s no park land give away or anything or exchange or anything like that, is that correct? Kate Aanenson: No. No. For the conservation of the additional 4 acres, that was incorporated into the stormwater fees because that area is being preserved and have the trees. Councilman Laufenburger: That was the discount to the stormwater fees. Kate Aanenson: Correct. Councilman Laufenburger: Was the $60,000 or something like that. Kate Aanenson: That’s correct. Councilman Laufenburger: Okay. Thank you Kate. Mayor Furlong: Any other questions for staff at this point? I want to get back to questions on the northern landscaping. It’s requirement number, or condition number 3 under landscaping. Page 17 of the 5 Chanhassen City Council – November 12, 2013 Planning Commission staff report and I guess my question is, is this, it talks about the north and east property lines so it’s the green area that you have there. Does the east property line, does that include Powers Boulevard? Kate Aanenson: Correct. Mayor Furlong: For this condition. Kate Aanenson: Yeah. I think one of the things. Mayor Furlong: And is there, I’m sorry. Go ahead. Kate Aanenson: One of the things we looked at with the change in grading is that probably putting some sort of native vegetation up there. Something that doesn’t have to be mowed because now we’re going to be a little bit steeper right there so we’ll be working with the applicant to put something in there that’s really low maintenance. Probably it’s not somewhere you want to mow but something that’s a vegetative cover. Because of the elevation that I showed you, you’re really not going to have a lot of sight lines of that. Mayor Furlong: Right. Kate Aanenson: So I don’t think that it’s a big issue as really modifying it to the back. We did go over to the parking lot to the north of that site and you are looking towards those loading docks, and I know that was a complexity with the retaining wall. Trying to find that space so we are working with the developer to find that right balance on that. Mayor Furlong: And I guess that’s the question not, on the property to the north and it looks like that’s the back end, the loading docks of another industrial building. Kate Aanenson: Yeah. Mayor Furlong: Is that property higher or at the same grade as the railroad tracks or is that also lower? Kate Aanenson: It’s also lower. I can show that in the first photo. Yeah, the building sits in the middle of that. Mayor Furlong: Yeah. Kate Aanenson: But then there’s parking on either side. Mayor Furlong: Yeah. Kate Aanenson: So again trying to find that. It’s definitely lower. Mayor Furlong: I guess my question there, if there’s a question is buffer yard to me typically means we’re trying to buffer or hide or affect the view and I’m not sure that there is any view or if we’re protecting views from parking lots and loading docks, maybe we don’t need to be doing that if there’s some low maintenance planting that can be done up there. Minimize costs. I think that would make sense from a, and I don’t know if that condition needs to be adjusted for that. Kate Aanenson: Probably should modify that. 6 Chanhassen City Council – November 12, 2013 Mayor Furlong: Or am I missing something there on that from a site standpoint or? Kate Aanenson: Well there was a parking lot there and so we were just trying to find that right balance and again this condition was put in place before we added, before the developer was notified that he had to put a retaining wall and so no, I think if we want to modify that just to say to work with the applicant to provide screening so we’ll see how that retaining wall works out. Mayor Furlong: Okay. Kate Aanenson: They’ve worked, tried to get that modified. Reduced a little bit the size of that retaining wall and the length of it, yeah. Mayor Furlong: And again I think my question is one where we’re buffering a parking lot and loading dock from a parking lot and loading dock so I don’t know how much we need to be buffering from a view standpoint. But certainly from erosion and, would be appropriate. And so on the east side, is that the Powers Boulevard side? Kate Aanenson: Correct. Mayor Furlong: In this condition. And will the grading plan take out trees all the way on the east side of the lot? Will that have to be replanted? Kate Aanenson: Quite a bit of that. Mayor Furlong: Or will some of those current trees be preserved? Kate Aanenson: Well I think where the City is interested in the well site, I think the City Engineer’s asked that we not grade a majority of that but I think with the change in grading, some of that is going to be changed so that’s why we’re saying it needs some sort of ground cover. Some sort of. Mayor Furlong: And that makes sense. Especially on the east side I think. Kate Aanenson: Right. Mayor Furlong: You know appropriate landscaping there. Kate Aanenson: So when we say landscaping now, what we’re talking about now is probably some sort of native vegetation. Mayor Furlong: On the east side? Kate Aanenson: On the east side. Yeah. Mayor Furlong: Okay, because there are trees there now correct? Kate Aanenson: Correct. But that. Mayor Furlong: And maybe if you want to address this when you come up. Kate Aanenson: Yeah. Yeah. 7 Chanhassen City Council – November 12, 2013 Brandon Champeau: Yeah I’m Brandon Champeau. I’m with United Properties. Mayor Furlong: Thank you. Good evening Mr. Champeau. Brandon Champeau: The developer and owner for the property. Or future owner for the property. Thank you Mr. Mayor and council members. Yeah, the east side of the property the, I don’t want to say majority but I would say everything except for the entry roads, the main entry road and that secondary access, we’ll be conserving all the trees inbetween there, or conserving as much as possible. Mayor Furlong: Okay. Brandon Champeau: The way my civil engineer described it, he said there’ll still be a forest in front of the, just along Powers Boulevard there so. Mayor Furlong: Okay. So again I think to the specific issue of landscaping on the northeast side, working with staff but understanding the direction. I don’t know if there’s anything you want to add on that specific issue. And then I would like to have you have an opportunity to address the council on anything else you’re interested in at this point. Brandon Champeau: I guess yeah, the only thing I would add is that, well we appreciate all the work that Kate and Alyson and her staff have done. Mayor Furlong: Thank you. Brandon Champeau: This was a very challenging site to figure out and it came down to the wire last week but we’re excited about the outcome and I think you know where we’re at right now is going to allow us to proceed with this and as a company we’re very excited to get going so. Mayor Furlong: Great. Anything else you can tell us about the development of the property? Brandon Champeau: Our plan would be to break ground in a couple weeks on it. We still haven’t closed on the property so obviously we have to do that first but that will be the next step after tonight and no, I mean I guess it’s an exciting project. This is a market that is really difficult for tenants to find space in and especially newer space. I mean it’s just an established market so we’ve had a lot of interest, even you know with companies not even knowing if we’re going to proceed. We’ve got a lot of people interested in the project so we’re really excited to get going. Mayor Furlong: Thank you. Any questions for Mr. Champeau from the council? Kate Aanenson: I did kind of gloss over but it’s 140,000 square feet. We haven’t done that much raw so it’s very exciting. Mayor Furlong: Right, it’s a significant. Kate Aanenson: Yeah, and he hasn’t shared with you but he has some strong interest in some significant users so we’re pretty excited to again trying to keep this going and get it graded and move forward so. Mayor Furlong: Alright, thank you. Mr. Laufenburger, did you have a question? Councilman Laufenburger: No. 140,000 I’m excited about the opportunity here. 8 Chanhassen City Council – November 12, 2013 Mayor Furlong: Absolutely. Any other questions for Mr. Champeau? Thank you. Brandon Champeau: Thank you. Mayor Furlong: Appreciate it. Let’s bring it back to council then for comments and discussion. Thoughts and comments. Mr. Laufenburger, why don’t you just start. Councilman Laufenburger: Yeah, I did have a question for Mr. Oehme. The Outlot B, which is identified as a potential site for a future well, is there anything that we have to do to validate or qualify that particular location for the well? Are we confident that the aquifer’s down there and a reasonable length, etc? Paul Oehme: Yep Mr. Laufenburger, it was probably about 5 years ago, 6 years ago that the City did initiate a well study for the community and this site was identified as a high valued site for future wells. For a future well. You know especially if the future well would be a Jordan well, the Jordan in that area is fairly consistent. It’s kind of a known quantity so we’re fairly confident that if a well would go in there in the future, especially in a Jordan, it would be a good producer. Councilman Laufenburger: And the size of the Outlot is sufficient to support a well and all of the machinations that would be needed for that, is that correct? Paul Oehme: Right, I believe it is. The size of the outlot was sized specifically for the necessary setbacks. Setbacks that are required for the… Councilman Laufenburger: Thank you Mr. Oehme. Well Mr. Mayor I, as I was reviewing this in the packet and heard rumblings about this, this is a wonderful, will be a wonderful addition. I’m excited for United Properties and all of the people that potentially will be stepping in here for, be it for retail or for warehousing, as Mr. Champeau has said. There’s need for this type of space, especially new space. Get some new blood, new business blood in the community so I will support this. Thank you. Mayor Furlong: Thank you. Other comments? Councilwoman Ernst. Councilwoman Ernst: Sure. Well it has been indicated. You know it’s been a challenging project and I just appreciate the collaboration with everyone involved to make such a great project so I would definitely support the project as well. Mayor Furlong: Thank you. Any thoughts Councilwoman Tjornhom? Councilwoman Tjornhom: Yeah, I definitely will be supporting it also I think for all the reasons that Councilman Laufenburger already mentioned so. Mayor Furlong: Thank you. Mr. McDonald, any comments? Councilman McDonald: No, I would just go along with the rest of my colleagues on the council. I think it’s a good opportunity and welcome to the neighborhood. Mayor Furlong: Yeah, I concur. Appreciate, I know that it was a challenge as was mentioned and thank you so much for working and dealing with the challenges and find solutions. This is going to be a nice development and opportunity for more businesses to locate here or expand in the city which is what we’re always looking for and so very much welcome and look forward to seeing it get going here in the next 9 Chanhassen City Council – November 12, 2013 weeks. I hope that works out. So with that let’s, why don’t we, unless there’s an objection I think we can deal with all these items in a single motion. So Kate, do you mind putting that up, that motion up there again and this is both preliminary and final for A, is that correct? Kate Aanenson: Correct. That’s correct. Mayor Furlong: Entertain a motion. Would somebody like to make a motion? Councilman McDonald: I’ll do it. Mayor Furlong: Mr. McDonald. Councilman McDonald: I make a motion that the City Council approves a preliminary plat of 16.94 acres into one lot and two outlots. Powers Pointe would be the name. Site plan approval for construction of a 140,000 square foot office warehouse building and adoption of the attached Findings of Fact. Also approval of the development contract and plans and specifications for a public utility. And finally approval of the Metropolitan Council Environmental Services Sewer and Maintenance Agreement. Mayor Furlong: Thank you. And just for clarification, for A it would be preliminary and final plat, is that correct? Kate Aanenson: That’s correct. Mayor Furlong: Is what we’re looking for tonight Mr. McDonald? Councilman McDonald: Yes. Mayor Furlong: And then if we can include under condition 3 under landscaping, to pick up the comments from the notes. Our earlier comments, if that’s okay. Councilman McDonald: I would concur and that’s fine with me. Mayor Furlong: Thank you. Councilman Laufenburger: Second. Mayor Furlong: Motion’s been made. Motion’s been seconded. Thank you Mr. Laufenburger. Any discussion on the motion? Hearing none we’ll proceed with the vote. Councilman McDonald moved, Councilman Laufenburger seconded that the Chanhassen City approve a Preliminary and Final Plat of 16.94 acres into one lot and two outlots Council (Powers Pointe); Site Plan Approval for construction of a 140,000 square-foot office/warehouse building as shown in plans dated received September 20, 2013 subject to the following conditions, and adoption of the attached Findings of Fact.
