introduction
This preliminary development plan has been prepared for the
Lyman Lumber Company for review and consideration by the City
of Chanhassen.
The plan is responsive to a need for Lyman Lumber Company to
consolidate the facilities presently located in Excelsior,
Wayzata and Long Lake.
An examination of several available parcels of industrial
real estate on the western edge of the Twin Cities established
the proposed location as most desirable in terms of access
(both vehicular and rail), parcel size, and development
potential.
Lyman Lumber Company recognizes the problems and concerns
often encountered in a development of this type and believes
that this plan represents a solution which directs itself
equally well to matters of visual impact, environmental
impact, and to the day-to-day functions of company operations.

site location
The site of the proposed development is in that portion of
the City of Chanhassen, Minnesota, which extends into Hennepin
County. It is bordered on the south by State Highway No. 5
and on the North by the Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul and
Pacific Railroad.
The site, as well as the land directly to the east and to
the west, is presently being used for agricultural purposes.
Other land uses presently in the area are office, commercial,
and multiple family residential.

property description
The property sketch on the opposite page has been prepared
for Gabbert and Beck, Inc. by Schoell and Madson, Inc.
Engineers and Surveyors of Hopkins, Minnesota.
Lyman Lumber Company will purchase 20 acres from Gabbert
and Beck, Inc. --the present owners --upon the City's approval
of the development plan. The following describes the site:
DESCRIPTION OF WEST 20 ACRES:
The east 782.35 feet of the west 1410.40 feet of
that part of the Southwest Quarter of Section 7,
Township 116, Range 22, Hennepin 'County, Minnesota,
lying southerly at the right-of-way of the Chicago,
Milwaukee, St. Paul and Pacific Railroad.
Subject to an easement for public right-of-way
purposes in State Highway No. 5 as described in
Document No. 3087392.

concept plan
The sketch on the opposite page illustrates the development
concept. Access to this site as well as adjacent parcels
will be provided by a frontage road which will connect to
a future arterial roadway on the Chanhassen/Eden Prairie
municipal boundary. State Highway No. 5 is to be upgraded
with limited access points, medians, and other safety improve-
ments.
Because the construction of the frontage road will take
place at a now unknown time. Lyman Lumber Company will
require a temporary access to its site for the interim
period. City staff will negotiate the placement and execu-
tion of that access point with the State Highway Department.
The site is zoned P-4 (Planned Industrial Development District).
All uses proposed are permitted uses under the P-4 zoning.

site analysis
On site analysis has been completed dealing with vegetation,
slope, soil, drainage patterns, and utilities.
Approximately seven acres of the twenty acre site is under
cover; the trees are mixed hardwoods.
The topography is gently rolling with the majority of the
site at grades of 5% or less; smaller isolated areas range
up to grades of 15%.
The existing drainage patterns carry the runoff water from
the site in two directions. The rear two-thirds of the
runoff flows east through the land adjacent to the site and
empties into Mitchell Lake in Eden Prairie. The front one-
third of the site flows to the south and finds its way into
Rice Marsh Lake.
Preliminary soil tests have been conducted on site and reveal
that some complication may exist at the rear of the site along
the railroad if buildings are to be constructed in this area.
Sanitary sewer and water are not constructed to the site but
are located approximately 628 feet west of the westerly
property line on the north side of State Highway No. 5.
These utility lines have adequate size and elevation to serve
the Lyman Lumber Company Development.

site plan
The location of the functions on th.e site accomplishes th.e
design objectives in several ways. The millwork plant --a
completely interior storage and assembly operation --has
been sited towards the front in order to allow all exterior
storage areas for other functions to be in the rear of the
site. This also allows the building to function as a
screen for the storage areas of the distribution yard.
By locating the large millwork structure and the large hard
surface area of the lumber distribution yard on the westerly
portion of the site, a minimized impact is made on the exist-
ing vegetation.
All exterior storage of the lumber distribution yard and the
component plant --where roof trusses and wall panels will be
assembled --is placed in the lowest and least visible portion
of the site, and screened by structures and existing vegeta-
tion.
An area of approximately 3.5 acres has been reserved as a
future development area. Because this area is largely tree
covered it will act as a natural screen of the operations to
the rear.
All functions of the development are given rail access by a
spur that divides the.site.

architectural concepts
The sketches on the opposite page have been prepared to
project the architectural character of three types of struc-
tures involved in the development.
Sketch A illustrates the millwork building. Pre -cast concrete
panels, tilted into place, form the infill of a structural
system of steel or concrete. Skylights would provide natural
light to the interior assembly and storage areas.
The dispatch office is characterized by Sketch B. Also of
precast concrete panels, this building is treated differently
in terms of windows and spaces to reflect the people oriented
function that it will serve.
Other types will be pole construct -ion for lumber storage and
colored metal for storage and component assembly.

landscape concepts
New landscaping will be added to the developed site to aid in
screening the overall operation from off -site views and to
beautify the development.
Landscaping will include plant material of several varieties,
earth berming to provide topographic relief and visual screen-
ing, and walls or fences where an opaque screen is desired.

grading and utilities
The preliminary grading and utilities plan has been prepared
with the intent of maintaining as closely as possible to
ratio of storm water runoffs front to back, as possible.
Ponding areas for the control of sediment will be provided as
required by the Riley -Purgatory Creek Watershed District.
In addition, erosion control measures will be utilized during
construction and the altered land will be stabilized as
quickly as possible according to approved Watershed District
techniques.

construction phases
The construction of the proposed development is programmed
into several phases.
Phase 1 - 1975, will consist of the 44,000 square foot mill-
work buidling and supporting land area, as well as the install-
ation of the rail spur.
Phase 2 - 1976, will include all facilities associated with
the lumber distribution yard. The first and second phases
will, intermesh somewhat to physically and economically
simplify construction.
Phase 3 - 1978-79, will accommodate the component plant and
supporting land area.
Phase 4 - 1980, includes the general office facilities of
Lyman Lumber Company.
Phase 5 - 1980+, is the 3.5 acre parcel held in reserve.
This may be used for expansion of the Lyman Lumber Company,
or it may be developed by Lyman for another use, or it may
be sold to another party. It is not anticipated that this
parcel will be developed, or sold, before 1980.
