SECONDED BY: McDonald
A RESOLUTION APPROVING A METES AND BOUNDS SUBDIVISION
CREATING TWO PARCELS
AT 2061 WEST 65TH STREET
WHEREAS, John J. and Kimberly E. Corey have requested a subdivision of the property
into two lots of 15,165 square feet and 15,159 square feet; and
WHEREAS, the Chanhassen City Council held a public hearing on November 24, 2014,
and found the plan consistent with the Chanhassen Comprehensive Plan and Zoning ordinance.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Chanhassen City Council hereby
approves the metes and bounds subdivision of 2061 West 65rd Street (Planning Case #2014-30)
for John J. and Kimberly E. Corey for property legally described as Lot 3, Block 2, Moline's
Addition, Carver County, Minnesota, subject to the following conditions:
Building
The existing structure on proposed Parcel l must be provided with sanitary sewer connection
— permit required.
2. Properties must be provided with separate sewer and water services.
3. Existing Subsurface Sewage Treatment Site on proposed Parcel 1 must be properly
discontinued and abandoned — permit required.
Engineering
The City Attorney shall draft and the developer shall execute a "Grant of Permanent
Easement for Public Drainage and Utility Purposes" document. This document shall be
recorded with the metes and bounds subdivision.
2. A roadway, drainage and utility easement must be dedicated over the portion of the existing
cul-de-sac within the property and 15 feet beyond the edge of the road.
3. Prior to recording the subdivision the developer shall pay the $45 GIS fee: $25 (subdivision)
plus $101parcel.
4. Prior to recording the subdivision a $10,000 security must be provided to ensure that the
street is restored. The security can be released when the city determines that the patch is in
good condition after one freeze -thaw cycle.
5. Sewer and water hookup charges are due for the new lot, a portion of which shall be collected
before the metes and bounds subdivision is recorded:
Water: 1 unit x $1,886/unit = $1,886
Sewer: 1 unit x $664/unit = $664
6. If the final subdivision submittals are received after 2014, all fees shall be recalculated based
on the rates in effect at that time.
7. The remaining 70% of the sanitary sewer and water hookup fees must be paid with the
building permit at the rate in effect at that time.
8. A plumbing permit is required for the private storm sewer; the plumbing inspector will
inspect the connection to the city storm sewer manhole.
9. On Parcel 1, the proposed home style as required by City Code Section 18-40 (4) 2 (iii) is a
slab -on -grade home. Based on Interstate Geotechnical Engineering's observations, the
groundwater elevation is 1.8 feet below the ground elevation of the soil boring. The
developer must verify the surface elevation of the boring location to determine the elevation
of the groundwater; the lowest floor must be minimum three feet above that elevation per
City Code Section 18-40 (4) 2 (i).
Environmental Resource Specialist
1. Tree protection fencing will be required around any preserved trees. It shall be installed prior
to grading and located at the drip lines of the trees.

In accordance with your authorization, I have completed the above referenced investigation
to determine site suitability for the proposed construction. A summary of my findings
together with boring logs and my conclusions and recommendations are presented in the
enclosed report.
I found, as you already have been briefed, more than usual problems with the site. There is
a total of 53/4 & 61/4 at the locations of Boring 1 & Probe 1A, respectively, of unsuitable soil
in the form of topsoil fill, general and varying fill, and buried original humus. Below at first
is a low sand content lean clay, generally dark in color, saturated, very soft to soft (w/ depth).
It is "normally consolidated" (consolidated enough to only support its own weight, not
additional weight of fill soils or structures above). The overburdening fill has not been
inplace long enough to force further consolidation. The moisture content test in this material
indicated nearly 42%, high for a lean clay. This material extends only from 53/4 to 7' in
Boring 1, but from 61/4 to 83/2'in Probe IA. The first 9" of this material in Probe IA is very
soft and is a borderline marl material. All of the aforementioned materials are unsuitable for
structure support should be removed. I do acknowledge that excavators are often reluctant
to excavate further once the buried organic soil is cleared, so understandings should be
inplace at the time of gathering bids.
Base soil below at first is a lean clay, a little sandy, dark gray, saturated, rather soft to
medium. It has inclusions of a poorly graded (biased finer grained) sand with a few fines,
also dark gray, saturated, loose to firm. Deepest soil, commencing at 11' in Boring 1, is a lean
clay, rather sandy, dark gray, low gravel content, medium. Theses materials are glacial till.
The sand inclusions in the upper portion are glacial outwash. All of these base mineral soils
are suitable for residential construction, with conditions. Refusal to auger advancement was
not encountered by boring termination depth of 23', indicating lack of bedrock to this level.
Very importantly, groundwater was found in the main Boring at 1.8' (elev 961/4±). It is
aquifer groundwater, but marginally so. It appears to be contained primarily in the sand
inclusions at 7'+. But it also is coming from the upper soft and very soft clay, possibly from

the lower organic soil. Proper construction on the site (removing the softer lean clay,
promoting good site drainage) will mitigate some of this. Thus, water found presently can
be regarded as a maximum level. Slab grade of the proposed residence should be set in
accordance with City requirements utilizing this level.
I recommend complete removal of all unsuitable soil which is likely to be the fill and buried
organic soil as encountered plus the overly soft clay found in both the boring and probe.
While this amounts only to another V/4 in the vicinity of Boring 1, it is another 2'+ in the
vicinity of Probe 1A. As indicated, excavators may be reluctant to excavate below organic
soil level, but it is necessary (see longer discussion in the report). It is so important that full
time inspection of the excavation by a soils engineer may be necessary. Of course, other
zones of unsuitable soil not represented by the boring and probe could still be encountered
due to the nature of small volume random sampling. Any other depths or zones of unsuitable
soil should be removed as well. You could lower footings somewhat so that you have to
provide less oversizing and not stray onto the neighbor's property. But footings here should
not be lowered so much as to rest directly upon the suitable base soil as it is only marginally
suitable. You need a little fill (2' is recommended) to spread footing loads out with depth.
Footings maybe generally designed allowing the usual 2000 psf foundation bearing capacity,
which will likely result in normal strip or pad footings.
Special attention is again drawn to the advisory that excavations be examined by the Soils
Engineer to verify soil boring results and to document adequacy of site preparation. Again
this is very important as how much soft/very soft clay must be removed will require a high
degree of field judgment. Fill, as used, should be tested for compaction adequacy. Soil
correction should not be abated below slabs in any manner (ie, do not let the excavator try
to "trench around" slab areas).
Thank you for the opportunity to have been of service. If you have any questions on this, or
if I can be of assistance in any additional capacity, do not hesitate to contact me at your
convenience.

This is in response to your contact of recent regarding groundwater on this project. As you
know, I investigated the lot last month and issued a report dated 25 October 2014.1 found
a total of 7 & WY2' of unsuitable soil at the locations of Boring i & Probe IA, respectively,
in the form of topsoil fill, general and varying fill, buried original humus and overly soft clay
or marl. First suitable base soil is a loose to firrr, sand or a soft to medium lean clay, I
recommended removing these materials andplacing controlled fill, noting that you will have
to seriously control groundwater in the process. Regarding groundwater, I found it very high
on this site - at a stabilized level of 1.8', As I understand it, The City of Chanhassen has asked
if this water Ievel will change as a result of site correction.
I used as a stabilized water level the 1.8' found a day after the hand auger phase was
completed. I had encountered water while drilling aard did achieve the base granular soil that
first day. When I diad the power auger phase, water was creeping up to nearly the same level
a few hours later, so I felt that the 1.8' is valid. I believe that, when you correct this lot,
controlling groundwater, and compacting fill, mcstlikely granular, the groundwater will soon
rebound to its original level - IS as found in my boring. If you construct ordinary and good
site drainage on your finished project, groundwater will not be affected by any artificial
recharge the result of your activities.
If you have any additional questions on this, or if I can be of assistance in any additional
capacity, do not hesitate to contact me at your convenience.
