Re Lodging Tax
BACKGROUND
At the May 28 the Council voted to table a vote on instituting a 3 Lodging
Tax Since that meeting the Chamber has provided additional information
regarding their proposal
The Chamber has met with the 4 area hotels and each hotel supports the
Lodging Tax Letters of support are attached
The Lodging Tax applies a 3 tax to hotel stays This tax mainly applies to
visitors of the community Residents would be affected only if they stayed in a
Chanhassen hotel One element of concern regarding the tax is that
Chanhassen businesses and their vendors often patronize the hotels and thus
would pay the tax Linda Walton Chamber President did contact several area
businesses and their comments are attached
Under this agreement 95 5 retained by city for administration efforts and
costs of the proceeds of the tax would be used to fund the Chanhassen Area
Chamber of Commerce and Visitors Bureau CVB The CVB would be
required to do the following
Maintain a member of city staff as a voting member of the advisory
body
Provide the city with a copy of the annual budget and marketing plan
Provide the city with an executive summary of funds received and
expended within 60 days of the end of the fiscal year
Also attached is a sample budget The left side of the sheet shows the budget
of a CVB that is currently operating for comparison purposes The right side
of the sheet shows a mock up budget for the Chanhassen CVB s first year
The Chamber proposes that no new staff would be added in the first year
instead the CVB would utilize current Chamber staff and outsourcing
The Chamber has also noted that this Tax funding would allow the CVB to
pursue state grants These grants require staff time and matching funds which
the Chamber currently lacks
Additional materials are attached
The City of Chanhassen A growing community with clean lakes quality schools a charming downtown thriving businesses winding trails and beautiful parks A great place to live work and play

Support for the Lodging Tax
Hi Linda
Thank you for you voicemail today I appreciate you taking the time to meet with us hoteliers last Friday We are in
support of the lodging tax as an avenue to bring more people to the Chanhassen area Although I will not be able to
attend the City Council Meeting when the discussion arises I do feel that the creation of some form of a visitor s bureau
will benefit the Chanhassen area
Thank you

Support for Lodging Tax
Linda
I support the collection of a lodging tax 3 in the Chanhassen area if there is a structured group of forward minded
individuals making marketing decisions with a well thought out marketing plan to increase the number of outside visitors
to the city of Chanhassen In my opinion a full operational and marketing plan should be in place in regard to specific
expenses and advertising dollars allocated prior to approving any lodging tax
I believe that the city of Chanhassen would benefit greatly from the additional marketing exposure created with this
lodging tax fund provided it is spent wisely
Thanks

Proposed eVB
Dear Linda
I want to personally thank you for your efforts in attempting to initiate a Convention Visitor s Bureau for the
Chanhassen Area It is a shame that the vote was put off for another month since the revenue a CVB would
have made from these busy months will never be recouped
Having served on the Board of Directors for the Duluth Convention Visitor s Bureau and having been
Chairperson for the Willmar Lakes Area Convention Visitor s Bureau I realize first hand the immense
benefits a CVB can bring to a community The motto that kept both CVB s focused on their mission was
putting heads in beds After all that is what generates the income which supports all CVB efforts The various
projects advertising and promotions that a CVB initiates exceed the efforts that individual properties can
conduct Obviously the overall results should be more heads in beds
The guests that the CVB generates as well as the current hotel guests have an incredible positive impact on the
community They spend their money no differently than we do They need food gas pharmacies hair cuts
entertainment personal care items etc etc Duluth was in the depths of a recession when I first joined the
Duluth CVB The opportunity we saw was developing tourism Today tourism is one of the main industries that
drives the Duluth economy In Willmar we competed for conventions and various groups with other cities in
Minnesota When we won a bid and the event arrived the town was noticeably busier than usual WalMart was
humming There were waiting lines at restaurants The positive financial impact was obvious
There are so many CVB s throughout Minnesota that the towns which do not have a CVB are simply leaving
money on the table and helping other communities grow We have an opportunity to capture room demand from
the west These travelers come to the Twin Cities from smaller towns and are nervous dealing with the traffic
and size of the Metropolitan Area They want to wake up Sunday morning and head home without having to
deal with the Twin Cities traffic and size We are a perfect location Whether they are coming to the MegaMall
or the Metrodome we allow them easy egress from the Twin Cities on Sunday morning This is not even
considering the fact that we have the Chanhassen Dinner Theatre and the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum to
attract visitors
Overall I know that when your efforts realize the initiation of a Chanhassen Area Convention Visitor s
Bureau we will all understand the positive effects from increased sales throughout the community Thank you
again for your time and efforts Have a great weekend

Comments regarding implementing a Lodging Tax from local business leaders in conversation with
Linda Walton May 2007
IWCO Beverly Lohs HR Director
Bev expressed that she would be receptive to receiving any phone calls from council members regarding
her comments Our company sees the implementation of a Lodging Tax as creating and investment in
the community I am far more concerned with traffic safety issues than with an added 3 room tax
As the largest employer in the city we bring in many people from out ofthe area and the tax on hotel
rooms in Chanhassen would not change our habits IWCO currently uses Americlnn and Country Suites
in that order
lifeTime Fitness Chris Fazi General Manager
Chris planned to e mail a statement to me but I have not received it to date During our phone
conversation Chris stated that they typically bring in 70 people for a two week stay each month The
tax would effect their bottom line but he stated that the philosophy of lifeTime Fitness is to be
connected with the community He personally believes that the tax would bring a benefit to the
community and would personally support it
Emerson Process Management Rosemount Inc Mark Anderson Facilities Manager
Mark and I talked by phone and he wanted to ask others in the building before responding Two days
later Mark called and stated that their official position was to not support a tax increase simply because
they didn t support the idea of Chanhassen being marketed outside of the community He did follow up
by stating that ifthe tax was implemented the company would not change their local lodging habits
Roberts Automatic Products Jim Roberts President
During our phone conversation Jim explained that they rarely bring people in from out of town but
when they do they always suggest they stay locally The base lodging prices locally are in most cases
lower than staying in outlying cities so he didn t think even with the added 3 tax that room rates would
exceed our neighbors rates

CHANHA55EN R
C R OF CoMMEItCE VISITORS BUlliU
Date May 4 2007
To Chanhassen City Council
From Linda Walton President
Chanhassen Area Chamber of Commerce
Visitors Bureau
RE Proposal for your consideration Implementation of a citywide lodging tax
The Chanhassen Area Chamber of Commerce Visitors Bureau hereby proposes that the
City of Chanhassen adopt a citywide lodging tax of 3 as allowed by Minnesota statue to
establish a source of funds to be used for advertising and promoting the community as a
visitor destination Minnesota Statute 469 190 authorizes Cities to impose a tax on the
gross receipts of the furnishings of certain lodgings Lodging Tax of which 95 of
the gross proceeds from any tax imposedfundalocal convention or tourism bureau for
the purpose of marketing and promoting refer to the included copy of Statute 469 190
The Chanhassen Area Chamber of Commerce and Visitors Bureau is willing and able to
receive such funds to carry out activities to advance the economic impact of tourism in
the Chanhassen area
Of the Lodging Tax collected by the City of Chanhassen 5 would be retained by the
City for administrative purposes All money received by the Chanhassen Area Chamber
of Commerce Visitors Bureau would be placed in a segregated fund and designated for
the operation and activities of marketing and promotion Separate books and records for
the operation and activities would be maintained
The travel and tourism industry provides a major economic impact overall to
communities not just the hotel industry This economic impact benefits the entire
community According to the most recent statistics available from the Minnesota
Department of Tourism the travelers spending by expenditure breaks down as shown
below
Shopping 25
Recreation 25
Food 24
Lodging 14
Transportation 11
Travelers in Minnesota spend in excess of 32 million a day which supports a variety of
businesses and adds to the total economic strength of our communities
13
According to Gayle Junnila metro regional manager with the Minnesota Department of
Tourism people are traveling regionally and according to the Travel Industry
Association of America the growing trends in the u s are Cultural Heritage and
OutdoorlWildlife Tourism Chanhassen has both the cultural draw of the Chanhassen
Dinner Theatres and the outdoor wildlife draw with the University of MN Landscape
Arboretum as well as the close proximity with Lake Minnetonka and the west metro area
parks and lakes
The most recent data provided by the Minnesota Department of Tourism shows that
between June 2005 and May 2006 the DIRECT Economic Impact of Expenditures by
Travelers in Carver County as
Travelers Expenditures 117 544475
Full Time Equivalent Jobs 1 677
Local Revenue 2 533 819
Over the past month both myself and Mark Halla Vice Chair of the Chamber Board for
2007 visited with representatives of all of our Chanhassen lodging facilities and received
overwhelming support from a majority of those we spoke with In fact they even
requested we implement this tax as soon as possible to capture the tax collected during
their the busy season and have an immediate influx of approximately 50 000 to support
advertising and promoting our community
With the existing draw to the area the easy access from our community to points of
interest as well as MSP International Airport and major highway infrastructure plus the
area growth projected within the next 5 years the opinion of Chanhassen Area Chamber
of Commerce Visitors Bureau is that it is time to move forward with the
implementation of a Lodging Tax to enable strategic marketing applications which will
aid to the total economic strength of our community now and in the years to come

SUBJ Review Assessment Deferral Policy PW399
DISCUSSION
It has been the City s practice to consider assessment deferrals on past assessment
projects Minnesota State Statue 435 193 allows cities to defer special assessments and
establish standards and guidelines for determining the existence of hardship and for
determining the existence of a disability Staff would like Council to consider adopting a
standard policy for assessment deferrals
Staff has incorporated Minnesota State Statutes 435 193 435 195 in developing
standards and guidelines as stated in the attached Resolution If the City Council decides
to allow deferrals a Resolution would authorize the City Council in its discretion to
defer the payment of an assessment for any homestead property owned by a person for
whom it would be a hardship to make the payment if the owner is a person who is 65
years of age or older or a person who is retired by virtue of a permanent and total
disability The applicant must meet certain criteria and the very low income limits as set
by the Department of Housing and Urban Development CHUD verify that the property
being assessed is their principal place of domicile to be eligible Staff has used the HUD
income limits because they are set by their research reports about housing and economics
in demographic areas However State Statue does not set precedence as to what income
limits may be used by a City Any persons requesting a deferral would do so at the City
Council meeting which the assessment is to be adopted and then fill out a no fee
application and submit it within 30 days of the adoption of the assessment to staff to
determine eligibility Upon determining eligibility staff would ask the City Council to
consider approving a resolution allowing deferment of the assessment
The deferment may not be deferred for a period longer then the time set by the City
Council as the tiIlleover which the project is to be assessed interest will be charged at
the rate adopted at the time of the assessment and such interest shall accrue on said
principal until the assessment is paid in full The option of the homeowner to defer the
payment of special assessments shall terminate and all amounts accumulated plus accrued
interest shall become due and payable upon the occurrence of any of the following
events sale transfer or subdivision of the property or any part thereof or in any way
conveyed to another person the subject property loses its homestead status for any
reason the death of the owner qualified for deferral status unless a surviving spouse is
eligible for benefits or if the City Council determines that a hardship no longer exists

Between March 14 and March 28 1 200 households were randomly selected to
participate in the survey Of those 1 200 57 were returned as undeliverable 513
surveys were returned for a 45 response rate The average response rate for these
surveys is in the 25 40 range which indicates that Chanhassen residents took this
survey very seriously
The full results are attached but a few highlights are
94 of residents 1 rate the quality of life in Chanhassen as either excellent or
good same as 2005
89 of residents feel very or somewhat safe from violent crimes up
slightly from 87 in 2005

Understanding the Results
Survey Administration
Following the mailing of a pre survey notification postcard to a random sample of 1 200
households surveys were mailed to the same residences approximately one weel later A
reminder letter and a new survey were sent to the same households after two weel s of
the mailed postcards 57 were undeliverable due to vacant or not found addresses
Completed surveys were received from 513 residents for a response rate of 45
Typically the response rates obtained on citizen surveys range hom 25 to 40
It is customary to describe the precision of estimates made from surveys by a level of
confidence or margin of error The 95 percent confidence level for this survey of
1 200 residents is generally no greater than plus or minus 5 percentage points around
any given percent reported for the entire sample
The results were weighted to reflect the demographic profile of all residents in the City
of Chanhasse For more information on the survey methodology see Appendix B in

scales often are the right choice in other measurement tasl s we have found that ratings
of almost every local government service in almost every jurisdiction tend on average to
be positive that is above the scale midpoint Therefore to permit finer distinctions
among positively rated services EGFP offers three options across which to spread those
ratings EGFP is more neutral because it requires no positive statement of service
quality to judge as agree disagree scales require and finally EGFP intends to measure
absolute quality of service delivery or community quality unlil e satisfaction scales
which ignore residents perceptions of quality in favor of their report on the acceptability
of the level of service offered

Putting Evaluations onto a 1 DO Point Scale
Although responses to many of the evaluative questions were made on a 4 point scale
with 1 representing the best rating and 4 the worst many of the results in this summary
are reported on a common scale where 0 is the worst possible rating and 100 is the best
possible rating If everyone reported excellent then the result would be 100 on the
100 point scale Lil ewise if all respondents gave a poor rating the result would be 0
on the 100 point scale If the average rating for quality of life was good then the
result would be 67 on a 100 point scale fair would be 33 on the 100 point scale The
95 percent confidence interval around an average score on the 100 point scale is no
greater than plus or minus 3 points based on all respondents

SURVEY BACKGROUND
About The National Citizen Survey
The National Citizen SurveyTM The NCSTM is a collaborative effort between National
Research Center Inc NRC and the International City County Management
Association ICMA
The survey and its administration are standardized to assure high quality survey
methods and comparable results across The National Citizen SurveyTM jurisdictions
Participating households are selected at random and the household member who
responds is selected without bias Multiple mailings give each household more than one
chance to participate with self addressed and postage paid envelopes Results are
statistically weighted to reflect the proper demographic composition of the entire
community
The National Citizen SurveyTM customized for this jurisdiction was developed in close
cooperation with local jurisdiction staff The City of Chanhassen staff selected items
from a menu of questions about services and community problems they defined the
jurisdiction boundaries NRC used for sampling and they provided the appropriate
letterhead and signatures for mailings City of Chanhassen staff also determined local
interest in a variety of add on options to The National Citizen SurveyTM Basic Service

UNDERSTANDING THE RESULTS
Survey Administration
Following the mailing of a pre survey notification postcard to a random sample of 1 200
households surveys were mailed to the same residences approximately one weel later A
reminder letter and a new survey were sent to the same households after two weeks of
the mailed postcards 57 were undeliverable due to vacant or not found addresses
Completed surveys were received from 513 residents for a response rate of 45
Typically the response rates obtained on citizen surveys range from 25 to 40
It is customary to describe the precision of estimates made from surveys by a level of
confidence or margin of error The 95 percent confidence level for this survey of
1 200 residents is generally no greater than plus or minus 5 percentage points around
any given percent reported for the entire sample
The results were weighted to reflect the demographic profile of all residents in the City
of Chanhassen For more information on the survey methodology see Appendix B A
copy of the survey materials can be found in Appendix C
Survey Validity
The question of survey validity has two parts 1 how can we be confident that the
results from our sample are representative of the results we ould have gotten had we
administered the survey to the entire population and 2 how closely do the perspectives
recorded on the survey reflect what residents really believe or do
5
l
To answer the first question we use the best survey research practices for the resources
spent to assure that the results from the sample reflect the opinions of residents in the
entire jurisdiction These practices include

UnderstandinG the Results
4 Selecting the respondent within the household using an unbiased sampling
procedurel
5 Contacting potential respondents three times to encourage response from people
who may have different opinions or habits than those who would respond with
only a single prompt
6 Soliciting response on jurisdiction letterhead signed by the highest ranl ing
elected official or staff member
7 Providing a self addressed postage paid retum envelope
8 Offering the survey in Spanish when appropriate and requested by City officials
9 Using the most recent available information about the characteristics of
jurisdiction residents to weight the data to reflect the demographics of the
population
The answer to the second question about how closely the perspectives recorded on the
survey reflect what residents really believe or do is more complex Resident responses to
surveys are influenced by a variety of factors For questions about service quality
residents expectations for service quality playa role as well as the objective quality of
the service provided the way the resident perceives the entire community that is the
context in which the service is provided the scale on which the resident is asl ed to
r cord her opinion and of course the opinion itself that a resident holds about the
service Similarly a resident s report of certain behaviors is colored by what he or she
believes is the socially desirable response e g reporting tolerant behaviors toward
oppressed groups lil elihood of voting a tax increase for services to poor people use of
altemative modes of travel to worl besides the single occupancy vehicle her memory of
the actual behavior if it is not a question speculating about future actions lil e a vote
her confidence that she can be honest without suffering any negative consequences thus
the need for anonymity as well as the actual behavior itself
8 How closely survey results come to recordi ng the way a person really feels or behaves
often is measured by the coincidence of reported behavior with observed current
behavior e g driving habits reported intentions to behave with observed future
behavior e g voting choices or reported opinions about current community quality with
objective characteristics of the community e g feelings of safety correlated with rates of
crime There is a body of scientific literature that has investigated the relationship
between reported behaviors and actual behaviors Well conducted surveys by and large
do capture true respondent behaviors or intentions to act with great accuracy
Predictions of voting outcomes tend to be quite accurate using survey research as do
reported behaviors that are not about highly sensitive issues e g family abuse or other

statistical adjustments can be made to correct for the respondents tendency to report
what they thinl the correct response should be
Research on the correlation of resident opinion about service quality and objective
ratings of service quality tend to be ambiguous some showing stronger relationships
than others NRC s own research has demonstrated that residents who report the lowest
ratings of street repair live in communities with objectively worse street conditions than
those who report high ratings of street repair based on road quality delay in street
repair number of road repair employees Similarly the lowest rated fire services appear
to be objectively worse than the highest rated fire services expenditures per capita
response time professional status of fire fighters breadth of services and training
provided Whether some research confirms or disconfirms that relationship between
what residents thinl about a community and what can be seen objectively in a
community we have argued that resident opinion is a perspective that cannot be ignored

times a day but residents thinl that your trash haul is lousy you still have a problem

important advantages over other scale possibilities very good to very bad very satisfied
to very dissatisfied strongly agree to strongly disagree as examples EGFP is used by
the plurality of jurisdictions conducting citizen surveys across the U S The advantage of
familiarity is one we did not want to dismiss because elected officials staff and residents
already are acquainted with opinion surveys measured this way EGFP also has the
advantage of offering three positive options rather than only two over which a resident
can offer an opinion While symmetrical scales often are the right choice in other
measurement tasl s we have found that ratings of almost every local govemment service
in almost every jurisdiction tend on average to be positive that is above the scale
midpoint Therefore to permit finer distinctions among positively rated services EGFP
offers three options across which to spread those ratings EGFP is more neutral because
it requires no positive statement of service quality to judge as agree disagree scales
require and finally EGFP intends to measure absolute quality of service delivery or

Don t Know Responses
On many of the questions in the survey respondents may answer don t l now The
proportion of respondents giving this reply is shown in the full set of responses included
in Appendix A However these responses have been removed from the analyses
presented in the body of the report In other words the tables and graphs display the
responses from respondents who had an opinion about a specific item
For two of the items related to crime victimization and crime reporting don t l now
responses were not removed These questions were not evaluative rather respondents
were asl ed if they or any member of their household had been a victim of a crime within
the last year If they were they were then asl ed whether the crime had b en reported to
police
Putting Evaluations Onto a lOOPoint Scale
Although responses to many of the evaluative questions were made on a 4 point scale
with 1 representing the best rating and 4 the worst many of the results in this summary
are reported on a common scale where 0 is the worst possible rating and 100 is the best
possible rating If everyone reported excellent then the result would be 100 on the
100 point scale Lilwwise if all respondents gave a poor rating the result would be 0
on the 100 point scale If the average rating for quality of life was good then the
result would be 67 on a 100 point scale fair would be 33 on the 100 point scale The
95 percent confidence interval around an average score on the 100 point scale is no
greater than plus or minus 3 points based on all respondents
Interpreting Comparisons to Previous Years
This report contains comparisons with prior years results In this report we are
comparing 2007 data with 2005 data in the graphs In the graphs there are two
separate representations labeled by year The table following a graph contains 2007 data
only and is labeled accordingly Differences between years can be considered
statistically significant if they are greater than 5 percentage points or 3 points on a

The City of Chanhassen Citizen Survey
ApPENDIX B SURVEY METHODOLOGY
The National Citizen SurveyTM was developed to provide local jurisdictions an accurate
affordable and easy way to assess and interpret resident opinion about important
community issues While standardization of question wording and survey methods
provide the rigor to assure valid results each jurisdiction has enough flexibility to
construct a customized version of The National Citizen SurveyTM that asl s residents
about l ey local services and important local issues
Results offer insight into residents perspectives about local government performance
and as such provide important benchmarl s for jurisdictions worl ing on performance
measurement The National Citizen SurveyTM is designed to help with budget land use
and strategic planning as well as to communicate with local reside ts The National
Citizen Survey permits questions to test support for local policies and answers to its
questions also speal to community trust and involvement in cominunity building
a tivities as well as to resident demographic characteristics
Sampling
Approximately 1 200 households were selected to participate in the survey using a
stratified systematic sampling method 3 An individual within each household was
selected using the birthday method 4
Survey Administration
Selected households rec ived three mailings one weel apart beginning March 14 2007
The first mailing was a prenotification postcard announcing the upcoming survey The
next mailing contained a letter from the mayor inviting the household to participate a
questionnaire and postage paid return envelope The final mailing contained a reminder
letter and another survey and postage paid return envelope Completed surveys were
g collected over the following 5 weel s

Response Rate and Confidence Intervals
of the 1 143 eligible households 513 completed the survey providing a response rate of
45 Approximately 57 addresses sampled were vacant or not found 5 In general
the response rates obtained on citizen surveys range from 25 to 40 The sample of
households was selected systematically and impartially horn a list of residences in the
j
c
7

12
3 Systematic sampling is a method that closely approximates random sampling by selecting every Nth address until the desired
number of households is chosen
4 The birthday method is a process to remove bias in the selection of a person within the household by asking the person whose
birthday has most recently passed to complete the questionnaire The underlying assumption in this method is that day of birth has
no relationship to the way people respond to surveys butleaving selection of respondent to household members will lead to bias
5 Eligible households refer to addresses that belong to residences that are not vacant within the City of Chanhassen5

The City of Chanhassen Citizen Survey
t ppendix B Survoy Methcdoogy
United States maintained by the U S postal service and sold to NRC through an
independent vendor For each household one adult selected in an unbiased fashion was
asked to complete the survey The sample drawn for Chanhassen used USPS data to
approximate the geographic boundaries of the jurisdiction though some households just
outside the city limits may have received surveys The survey completers who technically
do not reside in the jurisdiction may choose to respond to the survey because they feel an
affiliation with the jurisdiction and its services Local govemments often have a sphere
of influence providing in jurisdiction services that perimeter residents use or even
providing services outside the jurisdiction boundaries
In theory in 95 cases out of 100 the results based on such samples will differ by no
more than 5 percentage points in either direction horn what would have been obtained
had responses been collected horn all Chanhassen adults This difference is also called a
margin of error
6 This difference from the presumed population finding is referred to
as the sampling error For subgroups of responses the margin of sampling error is
larger In addition to sampling error the practical difficulties of conducting any survey
of the public may introduce other sources of error For example the failure of some of
the selected adults to participate in the sample or the difficulty of including all sectors of
the population such as residents of some institutions or group residences may lead to
somewhat different results
Weighting and Analyzing the Data
The surveys were analyzed using the SPSS statistical pacl age Frequency distributions
and average mean ratings are presented in the body of the report
The demographic characteristics of the sample were compared to those of the City of
Chanhassen as reflected in the information sent by staff to National Research Center
Inc When necessary survey results were statistically adjusted to reflect the l nown
population profile
8 Generally two variables are used in a weighting scheme Known population
characteristics are compared to the characteristics of survey respondents Characteristics
chosen as weighting variables are generally selected because they are not in proportion to
what is shown in a jurisdiction s demographic profile and because differences in opinion
are observed between subgroups of these characteristics The two socioeconomic
characteristics that were used to weight the survey results were gender age and housing
unit type Other discrepancies between the whole population and the sample were also
aided by the weighting due to the intercorrelation of many socioeconomic characteristics
although the percentages are not always identical in the sample compared to the
population norms The results of the weighting scheme are presented in the table on the
following page

The City of Chanhassen Citizen Survey
SURVEY BACKGROUND
About The National Citizen Survey
The National Citizen SurveyTM fhe NCS TM is a collaborative effort between National
Research Center Inc NRC and the Intemational City County Management
Association ICMA
The survey and its administration are standardized to assure high quality survey
methods and comparable results across The National Citizen SurveyTM jurisdictions
Participating households are selected at random and the household member who
responds is selected without bias Multiple mailings give each household more than one
chance to participate with self addessed and postage paid envelopes Results are
statistically weighted to reflect the proper demographic composition of the etltire
community
The National Citizen Survey customized for this jurisdiction was developed in close
cooperation with local jurisdiction staff The City of Chanhassen staff selected items
from a menu of questions about services and community problems they defined the
jurisdiction boundaries NRC used for sampling and they provided the appropriate
letterhead and signatures for mailings City of Chanhassen staff also determined local
interest in a variety of add on options to The National Citizen Survey Basic Service

Use of the Excellent Good Fair Poor Response Scale
The scale on which respondents are asl ed to record their opinions about service and
community quality is excellent good fair or poor EGFP This scale has
important advantages over other scale possibilities very good to very bad very satisfied
to very dissatisfied strongly agree to strongly disagree as examples EGFP is used by
the plurality of jurisdictions conducting citizen surveys across the u s The advantage of
familiarity is one we did not want to dismiss because elected officials staff and residents
already are acquainted with opinion surveys measured this way EGFP also has the
advantage of offering three positive options rather than only two over which a resident
can offer an opinion While symmetrical scales often are the right choice in other
measurement tasl s we have found that ratings of almost every local govemment service
in almost every jurisdiction tend on average to he positive that is above the scal
midpoint Therefore to permit finer distinctions among positively rated services EGFP
offers three options across which to spread those ratings EGFP is more neutral because
it requires no positive statement of service quality to judge as agree disagree scales
require and finally EGFP intends to measure absolute quality of service delivery or
community quality unlil e satisfaction scales which ignore residents perceptions of
quality in favor of their report on the acceptability of the level of service offered
Putting Evaluations onto a lOOPoint Scale
Although responses to many of the evaluative questions were made on a 4 point scale
with 4 representing the best rating and 1 the worst many of the results in this summary
are reported on a common scale where 0 is the worst possible rating and 100 is the best
possible rating If everyone reported excellent then the result would be 100 on the
100 point scale Lil ewise if all respondents gave a poor rating the result would be 0
on the 100 point scale If the average rating for quality of life was good then the
result would be 67 on a 100 point scale fair would be 33 on the 100 point scale The
95 percent confidence interval around an average score on the 100 point scale is no
greater than plus or minus 3 points based on all respondents

Interpreting the Results
Comparisons are provided when similar questions are included in our database and
there are at least five other jurisdictions in which the question was asl ed Where
comparisons are available three numbers are provided in the table The first column is
your jurisdiction s rating on the 100 point scale The second column is the ranl
assigned to your jurisdiction s rating among jurisdictions where a similar question was
asl ed The third column is the number of jurisdictions that asl ed a similar question
Fourth the ranl is expressed as a percentile to indicate its distance from the top score
This ranl 5th highest out of 25 jurisdictions results for example translates to a
percentile the 80th percentile in this example A percentile indicates the percent of
jurisdictions with identical or lower ratings Therefore a rating at the 80th percentile
would mean that your jurisdiction s rating is equal to or better than 80 percent of the
ratings from other jurisdictions Conversely 20 percent of the jurisdictions where a
similar question was asl ed had higher ratings
Alongside the ranl and percentile appears a comp rison above the norm below the
1 h Th I t f b b I 1 tnormorSlmlartotenormISevauaIon0aoveeoworslmlar0
comeS frorn a statistical comparison of your jurisdiction s rating to the norm the average
rating from all the comparison jurisdictions where a similar question was asl ed
Differences of no more than 3 points on the 100 point scale between your jurisdiction s
ratings and the average based on the appropriate comparisons from the database are
considered statistically significant and thus are marl ed as above or below the
norm when differences between your jurisdiction s ratings and the national norms are
less than 3 points they are marl ed as similar to the norm
The data are represented visually in a chart that accompanies each table Your
jurisdiction s percentile for each compared item is marl ed with a blacl line on the chart

ApPENDIX B FREQUENTLY ASKED
QUESTIONS ABOUT THE CITIZEN
SURVEY DATABASE
What is in the citizen survey database
NRC s database includes the results from citizen surveys conducted in over 500
jurisdictions in the United States These are public opinion polls answered by hundreds
of thousands of residents around the country We have recorded analyzed and stored
responses to thousands of surVey questions dealing with resident perceptions about the
quality of community life and public trust and residents report of their use of public
facilities Respondents to these surveys are intended to represent over 50 million
Americans
What kinds of questions are included
Residents ratings of the quality of virtually every ldnd of local govemment service are
included from police fire and trash haul to animal control planning and cemeteries
Many dimensions of quality of life are included such as feeling of safety and
opportunities for dining recreation and shopping as well as ratings of the overall quality
of community life and community as a place to raise children and retire
What is so unique about National Research Center s Citizen Survey database
It is the only database of its size that contains the people s perceptions about
govemment service delivery and quality of life For example others use govemment
statistics about crime to deduce the quality of police services or speed of pot hole repair
to draw conclusions about the quality of street maintenance Only National Research
Center s database adds the opinion of service recipients themselves to the service quality
equation We believe that conclusions about service or community quality are made
prematurely if opinions of the community s residents themselves are missing
n What is the database used for
Benchmarl ing Our clients use the comparative information in the database to help
interpret their own citizen survey results to create or revise community plans to
evaluate the success of policy or budget decisions to measure local govemment
performance We don t lmow what is small or tall without comparing Tal ing the pulse
of the community has little meaning without lmowing what pulse rate is too high and
what is too low So many surveys of service satisfaction tum up at least good citizen
evaluations that we need to l now how others rate their services to understand if good
is good enough Furthermore in the absence of national or peer community
comparisons a jurisdiction is left with comparing its fire protection rating to its street
maintenance rating That comparison is unfair Streets alwayslose to fire We need to

asl more important and harder questions We need to lmow how our residents ratings
of fire service compare to opinions about fire service in other communities
So what if we find that our public opinions are better or for that matter worse
than opinions in other communities What does it mean
A police department that provides the fastest and most efficient service one that closes
most of its cases solves most of its crimes and keeps the crime rate low still has a
problem to fix if its clients believe services are not very good compared to ratings
received by objectively worse departments
National Research Center s database can help that police department or any city
department to understand how well citizens thinl it is doing Without the comparative
data from National Research Center s database it would be lil e bowling in a toumament
without l nowing what the other teams are scoring We recommend that citizen opinion
be used in conjunction with other sources of data to help managers lmow how to
respond to comparative results
iE
Aren t comparisons of questions from different surveys like comparing apples
and oranges
It is true that you can t simply tal e a given result from one survey and compare it to the
result from a different survey National Research Center Inc principals have pioneered
and reported their methods for converting all survey responses to the same scale
Because scales responses will differ among types of survey questions National Research
Center Inc statisticians have developed statistical algorithms which adjust question
results based on many characteristics of the question its scale and the survey methods
All results are then converted to the PTM percent to maximum scale with a minimum
score of 0 equaling the lowest possible rating to a maximum score of 100 equaling the
highest possible rating We then can provide a norm that not only controls for question
differences but also controls for differences in types of survey methods This way we put
all questions on the same scale and a norm can be offered for communities of given sizes
or in various regions
p
v How can managers trust the comparability of results
Principals of National Research Center Inc have submitted their worl to peer reviewed
scholarly joumals where its publication fully describes the rigor of our methods and the
quality of ourfindings We have published articles in public Administration Review
Joumal of Policy Analysis and Management and Goveming and we wrote a bool
Citizen Surveys How to do them how to use them what they mean that describes in
detail how survey responses can be adjusted to provide fair comparisons for ratings
among many jurisdictions Our worl on calculating national norms for resident
opinions about service delivery and quality of life won the Samuel C May award for
research excellence hom the Westem Govemmental Research Association

SURVEY BACKGROUND
About The National Citizen Survey
The National Citizen SurveyTM The NCSTM is a collaborative effort between National
Research Center Inc NRC amI the International City County Management

The National Citizen SurveyTM was developed to provide local jurisdictions an accurate
affordable and easy way to assess and interpret resident opinion about important

provide the rigor to assure valid results each jurisdiction has enough flexibility to
construct a customized versio n of The National Citizen SurveyTM that asl s residents
about l ey local services and important local issues
Results offer insight into residents perspectives about local government performance
and as such provide important benchmarl s for jurisdictions worl ing on performance
measurement The National Citizen SurveyTM is designed to help with budget land use
and strategic planning as well as to communicate with local residents The National
Citizen Survey permits questions to test support for local policies and answers to its
questions also speal to community trust and involvement in community building
activities as well as to resident demographic characteristics
The survey and its administration are standardized to assure high quality survey
methods and comparable results across The National Citizen Survey jurisdictions
Participating households are selected at random and the household member who
responds is selected without bias Multiple mailings give each household more than one
chance to participate with self addressed and postage paid envelopes Results are
statistically weighted to reflect the proper demographic composition of the entire
community The National Citizen SurveyTM customized for this jurisdiction was
developed in close cooperation with local jurisdiction staff The City of Chanhassen staff
selected items from a menu of questions about services and community problems they
defined the jurisdiction boundaries we used for sampling and they provided the
appropriate letterhead and signatures for mailings City of Chanhassen staff also
determined local interest in a variety of add on options for The National Citizen

The City of Chanhassen Citizen Survey
UNDERSTANDING THE RESULTS
Don t Know Responses
On many of the questions in the survey respondents may answer don t l now The
proportion of respondents giving this reply is shown in the full set of responses included
in Appendix A of the Report of Results However these responses have been removed
from the analyses presented in this report In other words the tables display the
responses horn respondents who had an opinion about a specific item
Putting Evaluations onto a lOOPoint Scale
Although responses to many of the evaluative questions were made on a 4 point scale
with 4 representing the best rating and 1 the worst many of the results in this summary
are reported on a common scale where 0 is the worst possible rating and 100 is the best
possible rating If everyone reported excellent then the result would be 100 on the
100 point scale Lil ewise if all respondents gave a poor rating the result would be 0
on the 100 point scale If the average rating for quality of life was good then the
result would be 67 on a 100 point scale fair would be 33 on the 100 point scale
Understanding the Tables
In this report comparisons between geographic subgroups are shown For most of the
questions we have shown only one number for each question Usually this number is
the rating on a 100 point scale Sometimes this scale was not appropriate to use In
these cases we have summarized responses to show only the proportion of respondents
giving a certain answer for example the percent of respondents who reported a crime
or the percent of respondents who felt the rate of growth was about rightFor a few
questions we have shown the full set of responses these include the question about
respondents perceptions about the economy51
i5
75 Anova and chi square tests of significance were applied to these comparisons of survey
questions by geographic subgroups A p value of 0 05 or less indicates that there is less
than a 5 probability that differences observed between subgroups are due to chance or
in other words a greater than 95 probability that the differences observed are real
where differences were statistically significant they are marl ed in gray

CHANHASSEN CITY COUNCIL
WORK SESSION
MAY 29, 2007
Mayor Furlong called the work session to order at 5:50 p.m..
COUNCIL MEMBERS PRESENT: Mayor Furlong, Councilwoman Ernst, Councilman
Peterson and Councilman Litsey
COUNCIL MEMBERS ABSENT: Councilwoman Tjornhom
STAFF PRESENT: Todd Gerhardt, Laurie Hokkanen, Kate Aanenson and Todd Hoffman
JOINT MEETINGS WITH COMMISSIONS:
SENIOR COMMISSION MEMBERS PRSENT: Curt Robinson, Pat McGough, Barbara
Nevin, Charlie Robbins, Jean Mancini, and Virginia Prior
Chairman Curt Robinson reviewed the issues of importance to the Senior Commission. Jean
Mancini reported on the "In Case of Emergency (ICE)" program the Senior Commission is
intending to launch at their open house in September in which Deputy Fire Marshal/ Emergency
Management Coordinator Ed Coppersmith will give a presentation having had experience
dealing with the ICE program in New York. Curt Robinson stated transportation continues to be
a frustration for the Senior Commission. Attendance continues to increase at the Senior Center.
The American Legion has taken over the veterans monument project. In the area of
communication, the computer training has slowed down. The Life Time Learning program
which is being offered through Augsburg College, the College of the Third Age, continues to be
popular and will continue to be sponsored by Klein Bank. Educating future generations of
seniors, communicating with neighboring senior centers, community education, volunteer
opportunities for seniors, and senior parking are ongoing projects. The Senior Expo attendance
was down this past year so the commission will have a meeting to discuss future options,
possibly going to an every other year schedule. Chairman Robinson closed the meeting by
thanking the City Council, Sharmeen Al-Jaff and Sue Bill for their support.
PARK AND RECREATION COMMISSION MEMBERS PRESENT: Glenn Stolar, Jeff
Daniel, Paula Atkins, Dan Campion, and Thor Smith
Chairman Stolar started out the meeting by thanking City Council for their support with projects
such as the Lake Ann Park parking lot and rain garden improvements, Lake Ann Park ballfield
lighting project, Lake Ann Park Parkview picnic shelter and the off leash dog area. Jeff Daniel
updated the council on the Carver County Board meeting in which they approved funding to
partner with Chanhassen and Shorewood for improvements at Lake Minnewashta Regional Park
for an off leash dog park. The park will probably be open in the spring of 2008, and the City
Council will be invited to the opening ceremony. Glenn Stolar and Jeff Daniel reviewed the
work which is being done to address the increased demand for different levels of athletic fields in

City Council Work Session - May 29, 2007
Stolar stated trails continue to be a top priority of the commission, paying special attention to
missing links. The 2008 comprehensive plan update has begun with the commission paying
special attention to the Seminary Fen, Bluff Creek Golf Course, completing a full circle natural
trail around Lake Ann, and investigating the possibility of bringing town ball back to
Chanhassen. Todd Gerhardt suggested the commission meet with John Guy, a resident of
Chanhassen who spearheaded the funding campaign for the Minnetonka Stadium through
partnerships and donations. Paula Atkins informed the council that she is seeking volunteers for
a task force to investigate the formation of an Arts Council and Historic Preservation Committee.
Todd Hoffman explained that at the comprehensive plan open house, staff will present a map
showing existing and proposed trail connections.
ENVIRONMENTAL COMMISSION:
Ron Olson and two members of the Environmental Commission were present to encourage the
city to research the use of flex fuel and hybrid vehicles when purchasing city vehicles which will
help save money and help the planet in general. Councilman Litsey suggested that the
Environmental Commission play more of an advisory role to the City Council in the future than
just an educational role.
The work session was recessed at 6:55 p.m.. It was reconvened at 8:40 p.m..
DISCUSSION OF FUTURE STAFFING AND BENCHMARKING, POLICE SERVICES.
Sheriff Bud Olson, Commander Jeff Enevold and Sergeant Ross Gullickson were present from
the Carver County Sheriff's Department to present the report which outlines future staffing levels
for police service in Chanhassen. Todd Gerhardt reviewed factors used in the past to determine
policing levels. Commander Enevold reviewed policing factors such as response times to
emergencies, visibility in the community, and traffic enforcement. Community factors include
population, housing types (single family vs. multi family), number of local roads and types of
commercial property. Sgt. Ross Gullickson reported on juvenile and gang activity in
Chanhassen, Project Leadfoot and the use of the speed trailer in gathering data. Community
factors used to determine future need include the opening of Highway 312 in 2008, the opening
of the Chanhassen High School in 2009 and opening of the 2005 MUSA area in 2010.
Commander Enevold explained how the sheriff's department uses the "Average Sworn Law
Enforcement Officers per 1,000 Inhabitants" ratio of .8 for each 1,000 population in determining
staffing levels. Sgt. Ross Gullickson stated he would like to see 15 patrol deputies for
Chanhassen. Councilman Litsey asked about the addition of an investigator for Chanhassen,
which would lighten the load of patrol deputies. Sheriff Olson discussed districting of the
community to help eliminate response risks, increase response time and the level of service to
the community. Councilman Litsey asked for an explanation of how the county support is
factored into the formula. Todd Gerhardt asked for clarification of the 2010 patrol hours and
noted that the city will continue to monitor service and statistics over the next 3 years to make
sure the level of service is adequate. Councilman Litsey stated he felt the request was reasonable
based on the fact that the city is playing catch up with staffing. Councilwoman Ernst thanked
Commander Enevold for providing the benchmarking and comparisons to other similar
communities. Councilman Peterson stated the request was logical but asked that the city keep an

eye on the impact of future growth, i.e. Highway 312 and the Chanhassen High School. Mayor
Furlong thought the information was good, showing what fits for Chanhassen. He liked that
incremental growth was being used which allows for flexibility if needed and asked that city
staff move forward with implementing the sheriff department's recommendations into the budget
process. Sheriff Olson noted he was "very comfortable with this plan". Councilwoman Ernst
asked for an explanation of the number of police cars that sit at City Hall, and if there really is a
need for additional police officers. Councilman Peterson asked if the sheriff's department has
done an analysis of wheel time vs. office time for patrol deputies. Sheriff Olson stated the
department has lacked the technology in the past, but now has software available so will begin
tracking that type of information. Todd Gerhardt asked for clarification on when the unmarked
squad car would be back in service. Sheriff Olson explained his understanding was that the
council was looking for a report before bringing an unmarked vehicle back into service.
Councilwoman Ernst asked for clarification on the use of unmarked squad car. Sheriff Olson
explained the philosophy of how level of service is provided in the city. Mayor Furlong noted
that how the unmarked vehicle is used is his priority, in providing good public safety. He
thanked Todd Gerhardt, Laurie Hokkanen, Commander Enevold, Sgt. Ross Gullickson and
Sheriff Olson for their time and work in presenting this proposal.
Mayor Furlong adjourned the work session at 9:50 p.m..

PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Mayor Furlong: Thank you and good evening to everyone. To those in the council chambers as
well as those watching at home. We're glad that you joined us. On behalf of the City Council, it
looks like everybody had an enjoyable Memorial Day weekend and spent time with family and
also remembering our veterans that served. At this time I'd like to ask members of the council if
there's any modifications or changes to the agenda? If not, without objection we'll proceed with
the agenda as published.

f. Approval of Extension of Preliminary Plat, Liberty at Creekside.
All voted in favor and the motion carried unanimously with a vote of 4 to 0.
1(B). APPROVAL OF LODGING TAX.
Councilwoman Ernst: Mayor, I feel that this is a very significant issue and I, so I feel that all
City Council members should be present before voting on this.
Mayor Furlong: Okay.
Councilwoman Ernst: So I'd like to make a motion to table.
Mayor Furlong: Okay. Is there a second?
Councilman Peterson: I'd second that. Not for the same reason but. My second would be, and
basically I just, I wasn't, didn't have the opportunity to be at the last meeting it was discussed at
the work session so I would just like a little bit more opportunity to discuss it so I don't think
every council member needs to be here for that but I think we mixed a few budget meetings
without all council people but so I'm comfortable seconding the motion on that basis.
Mayor Furlong: In terms of, Councilman Peterson just so I understand. Your thoughts in terms
of spending some more time. How would you propose?
Councilman Peterson: I guess to spend my issue is just to talk to the Chamber a little bit more. I
did that earlier today. I just want to have really more dialogue with them to get a perspective of
what the money's going to be spent on so I could accomplish that myself. I know Mr. Litsey,
Councilman Litsey's already offered to attend that meeting so.
Councilman Litsey: Yeah, I think that's a reasonable thing is to postpone this for now so we can
have some more dialogue. So I'd support that too.
Mayor Furlong: Alright.
Todd Gerhardt: Mayor, council members, would you like this as a work session item? You
want to just address it on the side? You just can't have more than 2 council members attend.
Mayor Furlong: I guess, it sounds like it's not a big issue.
Councilman Peterson: No, I just need more time so.
Mayor Furlong: Councilman Litsey was at the work session. You're familiar with that. I say
let's do it with the two of them and depending on the nature of that and the information they
2
178
City Council Meeting - May 29, 2007
receive back from the Chamber, if it warrants another work session we can do that. But let's see
what the results of their discussion and inquiry is at this point.
Councilman Peterson: By chance if we can get everybody there, great.
Mayor Furlong: Okay. Alright, there's been a motion to table. It's been seconded.
Councilwoman Ernst moved, Councilman Peterson seconded to table the lodging tax. All
voted in favor and the motion carried unanimously with a vote of 4 to 0.
Todd Gerhardt: Mayor, I'd just like to extend thank you to the Chamber members that attended.
We'll be in contact with you.
VISITOR PRESENTATIONS:
Doug Swanson: I'm not sure what the mass exodus is all about. My name's Doug Swanson,
1780 Koehnen Circle West. I'm under the kind of condition that's a little muddy around my
house because they're doing the construction right now. I was here a couple months ago and I
talked to all our neighbors and I've had them sign, the only thing we were requesting about 2
months ago, year and a half ago was that we get the surmountable curb. Instead we're going to
get the 16 inch curb. I've talked to the guys who are actually doing the construction and their
engineering plans actually say no, we didn't get what we asked for. So I've gone around and the
only person I haven't, I don't know who to give this to, but the only person I have not talked to.
Or I should say I've talked to them all. The only one I really can't touch in person is Gary
Brown. He's up at his cabin, so I know he's very, he's been in Chanhassen a long time but he's
obviously at his cabin. He's the only one I did not get to sign that. There was one other
gentleman that did not sign but a majority of us did on Koehnen Circle West. The only thing we
were asking for is to, I mean if we're going to pop for some of this money, we would just like the
surmountable curb to be installed, at least in our dead end if you want to call it, or cul-de-sac.
The Pheasant Hill Addition is right next to us. Has the same style of curb, it was about 2 months
ago when the engineer was here and talking about this. He really couldn't say the price was any
difference. I do remember one of the council members, or council person made a motion to find
out what the actual price difference was, or if there was a price savings or what. I don't know
what became of that.
Mayor Furlong: Well I think I'll defer to City Engineer Mr. Oehme but I know that was a
question brought up before the project was approved and the city staff spent some time
contacting residents on this same issue so, Mr. Oehme?
Paul Oehme: Yeah, we did follow up with a neighborhood meeting after the bids were opened
and we did take bids on the alternate, surmountable curb and gutter issue that this gentleman
alludes to. You know at that time we did follow up with several property owners and at that time
we did not feel that there was an overwhelming support for the surmountable curb. We brought
back the pros and the cons each of those types of curbs and at that time we did not hear an
overwhelming support for either one so staff recommended going with the B618 high back curb.

179
City Council Meeting - May 29, 2007
Doug Swanson: Our whole addition, no one ever told us, involved being contacted, of all the
people, the 8 people that are living on that addition, or that dead end. We were not contacted so I
don't know if you skipped our corner. I know we live you know so far, we're only one lot away
from Hennepin/Carver County line and I actually do more of my accessing into the Minneapolis-
St. Paul area through Highway 7 so I don't usually come through here so I feel like I'm kind of
guessing up there. Like some other people in your little corners of Chanhassen but we were not
contacted for this opinion, and that's why I'm here.
Paul Oehme: Okay.
Mayor Furlong: I guess what I would suggest at this point Mr. Swanson, why don't you meet
with Mr. Oehme and talk to him. See what can be done, if anything. Find out the information.
Doug Swanson: Yeah, they were just barely my end down, more rock and everything else. The
waste water, where you want ground water hasn't even been installed yet. I mean it's not too late
and that's why I'm here.
Mayor Furlong: And I appreciate the time with us but obviously you should meet with him and
find out, with Mr. Oehme and find out what can be done and what the options are.
Doug Swanson: We've been bounced around to a couple people and stuff like that and
everybody says finally go to City Council…
Councilman Litsey: I guess curious as to one question here. Why the preference for that type of
curbing?
Doug Swanson: I mean I grew up in Minneapolis. There was actually another Swanson on there
that is not related to me. She has kids with some of these smaller cars. I mean I lived in
Humboldt Avenue in Minneapolis, over there by Lake Calhoun. I remember getting into regular
sized cars, everybody piles in the cars when the door was open. The doors, or the cars squat
down a little bit. Scraps the bottom of the door. Concrete anything. A lot of these cars are
coming out and they're smaller and smaller and there's smaller profile. You can actually have
more damage to bottoms of cars, especially with these kids starting to drive smaller cars. So
there is that aspect. There's a lot of people that would like to have relatives park in their yard
when they have a party or even just driving the garden tractor. If it goes off that 6 inch curb, you
could damage your garden tractor. So there's a lot of different aspects. We could sit here all
night and discuss them but I know you guys have got some better things to do so.
Councilman Litsey: I'm just curious because the other actually there's another name for is it V
curb. Is a V curb, is that what you were?
Paul Oehme: B. B, yep.
Councilman Litsey: B.

City Council Meeting - May 29, 2007
Doug Swanson: But there's actually a 6 inch long curb. I mean that's all I grew up with you
know and I moved up to Chanhassen not really to get away from a lot of things but I just like the
idea of even having the tar curb that we originally had when I first moved in 30 years ago. So I
built in '78 and it was very easy to build here and I'd like to stay another year but I don't know,
the curb and the actual road construction I guess to serve a lot of people in our area but you know
it's progress and we understand that. All we're asking for helping to pay for it is get what we
want.
Todd Gerhardt: Mayor, I think that was a good suggestion. Paul will be in contact with you and
we'll get a solution to this issue right away.
Doug Swanson: And I did not go down Cardinal Avenue. I did not go down Koehnen Circle
West. I went down where I actually live and people that live just west of me on the same cul-de-
sac so, thank you.
Mayor Furlong: Okay, thank you for coming this evening.
Todd Gerhardt: Well I was out in that area today so I know what you're going through. It's kind
of a war zone over there right now and appreciate you putting up with the construction. You
have no blacktop anywhere in that neighborhood and anybody trying to go down your street
today probably didn't get access to their garage this afternoon so, we'll be in contact.
Mayor Furlong: Okay, thank you. Anyone else under visitor presentations that would like to
address the council? On any matter. Okay, very good. Thank you. We'll move on with the next
items on our agenda.
LAW ENFORCEMENT/FIRE DEPARTMENT UPDATE.
Mayor Furlong: At this point I would invite Sergeant Ross Gullickson to come forward. Good
evening Sergeant.
Sgt. Ross Gullickson: Good evening Mr. Mayor. Members of council, city staff. Sheriff's
report and monthly statistics for the month of April, 2007. There were 94 criminal calls for
service last month consisting of 28 Part I crimes and 66 Part II crimes. Part I offenses were
broken down in the following. We did have 1 arson that was reported in April on Arboretum
Drive that turned out to be a trash pile that was not intentionally set on fire so when you see that
1 arson report, that was not an actual case of arson. We did have 1 aggravated assault reported
on Lake Drive East on the 16th April. The suspects and victims in this case were all Eden Prairie
residents. This particular incident stems from an earlier assault that occurred in the city of Eden
Prairie. Through the course of investigation the suspects were located and interviewed and
ultimately 1 person was charged with 2 counts of 2nd degree assault. Two counts of felony riot
and 2 counts of, and 1 person was charged with fifth degree assault. I want to be clear with the
council as to what felony riot means in this case as you may be thinking we had an all out melee
going on, and why didn't we hear about this before? Felony riot is applied in this case in that
there were more than 3 suspects involved in this assault and 1 person was carrying a makeshift
weapon at the time. Two victims did sustain minor injuries in the assault, so when you apply the
5
181
City Council Meeting - May 29, 2007
definition of riot to the offense of this particular case, a charge of riot is warranted and for the
council's knowledge, 2nd degree riot is defined as quote, when there are more, when 3 or more
persons assemble, disturb the peace, public by an intention act or threat of unlawful force of
violence to a person or property. And when each participant is armed with a dangerous weapon
or knows that any other participant is armed with a dangerous weapon, is guilty of riot. So to be
clear there was no actual riot in the traditional sense that we had rocks and bottles and stuff being
thrown. Believe if that would have been the case, you would have heard from me directly. We
also had 2 burglaries that were reported in April, both of which were to private residences.
Through further research I learned that these incidents were more of a suspicious incident type of
call and that no entry was gained to these residences and nothing was taken. But it did appear
that the doors may have been tampered with. The facts are inconclusive that there was an entry.
There were 22 theft reports in April, and 2 vehicle thefts, both of which turned out to be
unfounded. They were civil matters. Part II offenses increased slightly from March to April,
from 53 to 66 incidents being reported. A majority of these calls were related again to property
damage, disturbing the peace calls and we saw an increase in alcohol related traffic accidents
and/or arrests. There were 938 non-criminal calls for service which brings us in April to 1,032
calls for service handled in Chanhassen in the month of April. Chanhassen deputies also
conducted 322 traffic and issued 191 citations city wide. Finally Mr. Mayor and members of the
council, as you are aware this is my last monthly report to you as the Chanhassen liaison
Sergeant. My duties with the sheriff's office will conclude this Friday as I move on to a new
position with the Three Rivers Park Police. I wanted to extend my best wishes to you as the
council and also to city staff who I've worked with cooperatively over the last 11 months. They
are truly a talented group of people who I've learned a great deal from and I will take those
lessons with me as I assume my new duties. Mr. Mayor, members of the council, that will
conclude my monthly sheriff's report on statistics. I would be happy to entertain any comments,
questions or concerns that you have of me as a council.
Mayor Furlong: Very good, for the few days left. Before you move on to that, I know there may
be some questions of the council as well but on behalf of the council and all the citizens and
businesses of Chanhassen, we appreciate your service over these last many months. You've been
in the position a relatively short time but during that time you've raised the bar and identified
some things that will allow us to do some things more than what we've been doing in the past
with regard to public safety and crime prevention especially and we appreciate that for your
service.
Sgt. Ross Gullickson: Thank you Mr. Mayor.
Mayor Furlong: Questions of the sergeant at this point?
Councilman Litsey: Well I'd just like to echo those comments. Appreciate your service to the
community and wish you well as you move on to a new opportunity so. I did have a question in
regards to citations, which I presume are mostly traffic related, is that correct?
Sgt. Ross Gullickson: Predominantly correct.
6
182
City Council Meeting - May 29, 2007
Councilman Litsey: Okay. I noticed that hear to date in 2007 there was 874 and in comparison
to 2006 there was 1,416. A difference of 542 which is a reduction close to 40%. I also took a
look, because sometimes that can correlate to your traffic accident statistics as well. I looked at
injury accidents that occurred during those same timeframes and noticed that those were up
about 40% as well and I was wondering what could account for that rather large difference
between this year and last year during the same time period.
Sgt. Ross Gullickson: Well Councilman Litsey there either could be a number of things that
attribute to that. There could, without actually looking at each and every citation that was issued
in the same period last year I would venture to say that part of those would be snowbird
violations. During the same time period last year we also had a number of people in field
training and a majority of their monitored or evaluated field activity is heavily weighed on
traffic, so I know a lot of traffic stops were initiated in those type of context as well. Absent of
looking at all the citations I guess I'd have to do a little bit more research and get back to you on
that. Or my predecessor would maybe do that for you. But there might be a number of different
explanations as to why the difference in traffic citation numbers.
Councilman Litsey: This is one you get to pass along so.
Sgt. Ross Gullickson: That's right.
Councilman Litsey: And I guess what I was looking at a little bit is, last year in the same time
period there was an unmarked traffic enforcement unit being used and my understanding is
during this time period this year there's not. There's a fully marked squad. I was wondering how
that might factor into that and what plans there are to put that unmarked traffic car back.
Sgt. Ross Gullickson: At the same time period last year, January, February, March, if I recall
correctly, the unmarked traffic unit did have a Chevy Lumina assigned to it.
Councilman Litsey: Yes.
Sgt. Ross Gullickson: And that changed throughout the course of time. That might have
something to do with it as well. It's well known that unmarked traffic units do have a higher
likelihood of running into traffic violations, but looking at the numbers I don't think that alone
would warrant the difference that we see, or that we are seeing currently.
Councilman Litsey: Okay. Can you briefly speak to the plans to bring that unmarked, I know
the Dodge Charger controversy and I've already stated my position very clear on that. I thought
that was unwarranted but what are the plans now to bring back an unmarked vehicle? My
understanding was once the new fleet comes in.
Sgt. Ross Gullickson: Once the new fleet comes in there will be an unmarked vehicle. Currently
that's scheduled to come back, it will be a Crown Victoria. Unmarked Crown Victoria that will
be assigned to Chanhassen.
Councilman Litsey: Okay. I'll stop there. Thank you.
7
183
City Council Meeting - May 29, 2007
Mayor Furlong: Any other questions? If not, again thank you. Appreciate your service. Good
luck.
Sgt. Ross Gullickson: Mr. Mayor, I believe Sheriff Olson is here. I don't know if he wanted to
say a few words or.
Mayor Furlong: Sheriff, good evening.
Sheriff Bud Olson: Good evening Mayor and Council. Ross, where you going? I don't think
you're done are you? You know we've had quite a privilege here in the county mayor and
council. Just 3 years ago I got to hire this wonderful young man and I never thought in the world
in a 3 year period of time we'd put him on as a deputy and move him into a contract policing and
go through a promotional process and end up, he's one of the top candidates and he'd take on a
challenge of one of my largest contracts that we have in the county and do such a stellar job so
you know I really do believe before we let him go we should give him a round of applause for
really the wonderful job he has done for the city and for us.
Sgt. Ross Gullickson: Now I'm done.
Sheriff Bud Olson: If I might address Councilman Litsey's issue regarding the traffic and the
changes. We're reviewing a report that Ross has written relative to the traffic safety program in
the city and we're looking at some of these comparisons and we will bring a report back to the
council and we will talk about how you want to proceed forward. I am not opposed to bringing
an unmarked back in the community if we feel that's an appropriate model that we want to run
with. I know Ross was talking some staffing concerns that we had during that time and the
traffic safety deputy that we have, had to roll into regular duties for a period of time Councilman
Litsey and had to run just regular shifts for us and that really cut back on his time that he spent
dedicated to this so we'll put a report to you, a summary report and we'll talk about the next steps
we take here so I thank you for the opportunity to allow Ross to work in your community. I
think he's done a marvelous job. For those that don't know, he also finished his masters degree
while he was serving here and I think all of that in combination will serve him well as he moves
to his next great challenge as the number 2 over there in Three Rivers Park District so thank you
very much.
Mayor Furlong: Before you leave Sheriff, can you explain a little bit about the process you'll go
through in terms of identifying his replacement? Just working with Mr. Gerhardt and.
Sheriff Bud Olson: Absolutely. One thing that I feel so strongly about is two things that
communities look for in supplying their local service and that's local control and local identity
and as you know we've done a lot of study about this. We've looked not only locally, regionally
but nationally and how best to do this. One of the things that we've always built into our work
plans in the contract communities is the community has a say, or at least has an opinion to offer
up as we assign people to these different communities. Currently we're going through a process
of identifying folks in the office that would like to take on the challenge of this wonderful
program here and this community liaison sergeant and so we have some options. We're
8
184
City Council Meeting - May 29, 2007
interviewing with the City Manager, Todd right now and I think that he and I will make a
recommendation to you and we'll move ahead on that process, so we're in that process now.
Mayor Furlong: Very good. Thank you.
Sheriff Bud Olson: You bet.
Councilman Litsey: Can I ask you one question? Has there been any thought given to making
that position a lieutenant rather than a sergeant given the number of officers under that person's
span of control. Little unusual to have kind of a supervisory position as a sergeant for that kind
of detail. I know it comes down to cost a little bit but seems to me that model would be more
conducive to a lieutenant's position.
Sheriff Bud Olson: Mayor and council and Councilman Litsey, I think as we look forward I
think that's exactly what our recommendation will look like. We've already had some general
conversations about the future and I think later in our work session that's probably a good
opportunity to really discuss this is you know at what pace do we throw that out and at what pace
do we offer it at a lieutenant's rank versus a sergeant's rank. I'm open to that and I think that's a
good discussion to have.
Councilman Litsey: Thanks.
Sheriff Bud Olson: You bet.
Mayor Furlong: Thank you.
Sheriff Bud Olson: Thank you.
Mayor Furlong: Fire Chief Greg Geske is here this evening too. Good evening Chief.
Chief Greg Geske: Good evening. It's been pretty slow lately. We did have a structure fire
since our last council update and I just wanted to take a moment to thank Excelsior and Victoria
Fire Department. It was a fire on Hummingbird Road and we had again Excelsior and Victoria
come for mutual aid. It was in the 80's in the high temperatures and humidities that night and
sure put a lot of strain on our own fire fighters. We were somewhat limited in the people
response that we had and we also had Eden Prairie stand by our station. We had a couple small
injuries that night, a sprain, a facial burn and some heat exhaustion but again I want to thank the
departments that responded to mutual aid that night. We do have summer plans that we're
gearing up for, including our fire fighters participating in the safety camp, July 4th pretty well
involved in and hoping to have our new engine for the parade but it's touch and go whether it
will be filled by that time, and we also participate in National Night Out in August so we're
putting up sign up sheets for that stuff going on so that's about all I had tonight.
Mayor Furlong: Okay, thank you. Any questions for the Chief?
Councilman Litsey: So all those injuries were super, or less…
9
185
City Council Meeting - May 29, 2007
Chief Greg Geske: Somewhat minor, yeah.
Councilman Litsey: No one was seriously hurt.
Chief Greg Geske: The sprain was checked out later. We did have the facial burn was some
second degree burns to the face and that went to the hospital and checked out after that and the
heat exhaustion was checked out.
Councilman Litsey: I think it's a good opportunity to show you know the good job that you do
and how you go out there and put yourself at risk to help others and very much appreciate the
sacrifices that you and your department make to protect ourselves so thank you.
Chief Greg Geske: You bet.
Mayor Furlong: Quick question because the question's come up to me. Recreational fires.
We're getting into the season a little bit more. Can you explain what's allowed in terms of size
and also from a fuel standpoint.
Chief Greg Geske: If you go on the web site, it is spelled out in there. Basically it's a 3 by 3.
You can only burn you know wood that you cut down. Logs and such. We can't burn refuse.
Chairs that have wood in them do no. If people want to burn weeds and stuff, you can't do that.
It's basically just wood, recreational type fires contained in a 3 by 3 but there is a description
also. You want to refrain when winds are high of course and such like that but there is a
description in the city web site.
Mayor Furlong: Okay, thank you. Any other questions or comments for the Chief? Very good,
thank you.
PUBLIC HEARING: NATIONAL POLLUTION DISCHARGE ELIMINATION
SYSTEM (NPDES) PUBLIC HEARING AND ANNUAL REPORT.
Public Present:
Name Address
Linda Landsman 7329 Frontier Trail
Lori Haak: Mayor Furlong, council members. As you're aware, the City of Chanhassen is
subject to the requirements of the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency, the National Pollution
Discharge Elimination System Phase II, Municipal Separate Storm Sewer, or MS4 permit. The
permit was issued in 2002 and has been amended several times since then so the city has
consequently updated it's application for the permit. The permit that we're under currently is our
2003 application, although we have since then submitted an additional application as a result of
some changes that were made by the Pollution Control Agency. So although we are currently
reporting on this permit and it's requirements, there's actually another one kind of sitting in limbo
10
186
City Council Meeting - May 29, 2007
if you will right now. And generally speaking the city is required to address 6 different areas of
pollution control, including public education and outreach, public involvement and participation,
illicit discharge detection and elimination which is just prohibiting and trying to detect
discharges into the storm sewer system that are not storm water, so if a cement, or concrete
company is washing out it's truck into storm drains, that would be an example of illicit discharge.
Also construction site runoff control. Working with construction site supervisors. Post
construction runoff control, which would be pond maintenance and inspection. And then
pollution prevention and good housekeeping which is training our own employees, our City
Council, our Planning Commission and especially our public works and parks maintenance folks
on ways that we can be better stewards of our storm water. So annually the permit requires us to
hold a public meeting, receive public comment on the status of our program and then submit an
annual report to that end. So I just wanted to real briefly give you an updated list of the things
that we've been working on in 2006, and many of these were included in your council packets.
And basically all of these are related to storm water and improving the storm water quality so the
5,213 visits to the Carver County Environmental Center actually are related to storm water
because presumably people wouldn't be dumping those things down storm drains. Whether it's
leaves or solvents or other things of that nature. We've estimated we recovered about 3,500 tons
of debris through our street sweeping efforts which is a measurable. We have conducted 64
documented construction site inspections. Our sites within Chanhassen and we've also increased
by the number of individual home sites that we've inspected. Some of the other things that we've
worked on are increasing the number of Chanhassen Connection articles that appear. The
amount of information that's available on the city's natural resources web page and I always like
to mention our local boy scout troop recycled 219 Christmas trees in January of this year, so that
was, that keeps those out of our wetlands and ponds and lakes actually. And then we had in
2006 volunteers cleaning 6 parks as part of the city's Arbor Day celebration, and I think this year
we actually had a few more groups than that out so those are the types of things that we're
working on as part of this permit. Some additional things, I always like to take this opportunity
to talk a little bit more about some other storm water things. We did construct 4 rain gardens at
Lake Ann Park, and we're in the process of getting those vegetated. We worked with the
watershed district to reconstruct 5 storm water ponds in Lake Riley and Rice Marsh Lake. We
worked with Plowshares Development in their Stonefield neighborhood to construct and expand
3 storm water ponds, and we worked on a couple of drainage issues. In addition as the council
saw a few months ago we adopted some slow/no wake ordinances on Lake Susan and Lotus
Lake. And then the big project would be the Second Generation Surface Water Management
Plan which will really prepare us for storm water in the future, and then the code updates that the
council has begun to adopt in response to those plan recommendations. Then just real briefly
looking forward, in 2007 and 2008 we anticipate some additional ordinance updates. We
actually have mostly completed the enlarging of the storm water pond in Curry Farms Park. As
part of the street project that was discussed earlier, we are retrofitting the Koehnen and Yosemite
area with curb and gutter, as well as storm sewer and storm water ponds. As well as another
street improvement project, Dogwood Road will also receive some storm water treatment. And
then there's several other projects including the rain gardens and some lakescaping measures.
And then we will be working with homeowners around Lake Susan and Lotus Lake is what
we've identified thus far to improve some storm water situations in those areas as well. So with
that staff is requesting the City Council receive public comment on the annual report and
11
187
City Council Meeting - May 29, 2007
approve the annual report for the Mayor's signature and submittal to the Minnesota Pollution
Control Agency. With that I'd be happy to take any questions.
Mayor Furlong: Thank you. Any questions for Ms. Haak?

Kate Aanenson: Thank you Mayor and members of the City Council. This item appeared before
the Planning Commission at a public hearing on May 15th. There was no comments on the
12
188
City Council Meeting - May 29, 2007
project itself and the Planning Commission did recommend approval of the project. There's
actually four items for your consideration tonight. One being the subdivision. The second being
a conditional use for development within the Bluff Creek corridor. A site plan review and a
variance to the window requirement on plan to the north. The subject site located in an industrial
park, Arboretum Business Park. There's one lot that…preserve. This lot will be split into 2 lots.
The storm water pond which was previously put in place with the original subdivision itself, is
existing and there's a wetland on the lot to the north. This is the middle lot of the subdivision so
part of the project is… The project itself will be 51,000 square foot office manufacturing
building…and there will be a future development on the 16,000 as a second phase… With this
we get the completion of a loop trail continuation around what will be a very nice trail along that
park, which will be a nice amenity not only for the people in that park but the residential on the
other side. A very nice continuation… The architecture of the building…there is a buffer on the
Bluff Creek overlay district that kind of separates the traffic coming off of Century Boulevard
between the truck traffic and the resident car traffic. So this drive right in here, we've asked
them to remove that…narrow that where the cars have to get out of the primary zone itself. The
buffer of the primary zone. They're not in the primary zone. It's the buffer, so there is a noticed
variance for that. And there is the conditions on, or the mitigation for the variance and the
rationale with the Findings of Fact…as part of the mitigation again for that encroachment into
the buffer…requirements for the landscaping itself. So with that, the conditions of approval are
listed on page 16…staff report. We are recommending approval and the Findings of Fact are
attached in the staff report and I'd be happy to answer any questions that you have.
Mayor Furlong: Thank you. Questions for staff.
Councilman Litsey: I just had a question about the variance being asked for. Is it a foregone
conclusion that they're going to need that or is that just kind of a safeguard?
Kate Aanenson: It's a safeguard. We're working to see if we can pull that driveway up. It's a
little bit wider than it needs to be. That's not for the truck traffic so we believe that can be met
and…
Councilman Litsey: Okay. So the goal is to preserve that if you can?
Kate Aanenson: Correct.
Councilman Litsey: Will they have to come back to this body if they do?
Kate Aanenson: Well we noticed it with a variance…encroachment into that buffer zone and
that…
Councilman Litsey: It sounds like you're on top of it but I'd just ask that you do everything you
can to preserve that.
Kate Aanenson: Yep, absolutely.
13
189
City Council Meeting - May 29, 2007
Councilman Litsey: …utilize that variance but if there's just going to be a small encroachment
then I don't have a problem with that. Thank you.
Mayor Furlong: Are the conditions in tonight's report allow us to do that if we grant the, pass the
variance and there are a couple there I think. There's one for the windows too but.
Kate Aanenson: Correct.
Mayor Furlong: But on that one, can you put that back up please Nann? Is it just the part that
Bluff Creek, the variance within the setback, is that correct?
Kate Aanenson: Yes.
Mayor Furlong: Are we going into the primary zone?
Kate Aanenson: No.
Mayor Furlong: So this is a secondary zone or the setback from the primary?
Kate Aanenson: The setback from the primary zone.
Mayor Furlong: Okay. So is it just that row of parking there that.
Kate Aanenson: Right in here, correct.
Mayor Furlong: Okay. So if what we approve tonight, will that still give you the authority to be
able to move that in if you can and work with them?
Kate Aanenson: Yes.
Mayor Furlong: Okay. Alright.
Kate Aanenson: And then the other one was for the windows. There is a significant change in
grade and the reason it was granted for the fenestration look which we talked about in the
amendment, because of the change in topography, they can't get that big of a, a very big window
in there and so the fact, they could put a window in there but there's, the change in the grade
makes it impossible. So the Planning Commission felt like that the hardship…the slope and the
topography was the rationale…
Mayor Furlong: How does the percentage here compare with the buildings in the rest of the
area? What's the amount of windows in the percent of total? They're requesting an 18%
variance so that tells me there's 32% of window coverage? Is that the way it works coming off
of 50%?
Kate Aanenson: Yes.
14
190
City Council Meeting - May 29, 2007
Mayor Furlong: I'm on page 11 of your staff report. Top paragraph.
Kate Aanenson: Right, and again this is a different standard that the other buildings in that park
were held to.
Mayor Furlong: And what I'm guessing is this is a more stringent standard, is that correct?
Kate Aanenson: That's correct. Correct.
Mayor Furlong: Off hand, do you know what the other amount? The 32%, is that still going to
exceed what most, what the other buildings have in that area?
Kate Aanenson: Yeah. At least be comparable to what's out there.
Mayor Furlong: Comparable or more, okay.
Kate Aanenson: And again that was some of the rationale for the Planning Commission and
that's basically again, the project…limits the ability to put those windows in so they've got, so
the hardship was not self created… And just to go back to that point about the fenestration, the
Planning Commission…talking about how they wanted to interpret that so you have not seen that
amendment yet. It's not part of the Chapter 20 coming before us tonight because the Planning
Commission's still working on that issue.
Mayor Furlong: That's good because that was something we talked about at the…
Kate Aanenson: Yeah, they want some additional information so that code amendment has not
been forwarded to you.
Mayor Furlong: Very good. Any other questions for staff? Okay, then the applicant's here this
evening. Is there anything you'd like to share with the council this evening? No? Okay. Any
questions for the applicant from council? No? Okay. Public hearing occurred at the Planning
Commission. I don't know if there's any desire for any comment by members of the public. Any
comments? Okay. Bring it back to council for discussion then. Any thoughts or discussion? If
not, is there a motion?
Councilman Peterson: Have we got 3 motions?
Mayor Furlong: 3 or 4?
Councilman Peterson: I'd move that the City Council approves subdivision for two lots and one
outlot, Arboretum Business Park, conditions, subject to plans by Schoell & Madsen, April 16th,
subject to conditions 1 through 23.
Mayor Furlong: You want to take them all as one? Can we do them all as one?
Councilman Peterson: If I can page down there fast.
15
191
City Council Meeting - May 29, 2007
Roger Knutson: Just to make it clear, that's preliminary and final plat I believe.
Councilman Peterson: That's correct. Also would recommend that the City Council approve the
Conditional Use Permit subject to conditions 1 and 2. And also recommend that the council
approve the site plan for the 51,800 square foot building with the variance permit as indicated
subject to the following conditions 1 through 25, and subject to Findings of Fact as submitted by
staff.
Mayor Furlong: Thank you. Is there a second?
Councilwoman Ernst: Second.
Mayor Furlong: Made and seconded. Any discussion on the motion?

Kate Aanenson: Thank you Mayor, members of the council. This item too was held on May
15th for a public hearing. The Planning Commission did vote 6-0 for approval of this project and
there were no issues raised at the meeting, although we did receive a letter from one of the
21
197
City Council Meeting - May 29, 2007
residents and Bob Generous in presenting his report to the Planning Commission went through
the letter…specifically one of the main concerns was lighting…landscaping. Again this site is
part of the business park. Located off of Galpin Boulevard. You've approved other projects in
this park, most recently the…which would be a 48,000 square foot office/warehouse and there
was a variance with it for the logo in the building front. As I mentioned the site itself it's pretty
close to what was originally approved and it shows different elevations on the project itself. As
you recall on the neighboring lot…outlot preserving the trees. As staff we recommended…
shows the preserved area just to the west. There was some questions regarding tree removal in
that area. There is a retaining wall along this side so it builds up into…so some of those, a
minimal amount of trees will be removed just along the edge. There will also be a wing wall that
provides a buffer. This roof itself is 12 feet high…200 feet past the wetland…minimal
perspective as far as the visual impact on that building itself… On the project itself, if we can
show this. This is proof of parking. It's not, we didn't put it in right away. If additional parking
is needed, they have provided that…where we try to preserve, create more green space. If it's
deemed that we need to put additional parking in, it is shown…but based on how the applicant
sees… The building itself, the architecture…with the logo on it, that was a request that the
Planning Commission did support. Having the logo. The landscaping exceeds, significantly
exceeds the requirement on the site itself. ...as I mentioned earlier, there is a retaining wall… so
again there is a variance request for the logo size and the smaller Outset itself will be smaller.
They're not exceeding the overall sign area, but what they wanted…the Planning Commission
felt that since they didn't exceed the sign area, they feel comfortable with that logo. It's not in a
highly traveled area. You'd have to come back in there to actually…street frontage. So with that
they did support the variance and the Findings of Fact are also in your staff report. So with that,
we are recommending approval with the conditions in the staff report and the Findings of Fact.
I'd be happy to answer any questions that you have.
Mayor Furlong: Thank you. Questions for staff? Ms. Aanenson, with regards to the retaining
wall and the extension of the berm, if I saw it correctly, it's going into, the berm is being
extended into Outlot C? But it's being extended into an area that's not, there are significant trees,
is that correct?
Kate Aanenson: This is the retaining wall right here, and there is some trees down through here.
In addition there will be a wing wall…to create a little bit better buffer which… Actually at the
end of the berm itself, there is a better buffer…
Mayor Furlong: Okay. With regards to the sign logo variance, I saw a condition added that also
limited the size. The ordinance as I understand limits the logo as a percentage of the sign?
Kate Aanenson: Correct.
Mayor Furlong: So this is basically allowing them to have the logo be the sign?
Kate Aanenson: Correct, and that was...variance that you can't exceed that total area…
22
198
City Council Meeting - May 29, 2007
Mayor Furlong: Have we had other instances in the city where we've dealt with logos versus
signs? And I guess my question is, is there a precedence being set here or is this something that
we worked with and we try to accommodate it where we can?
Kate Aanenson: Well I think the other factor that went into it, it's not in a commercial district
where it's highly visible and that tends to be where we have the biggest request for that. Where
the logo is really the identifying and we really encourage…but because this isn’t in a high traffic
area, you have to go back, it's in the back lot so it's really just identifies, if you're looking for that
building…it's a destination.
Mayor Furlong: Okay. You don't see this as creating any precedent?
Kate Aanenson: A similar…in an industrial park in a similar situation, that would be one
rationale…
Mayor Furlong: The factors here are not unique, is that your point?
Kate Aanenson: Correct.
Mayor Furlong: For this site and this type of zoning. Thank you. Any other questions for staff?
If not, the applicant's here. Good evening. Anything you'd like to address to the council? Okay.
Any questions for the applicant? No? Again a public hearing took place at the Planning
Commission. I don't know if there have been any significant changes between the Planning
Commission and council. Are there any desire for members of the public to comment on this?
No? Okay. Bring it back to council then for discussion. Oh! No, that's fine.
Tom Radermacher: My name's Tom Radermacher. My wife and I, JoEllen live at 2479 Bridle
Creek Trail. We're just directly north of the development. I just had a question on that 170 foot
retaining wall. I guess I'm not sure where that wall is. Is that right on the border of the outlot or
is that north?
Kate Aanenson: It's in the right-of-way.
Tom Radermacher: There's some stakes out there now that say, show not the property line but
the outlot line.
Kate Aanenson: This is the edge of the property. This is the edge of the wetland. Way up in
here.
Tom Radermacher: Yeah, well I guess there's a note in here on page 9 that the developer's
engineer must submit a sketch verifying construction of this retaining wall will not compromise
the tree preservation, and there's a lot of oaks. They said 12 trees. I guess that's why I'm
wondering where the line is because there's well over 12 trees within that border. And that's
where the outlot is and I think there's like a dozen 100 year oaks that will have, be compromised.
I'm wondering if that engineer's drawing was done and.
23
199
City Council Meeting - May 29, 2007
Kate Aanenson: That will be one of the conditions that will have to be…project before they
can…submit to engineering a detail of how they're going to hold the wall back. If it's over 4 feet
it has to be engineered…
Tom Radermacher: Do you know how many feet it is from the outlot?
Kate Aanenson: I'd have to ask the developer…outlot.
Tom Radermacher: Yeah, I know it's on the outlot but where, how many feet because I've seen
the stakes and I'm wondering if that's where the wall's going to be…
Kate Aanenson: …stakes offset…but we'll verify that. According to this it's not on the property
line.
Tom Radermacher: No. Well I guess my point is that there's, if it's where the stake is, there's
well over the 12 trees that they had in the plans. It's got to be in the 20 to 30 range. And like I
say, some of those, several of those are oak trees. 100 year oak trees. And I just want to verify
it's on the, if the retaining wall's on the line or if it's, where it is exactly.
Kate Aanenson: I'd be happy to…and we'll verify that.
Tom Radermacher: Okay. I'd just like to make it a condition that that be done and we determine
that it's within the 10 feet from the wall so that that is indeed only 12 trees that are being taken
down.
Kate Aanenson: …field verify that…
Mayor Furlong: Okay, thank you.
Dan Luna: Good evening. My name is Dan Luna and I.
Mayor Furlong: Why don't you just stand back a little bit so the, it will pick you up standing up
straight. Thank you.
Dan Luna: I live at 2483 Bridle Creek Trail and my concern is how soon construction can begin
on the berm. And what assurance do we have that the berm may be built this summer because
my wife and I and my family, we've looked at this construction zone, storage area back there for
the better part of a year and a half and now that there's a proposed building going in, I'd really
like to see some completion done back there in terms of aestheticness.
Kate Aanenson: Typically during excavation, the berm would go up pretty much simultaneously
with the building. The last thing to go in would be the landscaping…what they excavate they'll
be using for the berm itself, so that should happen simultaneously… but the berm should go up
simultaneously with the building.
Dan Luna: So no guarantees that the landscaping would be done this year at all?
24
200
City Council Meeting - May 29, 2007
Kate Aanenson: In order to get that, typically the city takes a letter of credit to ensure that that
gets done. They have to make sure that they get the rest of the building done and…those are the
last things to go in. The first thing they do is…
Dan Luna: When you say sprinkling system, am I, is it a safe assumption to say that the berm is
irrigated?
Kate Aanenson: Typically we've done that but…
Dan Luna: Alright. Thank you.
Mayor Furlong: Okay, thank you.
Councilman Litsey: Could those concerns be addressed now?
Dan Luna: Do you want me to stay in case there's another concern?
Brian Houwman: I'll answer the two. I'm Brian Houwman. I'm the architect. The stakes that
they see out there are the property line so the retaining wall will be back from that. It's
approximately between 10 and, 6 to 10 feet depending on the way you have to work those trees
that they're concerned with. That is the goal. As far as putting in the grading, that takes place
right away so we will be digging out the footings. We will be creating the berm. The berm will
be to the side. The planting on it, we certainly want to try to get it done this fall so as soon as we
can get started, that timeframe will happen.
Mayor Furlong: Alright, thank you.
Councilman Litsey: Thanks.
JoEllen Radermacher: Mayor Furlong, council members. My name's JoEllen Radermacher. I
live at 2479 Bridle Creek Trail and the comments that I would like to make tonight is regarding a
previous issue we discussed at the planning committee regarding hours of operation. I'd like to
expand on that a little bit. Our request for that is, mostly what we would, I'd like to make
reference to the permitted use section of the original PUD and it defines the light industrial and it
includes language, there shall be negligible impact upon the surrounding environment by noise,
vibration, smoke, dust or pollutants. And our main concern and why we even brought this up for
our neighborhood is regarding external operations of any tenant and by these external operations
we're referring mostly like vehicles. Like trucks that are left running and large doors opening
and closing after business hours, particularly at night is what we're concerned about. So our
request is that we would appreciate acknowledgement that this would not be allowed based on
the terms of the PUD and the definition of light industrial. Thank you.
Mayor Furlong: Thank you.
25
201
City Council Meeting - May 29, 2007
Kate Aanenson: …interpreted light industrial on that…metal fabrication, composite…work
outside. Any outdoor activity. This is intended to be indoor. Typically we don't regulate
service, delivery times. Certainly if there's an excess of noise, then…but as part of the normal
operations typically it's all inside…
Mayor Furlong: Did we discuss hours of operations when we were considering the PUD?
Kate Aanenson: No. I think what she's reading is the light industrial…as opposed to heavy
industrial…and I know we've had concerns with the metal fabrication next door in Chaska. With
sometimes start skid loading…outside. Bringing the metal indoors and that can… For the most
part the noise you're going to have is…backing up of a truck with the door.
Mayor Furlong: Okay.
Councilwoman Ernst: So what kind of hours would that be Kate? I mean would that be during.
Kate Aanenson: …as we have with any other business so as far as, a lot of businesses do… I'm
not sure, you can ask the applicant what they believe most of their… For example General Mills
is 24-7. Pretty much…
Brian Houwman: Yeah, we're a regular shop so it will be just daytime hours. Part of the
problem you may run into is that if an over the road rig makes a delivery and if they show up
early, well you can't…truck drivers are running their loads and then if they have to sit there and
idle until people show up.
Councilman Litsey: Can you show on the drawing where most of those deliveries will be made
and is that factor into that at all?
Kate Aanenson: I hope so. This the berm. The 12 foot berm would be here. Where the
deliveries would be on this site here. We've got a couple hundred feet between here and the
houses that are.
Councilman Litsey: So that berm should help protect.
Kate Aanenson: Sure…but we've worked hard to try to reduce the light spillover and all that.
We've located all the lights on this side of the building.
Councilman Litsey: And the planting should help.
Kate Aanenson: Right, and that's what I said when you get to the planting part, that's where you
want to put it, where you get the most effective mitigation for light and noise and those sort of
things. I just don't want to mislead anybody…sometimes it happens where truckers can't get to
the site on time. They get there late or they get there early.
Councilman Litsey: And then they leave their truck idling?
26
202
City Council Meeting - May 29, 2007
Kate Aanenson: Well unless sometimes…you can work with. We've had good relations with…
It's not very often that…and how they manage their operations…
Mayor Furlong: To the extent that there is something that rises to a level of a nuisance, we
certainly have ordinances in place already to address those. Okay. Thank you. Anyone else
from the public who would like to make any comments on this? Alright. Good, bring it back to
council for thoughts and discussion. Consideration of a motion.
Councilman Litsey: Well I just hope that every consideration is given to building up that berm
and getting those plantings in this year if at all possible. I think do what we can in terms of the
noise but, help somewhat with that but do our best, or the developer do their best to buffer that.
Otherwise the rest seems reasonable to me.
Mayor Furlong: Okay, thank you. Other comments, thoughts?
Councilman Peterson: No, it's a good project. I'd recommend approval of the site plan for the
48,000 square foot office building with the variance for the 12.9 square foot logo above the main
entry. Making it subject to the Findings of Fact and also subject to reiterating obviously the goal
is to get it done. I think that's everybody goal probably to get it done this year so.
Mayor Furlong: Thank you. Is there a second?
Councilwoman Ernst: Second.
Mayor Furlong: Made and seconded and I guess one comment I'll make too. I'm glad that staff
will be out there on site with regard to the location of that wall and making sure that that's put in
a place that's, eliminates ideally any tree loss on Outlot C. There was a lot of effort put into
preserving those trees at the beginning. I know you did it, most of it and so there's not a desire to
see that go away. Thank you. There's a motion made and seconded. Any other discussion on
the motion?
Councilman Peterson moved, Councilwoman Ernst seconded that the City Council
approves Site Plan for a 48,042 square-foot, one-story office warehouse building with a

City Council Meeting - May 29, 2007
1(c). APPROVAL OF ORDINANCE AMENDMENTS TO CHAPTER 20, ZONING,
CHANHASSEN CITY CODE.
Mayor Furlong: Maybe start quickly with a staff report summary on this.
Kate Aanenson: On all the changes?
Mayor Furlong: Let's start with an executive summary and then we'll see where we go from
there.
Kate Aanenson: Sure. Periodically we make changes to the zoning…things that are brought to
our attention from internal. From external. The first one is to…Bluff Creek Boulevard which is
a new street and has been added… The other one is a code change regarding liquor licenses and
it got struck in one section and not another section so this change… Oh sorry. A malt liquor
license is allowed with the applicant applies and so while we did put it in another section, it
needed to also be put into this section. So again that's kind of just the incorporation part of itself.
And then there was some citations that were wrong regarding the landscaping, or excuse me, off
street parking. So those are just each district, again a wrong citation that was given so kind of
just a Scribner's clarification. And then accessory structures was a discussion ongoing as we
become more urbanized that we have folks that choose to put in significantly large outdoor
storage structures that tend to be things other than just for storage. So it's becoming a nuisance
problem of people running businesses out of those, so we're looking at, as we become more
urbanized, we felt it was time to really kind of address that and limit those square footage. Now
if you're agricultural, certainly you're exempt from that but this is people that are kind of on the
fringe of a larger lot or a hobby farm that sometimes buy those thinking that they can run a
business out of those and so this would hopefully reduce that. Another note that we found is that
we don't specifically prohibit barbed wire fencing but we don't prohibit electric fences so we
wanted to be clear on that so that was another one that was changed. And the façade issue that's
in here, is all crossed out because the Planning Commission wanted to spend some more time
going through that so you'll probably be seeing that in another iteration of some code
amendments. And then the last one was the clarification of again something that got eliminated
from the H2 district and for some reason, again another thing that was eliminated when we
updated. We did a major code update in 2004 but for some reason this was eliminated and just to
go through the brief history of that. We adopted the Highway 5 corridor study. As a part of the
Highway 5 corridor study, this was back in '94 when we actually recommended some design
standards for the down, for the whole corridor. In place already was a major part of the
downtown was already had buildings on it so there were two things we wanted to accomplish.
One was architectural design, which we hadn't really addressed before city, the entire city.
Difference design standards. And the second one was to introduce different design standards and
orientation along the corridor itself. For example that's how we got the façade and the, from the
Arboretum Business Park that you just saw on one of it's projects tonight. That's where that
transparency and orientation came into place when you were facing the Highway 5 corridor.
And because the central business district was pretty much built up, it wouldn't meet those
standards so we built two different zoning districts. And that was actually articulated in the H1
and H2 zoning districts. And can you just zoom in on this… and then the other district on that
property. This map is dated 2002 and the Highway 1, Highway 2 zoning district. As a result of
30
206
City Council Meeting - May 29, 2007
the zoning and the architectural standards, we actually created the zoning, architectural standards
and we applied those city wide because everyone felt that we shouldn't have had the standards
along the corridor itself. We apply them city wide and those were actually done in 2001. So
what that did was, so the Highway district itself really just became two different standards for
setbacks because now the architectural standards which were really just intended for the
Highway 5 corridor, and there's a line that goes so many feet either side, applied city wide. So
the distinction between Highway 1 corridor district and 2 was really the setbacks within those
two different districts. And that's how it was intended to be. So that was not reflected in the,
when we did the major codification, somehow that got left. Language got left out so that was
intended to fix that. So that's how we've always interpreted that.
Councilman Litsey: Kate, that got left out of the code at that time or?
Kate Aanenson: Yeah. Just like some of these other things when we, when we sent our code
down to Municipal Code Corporation in Florida, there was a major hurricane and we got lost in
the shuffle for almost a year. We were kind of in flux with the code and they, instead of waiting
for us to receive a draft, it would have been another 6 months, we just said go ahead and make
the changes and send it to us. Unfortunately, what that left is some of the things that we didn't
get a chance of, we would have caught maybe a few of these. They just went ahead and made
the change and sent them all back up. But we've caught other ones. You know it happens that
things get missed in the translation and the codification but clearly the intent, if you go back to
the original ordinance, which we have attached in here, was to have the two separate districts
because if you said now everything has to be 70 feet, you pretty much make everything on the
east side of Powers non-conforming. Because they wouldn't meet the setbacks, all those original
buildings that were put in place.
Councilman Litsey: So what timeframe were we out of sync here? Between?
Kate Aanenson: 2004. Yeah.
Councilman Litsey: Up til now?
Kate Aanenson: Correct. Correct.
Councilman Litsey: So some of these projects along 7 like next to McDonalds, Abra is it?
Kate Aanenson: Yeah.
Councilman Litsey: And stuff, those were.
Kate Aanenson: All those meet the standards. What the underlying district does in that, where
they are, it says all you have to do is meet the underlying zoning district. Everything on the
other side of Powers has to have a 70 foot setback. So all those buildings have a choice to go to
the minimum. Put parking in front. And that's how they were all developed and that was the
intent. So that one is correct. With it's underlying zoning district. The problem was that the
Highway corridor district, the language got, the header got left out in the code itself.
31
207
City Council Meeting - May 29, 2007
Councilman Litsey: Just one other brief question. So if this is adopted, that building actually
would be out of compliance now then right?
Kate Aanenson: No. It is in compliance today.
Councilman Litsey: It will be in the future.
Kate Aanenson: It will be in the future, correct. It meets the district standards. What happened
is.
Mayor Furlong: With this omission, when the code was being corrected or changed, whatever,
you continued to apply the code as…
Kate Aanenson: Absolutely. As…'94, through '96. Right.
Mayor Furlong: There was no, my understanding is there's no change in the way the code's been
applied. It's just how it was…
Kate Aanenson: Right, which we would credit to the codification error by the Municipal Code
Corporation in giving us an incorrect draft. Back. As were these other ones that I just pointed
out. As was the wrong reference citation. That was just an error. Error of omission. There
wasn't any intent so it's in that same vein of corrections.
Todd Gerhardt: And we do this you know probably bi-annually. We bring them back.
Kate Aanenson: Yeah, at least bi-annually, correct.
Todd Gerhardt: Municipal Code does a good job but you know we still have to double check
them and we find mistakes periodically and we bring them back for correction.
Mayor Furlong: Any other questions at this point Councilman Litsey? I think Ms. Lloyd wanted
to make some public comments as she made the comment earlier so.
Debbie Lloyd: Debbie Lloyd, 7302 Laredo Drive. I'll take these off because I don't have
bifocals so in order to read all the material. First of all I want to say I'm glad to see that Bluff
Creek Boulevard has been put in as a collector street, as all along it has been noted as a collector
street in every staff report and I would assume that this would not make a change whatsoever in
the way it's always been. It's just documenting it as a collector street formally in the code.
Mayor Furlong: Can you clarify that? I think that's.
Kate Aanenson: Yeah, that's correct.
Mayor Furlong: Yep.
32
208
City Council Meeting - May 29, 2007
Debbie Lloyd: Okay. Second of all, relative to the item you were just covering with the changes
in code and everything, on the setback issue here for Highway 5, I went back to 1994 to the
minutes and they read, amendments to City Code creating the Highway 5 Overlay District which
establishes development and design standards for the Highway 5 corridor, final reading. And
unfortunately I couldn't go back to see what that all read because you don't have everything on
the web site and I didn't have time today when I came here for another issue for this, but there's
some real important points I think made in here that the setback was established at 70 feet and
there was some comments here because Fleet Farm was coming in at that time and there's a
gentleman by the name of Christopher Diets who implored the council not to use the 70 foot
setback. And he said the city is setting it up for arguments regarding whether a harmonious,
suitable, high quality, etc to be standards. And this is how I read Section 20-462 provides that
the minimal building setback for such lots is 70 feet from Highway 5 and 50 feet from the access
boulevard. And this gentleman was complaining because it would take away so much of his
property rights. All you have to do in my opinion is look at the boulevard. Look at everything
that's been established. Those new buildings past Abra are all set back, I mean it's obvious to
your eye. Abra's the only one that's not. Look down the corridor. I think the intent was to have
this nice green space and not have buildings adjacent to the right-of-way of a highway. I mean
50 feet from the pavement. Now I think the right-of-way's a few feet off the pavement at that
point, but I still would ask you to hold off on this until more research is done. I'm not, I haven't
seen those reports that Kate has but.
Kate Aanenson: There is an ordinance file too. Christopher Diets representing Mills Fleet Farm
did make that argument. For the record Mills Fleet Farm was intending to build on the
intersection of Highway 5 and 41. On the northeast corner. It was a huge impact to them.
Again we're talking about the west side of Powers. Always. Even on that map. There's two
separate districts. There always was when it was put in place. One, because if you go back and
read the intent of the entire ordinance, there was a prevailing development pattern in the core of
downtown. That was already in place. We would have made all those buildings non-
conforming. The intent was to go from Powers out to the rest of the city. And we've always had,
when it was put in place from the very beginning, had two separate setbacks. One for the new
development and one for the core of downtown.
Mayor Furlong: You know the other issue that occurs to me, Ms. Lloyd by your comments
about the distance buildings are back from the road, even east of Powers. Mr. Oehme, the right-
of-way does not necessarily fall an equal distance back from the asphalt along Highway 5 or
even other streets and roads. I mean I, and the reason I ask that question, if I recall correctly
when we were asked a number of years ago with regard to a variance on a setback for the Legion
with regard to their.
Kate Aanenson: Patio.
Mayor Furlong: Patio, and when we looked at the map there was a, there wasn't a smooth line
across. It was a certain distance in one place and much less in another place and so I think with
line of sight, it may look different but when we get to looking on the surveyor's lines, is that
right-of-way even of does it jog in and out along the corridor?
33
209
City Council Meeting - May 29, 2007
Paul Oehme: I'd have to look specifically in that corridor but yeah, it does vary substantially in
MnDot right-of-way. County right-of-way. Even City right-of-way in terms of where the back
of curb is to where the right-of-way line will be so it does vary.
Mayor Furlong: Okay.
Kate Aanenson: But you're correct, we did give a variance to the Legion for that specific
anomaly. They had, for some reason MnDot had taken a, kind of a chunk out of that middle of
that site so you felt it was punitive for them to, but if you do look at Park Nicollet, it's not set
back that greater distance either. All those buildings along that, it was part of the intent of that
central business district to give, if you go back to the discussions on the entire Highway 5
corridor, you wanted that sense that you were in the core of downtown, and that that was kind of
what we've done also on West 78th when you enter downtown. We've pushed those buildings
closer to the street on West 78th, that same kind of discussion when we talked about design for
the Highway 5 corridor.
Mayor Furlong: Okay.
Todd Gerhardt: And if you check the curb for McDonald's parking lot as it runs parallel to the
drive thru, it almost matches up with the building, Abra's building.
Mayor Furlong: Alright, thank you. Any other discussion or comments? Relating to these code
sections. Proposed amendments.
Councilman Litsey: Does doing this now with what's being recommended, does it jeopardize
any concerns previous to this?
Kate Aanenson: This is what we have in place. You can ask the City Attorney but it's an error
in the codification so it's not our ordinance that's in place. It got translated wrong.
Councilman Litsey: I mean holding off on this particular section, what would that accomplish?
Would it just more research and, you're saying it would come to the same conclusion.
Kate Aanenson: Well right because our ordinance, what's wrong is how it got changed from the
Municipal Code Corporation who does our codification. Our ordinance is correct and that's just
what we're saying. We're giving false information to people. That would be my concern.
Councilman Peterson: So the real question is whether or not we want to change the ordinance.
Kate Aanenson: Let me clarify that. We're not changing the ordinance. We're fixing an error in
the code, if that's correct.
Roger Knutson: Yeah, you're correcting a codifier's error.
Councilman Peterson: But to your point Bryan, if we want to change that look and feel that Abra
is, you need to change the ordinance. Two different things.
34
210
City Council Meeting - May 29, 2007
Councilman Litsey: Okay. This is a housekeeping measure basically?
Kate Aanenson: In staff's opinion, yes. As were the other ones that I had mentioned. That there
were wrong citations or something to put in the wrong section of the code that should have been
carried over to a different, the liquor license.
Councilman Litsey: Okay.
Mayor Furlong: Any other questions? Comments. If not, is there a motion relating to item 1(c)?
Is there a motion to adopt staff's recommendation? Or to make any changes to staff's
recommendation?
Councilwoman Ernst: So moved.
Mayor Furlong: Moving to adopt staff's recommendations?
Councilwoman Ernst: Yes.
Councilman Peterson: Second.
Mayor Furlong: Thank you. It's been moved and seconded. Any discussion on the motion?
Councilwoman Ernst moved, Councilman Peterson seconded to approve the Ordinance
Amendments to Chapter 20, Zoning, Chanhassen City Code as presented. All voted in
favor and the motion carried unanimously with a vote of 4 to 0.
COUNCIL PRESENTATIONS:
Councilman Litsey: Yeah I had one. I know it's getting on in time here and we have a work
session after this so I'll skip over a couple things until another time but I just wanted to bring up
that there has been an ad hoc Heritage Preservation Committee formed. They had their first
meeting on Saturday afternoon on March 31st at the Historic St. Hubert's Church. And then there
was a follow-up meeting this past Thursday evening, May 24th at the Chanhassen Library. It's
been reported some in the Chanhassen Villager so I'm not going to go over a lot of that part of it
but generally three things have kind of filtered out through that process in terms of what needs to
be looked at and one is potentially partnering with the City to form a Heritage Preservation
Committee. I believe, well I know Excelsior has one and Chaska has one. Many communities
have them. The second is forming a Chanhassen Historical Society that may or may not partner
with Carver County Historical Society. There's advantages to that but that would need to be
looked at. And then perhaps forming a specific task force to take a look at preserving the
historic St. Hubert's Church. So kind of three different areas that just wanted to let you know
that may be coming before the council and I'd be more than willing to work with this committee
and I have attended both their meetings and have an interest in the work they're doing so I think
the first step at this point, at least what I suggested and maybe council has different ideas but was
that we perhaps meet at the staff level to talk through some of this stuff and then depending on
35
211
City Council Meeting - May 29, 2007
time constraints and so forth, maybe coming before a work session or something down the road
so, just wanted to let you know about that and I'll forego all the other comments. Thanks.
Mayor Furlong: Okay. Any other council presentations? No? Mr. Gerhardt, administrative
presentations?
ADMINISTRATIVE PRESENTATIONS: None.

PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Stolar: Anything you wish to announce?
Hoffman: …public right now General Mills and also Chairman Stolar and the other volunteers
are working, it was last Saturday. Week ago Saturday.
Stolar: Week ago Saturday.
Hoffman: Week ago Saturday at the Lake Ann rain gardens. These are a part of the Lake Ann
pavement management, water management project that was initiated last year. These rain
gardens are very well designed and developed and the basins were there and then the plants
came. Do you remember the exact count? It was astounding the number of plants. Thousands.
Stolar: Yeah, I mean we would have a small section of one garden and it's like okay, now put
about hundred there. Okay, we'll put a hundred there. So yeah, it had to be easily over 1,000.
Easily.
Hoffman: Thousands of plants. General Mills came to the table and they all started out that
morning about 6:30 and planted probably about 75% I think of the plants. 3 out of 4 gardens.
Stolar: 3 out of 4 gardens and 2 of them were the 2 biggest I believe so.
Hoffman: There's one remaining. Staff was going to tackle that last week but instead we were
contacted by Minnetonka High School and their Senior Service Day, they're going to come out
and plant plants. The seniors can't concentrate on school for the last couple of days and so they
get a couple of days of projects. A big bunch of those seniors will be coming down to Lake Ann
Park and finishing up that project so the plants have been moved off the parking space at Lake
282
Park and Rec Commission - May 22, 2007
Ann over to a shady spot at public works and they're being watered until June 5th I believe is
when Minnetonka will come out and finish those rain garden plantings. And then they already
look beautiful today but you were talking about in a couple years it will be really a showcase so
Glenn to your credit, you've been working on, what was the task force you worked on early on?
Stolar: The Surface Water Management Task Force.
Hoffman: Also to the credit of the City Manager Todd Gerhardt. This is something that was not
a part of the original budget. He made it a priority requesting staff to make it happen and so
thanks to everyone for coming together. I think it's going to be a real showcase. Something like
driving to the Arboretum. You're going to be driving into Lake Ann Park and these rain gardens
are going to be a real showcase for the community so thank you everyone.
Scharfenberg: Todd, quick question. Is there any land, given the amount of construction that we
have going on with road construction and that, to do any more of those gardens?
Hoffman: Around the community?
Scharfenberg: Yeah.
Hoffman: Absolutely. Yep. Where appropriate they're taking a look at that. Really the best
way to manage ground water, or surface water runoff is not, to try to keep it out of place and in
order to do that you need to incorporate these rain gardens and other, so there's not just city wide
but industry wide. Developers are looking at that and the parks will be looking at that. As we
bring, staff brings forward specific sites, we'll keep you updated as to where they're at.
Stolar: And just to add a little bit to what Todd said, first of all from, it was a lot of fun. That
was first of all. Just a blast and General Mills was great. They came out with I don't know how
many people but I was working on one part of one of the gardens with a family, you know two
young kids. They were just eager to help. I think the boy was 5 and a daughter 7 I believe, or 8.
Something like that. And they came for, General Mills workers, they came from Glencoe. All
the way out here to help us and so, and that was pretty typical. The surface water management
task force definitely asked as part of our recommendations that the city be a showcase for how
you do some of these what they call best management practices so it's nice to see that we actually
you know, again credit to Todd Gerhardt and Lori Haak, that they said let's go ahead and do it
and we're going to do it. A few people who helped from the city, Charlie Eiler. He was out
there bright and early working. Kate and Karen. The office manager. Is she a receptionist? She
did a great job too and then a couple, Lori of course led the way. Jill Sinclair. Krista, I don't
remember her last name either. Also with, works with Lori.
Hoffman: Yep, brand new employee.
Stolar: And it was fun. It was absolutely a lot of fun so please go out and look at them.
2
283
Park and Rec Commission - May 22, 2007
Hoffman: Yeah, and the great thing about General Mills is now they've adopted this site.
…General Mills will have ownership of being a partner in that and that's really I think builds
community between your business community and your park system.
Stolar: You know actually I was thinking maybe as a thank you, when we get our new shelter,
we say hey you want to use it one time for some.
Hoffman: You bet, absolutely.
Stolar: Great. Any other announcements? I know we have the senior center dinner when,
tomorrow?
Hoffman: Tomorrow night.
Stolar: I don't know who will be able to make it there. And then, is that it for upcoming events?
So when do the summer concerts start?
Ruegemer: The 18th.
Stolar: 18th? So before our next meeting?
Ruegemer: Yeah. Yeah, Teddy Bear Band is the first one. We're looking for volunteers for the
bid mascot teddy bear so. So yeah, that's the kick off. The Thursday, either 13, 14, 15,
somewhere in that range for the next week. I don't have the schedule here now but.
Daniel: But the schedule is filled?
Ruegemer: Yeah.
Hoffman: Point of clarification. The sod out there was rejected by staff so it's being left to die.
The contractor will be coming back and replacing that. The problem was not the sod. It was
how they prepared the soils underneath so, and they agreed that it was poorly done. A lot of
ankle busters in there. Not properly tilled and so they'll be coming in this week. They've got
some materials back on the site and re-doing that project.
Stolar: Great. Anything else? Seeing none, visitor presentations?
VISITOR PRESENTATIONS: None.

Park and Rec Commission - May 22, 2007
DISCUSSION CONCERNING MAY 29TH JOINT MEETING WITH CITY COUNCIL.
Stolar: Our meeting on Tuesday, a week from today with the City Council and Todd.
Hoffman: Thank you Chair Stolar, members of the commission. For those, for everyone's
benefit we'd just like to put a few discussion topics. 3-4 discussion topics together that you can
forward to the council to let them know what you would like to discuss that evening. Obviously
when you have an audience with the council you want to hit your priorities. You do this a couple
of times a year so I'll leave it up to the commission to come up with those discussion items
before we go to City Council.
Stolar: Okay. Why don't we start Thor with you. Any thoughts? For our new commission
members, what we've done in the past, we've just brainstormed a few ideas. Kind of went
around round robin with some ideas and then we've then discussed them and then prioritized for
Todd so we present it to the City Council before we meet with them. So, anything is fair game in
this part of the discussion.
Smith: So are we talking about like what we talked about last week with the comprehensive plan
thing or just.
Hoffman: Yep.
Stolar: Anything at all that you want to talk about with the City Council. Either one, seeking
their input on some direction or thoughts. Two, just ideas you want to present to them as it
relates to park and rec or things you think that we should present to them. What, about 4 years
ago we talked to them about dog park. The dog park. We talked to them about the playground
what, 5 years ago. So it's where we kind of laid out for them some of our priorities or interest
and then got, sought their feedback and discussion.
Smith: Okay. I guess my, one of my main topics would be completion of some of the trail
connectors. There's quite a few.
Stolar: Okay.
Smith: That's all I can think about off the top of my head but.
Stolar: Okay. Well, we circle around a couple of times. We can open it up again. Dan?
Campion: Yeah, I can't think of anything off the top of my head right now.
Stolar: Okay.
Daniel: Ballpark expansion. Lake Susan.
Stolar: In the context of?
4
285
Park and Rec Commission - May 22, 2007
Daniel: In the context of a grandstand.
Stolar: Yeah, so city ballpark basically. Okay. As opposed to some of…adding new fields.
Kelly: That was mine. Adding new fields. And also a question too, are you worried about the
new, the path that will be on 101 or is that not park and rec responsibility because it existed
before they tore up that road?
Hoffman: Am I worried about it?
Kelly: Well is that going to happen without us having to do anything?
Hoffman: Yes.
Kelly: Okay.
Hoffman: The 212 project and then also the Highway 101 gap project, both of those included
trail plans which were, we suggested, they reviewed and approved and then we have the final
plans and so it's, for example, 101 south will have trails both on the west against the lake and on
the east side. Going around there and then Highway 212, we dead ended a trail down there by
Chanhassen Hills Park and now we're going to extend that trail behind that sound wall and it's
something that MnDot would not normally have done but we negotiated that. So there's trail and
crossings. One thing to remember on all those, on Highway 212 overpass, there's only a trail on
one side and the other side would cost probably another, over a quarter million dollars to add that
trail so one side and we selected the side which would seem to carry the most traffic you know
based on pedestrian traffic.
Kelly: Thanks.
Stolar: Steve.
Scharfenberg: I would just highlight for council the completion of a dog park and agreement
with Carver County and that, hopefully that will be something that will be up and running I think
by next spring and we would like the council to come out and attend once we get that opened up.
I think just in general, like Tom mentioned, ballfields or just green space in general. What we
talked about with our comprehensive plan and trying to do something with the limited amount of
green space that we have left and trying to protect that and you know purchase additional land if
at all possible sometime in the future. That's been what we've said the last referendum was '96-
97. Yeah. So it's been a while since we've done anything along those lines so.
Hoffman: Right, '96.
Stolar: Okay. Thor, any other? Okay. By the way, we usually don't have a lot of time so.
Hoffman: 30 minutes.
5
286
Park and Rec Commission - May 22, 2007
Stolar: Jeff?
Daniel: I'm fine.
Stolar: Okay. I guess part of what I would add is related to all of these. Some of the
comprehensive plan priorities as we talk about, when we met the other week, which we talked
about open space, green space. We did do a lot of discussion about the trails, you know that we
do envision a very, very connected trail system. And I've heard Tom speak of that before, Mayor
Furlong, that that's one of the things that he also enjoys and I think you know all of us really like
that trail system. I was trying to think, was there anything else?
Daniel: There might be one other thing I would like to add, and I think that's something we
talked last week and that's the addition of, or the possible discussion of a walking path or set
aside space along Yosemite in the construction. If they're going to tear it up.
Hoffman: Good idea.
Daniel: And I think that impacts the Mayor, if I remember correctly, and where he lives. So
there might be some, you know we can have those discussions but I figure if they're going to be
doing that, it'd be a perfect opportunity.
Hoffman: To Commissioner Scharfenberg's point, great idea to make sure that the council's
aware that you attended that meeting. I think they'd really appreciate that. Your going down to
the county board.
Scharfenberg: And I guess maybe just highlight again what we have in the CIP for the next 5
years. We kind of you know moved up, you know we moved up the lighting of the ballfield this
year and we think that that's going to add capacity but probably not answer all of our questions.
I can't remember what else we've got in the CIP for the next 5 years.
Stolar: We've got a couple trails in there.
Scharfenberg: So the things that we moved around, I know with the Bluff Creek, with that
space, a lot of that was for bridges so there's bridge and some other trails and that stuff so a lot of
our money in the next couple years going to that.
Stolar: I think you know if we start off by talking to them and thanking them for some of the
things that we've actually talked about here, the funding of the dog park that was in our CIP, and
again kind of background. The CIP is our Capital Improvement Plan. We get to recommend to
the city what we'd like to see but ultimately they approve and the dog park, they agreed with us.
Funding there. And then the light acceleration, they approved that. They approved, we also
moved the Lake Ann shelter, field shelter. And they approved that. And then things they did on
their own, approving the re-paving of Lake Ann was done outside of the CIP. So the city did
that as part of streets I believe, correct?
Hoffman: Correct.
6
287
Park and Rec Commission - May 22, 2007
Stolar: Which it was great. Pavement management. Saved us money for investing in other park
things so and maybe start out, I mean it's been a great partnership over the past few years. If you
add to that the playground stuff that they did, you know 2 years, going 3 years ago, take my time,
he's writing that. It was you know, it's just been a great partnership for parks and rec and trails
and open space so I think start out with that. That's, it's been a pretty good run here. And then
talk about some of the things that we have out here. On the city ballpark thing, I'd actually be
interested in what their thoughts are on that.
Daniel: That's exactly why I want to bring it up. No, I understand the, but before we progress
any further, you know we need to get an idea of what City Council and their thoughts and views
on that. What they've been approached by the city itself so.
Campion: So are you talking about at Lake Ann fields?
Daniel: Lake Susan. The expansion of Lake Susan ballfields to accommodate a town team, high
school baseball team and legion team with the addition of grandstand. Making it a more family
oriented park. Similar to the athletic field in Chaska, Jordan. There are many…
Stolar: And Minnetonka I believe is using the new high school field for their town team.
Scharfenberg: And I will not be at that meeting. I've got a conflict with softball that night so.
Stolar: Okay. Do we want to talk at all about the high school? Is that something or not really
anything to talk about?
Hoffman: Not presently. There's still the whole question of ice arenas trying to work itself out
and then the baseball conversation as a part of that conversation.
Stolar: Did they get that included the better turf or?
Hoffman: They have the, each one of the alternates for artificial turf is just under a half a million
dollars for the baseball stadium, football stadium and the practice fields, and they're waiting,
they've awarded 40 of the $100 million in contracts but they're waiting to see some of the other
bigger contracts come in before, right now they're just right on budget so there isn't surplus
money and they predict that there will be some other things that come in. Construction market is
very competitive right now…
Campion: So what is being discussed for the ice arena?
Hoffman: Right now the option they're pursuing is the purchase of the Victoria Ice Arena and
that's caused a community conversation in Victoria. 300 and some people signing a petition
saying they don't want to sell it and so that conversation is still occurring. And if the school
district purchased that, they would probably have plans to add a second sheet of ice onto that
facility. If that doesn't happen, that doesn't mean that the Chanhassen High School will not be
7
288
Park and Rec Commission - May 22, 2007
playing hockey at the arena. They probably still would be. It would just be operated by the City
of Victoria and the school district renting or leasing that space.
Stolar: This is probably the shortest list we've had in a while. We got a lot of things knocked
off. Usually when we brainstorm we get a lot longer of a list and so this is good.
Hoffman: You're 1 of 3 commissions that evening but you were allowed the longest time so.
Stolar: So what would we want to talk, do you want us to prioritize or do you think we'll be able
to touch on most of these?
Hoffman: Well, let me list them and so you can see if I have a clear understanding. We want to
talk about trails and basically they're, I don't think there are any contentious issues there. Just
that everybody needs to agree that trails continue to be a priority. We have them in the CIP but
we want to make these connectors and we talked about that in the comp plan and people need
access to those. Ballpark expansion at Lake Susan. Creating a town baseball field. Potentially
adding new ballfields or green space in the future, and again I tie that back into the
comprehensive plan. And Yosemite trail. That would be a sub-set of the trail conversation. And
then to highlight the CIP process and to start the meeting off with thanking the council for all
they've done with the different projects over the past couple of years.
Kelly: And the dog park too.
Hoffman: Oh yep.
Stolar: The dog park was going to be part of the thank you but yeah, but I think we need to
highlight that we got the approval. We went down to talk to. What was the other thing we were
talking about? Oh, if the CIP meeting, the comprehensive plan meeting we were talking about
the, talk to the county about the Frisbee golf.
Hoffman: Oh yeah.
Stolar: But maybe highlight the partnership when we talk dog park and then we might look for
other opportunities to find.
Scharfenberg: And I'd also mention the fact that we partnered up with the CAA this year in
improving the ballfields out at Lake Ann with some improvements out there with their assistance
so we're trying to build some partnerships within the community with other organizations so.
Stolar: Yep. I think yeah, that's almost like another topic here because we even put it in the CIP,
basically the comprehensive plan that again we want to increase and improve our partnerships
but it's a nice little discussions about the city's ballpark. That that would be a partnership too.
Okay, good. Any other comments? And the last time you'll send us something? Okay, thank
you.
Daniel: So you'll want us here Todd by 6:00?
8
289
Park and Rec Commission - May 22, 2007
Hoffman: Yep, by 6:00.
Daniel: So we can be ready to go.
Hoffman: Yeah, because they might juggle around the schedule a little bit. You could get in
early. More likely you'll be late but you can.
RECREATION PROGRAM REPORTS:
LAKE ANN PARK SUMMER SCHEDULE.
Ruegemer: Thanks Chair Stolar. Just you know with summer coming closer and closer here,
everything is really getting busy. We are going to open up the Lake Ann concession stands this
coming weekend. We do have everybody hired. We'll have a manager down to the, where our
concession is down there for that. We have a full staff again down there for that operation. We
are going to open up starting on Saturday with all the boat rentals, food sales, all that sort of
thing. The coke delivery did come today. The ice cream, candy and such is going to be coming
on Thursday. We have staff training scheduled for Friday down there and we're going to adjust
the hours. Last summer we were open from 11:00 a.m. to 7:00, all the throughout the summer
and really the first part of August, end of July it really did really kind of tail off so we're going to
cut that back down to 6:00 after August 1st or so to try to save on some labor costs and that sort
of thing too. Some of the sales, revenue from the sales. Picnic phone calls continue to be steady.
Just to let the commission know that out of you know 30-31 days in August, probably at the
Lake Ann pavilion, I probably have probably about 10 open days so there are no Saturdays or
Sundays open anymore at Lake Ann for picnics and that sort of thing. Highlights, the Miracle
Kids Triathlon is certainly the big corner on that. We have 2 weeks at Lake Ann Adventure
Camp out there this summer. …is going to be doing a kind of theater camp out there as well, a
week long so we really have a lot of those weekday type of activities that are really kind of
filling in that area. And to kind of go with our outdoor, outdoor recreation. You know just get
the kids out of the traditional classrooms and get them out into our park facilities has been one of
our goals with that so it's been extremely popular out there as well and…certainly is busy as well
so if we had had…we probably would have booked it about 4 times over again so that's good.
We're getting some activity out there and I think that new picnic site over at Parkview is going to
be a great thing for us. It's another option. Certainly people want the convenience that they
have, the assurance of a shelter, picnic shelter in case of rain or even heat with that too so just to
let the commission know this is going to be very well received from the community.
Scharfenberg: Do we know when it's going to be ready?
Hoffman: Be ready for next year's season. Final completion in October.
Ruegemer: …so I assume that we're going to be in that you know projection. You know 90 to
100 picnics again. 100 plus. Around that $9,000, probably $10,000 range so, which is good.
And Lake Ann, the beach is schedule to open up Saturday, June 9th, depending on the weather.
If it's nice and that sort of thing, we certainly can open up early. Minnetonka is okay with that.
9
290
Park and Rec Commission - May 22, 2007
Also I think…a day or two early because we do have a Minnetonka Middle School group coming
down with 100-150 kids with that summer, what we've done in the past, we've had lifeguards on
duty that day. We do open up the concession stand as well and capture some revenue from an
audience that we had there that day so they are scheduled to start around the first part of June,
June 9th area and we will be going with Minnetonka again for that service and the beach hours
are going to remain 10:30 to 8:00 p.m.. I have a meeting with Minnetonka to kind of go over
kind of all the details or the equipment needs, that sort of thing in the near future down at Lake
Ann. Make sure everything is cool and a smooth opening day.
Stolar: You want to talk about summer programs? I'm sorry, any questions on the update?
Okay, would you like to talk about summer programs?
2007 SUMMER PROGRAM REPORT.
Ruegemer: Well my summer got a whole lot busier for 2 or 3 days but with Nate's absence I'm
back wearing the programming hat even more now these days so I just, a lot of meetings the last
couple weeks and kind of getting more and more familiar with kind of everything that Nate did,
certainly with the summer camps to seasonal playground staff to just about all of the above so,
just to let the commission know too, we did put our program, our City Connection, our summer
edition out a month earlier this year and that seems to paying dividends for us. Our playground
program has had probably the highest numbers ever up to this point and really all the programs
really across the board seem to be seeing an increase in numbers and revenues so that seems to
be an item that certainly has paid off for us. We're pleased about that.
Kelly: If I can comment on that. A number of people in our neighborhood use that. To them it's
the greatest deal in the world. It's like how many, how many sessions?
Ruegemer: The playground program?
Kelly: Yeah.
Ruegemer: 7 or 8.
Kelly: And it's about $35? Yeah, they think it's great.
Stolar: My daughter did it last year. I think she's doing it again.
Ruegemer: Yes, we've had a couple up at Lake Susan on Friday afternoons and it looks like that
is going to fill as well and we'll be going 100% by every set that we've offered, we're going to
run so we've very happy with that. And the playground director did start this week so she's in the
process of laying out all the lesson plans and kind of getting all that information. Training
information all together. We have Reach for Resources coming in again to talk about adaptive
recreation type of situations with our seasonal staff. We have CPR training, trained and
scheduled with the seasonal staff when it comes to leaders and that sort of thing so. There's a lot
of things going on right now. You know obviously with, we did add the summer park, the skate
park series on July 3rd. That's kind of a competition, a roving competition that's going to be,
10
291
Park and Rec Commission - May 22, 2007
we're going to have a stop at the Chanhassen Skate Park as part of our 4th of July celebration. It's
kind of a Little League kind of a tournament or a schedule for kids on skate parks so it's a
cumulative point type of thing and Chanhassen's going to have a stop this year on July 3rd and
then we're going to go to the different parts of the Twin Cities as well so we're pretty excited
about that as well. So just a lot of different things that I've been busy with throughout the course
of the season. We did add the partnership with Lifetime Fitness this year as well. Using the rock
climbing wall and using the wall as a terrific…trek so we'll be extremely busy this year. We did
change our tennis program with a different vendor and that saved on average probably about $20
per child on the registration so it went really from around $100 for tennis lessons down to around
80 so we're looking at kind of those new types of opportunities to again lower our cost for our
participants and, but yet providing the same quality of service that we had in the past so we're
always looking for new ways to try to do things differently I guess and try to save some money
so. But other than that, that's pretty much it in a nutshell so if anybody has any questions, Glenn
did mention the Twilight Tunes and Lunchtime Lyrics. We increased the schedule for that this
year so we have kind of a wide variety of musical types of opportunities and taste for people this
year so every Thursday and also we'll be doing a couple during the lunch hour as well so. And
we have an intern starting tomorrow and she'll be for a couple days and will start for sure 40
hours a week next Tuesday so we're looking forward to that.
Kelly: When do you think Nate's position will be filled? Besides not soon enough.
Ruegemer: June 15th.
Kelly: June 15th.
Ruegemer: Oh, that's aggressive. Before the 4th of July.
Stolar: Yeah, first day on the job is going to be 4th of July.
Ruegemer: That will be an interview question. What are you going the 3rd and 4th every year so.
Stolar: Great.
Hoffman: We have the utmost in confidence. Jerry's done this job before and he'll do it again
so, it keeps him sharp.
Stolar: Just counting the days for the intern to get here. Okay Jerry, you're up again.
SELF-SUPPORTING PROGRAMS: 2007 ADULT SOFTBALL UPDATE.
Ruegemer: I'm up again? Oh softball, okay. That's one of my deals. Just, you know we did a
double header league again on Monday nights out there. If we had more capacity we certainly
could add teams on that. People love the double header format and with the light package
coming on line, we're definitely going to expand our softball program next year where we kind
of get Field #6 back from the kids. I'd like to expand the adult softball program as well as offer a
few more of these types of leagues. I was out there tonight watching the women's league. That
11
292
Park and Rec Commission - May 22, 2007
increased. We have continued our partnership with Eden Prairie Park and Rec on that and
combining our women's program. So last year we had 10 teams. This year 14 so we're very
happy with that. Keep bolstering those types of numbers. It's worked out great with Eden
Prairie with both Bob Lions, the personnel with… We've had great cooperation and sharing
scheduling types of situations. Fields. Umpires. The whole deal so I would like to continue that
partnership and I think it's been working well on their end as well so I hope they would say the
same. The over 40 league is another double header league. That's been going good. We are
down 1 team for that but in time we can get that back at least up to 8 again next year so.
Daniel: 3 more years Jerry.
Ruegemer: What's that?
Daniel: 3 more years.
Ruegemer: 3 more years. There you go.
Daniel: We're almost there.
Ruegemer: Thursday night remains our most popular night with 18 teams and if I had you know
more capacity we certainly could try a double header or just expand that number from 18 to, with
single games we could at least go more teams so I'd like to do that again next year as well so.
And Friday night we do struggle with. You know we've had 4 teams you know and probably in
my realm of being a director out here for softball, we've had probably as high as 14 to 16 on
Friday nights. It's just, the numbers keep dwindling and you know teams move on and people
get older and find other interests and that sort of thing. Something I'm kind of kicking around is
possibly doing an every other Friday night type of leagues. You're not playing every Friday
nights and maybe that would increase numbers.
Campion: Maybe like a Sunday night or.
Ruegemer: Sunday night, yeah we've thought about that as well. It's hard for umpires for me to
get Sunday nights but I know church type of leagues work Sunday nights and other type of
things too so we'd certainly follow up on that as well.
Campion: I, the last 2 years played on one of those in Eden Prairie and it seems like they have a
decent turnout. I don't know how many teams exactly but I'm pretty sure it's move than 4. Like
closer to 10 I think.
Ruegemer: So, that's pretty much it in a nutshell. Everything is with softball is, I'd say pretty
much on cruise control as long as umpires are showing up and the lights are turning on, we're in
pretty good shape so. But that's pretty much it.
Hoffman: They were all burning last night.
Ruegemer: They were burning.

Park and Rec Commission - May 22, 2007
ADMINISTRATIVE: ARBORETUM BUSINESS PARK 7TH ADDITION TRAIL.
Hoffman: Thank you Chair Stolar, members of the commission. I wanted to make you aware,
you visited this site last month. Just wanted to make you aware that we administratively
continuing to work on the project. The developer will be building this section of trail. The city
will be doing some of the master planning for both the trail and then a future trail head in this
location, just off of the Coulter Boulevard location so. And something for the commission to
remember is that this is another investment of significant dollars and CIP, park dedication dollars
so these projects come along and they go in and then we pay for the materials costs. In this case
we also pay a 10% administration fee back to the developer for, per the development contract so.
Stolar: Just for clarification for Todd. This is south of Lifetime right?
Hoffman: Correct.
Stolar: Right. So not the one right to Lifetime…south of there.
Hoffman: That's called Water Tower Place I believe.
Stolar: Because there's a trail on the other side, yeah. Right next to that, who you have the
whole loop.
Hoffman: Which trail Tom?
Kelly: There's a trail right by Lifetime. If you cross on Century and that trail actually goes
behind some condos.
Hoffman: Yep. This is a completion of that trail. You'll be able to run all the way around, 2
miles.
Kelly: Okay.
Smith: When is this?
Hoffman: This summer.
Daniel: I anticipate that will be highly used by Lifetime as well… So this will all be part of their
program I assume.
Stolar: Yep. Thank you.
Hoffman: You're welcome. Somebody else in charge of that…
Stolar: And then maybe we can get kind of one of those little stations out there. Work out
stations.

Park and Rec Commission - May 22, 2007
COMMISSION MEMBER COMMITTEE REPORTS. None.
COMMISSION MEMBER PRESENTATIONS: None.
ADMINISTRATIVE PACKET:
Stolar: Are there any questions here? And if you have any questions about the City Council
meeting process, we can talk about that. I'll just highlight basically if there's an item of interest
for the Park and Rec Commission and your name's on here, you will get a packet and that's your
signal that you should go. If you can't go, if you would just call somebody. I have one I'm
probably not going to be able to go to. Talking to Steve and see if we can swap but we'll let
Todd know. We also send out blanket emails to the mailing list and say can anyone take over
my time there. And it is preferred that you also go to the working session if we have an item that
they talk about in the working session.
Kelly: Is it possible to put this on a web site and send us a link so we could just have access to
the whole schedule and everyone's email? Is that something that could be done.
Stolar: It can sent out electronically too.
Kelly: I just mean for the future. Some type of a web site where we can go to that would have
this information. Is that?
Hoffman: I don't think so.
Kelly: We can't do it?
Hoffman: Yeah, some privacy stuff but I can ask around.
Kelly: Alright. Just with the email addresses and the home work and?
Hoffman: Yep.
Stolar: Did you mean the contact list or the?
Kelly: Both.
Stolar: Because we also have this directory that they've got.
Kelly: Yep, yep. Understand. If someone's at work and they want to email someone else to go
up to a web site and get the address.
Hoffman: I'll check for you.
Kelly: Alright.

Park and Rec Commission - May 22, 2007
Hoffman: And then Dan's, somebody's going to mention Dan's number, home number, we need
to correct it. It's 960-0817.
Kelly: One more time.
Hoffman: 960-0817.
Stolar: And Todd here's where my number was off by 1 on the, my work number which wasn't
done in the other thing. The last number should be 6.
Hoffman: 66.
Stolar: Yeah, 6566.
Scharfenberg: And Jeff's email address is, I'm assuming mcshi, not sl.
Daniel: Oh it's correct on this. I'm looking on.
Scharfenberg: On that one it's correct but not on this one.
Daniel: This one so it's, is it 960?
Scharfenberg: 960-017.
Hoffman: Thanks for making those corrections. We'll update it. Nate's resignation letter.
Lotus Woods was an interesting, you remember Lotus Woods. We were up there and that was
an interesting Planning Commission. The neighborhood turned out in force and was asking the
Planning Commission to do a variety of things which they didn't have the authority to do but
they did end up, at least being pleased that the park commission recommended the preservation
of that open space and some other things as a part of the subdivision so you did your part of the
job and for that the neighborhood is happy and I think it's going to move forward.
Stolar: And there was no issue with that at the Planning Commission about our
recommendation?
Hoffman: No.
Stolar: Any other questions? Okay, seeing none, unless there are any other items on anybody's
mind they wish to discuss, do we have a motion for adjournment?
Scharfenberg moved, Daniel seconded that the meeting was adjourned. All voted in favor
and the motion carried unanimously with a vote of 6 to 0. The Park and Recreation
Commission meeting was adjourned at 8:15 p.m..

parks and fire department would let it bum itself out There are natural
fire breaks already there We would patrol the perimeter and just
observe Actually we would be doing the park a favor by letting it bum

past the Fire Department will have a stand by crew available at the site
Additionally the group has provided a 1 million liability insurance policy

FINAL PLAT
The applicant is requesting final plat approval to replat 10 01 acres into 2 lots and 3 outlots
The site is zoned Planned Unit Development Mixed Use and is located at the southeast
intersection ofthe future alignment ofHighways 212 101 and north of Lyman Boulevard
Lot 1 is proposed to be the future site ofthe parking ramp with an area of 3 128 acres Lot 2 will
house two retail buildings This lot will have an area of0 955 acres Outlot C will be platted at a
future date into 33 lots to house townhouses with driveways and common areas for the townhouses
2 5 acres Outlot A contains parking areas and drive isles 1 75 acres Outlot B contains a 100
foot wide landscape buffer 1 67 acres
The ordinance states that All lots shall abut for their full required minimum frontage on a
public street as required by the zoning ordinance or be accessed by a private street or a flag lot
which shall have a minimum of thirty feet of frontage on apublic street
All lots have street frontage either public or private Access on the other hand is mainly gained
from a right in out only off of Highway 101 and a full access off of Lyman Boulevard A private
street and cross access easements will be shared between the properties
The subdivision request is a relatively straightforward action and staff is recommending approval
with conditions
There are no minimum lot areas within a PUD The following are the lot tabulations for the
project
Areas Gross 436 240 square feet or 10 015 acres
Lot 1 136 258 square feet or 3 128 acres

OTHER AGENCIES
The applicant shall apply for and obtain permits from the appropriate regulatory agencies e g
Riley Purgatory BluffCreek Watershed District Minnesota Pollution Control Agency NPDES
Phase II Construction Site Permit Minnesota Department ofNatural Resources for dewatering
Army Corps of Engineers Minnesota Department of Transportation Minnesota Department of
Health and comply with their conditions of approval
EXISTING CONDITIONS
The site is bound by the new Highway 312 to the north Highway 101 to the west Lyman
Boulevard to the south and large lot residential to the east
The high point ofthe property lies in the west central portion ofthe site and gently slopes Steep
slopes exist within the treed area in the northeast comer of the parent property
EASEMENTS AND RIGHT OF WAY
MNDOT has acquired right of way for Highways 312 and 101 The preliminary plat identifies a
194 foot wide right of way for Highway 101
The existing roadway easement for Lyman Boulevard along the property boundary is 86 feet
wide from the east property line to approximately the location ofthe development s access to
Lyman Boulevard From this point west the roadway easement tapers out to a width of 146 feet
The developer will dedicate an additional 14 feet of right of way therefore the total roadway
easement right of way width for Lyman Boulevard will be between 100 feet and 160 feet
307
SouthWest Village Planning Case No 06 18
June 11 2007
Page 8
The plat includes a 25 foot wide drainage and utility easement over the sanitary sewer and
watermain along Highway 101 between Lyman Boulevard and the Southwest Station entrance
The plat also includes a 30 to 52 foot wide drainage and utility easement over the storm sewer
in the northern portion of the property Encroachment agreements are required for these two
easements due to the extensive landscaping and sidewalk proposed
ACCESS AND SITE CIRCULATION
A traffic study was completed for this site by Benshoof and Associates The analysis concluded
that one full access at Lyman Boulevard was insufficient for the projected traffic volumes for
this site therefore a right in right out access is required at Highway 101 This access is
approximately 420 feet south of the Highway 312 on ramp and 280 feet north of Lyman
Boulevard which is acceptable to MNDOT Improvements to Highway 101 at this location
include widening to a four lane divided roadway with left and right turn lanes at street
intersections and the access to Southwest Village
The developer shall pay 25 000 00 cash with the final plat this amount is half the cost for
furnishing and installing a traffic signal at Highway 101
Full access to the site will be from Lyman Boulevard and is approximately 460 feet east of
Highway 101 Turn lanes from Highway 101 to the Southwest Village entrance are included in
the MNDOT project
Most vehicles entering the site will use the full access at Lyman Boulevard and will exit onto
Highway 101 The southern access to the parking ramp aligns with the eastern access to the
townhome development The western access to the townhome development is approximately
300 feet away and aligns with the access to the two commercial retail buildings which also
serves as the second access to the parking ramp
All streets and driveways within this development will be privately owned and maintained
GRADING AND DRAINAGE
The MNDOT pond located in the south loop of the Highway 101 ramp has been sized to
accommodate runoff from this site The design of this pond assumed 100 impervious surface
post development from this site
A 20 foot wide drainage and utility easement centered over the pipe must be platted over the
storm sewer that crosses over the right in right out access at Highway 101
RETAINING WALLS
There are no retaining walls proposed on this site
308

UTILITIES
Eight inch diameter watermain and eight inch diameter sanitary sewer to serve the development
were installed under MNDOT s project The lateral utilities shall be privately owned and
maintained except for the sanitary sewer and watermain along Highway 101
The developer must verify that the proposed eight inch watermain will provide sufficient flow
for the proposed commercial and sprinkling uses on the site
The utility plan must show how the bus station and commercial buildings will be serviced
The developer will be responsible for extending lateral sewer and water service to the lots
therefore the sanitary sewer and water connection charges will be waived
Each new lot is subject to the sanitary sewer and water hookup charges These fees are collected
with the building permit and are based on the rates in effect at the time of building permit
application The party applying for the building permit is responsible for payment of these fees
LANDSCAPING

June 11 2007
Page 10
of locating trees within a parking area is to provide shade and reduce the heat island effect
associated with large expanses of pavement Pine trees will not have as great an impact in
alleviating this problem as shade trees
In the residential area staff recommends that additional trees should also be planted parallel to
the offstreet parking area

It should be noted that the nature of the pedestrian crossing in this area will be challenging The
roadways adjacent SouthWest Village are wide and will carry significant traffic loads Traffic
calming design elements should be incorporated into the site plan where appropriate Care must be
taken to ensure that on site pedestrian sidewalks and trail sections located within public right of
ways are constructed using low maintenance materials These walkways must also be designed to
permit convenient snowplowing and sweeping utilizing light truck and tractor mounted equipment

a storm water pond constructed with the development and paid for by the developer Runoff from Tanadoona
Drive and Dogwood Road will be conveyed to a storm water pond that will be constructed on the southwest
comer of the Camp Tanadoona property if a drainage easement can be obtained from the Camp Otherwise
an environmental manhole will be constructed in place of the pond
All homes are currently served by individual wells Three of the northern properties are served by a small
City owned and maintained lift station and forcemain The remaining properties are served by individual
septic systems
The proposed utility improvements would provide service to the proposed development at the southern end of
Dogwood Road The Arbors Gravity sanitary sewer would be installed within Dogwood Road and would
connect to the lift station at the southeast comer of Dogwood Road and Tanadoona Drive The lift station is
proposed to be replaced to handle the ultimate flows for this area The forcemain from the lift station to the
gravity sewer within Tanadoona Drive is also proposed to be replaced to convey the additional flow
Special assessments are proposed to be levied against benefiting properties for the improvements included in
this project The City will assess benefiting property owners based on the construction bid amount of the
improvements
The costs for the improvements are proposed to be assessed to the benefiting properties on a per unit basis
The development will be assessed 100 of the benefit from the project One Hundred Percent 100 of the
water and sanitary sewer improvements will be assessed back to the benefiting property owners Forty

Percent 40 of the roadway improvements will be assessed back to the existing benefiting property owners
consisting with the City s assessment practice
The proposed assessments are 18 652 63 per unit and 10 705 18 per unit for properties currently served by
the lift station The City is proposed to pay for 60 of the right of way and street costs and 100 of the
storm sewer improvement costs for the existing properties outside of the development
FINANCIAL SUMMARY
The construction contract amount is for 821 280 15 this does not include Bid Alternate 1 37 275 05
for the construction of the pond on the Camp Tanadoona property It is anticipated the Camp will provide
an easement to the City for the pond construction however the final documents have not been executed
Staff recommends awarding the base bid and issuing a change order for Bid Alternate 1 once the
easement has been secured The total project cost including engineering soil borings legal costs etc is
1 357 617 91 A summary ofthe project costs is as follows

Preliminary Plat to Subdivide 7 6 acres into 11 single family
lots and 1 outlot with a Variance to allow a 50 foot wide street
right of way LOTUS WOODS SUBDVISION Planning
Case 07 09
SUBJ
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The applicant is requesting preliminary plat approval to subdivide 7 6 acres into
3 single family lots and one outlot with a variance to allow a 50 foot wide right
of way Lotus Woods Subdivision The site is zoned Single Family Residential
RSF
ACTION REQUIRED
City Council approval requires a simple majority vote of City Council present
PLANNING COMMISSION SUMMARY
The Planning Commission held a public hearing on May 15 2007 to review the
proposed development The Planning Commission voted 6 1 to approve the
proposed development The sumrriary and verbatim minutes are located in item la
of the City Council packet
ISSUES AND QUESTIONS RAISED REGARDING THIS REQUEST
Issue Lotus Lake Homeowners Association sent an e mail requesting the city
enforce ordinances They are pleased with the amendment to the
wetland protection ordinance
Finding All ordinances are being enforced
Issue Lotus Lake Clean Water Organization sent an e mail containing several
issues They are as follows
City staff did an excellent job reviewing this subdivision There are a
lot of requirements being placed on the developer Please emphasize
that these requirements need to be well managed by both the developer
and the City inspectors The variance for a smaller road right of way is
a good thing as it does reduce the amount of impervious surface for the
storm sewer system to manage So we support the variance as the Lotus
Lake Clean Water Organization
The City of Chanhassen A growing community with clean lakes quality schools a charming downtown thriving businesses winding trails and beautiful parks A great place to live work and play370
Lotus Woods Preliminary Plat

Finding Staff will ensure that the conditions of approval are implemented
Issue Since there is an increase in impervious surface there will be an increase in loading to
Lotus Lake in general One third will go to the lake as it does today off the existing
homes on the shoreline One third will go to the outlot wetland being preserved as part
of the plans but it will have more water than it had in the past due to the impervious
surface additions The other one third will go to a new pond that drains into the
already stressed storm water system This system is planned to be analyzed for
capability and improvements next winter and improved in the summer of 2008 It is
currently an over stressed system and as stated in the report it is not known if the
system will be capable of handling this additional run off So even though the report
says infrastructure is capable of managing this this is actually unknown
Finding It is easiest to address this concern by subwatershed The first one third does drain to
the lake No additional volume or loading is anticipated within this subwatershed as a
result of this subdivision The second one third does drain to the wetlandnorthwest
portion of the site The additional volume of stormwater will be negligible due to
preserved tree cover and minimal grading within the subwatershed Most of the area
draining to the northwest is either rear yard area or park Due to infiltration
evaporation and use of water by trees and wetland plants offsite impacts will be
negligible The final one third drains to the pond in the southwest comer of the
site There are two concerns when considering stormwater The first is water quality
Lotus Woods is providing a pond which is properly sized for the watershed to treat
the water before it leaves the development Water quantity is the second concern The
discharge of the pond in the Lotus Woods development goes to the ditch in Triple
Crown Estates instead of into the pond The peak discharge rates for the new pond
will occur prior to peak discharge for the larger system thus the new pond will not
adversely impact existing conditions
Issue Lotus Lake Clean Water Organization Recommendation We recommend the city hold
off on this development until the complete storm water system is capable of handling
this additional run off being improved in 2008 plans Why add stress to an already
stressed storm water system and add that to Lotus Lake which already is an impaired
body of water We do support the development we just want it done responsibly
Finding Since Lotus Woods will not discharge to the larger system that is scheduled to be
redesigned in 2007 2008 it is not necessary to complete any additional city projects
before the Lotus Woods development is approved That being said future
improvements to the larger system could be designed to incorporate the proposed
storm sewer in Lotus Woods in the future if it is deemed beneficial to do so
Issue We would like to see rain gardens added to the design now and no curbs added so that
rain gardens can be included in the design to improve the water quality and infiltration
371
Lotus Woods Preliminary Plat
June 11 2007
Page 3
before adding the additional load to the storm water system We recommend that each
lot be designed to manage 90 of the storm water from the impervious surfaces as
nature would have done before the development takes place Now is the time to
include rain gardens in the grading plans to allow for proper management of the water
Later will be a lot more costly and it will not happen
Finding The City Council and City staff have recently discussed a number of infiltration
technologies their possibilities and their limitations within the City of Chanhassen
Currently staff has a number of concerns about such technologies including design
installation and long term maintenance Additionally staff is concerned about the
suitability of these systems in areas like Chanhassen that have high local water tables
and clay soils with low infiltration potential Staff agrees that rain gardens may be
effective in some situations but does not recommend them for this subdivision because
the City does not yet have the appropriate design standards installation guidelines and
maintenance protocols in place
Issue The size of the lots within this subdivision and in the rest of the City needs to be
larger
Finding The density of this subdivision is 14 units per acre gross 16 units per acre net The
land use plan guides the site as a low density site with a net density range of 1 2 4
units per acre The Lotus Woods subdivision has a density that is at the low end of the
range
Issue The proposed road is directed toward an existing house and the resident is concerned
that the lights will shine in the windows
Finding The developer understands the issue and is evaluating the feasibility of shifting the
road so as to not direct lights toward the existing house
Issue Do not install street lights
Finding Street lights provide many benefits to a neighborhood Some are listed below
a Deterrence of crime and the aid to police protection
b Increased night time safety on streets through enhanced visibility
c Improved sense of security and safety for pedestrians motorists and property
owners
d Reduced vandalism other criminal acts and damage to property
e Reduced personal property loss
Issue Traffic in the area is increasing and creating issues

Finding The engineering department is conducting traffic counts in this area to determine the
number of trips that are currently generated
Issue Are the lots adequately sized to accommodate a home Section 18 60 LOTS f of the
subdivision ordinance states Proposed house sizes shall be shown on the subdivision
plan and shall be designed to accommodate residents future house expansion e g
porches and accessory structures e g decks and patios as well as the driveway and
sidewalks to building entrances If house plans are not known then a 60 foot by 60
foot building pad and a 30 foot wide access driveway shall be used The maximum
permitted impervious surface shall be calculated for each lot and the permitted houses
and structures shall be limited to those sizes
Finding The original plans showed three house types Additionally staff directed the applicant
to adjust the property lines to show that a 60x60 house pad can fit on the lots The
compliance table has been revised accordingly The hard surface coverage calculations
are based on the three house types shown on sheet 2 of 12 of the plans All proposed
hard surfaces are within the ordinance Staff has also tabulated maximum permitted
site coverage for each lot at 25 see compliance table on page 14 of the staff report
RECOMMENDA TION
Staff recommends adoption of the motion approving the preliminary plat with a variance as
specified in the staff report dated May 15 2007

PROPOSAL SUMMARY
The applicant is proposing to subdivide 7 6 acres into 11 single family lots and 1 outlot The
property is zoned RSF Single Family Residential District The site is located south of Fox Hill Drive
east ofCarver Beach Road north of Big Woods Drive and west of Lotus Lake and contains three single
family homes that are proposed to remain Access to the site is proposed off of existing and future
residential streets All existing right of way in the area has a width that ranges between 40 and 50
feet The City Code requires a 60 foot wide right of way The applicant is requesting a variance to
allow a 50 foot wide right of way This will allow this development to blend in with surrounding
streets The three lots on the lake will keep their existing homes

All lots meet the minimum lot area width and depth requirements of the zoning ordinance with an
average lot area of 24 619 square feet
Staffhas been working with owners ofthe property and their engineer for some time Initial
discussions began when the property to the south Big Woods was presented to the City for
development As a condition of approval of the Big Woods development the developer stubbed
proposed Lotus Woods Drive and installed a sign that alerted future homeowners in the Big Woods
Development that the road will be extended in the future
The current plans have gone through numerous revisions such as dedicating park land in lieu of park
fees reducing grading drainage etc
Staff is recommending approval of the subdivision with a variance with conditions outlined in the
staff report
PRELIMINARY PLAT
The applicant is proposing to subdivide a 7 6 acre site into 11 single family lots and 1 outlot The
average lot size is 24 619 square feet with a resulting gross density of 14 units per acre and a net
density of 1 6 units per acre
All of the proposed lots meet the minimum area width and depth requirements of the Zoning
Ordinance There is one outlot shown on the plat Outlot A contains a wetland and a park land
area It will be dedicated to the City
Staff directed the applicant to prepare a hard surface coverage analysis for each proposed lot
Current plans Sheet 2 of 12 show House Type A on Lots 5 and 6 Block 1 Based on hard
surface coverage analysis the house types on Lots 5 and 6 Block 1 must be modified from House
Type A to House Type B

The site is heavily wooded The existing woods consist mainly oflarge mature sugar maples
with a mix of basswood oak and ash It is a healthy forest with little to no invasive species It is
due to this wooded nature that the Parks and Recreation Commission recommend that Outlot A
be taken for public park purposes
Development of the overall site should pay special attention to preserving large groups of trees in
rear and side yards where possible
Revisions will be required We are recommending that the subdivision be approved with conditions
outlined in the staff report
Staff notes that the proposal is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and generally consistent
with the Zoning Ordinance
WETLANDS
One Manage 1 wetland basin exists on site Kjolhaug Environmental Services Company
delineated the wetlands in September 2006
Wetland 1 is aType 1 wetland located in the northwest portion of the site The wetland is
dominated by reed canary grass with green ash American elm beggar ticks and duckweed No
impact is proposed to this basin It is proposed to be located entirely within Outlot A
On May 14 2007 the City Council will be reviewing ordinance amendments that will impact
this subdivision The amendments are part of a wetland reclassification that was undertaken as
part of the City s Surface Water Management Plan SWMP update The ordinance amendment
involves changes to wetland buffer and wetland buffer setback requirements The setback
requirements will be applied at the time that building permits are submitted The building plans
must meet these requirements The ordinance amendment will require aminimum 25 foot
wetland buffer and a minimum 30 foot wetland buffer setback for principal structures total
setback of 55 feet Accessory structures will be required to be set back a minimum of 15 feet
from the wetland buffer edge The plans for Lotus Woods should show these new buffer and
setback requirements
A wetland buffer 25 feet in width must be maintained around all Manage 1 wetlands All
wetlands and wetland buffer areas should be protected by silt fence during grading Wetland buffer
areas should be preserved surveyed and staked in accordance with the City s wetland ordinance
The applicant must install wetland buffer edge signs under the direction of City staff before
construction begins and must pay the City 20 per sign Principal structures must maintain a
setback of at least 30 feet from the wetland buffer edge Accessory structures must maintain a
setback of at least 15 feet from the wetland buffer edge The wetland buffer setbacks should be
shown on the plans

the City Code Any existing and proposed docks on the subject properties must meet the
requirements of City Code Chapter 6 Article 2
SURFACE WATER MANAGEMENT
Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan SWPPP
The SWPPP must be revised to address all items that are unchecked in the Carver SWCD
Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan Checklist attached to the April 11 2007 letter to the
City from the Carver SWCD
Erosion Control
Stable emergency overflows are needed for the proposed pond on site The emergency
overflows should be clearly labeled on the plan and a detail must be provided
All riprap fabric at the flared end section should be installed within 24 hours of flared end
section installation
The ditch section west of Carver Beach Road that receives stormwater from the stormwater pond
must be stable prior to receiving discharge from the site
Erosion control blanket should be installed on all slopes greater than or equal to 3 1 All exposed
soil areas should have temporary erosion protection or permanent cover year round according to
the following table of slopes and time frames
Type of Slope
Steeper than 3 1
10 1 to 3 1
Flatter than 10 1

Sediment Control
Manholes with two foot sumps should be installed as the last road accessible structures prior to
discharge into the stormwater pond This will help to prolong the maintenance interval ofthe
proposed stormwater pond
Chanhassen Type 2 Heavy Duty silt fence is needed around all wetlands streams creeks bluffs
and ravines Chanhassen Type 1 silt fence should be used around the remaining areas
A temporary sediment basin should be constructed prior to disturbing upslope areas The areas
of temporary sediment basins should be labeled on the plan A temporary outlet structure e g a
perforated riser and rock cone is needed for the pond A detail should be provided
Inlet controls are needed for all inlets throughout the project and should be installed within 24
hours of inlet installation prior to casting Filter fabric held down by steel plates with 12 inches
of inch rock over each cover may be used Once casting of inlets takes place inlet controls
must be installed within 24 hours Inlet protection must be maintained on a regular basis For all
inlet protection devices details should be provided in the plan and in the SWPPP
Street cleaning ofsoil tracked onto public streets should include daily street scraping and street
sweeping as needed
SURFACE WATER MANAGEMENT FEE
Because of the impervious surface associated with this development the water quality fees for this
proposed development are based on single family residential development rates of 1 900 acre
Based on the proposed developed area ofapproximately 6 9 acres the water quality fees associated
with this project are 13 108
The SWMP has established a connection charge for the different land uses based on an average
citywide rate for the installation of water quantity systems This cost includes land acquisition
proposed SWMP culverts open channels and storm water ponding areas for runoff storage Single
family residential developments have a connection charge of 3 1 00 per developable acre This
results in awater quantity fee of approximately 21 388 for the proposed development
The applicant will be credited for water quality where NURP basins are provided to treat runoff
from the site This will be determined upon review of the ponding and storm sewer calculations
Credits may also be applied to the applicant s SWMP fees for oversizing in accordance with the
SWMP or the provision ofoutlet structures No credit will be given for temporary pond areas

At this time the estimated total SWMP fee due payable to the City at the time of final plat
recording is 31 996 00
OTHER AGENCIES
The applicant must apply for and obtain permits from the appropriate regulatory agencies i e
Riley Purgatory BluffCreek Watershed District Minnesota Pollution Control Agency and comply
with their conditions ofapproval
GRADING AND DRAINAGE
The 7 6 acre site is bordered by Fox Hill Drive to the north Lotus Lake to the East Big Woods
Subdivision to the south and Carver Beach Road to the west There are three existing houses
four accessory structures and three drives on the site The existing houses will remain along
with two accessory structures The accessory structures near Lotus Woods Drive will need to be
removed A plan will be needed to allow the existing homeowners access to their properties
until the completion of construction The existing driveways west of Lotus Woods Drive will
need to be removed upon completion of Lotus Woods Drive
The high point ofthe site is near the center ofthe project and divides the site into four main
pieces Approximately 35 ofthe site drains towards Lotus Lake 10 drains to catch basins on
the east side ofthe Big Woods Development 30 drains to the ditch in Triple Crown Estates
and 25 drains north on Carver Beach Road The hydrologic calculations are complete A
copy of the rational method calculations and delineation will be needed for the sizing of the
storm sewer
The on site pond may not discharge to the pond in Triple Crown Estates west of Carver Beach
Road because the Triple Crown Estates pond is not sized for the additional stormwater The
proposed on site pond discharges to the roadside ditch along the west side of Carver Beach
Road which is acceptable although not optimal The storm sewer under Big Woods Boulevard
will need to be directionally drilled
Over time the City has become aware of issues with stormwater and erosion in this area both
within the stormwater pond and downstream between the pond and Lotus Lake In 2005 2006
erosion caused a blowout of the stretch of creek east of Carver Beach Road This compromised
the cover over the sanitary sewer in that area which was remedied in 2006 In order to improve
the stormwater system in this area the City is proposing a stormwater improvement project in
2007 2008 to assess the issues and devise a solution Analysis ofthe drainage area has not been
completed and the anticipated improvements are unknown at this time It would be better if the
proposed development could take advantage of the anticipated stormwater improvement project
but it is unknown at this time if the city project will be able to accommodate the development
drainage Regional ponding is a preferable solution for stormwater issues because it improves
sediment removal efficiently and minimizes future maintenance needs The use of a regional

pond for treatment of stormwater for this development would also free up land and potentially
improve the developer s ability to preserve trees and minimize retaining walls
The grading plan will need to be revised Lot 2 and Lot 4 Block 1 elevations need to be revised
to show correct ground elevations if they are indeed walkouts The slopes on the driveways are
shown but it appears that Lot 6 and Lot 8 Block 1 exceed the 10 maximum The grading plan
is hard to follow due to not having enough contour labels and because the tree layer overwhelms
the drawing
Spot elevations around each intersection are required to ensure that the curb line has a minimum
of 5 slope
The lowest openings of houses must be three feet above the ordinary high water level or one foot
above the emergency overflow
Private driveway grades shall not be less than 2 or exceed 10
Ground ie non paved surface grades shall not be less than 2
Emergency overflow locations and elevations must be shown on the plan
An easement is required from the appropriate property owner for any off site grading
Installation of the manhole on Lot 1 ofBig Woods on Lotus Lake will need a temporary
construction easement If importing or exporting material for development of the site is
necessary the applicant will be required to supply the City with detailed haul routes
RETAINING WALLS
The proposed retaining walls are as follows
Location Length Maximum Height
approximate approximate
Lot 7 Block 1 This retaining wall has two tiers
1 sl tier 160 feet 4 feet
2no tier Total elevation difference from top to
bottom 10 feet 8 for wall and 2 feet of 120 feet 4 feet
ground
There is an existing retaining wall in the southwest corner of the site This wall will be removed
before the construction ofthe pond
381
Lotus Woods Subdivision
Planning Case 07 09
May 15 2007
Page 9 of21
Building permits are required for all retaining walls four feet tall or higher and must be designed
by a Structural Engineer registered in the State of Minnesota
UTILITIES
The developer proposes to extend lateral sanitary sewer watermain and storm sewer within the
development All utilities within the right of way shall be publicly owned and maintained
Proposed watermain will extend from the existing watermain stub off of Big Woods Boulevard
and loop to the existing watermain in Fox Hill Drive The proposed watermain will have a total
length of 450 linear feet Due to the alignment of the watermain off of Fox Hill Drive it appears
that the connection cannot take place under traffic The connection on Fox Hill Drive must be
wet tapped The Big Woods Boulevard connection must connect to the stub provided and take
place under traffic Sanitary sewer for Lots 1 4 Block 1 will extend off of Big Woods
Boulevard A stub was provided during the Big Woods Subdivision which should allow this
connection to be completed under traffic
Utility plans show both plan view and profiles of all proposed utilities sanitary sewer water
and storm lines Actual elevations of existing utilities shall be verified for accuracy The utility
services are not shown on the plans The services will need to be shown along with information
for connection Lot 5 Block 1 did not receive a service stub during the development of Big
Woods and will need to enter the roadway for access to the sewer and water Lots 7 and 8 Block
1 along Carver Beach Road appear to have service stubs provided by the regional sewer and
water project in 1975
There is existing sanitary sewer and watermain along Lotus Lake The sanitary sewer and
easement is shown on the plans The location ofthe watermain and the watermain easement will
need to be determined
Each new lot is subject to sanitary sewer and water hookup charges The 2007 trunk hookup
charge is 1 669 for sanitary sewer and 4 485 for watermain Sanitary sewer and watermain
hookup fees may be specially assessed against the parcel at the time of building permit issuance
All of these charges are based on the number of SAC units assigned by the Met Council and are
due at the time ofbuilding permit issuance
The developer will be responsible for extending lateral sewer and water service to the lots
therefore the sanitary sewer and water connection charges will be waived The assessments for
the connections on Carver Beach Road have already been paid
All of the utility improvements are required to be constructed in accordance with the City s latest
edition of Standard Specifications and Detail Plates The applicant is also 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 The applicant must be aware that all public utility improvements will require

a preconstruction meeting before building permit issuance Permits from the appropriate
regulatory agencies will be required including the MPCA Dept of Health Carver County and
the Watershed District
EASEMENTS
There is an existing sanitary sewer and a watermain easement along Lotus Lake This sanitary
sewer is currently located within a 20 foot easement that needs to be revised to 30 feet to ensure
the maintenance of this line The actual location of the watermain and the watermain easement
will need to be shown on the plans to see if sufficient easements cover the watermain
Each lot is shown with the required lO foot front drainage and utility easement and 5 foot rear
and side drainage and utility easement The pond and wetland are also covered by a drainage
and utility easement Additional drainage and utility easements are covering the front of Lots 4
6 Block 1 for future maintenance of the proposed storm sewer
STREETS
Access to the site will be provided by Fox Hill Drive Carver Beach Road Big Woods
Boulevard and the proposed Lotus Woods Drive The developer has provided plans showing the
staff requested additional right of way of 30 feet along Carver Beach Road 10 feet along Fox
Hill Drive up to Lotus Woods Drive and 5 feet along Fox Hill Drive from Lotus Woods Drive to
Lotus Trail The reason for changing the width to only 5 feet of additional right of way along
Fox Hill Drive is so that the setbacks for the existing house near Lotus Lake can still meet city
code
Lotus Woods Drive is proposed to be a 28 foot back to back road within a 50 foot right of way
The City agreed to the variance in 2006 when the Eidsness property was split The proposed
section of road matches the Big Woods Development and the surrounding area Lotus Woods
Drive will be publicly owned and maintained The street must be built to a seven ton design and
utilize a maximum grade of7 The sight distance for turning on Fox Hill Drive must be
verified Upon completion of the public street the applicant shall submit a set of as built plans
signed by a professional civil engineer
PARKS AND TRAILS
The proposed plat combines four separate parcels ofland currently best described as a woodlot
allowing for the orderly subdivision of the entire parcel into 11 single family lots Eight ofthe lots
are located in Block 1 and will be marketed as new home sites The remaining three lots comprising
Block 2 are homes to three of the four owners and are located on Lotus Lake Outlot A has been set
aside at the request of staff as a means ofpreserving a small intact section of the woodlot

right of way to construct sidewalks and or trails in the area Carver Beach Road serves as a main
transportation corridor in the neighborhood for both vehicles and pedestrians The one sidewalk
mentioned is located on Carver Beach Road starting at Carver Beach Park and travels west to Powers
Boulevard In addition to this sidewalk an important trail connector is located at the terminus of
Carver Beach Road linking pedestrians to Big Woods Boulevard Kerber Pond Park and south to the
downtown area
Outlot A
The Park and Recreation Commission has the choice of recommending the City Council accept cash
park fees or land dedication as a condition of approval for the Lotus Woods Subdivision The cash
park fees required ofthis application as submitted are 63 800 or 5 800 per lot It is staff s
recommendation that the Commission seek land dedication in lieu of cash park fees as a means of
preserving some of the woodlot character that currently exists on this site The location of this outlot
at the intersection of Carver Beach Road and Fox Hill Drive will serve as a landmark for the new
residents In addition the larger neighborhood and community will view this dedication as a worthy
investment in preserving the unique character or Carver Beach
Staff s request of the applicant was to maximize the size of the undisturbed area of tree preservation
on the comer The maximum dedication ofland allowed by ordinance is one acre for every 75
people For 11 single family lots with 3 5 persons per home 22 361 square feet 0 51 acres of park
dedication is required A previous layout of Outlot A contained less upland area than required by
ordinance
On April 24 2007 the Park and Recreation Commission visited this property prior to their regular
meeting The commissioners discussed their positions on the proposed application At the
conclusion of the discussion the Park Commission tabled action on the Lotus Woods subdivision
request to allow staff time to discuss with the property owners and engineers their recommended
approach towards dedicating land in lieu ofpark fees in an area estimated at 22 475 square feet
On April 30 staff met with the
applicant and agreed upon the
configuration of the 22 475 square
foot Outlot A Staff also confirmed
that no grading be conducted within
the Outlot and that the border of the
Outlot be identified with appropriate
slgnage
As drawn Outlot A currently contains
37 530 square feet with 8 050 ofthat

Re Request for Financial Commitment by MnDOT
Proj ct 1 MN 101 from Lyman Boulevard to Pioneer Trail PW067F4
Dear Pat
The City of Chanhassen in conjunction with Carver County and the Minnesota Department of
TranspOltation completed a conidor scoping and environmental screening study for MN101 in
May 2007 The study identified long term transp0l1ation improvements to address safety
capacity and connectivity issues south of new TH 212 The limits of the study were the
Carver Scott County line on the south end to Lyman Boulevard CSAH 18 on the north end
which is where the 4 lane section will end upon completion of the new TH 212 freeway
improvements A range of alternatives and a scoping process were developed and applied to
evaluate the alternatives Environmental screening was peIformed to identify natural and social
environmental issues that influence selection alternatives and to identify issues that may require
further study in future phases of project development Also a technical memorandum was drafted
that identified the area north of Pioneer Trail as an independent utility allowing project
development to proceed prior to further environmental review of the area south of Pioneer Trail
The con idor has several major safety problems related to steep grades sharp curves and severe
undulations in the vertical profile Inadequate sight distances along the con idor create blind
public street driveway and trail intersections Run off the road and loss of control type
crashes are prevalent throughout the corridor Intersection and congestion related crashes are
prevalent at the Old US Highway 212 US 212 and Trunk Highway 101 intersection These
issues contribute to overall crash and severity rates that are more than three times greater than
those experienced on other rural two lane roadways in the Metro area
MN 101 is classified as a minor arterial roadway New US 212 is being constructed with an
interchange at MN 101 MN 101 between the Minnesota River and New U S 212 is a logical
and direct link that would serve travel demands to and from the heart of the Twin Cities
Metropolitan Area While Old U S 212 serves a regional transportation route today its
effectiveness is hampered by traffic congestion in the commercial districts of Eden Prairie and
Chaska MN 101 between the communities of Shakopee and Chanhassen will continue to serve
as one of only a few options available to cross the Minnesota River
The purpose of the proposed project is to address safety and long term capacity needs for the
cOlTidor in addition it addresses some regional capacity deficiencies
The MN101 corridor is included in the 2008 2030 Transp0l1ation System Plan TSP under
Jurisdictional Transfer in the constrained plan If STP funds are approved construction will take
place in 2011 The project will not adversely affect MnDot s trunk highway operation but
remove a minor arterial roadway from MnDot jurisdiction
Proiect Staging The corridor has been divided into manageable independent projects for
construction The area north of Pioneer Trail is the first project proposed to be constructed

Project 1 Construction would tie into the roadway that is cunently being constructed by
the 212 project south of Lyman Boulevard and extend south through the intersection of
Pioneer Trail This segment is the next logical part of the conidor to be improved The
total length of Project 1 is 0 75 miles Approximately 6 5 acres of right of way will need
to be acquired for the widening and safety improvements However most of the land is
anticipated to be dedicated through new development plats
Project 2 Reconstructionwidening between Pioneer Trail and US 212 would take place
after Project 1 The reconstructionwidening between US 212 to the Scott County border
improvements to the bluff alignment with fixes to the Y intersection would be included
in this project
Funding Plan for Proiect 1 No funding has yet been secured for the improvements to
the corridor It is expected that Federal State and local funds will be needed to finance
the improvements
