PROPOSED MOTION:
The Chanhassen Planning Commission recommends that the City Council approve the proposed amendment to
Chapter 20 concerning pervious pavement system design standards.
SUMMARY OF REQUEST
City Ordinance prescribes the use of the City of Chanhassen Standard Specifications and Detail Plates for the design of
pervious pavement systems. To date, the adoption of detail plates and standard specifications for pervious pavement
systems into City Standards has not occurred.
As ICPI has already established and continually maintains and updates industry standards and detail plates for pervious
pavement systems, staff believes it would be prudent to utilize ICPI’s resources. This is similar to how the city utilizes
MnDOT Specifications for construction projects or Ten State Standards for water and sewer specifications.
A full analysis can found in the attached staff report.

SUMMARY:
City Ordinance prescribes the use ofthe City of Chanhassen Standard Specifications and Detail
Plates for the design of pervious pavement systems. To date, the adoption of detail plates and
standard specifications for pervious pavement systems into City Standards has not occurred.
One reason for this is that the intent and use of City Standards is to create universal design criteria
for the implementation and construction of public works projects. In addition, these standards are
typically utilized for the build-out of infrastructure intended for the city to own and maintain, or
private projects that have an impact on public rights-of-way. As pervious pavement systems are not
an adopted practice for public projects. it was never necessary to have such City Standards.
Along with requiring that designs meet City Standards, City Ordinance also requires pervious
pavement systems be designed to the lnterlocking Concrete Pavement Institute (ICPI) standards,
which houses over 60 details and multiple specifications for pervious pavement systems. In
conjunction with these resources, ICPI also supplies information on finding certified installers,
distributors, manufactures, suppliers; a database oftechnical papers on pervious pavement systems;
other technical resources such as construction tolerances and recommendations; and technical
specifi cation guidelines designed for govemment agencies.

ISSUE:
City Ordinance requires engineered pervious pavement systems to be designed in accordance with
the current version of the City of Chanhassen Standard Specifications and Detail Plates (City
Standards). Currently, the city has no set standards.
Furthermore, there are many different types of pervious pavement systems. For example, there are
pervious pavements, porous pavemenls, pervious pavers, plastic/concrete grids, and amended soils,
just to name a few. Because of the plethora of systems, it would take considerable resources for staff
to keep City Standards up to date with best practices for every type.

Given the above difficulties and the fact that the ICPI maintains an extensive catalog ofpervious
pavement designs, which are already referenced by City Ordinance, staff proposes removing the
Ordinance's reference to City Standards. This will eliminate the need for the city to develop and
maintain a redundant set of standards.
Pervious pavement systems are suitable for a wide variety of private residential, commercial and
industrial applications. However, these systems require both proper installation and continual
maintenance to function properly. Staff addressed maintenance concems by requiring owners enter
into a maintenance agreement with the City, and addressed proper installation by requiring they meet
both City Standards and ICPI design standards. As staff worked to develop City Standards for
pervious pavement systems, it was determined that adopting independent City Standards would be
an unnecessary duplication ofthe work already done by ICPI.
In addition, City Sundards are generally reserved for the engineered specifications and details for
publicly owned infrastructure, thus, staff believes that it would be onerous to continually update and
track best practices and standards for private systems. Additionally, when it was investigated to
augment staff time by having a consultant develop these standards, it became clear that developing
and maintaining appropriate standards for the various types of pervious pavement systems would be
cost prohibitive. An initial quote for producing one detail plate specific to pervious pavers was
$5,000.00.
As ICPI has already established and continually maintains and updates industry standards and detail
plates for pervious pavement systems, staffbelieves it would be prudent to utilize ICPI's resources.
This is similar to how the city utilizes MnDOT Specifications for construction projects or Ten State
Standards for water and sewer specifications.
Staff recommends Altemative 2. Staff believes that rather than having two design standards for
pervious pavement systems (one by ICPI and one by the city), it would be more reasonable to have
only one.

The proposed amended pervious pavement ordinance would read as follows:
Sec. 20-921. - Pervious pavement.
Properly designed, installed, and maintained pervious pavements have the capacity to allow for
stormwater detention and/or infiltration. When not properly designed, installed, and maintained
pervious pavements fail to facilitate the detention and/or infiltration of stormwater. Additionally,
pervious pavements contribute to the creation ofheat islands and do not provide the same surface
water management benefrts as native vegetative cover. For these reasons, it is necessary to regulate
the lot coverage, desigrr, installation, and maintenance of these systems.
(l) Lot coverage.' Pervious pavements are considered to constitute lot coverage; however, when
built to the standards espoused in this section they do not constitute impervious surfaces.
Systems not built to the standards espoused in this section are considered to constitute
impervious surfaces.
(2) Localion restricl ions :
a. Pervious pavements may not be installed in areas where trash or garbage receptacles
will be stored.
(3) Design and installarion:
a. A building permit is required for the instillation ofpervious pavement systems.
b. Pervious pavement systems must be designed to provide for rate and volume control
for the first half-inch oftreatment area @
Treatment area includes the total
square footage ofthe pervious pavement system plus the total square footage of
impervious surface draining directly to the pervious pavement system.
c. To meet the city's definition of pervious pavement, the system must: 1) be designed in
compliance with standards established by the Interlocking Concrete Pavement Institute
(ICPI); 2) be installed by an ICPI certified installer; and 3) be designed to meet or
exceed the standards listed in paragraph (3)b.
d. The city engineer may permit pervious pavement technologies other than permeable
interlocking concrete pavers, so long as the city engineer determines: I ) they are
fimctionally equivalent or better; 2) the system is desigred in compliance with
accepted guidelines and is installed by an appropriately certified installer; and 3) the
system will meet or exceed the standards listed in paragraph (3)b.
(4) Maintenance:
a. The owner ofa pervious paver system must enter into a maintenance agreement with
the city to ensure the system performs as designed in perpetuity. This agreement must
conform to the manufactures guidelines, and stipulate the frequency and type of
maintenance to be performed,

Subject Amendment to Chanhassen City Code to Clarify Language Governing Recreational Beach Lots
Section PUBLIC HEARINGS Item No: B.2.
Prepared By MacKenzie YoungWalters, Associate
Planner
File No:
PROPOSED MOTION:
The Chanhassen Planning Commission recommends that the City Council approve the proposed amendment to
Chapter 20 concerning Recreational Beachlots.
SUMMARY OF REQUEST
Several sections of the Conditional Use Permit (CUP) standards for recreational beach lots, particularly the section
governing overnight storage and mooring, are poorly structured. In its current state, it is difficult to read and hard to
determine what provisions apply and in what circumstances they apply. The city frequently receives calls from HOAs
interested in amending their CUP or clarifying their understanding of what is and is not permitted, and the confusing
structure of this section of the Code can sometimes exacerbate rather than resolve their confusion. This section also
contains an outofdate reference that should be updated to continually reference the most recently adopted
comprehensive plan. Finally, this section outlines a policy allowing adjacent lots under a common ownership to
consolidate their docks that is confusing and unnecessary.
Staff proposes to rewrite sections of the code to clarify the intent of the portions that routinely cause confusion. The
substance and nature of the provisions governing recreational beach lots should not be changed other than updating the
outofdate reference and removing unnecessary provisions, but phrasing and organization should be reworked in the
hopes of creating a more userfriendly section.

SUMMARY
RELEVANT CITY CODE
Planning Commission
Standards for Beach Lots
November 19,2019
Page 2
Ordinance 80, passed in 1986, established the framework ofour existing zoning code and lists
recreational beach los as a conditional use within residential districts. No standards, other than
those generally goveming conditional uses, were put in place, nor was the term recreational
beach lot defined.
Ordinance 80-A, passed in 1987, defined the term "Recreational beach lot" and established limits
for urban and rural recreational beach lots.
Ordinance 83, passed in 1988, recodified the City Code into its current organizational structure
and adopted standards goveming recreational beach lots. These standards have not been
significantly changed since their adoption.
Beach lots with non-conforming use permits tend to be older, often created by provisions within
a subdivision's development contract or, more rarely, they are the result ofa use ofthe parcel
predating city ordinances. Between 1992 and 1993, city staff undertook a project to determine
what rights these prop€rties had and to determine the extent of their non-conformities. For those
properties, a non-conforming use permit was issued by the City Council to formalize how they
were being used and to prevent any expansion ofthe non-conformity beyond its verifiable
historic level.
Staffis often contacted by homeowners associations or property owners that have recreational
beach lot rights granted by non-conforming use permits or conditional use permits to ask if they
can modifo or expand their beach lot. Many times, they are interested in adding docks or
increasing the amount of ovemight watercraft storage on the site. Due to the way portions of the
existing ordinance run together and the fact that related provisions are spread throughout the
section, they often struggle to decipher what is and is not permitted. The difficulty in interpreting
this section also means it is challenging for staff to help them understand what the ordinance
permits.
Stalfs intent is to clearly break up and outline the ovemight storage provisions, simpliff
language and sentence structure, and cluster related provisions to make this portion ofthe Code
more accessible to residents and assist staffin explaining how the ordinance applies to a given
2
Ordinance 377, passed in 2004, moved the standard goveming recreational beach lots to section
20-266 (ftom section 20-263), and removed the 1987 date from the "grandfathered clause" in 20-
266(12).lt also fixed a formatting error where one of the subsections was not properly
numbered.
ANALYSIS
There are approximately 26 recreational beach lots in the city. About halfofthese beach lots
operate under a conditional use permit and the other half operate under a non-conforming use
permit. Typically, the beach lots operating under a conditional use permit were created after
1986 and they meet the requirements ofthe existing conditionals use permit ordinance.

property. Staffdoes not intend to substantively change the ordinance. Since all recreational
beach lots are govemed by either a non-conforming use permit or a conditional use permit, any
alteration to the content ofthis section would either create a legal non-conformity or require the
amendment of the various beach lot permits. This would become especially problematic for the
beach lots operating under non-conforming use permits, as large amounts of time, research,
written affidavits, inspections, and, in some cases, legal action was required to establish those
permits. Additionally, many HOAs have painstakingly created systems to allow for fair use of
their beach lots and any alteration ofthe standards goveming these lots would have a significant
impact on them and their members. Finally, recreational beach lots can have significant impact
on other lake users and altering their standards without extensive public input would be
inappropriate.
Staffis proposing two minor changes to the content ofthe existing ordinance. Currently, the
ordinance references the 2000 Metropolitan Urban Services Area (MUSA) with language
indicating that it anticipates this line will be expanded. Currently, the city's comprehensive plan
shows the 2020 MUSA line encompassing the city and this has been the case since the last
comprehensive plan was adopted. Staffproposes amending the recreation beach lot ordinance to
reference the MUSA established by the most recently adopted comprehensive plan. This update
will remove any confusion caused by the outdated reference and remove the need to update the
ordinance every time a new comprehensive plan is adopted.
The other change is removing the subsection that reads:
'No dock shall encroach upon any dock set-back zone, provided, however, that the owner ofany
two abutting lakeshore sites may erect one common dock within the dock setback zone
appurtenant to the abutting lakeshore sites, ifthe common dock is the only dock on the two
lakeshore sites and if the dock otherwise conforms with the provisions ofthis chapter."
Not only is this provision confusing and poorly constructed, it does not serve a function.
Theoretically, this provision would allow a homeowners associated (HOA) that owned two
adjacent parcels of riparian land to consolidate both parcel's docking rights into a single dock
located on the lot line. In practice, the city would not consent to the creation ofa new subdivision
where the association beach lot was spread over two adjacent parcels and there would be no
benefit to the HOA in having two parcels rather than one. Additionally, in a situation where the
HOA did own two parcels and wanted to place the dock on the lot line, staffcould
administratively create a zoning lot to allow this placement under the code's other provisions.
Finally, staffis aware of only one existing beach lot that is comprised of two parcels, and this
beach lot is a non-conforming use that would not be impacted by this change. Staff proposes
rewriting this subsection to read, "No dock shall encroach upon any dock set-back zone."
l)Do nothing. Staffis experienced at reading the ordinance in its current form, and has
documentation of previous interpretations to support its application of the ordinance.

ALTERNATIVES
2)Amend Sec. 20-266 to improve readability, update the out-of-date reference, and remove
unnecessary provisions.
Staff recommends Altemative 2. The proposed amendments would read as follows:
Sec. 20-266. - Recreational beach lots.
lntenl. he city recognizes that the use of
lakeshore bymCtiple-pa*ies as a recreational beach lot may be an intensive use of
lakeshore that may present conflicts with neighboring uses of lakeshore or the use of
other lakeshore on the same lake or the lake itself. Further, beach lots may generate
complaints ifthey are not maintained to the same standards as single-family lakeshore
lots. Therefore, the city requires the following conditions for recreational beach lots, in
addition to such other conditions that may be prescribed in the permit:
(1) Recreational beach lots shall have at least 200 feet of lake frontage.
(2) For purposes ofthis subsection, the following terms shall mean those beach lots
which are located either within (urban) or outside (rural) the Year2000
Metropolitan Urban Service Area boundary as depicted in the most recently
adopted comprehensive plan.
(3)
a. Urban recreationol beach /or.'At least 80 percent ofthe dwelling units,
which have appurtenant rights ofaccess to any recreational beach lot, shall
be located within 1,000 feet ofthe recreational beach lot.
b. Rural recreational beach /ot: A maximum of 50 dwelling units (including
riparian lots) shall be permitted appurtenant rights ofaccess to the
recreational beach lot. Upon extension of the Metropolitan Urban Service
Area boundary into the rural are4 the urban recreational beach lot
standards will apply.
Except as specifically provided herein, no structure, ice fishing house, cnmper,
trailer, tent, recreational vehicle, shelters (except gazebos) shall be erected,
maintained, or stored upon any recreational beach lot. For the purpose of this
section, a gazebo shall be defined as, "a freestanding roofed structure which is
open on all sides."
No boat, trailer, motor vehicle, including but not limited to cars, trucks,
motorcycles, motorized mini-bikes, all-terrain vehicles or snowmobiles shall be
driven upon or parked upon any recreational beach lot.
No recreational beach lot shall be used for ovemight camping.

Subject Amendment to Chanhassen City Code to Require Traffic Studies as Part of Site Plan Reviews

Prepared By MacKenzie YoungWalters, Associate
Planner
File No:
PROPOSED MOTION:
The Chanhassen Planning Commission recommends that the City Council approve the proposed amendment to
Chapter 20 concerning site plan traffic impacts.
SUMMARY OF REQUEST
As the city builds out, there are fewer undeveloped sites available. This, combined with the fact that some of the
buildings in the city’s older developments are nearing the end of their functional life span, means that there is increased
interest in redeveloping existing sites. Many times this redevelopment takes the form of a new use that has the potential
to generate more traffic than the preexisting use. In some cases, these developments may increase traffic to the point
where the level of service of the surrounding roads is decreased.
The best way to determine the impact of a development on the surrounding roads is to conduct a traffic study; however,
the city’s site plan application requirements and review standards do not require applicant’s to provide a traffic study.
Staff is proposing amending this section of the City Code to require the inclusion of traffic studies with site plan
applications when requested by staff and to add maintaining an acceptable road system level of service to the evaluation
standards. This change would ensure staff can obtain sufficient information to evaluate the impact of proposed
developments on the city’s road system and that the City Council can act to protect the public interest in situations
where a proposal will unacceptably degrade the road system’s level of service.

SUBJ:
The section ofthe City Code that regulates site plans does not require a traffic study or explicitly list
traffic impacts under its evaluation standards.
SUMMARY
As the city builds out, there are fewer undeveloped sites available. This combined with the fact that
some of the buildings in the city's older developments are nearing the end oftheir functional life
span means that there is increased interest in redeveloping existing sites. Many times this
redevelopment takes the form ofa new use that has the potential to generate more traffrc than the
preexisting use. In some cases, these developments may increase traffic to the point where the level
of service ofthe surrounding roads is decreased.
The best way to determine the impact of a development on the surrounding roads is to conduct a
traffic study; however, the city's site plan application requirements and review standards do not
require applicant's to provide a traffic study. Staff is proposing amending this section of the City
Code to require the inclusion oftraffic studies with site plan applications when requested by staff
and to add maintaining an acceptable road system level of service to the evaluation standards. This

built environment. To accomplish these goals, the City Code specifies what materials should be
submitted with a site plan application and the standards that a site and building plan should meet.
Despite the fact that the ordinance's intent statement implies that offsite impacts on neighboring
properties and traffic should be addressed, the application requirements and standards within the site
plan ordinance are very focused on the site itself. This intemal orientation is because applicants only
have control over property they own, so the review process fiocuses on how they are developing their
property and how it accesses the public right ofway and surrounding parcels. Additionally, the city
has historically been engaged in greenfield development. In these cases, large projects that could
create significant traffic impacts were required to either dedicate right-of-way and construct public
streets or build private streets to accommodate their intemal traffic circulation. These types oflarge
developments were also guided to locate near collector or arterial roadways that could absorb the
traffic generated by the developments.
As some ofthe city's older commercial and industrial buildings age, there is increased interest in
redeveloping these properties. Often times the proposed redevelopment is a more intense use than
the existing building could accommodate, and, in some cases, the traffic infrastructue that was
constructed as part of the initial development may not be able to adequately support the new use.
Due to the intemal focus ofthe site plan ordinance, it is difficult to evaluate and address these types
of offsite impacts.
Staff first became aware of this concem several years ago when a number ofolder properties
redeveloped to incorporate drive-thru facilities. The city addressed concerns over drive-through
stacking and impacts by amending the City Code in 2017 to classifu all drive-throughs as conditional
uses, and adding a provision to the condition use permit (CUP) standards for drive-throughs
allowing the city to require a vehicle stacking study as part ofthe CUP application. This amendment
has allowed staff to more effectively evaluate and respond to subsequent requests to construct new
drive+hrough facilities within the city.
With the continued interest in redeveloping existing sites, it is important to ensure that the city has
access to sufficient information to evaluate traffic impacts for all types of uses, not just drive-
thoughs. Staffis proposing adding a provision to the site plan application requirements allowing
staff to require traffic studies and adding maintaining an acceptable road system level ofservice to
the site plan evaluation standards. This change would ensure staff can obtain suffrcient information
to evaluate the impact of proposed developments on the city's road system and that the City Council
can act to protect the public interest in situations where a proposal will unacceptably degrade the
road system's level of service.
ALTERNATIVES
1) Do nothing. Many larger projects provide traffic studies and a development's impact on the
road system is part of the holistic review of a site plan.

The Chanhassen Planning Commission recommends the City Council approve the proposed amendment to Chapter
20 concerning accessory solar energy systems.
SUMMARY OF REQUEST
The 2040 Comprehensive Plan identified supporting residential and business solar development that maintains
community character as a natural resources goal, and listed amending the City Code to include definitions, permitted
uses and plans, and access to sunlight as it pertained to solar energy as a policy. The Natural Resources Chapter of the
Comprehensive Plan clarifies this policy by noting that the city has prioritized tree planting which means public
investment in solar energy systems will be limited; however, the city wishes to facilitate the use of solar energy by
private businesses and residences.
Staff has reviewed the city’s existing solar energy provisions as well as literature and model ordinances produced by the
American Planning Association, the Great Plains Institute, and other organizations, and is proposing amending the City
Code to meet the policy objective stated in the 2040 Comprehensive Plan. The proposed amendment would allow
accessory solar energy systems as a permitted accessory use in all districts, adopt relevant definitions, encourage roof
mounted systems but allow for groundmounted systems where roofmounted systems are impractical, ensure that solar
energy systems do not create nuisance glare, and establish basic design, installation, and permitting requirements for
these systems. Staff is not proposing expanding the City Code’s existing provisions that protect access to solar
resources, as the existing code strikes a good balance between solar resources and other considerations. Staff is not
proposing any restrictions on private individual’s ability to enter into solar easements or adopt more restrictive

Issue I: Ovemiew on solor energ) systems
Solar energy systems can be active or passive. Passive systems utilize solar energy without
transforming it to another form ofenergy or transferring it via a heat exchanger. Examples ofa
passive system would be skylights to naturally light the interior ofa house, large south facing
windows to allow the sun to help heat the house, or utilizing construction materials that absorb
sunlight and radiates it into the interior ofthe house. Since passive solar energy systems are integral
design elements ofa building, they are not addressed in this report. Their use would be governed by
the building code and general zoning provisions applicable to all buildings.
Active solar energy systems fall into two major categories: 1) photovoltaic systems that convert
sunlight into energy, and 2) solar thermal systems that use solar energy to create heat. Photovoltaic
systems can be mounted at a fixed angle or placed on tracking devices that follow the sun. These
systems can be ofvastly different scales ranging from large solar farms that produce enough power
to supply a community to small residential systems that partially meet the needs of a single-family
home. Within communities such as Chanhassen, they most often take the form of relatively modest
roof-mounted systems designed to provide energy for on-site use.
Solar thermal systems are often used to heat water as part of residential hot water systems. Such
systems can also be used for space heating/cooling or heating spas and swimming pools. These
systems do not typically generate electrical energy, but rather reduce the amount ofelectricity
needed to heat water or a building.

ANALYSIS
Planning Commission
Accessory Solar Energy Systems
November 19,2019
Page 3
Issue 2: llhot scale/lype of syslems should be allowed?
Solar energy systems can be ofvastly different scale. Large solar energy systems designed to
produce significant amounts ofenergy for sale to utility companies are not currently permitted by the
city's zoning code, nor does the 2040 Comprehensive Plan contemplate permitting such uses. Staffs
proposed ordinance would only apply to accessory solar energy systems where the energy generated
is primarily intended for on-site use.
From a zoning perspective, the differences between the various types ofactive solar energy systems
are not significant enough to require separate regulations. In instances where system design has
extemal impacts, for example using solar reflectors rather than collectors, general design provisions
limiting placement, height, and glare should be sufficient to prevent negative impacts. Staff believes
it is appropriate to use broad language and definitions that can encompass all types ofactive solar
energy systems so that overly specific language does not unintentionally prevent the use ofnew
innovations in solar energy systems. As was previously noted, passive/building inte$ated solar
energy systems would continue to be govemed by the state building code and general zoning
provlslons.
Issue 3: Howfilhere should lhese systems be allowed?
The 2040 Comprehensive Plans goal of supporting residential and business solar development is best
achieved by classi$ing accessory solar energy systems as a permitted use in all ofthe city's zoning
districts. This classification will allow property owners in the city the option of installing accessory
solar energy systems that comply with the city's zoning code by applying for and receiving a
building permit. Staffbelieves that classiffing these systems as conditional uses, which would
require public hearings and City Council approval, would subject them to an excessive and
unnecess:rry level of scrutiny.
Issue 1: Potenlial impact on neighbors
The most common concem that municipalities have about allowing solar energy systems in urban
environments is the possibility ofthe solar panels creating glare that annoys the neighbors or poses a
danger to motorists. Cunently, the city's Planning Department reviews building permits for solar
energy systems in order to ensue that their proposed location will comply with the glare provisions
of the city's nuisance ordinance. To date, all of the residential solar energy systems that have been
installed in the city have been roof-mounted systems, which, by virtue oftheir elevation and
orientation, have a low potential for affecting neighboring properties or motorists. The city has not
received any complaints about glare generated from solar energy systems.
Generally, glare is not a signihcant issue for systems using solar collectors since they are designed to
absorb sunlight rather than reflect it. Solar collectors are constructed ofdark-colored materials and
covered with anti-reflective coatings in order to minimize the reflected light since reflected light
represents a loss ofoperation efficiency. The glare produced by solar collectors is similar to that
produced by a glass window, and since panels are angled towards the sun, most ofthe light reflect is

Planning Commission

directed up and away. Additionally, when glare is generated, it tends to be for a relatively short
duration due to both the daily and seasonal movements ofthe sun.
Some solar energy systems do utilize reflectors rather than solar collectors. These systems do have
the potential to reflect enough light to cause glare issues. In most cases, these issues can be mitigated
through a combination of location, screening, and system design.
Staff proposes to address potential glare issues by requiring solar energy systems to orient reflection
angles away from neighboring windows, requiring systems to be located where they will not direct
glare towards public right ofways, expressing a preference for roof-mounted systems, and requiring
screening for ground-mounted systems.
The other potential impact ofaccessory solar energy systems is aesthetic. Some neighbors may find
these systems to be visually obtrusive or unsightly, or be concemed that the proliferation ofthese
systems could significantly alter the character oftheir neighborhood.
These types of concems can be applied to any other type of accessory use in residential
neighborhoods, and accessory solar energy systems should be subject to the same types ofprovisions
that govem other accessory structures. Staffproposes requiring roof- and building-mounted systems
to use dark unobtrusive colors or colors that blend into roofor building that the system is attached
too, and requiring ground-mounted systems to be located in the rear ofthe structure outside ofany
required setbacks. A screening requirement is also proposed for ground-mounted systems and these
systems would be subject to their District's maximum accessory structure height.
Issue 5: Should Homeownerc Associalions be able to restrict these systems?
Cities have the option to adopt language preventing homeowners associations (HOA) from adopting
more restrictive requirements for solar energy systems than are present in the City Code. The
advantage ofthese tlpes ofprovisions is that they ensure that interested citizens have the ability to
install solar energy systems meeting the city's guidelines regardless of what neighborhood they
happen to live in. These provisions can also avoid the conflicts that can arise when a resident buys
and installs a system after receiving a permit from the city, only to have the HOA inform them that
the HOA's bylaws do not allow the system in question. It should be noted that the city is often
unaware of HOA restrictions and that it is up to the HOAs to notify residents of their rules and, if
necessary, enforce their regulations.
The downsides to these types of provisions is that they can be seen as govemment overreach and
preempting local control. Some residents feel that they and their neighbors should be able to
determine what types ofaccessory uses are suitable for their neighborhood. It should be noted that
an amendment preventing more restrictive requirements would not just prevent an HOA from
banning solar energy systems, it would also prevent them from exercising more moderate limits such
as establishing higher aesthetic criteria, requiring additional screening, or imposing minimum
efficiency standards for solar energy systems.

Issue 6: Should lhe cily guarantee solar access?
Minnesota law allows for the creation ofsolar easements that protect a property's solar access tn
perpetuiry. Typically, these easements prevent adjacent properties from building structures or
planting vegetation that would block sunlight from reaching a solar energy system. Some
communities have adopted ordinances that allow them to require developers to enter into solar
easements as a condition ofa PUD, subdivision, or conditional use permit. A few cities throughout
the nation have adopted provisions guaranteeing solar access throughout their communities.
Currently, Chanhassen requires subdivisions to take potential solar energy design features into
account, lists not resulting in the destruction or damage ofsolar access as a condition for granting
conditional use permits, and requires commercial, industrial, office-institutional, and multi-family
developments to consider solar effects in their site design. The city's current approach requires staff
and developers to be mindful of potential impact of development on solar resources, but does not
prioritize solar resources over other natural resources.
Statutory provisions or solar easements ensuring access to solar resources do guarantee that the
functionality of an installed solar energy system will not be impaired by future development, but
they can also come into conflict with other environmental resources. For example, an already
existing tree could grow to height where it begins to shade a solar collector or new homeowner may
find they are unable to plant trees due to a neighbor's solar energy system. In these cases, blanket
provisions protecting solar access for the installation ofa new solar energy system may create
conflicts with pre-existing trees.
The city has chosen to prioritize tree cover in its 2040 Comprehensive Plan, and for this reason, staff
does not propose adopting any new Code provisions guaranteeing solar access or requiring solar
easements. Private citizens would still have the right to purchase or grant solar easements to
guarantee permanent solar access for their solar energy systems.
Staff proposes allowing HOAs and similarly empowered neighborhood level organizations to
determine what, if any, additional requirements are appropriate for their community.
ALTERNATIVES
l) Do nothing. The glare ordinance and state building code provide sufficient guidance to allow
roof-mounted systems in residential districts.
2) Amend the City Code to include definitions, standards, and list accessory solar energy
systems as permitted uses in all districts.
3) Amend the City Code to include definitions, standards, list accessory solar energy systems as
permitted uses in all districts, and include provisions limiting the ability of HOAs to restrict
the installation of solar energy systems.
4) Amend the City Code to include definitions, standards, list accessory solar energy systems as
permitted uses in all districts, include provisions limiting the ability of HOAs to restrict the
installation ofsolar energy systems, and protect resident's access to sunlight.

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends Altemative 2. Staffbelieves that adopting definitions, standards, and clearly
stating what solar energy systems are allowed and where they may be located will make the
community more solar friendly. Staff does not believe it is practical to attempt to guarantee access to
sunlight and feels HOAs and similar organizations should be allowed to determine their own policies
on solar energy systems.
The proposed solar energy ordinance would read as follows:

2) DeJinitions,In this division, the following terms have the stated meanings:
"Active Solar Energr Systems" means a solar energr system whose primary
purpose is to harvest enerry by transforming solar enerry into another form of
enerry or transferring heat from a collector to another medium using
mechanical, electrical, or chemical means.
"Building-integrated Solar Enerry Systems' means an active solar enerry
system that is an integral part of a principal or accessorJ building rather than a
separate mechanical device, replacing or substitution or an architectural or
structural component of the building. Building-integrated systems include but
are not limited to photovoltaic or hot water solar energr systems that are
contained within roofing materials, windows, skylights' and awnings.
"Passive Solar Enerry System" means a solar enerry system that captures solar
light or heat without transforming it to another form of enerry or transferring
the enerry via a heat exchanger.
"Solar Collector'means a device, structure, or a part ofa device or structure for
which the primary purpose is to transform solar radiant energi into thermal,
mechanical, chemical, or electrical energr.
"Solar Collector Surface" means any part of a solar collector that absorbs solar
enerry for use in the collector's ener5/ transformation process. Collector surface
does not include frames, supports, and mounting hardware.
"Solar Enerry" means radiant enerry received from the sun that can be
collected in the form of heat or light by a solar collector.
"Solar Energr System" means a device or structural design feature, a substantial
purpose of which is to provide daylight for interior lighting or provide for the
collection, storage and distribution ofsolar enerry for space heating or cooling,
electricity generating, or water heating.
3) Standards.
a, Applicability. A system is considered an accessory solar enerry system only if
it supplies electrical or thermal power primarily for on-site use, except that
when a property upon which the facility is installed also receives electrical
power supplied by a utility company, excess electrical power generated and
not presently needed for on-site use may be used by the utility company.

PROPOSED MOTION:
The Chanhassen Planning Commission recommends that the City Council adopt the proposed amendment to
Chapter 20 concerning fixing a topographical error in the Interim Use Permit (IUP) standards.
SUMMARY OF REQUEST
Section 20322(4) reads, “The date of event that will terminate the use can be identified with certainty.” This section

Section 20-322(4) reads, "The date ofevent that will terminate the use can be identified with
certainty." This section should read "date or event".
In 1990, the city created interim use permits (lUP) and began classifoing uses that it desired to be
temporary in nature as interim uses. The purpose of IUPs are to accommodate uses that are
curently appropriate to an area, but which the city anticipates will not be appropriate in the
future. The main difference between an IUP and a conditional use permits (CUP) is that a CUP
will continue to be in effect so long as the use is maintained, whereas IUPs have built in
expiration clauses.
ANALYSIS
The intent of IUPs are to permit temporary uses with set expiration points. The expiration point
is either a fixed date or period, for example l0 years from the issuance of the IUP, or a set event,
for example the extension ofurban services to the site. Both types of termination conditions are
present within IUPs issued by the City; however, the general issuance standards for interim use
permits section 20-322(4) reads. "The date ofevent that will terminate the use can be identified
with certainty." As written, this would mean the city should only issue IUPs with frxed dates of
termination, for example the 1O-year anniversary ofthe permit, and not for future events ofan
uncertain date, like the availability of urban services.

Subject Amendment to Chanhassen City Code to Restrict Merchandise Sold at Temporary and Special
Events to Goods Normally Sold On Site
Section PUBLIC HEARINGS Item No: B.6.
Prepared By MacKenzie YoungWalters, Associate
Planner
File No:
PROPOSED MOTION:
The Chanhassen Planning Commission recommends that the City Council approve the proposed amendment to
Chapter 20 concerning allowable merchandise at temporary and special events.
SUMMARY OF REQUEST
In 2017, the city revised the section of the City Code that governs temporary and special events to better address
larger events and races. As part of these revisions, the city switched from listing “criteria for approval” to stating
“grounds for denial”. The goal of this shift was to provide stronger legal justification for denying permits that the city
believed could negatively impact adjacent parcels or overtax municipal infrastructure and resources. Most of the
previously listed criteria for approval where rephrased and incorporated into the grounds for denial; however, the
requirement that only merchandise normally sold or stocked by the occupants could be sold or promoted was
overlooked.
Due to this omission, properties with commercial zoning could theoretically apply for a temporary outdoor event permit
to allow a business to set up a popup shop in its parking lot. Since the goal of the ordinance is to allow for
Chanhassen’s businesses and organizations to promote themselves and host community events, rather than
accommodating transient merchants, staff feels this is contrary to the intent of the ordinance. Staff proposes adding the
omitted provision limiting merchandise sales to the section of the Code regulating temporary and special events.

BACKGROUND
Amendment History
Ordinance 80 passed in 1986 established the framework for the existing zoning code and listed temporary outdoor
display of merchandise for sale as a conditional use within commercial districts. Granting temporary sales permit
required Council action and no standards beyond those associated with general conditional use permits (CUP) were
established.
Ordinance 83 passed in 1988 reorganized the City Code, established a definition for temporary outdoor sales and
established CUP standards for them in section 20290. These new standards took into account traffic and parking
impact and allowed for the administrative review of temporary sales permits. Both retail promotions and produce
stands were allowed under this ordinance.
Ordinance 243 passed in 1995 amended section 20290 to provide a justification for regulating temporary sales, to
stipulate the required permit application process, establish criteria for approval, list the permitted types of sales, and
stipulate the general conditions that were placed upon these permits. One of the criteria for approval was that only
merchandise normally sold or stocked by the occupant on the subject premises could be sold.
Ordinance 377 passed in 2004 relocated section 20290 to section 20312 and temporary outdoor sales were moved
from conditional to permitted accessory uses within commercial districts. A section was also added further regulating
the location of displays associated with temporary events.
Ordinance 511 passed in 2010 relocated section 20312 to section 20964 and expanded the section to explicitly
address temporary outdoor events, seasonal and sidewalk sales activities rather than just temporary outdoor sales.
Ordinance 619 passed in 2017 expanded the section to encompass special events and to require race addendums for
events leaving the applicant’s property. Temporary events and sales were added to both the industrial office park and
office institutional district’s list of permitted accessory uses. This section of the Code was significantly altered to include
unique provisions and requirements for temporary sales, seasonal sales, and special events. The criteria for approval
section was replaced with grounds for denial section. The limitation of sales to merchandise normally sold and stocked
by the occupant on the subject premises was not retained.
Note: These standards have been relocated within the City Code several times, which makes it extremely
challenging to trace the history of these provisions. Staff has done its best to note the relevant changes, but
some amendments may have been missed.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the city add a prohibition on the sale of merchandise not normally sold by the occupants of the
premise to the temporary and special event ordinance, with exemptions for the sale of goods accessory to a proposed
event.

When the temporary sales and events ordinance was updated in 2017, the prohibition on selling

Note: These standards have been relocated within the City Code several times, which makes it

relevant changes, but some amendments may have been missed.
The intent ofthe city's special and temporary event ordinance is to allow local businesses and
organizations the opportunity to promote themselves or organize community events that require
the temporary use ofan outdoor location. In 1986, the ordinance was originally designed to
accommodate weekend promotions and sidewalk sales; however, in 1988 it was it was
subsequently expanded to accommodate and regulate seasonal produce stands. In 1995, a formal
permitting process and prohibition on the sale ofmerchandise not normally sold on site was
established.
As business started to engage in more promotional events that did not neatly fall into the
categories of retail promotions or seasonal produce stands, the ordinance was revised in 2010 to
allow for more general temporary outdoor events as well as seasonal and sidewalk sales. The
prohibition on outside merchandise remained as the intent was still to allow an existing business
to promote itself, rather than permit transient merchants to operate within the city.
In 2017, the city noticed a significant increase in the number of permit applications for races and
walks. The city realized that the existing temporary event ordinance was not designed to evaluate
the impact that large events that left the applicant's property could have adjacent parcels and the
city's trail, sidewalk, and road system. Additionally, several organizations were hosting large
events with thousands of attendees that were far beyond the scope that had been anticipated by
earlier ordinances. In response to this, the city rewrote the temporary and special event ordinance
to create three categories ofevent permits, a race addendum, and establish criteria for the denial
of permits. Most of the preexisting limitations on permits where carried over; however, the
prohibition on the sale of merchandise not normally sold on site was not.
This prohibition was not carried over because staffbelieved that the prohibition on activities not
permitted by zoning or other statute was suffrcient, and because ofthe potential for desired
temporary and special events to include the incidental sale ofgoods. For example, a bank's open
house may feature a food truck or a church's charity walk might include t-shirt sales. Staff felt
that this increased flexibility was especially desirable for special events, particularly those hosted
by non-profits that typically had no on-site commercial activity.
Unfortunately, by not including this prohibition, staff undermined the intent ofthe ordinance.
Without the restriction to goods typically sold on site, pop-up tent vendors and otler transient
merchants could be permitted by ordinance. For example, a gas station could apply for a
temporary event permit to allow an outside merchant to set up a weekend t-shirt stand in their
parking lot. Since 1995, it has been the explicil intent ofthe temporary and special event
ordinance to prohibit pop-up parking lot stands.
3
ANALYSIS
Staff believes that a criterion for denial should be added to the section ofthe City Code
regulating temporary and special events that prohibits the sale of merchandise not normally sold
on the property, with an exemption for seasonal sales and goods accessory to the event.
Structuring the prohibition in this manner will prohibit transient merchants from operating under
a temporary event permit, but will allow for food trucks and limited sales associated with special
events. It will also accommodate concession sales at events hosted by non-profit organizations,
like churches and schools, which typically do not sell merchandise on site. Finally, seasonal sales
would continue to be allowed, accommodating traditional community fixtures like produce
stands and Christmas tree lots.
Staff feels the above proposal will balance providing some additional flexibility in permitted
event activities with prohibiting pop up parking lot sales.
ALTERI{ATIVES
I ) Do nothing. The city rarely receives these types of requests, and business owners are
typically leery of leasing portions oftheir parking lots to unaffiliated entities.
2) Amend Sec. 20-964 to include a prohibition on sales of merchandise not normally sold by
the occupants of the premises, with exceptions for the sale ofgoods that are clearly
accessory to the proposed event.
Staff recommends Altemative 2. The proposed amendments would read as follows:
Sec.20-964. - Temporary outdoor events, sidewalk sales, seasonal sales and special events
(7) Grounds for deniol. A sales or event permit application may be denied if based on the
application and other relevant information, the city finds that:
a. Information contained in the application or otherwise submiued by the applicant is false
or insufficient to allow for an effective evaluation ofthe proposed sale or event.
b. The applicant fails to provide required or requested supplemental information after
having been notified by the city that additional documentation is required.
c. The applicant fails to agree to all conditions and terms of permit.
d. The applicant has outstanding fees due to the city, unresolved code enforcement or
noncompliant building permit issues, has violated the terms and conditions ofa
previously issued sale or event permit, or has had a previously issued sale or event
permit revoked by the city.
e. The type of sale or event is not permitted by zoning or other statute.

Subject Amendment to Chanhassen City Code to Adopt Minimum Driveway Configuration Standards
Section PUBLIC HEARINGS Item No: B.7.
Prepared By MacKenzie YoungWalters, Associate
Planner
File No:
PROPOSED MOTION:
The Chanhassen Planning Commission recommends that the City Council approve the proposed amendment to
Chapter 20 concerning driveways.
SUMMARY OF REQUEST
There have been several ongoing issues with driveways in the City of Chanhassen. The first is that builders who are
informed that they are over their zoning district’s hardcover limits are increasingly choosing to reconfigure driveways in
order to bring their proposed plans into compliance with City Ordinance. These reconfigured driveways sometimes
taper so quickly down to the city’s 10foot minimum width that there is not enough space provided to park cars in front
of the garage or the movements needed to enter and exit the garage are impractical.
The second concern is that the driveway ordinance’s minimum 10foot side yard setback is more restrictive than the
Residential Low and Medium (RLM) Density District’s 5foot side yard setback. This creates a situation where many
lots with RLM zoning have garages located five feet from the side lot line, which necessitates an exemption from the
city’s 10foot side yard driveway setback.
The final issue is that the driveway ordinance has been amended seven times since it was adopted in 2001. Many of
these amendments added new subsections but did not place them under headings linking them to existing provisions.
This has led to the current driveway ordinance being difficult for residents and builders to navigate.
Staff is recommending expanding the minimum design standards to ensure that driveways provide sufficient offstreet
parking and allow for functional movements, that the driveway setback be made commensurate to the property’s
underlying zoning for the first 20 feet, and that the section be reorganized to improve readability.

DATE:
SUBJ:
The city's minimum driveway standards are not sufficient to ensure that functional driveways are
installed, nor do the required side yard setbacks align with some ofthe city's zoning districts.
Additionally, the existing driveway ordinance contains redundancies and should be reorganized to
improve clarity.
SUMMARY
There have been several ongoing issues with driveways in the City of Chanhassen. The first is that
builders who are informed that they are over their zoning district's hardcover limits are increasingly
choosing to reconfigure driveways in order to bring their proposed plans into compliance with City
Ordinance. These reconfigured driveways sometimes taper so quickly down to the city's l0-foot
minimum width that there is not enough space provided to park cars in fiont of the garage or the
movements needed to enter and exit the garage are impractical.
The second concem is that the driveway ordinance's minimum l0-foot side yard setback is more
restrictive than the Residential Low and Medium (RLM) Density District's S-foot side yard setback.
This creates a situation where many lots with RLM zoning have garages located hve feet from the
side lot line, which necessitates an exemption from the city's lO-foot side yard driveway setback.
The final issue is that the driveway ordinance has been amended seven times since it was adopted in
2001. Many ofthese amendments added new subsections but did not place them under headings
linking them to existing provisions. This has led to the current driveway ordinance being difficult for
residents and builders to navigate.

Issue I: Selbacks
The first ordinance addressing driveway setbacks was passed in l99l and allowed them to be placed
within any required yard setback. This essentially meant that driveways could be placed up to the
property line, unless a drainage and utility easement was present. In 2001, the driveway ordinance
was amended to state that driveway setbacks could be reduced to five feet after the first 20 feet from
the road or if circumstances warranted. The verbatim minutes associated with this amendment stated
that the Planning Commission was trying to balance allowing residents to place parking pads for
boatVtrailers alongside their garage with not having driveways, especially those associated with side
loading garages, paved right up to the lot line. In 2006, the ordinance was further amended to clarify
that a l0-foot setback existed for the first 20 feet from the road, since the original language did not
actually state what setback, ifany, existed for the first 20 feet of driveway length.

RELEVANT CITY CODE
ANALYSIS
Planning Commission
Driveway Standards
November 19,2019
Page 3
Currently, all properties in the city are subject to the same driveway setbacks, regardless oftheir
underlying zoning district. Driveways are required to be setback 10 feet from the side yard for the
first 20 feet from the road after which the setback may be reduced to five feet or the width ofthe
propeny's drainage and utility (D&U) easement, whichever is greater. The Code does allow
driveway setbacks to be reduced with the approval ofthe City Engineer ifcertain criteria are met;
however, one ofthe criteria is lot frontage offa cul-de-sac or neck/flag lot that does not permit
adequate access width while meeting the side yard setback. Provisions are also made for granting
encroachment agreements into the side yard D&U easements.
Issues have arisen because the RLM district and several Planned Unit Development-Residential
(PUD-R) Districts have S-foot garage side setbacks combined with 25-foot front yard setbacks.
When homes are built with garages five feet from the side lot line and a 25-foot long driveway. it is
not possible to design a functional driveway that maintains a 10-foot side yard setback for 20 feet of
the driveway's 25-foot length. Stafls practice has been to have the City Engineer grant driveway
setback exemptions for these properties; however, this means these homes require additional
administrative approvals as part of the building permit process. Additionally, the exemptions clause
in the driveway setback ordinance is intended to address extenuating circumstances associated with
flaglneck and cul-de-sac lots, rather than accommodate every property in a suMivision.
This diffrculty could be addressed either by eliminating the side yard setback for driveways, by
reducing it to five feet for all properties, or by making it commensurate with a property's zoning.
The first option creates the possibility for parking areas next to the garage that go up to the lot line.
Staff regularly receives calls fiom neighbors concemed about boats, trailers, and campers being
stored near the lot line, which is allowed by ordinance, and allowing homeowners to install
permanent parking surfaces up to the lot line would likely increase the number and severity ofthese
concems. In addition, allowing the installation of pavement and associated gading right up to lot
lines has the potential to divert runoff onto neighboring properties and otherwise negatively affect an
area's drainage. Finally, installation of permanent surfaces near or on the lot line is likely to increase
the number of lot line disputes that occur, especially since the city does not conduct inspections to
verifo that structues, like parking pads, permitted through zoning permits are installed in the
proposed location.
The second option would address the issue, but would potentially cause snow storage and driveway
run offissues for Single-Family Residential (RSF) Districts and PUD-Rs designed and graded with
l0-foot side yard setbacks in mind. Reducing these properties' driveway setbacks to five feet would
also facilitate closer driveway spacing within the right ofway, and could create aesthetic situations
where two large driveways on adjacent properties could be separated by as little as l0 feet. Finally,
these properties are already allowed to reduce the driveway setback to five feet after the first 20 feet
of lengh, which permits the creation of side parking pads.
The third option would address the issue by allowing properties designed to have I S-foot rather than
20-foot separation between adjacent structures to install driveways that line up with their garages.
Issues such as the minimum distance between driveways would be mitigated by the fact that these
districts typically require altemating 5- and lO-foot setbacks. Some of the city's more recent
3
Planning Commission
Driveway Standards
November 19,2019
Page 4
PUD-RS, like Arbor Glen, have already adopted language establishing S-foot driveway side yard
setbacks; however, an ordinance change would be needed to address older existing PUD-Rs and
properties in the RLM district.
Staffbelieves that making driveways' side yard setback commensulate with a property's zoning
district's side yard setback while continuing to allow a reduction to five feet after the first 20 feet
would be the best remedy for this issue.
Issue 2: Minimum Slandards
When builders and homeowners are told that they are at or over their property's lot cover limit, they
generally try to find areas of paved surface that can be removed rather than redesign and reduce the
size ofa proposed house or addition. Driveways are often the first target for reduction.
In some cases, the proposed driveway configurations do not accommodate off-street puuking and
create dilficulties in entering and exiting the garage. While the driveway ordinance establishes a
minimum width of 10 feet, a maximum width of 24 feet at the right of way line and a maximum
width of50 feet within the property, it does not allow staff to require a practical driveway
configuration. In several cases, prospective homebuyers have contacted the city about the possibility
ofreceiving a variance to expand driveways that were reduced to meet lot cover requirements due to
the diffrculty ofnavigating these driveways. In other cases, builders have poured driveways
significantly larger than what was proposed to address the deficiencies ofthe approved driveway.
which causes the property to exceed its lot cover limits and requires the city to take enforcement
actions.
Staffbelieves that it is reasonable to require that driveways be designed to facilitate adequate ingress
and egress to the garage and provide a number of off-street parking spaces equivalent to the number
of garage stalls. To accomplish this, stalf is proposing that driveways be required to extend the width
ofthe garage doors for a distance ofat least l8 feet before tapering down to a reduced width. Staff
chose 18 feet because it is the city code's minimum depth for a parking stall and it would provide
adequate maneuverability within the driveway.
Issue 3: Reorganizalion ond Clarity
The city's driveway ordinance has been amended seven times since it was established in 1990. The
result is an ordinance with 13 numbered subsections without headings where provisions goveming
similar elements are not always located near each other. For example, subsection I notes that its
setbacks do not apply to cul-de-sac or neck/flag lots, but the criteria for reducing those setbacks are
contained in subsection 8, and subsection 5 notes an additional setback not mentioned in subsection
l.
Staff proposes reorganizing the driveway ordinance into six main categories, each of which will
contain all of the relevant clauses. For example, the clauses currently contained in subsections l, 5,
and 8 would all be placed under a new subsection called "setbacks". Staffbelieves this will make it
4

easier for all parties to read and implement the city's driveway ordinance. The proposed formatting
and organization can be found in the recommendation section at the end ofthis report. As part ofthe
reorganization, numerous non-substantive changes to the wording and grammar ofthe provisions are
also included and redundant language has been removed.
1) Do nothing.
2) Amend the City Code to reorganize the driveway section.
3) Amend the City Code to reorganize the driveway section and update the side yard setbacks.
4) Amend the City Code to reorganize the driveway section, update the side yards setbacks, and
expand minimum design standards.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends Altemative 4. Staff believes: 1) that expanded minimum design standards will
reduce the number of non-functional/impractical driveways that are installed; 2) that aligning
driveway and yard setbacks will reduce the number ofexemptions requested; and, 3) that
reorganizing the section will increase its clarity.
The proposed amended driveway ordinance would read as follows:
Sec.20-1122. - Access and driveways.
The purpose of this section is 1o provide minimum design criteria, setback and slope standards
for vehicular use. The intent is to reduce interference with drainage and utility easements by
providing setback standards; reduce erosion by requiring a hard surface for all driveways; to limit
the number of driveway access points to public streets and to direct drainage toward the street via
establishment of minimum driveway slope standards. Parking and loading spaces shall have proper
access from a public right-of-way. The number and width ofaccess &ives shall be located to

Subject Amendment to Chanhassen City Code to Require SingleFamily Homes to Have Walkways and
Concrete Pads for Stairs and Landings
Section PUBLIC HEARINGS Item No: B.8.
Prepared By MacKenzie YoungWalters, Associate
Planner
File No:
PROPOSED MOTION:
The Chanhassen Planning Commission recommends that the City Council approve the proposed amendment to
Chapter 20 concerning sidewalks and concrete pads.
SUMMARY OF REQUEST
Sidewalks and entrance/stair landings are typical features of homes; however, there are instances where they are
omitted from proposed projects in order to meet the requirements of the city’s zoning code. When these features are
not included, homeowners often discover that they are necessary and have them constructed after the fact. Often these
afterthefact additions are constructed without a permit and do not meet the requirements of the City Code, which can
lead to the city having to take enforcement actions. Staff is proposing amending the Code requiring applicants to include
these features in order to give staff the ability to require the revision of projects that have a high potential of causing
future problems.
APPLICATION REGULATIONS
Sec. 20905. Singlefamily dwellings. This section lists the city’s minimum standards for detached singlefamily
dwellings.
Sec. 20908. Yard regulations. This section allows certain architectural elements to encroach specified distances
within required yard setbacks and specifies what structures may be located within city easements.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the city require new homes to include sidewalks and pads for stairs, landings, and access doors
other than those from a dwelling to the outdoors.

Sidewalks and Concrete PadsSUBJ:
The City Code does not require single-family homes to have sidewalks or concrete pads for stairs,
landings, and access doors, other than those from a dwelling to the outdoors. These features are
common-sense amenities that help facilitate safe ingress/egress and their subsequent addition can
cause properties to exceed their permitted lot cover.
Sidewalks and entrance/stair landings are typical features ofhomes; however, there are instances
where they are omitted fiom proposed projects in order to meet the requirements ofthe city's zoning
code. When these features are not included, homeowners often discover that they are necessary and
have them constructed after the fact. Often these after-the-fact additions are constructed without a
permit and do not meet the requirements olthe City Code, which can lead to the city having to take
enforcement actions. Staffis proposing amending the Code to require applicants to include these
features in order to give staff the ability to require the revision of projects that have a high potential
of causing future problems.
Sec. 20-905. - Single-family dwellings. This section lists the city's minimum standards for detached
single-family dwellings.

Homes typically feature an improved surface connecting the driveway to front entryway. These
walkways provide easy and safe access to the home and also help keep the interior ofa house clean
by reducing the amount ofdirt brought in from crossing the yard. An entry walkway is a basic
amenity that is either constructed along with the home or added soon after the house is complete.
Over the last year, there have been a few instances where builders or homeowners have proposed
omitting or removing the entr)$/ay in order to get under the property's lot cover limits. These
proposals, while permitted by the City Code, create long-term issues for future property owners. ln
the case ofnew construction, the new owners typically try to install the sidewalk immediately after
purchasing the home. When they consult with the city, they are surprised and frustrated to discover
that the property cannot accommodate a simple paved walkway. There have also been instances
where landscapers have installed the sidewalk at the puchaser's request without pulling a permit and
the Foperty cannot pass its as-built inspection due to being over its permitted lot cover. For older
homes where applicants propose removing existing sidewalks to free up lot cover for a different
project, there have been cases where the segments have been subsequently replaced or were simply
not removed. In both ofthese situations, after-the-fact enforcement and compliance are problematic,
and homeowners are understandably frustrated to discover that their home cannot have a common
sense feature.
Historically, the city had a similar issue with patios where builders would install patio doors but not
leave sufficient lot cover available to provide for the installation ofa patio. In 2006, the city
addressed this problem by adopting Ordinance 423, which requires builders to show a ten-foot-by-
ten-foot future patio outside of access doors not connected to a sidewalk or stoop. While there are
still issues with homeowners wishing for a larger patio area than can be accommodated, this has
given the city the ability to require builders to provide for a functional patio area outside of patio
doors. This provision has resulted in significantly fewer issues caused by homeowners not having
reasonable use oftheir property due to builders constructing homes that utilize the entirety ofthe
property's available lot cover.
Issue 2: Landings
Exterior doors and stairs, such as those providing access from the ground to a deck or porch,
typically feature a small concrete landing. These landings help provide safe access to the doors and
stairs by preventing frequent travel from wearing divots in the lawn. Landings are typically small
enough that they do not create lot coverage issues; however, problems can arise when the door or
stairs are located directly adjacent to drainage and utilities easements.
)
Staffbelieves that a similar provision would help address the issues that can arise when builders and
owners try to maximize building size by removing or severely reducing the size of entryway
sidewalks. It is significantly easier to prevent lot cover issues fiom being created during the building
phase than it is to correct them after the house has been built and concrete has been poured. Staff is
recommending that a four-foot walkway be required to connect the main entrance to the driveway.
Planning Commission
Sidewalks and Concrete Pads

This is not generally an issue for doors that are part ofa principal structure within zoning districts
with l0-foot side yard setbacks, since the typical side yard drainage and utility easement is only five
feet. However, the Residential Low and Medium Density District and some Planned Unit
Developments allow for 5-foot side yard setbacks along a home's garage side. Additionally, the
city's yard regulations allow uncovered stairs and landings to project up to six feet into required
setbacks. Problems can arise when deck stairs are oriented to terminate right at the start of easements
or when access doors are located immediately adjacent to easements. In these cases, encroachment
agreements cannot always be issued for the installation of landings.
Staff has observed that when the installation of a landing is problematic, builders typically choose to
remove the landing from the proposed project; however, these features are often installed as part of
subsequent landscaping efforts without a permit. The installation of landings without encroachment
agreements or in places where encroachment agreements would not have been issued can create
issues for the city when it needs to utilize its easements. Cunently, staff does not have the ability to
require revisions to proposed access and stair locations that have a high potential to create future
problems.
Staff would prefer to be able to require buildings and stairs to be configured to accommodate the
inevitable addition ofa landing rather than attempt to conduct after-the-fact enforcement actions.
Staff is recommending that landings with a minimum depth of three feet be shown running the width
of stairs and access doors.
ALTERNATIVES
l) Do nothing. Most homes include these features, and the lot cover amounts are typically small
enough that most properties can accommodate their addition.
2) Amend Sec. 20-905 to require new detached single-family homes to include sidewalks, and
pads for stairs, landings, and access doors other than those fiom a dwelling to the outdoors.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends Altemative 2. The proposed amendment would read as follows:
Sec. 20-905. - Single-farnily dwellings.
All single-family detached homes shall:
( I ) Be constructed upon a continuous perimeter foundation that meets the requirements of the
state Building code.
(2) Conform to the following standards for living areas:
a. Ifa one-story rambler design, have an area of960 square feet.

c. Ifa split foyer and two-story desigr, have an area of600 square feet on the first floor.
d. A two-car garage must be provided with the single-family structure.
(3) Have an earth covered, composition, shingled or tiled roof or other materials approved by
the Minnesota State Building Code as adopted and amended by the city.
(4) Receive a building permit. The application for a building permit in addition to other

(5) Meet the requirements of the Minnesota State Building Code, as adopted and amended by
the city or the applicable manufactured housing code.
(6) Where access doors are proposed from a dwelling to the outdoors, which does not connect
directly to a sidewalk or stoop, a minimum ten-feet-by-ten-feet area ofpatio shall be
assumed. This patio area must be shown to comply with required property line, lake and
wetland setbacks; may not encroach into conservation or drainage and utility easements;
and shall not bring the site's lot coverage above that permitted by ordinance.
(7) Where the main entrance does not connect directly to the driveway, a walkway at least
four feet in width connecting the driveway and main entrance shall be assumed. This
walkruay must be shown to comply with required property line, lake and wetland
setbacks; may not encroach into conservation or drainage and utility easements; and
shall not bring the site's lot coverlge above that permitted by ordinance.
(8) A landing not less than three feet deep shall be shown running the width ofany
exterior stairs or proposed access door, unless a ten-feet-by-ten-feet patio area is
instead required by section 20-905(6). This landing must be shown to comply with
required property line, lake and wetland setbacks; may not encroach into
conservation or drainage and utility easements; and shall not bring the site's lot
coverage above that permitted by ordinance.

Subject Amendment to Chanhassen City Code to Adopt Airport Zoning Standards
Section PUBLIC HEARINGS Item No: B.9.
Prepared By MacKenzie YoungWalters, Associate
Planner
File No:
PROPOSED MOTION:
The Chanhassen Planning Commission recommends that the City Council approve the proposed amendment to
Chapter 20 of the City Code concerning establishing an Airport Zoning Overlay District.
SUMMARY OF REQUEST
A portion of the City of Chanhassen is located within the Flying Cloud Airport’s Airspace Zoning Limit. Structures and
trees within this area are subject to the Flying Cloud Airport Zoning Ordinance’s provisions limiting the maximum height
of structures and trees within the airspace zoning limit and requiring airport zoning permits for the construction of
structures above a certain height within the airspace zoning limit. The Flying Cloud Airport Zoning Ordinance lists the
City of Chanhassen as the party responsible for administering and enforcing its provisions within the city’s municipal
boundaries. In order to fulfill this responsibility, the city must adopt the provisions of the Flying Cloud Airport Zoning
Ordinance as part of its City Code. Staff believes that the most efficient way to do this is to establish an Airport Zoning
Overlay District, and adopt the Flying Cloud Airport Zoning Ordinance by reference as additional standards for
properties within the overlay district. Staff believes this will have a minimal impact on the city.
BACKGROUND
The Flying Cloud Airport Joint Airport Zoning Board, upon which the City of Chanhassen had appointed
representatives, has been working for the last eight years on developing and adopting an Airport Zoning Ordinance. On
April 10, 2019, the Board adopted the Flying Cloud Airport Zoning Ordinance that went into effect on May 1, 2019.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the city establish an Airport Zoning Overlay District and adopt the Flying Cloud Airport Zoning
Ordinance.

Only a small portion of the city adjacent to Lake Riley is located within Flying Cloud Airport's
airspace zoning limits. Upon examination of the airport zoning ordinance, staff found that the
most restrictive height limit placed upon a parcel within the City of Chanhassen was the
requirement ofan Airport Zoning Permit for stnrctures 240 feet or higher. The tallest structure
permitted by City Code outside of the Central Business District, which does not have height
limits, would be a tower with a maximum height of 225 feet; however, since all of the property
within the airspace zoning limits is zoned for residential use, the maximum height within that
area would actually be 105 feet. Theoretically, a variance could be issued to exceed this height,
but it is highly unlikely the city would consent to a variance for a structure that more than
doubled its district's maximum height.
Unlike the City Code, the airport zoning ordinance also regulates the maximum height oftrees.
Since the tallest tree in the state of Minnesota is a 130-foot tall white spruce in Littlefork, staff
does not believe that it is likely the adoption ofthe airport zoning ordinance will impact any
existing or future trees within the city.
Finally, it should be noted that Sec. 20-907 of the City Code exempts some struclures, such as
flagpoles, and architectural features, such as church spires, from the height limitations prcsent in
the Zoning Code. Since the tallest flagpole in the United States of America is 400 feet tall and
the tallest church in the United States is 392 feet, it is possible, though again unlikely, that a
resident could propose a 240+ flagpole or church spire that would trigger the airport zoning
permit.
Given the above, it is staffls beliefthat adopting the airport zoning ordinance will not in any way
hinder the use or development ofthe parcels that will fall within its overlay district.
1) Amend the City Code to establish an Airport Zoning Overlay District and adopt the
Flying Cloud Airport Zoning Ordinance.
2) Do nothing.
Staff recommends Alternative 1, which would allow the city to administer and enforce the Flying

FLYING CLOUD AIRPORT JOINT AIRPORT ZONING BOARD
AN ORDINANCE REGULATING AND RESTRICTING THE HEIGHT OF STRUCTURES AND OBJECTS OF
NATURAL GROWTH, AND OTHERWISE REGULATING THE USE OF PROPERTY, IN THE VICINITY OF
THE FLYING CLOUD AIRPORT BY CREATING THE APPROPRIATE ZONES AND ESTABLISHING THE
BOUNDARIES THEREOF; PROVIDING FOR CHANGES IN THE RESTRICTIONS AND BOUNDARIES OF
SUCH ZONES; DEFINING CERTAIN TERMS; REFERRING TO THE FLYING CLOUD AIRPORT ZONING
MAP; PROVIDING FOR ENFORCEMENT; ESTABLISHING A BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT; AND
IMPOSING PENALTIES.
THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY ORDAINED BY THE FLYING CLOUD AIRPORT JOINT AIRPORT ZONING
BOARD PURSUANT TO THE AUTHORITY CONFERRED BY MINNESOTA STATUTES §§ 360.061 –
360.074, THAT THE FLYING CLOUD AIRPORT ZONING ORDINANCE BE EFFECTIVE AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION I. PURPOSE AND AUTHORITY
The FLYING CLOUD Airport Joint Airport Zoning Board, created and established by joint action of
the Metropolitan Airports Commission and the Cities of Eden Prairie, Shakopee, and Chanhassen,
pursuant to the provisions and authority of Minnesota Statutes § 360.063, hereby finds and
declares that:
A. An Airport Hazard endangers the lives and property of users of the Airport and property or
occupants of land in its vicinity, and also, if of the obstructive type, in effect reduces the size
of the area available for the landing, takeoff, and maneuvering of aircraft, thus tending to
destroy or impair the utility of the Airport and the public investment therein.
B. The creation or establishment of an Airport Hazard is a public nuisance and an injury to the
region served by the Airport.
_
FCM Zoning Ordinance Page 2
C. For the protection of the public health, safety, order, convenience, prosperity, and general
welfare, and for the promotion of the most appropriate use of land, it is necessary to prevent
the creation or establishment of Airport Hazards.
D. The social and economic costs of disrupting land uses around the Airport, however, often
outweigh the benefits of a reduction in Airport Hazards requiring a balance between the social
and economic costs to surrounding communities and the benefits of strict regulation.
E. The prevention of these Airport Hazards should be accomplished, to the extent legally
possible, by the exercise of the police power without compensation.
F. Preventing the creation or establishment of Airport Hazards and eliminating, removing,
altering, mitigating, or marking and lighting of existing Airport Hazards are public purposes for
which political subdivisions may raise and expend public funds, levy assessments against land,
and acquire land and property interests therein.

D. Permit Standard. An Airport Zoning Permit shall be granted unless the Zoning
Administrator determines that granting the permit (1) would allow a conforming Structure or
use to violate any provision of this FCM Zoning Ordinance or (2) would permit a
nonconforming Structure or a Nonconforming Use to become a greater violation of any
provision of this FCM Zoning Ordinance. Any Airport Zoning Permit granted may be granted
subject to any reasonable conditions that the Zoning Administrator may deem necessary to
_
FCM Zoning Ordinance Page 15
effectuate the purpose of this FCM Zoning Ordinance. In making any determination, the
Zoning Administrator need not give public notice of, or hold a public hearing on, the Airport
Zoning Permit application or the determination.
E. Abandoned Or Deteriorated Nonconforming Uses. Whenever a Zoning Administrator
determines that a nonconforming Structure has been abandoned or more than eighty percent

would allow such Structure to exceed the height restrictions of Section IV.B. or otherwise
violate any provision of this FCM Zoning Ordinance. Whether application is made for an
Airport Zoning Permit or not, a Zoning Administrator may order the owner of a nonconforming
Structure, at the owner’s expense, to lower, remove, reconstruct, or equip the same in the
manner necessary to conform to the provisions of this FCM Zoning Ordinance. Prior to issuing
such an order, the city Zoning Administrator shall consult with the Metropolitan Airports
Commission and obtain its consent to the proposed order. Further, prior to the issuance of
any such order, the affected City and the Metropolitan Airports Commission shall enter into an
agreement as to which party is responsible for issuance and enforcement of the order. In the
event the owner of the nonconforming Structure shall neglect or refuse to comply with such
order for ten (10) days after receipt of written notice of such order, the Zoning Administrator
may, by appropriate legal action, proceed to have the nonconforming Structure lowered,
removed, reconstructed, or equipped and assess the cost and expense thereof against the
land on which the Structure is, or was, located. Unless such an assessment is paid within
ninety (90) days from the service of notice thereof on the owner of the land, the sum shall
bear interest at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum from the date the cost and expense
is incurred until paid, and shall be collected in the same manner as are general taxes, all as
authorized by Minnesota Statutes § 360.067.
SECTION IX. VARIANCES

this FCM Zoning Ordinance.
4. Mailing Address. The mailing address for the Board of Adjustment is:
FCM Zoning Ordinance Board of Adjustment
c/o Executive Director
Metropolitan Airports Commission
6040 28th Avenue South
Minneapolis, MN 55450
SECTION XIII. APPEALS
A. Who May Appeal. Any Person aggrieved, or any taxpayer affected by any order,
requirement, decision, or determination of a Zoning Administrator made in administration of
this FCM Zoning Ordinance may appeal to the Board of Adjustment. Such appeals may also
be made by any governing body of a municipality or county, or any joint airport zoning board,
which is of the opinion that an order, requirement, decision, or determination of a Zoning
Administrator is an improper application of this FCM Zoning Ordinance as it concerns such
governing body or board.
B. Commencement Of Appeals. All appeals hereunder must be commenced within thirty (30)
days of a Zoning Administrator’s decision by filing with the Zoning Administrator a notice of
appeal specifying the grounds thereof. The Zoning Administrator shall forthwith transmit to
the Board of Adjustment the notice of appeal and all papers constituting the record upon
which the order, requirement, decision, or determination appealed from was taken.
C. Stay Of Proceedings. An appeal shall stay all proceedings in furtherance of the order,
requirement, decision, or determination appealed from, unless the Zoning Administrator
certifies to the Board of Adjustment, after the notice of appeal has been filed with it, that by
reason of the facts stated in the certificate a stay would, in the Zoning Administrator’s
opinion, cause imminent peril to life or property. In such case, proceedings shall not be
_
FCM Zoning Ordinance Page 20
stayed except by order of the Board of Adjustment on notice to the Zoning Administrator and
on due cause shown.
D. Appeal Procedures. The Board of Adjustment shall fix a reasonable time for hearing an
appeal, give public notice and due notice to the parties in interest, and decide the same
within a reasonable time. At the hearing, any party may appear in Person, by agent, or by
attorney.
E. Decision. The Board of Adjustment may, in conformity with the provisions of this FCM
Zoning Ordinance, affirm or reverse, in whole or in part, or modify the order, requirement,
decision, or determination appealed from and may make such order, requirement, decision, or
determination, as may be appropriate under the circumstances and, to that end, shall have all
the powers of a Zoning Administrator.
SECTION XIV. JUDICIAL REVIEW
Any Person aggrieved, or any taxpayer affected by, any decision of the Board of Adjustment or any
action of the Commissioner, or any governing body of a municipality or county, or any joint airport
zoning board, which is of the opinion that an order, requirement, decision, or determination of the
Board of Adjustment or action of the Commissioner is illegal, may seek judicial review as provided
in Minnesota Statutes § 360.072. The petitioner must exhaust the remedies provided in this FCM
Zoning Ordinance before availing himself or herself of the right to seek judicial review as provided
by this Section XIV.
SECTION XV. PENALTIES AND OTHER REMEDIES
Every Person who violates any provision of this FCM Zoning Ordinance, any zoning approval granted
hereunder, any condition of any zoning approval granted hereunder, or any order, requirement,
decision, or determination of a Zoning Administrator or the Board of Adjustment shall be guilty of a
misdemeanor and shall be punished by a fine, imprisonment, or both of not more than the fine and
imprisonment established for misdemeanors by state law. Each day a violation continues to exist
shall constitute a separate offense for purpose of the penalties and remedies specified in this
section. This FCM Zoning Ordinance may also be enforced through such proceedings for injunctive
relief and other relief as may be proper under Minnesota Statutes § 360.073, as it may be
amended, and other applicable law.
_
FCM Zoning Ordinance Page 21
SECTION XVI. RELATION TO OTHER LAWS, REGULATIONS, AND RULES
A. Compliance Required. In addition to the requirements of this FCM Zoning Ordinance, all
Structures, Trees, and uses shall comply with all other applicable city, local, regional, state, or
federal laws, regulations, and rules, including Minnesota Statutes §§ 360.81-360.91 –
Regulation Of Structure Heights, Minnesota Rules 8800.1100 – Regulation Of Structure
Heights, and 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 77 – Objects Affecting Navigable Airspace.
B. Conflicts With Other Regulations. Where a conflict exists between any provision of this
FCM Zoning Ordinance and any city, local, regional, state, or federal law, regulation, or rule
applicable to the same area, whether the conflict be with respect to the height of Structures
or Trees, the use of land, or any other matter, the more stringent law, regulation, or rule shall
govern and prevail.
C. Current Versions And Citations. All references to city, local, regional, state, and federal
laws, regulations, and rules in this FCM Zoning Ordinance are intended to refer to the most
current version and citation. If such references are no longer valid due to repeal or
renumbering, the new laws, regulations, or rules intended to replace those cited, regardless
of the citation, shall govern.
SECTION XVII. SEVERABILITY
A. Effect Of Taking. In any case in which the provisions of this FCM Zoning Ordinance,
although generally reasonable, are held by a court to interfere with the use or enjoyment of a
particular Structure, Lot , or Tree to such an extent, or to be so onerous in their application to
such a Structure, Lot, or Tree, as to constitute a taking or deprivation of that property in
violation of the constitution of this state or the constitution of the United States, such holding
shall not affect the application of this FCM Zoning Ordinance as to other Structures, Lots, and
Trees, and, to this end, the provisions of this FCM Zoning Ordinance are declared to be
severable.
B. Validity Of Remaining Provisions. Should any section or provision of this FCM Zoning
Ordinance be declared by the courts to be unconstitutional or invalid, such decision shall not
affect the validity of this FCM Zoning Ordinance as a whole or any part thereof other than the
parts so declared to be unconstitutional or invalid.

Subject Amendment to Chanhassen City Code to Ban the Keeping of Birds of Prey
Section PUBLIC HEARINGS Item No: B.10.
Prepared By MacKenzie YoungWalters, Associate
Planner
File No:
PROPOSED MOTION:
The Chanhassen Planning Commission recommends that the City Council adopt the proposed amendment to
Chapter 20 concerning the keeping of birds of prey.
SUMMARY OF REQUEST
In 2009, staff researched the keeping of animals within the City of Chanhassen. At that time, it was determined that
farm animals should be defined and limited to agricultural properties, definitions should be clarified, and wild animals
and birds of prey should be prohibited. When the ordinance was adopted, the final form included the definition of
“birds of prey” but did not include language preventing them from being kept within the city.
Since the initial passing of the ordinance restricting the keeping of animals, changing attitudes have caused the city to
permit the keeping of bees and chickens in previously forbidden areas; however, nothing has changed regarding the
desirability of permitting birds of prey. Staff proposes amending this section of the Code to include the original
prohibition on keeping birds of prey.
A full analysis of can be found in the attached issue paper.
APPLICATION REGULATIONS
Sec. 12. – Rules of Construction and Definitions. Defines the terms household pets, horses, farm animals, wild
animals, birds of prey, and other relevant terms.
Sec. 201001. – Keeping. Stipulates the types of animals that can and cannot be kept within the city, what zones the
animals may be kept in, and the standards that must be met for keeping them.

Ordinance 80 passed in 1986 established the framework of our existing zoning code and limited horses to the A1, A
2, RSF distorts, farm animals to farm property, animals kept as part of a zoo to approved locations, commercial
animals to appropriately zoned locations, and allowed other animals by conditional use permit. A blanket prohibition on
nuisance or dangerous animals was also established.
Ordinance 480 passed in 2009 updated and added necessary definitions, removed the clause allowing other animals by
conditional use permit, prohibited the keeping of wild animals, removed the provision allowing zoo animals, and
removed references to the obsolete A1 district.
Ordinance 612 passed in 2015 established a minimum lot size of 10 acres for the keeping of farm animals.
Ordinance 634 passed in 2018 established standards for the keeping of honeybees on lots of onethird acre or larger.
Ordinance 639 passed in 2019 established standards for the keeping of chickens on lots of one acre or larger.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the city ban the keeping of birds of prey.

Ban Keeping Birds of Prey
ISSUE
Language banning the keeping ofbirds of prey within the city was unintentionally omiued from
the passed version of ordinance number 480.
SUMMARY
In 2009, staff researched the keeping of animals within the City of Chanhassen. At that time, it
was determined that farm animals should be defined and limited to agricultural properties,
definitions should be clarified, and wild animals and birds of prey should be prohibited. When
the ordinance was adopted, the final form included the definition of "birds of prey" but did not
include language preventing them from being kept within the city.
Since the initial passing ofthe ordinance restricting the keeping of animals, changing attitudes
have caused the city to permit the keeping ofbees and chickens in previously forbidden areas;
however, nothing has changed regarding the desirability of permitting birds of prey. Staff
proposes amending this section ofthe Code to include the original prohibition on keeping birds
ofprey.
RELEVANT CITY CODE
Sec. l-2. - Rules of Construction and Definitions. Defines the terms household pets, horses, farm
animals, wild animals, birds of prey, and other relevant terms.
Sec. 20- 1001 . - Keeping. Stipulates the types of animals that can and cannot be kept within the
city, what zones the animals may be kept in, and the standards that must be met for keeping

Amendmenl Hktory
Ordinance 80 passed in 1986 establishing the framework ofour existing zoning code and
limiting horses to the A-1, A-2, RSF distorts, farm animals to farm property, animals kept as part
ofa zoo to approved locations, commercial animals to appropriately zoned locations, and
allowing other animals by conditional use permit. A blanket prohibition on nuisance or
dangerous animals was also established.
Ordinance 480 passed in 2009 updated and added necessary definitions, removed the clause
allowing other animals by conditional use permit, prohibited the keeping of wild animals,
removed the provision allowing zoo animals, and removed references to the obsolete A-1
district.
Ordinance 612 passed in 2015 established a minimum lot size of l0 acres for the keeping of farm
animals
Ordinance 634 passed in 2018 established standards for the keeping of honeybees on lots ofone-
third acre or larger.
Ordinance 639 passed in 2019 established standards for the keeping ofchickens on lots ofone
acre or larger.
ANALYSIS
Staff has reviewed the staff reports, draft ordinances, and verbatim minutes associated with
ordinance 480 and found a discrepancy between two draft versions of the ordinance. It appears
that when a combined ordinance including both the Chapter 20 and Chapter 1 amendments was
created, the prohibition on birds ofprey was omitted. From the text of the reports and verbatim
minutes, this does not appear to have been a deliberate change, and staffbelieves the intention
was to prohibit the keeping of both birds of prey and wild animals.
The keeping ofbirds ofprey is heavily regulated under both state and federal law, with any
prospective falconer needing a state permit, extensive coursework, and a multi-year
apprenticeship. Limits on the number and type of birds owned and the facilities they are kept in
are established and enforced by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources. Further
restrictions on the trapping and keeping ofbirds ofprey are established by various federal laws.
As a matter of practicality, ifany resident ofthe city were believed to be keeping birds ofprey
without a lalconry permit, staff would refer the matter to the DNR for enforcement.
The city feels it is necessary to prohibit the keeping ofbirds ofprey within the city due to the
potential incompatibility between these birds and other animals ttpically kept in a residential
context. Many animals typically kept as household pets have a strong fear reaction to the calls
and sight ofbirds ofprey, and ifa bird ofprey were to escape, it could pose a significant threat

to other animals. In general, staff does not believe it is good practice to allow the keeping of
predatory animals within a suburban area.
I ) Do nothing. Falconry is already heavily licensed and regulated by the state and federal
govemment.
2) Amend Sec. 20-1001 to include the intended provision banning the keeping ofbirds of
prey.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends Altemative 2. The proposed amendments would read as follows
Sec. 20-1001. - Keeping
The following animals may be kept in the city:
(1) Household pets are an allowed use in all zoning districts.
(2) Horses in the A-2, RR and RSF zoning districts in accordance with chapter 5, article
m.
(3) Honey bees in accordance with chapter 5, article IV.
(4) Chickens in accordance with chapter 5, article V.
(5) Farm animals are an allowed use on all farm property zoned A2 or RR, which permit
agricultural use, with a minimum parcel area of ten acres, except as otherwise
specifically provided in the City Code. Farm animals may not be confined in a pen,
feed lot or building within 100 feet ofany residential dwelling not owned or leased by
the farmer.
(6) Wild animals and birds of prey may not be kept in the city.
(7) Animals may only be kept for commercial purposes if authorized in the zoning district
where the animals are located.
(8) Animals may not be kept if they cause a nuisance or endanger the health or safety of
the community.

Subject Amendment to Chanhassen City Code to Remove Obsolete Parking Lot Configuration Graphic
Section PUBLIC HEARINGS Item No: B.11.
Prepared By MacKenzie YoungWalters, Associate
Planner
File No:
PROPOSED MOTION:
The Chanhassen Planning Commission recommends that the City Council approve the proposed amendment to
Chapter 20 concerning parking stall and drive aisle standards.
SUMMARY OF REQUEST
During the review of a recently proposed parking lot plan, Engineering staff noticed that there was a discrepancy
between the tables and clarifying graphic in section 201118. The graphic seemed to indicate that an aisle width of 13.5
feet would be permitted; however, the text of the ordinance required a 15foot aisle width. The City Attorney advised
staff that the most recent ordinance would take precedence and recommended that the conflicting graphic be removed.
A full analysis can be found in the attached issue paper.
APPLICATION REGULATIONS
Sec. 201118. – Design of Parking Stalls and Drive Aisles. Lists the design standards for parking lot stalls and drive
aisles, and contains clarifying tables and graphics.

Amendment History
Ordinance 80 passed in 1986 established the framework of our existing zoning code and required parking stalls and
areas to meet the standards set forth in the city’s Design Handbook.
Ordinance 117 passed in 1990 added specific parking lot design standards to the City Code. These standards required
an 8.5foot by 18foot parking stall and allowed for 45degree angle parking stalls to 13.5foot wide oneway aisles. A
clarifying graphic was adopted as part of this ordinance.

ISSUE
The clariSing graphic in section 20-1 I l8 ofthe City Code is from 1990 and does not depict the
ordinance's current standards.
SUMMARY
During the review ofa recently proposed parking lot plan, Engineering stalf noticed that there was a
discrepancy between the tables and clariffing graphic in section 20- 1 1 18. The graphic seemed to
indicate that an aisle width of 13.5 feet would be permitted; however, the text ofthe ordinance
required a lS-foot aisle width. The City Attomey advised staff that the most recent ordinance would
take precedence and recommended that the conflicting graphic be removed.
Sec. 20-l 1 18. - Design of Parking Stalls and Drive Aisles. Lists the desigr standards for parking lot
stalls and drive aisles, and contains clarifying tables and graphics.
Amendment Hklory
Ordinance 80 passed in 1986 establishing the framework ofour existing zoning code and requiring
parking stalls and areas to meet the standards set forth in the city's Design Handbook.
Ordinance I I 7 passed in 1990 added specific parking lot design standards to the City Code. These
standards required an 8.5-foot by 18-foot parking stall and allowed for 45-degree angle parking stalls
to 13.5-foot wide one-way aisles. A clari$ing graphic was adopted as part ofthis ordinance.
Ordinance 321 passed in 2001 removed a provision allowing for aisles not located between two rows
of ninety-degree angle parking spaces to be twenty-two feet wide.
Ordinance 377 passed in 2004 changed the stall requirements to 9-feet by l8-feet and increased the
aisle width for 45-degree angle parking stalls to l5 feet. The pre-existing graphic was not mentioned
or depicted in the amending ordinance.

ANALYSIS
It appears that when ordinance 377 was passed it did not contain any provision for removing or
altering the graphic appearing in section 20-l I 18. The graphic was likely overlooked due to its
location at the end ofthe section; below the section on compact car parking. This location, combined
with the fact that the graphic is somewhat difficult to decipher, may have caused staff to believe it
depicted the compact car standards and was not related to general parking standards. Regardless of
the reason for the omission since the graphic was not specifically addressed by the amending
ordinance, it was not removed.
Staff believes that the existing tables and text ofsection 20-1 I 18 provide sufficient clarity that a
graphic is unnecessary, and that given the difficulties and expense associated with creating and
codifuing a new graphic, the simplest way to resolve the discrepancy between the graphic and text
would be to remove the graphic.
ALTERNATIVES
l) Amend section 20-l 1 18 to remove the conflicting graphic.
2) Create a new graphic and amend the ordinance to replace the incorrect graphic with a correct
graphic.
Staff recommends Altemative 1. The proposed amendments would read as follows:
Sec. 20-1118. - Design of parking stalls and drive aisles.
(a) Parking spaces shall be designed in conformance with the following: parking stalls shall have a
minimum paved dimension of nine feet by l8 feet. Stall and aisle dimensions shall be as noted

PUBLIC HEARING:
CONSIDER A REQUEST FOR A REAR YARD SETBACK VARIANCE TO
CONSTRUCT A COVERED PORCH AND WALKWAY AT 832 WOODHILL DRIVE.
MacKenzie Walters presented the staff report on this item. The applicant, Noreen Hoft discussed
the key criteria of harmony, adverse impact, practical difficulty and economics as it relates to
their variance request. She showed a short video presented by Dr. Martha Nance, a Neurologist
with the Huntington’s Disease Center of Excellence at HCMC, describing the progression of her
husband’s disease. Chairman Weick asked for clarification on the alternatives being presented
before opening the public hearing. Jay Aos with AOS Construction explained why the proposed
location for the screened in porch is the best location on the property. Brigid Klaysmat, 800
Woodhill Drive asked that the Planning Commission approve the variance to provide the Hoft’s
with a screened porch to enjoy being outside. Shelby Manion, 825 Lone Eagle voiced her
support for the variance as the best alternative for this piece of property. Chairman Weick closed
the public hearing. After comments from commissioners the following motion was made.
Tietz moved, Undestad seconded that the Chanhassen Board of Appeals and Adjustments
approves a 6 foot rear setback variance for the construction of a screened porch subject to
the following conditions, and adopts the attached Findings of Fact and Decision:
1. The applicant must apply for and receive a building permit.
2. Provide an updated survey with permit submittals that illustrates all existing utilities on
site and is in accordance with City Code of Ordinances Sec. 7-19.
3. A 10 foot wide utility easement shall be recorded in perpetuity with the property for the
maintenance and repair of the storm sewer pipe and manhole located on the subject

STAFF PRESENT: Kate Aanenson, Community Development Director; and MacKenzie
Walters, Associate Planner
PUBLIC HEARING:
CONSIDER A REQUEST FOR A REAR YARD SETBACK VARIANCE TO
CONSTRUCT A COVERED PORCH AND WALKWAY AT 832 WOODHILL DRIVE.
Weick: This is Planning Case 2019-16 and it will be in front of City Council November 12,
2019.
Walters: If appealed.
Weick: If appealed. Thank you. MacKenzie I will let you begin, thank you.
Walters: Thank you. So as mentioned this is Planning Case 2019-16. It is a request for a 6 foot
rear setback variance for a property located at 832 Woodhill Drive and it’s for the construction of
a screened porch and walkway. The property is located in the RSF, Residential Single Family
zoning district. This district has a minimum required lot size of 15,000 square feet, has 30 foot
front and rear setbacks, 10 foot side yard setbacks, allows 30 percent lot cover, with a maximum
of 25 percent being impervious coverage. The site, oops I did not change…from last time. My
apologies but the picture is right. So this is 832 Woodhill. Not 690 Carver Beach Road. The
area for this site is 22,000 square feet. It has 100 foot lot depth. 120 foot lot width. Staff
estimated it at about 13.2 percent lot cover so well under the 25 percent impervious limit. The
property currently meets all setbacks. The rear yard setback is shown here in red and the
applicant’s proposed screen porch and walkway is in blue and open walkway is in green. The
open walkway would be allowed under the zoning code and about half of the screen porch and a
couple feet of the screened walkway would be subject to the variance. So the applicant is
proposing adding a screen porch and walkway off the rear of the home. Again the red line is the
30 foot rear setback so you can see in blue where it would be encroaching into the required
setback. The applicant’s justification for the variance request is that they did not choose the
configuration of the home or the placement on the lot. That the lot does not meet the required
125 foot lot depth for the residential single family district. The proposed location would be
screened from neighboring properties by existing trees and landscaping. They have noted that
Chanhassen Planning Commission – October 15, 2019
2
alternative configurations and placements are unviable due to the husband’s limited mobility and
the location of living room windows and other grading on the site. When staff looked over the
request staff believes there are alternative locations that a very similar or identical structure could
be placed that meets city code. Open decks for example would be permitted as proposed without
any variance. In terms of some of some of the alternatives, Alternative A here comes off of a
door they showed here. This could be an entirely enclosed and screened porch again without a
variance being required. An open walkway could be utilized here to access a 12 by 12 screen
porch without requiring a variance. Similar to the one in red. If the commission were to feel that
a screen walkway is needed that can be accommodated with a 2 ½ foot rear yard variance if they
use a different positioning for the screen porch. Staff does agree that the lot is under the
district’s minimum lot depth. However we feel that the oversized lot width accommodates that
and provides a sufficient building pad to meet code. Because staff believes there is an ability to
construct a proposed improvement or a similar feature without a variance staff must recommend
denial of the requested variance. If you have any questions I’d be happy to take them at this
time.
Weick: Anyone have questions for MacKenzie?
Reeder: The two lots behind this house, do you have that? Yeah.
Walters: I think that’s the best picture I have in here of them.
Reeder: Is that a house that you’re pointing at or is that a garage?
Walters: I believe this is the garage. This is the garage. This would be the house on the
property to the northeast and this would be the residence on the property to the northwest.
Reeder: Okay. And those houses appear to be very much up to the street level as opposed to,
they have a huge back yard is that accurate?
Walters: Yeah looking at the houses on the block it looks like non-conforming front yard
setbacks are much more typical than non-conforming rear yard setbacks. Things tend to be
placed forward on the lot rather than pushed back.
Reeder: Okay.
Weick: MacKenzie I do have a question for you. Is the covered, and I can’t remember if you
mentioned this or not but is the covered walkway and deck considered open or closed?
Walters: They are considered closed. If there’s a rough in screen it’s not considered to be an
open deck or porch so then it’s not entitled to the 5 foot encroachment into the rear yard.
Weick: Okay. Even if it’s not screened? A roof would be.
Chanhassen Planning Commission – October 15, 2019
3
Walters: Yeah if there’s a roof we’d have to consider it a closed.
Weick: Okay. That’s all I had. Any questions to my left? Thank you MacKenzie. At this time
I would invite the applicant to make a presentation.
Noreen Hoft: Thank you very much Steve.
Weick: You bet,
Noreen Hoft: And hello John, Mark, Doug, Kate and MacKenzie, thank you very much. So my
name is Noreen Hoft. I’m the homeowner.
Weick: Can you speak into the microphone because it gets recorded.
Noreen Hoft: …so I’m new at this. I’m not used to making presentations in conference rooms
not to be recorded for public record. So I’m Noreen Hoft, the homeowner at 832 Woodhill Drive
and I’m here to kind of embellish a little bit some of the items that I included in our written
justification for the variance and to offer some background information and detail about why we
really want this. So let me just suggest that the intent for this presentation is to really further
address those key criteria, harmony and adverse impact. Practical difficulty and economics.
Kindly enough Bob Generous in my pre-meeting with him pointed out that those are the ones I
should really focus when I presented to this commission tonight. So what I want to do is first
introduce the stakeholders who are in the room who are the public who are attending this
evening. I’ll address those key criteria and then answer any final questions that you any of the
commission members might have. Does that sound okay?
Weick: Yes.
Noreen Hoft: Okay. So hopefully by the end of our time together tonight you’ll feel strongly
that the project and it’s associated variances or variance request not only meet the criteria but
also enhances a Chan vision which I see was in the beginning of your presentation as well. That
Chanhassen is a community for life. Providing for today and planning for tomorrow and in our
case it’s the life that my husband and I have been living for almost 20 years now in Chanhassen
and hope to have for at least another 10 to 15 depending upon the progression of his disease. So
that’s what I’m hoping for. We’ll see if I get there. Now did anybody notice this year that there
were more insects than usual? Anybody? Mosquitoes. Gnats. Bees. Yes, yes people on
Woodhill Drive did in this wet year so you know certainly that recent condition has sparked the
interest of having a screened area and I just say that because I thought I might have a little
audience engagement and they did. So let’s talk about the adverse impact. Stakeholders in the
room are two adjacent property owners. Doug you asked about the family behind us. In the
room we have Shelby Manion. Kevin and Shelby have been living in that home since 1990. It’s
825 Lone Eagle and we share together 140 feet of our back lot line so they have 70 percent. The
Chanhassen Planning Commission – October 15, 2019
4
other neighbor up the hill has 30 percent. Also represented tonight is a stakeholder is Brigid
Klaysmat. Steve and Brigid have been living on Woodhill Drive since 1994. Is that when you
moved in? Can’t remember. Yes ’94 but have been in their current home since 2003. They’re
at 800 Woodhill Drive and they share 100 feet of our side lot line and that’s 100 percent of that
based on the way that area of Carver Beach was plotted and the property line we share runs south
to north. So when the public called for by the Chair then Brigid and Shelby can answer
questions and/or address the group. Also in the room as a stakeholder is the contractor that we
have chosen. Jay Aos. Aos Construction is in Burnsville, Minnesota. He’s a general contractor
who has over 15 years experience. Two full time master carpenters in addition to him and he has
outside expert resources that he can tap into when needed like a structural engineer but what I
really like most about Jay is his values. Integrity. Quality. Communications. He has a strong
Christian background that I think that helps those of us who deal with him in a customer basis to
feel good about the work that he will do and that they will work together. So those are the
stakeholders in the room. So MacKenzie very kindly talked about the proposed placement that
we have submitted and what Bob Generous had originally estimated was a 6 foot variance and a
5 foot variance but MacKenzie I think has given a much clearer detail when he said the actual 30
foot setback line through the diagrams but wondering if there was any questions about that.
Weick: And we’ll, the way we would normally is we’ll let you make a presentation. We’ll make
notes of our questions and we’ll ask them at that time. It just, it will make it flow a little.
Noreen Hoft: Little easier for you guys?
Weick: Yep.
Noreen Hoft: Okay great, thanks. So MacKenzie already showed you this picture. What you
can’t see very well are the pencil marks that I did at the top of this particular diagram with
Shelby’s home and her garage and then the garage and the home next door which Doug was
referring to. It’s like where are those houses placed and that’s our best rough, rough estimate.
No measurements. No yeah, no survey. That’s just about where they are. Okay so that was my
original version of the design diagram. And you might be wondering why didn’t I actually have
an architectural rendering or the design from Jay, the builder and that’s because until I get your
approval, hopefully we’ll do that today, then I didn’t want him to invest his time nor did I want
to invest any of our funds beyond this actual hearing and our request for the variance. Okay so
there’s my house. I don’t know if any of you have had a chance to be on the property. This is a
downhill view so we’re looking from the east to the west and you can see how the, there’s a
setback of sorts with the sliding glass doors in our dining room that really was put there by the
original family who designed this home and began to build it for the purposes of having a deck.
And then the side of the house you can see where I think what proposal was that MacKenzie?
Was it letter, it was red.
Walters: I believe it was Alternative C.
Chanhassen Planning Commission – October 15, 2019
5
Noreen Hoft: Alternative C so you can see what that would look like on the side of the house so
just an idea of what the home looks like in it’s current condition. So here’s again a series of
pictures for you. So the view on the left is, if you’re standing looking at my kitchen window and
then you just stay in place and turn 180 degrees and look at Shelby’s property, the Manion’s
property…that’s the view you see. So from my kitchen window I see their garage. From the
sliding glass doors I still see their garage. And then from the other end, it’s hard to see. That
makes me go cross eyed but you’ll see that we’re beginning to have a view from that far wall,
which is the east, northeast wall to the space between the garage and the house. So I offer those
pictures to say that in your proposed placement of this porch that is screened and roofed, it’s all
facing a garage and an open space on their lot. That’s just kind of a FYI. So my request is for
the north placement and I didn’t know about the placement by the garage which is in green I
believe and that was A, B or C?
Walters: That was A.
Noreen Hoft: A okay so I didn’t know that one. So this is, give me a letter please MacKenzie.
Walters: This would be B.
Noreen Hoft: B, okay. Alright. From B you can see that we have, see the two trees on the right.
I would have to take those down to be able to do the actual deck off of the face of the house that
is east. That’s another view of it and downhill there from the little bridge, and as you can see the
sunshine in the distance that’s the Klaysmat’s house. Okay so just some pictures. Any of those
you want to see again or have a need to take a look at? Does it give you a picture? At least in
your mind of what we’re talking about. Okay, great. Alright so let’s move onto the criteria. So
practical difficulties. In complying with the zoning ordinance that means that the property owner
proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner not permitted by this chapter so in my effort
to submit the application to present I’m trying to be reasonable. We did, and already MacKenzie
did a great job of presenting that you know we want an outdoor space that’s accessible to my
disabled spouse and enjoyable for both of us and my little joke about the bugs that fell flat was
really that I want to be outside in a screened in area. The older I get the more I hate the bugs.
The slope of our property is also an issue. The further downhill you go you know the more water
runoff. The more soil erosion. The closer we get to the sewer line. All those good things and
MacKenzie again very well presented it. We didn’t build the house. We bought it when it was
finished but we are the first occupants so we didn’t choose it’s shape, it’s location or anything of
that nature. So Huntington’s Disease which is the condition that my husband has. You know
you might be wondering is this appeal for us to have easier access for him which would be, he’s
now using a walker. A wheeled walker when he’s out. He can get around a little bit in the house
but he’s going to be wheelchair bound and so to get onto the deck, the one that we’ve proposed,
he would be able to wheel himself or I would wheel him out the sliding glass door to that
walkway. Our hope is that it would be screened and roofed so that there’s not a lot of bugs. We
need the door open as long as it takes to get the wheelchair out and turn him around. So you also
might be wondering you know why would we approve this for you when the next resident or
Chanhassen Planning Commission – October 15, 2019
6
homeowner might not have physical difficulty and I think that that’s a you know 50/50 shot. We
don’t know who will own the house next so if you approve the screened porch areas then it
would be accessible for them. So I would remiss if I didn’t take 5 minutes and ask you to bear
with me for 5 minutes to have you see a short video on You Tube and the neurologist who’s
presenting is Dr. Martha Nance and she is my husband’s Neurologist. She heads the
Huntington’s Disease Society of America. She is a physician who runs the Huntington’s Disease
Center of Excellence at HCMC and she very easily and quickly just kind of describes what this
disease is about.
A short video was shown at this point in the meeting.
Noreen Hoft: Thank you MacKenzie and thank you for listening. Sorry that the buffering didn’t
allow you to see her actually speaking. So my husband is between Stages 3 and 4. His
symptoms first showed up in 2009 so we’re about 10 years into the symptoms and she said 15 to
20 years is the usual cycle. With our eldercare attorney we have decided we’re going out feet
first in Chanhassen. That’s where we’re going to be. We’re going to be in that house as long as
we possibly can and I’m prepared to be the caregiver at home for my husband as long as I
possibly can. So having this screened porch area will be for us something that will help us when
we’re homebound to give us some outdoor space where he can go and I can go. I can get away.
My little get away in the back yard as well. So I know MacKenzie had said some people might
exaggerate, he mentioned to me when we had a brief conversation, some people might try to
really stretch the truth of the disease or condition and that’s why I wanted to just have that 5
minutes of You Tube for you to hear from the expert about what it’s about. So practical
difficulties. So either the garage placement or downhill on the east side, you know I mentioned
the slope of our property. We have several trees we’d have to remove. We’re concerned about
erosion. If they do a free standing construction Jay will speak to the expense of that and then
we’re getting down into the storm sewer area. You know it used to be a creek back there. Jerry
Johnson is our neighbor to the west. He was 2 months old when he moved to that property 83
years ago. Do you know Jerry? He’s a good guy. He’s a good guy. So you know he’ll tell us
all kinds of history. There was a pond up here. There was a stream over here and you know so
knows every, probably every inch of our immediate neighborhood. So we even have addressed
that with a dry creek bed on our property as well to try to move that water along. So there are
both practical difficulties and economic impact from those items I have on this supplemental
information about the slope of our property. So here is a picture of the sewer. Do you see the
sewer cap? Or what you call a manhole that’s in our back yard and to the left of it you can see
our dry stream bed. And it would be almost encroaching on that with something on the east side.
Now this is more from a harmony and adverse impact perspective. And this is really an opinion,
not a matter of fact but I think that that screened porch out there in the middle of the woods will
stick out like a sore thumb. If it’s tucked behind on the north side you know it’s tucked away. It
will encroach on the wooded environment enjoyed by both the Manion’s as well as the
Klaysmat’s and us. It also may block the Manion’s view of the wooded environment so I think
that the north placement is much better than the east and the garage placement is not good for my
husband. So this is a picture from the Manion’s deck to our property and you can see it’s pretty
Chanhassen Planning Commission – October 15, 2019
7
wooded and so if we place that as proposed then that would be their view. Those trees of course
will grow up but there’s plenty of them to make it private for us and you know for Shelby and
Kevin, private for them. Okay so again harmony and adverse impact. For the neighbors who are
here, 800 Woodhill and 825 Lone Eagle, others in the immediate surroundings I did not ask to
come tonight but they would have been willing. The neighbor who is west of Shelby who is 855
Lone Eagle, Jerry at 6941 Nez Perce. 843 Woodhill Drive which has a member of the sheriff’s
department, Don Ennenga and 829 Woodhill Drive which is the Mason’s former house, now
occupied by a young family. So I didn’t get emails as MacKenzie had suggested but those folks
are all in favor and the other neighbors are also here who can confirm and validate that that’s
what those people have said to them verbally but if you need additional things in writing we’ll be
happy to provide that. Okay so, that’s basically the supplemental information and my appeal to
you for the variance to get approved and I just want to open it up for questions from the
commission to me and we’ll go from there.
Weick: Well thank you and I, sometimes I say I don’t speak on behalf of all the commissioners
but I think I do speak on behalf of all the commissioners. I appreciate the work you’ve put into
this. From all the angles and certainly you know taking a look at how it would affect your
neighbors, your property and then also the needs that you have. The personal needs you have.
Noreen Hoft: Thank you Steve.
Weick: In order to want to do something like this so I think we all appreciate that. But we also
you know have other things to consider as well so just from a question standpoint, you
mentioned the tree removal. With your proposed location of the walkway and the screened
porch, and we could certainly ask your contractor as well but would you have to remove any
trees of significance to do that?
Noreen Hoft: They would be maybe an inch and a half in diameter that I could actually take you
know a hand saw to myself.
Weick: Okay.
Noreen Hoft: But the other side, east side has full sized trees.
Weick: Okay. And the east side is the alternative C correct and a little bit of B? That’s the east
right?
Reeder: Yeah, that’s the east.
Noreen Hoft: That would be helpful. Thanks very much MacKenzie. Yeah so C is the east side.
Weick: C and then B is kind of sticking out there on the east.

Noreen Hoft: Yes that’s the sore thumb.
Weick: Okay. And then you mentioned that you didn’t really have a chance, or you did to look
at Option A.
Noreen Hoft: Yeah I didn’t know that Option A was being considered. All things considered in
terms of my husband’s disability, you know and again Jay can probably speak to this more than I
can. We have a rather narrow kitchen door that his wheelchair may not go out as well as it will a
sliding glass door.
Weick: Okay. Those were kind of some of the things I wanted to clarify but I certainly would
open it up, commissioners just jump in and speak up if you have questions.
Tietz: No, well done.
Noreen Hoft: Thank you.
Weick: Mr. Reeder, anything?
Reeder: Well you haven’t seen A before? What’s your thought about A?
Noreen Hoft: Well that was the one to which I referred that the egress from my kitchen to
behind the garage would have just a single narrow door through which a wheelchair would not
move. You know so I wouldn’t be able to get a wheelchair out there. I can get a wheelchair out
the sliding glass door and also I think Doug since this is the first time I’ve seen it, again it’s more
opinion than having to do with code because by code it works right. So in terms of my interest
for the aesthetics and you know with going to the option that we proposed you’re kind of in a
treehouse. You know you’re up one level. We’ll have a view over the top of the Klaysmat’s
house. You know we’ll actually be able to see over their house. Watch the leaves change. It
would be a whole different experience behind the garage so aesthetics wise it doesn’t appeal to
me at all.
Weick: Any follow up on that or? No, okay thank you.
Noreen Hoft: You’re welcomed. Thank you for your time and attention. I appreciate it.
Weick: Appreciate it. At this time we will open the public hearing portion and invite anyone to
come forward who would like to offer an opinion on this item. Just do state your name and
address for the record and microphone when you come up.
Jay Aos: I’m Jay Aos, owner of AOS Construction. Noreen has proposed hiring to me to do this
project for her. So I have a number of thoughts, some of them have developed as we have
discussed and things and seen the presentation through the evening. The primary concern I
Chanhassen Planning Commission – October 15, 2019

would have with the proposed red Alternative C location, the grading on the end of the house
there is fairly steep and there’s already a lot of erosion from water coming across the back yard
and running right through that area that I’d be concerned about putting footings on that slope and
the fact that there is a slope there, earth tends to travel downhill slowly over time and shift and
settle and so with those footings I’d be concerned about them moving minutely inches over the
years to where the posts would get out of plum and the addition could sag. Plus the concern of
the erosion of water around those footings. Up on the back yard where we would like to build
the screened porch we have a more level surface and water has been diverted away from that
area by landscaping specifically to create a space that would work well for that in the past so.
That’s my primary concern about Alternative C. Secondly my concern about Alternative A in
blue behind the garage, the design of that space doesn’t allow it to really be usable for a screened
porch especially with access for Noreen’s husband to get down there. The reason I say that is the
kitchen door comes out at a floor level that is a couple feet off of the ground and the garage soffit
across the back there is only about 8 or 9 feet off the ground as it is so we would be trying to
build a screened porch with a soffit coming out at about 6 1/2 to 7 feet above the floor of the
screen porch in order to keep that floor level so we didn’t have stairs or a ramp to transverse with
a wheelchair which ramps are doable but not ideal. So it makes it very hard, especially in light
of the fact that that door is narrow there. If they did go out the patio door where the green
walkway is they’d have to go quite a ways around an unscreened area through the bugs to get to
a screened porch in the back yard behind the garage. So there’s that design consideration. It just
makes it very, very hard to have a useable space there that really functions well for them. In fact
if it were my home personally I would not want to use that space because it’d be so far to get to it
and the wheelchair would present such a difficulty to get there. Those would be my main
concerns about those two alternatives. I do believe that the proposed location that we would like
to build, which would require the 6 foot variance, is by far the most comfortable, enjoyable
scenario. One of the reasons I say that, I know that Noreen’s husband has been a hunter
throughout his life and an outdoorsman. Avid outdoorsman. I’m a hunter myself. I love the
woods and for, I can only imagine if I were in a stage of Huntington’s Disease like he’s in, he
would want as much time outside in his back yard in those trees and woods as he could get
because that’s a place that he loves. Off the end of house in the red zone you’d have a lot of
view of the yard and the street. Back in the green where we would like to build it you’re very
much secluded from that and you’re really in the woods. I think it makes a very ideal spot for
him, highly preferable than either other location as well. Any questions for me?
Noreen Hoft: Jay could you make a comment that B in the green is a free standing 12 by 12 off
the side the house. It’s like, there’s no wall.
Jay Aos: I see. Okay. So the free standing idea, that would add a significant cost to the project
because we would have to add structural bracing to a free standing structure as well as additional
footings and posts. That would make this project quite a bit more expensive for the Hoft’s than
what we are proposing to do.
Weick: Okay. Any questions? Thank you.

Jay Aos: Okay.
Weick: Appreciate it.
Jay Aos: Yep.
Weick: Hello and welcome.
Brigid Klaysmat: Hello. I’m Brigid Klaysmat at 800 Woodhill Drive.
Weick: Welcome.
Brigid Klaysmat: So I think that, I mean watching Mike go through this process of this illness
and seeing all the things taken away from him I ditto what Jay said that having that screened
porch would be very important for him to be outside and having the ease of getting through is
super important and I think that it would be a great addition for his life and to make her life
better and I think that you guys should give her the variance.
Weick: Thank you.
Brigid Klaysmat: My occupation is a physical therapist so I have some experience with people
with neurological diseases and see how they affect families and mobility and I think like I said it
would be a really good addition. Really help them out. Thanks.
Weick: Thank you.
Shelby Manion: Hi.
Weick: Hello and welcome.
Shelby Manion: Thank you. My name is Shelby Manion and I live at 825 Lone Eagle and I
don’t know how many of you are even aware of the Carver Beach area and stuff and so, and if
you are you then you know the history that all of our lots were camp sites so that’s why all of our
lots are 20 feet wide by 100 to 125 feet deep. Those are camp sites. So yes we’ve lived there for
going on 30 years and the proposed suggestions I personally feel just do not fly. Do not fly at
all. Especially the one on the west side because the whole idea is to be, to be able to experience
the nature and if you put that on the west side off behind the garage there are no trees there. That
is a more open area. That would be completely in the sun. You would see the street.
Everything. So right away when I saw that I saw that I went, no way. The other side I could see
but there again the point is of the grade. Now Noreen and Mike have put a lot into their yard in
the last 2 years but a lot this year to help with the runoff that has, the natural river that ran
through there from the day we moved in we would watch the river run down the hill and so to,
Chanhassen Planning Commission – October 15, 2019

with that and they put in that dry river bed. That would then go into the, all the work that
they’ve done to try to preserve the land and the neighbor’s property so they don’t get water in
their basements. Behind where they’re proposing to do this work there, it’s wooded and you
have all different size trees and everything and we as neighbors take care of those trees. We
spent one weekend pruning and taking out dead trees and taking down little trees so that it would
give the chance for the other trees to grow. So I feel that we as a community on our two blocks
and our back doors take care of each other and my husband and I are saying give them the
variance. It’s a go. Thank you.
Weick: Thank you. And seeing no one else coming forward I will close the public portion of the
hear and now turn to the commissioners for comment, consideration, thoughts, motions.
Tietz: Well comments Steve.
Weick: Yeah.
Tietz: This is truly a unique neighborhood. I don’t think you will ever see one like it again. It
dates back to what, 1927 I think and I think it was the Star and Tribune that used to sell, sold
those lots to get people out of the city.
Reeder: Is that right?
Tietz: Yeah. And it, I mean we have a little bit of everything and I think dealing with a little bit
of everything we have to be a little bit more lenient because everything is an odd shape and you
know we just can’t apply today’s standards very well in an environment such as that. You know
the site is, I’ve looked at it. It’s wooded. There’s a lot of privacy there. I really don’t think that
this has an encumbrance upon anybody. I think it’s an appropriate addition to their home given
what their needs are and I think it looks like that back side would be for the contractor to build
onto that, getting roof lines tied in is going to be a lot easier than trying to do it, you know roof
lines are always difficult to try to match up and there’s a high wall in that, it appears to be a high
wall in that side of the home which would make it not easy but adaptable so those are my
comments.
Weick: And you know clearly we have agreement amongst neighbors about how this would
look. The other thing we have to consider is you know in the future different people move in and
behind and just to make sure that we’re considering you know future homeowners. Not in this
house but in neighboring houses as well. Not that this is, you know I’m not implying that this is
a significant encroachment on the, onto the property but it is a variance and so those are the
things we do need to consider as we consider variances. And again just for clarification, if we
look at the actual, for you guys I’m on page 2 of 7. We’re just talking about the blue section that
juts out. The green part is open as I understand it. So we’re really talking about the blue. The
blue that stands out. And I didn’t think about shape but you would know about costs more than I
would. I assume that there’s cost ramifications if you change the shape, right?
Chanhassen Planning Commission – October 15, 2019
12
Jay Aos: Yep.
Undestad: And I think I would agree with Commissioner Tietz on that too that you know we’ve
seen a number of variances coming through in the Carver Beach and everything down there is
kind of a mix and match so, you know then again I think the neighbors have all communicated
well with each other in there, that they’re all kind of in agreement with it and.
Weick: Okay.
Undestad: And I think the other fact that they’ve done what they could to take care of that water
runoff and stuff I don’t think we want to add to that running out the back and down the hill and
anything they do back there to get equipment or anything to build that deck out the back is going
to turn up that ground and there could be more issues.
Weick: Okay.
Reeder: I agree. I think because of the way the lot is shaped they have an unusually small back
yard to deal with to put a porch which is where you want to put a porch so I think the 6 foot
encroachment is not very drastic, especially considering where the houses behind area. I mean
this is facing their garages and I think it’s, no matter who lives in any of the houses I don’t think
that we’re putting something real close to somebody else and they’ve got to deal with the way
the lots are laid out and you know so I’m okay. I think the justification is the shape of the lot
that they’re on and where the house is and I’m okay.
Tietz: Well should I make a motion?
Weick: The floor is your’s.
Tietz: Okay. The Chanhassen Board of Appeals and Adjustments approves, oh a double
approves here. Approves and approves. We’re approving and approving the 6 foot rear yard
setback variance for the construction of a screened porch and walkway subject to the conditions
of approval and adopt the attached Findings of Fact and Decision.
Weick: We have a valid motion. Do we have a second?
Undestad: Second.
Weick: We also have a second. I will pause for any comment. Thoughts? Hearing none.
Tietz moved, Undestad seconded that the Chanhassen Board of Appeals and Adjustments
approves a 6 foot rear setback variance for the construction of a screened porch subject to
the following conditions, and adopts the attached Findings of Fact and Decision:
Chanhassen Planning Commission – October 15, 2019

APPROVAL OF MINUTES. Commissioner Undestad noted the verbatim and summary
Minutes of the Planning Commission meeting dated October 1, 2019 as presented.
COMMISSION PRESENTATIONS. None.
ADMINISTRATIVE PRESENTATIONS.
Aanenson: I have a couple updates if I may.
Weick: Yes.
Aanenson: So our next meeting we have the extra week so our next meeting would be
November 5th but because that’s an election day we will not be meeting so we actually have 4
weeks off. We do have items coming on your next meeting which would be November 19th so at
that meeting we’re going to do some code amendments.
Walters: Eleven.
Aanenson: Eleven code amendments. Those were presented to the City Council last night to get
their feedback so there’s some random ones all over and just give you an update of some other
stuff that’s going on around town.
Weick: Yes.
Chanhassen Planning Commission – October 15, 2019

Aanenson: The Venue is pretty much almost all leased out. That’s been.
Weick: Wow.
Aanenson: Yes one of our former planning commissioners moved her mother there and they just
love it. She’s real happy to have her mother in town and can walk to everything. Having said
that Aldi’s is having their grand opening on Thursday so let you know about that. Riley
Crossings, we did take a tour of that with our commission’s tours. They have a temporary CO so
they are moving equipment in. Getting some of the training in but they’re hoping here in the
next couple weeks to have their permanent CO so they can have residents move in. They’re
giving tours also as part of that temporary CO so they’re well on their way to completion. I also
want, maybe you’ve seen it but the, the construction of the Tequila Butcher, the parking lot
going across the street that you saw the 24 spaces and they’re working on their remodeling so
that’s under way. Last night at the City Council they approved a liquor license for Jimmie’s Old
Southern BBQ. That’s kind of a takeoff of Famous Dave’s so it’s going in the old Cheers
building on West 79th so we’re going to be restauranted up on West 79th so there’s about 6 liquor
and seating for about 60 so. Then there’s also a couple other projects under way. If you recall
Control Concepts came back with a smaller building and then less grading to get that trail
crossing so they’re working on that grading right now but that project is also underway. So I
think that’s the main stuff I wanted to talk to you about so we do anticipate for sure the code
amendments on the 19th. The only wild card out there is the Perkin’s site. They’re looking at
potentially another user there. They may want a drive thru. It’s a PUD that restricts it to 2 drive
thru’s so we’re asking them to do a traffic study. One of the users is pretty intensive for traffic
so we’ll see kind of so I think they’re just going to try to show what the outside numbers would
be and then kind of see what they can get for the users, and I can’t read your writing.
Walters: Oh a sign amendment that might be in there as well.
Aanenson: Oh yeah, so as part of that they want to do a tall, another tall pylon sign. We do
allow pylon signs along Highway 5 so. And then we do anticipate the brewery application
coming in December and we thought they might be in in November but it looks like they’ll
probably be in December so they’ve been working. We’ve had a couple meetings with them so
we’ll see where they’re at so that’s where we are on applications. I don’t know if you have any
questions for us of things that are going on around town but. Alright that’s all I had. Thank you.
Weick: Thank you Kate. With that I will accept a motion for adjournment.
Undestad moved, Reeder seconded to adjourn the meeting. All voted in favor and the
motion carried unanimously with a vote of 4 to 0. The Planning Commission meeting was
adjourned at 7:55 p.m.
