The Planning Commission and staff are recommending approval of the preliminary plat, site plan with variances for fenestration, and sign variance to permit signage on the western building elevation based on the Findings of Fact and Recommendation attached as pages 16 through 19 of the staff report. At the Aug. 19, 2003 Planning Commission (PC) meeting, the PC was concerned with the existing median opening to the proposed development along Century Blvd. The PC recommended that access to the site be limited to a right-in/right-out access which, in effect, would require that the median opening be closed. Staff cannot support this condition since the median opening was approved as a part of the Arboretum 4th Addition and its closure is a condition of the development contract, not subject to an individual property's site plan review. Staff believes the access should be permitted with the same restrictions as were permitted for Arboretum Business Park 4th Addition (Century Blvd. Court, KinderCare and U.S. Bank). .PLANNING COMMISSION SUMMARY The Planning Commission held a public hearing on September 2, 2003, to review the proposed development. The Planning Commission voted 7 to 0 to recommend approval of the subdivision, site plan with variance, and sign variance as provided in the motions on pages i0 (preliminary plat), 13 (site plan) and 15 (sign variance) of the staff report. The summary and verbatim minutes are item lb of the City Council packet for September, 22, 2003. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends adoption of the motions on pages 10, 13 and 15 of the staff report with modification of condition 12 (page 12) of the subdivision motion to incorporate staff' s original condition regarding access.

IL, PROPOSAL: LOCATION: APPLICANT: Request for subdivision approval to create two lots on 5.13 acres of land and site plan review for a three-story,. 89 unit hotel on 3.01 acres with variances for signage and design standards, Holiday Inn Express -- Southeast comer of Hwy. 5 and Century Blvd. Steiner Construction Services, Inc. 3610 County Road 101 Wayzata, MN 55391 (952) 473-5650 Steve Slowey, WYLS, LLC P. O. Box 113 Yankton, SD 57078 (605) 665-8489 .W PRESENT ZONING: PUD, Planned Unit Development - Office Industrial Park 2020 LAND USE PLAN: Office/Industrial ACREAGE: 5.13 acres DENSITY: 0.39 F.A.R. SUMMARY OF REQUEST: The applicant is requesting preliminary plat approval to subdivide a 5.16 acre lot in to two lots and site plan review for a three-story, 89 unit hotel on 3.13 acres with variances for signage (permitting a sign on the east wall of the building which does not have street frontage) and dbsign standards (permitting 35 percent fenestration on the north elevation, rather then the required 50 percent fenestration). Notice of this public hearing has been mailed to all property owners within 1,000+ feet. LEVEL OF CITY DISCRETION IN DECISION-MAKING: The City's discretion in approving or denying a preliminary plat~is limited to whether or not the proposed plat meets the standards outlined in the Subdivision Regulations and Zoning Ordinance. If it meets these standards, the City must approve the preliminary plat. This is a quasi-judicial decision. / /~, \ Holiday Inn Express September 2, 2003 Page 2 The City's discretion in approving or denying a site plan is limited to whether or not the proposed project complies with Zoning Ordinance requirements. If it meets those standards, the City must then approve the site plan. This is a quasi-judicial decision. The City's discretion in approving or denying a variance is limited to whether or not the proposed project meets the standards in the Zoning Ordinance for a variance. The City has a relatively high level of discretion with a variance because the applicant is seeking a deviation from established standards. This is a quasi-judicial decision. PROPOSAL/SUMMARY The applicant is proposing the subdivision of one lot into two lots, one lot 2.03 acres and the other 3.13 acres, and development of one of the lots with a 53,000 square foot, three-story, brick, 89 unit hotel. The proposed subdivision complies with the requirements of the subdivision ordinance. The property was previously prepared for development with the interim use permit for the initial site grading. The applicant will be installing public water, sanitary sewer, and storm water improvements as part of the development. The proposed site plan complies with the requirements of the city code with the exception of the fenestration requirements on the northern elevation. The applicant has increased the amount of windows by 12 percent, but cannot comply with the 50 percent requirement due to the guest rooms. Staff supports the 15 percent variance for windows on the northern elevation. Staff is recommending approval of the subdivision and site plan. Signage is permitted on the street frontage of buildings by city code. By code, the applicant could provide wall signage on only the northern elevation of the hotel building. The applicant is requesting a sign variance to permit wall signage on the easterly building elevation, which does not have street frontage. Lot 1 will be permitted to have signage on two elevations, since it has street frontage on both Highway 5 and Century Boulevard. Staff is recommending denial of the sign variance. BACKGROUND On April 14, 2003, the Chanhassen City Council approved an ordinance amending the Planned Unit Development for Arboretum Business Park adding Personal Services as a permitted commercial use and as the Third Amendment to the Arboretum Business Park Development Contract/PUD Agreement. On December 10, 2001, the city approved an amendment to the Planned Unit Development (PUD #92-6) Development Contract/PUD Agreement for Arboretum Business Park incorporating printing as a light industrial use; permitting indoor recreation/health clubs and recording studios in the existing office-industrial buildings in the project; and prohibiting vocational schools, public buildings (except in Outlots A and B), screened outdoor storage, and food processing. Holiday Inn Express September 2, 2003 Page 3 On September 24, 2001, the Chanhassen City Council approved Interim Use Permit (IUP) #2001-1 to grade a portion of the Arboretum Business Park development and Conditional Use Permit (CLIP) #2001-8 to permit development within the Bluff Creek Overlay District. The IUP and CUP included this property. On July 28, 1997, the City Council approved the following: the ordinance for PUD #92-6 rezoning approximately 154 acres from Agricultural Estate, A2, to Planned Unit Development, PUD, and the PUD #92-6 granting final plat approval for Arboretum Business Park. On June 23, 1997, the City Council approved a Resolution that the AUAR be revised to incorporate the summary of issues and mitigation plan contained in the staff report, that the revisions to the Traffic Study prepared by SRF outlined in the staff report be incorporated into the study, and that the revised AUAR be adopted by the City. On May 27, 1997, the City Council approved the following: · Approved the first reading for rezoning the property from Agricultural Estate, A2, to Planned Unit Development, PUD. Approved the preliminary PUD #92-6 for an office/industrial business park and preliminary plat approval for 12 lots, two outlots and associated right-of-way subject to the plans dated April 4, 1997, revised May 23, 1997,with conditions. · The City Council approved Wetland Alteration Permit for Gateway Business Park subject to the conditions of preliminary PUD #92-6 approval. · The City Council approved Interim Use Permit #97-1 for Gateway West Planned Unit Development site subject to conditions. APPLICABLE REGULATIONS · Chapter 18, Subdivisions · Arboretum Business Park Development Standards · Site Plan Review, Chapter 20, Article II, Division 6 · Design Standards for Commercial, Industrial and Office-Institutional Development, Chapter 20, Article XXIII, Division 7 · Section 20-1303 (3) states that wall business signs shall be permitted on street frontage for each business occupant within the building only. SUBDIVISION REVIEW The proposed subdivision creates two lots where one was previously proposed. The creation of an additional lot beyond that one that received preliminary plat approval requires preliminary and final Holiday Inn Express September 2, 2003 Page 4 plat approval, rather than only final plat approval. Both lots exceed the minimum requirements of the subdivision ordinance. The development of the individual lots must comply with the Arboretum Business Park Development Design Standards. STREETS No public streets are proposed as part of this project. The applicant is proposing full access to the site from Century Boulevard. As the access will service the two lots, cross-access easements will need to be obtained and recorded against the lots. The shared drive aisle through the site will be a private street since it serves multiple lots. As such, the road must be a minimum of 26-feet wide, built to a 9-ton design, and enclosed within a 40-foot wide private easement. An internal sidewalk system shall be developed to bring pedestrians from the public trails on the west and (future) south sides into the site. The full access driveway onto Century Boulevard will be allowed; however, should the driveway cease to operate in a safe manner in the opinion of the property owner, or if any of the following conditions are met, the property owner shall be assessed 100% of the costs incurred to correct the conditions in a fashion acceptable to the City of Chanhassen: a. Level of service "F" at the intersection during peak AM and PM times. b. Level of service "D" or below at the intersection during non-peak times. c. Significant accidents that are attributed to the configuration of the intersection occur that indicate a mutually recognized safety concern at the intersection. TRAILS Steiner Development shall be responsible for planning, engineering, and constructing the "wetland trail." This trail follows an alignment generally described as the western edge of Outlots A & B. Connection points for this new trail construction shall be the terminus of the Trotter's Ridge trail and Autumn Ridge trail. Portions of said construction will occur off-site of the Arboretum plat within land owned by the City of Chanhassen. If the trail alignment is within property not owned by the City, then the developer shall dedicate a 20 foot wide trail easement centered on the trail alignment. Trail construction shall be completed in two phases: one north of Coulter Boulevard and one south of Coulter Boulevard. Each phase shall be completed contemporaneously with adjoining improvements. In consideration for this trail construction, the city shall compensate Steiner Development full costs of trail construction plus a 10% design and construction management fee. Bid documents, including plans and specifications, shall be approved by the Park & Recreation Director and City Engineer prior to soliciting bids. Project bidding shall occur in a competitive environment with a Holiday Inn Express September 2, 2003 Page 5 minimum of three bids being received. The results of the bidding process shall be reviewed with the Park & Recreation Director and City Engineer prior to award. Cash payment for trail construction shall be made from the City of Chanhassen to Steiner Development upon completion, inspection, and acceptance of the trail. In lieu of crediting trail fees against said trail construction, full trail fees shall be collected per city ordinance for all lots in the Arboretum Business Park. Said fees shall be deposited into the city's trail dedication account--the same account that will fund the cash payment being made to Steiner Development for trail construction. The current submittal refers to the required trail as "future," does not depict the entire segment, and fails to show a typical construction cross section for the trail. I plan on meeting with the applicant's engineer on the property to review these issues. Please ensure that these conditions are being met on future submittals from the applicant. COMPLIANCE TABLE Area (acres) Frontage (feet) Depth (feet) Code 1 200 200 Lot 1 2.032 223 356 Lot 2 3.126 439 326 Total 5.158 GRADING, DRAINAGE AND EROSION CONTROL Minimal grading for the site is being proposed with a berm along the north side of Lot 2. The applicant should be aware that maximum grading slope is 3:1 and any off site grading will require a permit from the owner. Storm Water Management The proposed development is required to maintain existing runoff rates. Storm water calculations should be submitted to ensure the downstream storm water infrastructure is sized adequately for the proposed development. Drainage will be routed to an existing storm manhole on the west side of Century Boulevard. The applicant will need to submit proposed storm sewer sizing calculations showing that the existing storm sewer will accommodate the runoff. Easements Drainage and utility easements should be provided over all existing and proposed storm water infrastructure. Holiday Inn Express September 2, 2003 Page 6 Erosion Control Erosion Control Note #4 should include straw mulch (MNDOT Type 1 mulch) application with seed for stabilization. Currently, the note reads "All disturbed areas shall be stabilized with seed, sod or rock base." Seed without mulch is not considered stabilization under the NPDES permit. Category 3 (straw or wood fiber) blanket should be applied following seeding in the proposed swale in the northeast corner of the site. Sediment Control The silt fence used should be heavy-duty machine sliced silt fence, metal T-posts with 4 to 6 foot spacing. Existing vegetation should be conserved as much as practicable while installing and during construction. Erosion control measures and site restoration shall be developed in accordance with the City's Best Management Practice Handbook (BMPH). Staff recommends that the City's Type 1II erosion control fence, which is a heavy-duty silt fence, be used for the area adjacent to the existing wetland just south of the site. In addition, erosion control blankets will be required on the steep slopes on the site. The silt fence end in the southwest coruer of the site should be angled up slope to inhibit water from flowing around the silt fence. Inlet control is needed following installation of inlet structures. Inlet control methods will be varied before and after pavement of the parking lots. Before pavement, inlet protection could consist of heavy-duty mono-mono silt fence with 4 foot spacing of metal T-posts and 1" rock around silt fence material. After paving of parking lots, mulch socks, sand bags or rock and wire could be used as temporary inlet control. Surface Water Management Fees Based on the proposed developed area of 5.13 acres, the total SWMP fee, due payable to the City at the time of final plat recording, is $51,772. Other Agencies Beginning March 10, 2003 all developments disturbing 1-acre or more or part of a contiguous development which will disturb more than 1-acre require a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit from the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA). The owner/operator of the proposed development must apply for and receive the NPDES permit prior to beginning construction activities. Any development disturbing more than 1-acre and creating more than 1-acre of impervious surface must also have permanent storm water treatment. The Arboretum Business Park PUD addressed permanent storm water treatment as a part of the overall review process. Holiday Inn Express September 2, 2003 Page 7 The applicant should apply for and obtain a permit from the Riley-Purgatory-Bluff Creek Watershed District and comply with their conditions of approval. UTILITIES The proposed sanitary sewer and water-mains in the main drive aisle will be considered public utility lines since they will serve more than one lot. A minimum 35-foot wide public easement will be required over the public sewer and water-main. The end of the public sewer and water- main shall be at the property line between Lot 1 and Lot 2. The underlying property has been previously assessed for sewer, water and street improvements. The remaining assessment due payable to the City is $137,272.40. This remaining balance may be re-spread against the newly platted lots on a per-area basis. In addition, the sanitary sewer and water hookup charges will be applicable for each of the new lots. The 2003 trunk hookup charge is $1,440 for sanitary sewer and $1,876 for water-main. Sanitary sewer and water-main hookup fees may be specially assessed against the parcel at the time of the building permit issuance. Public utility improvements will be required to be constructed in accordance with the City's latest edition of Standard Specifications and Detail Plates. Detailed construction plans and specifications will be required at the time of final platting. The applicant will also be required to enter into a development contract with the City and supply the necessary financial security in the form of a letter of credit or cash escrow to guarantee installation of the improvements and the conditions of final plat approval. Permits from the appropriate regulatory agencies must be obtained, including but not limited to the MPCA, Department of Health, Watershed District, MnDOT, etc. GENERAL SITE PLAN/ARCHITECTURE The developer is proposing a three-story, brick building with a pitched, asphalt shingled roof. The total building area is approximately 53,000 square feet. The building is in an "L" shape with the short leg of the "L" in a north south orientation. ARCHITECTURAL COMPLIANCE Size, Portion and Placement The main entry to the building is located in the northwest comer of the building. The entrance to the building faces Century Boulevard. A canopy, supported by columns is proposed over the drop off entrance. The ground level of the building is visually distinct from the upper stories through the use of the darker brick material. Material, Color and Detail The applicant is proposing a dark brown brick veneer on the ground elevation and on all three levels on the gable ends of the building. A light sand colored brick veneer is proposed for the Holiday Inn Express September 2, 2003 Page 8 second and third floors. A white exterior insulation finishing system (EIFS) is proposed at the gable ends where signage is being proposed. Soldier course cornices are proposed at the top of the building. Three story windows are proposed in the public areas of the building. Height and Roof Design Building height is limited to 3 stories or 40 feet in the Overlay District otherwise they must be consistent with the underlying district. The proposed hotel is 3 stories with a height of approximately 35 feet. The building has asphalt shingled, 4/12 pitched roof which complies with the ordinance requirements. The entrance canopy has a standing seam metal roof. Facade transparency Fifty percent of the first floor elevation that is viewed by the public, adjacent to public right-of- way, shall include transparent windows and or doors. All other areas shall include landscaping material and architectural detailing and articulation. The north elevation contains only 35 percent window and door openings on the first floor. The developer has increased the amount of glass from the normal Holiday Inn Express area of 23 percent to 35 percent by adding window area in the public portions of the building including the great room, pantry and meeting rooms. The balance of the wall area includes guest rooms which do not permit the increase in window area without potentially impacting privacy and safety. To meet this threshold, sliding windows or windows across the width of the room would be necessary. Such window treatments would be out keeping with the rest of the building architecture. Site Furnishing The developer has not provided site furnishing as part of the project. Staff would suggest that the developer provide a patio area outside of the pool including tables and chairs. Benches should be located throughout the site to provide an opportunity for viewing of the natural area to the south. A bicycle rack shall also be included as part of the project. Loading areas, refuse area, etc. The applicant is proposing a trash enclosure/maintenance building in the northeast comer of the building constructed of material similar to the building. Landscaping Minimum requirements for landscaping on Lot 2 of the Holiday Inn Express development include 3,237 sq. ft. of landscaped area around the parking lot, 13 trees for the parking lot, and buffer yard plantings along the north and west property lines. The developer's proposed as compared to the requirements for landscape area and parking lot trees is shown in the following table. Vehicular use landscape area Trees/vehicular use area: Overstory trees Required Proposed 3,237 sq. ft. >3,237 sq. ft. 13 canopy trees 3 canopy trees Holiday Inn Express September 2, 2003 Page 9 Islands/peninsulas Hwy. 5 Buffer yard B - 440' 20' width 7 islands/peninsulas 9 canopy trees 13 understory trees 22 shrubs 5 islands/peninsulas 25 canopy 24 understory 0 shrubs The developer does not meet minimum requirements for parking lot plantings. Staff recommends that the developer add groupings of overstory trees on the south and east sides of the parking lot. The grouping will provide shade to the parking lot, but not intrude on the scenic views in those directions. Two landscape peninsulas will also need to be added, one in the northern parking lot and one in the southern park lot. Staff recommends that the open area to the south and east be left natural and only a minimum amount of mowing be done along the south curb line. The developer is also short on shrub plantings along Hwy. 5, but with the large number of over- and understory trees combined with the rise in elevation from the highway, staff recommends that the proposed plantings for the Highway 5 buffer yard be accepted. A revised landscape plan must be submitted to the city for final approval. Lot Frontage and Parking location The site is on Highway 5. Access is provided via Century Boulevard. The majority of site parking is provided to the south and east of the building.

Holiday Inn Express September 2, 2003 Page 10 Variances Required - Requesting sign variance to permit signage on the eastern building elevation and a variance to permit fenestration of 35%, rather than 50%. Parking Standards: Hotels: one per room plus one per two employees. The applicant has provided 99 spaces. ACCESS The applicant is proposing full access to the site from Century Boulevard. As the access will service the two lots, cross-access easements will need to be obtained and recorded against the lots. An internal sidewalk system shall be developed to bring pedestrians from the public trails on the west and (future) south sides into the site. LIGHTING/SIGNAGE Signage is permitted on the street frontage of buildings by city code. By code, the applicant could provide wall signage on only the northern elevation of the building. The applicant is requesting a sign variance to permit wall signage on the easterly building elevation, which does not have street frontage. Staff is recommending denial of the sign variance. The applicant could install a monument sign on the Highway 5 frontage if additional signage is required. Each property shall be allowed one monument sign per street frontage. The sign shall not exceed eighty (80) square feet in sign display area nor be greater than eight (8) feet in height. (Note that the monument sign shown on the site plan is located within the public right-of-way and may not be located there.) All signs shall require a separate sign permit.

On September 2, 2003, the Chanhassen Planning Commission met at its regularly schedule meeting to consider the application of Steiner Construction Services, Inc. and Steve Slowey for subdivision approval and site plan approval with variances for signage and fenestration for the property located at the southeast comer of Highway 5 and Century Boulevard. The Planning Commission conducted a public hearing on the proposed site plan which was preceded by published and mailed notice. The Planning Commission heard testimony from all interested persons wishing to speak and now makes the following: FINDINGS OF FACT The property is currently zoned Planned Unit Development - Office Industrial Park. 2. The property is guided by the Land Use Plan for office/industrial. o The legal description of the property is: Lots I and 2, Block 1, Arboretum Business Park 6th Addition (formerly Outlot D, Arboretum Business Park); and site plan for Lot 2, Block 1, Arboretum Business Park 6th Addition. Holiday Inn Express September 2, 2003 Page 17 4. The Subdivision Ordinance directs the Planning Commission to consider seven possible adverse affects of the proposed subdivision. The seven (7) affects and our findings regarding them are: (1) The proposed subdivision is consistent with the zoning ordinance; (2) The proposed subdivision is consistent with all applicable city, county and regional plans including but not limited to the city's comprehensive plan; (3) The physical characteristics of the site, including but not limited to topography, soils, vegetation, susceptibility to erosion and siltation, susceptibility to flooding, and storm water drainage are suitable for the proposed development; (4) The proposed subdivision makes adequate provision for water supply, storm drainage, sewage disposal, streets, erosion control and all other improvements required by this chapter; (5) The proposed subdivision will not cause significant environmental damage; (6) The proposed subdivision will not conflict with easements of record; and (7) The proposed subdivision is not premature. A subdivision is premature if any of the following exists: Lack of adequate storm water drainage. Lack of adequate roads. Lack of adequate sanitary sewer systems. Lack of adequate off-site public improvements or support systems. 5. Site Plan Section 20-110: (1) The proposed development is consistent with the elements and objectives of the city's development guides, including the comprehensive plan, official road mapping, and other plans that may be adopted; (2) The proposed development is consistent with the site plan review requirements; (3) The site plan preserves the site in its natural state to the extent practicable by minimizing tree and soil removal and designing grade changes to be in keeping Holiday Inn Express September 2, 2003 Page 18 with the general appearance of the neighboring developed or developing or developing areas; (4) The site plan creates a harmonious relationship of building and open space with natural site features and with existing and future buildings having a visual relationship to the development; (5) The site plan creates a functional and harmonious design for structures and site features, with special attention to the following: a. An internal sense of order for the buildings and use on the site and provision of a desirable environment for occupants, visitors and general community; b. The amount and location of open space and landscaping; c. Materials, textures, colors and details of construction as an expression of the design concept and the compatibility of the same with adjacent and neighboring structures and uses; and d. Vehicular and pedestrian circulation, including walkways, interior drives and parking in terms of location and number of access points to the public streets, width of interior drives and access points, general interior circulation, separation of pedestrian and vehicular traffic and arrangement and amount of parking. (6) The site plan protects adjacent and neighboring properties through reasonable provision for surface water drainage, sound and sight buffers, preservation of views, light and air and those aspects of design not adequately covered by other regulations which may have substantial effects on neighboring land uses. 6. Signage: The city council, upon the recommendation of the planning commission, may grant a variance from the requirements of this article where it is shown that by reason of topography or other conditions, strict compliance with the requirements of this article would cause a hardship; provided that a variance may be granted only if the variance does not adversely affect the spirit or intent of this article. The proposed hotel is the tallest building in the area and has sufficient visibility. Signage on the north elevation of the building is clearly visible to the general public. Signage on the western building elevation is consistent with other hotels in the city and because it's more tasteful in Holiday Inn Express September 2, 2003 Page 19 the fact that it's not a cupola or an aperture onto the building but is incorporated into the building. 7. Fenestration: The applicant has increased the amount of glass from the normal Holiday Inn Express amount of 23 percent to 35 percent by adding window area in the public areas of the building including the great room, pantry and meeting rooms. However, without increasing the amount of windows in each guest room, which may lead to privacy and security issues, the applicant is unable to meet the 50 percent fenestration requirement. The planning report #Sub #2003-13 and SPR #2003-8 dated September 2, 2003, prepared by Robert Generous, et al, is incorporated herein. RECOMMENDATION The Planning Commission recommends that the City Council approve the preliminary plat, site plan review with a variance for fenestration and denial of the variance for signage on the eastern western building elevation.

We are asking approval of the plan as presented. When a tenant for the pad has been determined, documents will be submitted for approval of that structure. The hotel will be 3 stories in height. We are requesting two variances to your ordinances; 1. We are requesting an additional sign on the building. One sign is on the gable end on the east elevation and the other is above the large window facing the highway (north elevation). 2. We are requesting a variance in the amount of glass on the elevation facing the highway. These variances will be discussed in the section relating to the building. SITE PLAN / LANDSCAPE PLAN The attached documents show a site development that meets setback, parking, landscape and screening requirements of the City of Chanhassen. The site will be subdivided into two separate sites (see tabulation on drawings for areas) with cross easements for parking as shown on the drawings. Parking requirements are met for each portion of the site. We are connecting the hotel site to the existing trail along Century Avenue and the trail to be constructed at the base of the hotel site adjacent to the wetlands. The Site Plan shows this connection. The landscape plan shows the distribution, size and species of the plantings. UTILITY / GRADING PLAN The attached drawings show the utilities and grading. They are sized to the requirements of the lot division. Storm sewer design will accommodate the run off from our site without affecting other sites in any way. Steiner Construction Services, LLC THE HOTEL BUILIDING The building is of three story wood construction. The materials are labeled on the drawings. The exterior materials are of two different color brick with an accent of EIFS at gable ends (as shown on the attached drawings). The first floor of the building has been treated differently by using a different color brick from the brick used for the upper two floors. The total building will be sprinkled to meet '13 R standards as is normal. In treating the first floor we have increased the amount of glass from the normal Holiday Inn Express amount to 35%. We have increased the glass in all the public areas. It is impossible to increase the glass in the rooms. We have therefore increased the glass from a normal 23% to the 35% and are asking for a variance from the 50% standard. We are also asking for a variance by adding one standard sign on the building facing east (see sheet A-5). The standard sign is on north elevation of building facing Hwy 5.

Please review the following storm water, erosion, and sediment control comments and recommendations, Storm Water Beginning March 10, 2003 all developments disturbing 1-acre or mom or part of a contiguous development which will disturb mom than 1-acre require a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit from the Pollution Control Agency (PCA). The owner / operator of the proposed development must apply for and receive the NPDES permit prior to beginning construction activities. Any development disturbing more than 1-acm and creating mom than 1-acm of impervious surface must also have permanent storm water treatment. It appears this is being done as the Holiday Express preliminary plan shows the storm water nmoff being managed by existing storm water infrastmctum. Erosion Control Erosion Control Note #4 should include straw mulch (MNDOT Type 1 mulch) application with seed for stabilization. Currently, the note roads "All disturbed areas shall be stabilized with seed, sod or rock base". Seed without mulch is not considered stabilization under the NPDES permit. Category 3 (straw or wood fiber) blanket should be applied following seeding in the proposed swale in the NE comer of the site. Sediment Control The silt fence used should be heavy-duty machine sliced silt fence, metal T-posts with 4 to 6 foot spacing. Existing vegetation should be conserved as much as practicable while installing and during construction. The silt fence end in the SW comer of the site should be angled up slope to inhibit water from flowing around the silt fence. Inlet control is needed following installation of inlet structures. Inlet control methods will be varied before and after pavement of the parking lots. Before pavement, inlet protection could consist of heavy-duty mono-mono silt fence with 4 foot spacing of metal T-posts and 1" rock around silt fence material. After paving of parking lots, mulch socks, sand bags or rock and wire could be used as tempormy inlet control. If them are any questions regarding this review please contact the SWCD office.

Control Section 1002 Dear Ms. A1-Jaff: The Minnesota Department of Transportation (Mn/DOT) has reviewed the above referenced plat in compliance with Minnesota Statute 505.03, subdivision 2, Plats. Before any further development, please address the following issues: Mn/DOT is very concerned with the proposed full access entrance onto Century Boulevard and its close proximity to the signalized intersection of TH 5 and Century Boulevard. This entrance will have a negative affect on the intersection creating a bottleneck that will affect its safety and operation. Southbound traffic turning left at the median opening will be forced to cross queuing traffic for the signal. This is an undesirable traffic proposal. Mn/DOT strongly recommends to the city that the median be closed and a right in right out entrance be allowed. At a minimum, if the median is to remain open a left turn lane should be provided on southbound Century Boulevard immediately prior to the median opening. Preventing these types of traffic problems prior to development is much easier than fixing them after the development is established. Please contact Lynn Clarkowski, Mn/DOT Area Engineer, at (651) 634-2103 regarding this issue. The proposed monument sign within Mn/DOT's right of way must be relocated off of Mn/DOT right of way. Please direct questions regarding this issue to Keith VanWagner (651-582-1443) of Mn/DOT's Permits section. All of the drainage is running away from TH 5. At this time there is no drainage permit required. If there are changes to the proposal and the drainage patterns are changed Mn/DOT will need to review those changes. The plat needs to show Mn/DOT's access control along TH 5 and identify inplace monuments. Please make these changes and send a copy of the final plat for Mn/DOT review to the following address: David Torfin Mn/DOT - Metro West Surveys 2055 N. Lilac Drive Golden Valley, MN 55422 Phone: (763) 797-3113 As a reminder, please address all initial future correspondence for development activity such as plats and site plans to: Paul Czech Mn/DOT - Metro Division Waters Edge 1500 West County Road B-2 Roseville, Minnesota 55113 Mn/DOT document submittal guidelines require three (3) complete copies of plats and two (2) copies of other review documents including site plans. Failure to provide three (3) copies of a plat and/or two (2) copies of other review documents will make a submittal incomplete and delay Mn/DOT's review and response to development proposals. We appreciate your anticipated cooperation in providing the necessary number of copies, as this will prevent us from having to delay and/or return incomplete submittals. If you have any questions concerning this review please feel free to contact me at (651) 582-1378 Senior Transportation Planner Copy: Roger Gustafson / Carver County Engineer John Freemyer / Carver County Surveyor Schoell and Madson, Inc.
