File No.. 8607-1
Comments
Santa Vera Village is a proposed 64-unit apartment development
to be built on 5.8 acres in Chanhassen. The development will
consist of 16 one -bedroom units and 48 two -bedroom units.
Thirteen of the two -bedroom units will be subsidized through the
Section 8 Program. Proposed monthly.rents have not yet been
specified by HUD.
Chanhassen's comprehensive plan has not yet been reviewed by the
Metropolitan Council. This proposed development is compatible
with its current comprehensive plan, and has been reviewed by
the city's planning commission and received all necessary
municipal approvals.
The proposed site location is conveniently accessible to most
necessary and desirable residential services. Central sewer and
water will be'provided and Metropolitan interceptor and
treatment capacity is adequate._.Highways, parks, health,
shopping and-daydare facilities are available nearby and the
development is within one-half mile of an MTC-bus route. The
affected school district does have the capacity to handle any
increased enrollment caused by the development.
No negative impact on the environment or metropolitan services
is anticipated if the proposal is implemented. Air and vehicle
traffic are not likely to detrimentally affect the intended
residential site use. It should be noted that no grading,
surface drainage or soil suitability information was provided
for this review. ConsequentlyR although no problems are
anticipated, any related issues regarding this site could not be
evaluated within the scope of this review.
According to the Council's 1980-1983 Subsidized Housing Allo-
cation Plan, Chanhassen has a three year allocation which will
support, the development of 22 units (13 family, 2 large -family,
and 7 elderly). During the present allocation plan period two
additional existing units have 'received subsidy. Although the
number of family units proposed in this development will
exceeds the city's allocation plan goal, the project size is
consistent with the overall family goal for Chanhassen.
The project is intended to meet the needs of low- and moderate -
income people and will provide diversity in the type and cost of
housing available within the community.
Recommendation
This proposal as submitted is positively consistent with
:areawide plans and goals.

Dear Mayor Hobbs:
The Minnesota Housing Finance Agency is pleased to inform you that it
has selected the Santa Vera Village proposal for financing. The
proposed development contains 64 family units (13 Section 8) and is
located at 600 Santa Vera Drive. The developers are Thomas Klingelhutz
and Douglas Hansen.
The Agency has applied for the reservation of Section 8 housing assistance
payments funds through the Department of Housing and Urban Development.
These payments will enable qualified renters to pay a maximum of 25%
of their income toward rent with the federal Section 8 funds paying the
remainder.
The Agency has inspected and approved the site, reviewed the proposed
development program, and will begin processing immediately. The mortgage
underwriting process normally takes between five and eleven months
from the time of selection until construction can begin.
Close cooperation is encouraged among the city, the Agency, and the
development team. We would appreciate your informing the appropriate
city departments and officials of this and all future notifications
regarding this development. The Agency will contact you again at
feasibility approval which could take approximately two to four months.
The Agency is looking forward to working with the developer and your
city in providing needed housing for the residents of your community.
If you have any questions, please contact the Agency at (612) 296-7620.

Attn: Mayor and City Council

Chanhassen, Mn 55317
Honorable Mayor and City Council Members -
Hansen and Klingelhutz have attempted to complete the apartment construction,
as approved by yourselves on Santa Vera. The tight money market has Beverly
hampered single family construction and literally stopped all apartment con-
struction.
It is the intent of Hansen and Klingelhutz to seek mortgage funds for our
construction under the Section 8/New Construction program of the Minnesota
Housing Finance Agency. We believe the existing Section 8 program has worked to
the advantage of Chanhassen residents and believe that, whatever number of
units are approved, will additionally be beneficial to Chanhassen residents.
As you are probably aware very few, if any, apartment units are for rent in
Chanhassen while interest rates and other costs prohibit investors from con-
sidering additional construction.
We would ask your approval of a resolution supporting our application for fund-
ing to the State of Minnesota.
Si rwcerely,
DouglastHansen

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: City Manager, Don Ashworth
DATE: February 4, 1980
SUBJ: Santa Vera Apartment Project, Resolution Supporting Partial
Designation, Section 8, New Construction
Approximately two years ago the City Council approved the development
contract, site plan, and building plans for a total of 80 units on
the Hansen and Klingelhutz property off Santa Vera. Construction of
16 of these units has been completed. Market conditions during the
past 12 to 18 months have prevented the developers from proceeding
with their building plans and are now requesting City Council
endorsement of a resolution supporting designation of a portion of
the remaining units as Section 8/New Construction and thus receive
a mortgage commitment, from the State, to complete their construction.
A multitude of federal/state housing programs have and
currently exist. A majority of these programs do not require
City Council action and except for indirect correspondence, the
City is totally unaware of such, i.e. mortgage commitments,
FHA and Jenny Mae guaranteed loan programs, federal title insurance,
various programs for subsidies or for interest rate loans
to low and moderate income individuals, etc. The Section 8/New
Construction Program is very similar to the Section 8/Scattered Site
Rental Program which has been in effect in Chanhassen for the past
three years. The program basically assures that low and moderate income
families can obtain affordable housing and limits the total amount
of rent which can be paid or for which rent subsidy is eligible.
Specifically, if an elderly person or family meets income limitations,
based on the number in the family, the program assures that no
more than 200 of the individuals total income will be required to be
paid for housing up to a specified maximum for various size
dwelling units. Most of the apartment units in Chanhassen have or
could be eligible under the existing program. In the existing program,
the applicant, after becoming certified as meeting program requirements,
is given total latitude in determining which existing apartment
he chooses to reside in and all negotiations are directly between him
and the owner - thus the name Section 8/Existing Scattered Site Unit
Program. This office is unaware of any problems which have occurred
Mayor and Council
-2- ,, February 4, 1980
in this program during the past three years with the current problem
being one of no current units available in Chanhassen to match the
number of approved families/elderly applications. In total approximately
8 individuals/units are funded under this program with an additional
8 applications available if rental units existed.
The Section 8/New Construction program is very similar to the Section 8/
Scattered Site Program with the exception that a certain percentage
of the number of new units in each development project is considered
for this type of program. Basically, this assures state/federal
officials that, during market conditions similar to present market,
that units would be available for elderly and low and moderate income
families. The advantage to the developer is that a lower overall
interest rate can be received and mortgage commitments are available.
Current state/federal priorities, in effect, prohibit elderly units
from being constructed. It would be possible to receive a potential
designation of some of the units for elderly; however, again, priorities
of the state are with family units. The resolution being requested
by Hansen and Klingelhutz would be for a preliminary application with
neither this office nor the developers having the knowledge as to
whether a mortgage commitment would be made for this type of project
or under what conditions, i.e. number of units being designated under
the Section 8 program or the proportion of such which would be
one bedroom, 2 bedrooms, etc.
This office finds no potential problems which the City may encounter by
endorsing this resolution. Specifically, if mortgage money were to
be made available to the developers, such could reduce the total number
of family units for which the Housing and Redevelopment Authority
could seek approval for in the future. However, I cannot foresee our
local Housing and Redevelopment Authority actively promoting and carrying
out its own family housing project - leading me back to the original
position of finding no real conflict with City Council approval of
the Hansen and Klingelhutz request. This position would not be the
same if the application were for an elderly project. In this case,
the City should actively seek construction in closer proximity to the
proposed downtown redevelopment area - a potential if the state priorities
change during the next two to three year period and the downtown
redevelopment program becomes a reality.

Re: Santa Vera Village Apartments
Enclosed you will find our proposed development contract for the
above described property.
If the planning department finds the development contract to be
in order, it should he presented to the developer for its signature
and then tendered to the City Council for its approval.
Exhibit A to the development contract would be a legal description
for all of the lands underlying Santa Vera Village. The developers
should be asked to supply a legal description at this time, and
that legal description should be approved either by this office or
by the City Engineer.
Paragraph A(iW of Section 15 contains the provisions for neighbor-
hood Parks. The City Council did not resolve that issue at the time
of its preliminary development approval.
Paragraph A(vi) of Section 15 provides for a temporary cul-de-sac.
The City Engineer's office should prepare the necessary legal descrip-
tion at this time. That legal description should he forwarded to
this office so that we may obtain the necessary signed easement docu-
ment from 11 & K .
Paragraph C of Section 6 provides that the developers shall convey a
perpetual easement to the City for access purposes over the internal
driveways and parking lots of the development. This will, of course,
require that a legal description be prepared for the driveways and
}parking lots. The preparation of said legal description can be
deferred until such time as the developers prepare their "as built"
plans (See Paragraph B of Section 6). The planning department should
make some sort of follow-up in its records so that this easement matter
is not forgotten.
Donald 11. Ashworth
Re: manta Vera Village Apartments 999 2/28/78
The planning department should also confirm that the third "whereas"
paragraph in the contract accurately describes the documentation
which the developers have filed with the City and which was reviewed
by the Council.

The following statement from Pat Boyle was read: "Speaking for
myself and as a member of the -Park Commission, I would like some
consideration given for the need for open space within this complex
for a play area for the small children this type of development
will attract. Even though this area is located next to the
school play ground there are times when the school play area will
be in use and certainly would be more convenient for the people living
in the complex to have a play area located within the development."
The proposal calls for 60 two bedroom apartment units and 20 one
bedroom units to be built in four phases.
Councilman Geving moved.to approve the planned unit development
for Santa Vera planned residential development consisting of ten

SARATOGA LANE FIRST AND SECOND' ADDITIONS = UTILITIES AND STREET -IMPROVEMENTS':'' The
Council questioned the city engineers involvement in public improvements -_installed
in private developments., -Hansen-and Klingelhutz originally petitioned for the city to
install the improvements which could require the city engineer to prepare plans and
specifications. At this time Hansen and Klingelhutz have.decided to install the
improvements privately and the city engineer -has already completed the plans and
specifications and received bids. The Council will discuss at another meeting the
role of the city engineer in public and private improvement projects.
Councilman Pearson moved to approve the private installation of utilities and street
improvements for Saratoga Lane First and Second Additions as prepared by Schoell and
Madson dated June 24, 1977, upon delivery to the City of a bond in at least the amount
of the contract price. The Council requests a letter from Schoell and Madson
certifying the plans and specifications. Motion seconded by Councilman Neveaux. The
following voted in favor: Mayor Hobbs, Councilmen Pearson, Neveaux, Waritz, and Geving.
No negative votes. Motion -carried. ---
Councilman Waritz - In this instance the City Council is authorizing the city engineer
to act both as the engineer for the developer and the engineer for the City. This
in no way is meant to set a precedent for this type of thing in the future.
Mayor Hobbs - I feel that the city engineer and Hansen and Klingelhutz did in this
case act prematurely in working together on finalizing plans and specifications for
this project and 'I hope it' won't happen- again.
BLUFF CREEK DRIVE - TRAFFIC REGULATIONS: Several residents were present objecting to
the speed of vehicles and the amount of truck traffic on the street. The Council
decided to leave the 30 MPH speed limit -signs -as is and requested residents to furnish
City Staff with names of offenders so that the City Manager can write letters to the
vehicle owners. The Maintenance Superintendent will survey the street to see if
there is enough deterioration to warrant posted load limits. The city engineer will
prepare a report on speed bumps and dips -for the next Council meeting.
AMBULANCE SERVICE - METHODIST HOSPITAL AND SMITH AMBULANCE:- Earl" Dresser, President
of Methodist Hospital, was present to discuss the budgeted deficit incurred by
Methodist Hospital in providing paramedic ambulance service (a joint effort with
Smith Ambulance) to area communities. This year the program was cut back to 32
ambulances but even so the expected 1977 deficit will be $144,000. It is anticipated
that a general levy of 58¢ per resident levied by each of the municipalities
benefitting from the paramedic service would provide sufficient monies to off set
deficits arising from costs in excess of reimbursements and allowances for non -
collections. The Council reviewed the program and were favorably impressed with
the service. This request will be considered during the 1978 budgetary process.

PUBLIC HEARING
STREET VACATION - SARATOGA LANE
Mayor Hobbs called the public hearing to order at 8:25 p.m. The
following people were present:
Tom Hannon, 5209 James Ave. So., Mpls.
Pat Kerber, Chanhassen
James Hawks
Thomas Klingelhutz, Chanhassen
Douglas M. Hansen, Minnetonka
Craig Mertz recommended that the hearing be continued to August 1,
1977, due to an error in publishing the legal description. This
would allow for time to republish.
Tom Hannon - My first concern is that the new publication, if the
Council so decides, a legal description will be six feet more to
the west from where the initial cutoff was. Our.problem is that
with the garbage trucks and snow plows are going to have to have
some means of turning around. It is also much more convenient for
Mr. Kerber to get out of his driveway if he is given a little more
room to back up on: Cutting the road off at his driveway, he could
swing in but to go back out he needs some room to go back out.
A possible concern of ours is that when the road is vacated from
the public road-to.'the western most part of his lot, it is our
understanding that when a road is vacated that it is divided down
the middle and half goes to the abutting property owners and we
believe that Mr. Kerber would be entitled to half that road.
Russell Larson - The survey does not show that he abuts anyplace
along the:vacated portion of the road. -
Tom Hannon - In other words Hansen and Klingelhutz owns the property
between.
Russell 'Larson = The vacation would all go to Hansen and Klingelhutz.
The question that you will be asked to determine at.the continued
public hearing whether to -vacate from "D" to "B" or vacate from
"D" to "B" minus six feet.
Mayor Hobbs - The other property owners are here perhaps they wish
to comment-.
Jim Hawks -.This is the first time this six feet idea has come ' up.
Six feet is not a problem. One provision; you know there•is an
exception to the plat that hopefully will become a buildable lot
some day and we will have a public right-of-way on the western
end -of the lot. We wouldn't want six feet more to interfere with
the back yard requirements because that's a pretty minimum area now
between the frontage on the cul-de-sac and where the vacation is
going to take place. I would kind of like to have it indicated
at least an understanding with the Planning Commission and Council
when we-try'to locate a house on that lot.- It's possible that it
might be impossible to -maintain a 35 foot setback by the fact of
that 20 foot easement. I guess it -doesn't -matter really, except
for that kind of a condition.' -
Councilman Pearson moved to continue the public hearing to August
1, 1977. Motion seconded by Councilman Neveaux. The following
voted in favor: Mayor Hobbs, Councilmen Pearson, Neveaux, Geving,
and Waritz. Hearing continued at 8:35 p.m.

PLANNING REPORT
DATE: November 17, 1977 F, y:.ct�� '� -•--•�
TO: Don Ashworth, City Manager
FROM: Bruce Pankonin, City Planner
SUBJ: Planned Unit Development Review for Proposed Santa Vera
Planned Residential Development
APPLICANT: Hansen and Klingelhutz Construction Company, Inc.
PLANNING CASE: P-412
Ptt- i f i nn
As shown in enclosures 1, 2, 3 and 4, the petitioner is proposing a
planned unit development consisting of ten (10) eight unit apartment
buildings on a 6.6 acre tract of land. The gross density of this
proposed planned residential development is approximately 12 dwelling
units per gross acre.
Background
1. As shown in enclosures 5, 6 and 7, the Chanhassen city council
on May 5, 1969, pursuant to planning commission recommendation, approved
a total development plan for the Hansen and Klingelhutz Western Hills
Planned Unit Development. Included in this plan were townhouse areas
(now existing Laredo Lane single family addition), single family areas,
an open space system and a transportation network. Since 1969, Hansen
and Klingelhutz has been building to implement the heretofore approved
development plans. The proposal before the city council is to implement
the multiple family portion of Hansen and Klingelhutz's approved planned
unit development.
2. Community Location: As shown in enclosure 1, the subject property
is approximately 6.6+ acres of land located directly north of the
Chanhassen Elementary School.
3. Existing Zoning: The subject property is zoned P-1, planned
community development. This zoning was given in response to the city's
approval in 1969.
Mr. Don Ashworth -2- Novembe x 17, 1977
4. Comprehensive Plan Proposal: The subject property,.as. shown in the
existing Comprehensive Plan, is to assume a low density, single family
residential identity.
Planner's Comments
1. The criteria for evaluating Hansen and Klingelhutz's proposed
Santa Vera Planned Community Development is identified in section 14
of city ordinance 47. The purpose of this section, P-1 use district,
among other things is to: "Provide the means for greater creativity
and flexibility .... provide for the establishment of regulations and
procedures for planned unit developments .... developments that meet the
needs of moderate and low cost housing.... without sacrificing quality,
construction and the city's tax base."
2- During the preliminary plat stage of the proposed Saratoga Lane
Addition, (directly north of the subject property) the planning commission
and city council reaffirmed their support of apartments on the subject
property (Reference city council minutes dated June 6, 1977).
3. Since 1969, Hansen and Klingelhutz Construction Company has made
a concerted effort to construct a high quality residential neighborhood
in accordance with approved city plans. Part of this development included,
but was not limited to,an open space system, single family detached
housing, a few duplex lots and municipal street network consistent
with the city's transportation plan.
4. Hansen and Klingelhutz has not only created an aesthetically
pleasing and functional neighborhood, but the quality of the residential
structures constructed to date leaves the casual visitor and resident
with a very positive impression of the stability and quality of the
residential neighborhood.
5. From a planning perspective, I strongly support the action of
previous planning commissions and councils in "philosophically" agreeing
to allowing Hansen and Klingelhutz to construct apartments north of
the Chanhassen Elementary School. Further, I think it is important that
each neighborhood (area to be defined) should have a variety of housing
styles.
6. From a planning perspective, I feel the proposed Santa Vera Addition
as suggested by Hansen and Klingelhutz, would have a positive impact
and would be compatible with existing residential neighborhoods. However,
I would suggest that an earth berm be created along the open parking
area in Phase I. In addition, I think Hansen and Klingelhutz should
be required to provide some active recreation space for future residents
of the development. Specifically, I would suggest Hansen and Klingelhutz
should be required to install a tennis court or similar structure.
Further, the developer as a condition to plan approval, should be
required to install a sidewalk along the entire length of Laredo Drive
if the city council orders a public improvement project requiring
installation of said sidewalk. As you know, this roadway functions as
a collector street and many school children use it's right-of-way.
Also, the developer should reserve:: some units with a higher amenity
package that would be normally be built in a typical apartment project.
Mr. Don Ashworth -3- November 17, 1977
by doing this, the apartments would appeal to a broader economic/income
base.
7. During plan approval of Hansen and Klingelhutz's Saratoga Lane Addition
(area north of proposed Santa Vera) city staff inadvertently missed a
requirement to put a temporary cul-de-sac on proposed Saratoga Circle.
I believe the developer should dedicate at this time a easement for a
temporary cul-de-sac until said road is extended to the west in the Kerber
property. In addition, the name "Saratoga Circle" should be changed
to Santa Vera Lane because with the original naming confusion with the
city's addressing system could result.
8. The city engineer, as shown in enclosure 8, recommended approval
of Hansen and Klingelhutz's preliminary plan with a number of exceptions.
Staff would recommend the changes as suggested by the engineer be
incorporated in the final plans.
9. Four plans, as required by ordinance, are contained within the
planner's file and available for city council inspection.
Planner's Recommendation
Generally I agree with the proposal submitted to date. I would suggest
the city council approve Santa Vera Addition only if the conditions as
outlined in items 6-8, above, were incorporated into Hansen and
Klingelhutz's final plan.
Public Input
As shown in enclosure 9, the Chanhassen planning commission duly held
a public hearing on November 9, 1977, to consider public sentiment
regarding Hansen and Klingelhutz's proposed Santa Vera Addition.
As in the attached, no comments were received from the general public.
Planning Commission Recommendation
You will note in enclosure 9, Hansen and Klingelhutz, in response to this
planner's suggestion to install active recreations, volunteered to
contribute $1,000 to each of the stages to be used for park development
in the immediate area. With this in mind, the planning commission took
the following action: "Hud Hollenback moved to suggest the developer
proceed with implementing plans for Santa Vera Addition provided an
earth berm is created along the open parking area in phase I, that they
install a sidewalk along the length of Laredo Drive in this development
to a four foot width, they should reserve some units with a higher
amenity package, the developer contribute $1,000 upon completion of each
of the four phases for its improvement or development of Western Hills
Park in lieu of providing recreational space on .the property, the developer
will modify the color renditions of the building. Motion seconded by
Roman Roos and unanimously approved."

PUBLIC HEARING WESTERN HILLS PRELIMINARY PLAT
APRIL 28, 1969
The public hearing was called to order by Chairman Al Barnacle.
The following members were present: Bob Scholer, Harry Pauly,
Al Barnacle, Dean Scheff, and Anne Neils. John Neveaux and Nick
Waritz were absent.
The Administrator read the official publication of the hearing.
The Chairman explained the duties of the Planning Commission and
that the Planning Commission will make recommendations to the Council
so that the Council can make a final judgment.
Jim Morrison, Sunrise Hills, stated he was not familiar with the
plan and would like to have it explained. Herb Baldwin, Hansen and
Klingelhutz Landscape Architect, explained the proposed plat in
detail. The average lot is 90 feet by 140 feet. Total acreage is
94 acres with 10.6 acres in park, 12.0 acres in streets, 57.2 acres
in single family homes, and 14.2 acres in townhouses and apartments.
The townhouses will be 1500 to 2200 square feet with two car interior
parking space for each townhouse. There are 34 townhouses in Parcel
A, 34 townhouses in Parcel B and 36 apartment units in Parcel B.
Streets are private in townhouse area.
George Beniek, Highland Park, asked where the exact boundary lines
are for this proposed plat. Mr. Baldwin explained the area involved
in relation to existing subdivisions.
Pat Kerber asked about right-of-way width on street between Kerber
Drive and Lotus Lane. Al Barnacle stated this would be a collector
street with 80 foot right-of-way and 36 feet of blacktop. The
existing two streets have 28 feet of blacktop. He stated Hansen
and Klingelhutz have asked for a variance to continue with 60 foot
right-of-way with 28 feet of blacktop.
Mr. Don Boll, Schoell and Madson, read the engineer's letter of
April 7 as follows: "Subject, Review of Preliminary Plat, Western
Hills 1st Addition. We have reviewed preliminary plans for streets,
water system, sanitary and storm sewers for the subject proposed
plat. We have found them to meet or exceed all design standards
required to provide these services and utilities to the property
as well as to adjacent properties which will be served by extensions
of these facilities. These plans are preliminary and detail construction
plans will have to be submitted for approval prior to any construction.
Construction could be divided into three or more phases although
the developer has not as yet suggested phasing the development.
Easements. Temporary turn -around easements should be provided at
ends of streets expected to be extended into adjacent properties.
Drainage easements across rear of lots abutting on major drainage
ways should be at least 20 feet in width. Easements where sanitary
sewer is to be placed should be at least 15 feet in width.
Street Right -of -Way. Cul-de-sacs are shown as 100 feet in diameter.
the Platting Ordinance calls for 120 foot diameters. Lotus Lane and
Lake Street should be considered as Collector Streets and increased
to 80 foot width per the Platting Ordinance."
Public Hearing, April 28, 1969
-2-
He also read the engineer's letter of April 25, 1969, as follows:
"Subject, Necessary Provisions for Surface Runoff Proposed Plat of
Western Hills. As reported earlier, we have studied the preliminary
plans for facilities to handle storm and surface waters in the
proposed plat of Western Hills. The proposed storm sewers will
adequately serve the area in the plat and some additional areas to
the south and west of the plat. The proposed drainage systems
empty into three separate drainage ways to the north and east of the
proposed plat. These "creeks" discharge into Lotus Lake. Persons
familiar with the area have indicated these creeks are wet -dry
creeks carrying storm and spring runoff waters rather than continuous
flowing. The developer has proposed a three-phase program for
development, the first phase being the southeast portion of the
area with subsequent phases being located to the northwest. The
three drainage ways are:
No. 1 - Forcier Creek
This waterway or ditch originates in the southern portion of the
proposed plat. The developer has proposed to construct storm sewers
within the plat in this area which would discharge in this waterway
at the east line of the plat. The drainage area above this point
is approximately 55 acres, generating up to 50 cubic feet per second
of storm water discharge. This volume of water will aggrevate the
erosion problems already existing between the east line of the plat
and Lake Street below. The ditch is quite close to, and could endanger
an existing dwelling (Forcier) in this area.
RECOMMENDATION: An adequate storm sewer pipe should be extended
from the east line of the plat down to and under Lake Street. In
addition, the new storm sewer pipe will have to be installed under
Lake Street, since the existing 36" culvert there will not be
adequate alone. The latter can continue to serve local gutter drainage
along Lake Street.
No. 2 - Sunrise Hills Creek
This waterway or ditch originates at the east end of the pond which
lies partly within this proposed plat. The portion of this waterway
between the east line of the proposed plat and Lake Street is a
rugged unimproved ditch in which sanitary sewer was constructed in
1968. It will take some time for the construction scars to "heal
up". It is felt that with some preventive maintenance and the
impoundment of water provided by the pond, including a controlled
outlet structure, this waterway should not cause major problems as
a result of development of the upstream areas. Future storm sewers
and runoff should be directed into the pond rather than into the
ditch. The 48" culvert under Lake Street at the foot of this ditch
is adequate. From Lake Street to Lotus Lake a 12" pipe underground
carries low flows and a wide sodded swale carries heavier overflows
to the lake satisfactorily.
No. 3 - South Carver Beach Creek
This waterway or ditch runs easterly to Lotus Lake draining an area
roughly north of the proposed Western Hills and Sunrise Hills, south
of Carver Beach and east of County Road No. 17. This is quite a
broad valley with a meandering "creek". It does have a narrower
gullied area at its upstream end near the northwest corner of the
proposed plat. Proposed storm sewers outletting into this drainage
way are not expected to create any additional problems. Eventual
total development of the drainage area may require some improvements
in portions nf the waterway."
Public Bearing, April 28, 1969
-3-
Jim Morrison asked about the water draining from the field onto
Highland Drive and down onto Lake Street which is washing gravel
onto Lake Street also the water freezer and makes this intersection
slippery. Mr. Bill Mills, Hansen and Klingelhutz Engineer, stated
this area will drain to Forcier Creek and the platting of this
area will not add to the problem.
Russell Larson, Sunrise Hills, questioned the water drainage onto
Lotus Lane. Tom Klingelhutz stated they will not grade any land in
a way that will contribute any more water down Lotus Lane.
Ward Passe, Sunrise Hills, asked if Planning Commission recommendations
will go to the Council with only one hearing. Al Barnacle answered
yes.
Jim Morrison stated Tract A has approximately 49 lots which would
mean 98 cars. He moved to the area to be free of traffic. The
traffic should be taken out of Tract A another way.
Mrs. Giles Courtney, Sunrise Hills, asked if Kerber Drive could be
extended into Tract A to divert traffic. Mr. Baldwin stated there
was a deep ravine to the north and extending the road through that
area would not be feasible.
Ward Passe asked if the safety of children was taken into consideration?
Mr. Baldwin answered yes.
Russell Larson asked if Hansen and Klingelhutz have plans for order
of development. IIis question was answered, Tract C would be the
first area to be developed.
Betty Kelly, Sunrise hills, asked if an easement through Ecklund and
Swedlund property could be obtained to build in Tract A so that trucks
could go through to County Road 17.
Russell Larson asked the Planning Commission to consider that the
development of Tract A be deferred until Ecklund and Swedlund develop
their area so that traffic can come in through Ecklund and Swedlund
Subdivision. Mr. flarroun, Attorney for Hansen and Klingelhutz,
stated they would not be willing to subject our land to that kind
of servitude in favor of Ecklund and Swedlund whereby neither we
nor the Village would have any right to determine when we could build
in Tract A. That decision would be in the hands of a third party
under whom neither we nor the Village would have any control.
Ecklund and Swedlund could wait 50 years before developing.
Mr. Michael Walsh, Scholer's Second Addition, asked if a projected
traffic study from the townhouse area had been made when area is
fully developed. It was requested that the developers make a
traffic pattern study on Lotus Lane.
Ward Passe asked do we who live in in Sunrise Hills area have the
right to protect our area or don't we have that right? Bob Scholer
answered yes, but not unreasonably so to stop further development.
Public Hearing, April 28, 1969
-4-
Stan Tarnowski, Auditor's Subdivision #2, stated he thought the
plat is very good. The new road into Sunrise Hills will eliminate
traffic on Lake Street.
Ed Seim, speaking as a private citizen, felt this plan has followed
the right course of action. He also stated it is the most beautiful
plan he has seen in this area. He stated the prople here are being
narrow minded in their thinking of no further development. If you
want that you should have built on a cul-de-sac. This development
comes closer to meeting the needs of the Village than any plat thus
far.
John Brost, presently building a home in Western Hills, stated the
traffic study would be a waste of time because you do not know
where people will work.
Russell Larson stated he has two concerns. Drainage on Lotus Lane
and traffic out of Tract A. He finds the layout very good if these
two problems can be solved.
Ward Passe presented a petition signed by some of the residents of
Sunrise Hills: "We, concerned citizens, wish to express our
objections to the proposed plat of Western Hills, second addition.
Specifically, the inconsiderate extension of the Lake Street "dead
end", and the environmental change this will bring to an established
neighborhood. /s/ Theresa Erickson, Kenneth Erickson, Irene Scott,

Jim Morrison asked if the park is to be public. He was answered yes.

Subject: Hansen & Klingelhutz Santa Vera
Village PRD, Preliminary Plan Review.
We have reviewed the subject Preliminary Plan dated August 28, 1977,
from an engineering point of view and have the following comments:
1) The sanitary sewer alignment shown will adequately serve the
development. All lines should be 8-inch diameter.
2) Hydrants should be spaced at 300 foot intervals along the water -
main shown through the development.
3) The drainage plan is adequate except:
a) Additional storm sewer will be required to serve the
southeast 1 a 6 acres of the property.
b) The elevation of the most southeasterly 8-unit apartment
building should be raised to 997.0 to conduct drainage
away from the building.
4) The street widths and grades are acceptable.
We feel the plan is adequate for Public Hearing purposes subject to the
developer's conformance to the recommendations contained herein.
Very truly yours,
SCHOELL & MADSON, IZIC.
WJBrezinsky:bk
Planning.Commission Meeting November 9, 1977
Bruce Pankonin Can you.hook.up.to the sewer, Bill?
Bill Brezinsky - Y'es,.from the information we have there are no
restrictions on connecting to that fine.
Bill Swearengin - Frank was involved in this at the time it was hooked
up. Frank is also on the Shorewood Planning Commission and T'rather
suspect he has some intimate knowledge on. this.
Bill Brezinsky - we looked into it when we did the north area sewer
project and that's what we checked out if we could make any: more
connections or if there was a limited number of connections to that
lime and there was not.
Bruce Pankonin - If would suggest the Planning Commission, if you
find this proposed subdivision to be consistent with the spirit and

availability bf sanitary sewer to the subject property.
Bill Swearengin - I have no objection to what you are planning as long
as you put in the notes that we will, at least I will, Bill Swearengin,
push for commercial development on my piece of land in the future. That
any purchaser of the property should be aware of this.

PUBLIC HEARING
SANTA VERA PRELIMINARY DEVELOPMENT PLAN
HANSEN AND KLINGELHUTZ
Dick Dutcher called the hearing to order with the following interested
persons present:
Craig Mertz, 510 Laredo Drive
Doug Hansen, 17001 Stodola.Road, Minnetonka
Jim Hawks,
Lyle L. Guhl, 511 Del Rio Drive
Bill Brezinsky
Jim Alsup, 102 E. 19th St., Mpls.
The City Planner read the official notice as published in the Carver
County Herald.
The City Planner gave his report. The property is located directly
north of the Chanhassen Elementary School and is zoned P-1. Sanitary
• J sewer and water is available to the property. The proposal is to
construct 10 eight -unit apartment buildings.. The Planner feels the
developer should be encouraged to proceed with implementing the plan
J for Santa Vera, however, he suggested an earth berm be created along
the open parking area in Phase I. Hansen and.Klingelhutz should be
required to provide some activerecreation space on the site. The
developer be required to install a sidewalk along Laredo Drive. The
developer should reserve some units with a;higher amenity package than
would normally be built in a typical apartment project. The Planner
stated he has not been particularly enamored with -the architectural
style of the buildings..
Jim Hawks - Our approach was that we would.try to maintain the topography
and minimize the grading on the site. We also recognize this is a
major entrance road into this residential neighborhood. The school is
a public property. It does have the tennis courts existing on it which.
are for the school plus the general,pub,110.. At.the entrance we were
proposing a berm and this would.be'pl4nted .so th4t when your vision

enters this proposed development you will not immediately see the
structures. -We would like to stage the development, four possibly five.
years. We do not anticipate there will be many children in the
development. We have a little bit of difference with Bruce as far as
active recreation on the site: Part of the PUD.was'the parr. It needs.
to have some development in it and we proposed last time, not objecting
to the active recreation, but we are questioning whether it should be
on this site. We would meet that obligation by putting $1,00.0 for each
stage to be used to develop that park. We assume this group of residents
is going to pay their fair share of the tax picture to help develop
as much as the rest of the neighborhood is also. There is somewhat of .
a cut back or retrenchment on extensive exterior active recreation;
tennis courts, swimming pool, shuffleboard courts, and a lot of things
that were in the apartment picture a few years ago. Part of it is cost
but part of it is after having lived with the administration of those
sites it is kind of a problem. We would just as soon not have it here
and we are not starting out with the intent of trying to attract the
young unmarried adult. It isn't the market we are hoping to get in this
particular project. We would like to support some recreation but we
would rather not have it on this location.
As far as upgrading, we don't object to that except that to promise
someone that we will put in fireplaces and we will have -sunken living
rooms and all these things, that's nice but I guess it depends a little
bit on whether or not the market reflects what we are proposing. We
would rather start without it. We have been thinking through the cost
and design. We don't want to be pinned down to it at this stage.
J Hud Hollenback - In parking lots like this, is there need for lighting?
Jim Hawks - There will be lights on the garages. Security lights will
have to be put in but not the lighting that we have known in the past.
Hud Hollenback - I have a probiem with the buildings. I don't see it
fitting the way you are describing it, fitting into the land, this sort
of thing.
Jim Hawks - This is a style of building which has become very popular
in the southwest. This is a tudor type building and stucco is expensive.
We would like to have a light and airy type of construction and also
with the stucco they would be all light colors, gray, tan, white. We
don't want it to look like an institution. There will be a variety of
colors in there.
Hud Hollenback - This hadn't been mentioned before. I assumed they
would all be white stucco buildings.
Les Bridger - Did you indicate there would be no problem with the
sidewalk?
Doug Hansen - That's. right. A sidewalk up.to four feet wide.
Jim Hawks - Having public sidewalks leading to the schools on major
streets is a good idea. I am not so sure that it's necessarily equitable
to have the people who happen to own the property there pay for it all.
It really is a neighborhood service.
Hud Hollenback moved to close the public hearing. Motion seconded by
,Les Bridger and unanimously approved. -Hearing closed at 10:40 p.m.
SANTA VERA PRELIMINARY DEVELOPMENT PLAN:. Hud Hollenback moved to suggest
the developer proceed with implementing plans:::for:Santa Vera.PUD provided
an earth= -berm. -.is created along the open parking area in. Phase I, that
they install a sidewalk along the-length.of.Laredo-Drive in this

')development to a four foot width. They should reserve some units with
a.high.amenity package. The developer contribute $11000 upon completion
of each of the four phases toward improvement or development of Western .,--
Hills -Park in lieu of providing recreational space on the property. Thf,
developer will modify the color renditions of*the buildings. Motion
seconded by Roman Roos and unanimously approved..
ROBERT SOMMER SUBDIVISION: The City Engineer .will check on the status
o .t a existing sewer line.
Hud Hollenback moved to recommend the Council approve dividing Lot C
Bardwell.Acres into two lots as per Mr. Sommer's request subject.to
the Engineer's findings. Motion seconded by Les Bridger and unanimously
approved.
COMMUNITY FACILITIES STUDY COMMITTEE: Members discussed a possible
site along MSAS 101 for a library, public works garage, and city hall.
Hud Hollenback - I have a problem with the church being a library for
the amount of money spent for an elevator and all that kind of thing.
As a long term investment I just don't quite see it. We can do without
a library for a certain amount of time until we do'it right.
Dick Dutcher - I tend to agree with Hud's comment.
Walter Thompson - I think anything that goes into the church should be
a very very minimum amount. We would be using those dollars to a better
advantage elsewhere for a library particularly. I am not so sure but
what the library ought to have a considerable priority even though
there is one in Excelsior, there is one on. County Road 4. I can see a
further problem coming up this spring if this bond issue is going to
come up at that time, if the people aren't a whole lot better informed
than they are now, and I suspect from the information we have here
we probably have more information than 95% of the people in the community,
there is going to have to be a good PR job done on this to get the
information out how badly we need all these facilities.
Dick Dutcher - Couldn't we get the Community Schools involved.in
administering the use of the church basement for meetings.
Don- Ashworth - Homeowners association meetings and the art classes.
Hud Hollenback - Bridge groups.
Dick Dutcher - They could use the basement. They have been used to
getting the city hall and getting it for free.
Don Ashworth - One thing we have talked about is there is definitely a
need in the community for those type of activities. Whether they are
free or $2.00 a night ...
Hud Hollenback - There is a lot of wear and tear. Somebody has to
maintain it, sweep up.
Don Ashworth - There is a real question in there. If it's a regular
club and making profits maybe you can charge. What if it's beginning
bridge lessons? One thing for sure there is definitely a community need
for facilities like that.
Dick Dutcher - Can we agree that we don't recommend that the library
facility be included in the church?
Hud Hollenback - That's the way I feel.
Walter Thompson - I would agree to that.
Dick Dutcher - Can we agree that some effort ought to be made whether
it's through the Community Facilities Committee or some other body that
an attempt be made either through Community'Schools or some other
organization to promote the use of the church since it apparently is
going to be a public facility,'that that be encouraged to develop

MEMORANDUM
TO: City Attorney, Russell Larson
�L FROM: Don Ashworth, City Manager
DATE: November 30, 1977
SUBJ: Proposed Santa Vera Planned Residential Development
I assume that your office and the planning department will jointly
work on preparation of the conditional use permit for this development.
Don't forget that this office and Council are seeking an answer to
the question of the necessity of the builder to pay park acquisition and
development charges in accordance with the new park ordinance. I
do not believe that it is unusual for a municipality to require
::ertain recreational facilities to be maintained within a development,
sdlely for the renters of that facility. Additionally, these
developers are required to pay charges under a park acquisition and
ievelopment ordinance for general city park facilities available
over and above those provided on the specific development. This could
even be related to single family residential where minimum back
yards are required for open space recreational use, but not being a
credit to or being in lieu of general city park facilities. As such,
I do not think it would be unusual for your office to consider that
the developer should pay both the $1,000 per phase and pay the applicable
unit charges per apartment.
I await your response.

SUBJ: Hansen and Klingelhutz Santa Vera Village PRD
APPLICANT: Hansen and Klingelhutz
PLANNING CASE: P-412
Petition
As shown in enclosures 1 - 11, Hansen and Klingelhutz Construction
Company is proposing a planned unit development consisting of ten
8 unit apartment buildings on a 6.6 acre tract of land.
Planner's Recommendation
I feel the developer should be encouraged to proceed with implementing
the plans for the Santa Vera Planned Unit Development, however, I
would suggest that an earth berm be created along the open parking
area in phase 1. In addition, I think Hansen and Klingelhutz should
be required to provide some active recreation space for future
residents of the development. Specifically, I would suggest the
applicant be required to install a tennis court or similar structure.
In addition, I recommend the developer be required to install a
sidewalk along the entire length of Laredo Drive. Further the developer
should reserve some units with a high amenity package that would
normally build in a typical'apartment project. By doing this, the
apartments would appeal to a broader economic/income base.
If the developer meets these conditions I would recommend the city
approve the planned unit development.
Parenthetically, to aid the planning commission in the decision making
process I would recommend the commission encourage the council to establish
an architectural control committee which would have the power of review
and approval of the architectural style of each high density residential,
commercial and industrial building proposed to be built in the City
of Chanhassen.

SUBJ: Planned Unit Development Review for Proposed Santa Vera
Planned Residential Development
APPLICANT: Hansen and Klingelhutz Construction Company, Inc.
PLANNING CASE: P-412
P,--i-1-inn
As shown in enclosures 1, 2 and 3, the petitioner is proposing a
planned unit development consisting of ten (10) eight unit apartment
buildings on a 6.6 acre tract of land. The gross density of this
proposed planned residential development is approximately 12 dwelling
units per acre.
Background
1. As shown in enclosures 6, 7 and 8, the Chanhassen City Council,
on May 5, 1969, approved a total development plan for the Hansen
and Klingelhutz, Western Hills Planned Unit Development. Included
in this plan were townhouse areas (now existing Laredo Lane Addition),
single family areas, an. open space system and a transportation system.
Since 1969, Hansen and Klingelhutz has been building to implement
the heretofore approved development plans. The proposal before the
planning commission is to implement the multiple family portion of
Hansen and Klingelhutz's approved planned unit development.
2. Community Location: As shown in enclosure 1, the subject property
is approximately 6.6 acres located directly north of the Chanhassen
Elementary School.
3. Existing Zoning: The subject property is zoned P-1, Planned
Community Development. This zoning was given in response to the city's
approval in 1969.
Planning Commission -2- October 5, 1977
4. Comprehensive Plan Proposal: The subject property, as shown in
the existing Comprehensive Plan, is to assume a low density single
family residential identity.
Planner's Comments
1. The criteria for evaluating Hansen and Klingelhutz's proposed
Santa Vera Planned Community Development is identified in Section 14
of city ordinance 47. The purpose of this section, P-1 use district,
among other things, is to: "provide the means for greater creativity
and flexibility...." "provide for the establishment of regulations
and procedures for planned unit developments ... developments that meet
the needs of moderate and low cost housing.... without sacrificing
quality, construction and the city's tax base."
2. During the sketch plan stage of the proposed Saratoga Lane -Addition,
(directly north of the subject property) the planning commission
reaffirmed their support of apartments on the subject property.
3. Since 1969, Hansen and Klingelhutz Construction Company has
made a concerted effort to construct a high quality residential
neighborhood in accordance with approved city plans. Part of this
development included but was not limited to an open space system,
single family detached housing, a few duplex lots and a municipal
street network consistent with the city plan.
4. Hansen and Klingelhutz has created not only an aesthetically
pleasing and functional neighborhood, but the quality of the residential
structures constructed to date leaves the casual visitor and resident
with a very positive impression of the stability and quality of the
residential neighborhood.
5. From a planning perspective, I strongly support the action of
previous planning commissions and councils in "philosophically"
agree to allowing Hansen and Klingelhutz to construct apartments north
of Chanhassen Elementary School. Further, I think it is important
that each neighborhood (area to be defined) should have a variety of
housing styles..
6. From a planning perspective, I feel the proposed Santa Vera
Addition, as suggested by Hansen and Klingelhutz, would have a positive
impact and would be compatible with the existing residential
neighborhood.
7. The applicant should be questioned as to the timing and phasing
of the proposed PRD. Although the landscape plan indicates a phasing
plan, the timing of this element is not enunciated in the submitted
plans.
8. I feel the developer should be encouraged to proceed with implementing
these plans, however, I would suggest that an earth berm be created
along the open parking area in phase::l• In addition, I
think Hansen and Klingelhutz should be required to provide some active
recreation spaces for the future residents of the development.
Specifically, I would suggest, they be required to install a tennis
court or similar structures.
Planning Commission -3- October 5, 1977
9. The developer, as a condition of plan approval, should be required
to install a sidewalk along the entire length of Laredo Drive. As you
know, this roadway functions as a collector street and many school
children use it's right-of-way.
10. Further, the developer should reserve some units with a higher
amenity package than would normally be built in a typical apartment
project. By doing this, the apartments would appeal to a broader
economic/income base..
Planner's Recommendation
Generally I agree with the proposal submitted to date. I would
suggest the planning commission order a public hearing to be held
on November 9, 1977, to test neighborhood sentiment on the issue.

As shown in enclosures 1, 2 and 3, the petitioners are proposing a
planned unit development consisting of ten 8 unit apartment buildings
on a 6.6 acre tract of land (12+ units/gross acre).
Background
1. As shown in enclosures 6, 7 and 8, the Chanhassen City Council,

previously approved planned unit development petition in 1969.
4. Comprehensive Plan Proposal: The subject property, as shown in

Planner's Comments
1. The critiera for evaluating Hansen and Klingelhutz's proposed
Santa Vera planned community development proposal is identified in
Section 14 of City Ordinance 47. The purpose of the P-1 use district,
among other things, is to: "Provide the means for greater creativity
and flexibility...." "Provide for the establishment of regulations
and procedures for planned unit development .... developments to meet
the needs of moderate and low cost housing.... without sacrificing
quality, construction and the city's.... tax base."
2. During the sketch plan stage, the Planning Commission should
restrict their comments on the proposal's consistency with the existing
City Plan and zoning ordinance.
3. Since 1969, Hansen and Klingelhutz Construction Company has made
a concerted effort to construct a high quality residential neighborhood
in accordance with approved city plans. Part of this development
included, but was not limited to, an open space system, single family
detached housing, a few duplex lots and a municipal street network
consistent with the City Plan
4. Hansen and Klingelhutz has created not only an aesthetically

structures constructed to date leaves the casual visitor and resident
with a very positive impression of the stability and quality of the
neighborhood.
5. From a planning perspective, I strongly support the action of
previous planning commissions and councils in "philosophically"
agreeing to allowing Hansen and Klingelhutz to construct apartments
north of Chanhassen Elementary School. However, the proposal before
the Planning Commission (enclosures 1, 2 and 3, attached) leaves this
planner rather cold as to the compatibility or consistency of the
new structures to the high quality, economy and environment of the
Western Hills neighborhood. To put these comments more bluntly, I
would have a very difficult time supporting the petitioner's request
at a public hearing which will be called to test neighborhood sentiment
on the issue of constructing apartments north of Chanhassen Elementary
School.
Planner's Recommendation
I think the developers should be encouraged to proceed with implementation
of the Western Hills Planned Unit Development, however, I think the
structure type and amenity package associated with apartments north
of the school should be beefed up somewhat.
