PC 2018 02 20 CHANHASSEN PLANNING COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING FEBRUARY 20, 2018 Chairman Aller called the meeting to order at 7:00 p.m. MEMBERS PRESENT: Andrew Aller, John Tietz, Nancy Madsen, and Steve Weick MEMBERS ABSENT: Mark Undestad and Mark Randall STAFF PRESENT: Kate Aanenson, Community Development Director; and Bob Generous, Senior Planner PUBLIC PRESENT: Rob Martinson 8679 Flamingo Drive Matt Englund 160 Choctaw Circle Greg Hawks 1806 Colonial Lane Sid Levin 2841 Tanagers Lane Bethany Collins 8465 Mission Hills Lane Jennifer Chou 1471 Camden Ridge Matt Eklo 3360 Bavaria Road Mike McGonagill 2451 Hunter Drive PUBLIC HEARING: ARBOR GLEN: CONSIDER A PUD AMENDMENT REGARDING PERMISSIBLE LOT COVERAGE AND DRIVEWAY LOCATIONS. Generous: Thank you Chairman, commissioners. Planning Case 2018-03 is a public hearing for an amendment to an existing planned unit development. The property’s located, the applicant is Golf Lakes Condos Limited Liability Company and it’s to amend the PUD standards to permit additional coverage on the individual lots and also to assign a smaller side yard setback for driveways in this district. The site is located at the southwest corner of Lyman Boulevard and Great Plains Boulevard. It was, it’s total site is 8.49 acres. The development permits villa style homes which are sort of like a detached townhouse development. Total hard cover within the entire project is limited to 25 percent. The final plat was approved on July 24, 2017. At that time the City approved an 18 lot subdivision and the plans and specifications and development contract for that. This reduced the number of lots that were approved from 21 to 18. Outlot D was created as part of the final plat to accommodate a storm water pond on the property outside of the Bluff Creek corridor and outside of any of the wetland buffer. And then Outlot E was enlarged to include all the wetland buffer that was being required by the watershed district to meet their storm water requirements. As part of the preliminary plat, which was approved on July 11, 2016, 21 lots were approved. As you can see from the design this roadway, while still Chanhassen Planning Commission – February 20, 2018 being private was a little bit longer and extending down to the south and it had two smaller forks that were approved. Preliminary approved with that. The 21 lots also had a variance for Lots 1 and 2 on the west side to permit a smaller perimeter setback. As part of the preliminary plat it was pointed out that there was storm water issues that needed to be resolved prior to the final plat approval. Additionally the wetland buffer issues had to be resolved because the wetland buffers were extending up into the lots on the south side of the development. The proposed amendment accounts for the reduction from 21 to 18 lots and reapportions the hard cover within the development. It goes, increases by 350 square feet for individual lot. While these will be higher than 25 percent on the individual lot basis the overall development still remains under the 25 percent hard cover. Additionally this has a 6 foot side yard setback. However our ordinance requires a 10 foot setback for driveways and so it was impractical for them to meet those standards with the house design given that they only had a 25 foot setback from the street to where the house could be built so we’re reducing that side yard setback. And because of the redesign the loss of the 3 of the lots. The 2 lots on the west side no longer require a variance so that element is removed from the PUD standards completely. Those are all the changes in the PUD. Otherwise everything else remains the same. Staff is recommending approval of the amendment to the Arbor Glen PUD design standards and adoption of the Findings of Fact and Recommendation. With that I’d be happy to answer any questions. Aller: Any questions of staff at this time? Commissioner Weick. Weick: Page 3. Section B. The setbacks. Does the driveway side yard setback at, sorry, at 5 feet replace the side lot line setback at 6 feet? And how are those different? Generous: Just for the driveway. Weick: How come we wouldn’t make it 6 feet? Why doesn’t 6 feet work? I guess it’s, because we must have amended the side lot line from 10 to 6 originally. Generous: Yeah as part of the original PUD. Weick: And then we’re saying even from the 6 we need another. Generous: They want to go down the 1 foot more for their driveway on the front. Weick: Just on the driveway. Generous: Just on the driveway. The house is. Weick: That’s why we have two separate lines. Aanenson: Correct. 2 Chanhassen Planning Commission – February 20, 2018 Weick: Okay. That’s it. Aller: Commissioner Madsen. Madsen: So with this redrawing are the lots now totally outside of the wetland buffer? Generous: Yes they are. Madsen: Okay, thank you. Aller: Any questions? Thank you. At this point in time we’ll allow the applicant to come forward and make it’s presentation. Welcome sir, if you could state your name and address and representational capacity that would be great. Matt Eklo: My name is Matt Eklo. I’m representing the owner tonight. I don’t really have a whole lot I guess you know. Again just kind of what Bob…basically what Bob said. You know we had to reduce our lots from 21 down to 18 and then with some of our house designs on the driveways because they’re offset to the one side and they aren’t centered on the houses it, our roof lines will still be at the 6 foot but the driveways will encroach a little bit and so that’s why we’re asking for the 5 foot variance on the driveways. Aller: As a result of the reduction and numbers are the homes themselves larger in square foot? Matt Eklo: No. No. Our plans are, floor plans and designs stay the same. Aller: So your modification is strictly to the driveway and the location of the driveway? Matt Eklo: Yep. Yep. Aller: Any additional questions? Tietz: I just have one. It looks like a better site solution than you had the first time with the reduction of 3 lots. Matt Eklo: Yeah. Tietz: It seems to flow better and. Matt Eklo: Yeah, yeah. Tietz: It looks like your site drainage is going to work better even between the units and how the site lays out. 3 Chanhassen Planning Commission – February 20, 2018 Matt Eklo: Yeah. It did. Tietz: It was a tough solution with 21. Matt Eklo: Yeah. Tietz: And pushing out towards 101 so. Matt Eklo: Yeah. Yeah those Lots 1 and 2 there on that west side of the street would have just been. Tietz: By those little dead head roads on the other end off that, that was difficult so yeah this is a better solution for that site. Now have you begun to rip some frost already? Matt Eklo: No we haven’t. Tietz: But there’s a Cat on site isn’t there? Matt Eklo: Yeah that’s the earth working company’s equipment they left there last fall because they. Tietz: So that’s been there for. Matt Eklo: Yep it’s been there since end of November, first part of December whenever they. Tietz: Okay. I should be more observant. Aller: At least we know you went and visited. Tietz: I did. Aller: Great. Matt Eklo: Thank you very much. Aller: Okay with that we’ll open up the public hearing portion of this item. Again this an opportunity for any individual here to go ahead and come forward and state their name and address and any comments, concerns, questions they might have regarding the project before us. Seeing no one come forward I will close the public hearing. Open it up for commission discussion. I love the fact that it goes to Commissioner Madsen’s question about the setbacks and whether or not they’re in the bluff district and the fact that they’re entirely out was something that I’m very encouraged by and the fact that there is less density in the number of units is again encouraging and the fact that they, when they modified this it was to a small degree 4 Chanhassen Planning Commission – February 20, 2018 it was really a design situation and not something where they were just trying to increase the hard cover which could have caused additional problems so I think all in all is a better design and better project and I’ll be voting for it. Any other comments? Then I’ll entertain a motion. Madsen: I can make a motion. Aller: Commissioner Madsen. Madsen: The Chanhassen Planning Commission recommends approval of the amendment, the ordinance amending the Arbor Glen Planned Unit Development Residential District regulations and approves the Findings of Fact and Recommendation. Aller: I have a motion. Do I have a second? Weick: Second. Aller: I have a valid motion and a second. Any further discussion? Madsen moved, Weick seconded that the Chanhassen Planning Commission recommends the City Council approves the ordinance amending the Arbor Glen Planned Unit Development-Residential District regulations and approves the Findings of Fact and Recommendation. All voted in favor and the motion carried unanimously with a vote of 4 to 0. Aller: Motion carries unanimously. APPROVAL OF MINUTES: Commissioner Weick noted the verbatim and summary Minutes of the Planning Commission meeting dated January 16, 2018. COMMISSION PRESENTATIONS. None. ADMINISTRATIVE PRESENTATIONS. ANNUAL REPORT. Aanenson: Thank you. Mr. Generous is going to go through our annual report and then take a couple items after that. Aller: So the city code requires us to provide this report for those of us that are present, or at home and we have the benefit of staff creating a report that we can utilize because they have all the information before them and then we can adopt it or make modifications as are necessary so thanks for doing that. 5 Chanhassen Planning Commission – February 20, 2018 Aanenson: I would also add, we’ll probably put this in when you have your joint, when the Planning Commission has their joint meeting with the City Council kind of as a talking point for that too. Generous: And additionally if there’s any other items for the 2018 work project if you can have, can send that to us we can incorporate that into the report. Again what this item does is it looks at both what happened last year in 2017 and some of the things that we’ll be looking at in 2018. As you’re all aware we didn’t have as high a number of planning cases as we’ve had in previous years. Aller: It seems like we’ve been busy. Generous: Pardon me? Aller: It seems like we’ve been busy. Generous: Well we’ve been busy but a lot of them have been the same one over and over again. So different aspects of it so there was, the first thing we’ve created our 2018 population estimate at 25,725. This number is an increase over last year of almost 300, over 300 residents in our community. 2017 in the review, again we had fewer cases to review. The application included 2 conditional use permits, 3 planned unit developments, 1 rezoning, 3 site plan reviews, 3 subdivision and 13 variances. That’s where you were spending all your time on variances this past year which was resulted from 22 separate case items that the city reviewed applications from. In 2017 we had a slow building year. There were only 57 dwelling units that were permitted. Historically we average around 200 so you can see it was way down. Part of that problem is we had some projects that had approvals or preliminary approvals in place but they didn’t go forward and we’ll talk about those a little bit later. One of the big ones is the Mission Hills development down on 101 and 212. That’s 134 units senior apartment building. They just recently received final plat approval to go forward with that so we anticipate this spring they will begin construction on that activity. They are in for building permit review on that. Additionally we have the 134 unit Venue development in downtown Chanhassen. They received approval and are in the building, initial building permit review process. A lot of information that has to be reviewed and red lined and then changes to the plan before they can start their construction activity. We’re still waiting. They did consolidate the lots. There were 3 parcels as part of the original review. They’re doing a registered land survey and they will create a separate lot for the commercial building but they don’t have the final description of that and it will be vertically as well as horizontally described on the property so it should be a little bit interesting. But as part of the consolidation they now are able to get a building permit on one lot. They don’t need a separate conditional use permit for that. We reduced, total city wide we have 118 single family lots that are platted and ready for development. Historically that would be maybe a year’s worth of supply. If you look at last year it would be 3 years worth of development but we do see additional development coming in. We have 89 attached single family lots that are in place out there. Most of them are in the West Park development. But there are some, Highlands has 2 6 Chanhassen Planning Commission – February 20, 2018 units and so. For 2018 we have 2 very significant projects that we’re going to be reviewing and working on. The first one hasn’t been in but it’s the Prince property on the west side of Lake Ann and Lake Lucy. The property owners, Kate’s been working on this. Aanenson: I’m just going to give you a little update on that. So a developer has been selected for that. I’m not sure it’s public yet but we have met with the City Council just to talk about some of the framework issues on that. You know the desire for trail connection. Preservation of land around the lakeshore. It’s always been shown as a trail around that property so we anticipate that, there’ll be a work session with the City Council just to kind of talk some of the framework issues. We anticipate depending on what zoning district they go under, whether it’s an RLM or a PUD that there be a sketch plan or concept plan that would go for a public hearing before this group, the Planning Commission and then go up to the City Council. Again the goal of the concept and the original meeting with the City Council is that before you spend a lot of hard engineering costs that everybody’s kind of going the same direction. The council and the developer and so anticipate that coming forward later this spring. Maybe April. Some of those conversations with the City Council and back before this body so I know they’re anticipating getting some entitlement on that yet this year in 2018 which means approvals. I’ll talk about Avienda then too. So Avienda last, the City Council had a special meeting was the last step on getting their final plat. It seemed like we were meeting on that pretty much every Planning Commission meeting but they are, got their watershed approval. Or we gave them the wetland th alteration permit approval in December 18. Now they’re working on getting their storm water put together. The city engineer and myself have been working with Avienda. Again we anticipate them coming in for a grading permit. In order to get the grading permit they have to have their storm water permit in place and so they’re working on the watershed district with that but we have been meeting with them. Again their goal is to try to get some grading out there yet this year and we do anticipate potential building permit later in the fall on a couple of the projects there. I think we mentioned in the past that one of the things that came up on that project was that the overlay district had, we talked about the senior housing that was in the area. That has to be pushed so there will be a PUD amendment on it. That PUD amendment needs to come back for another public hearing because they’re moving some of those buildings around and if you recall on that preliminary plat the lots and blocks were identified with specific uses so if those change they need to come back and get that PUD amendment. Similarly what we just did tonight so you will see that. And we’ve also asked them to review those with the City Council before they come back for the public hearing so there’s concurrence on some of that so we anticipate while we’re in a bit of a lull we anticipate a busy late spring, early summer on both those two projects. Generous: One further thing as part of any of the development, lot development on the site we will have site plan review that comes before the Planning Commission. We’ll have the public hearing process for that so. Next thing is we’ll be working on a lot is the city code. I don’t know a lot, the big one is the surface water management component to our city ordinance. The local water management plan will be finally updated and it requires a lot of changes to city code and then so we’ll be bringing those back to you for the public hearing portion of it. Additionally we 7 Chanhassen Planning Commission – February 20, 2018 continue to look at code and find out about issues and one of it is related to one of the projects that was, came through you for variance approval. Aanenson: Oh yeah. We can talk about it now or we can talk about it when we go through maybe what happened at the last City Council we’ll talk about maybe there but pervious pavers was one of the discussion points. Wetland setbacks. We talked about that so we anticipate there will be a significant amount of code amendments to update our surface water management plan. Our goal is to also try to move towards being a local government unit reviewing that as opposed to now we just do the wetlands and then sending that over to the watershed district so we’re working on that so again you saw the complexity of trying to get that done. There’s 4 watershed districts in the city with different rules and we have to blend with all those so we’re trying to take the route that, the most restrictive ones are out there so our surface water management plan is out for comments and Bob will talk about this when we get to the Comprehensive Plan but we’re hoping that folds back in the same timeline as our Comprehensive Plan so. Aller: It should come in before it’s approved final right? Generous: That’s correct. Aanenson: Correct. Generous: We need to have that in place as part of our plan for adoption. Aanenson: Yeah. You know and each of the watershed districts are looking at different things. We were just talking earlier that the Lower Minnesota is looking at, they’re changing their bluff ordinance to 18 percent. Our 13 percent is a huge issue on the bottom of the bluff there so they’ve backed off of that a little bit but we’re just trying to make sure we’re all in alignment and what the impacts of that would be so we’re doing a lot of mapping and. Aller: Does it look like it will change any of the visioning that we did… Aanenson: No, not now. I think they’ve changed that a little bit and I think what they’re looking at, which we would agree but they’re in an area where there’s a ravine like the Bluff Creek which we’ve concurred. We’ve already got our sensitive Overlay District on that but we’re spending some time on mapping and that and we’ll share that with you as we come back through. Generous: And so then the next part, the City anticipates adopting our 2040 Comprehensive Plan yet this spring. As part of the work session on the first meeting in April we’ll discuss jurisdictional comments and our response to them and any proposed changes that we’re making to the comp plan as a result of jurisdictional review and also review by the Metropolitan Council. As a matter fact I was over there today working with their principle forecaster to come up with some common agreement on our long term forecast. It’s a pretty interesting. We’re very close on most of our numbers. Our housing are within a couple hundred of each other, out to 2040. 8 Chanhassen Planning Commission – February 20, 2018 Our employment is a little high based on their analysis and so there’s a couple things he suggested I look at and I’ll do that. A couple alternatives. Aanenson: I was just going to add too. If you recall kind of the genesis of a lot of that is we do these traffic analysis zones and so a lot of that generates a lot of other factors. Sewer capacity. Employment capacity. Household capacity so I’d like to compliment Bob because Bob’s done this the last 3 generations so we’re awfully darn close and again we were the first one to go through so we got a lot of comments but I think we feel really good about our response to all those comments. We’ll be sharing those with you in April. Generous: April. Aanenson: On our April work session. Generous: So and then if these local water management plan gets completed and through it’s review process the idea is to bring that back together in April so we can adopt them all and recommend that they go to City Council. Go forward to City Council. So and then we’re hoping in May that we will do the adoption resolution with City Council and submit it to the Metropolitan Council for they call it system review. Our consistency with their system plans. So once that’s done then we can start using it but then we’ll have additional ordinance amendments that we need to do to help implement some portions of that. Aanenson: So that we have up to a year to implement any requirement that would be necessary to make the ordinance, our comp plan consistent and like I say I think most of our’s is going to be surface water related so we don’t anticipate a lot of other code enforcement. Although we see stuff bubble up as at the time. Generous: And one of the elements of the plan is specifically that. What are the implementation requirements, any ordinance amendments and so you’ll see lists of things that will need to be revised or reviewed. In surface water management plans probably the big thing you’ll see both separately and as part of our comp plan. Miscellaneous. We will have another joint meeting with the Environmental Commission and Parks Commission late summer. And again we put together a little information about the permit that we did last year. Our two biggest commercial projects were actually Tweet Dental and the water treatment plant. Again this year we’re looking at probably more multi-family development. We could have up to 270 units between those two projects. The downtown apartment and Mission Hills development. Again we try to track our valuation of residential permits over time. You can see the average valuation continues to go up. Aanenson: I was just going to add one other thing too that kind of flies under the radar. We just try to remind the City Council of this. A lot of the permit and inspection time is spent on remodeling so we’ve had a pretty significant one that we worked with DEED. Minnesota Economic Development where Emerson’s doing a significant remodeling of their building. Kind 9 Chanhassen Planning Commission – February 20, 2018 of meeting kind of where their business is headed so that’s a pretty significant remodel there and again some of our other businesses that add on and so we’ve seen some of that this year too so while you’re not seeing new ones, there’s a lot of things that are happening out there. In addition to that people that are finishing lower levels or adding onto their homes too. Generous: Again I should have had them numbered. Also we compare, as part of the financial strategies the City looks at we compare our building permit revenue against the key financial strategies and went through, provided those numbers. Again our construction value’s up slightly from 2016. We’re right in the middle of all there. There’s some community. I found out as part of that that some of these higher permit numbers were due to storms in local communities so they have a lot of roof replacements so just an aside. Building permit activity. We show it by quarters. Again we had 67 total permits. 55 were single family detached and 12 were attached townhouses and those were all the West Park project. Not a lot, there’s a lot of commercial remodeling taking place. There was only one new one and that was the Tweet Dental and then the water treatment plant shows up as an office institutional so it wouldn’t show up under the commercial. Available, lots available at the end of last year we had 207 lots available. Both for townhouse and single family detached housing. I think we had 12 permits for January so things continue to grow and again we anticipate those apartment buildings coming in this year so we’ll see higher numbers. And next historical permits. We’re under our historical average. And development review, we have fewer cases that we reviewed this year. Again we think we spend a lot of time reviewing the same project over and over but we hope to get away from it. The 3 subdivisions that received final plat were Arbor Glen, which came back to you tonight. West Park and the Fawn Hill development which was the connection between the Vistas and, can’t remember. The Fawn Hill development to the north of it so it was the last segment of a roadway that the City’s been waiting almost 20 years to connect. Yeah, just west of Galpin. North of th West 78 Street. Again Tweet Dental, Aldi, Venue were the big commercial residential projects that were reviewed as part of site plan review process. And then this residential development statistic. This is something I developed back in ’94 or ’95 and we sent the copy of this to the Met Council and they use this as part of their plat monitoring program now so, at least we’re very familiar with that. So that’s it. And then finally our mission is to serve the community by providing the resources in an efficient, consistent and effective manner to ensure a safe, healthy and sustainable environment and we rely on the Planning Commission as a gate keeper to do that. Aller: Thank you. Tietz: Can I ask just a question of Kate? Aller: Sure. Tietz: Kate I just want to follow up on the Avienda. Aanenson: Yes. 10 Chanhassen Planning Commission – February 20, 2018 Tietz: I know a lot of our discussions that came in for a couple discussions or reviews over the last year and a half and the mass grading was really a critical topic. Aanenson: Yes. Tietz: And that obviously drives the storm water issue. They had some creative options that they were looking at and highly technical for retention and actually containing it on site and reusing it for irrigation purposes. Is that still in the mix because I’m really concerned that I don’t want to be, you know that’s a pretty serious issue because the hard cover on that site. It was huge hard cover and was a lot of potential off site drainage and you know their proposals were very interesting but when it gets down to dollars and cents are they going to walk away from those and just try to run it all into holding ponds? Aanenson: That’s an interesting comment Commissioner Tietz. The City Engineer and I sat in on one meeting and he’s met with again. We’ve actually asked them to use WSB who we’ve used on the wetlands to get an additional opinion on that. I think some of the access to get to some of those storm water holding areas were pretty deep and steep and we were concerned about how we would maintain those, just to that exact point so we’re trying to re-evaluate that so that’s sliding that project back a little bit. So timeline, because they’re spending some more time in engineering. I think the other issue to your point is, we were concerned too about how they’re going to grade that and what areas they would store some of those piles of dirt and whether they would go all the way up to Lyman and not put a retaining wall in so we’re just trying to work through some of those issues to your exact point so. Tietz: Yeah I recall the discussion was that they wanted to do all their grading and get all their infrastructure in right at one time and have parcels ready to go with all the improvements so if we’re going to have stockpiles and… Aanenson: Yeah, that may be changing so like I say we’re meeting with them weekly on some issues but when we’ve got something more definitive we’ll be happy to share that with you. Tietz: Okay. Aanenson: Again because they are changing some of the uses around you’re going to see this again so, because we wanted to make sure that you approved the site plan before we approve a grading plan that may not match what you want to see out there. Tietz: Okay. Aanenson: So you’re going to see that back again. Tietz: We’ll have another whack at it. 11 Chanhassen Planning Commission – February 20, 2018 Aanenson: Yes you will and to understand all that, it’s pretty complex and so we want to make sure that it works so that’s a good question. Tietz: Okay, thanks Kate. Aller: And I think it’s great if we move it back, as you recall we asked them to do some fixes to their plan originally and so it resulted in pushing back from the wetland. Making modifications. Taking that road down. Aanenson: Yep. Aller: And looking at the wall so I think on behalf of the Planning Commission we’ll thank them for doing that and continue to do that and we look forward to seeing the new plan kind of live up to that model that they began a couple months ago. Aanenson: Yeah. So some of these sites are just much more complex and so it takes longer to get through all the issues. Tietz: They were from the beginning. Aanenson: Right, yeah. We’re on year 3. It’s going to be a good project but we have to make sure that we’re, it’s reviewed correctly so everybody’s doing their due diligence on that so. Tietz: Thanks Kate. Aanenson: Anything else that we’ve missed or that you want to talk about for next year if you don’t have it on your mind right now and want to let us know, or some ideas for a joint tour. I think we’ll go back and look at some projects that are under construction. I think that would be good too so we’ll do that. Aller: And as long as we’re, we’re going to do this joint tour before the final water plan right? Aanenson: Yeah we’ll probably do this. Aller: Maybe focus on some of those issues. Aanenson: Yeah so we can go back and look at, yeah. Because we’ll probably do the tour in August and then yeah. And then hopefully the comp plan is done before that so. Generous: Mid summer. 12 Chanhassen Planning Commission – February 20, 2018 Aanenson: Yeah we’re hoping. We’ll see if they align. So with that Chairman I’ll move into the City Council action update, if that’s alright. Aller: Please. Aanenson: I’ll let Bob talk about Minnewashta Parkway but you spent a lot of time on that at your public hearing and the applicant did appeal that and put a pretty good Leo paste together and we spent some time with our attorney and came to a conclusion that a variance wasn’t needed and I’ll let Bob explain a little bit more on it. Generous: And as part of their appeal they said that the, our ordinance didn’t apply to their property because it was a pre-2007 lot. Parcel and it didn’t have any subdivision approvals in place that established wetland buffers and setback requirements and it didn’t have, it wasn’t required to meet the common ones for all new development and so there’s a, we discovered there’s a defect in our ordinance that does not permit us to enforce that requirement so basically we said, had council make a determination that a variance was not necessary for them to build their property. However they still have to comply with the watershed district regulations and the last I got from them is they need to show and maintain a 25 foot buffer around the edge of the wetland. And so they’re working through the watershed district now to get that and then they’ll come in for their building permit with the City and they have to. Aller: It won’t have to come back before us. Administrative. Aanenson: No. Generous: No. Aanenson: So just to be clear on that too. How that Eric Hurt, the wetland ordinance was changed in the codification that dates, someone should have looked closer at how that existing lots of record so. Aller: So when are we going to see that before us? Aanenson: There isn’t that many lots in that situation. We did a review of that so. Generous: I would think in conjunction with our surface water management ordinance. Aller: We can stick it in and plug the hole. Aanenson: Yeah, correct. Yep. Generous: Because they’re going to do some wetland ordinance amendments in conjunction with that too. 13 Chanhassen Planning Commission – February 20, 2018 Aanenson: So other things that were approved at the council on Monday night. As you recall there was a snow, first time in I can remember that the City Council was cancelled so we actually had quite a few items on so the Motorplex was approved. That was the registered land survey for the 3 lots and also the dedication of the wetlands on the back there. Mission Hills final plat. We talked about that. That was the senior housing with, you saw the amendment to that. That got approved. Then it came back through with a daycare and so that’s all been approved. They’re still working on a couple of tweaks to their water plan too. Quattro Drive, that was the cell tower going up additional 15 feet. Red Cedar Point, one of the residents up there did appeal that request. The council did reaffirm what you had recommended on the variance. And then on th West 79 Street, this was the Panera Bread. I also want to mention too that they did approve kind of a nexus to one of the conditions you had for the fire truck. That they did vacate that easement there so that was also done too so that was one of your directions as a condition so those were the actions at the City Council. Moving right along. I did put in your packet upcoming items. I’ve been trying to put, when people tell me that they may not be there just so th you can see but for the March 6, we did not get any items in and so we will not be holding a th meeting 2 weeks from today. And as of right now we did not receive anything for the 20. As I said some of these projects are sliding as they’re working through some complex issues so just thth stay tuned on the March 20 one. I know on the March 6 there was a few people that were going to be gone but we’re, we will not be holding a meeting but if there’s something that we can make a publication date on, if there’s something that needs to go. Whether it’s internal so stay posted on that. We’ll let you know on that date as we get closer to the time deadline. And then rd as we mentioned earlier on April 3 our goal is to go through all the comments we’ve received on, that would be from all the school districts, the adjoining cities and the Met Council, go through their comments and show you how we’ve addressed those comments and we’ll be th making those changes to the comp plan so our goal is on May 17 to have that comp plan public hearing and that may also slide a little bit so somewhere in there we anticipate Avienda and potentially some concept on the Prince property so we anticipate again a busy April, May and June so. That is all I had for that. And then we did include in there some of the sign permits issued. That’s again because we do not do business license that’s just an indicator of who’s moving into town so I know Panera Bread’s already calling about their sign permit so they’re getting ready so. That’s all I had Chairman. I’d just say I know there’s people here for their interviews. Our goal here then is to adjourn the meeting and we’ll go into the Fountain Conference Room and I’ll take the candidates. I know there’s a drivers class in the one room but we’ll put it in other room and get everybody kind of set up so when we’re ready to adjourn we’ll just move into the Fountain Conference Room. Aller: Any further discussion, comments, questions from the commission? Seeing no business ready to come before us now I’ll move to adjourn. Chairman Aller moved to adjourn the meeting. All voted in favor and the motion carried unanimously with a vote of 4 to 0. The Planning Commission meeting was adjourned at 7:40 p.m. 14 Chanhassen Planning Commission – February 20, 2018 Submitted by Kate Aanenson Community Development Director Prepared by Nann Opheim 15
