6. The applicant will be required to dedicate 50 feet of right-of-way(ROW)to the east
abutting Lot 2, as shown on the preliminary plat as "Lotus Woods Drive".
7. The developer shall put into escrow the cost for construction (see condition 14) of the
future street construction of"Lotus Woods Drive" abutting Lot 2 prior to recording of
final plat. The construction of the street will occur when the property to the north of
Lotus Woods Subdivision is developed, or when the city determines it is appropriate to
construct the street, whichever occurs first.
8. Lot 2's driveway elevations and grades shall align with the future street improvement of
"Lotus Woods Drive". A detail showing the elevations and conformity of future street
grades and driveway grades shall be submitted prior to grading.
9. A sign approved by the city shall be placed in the ROW at the corner of"Lotus Woods
Drive" and Big Woods Boulevard indicating a future street will be constructed.
10. Updated plans illustrating the location and connection methodologies of sanitary and
water services for Lot 1 will be required prior to the issuance of building permits. From
as-built information, it appears there was water and sanitary laterals stubbed to the
property in 1975. If these services are currently in use by an existing property, the
developer shall relocate those services to avoid having private service lines running
through the subdivision. If these services are not in use, the developer shall field verify
their locations and serviceability prior to connecting services to the laterals.
11. A fire hydrant shall be constructed on the end of the water main extension in"Lotus
Woods Drive".
12. The applicant shall provide an estimate of cost for the proposed public water main and
sanitary sewer main extensions prior to the recording of the final plat.
13. The applicant shall provide an estimate of cost for the grading and construction of the
future street"Lotus Woods Drive", abutting Lot 2,prior to the recording of the final plat.
14. All newly constructed public utilities shall adhere to the city's most recent Standard
Specifications and Detail Plates, and city review and approval of all construction plans
shall be completed prior to issuance of building and/or grading permits.
15. All required permits from the appropriate regulatory agencies shall be required prior to
construction, including but not limited to the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency,the
Department of Health, and the City of Chanhassen.
16. The development of Lots 1 and 2 will be required to pay all required city WAC and SAC
fees associated with service connections for the rate in force at the time of building
permit applications.
17. The applicant shall enter into a Development Contract.

family park fee rate of$5,800 per dwelling,the total park fees would be$5,800.
