GENERAL BUSINESS
1. 10500 and 10520 Great Plains Boulevard: Approve a Request for Conceptual PUD for a
Mixed-Use Planned Unit Development (PUD) Rezoning on approximately 8.3 Acres
with a Land Use
Ms. Aanenson gave a presentation on Planning Case 2022-04 RSI Marine Concept Planned Unit
Development (PUD) which went before the Planning Commission on March 1, 2022 and was
recommended with a 4-0 approval. The property would be rezoned to PUD which is consistent
with the Comprehensive Plan. The use would be warehousing for boat storage for the marine
business and allows for future redevelopment as a mixed-use district. The project allows the area
to function as a transition between the intersections of Highway 101 and 61 and the high-density
residential to the east. Ms. Aanenson shared about public utilities, noting sanitary and potable
water services are not yet available to the site but that non-potable water can be used for fire
suppression needs. Staff recommends approval with conditions listed in the Staff Report.
Mayor Ryan asked about the access asking if it is a right-in and right-out.
Mr. Bender clarified because it is a County Road all access must be reviewed and approved by
the County. In their review, if the County has concerns they will need to be addressed.
Rob Schatzle, Applicant, also owns a shop in Shakopee and clarified the Chanhassen location
will strictly be storage and he is open to suggestions for the future.
Councilman Campion moved, Councilwoman Schubert seconded that the Chanhassen City
Council approves the Concept PUD 2022-04 subject to the conditions of approval. All voted
in favor and the motion carried unanimously with a vote of 5 to 0.
2. Resolution 2022-31: Establish Election Precincts and Designate Polling Places
City Manager Hokkanen said the City looks at population when drawing precincts and are
looking to reduce from 7 polling places to 6 polling places due to the increase in absentee or
early voting. The City believes it can provide a quality voting experience by going to 6 precincts
which will reduce demand on Staff, the amount of election workers hired, and the amount of
capital equipment needed.
Councilman McDonald moved, Councilwoman Schubert seconded that the Chanhassen
City Council adopts a resolution establishing election precincts and designating polling
places. All voted in favor and the motion carried unanimously with a vote of 5 to 0.
