V. PUBLIC HEARINGS A. VARIANCE #2020-03 Location: 18704 Melrose Chase
Request for:
• Variance from Shoreland Code to allow impervious surface coverage to exceed the City Code requirement of 30%
The applicant is requesting a variance from impervious surface coverage to add a pool and small equipment pad to the property. The applicant is proposing to construct stormwater basins to retain run-off from all impervious surfaces, both existing and proposed, on the lot over the 30 percent allowed by City Code. The property is surrounded by a golf course on 3 sides, and the surrounding
open space provides greater opportunity for run-off to infiltrate into the ground and pollutants to be
removed. Variances may be granted when they are in harmony with the general purposes and intent of the ordinance and meet statutory criteria. The proposed variance meets the general purposes and
statutory criteria as identified in the Staff Report dated 11/9/2020.
Staff recommends approval. MOTION 1: Move to close the public hearing.
MOTION 2: Move to approve Variance Request #2020-03 based on information outlined in the Planning Department Staff Report dated November 9, 2020 and finding and Conditions of Final Order #2020-03.

VI. PLANNERS’ REPORT A. TRAIL POINTE RIDGE PUD AMENDMENT Request for:
• Planned Unit Development Amendment on 2.03 acres Cecile Bedor, Executive Vice-President of CommonBond, displayed a PowerPoint and explained the application. She gave an overview of
CommonBond and showed the location of the development. Trail Point Ridge
would have 58 units, including those with 30 percent, 50 percent, and 60 percent AMI and market rate units. They would have one, two, or three bedrooms and there would be 13 supportive housing units along with a community room,
PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES October 26, 2020 Page 2
outdoor recreational amenities, and offices. She displayed several elevation slides to show these. Because the architect and the engineer anticipated different space requirements, at issue was the size of the make up air unit, which would take up an entire parking
space. This was unfortunately discovered by the architect and the engineer after the initial approval of the development. The fresh air intake location and the grading at that area precluded reorienting this make up air unit, and the cost to move the unit was $35,000.00 to $40,000.00.
The proposed solution would yield 116 stalls: 48 covered, 68 surface. Bedor displayed the location of the extra parking stall. It would cost $10,000.00 to build that stall outside. Klima presented the staff report. City code was clear when a waiver was granted
through the PUD process, and that approved waiver was requested to be altered, that the request required the full review process with a public hearing and City Council approval. Staff recommended approval of the waiver.
Farr asked for and received clarification the dashed line on the site plan that
crossed a stall was an easement line involving utilities and causing no problems. Farr noted the dumpster and recycling staging area had concrete pads and asked if there would be indoor trash storage. Klima replied the concrete pads were staging areas utilized only on pickup days. Otherwise, trash would be stored inside. MOTION: Kirk moved, seconded by Markos to close the public hearing. MOTION CARRIED 7-0. MOTION: Kirk moved, seconded by Toomey to recommend approval of the
Planned Unit Development Amendment on 2.03 acres based on plans stamp-dated
October 15, 2020 and the staff report dated October 21, 2020. MOTION CARRIED 7-0. VII. MEMBERS’ REPORTS

STAFF REPORT TO: Planning Commission
FROM: Sarah Strain, Planner I DATE: November 9, 2020
SUBJECT: Variance Request #2020-03
APPLICANT: Nik Hawley, Performance Pool & Spa
OWNER: Glen Steeves
LOCATION: 18704 Melrose Chase
REQUEST:
• To increase the impervious surface coverage to 47 percent. The maximum permitted by City Code is 30 percent.
BACKGROUND
The subject property is currently zoned R1-13.5 and is classified by the Comprehensive Guide Plan as Low Density Residential. The property is surrounded by low density residential and golf course uses. The property shares a driveway with two (2) other parcels, but the majority of the driveway area is located on the 18704 property. The driveway accounts for over half of the
impervious surface coverage on the property. The property already exceeds the 30 percent
impervious surface coverage required by the City’s shoreland ordinance; currently, the lot has 44 percent impervious surface coverage. The applicant is requesting a variance from impervious
surface coverage to add a pool and small equipment pad to
the property. The applicant has offered to install stormwater basins on the property to minimize the adverse impacts of the added impervious surface and the existing impervious surface coverage over the 30 percent allowed
by City Code. This is not required by City Code for
consideration of variance requests. VARIANCE REQUEST
The applicant is proposing to increase the impervious
surface coverage 1,192 square feet, or 3.4 percent, to
construct a pool and small equipment pad. The proposed variance requests a 47 percent impervious surface coverage. City Code permits 30 percent impervious surface coverage in the shoreland overlay district.
Staff Report – Variance #2020-03
November 9, 2020
Page 2 EVALUATING VARIANCES AGAINST STATUTORY CRITERIA
A variance may be granted when it is in harmony with the general purposes and intent of the
ordinance and when the variance is consistent with the comprehensive plan. Furthermore, a
variance may be granted when the applicant for the variance establishes that there are practical difficulties in complying with the zoning ordinance. Practical difficulties, as used in connection with the granting of a variance, means that the property owner proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner not permitted by the zoning ordinance; the plight of the landowner is due to
circumstances unique to the property not created by the landowner; and the variance, if granted,
will not alter the essential character of the locality. 1. Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan
The proposed request is consistent with the goals and intent of the Comprehensive Guide Plan.
The variance requested aligns with standards of the Low Density Residential District. Granting
the variance does not change residential land use of the property. Likewise, the proposed request aligns with water quality goals outlined in Aspire as the applicant is proposing to treat the run-off from the additional impervious surface onsite.
2. Harmony with the Purpose and Intent of the Ordinance
The request is in harmony with the purpose and intent of the ordinance. The owner is treating run-off from the additional impervious surface with stormwater management on the property. Currently, stormwater is conveyed down the driveway to the storm sewer system. Stormwater will be treated onsite under the proposed conditions, which is an improvement from current
conditions. The proposed stormwater basins have been designed to retain 1.1-inches of run-off
from all impervious surfaces over the 30 percent maximum allowed in City Code, not just the proposed impervious surface addition associated with the pool. This means about 2,993 square feet of impervious surface is proposed to be treated onsite instead of being conveyed to the off-site storm sewer system. Additionally, the requested variance will not alter the existing use of
the property as a single-family residence.
3. Unique Circumstance
The variance request is due to circumstances unique to the property not caused by the current landowner. The property is surrounded by a golf course on three (3) sides, which is atypical of
most properties in Eden Prairie. The property is surrounded by maintained turf grass and golf
cart paths on three sides rather than typical single-family lots that would include houses and driveways. The surrounding open space provides greater opportunity for run-off to infiltrate into the ground and pollutants to be removed rather than go straight to Purgatory Creek or a storm sewer system untreated. At the closest point, the lot is approximately 150 feet from the
creek corridor.
The property shares a driveway with two (2) neighboring properties. However, the majority of the driveway is located on the 18704 Melrose Chase parcel. This long, shared driveway adds several thousand square feet of impervious surface to the lot and accounts for about 53 percent
of the lot’s total impervious surface coverage. The applicant calculated impervious surface
coverage for the lot with and without the driveway. Currently, the lot has 44 percent impervious surface coverage, including the driveway. If the driveway is removed from the lot calculations,
Staff Report – Variance #2020-03
November 9, 2020
Page 3 the lot would have about 36 percent impervious surface coverage.
4. Alteration of the Essential Neighborhood Character
The variance would not be out of character within the neighborhood. Several other homes in the neighborhood have pools or sports courts that increase the impervious surface coverage. 5. Reasonable Use of Property
The current use of the property, a single-family residence, is not proposed to change as part of
this application. The land use is a permitted and reasonable use. A pool in a single-family residential district is a permitted and reasonable use of the land.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
The granting of the variance is in harmony with intent and general purposes of the ordinance, and
the nature of the variance requested is consistent with the comprehensive guide plan. As part of variances, the City may impose conditions of approval if they are reasonable and proportional to the request. Given the existing high impervious surface coverage of this site, the City recommends conditions be applied to mitigate the proposed impervious surface coverage to maintain site
conditions equivalent to the existing conditions.
The owner/applicant has offered to mitigate the site’s impervious surface coverage above the 30 percent maximum allowed in City Code through infiltration basins without prompting by City staff. In proposing this mitigation method, the owner/applicant assumes responsibility for the
design of the basins and the site conditions, including suitable soil conditions for the proposed
mitigation method. However, MnDNR, who also regulates shoreland, does not accept infiltration basins as an acceptable mitigation method for increased impervious surface coverage with no minimization in impervious surface coverage. Staff recommends approval of the variance with the condition that one or more of the following mitigation practices be implemented in addition to the
proposed infiltration basins.
Recommend approval of the following request with conditions:
1. Approve Variance Final Order #2020-03 subject to plans stamp dated October 21, 2020 based on the information outlined in the Planning Department Staff Report dated
November 9, 2020. The applicant must apply for a land alteration permit for the project
and provide information regarding site soil characteristics at the time of application. The security for the land alteration permit will be waived, but fees will be required. The applicant must also select one or more of the following actions to mitigate the additional impervious surface added with this variance request:
a. Direct run-off from the roof surfaces to the proposed infiltration basins or other
stormwater reuse system. The selected system would require approval by the City Engineer. b. Install a vegetated buffer with an average width of 15 feet around the lot line. c. Convert existing impervious surface on the site with an area equal to the proposed
impervious surface coverage to permeable pavers/pavement as part of the current
project or as a result of repairs or modifications to the driveway or patio areas.

EXHIBIT A – FINDINGS AND CONDITIONS VARIANCE #2020-03 FINDINGS
“Practical difficulties” is a legal standard set forth in law that cities must apply when considering applications for variances. It is a three-factor test and applies to all requests for variances. To constitute practical difficulties, all three factors of the test must be satisfied. The three practical difficulties include reasonableness, uniqueness, and maintaining the essential character of the neighborhood. Additionally,
the variance must demonstrate harmony with other land use controls.
1. Reasonable use of the property - The first factor is the property owner proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner but cannot do so under the rules of the ordinance. The use of the property is not proposed to change as part of this application. The land use is a permitted and reasonable use.
The proposed use is consistent and in harmony with the Comprehensive Guide Plan and is a
reasonable use of the property. 2. Unique circumstances - The second factor is that the property owner’s situation is due to circumstances unique to the property not caused by the property owner. In this variance request,
the unique circumstance is that the property is surrounded by maintained turf grass and golf cart
paths on three sides rather than typical single-family lots that would include houses and driveways. The surrounding open space provides greater opportunity for run-off to infiltrate into the ground and pollutants to be removed rather than go straight to Purgatory Creek or a storm sewer system untreated.
3. Essential character of neighborhood - The third factor is that the variance, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality. Under this factor, consider whether the resulting structure will be out of scale, out of place, or otherwise inconsistent with the surrounding area. The variance would not be out of character within the neighborhood. Several other homes in the
neighborhood have pools or sports courts that increase the impervious surface coverage.
The granting of the variance is in harmony with intent and general purposes of the ordinance and the nature of the variance requested is consistent with the comprehensive guide plan.
CONDITIONS:
• Subject to the information provided in the Staff Report dated November 9, 2020 and plans stamp dated October 21, 2020.
• The applicant must apply for a land alteration permit for the project and provide information regarding site soil characteristics at the time of application. The security for the land alteration permit will be waived, but fees will be required. The applicant must also select one or more of the following actions to mitigate the additional impervious surface added with this variance request:
o Direct run-off from the roof surfaces to the proposed infiltration basins or other stormwater reuse system. The selected system would require approval by the City Engineer. o Install a vegetated buffer with an average width of 15 feet around the lot line. o Convert existing impervious surface on the site with an area equal to the proposed
impervious surface coverage to permeable pavers/pavement as part of the current project or as a result of repairs or modifications to the driveway or patio areas.

Swimming Pool Variance/Stormwater Management
Glen Steeves
18704 Melrose Chase
Eden Prairie, Mn 55347
To Whom this may concern:
We are proposing to install an 18x36’ swimming pool at our property. Performance Pool and
Spa is our contractor and Nik Hawley is our rep. His direct number is 651.592.7869.
It came to our knowledge that our property only allows for a 30% hardcover limit and that our
current set up is over that allowable limit. We have a very unique property, where the driveway is
shared yet still technically on our property. Being that our driveway drains to the street and is shared,
we used the remaining lot square-footage to calculate hardcover and propose an on site mitigation plan.
You’ll see that before we add the pool Project, we are 1,801sqft over the allowable limit. As we propose
an average size pool with the minimum concrete border, we will add 1,170sqft plus 22sft for the pool
equipment pad. This will total 2,993sqft above the allowable limit for our property.
We are proposing adding 2 drainage trenches on the property for storm water mitigation and
management on our site. With the average Minnesota rain fall being 1.1 inches we can determine how
to not just mitigate the pool project additional hardcover but ALSO mitigate the 1,801sqft of hardcover
our property is already over the limit by. This is broken down in the attached variance application
proposal. In effect this project will help stormwater management for our property beyond what it is
currently set up to handle.
Realizing Eden Prairie is it’s own city, Edina and Plymouth allow this procedure to mitigate
overage on hardcover and we hope in our unique situation, we can help mitigate stormwater runoff
using this practice on our property.

Grading Plan
TO: Planning Commission
FROM: Janet Jeremiah, Community Development Director DATE: November 9, 2020 Planning Commission meeting
SUBJECT: Master Redevelopment Project Area REQUEST: Adopt the resolution finding that the Redevelopment Plan for the Master Redevelopment Project Area conforms to the general plans for the
development and redevelopment of the city.
Background:
On August 26, 2019, the Planning Commission recommended expanding the City’s
Redevelopment Project Area #5 to be coterminous with the City’s corporate boundaries. On September 17, 2020, the City Council and HRA took final action on the item. The intent was to allow pooled Tax Increment Financing dollars to be spent anywhere in the City. However, the action did not alter Redevelopment Project Area #6 which covers the northern portion of the
Golden Triangle Area and City West. Therefore, pooled funds from a Tax Increment Financing
project in that area cannot currently be spent anywhere in the City except in that project area. This limits potential use of the pooled funding. Therefore, the existing Redevelopment Project Areas are proposed to be combined into one Master Redevelopment Project Area with boundaries that are coterminous with the City’s corporate limits.
Minnesota Statutes Section 469.027 requires the Planning Commission to study and provide a written opinion to the HRA and the City Council on a proposed redevelopment plan .One of the required findings for approval of a redevelopment plan and redevelopment project is that the proposal conforms to the general plans for the development and redevelopment of the City as a
whole. Staff finds the proposal consistent with Aspire and the Strategic Plan for Housing &
Economic Development in giving the City the most flexibility to implement projects and programs envisioned by those plans. Passage of the attached resolution will serve as documentation of the required finding.
The Planning Commission’s recommendation will be considered for final action at a City
Council/HRA public hearing on December 1, 2020. Attachments:

Redevelopment Plan for the Master Redevelopment Project Area 4
Section 1-2. Statutory Authority
The HRA Act authorizes the Authority to exercise all the powers relating to a housing and
redevelopment authority granted under Minnesota Statutes, Sections 469.001 to 469.047, or
other law.
It is the intention of the Governing Body, notwithstanding the enumeration of specific goals and
objectives in the Redevelopment Plan, that the Authority shall have and enjoy with respect to the
Project Area the full range of powers and duties conferred upon the Authority pursuant to the HRA
Act, the TIF Act, municipal housing and redevelopment authority laws, and such other legal
authority as the Authority may have or enjoy from time to time.
The following existing redevelopment project areas, which are located within the boundaries of
the Project Area, are incorporated into and superseded by the Redevelopment Plan for
The Master Redevelopment Project Area:
• Redevelopment Project Area #5
• Redevelopment Project Area #6
The location of such project areas are identified on the map in Appendix A attached hereto.
Funding of the necessary activities and improvements in the Project Area shall be accomplished
through tax increment financing in accordance with Minnesota Statutes, Sections 469.174 through
469.1794, inclusive (the “TIF Act”) or other sources of funds available to the HRA and the City.
Tax increment will continue to be utilized to assist in the financing of Public Improvements.
Within the Project Area, the HRA and the City plan to continue to administer its existing Tax
Increment Financing Districts or create one or more new Tax Increment Financing Districts
established pursuant to the TIF Act to finance the Public Improvements proposed for the Project
Area. The Public Improvements may be initially financed from other City sources, including, but
not limited to the issuance bonds which the City may repay from tax increment proceeds derived
from Tax Increment Financing Districts to be created with the Project Area.
Tax Increment Districts may be created at such time as will enable the City to capture the increase
in taxable value of private improvements to be constructed within the Project Area.
Section 1-3. Statement of and Finding of Public Purpose
The Authority finds that there is a need for redevelopment within the City and the Project Area in
order to provide employment and housing opportunities, to improve the local tax base, and to
improve the general economy of the City and the State. The economic security of the people in
the City depends upon proper development of property that meets any one of a number of
conditions, including properties whose values are too low to pay for the public services required
or rendered and properties whose lack of use or improper use has resulted in stagnant or
unproductive land that could otherwise contribute to the public health, safety, and welfare.
The Authority finds that in many cases such property cannot be developed without public
participation and assistance in various forms including property acquisition and/or write-down,
proper planning, the financing of development costs associated with clearance, grading and soils
City of Eden Prairie
Redevelopment Plan for the Master Redevelopment Project Area 5
correction, and the making of various other public and private improvements necessary for
development. In cases where the development of property cannot be done by private enterprise
alone, the Authority believes it to be in the public interest to consider the exercise of its powers,
to advance and spend public money, and to provide the means and impetus for such
development.
The Authority finds that in certain cases property within the Project Area would or may not be
available for development without the specific financial aid to be sought, that the Redevelopment
Plan will afford maximum opportunity, consistent with the needs of the City as a whole, for the
development of the Project Area by private enterprise, and that the Redevelopment Plan conforms
to the general plan for the development of the City as a whole.
The Authority further finds that the Project Area is a "redevelopment project" within the meaning
of Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.002, subd. 14 of the HRA Act.
Section 1-4. Statement of Objectives
The HRA determines that it is necessary, desirable and in the public interest to establish,
designate, develop and administer the Redevelopment Plan. The HRA determines that the
establishment of the Project Area will provide the City with the ability to achieve certain public
purpose objectives not otherwise obtainable in the foreseeable future without HRA and City
intervention in the normal development process. The City seeks to achieve the following program
objectives:
1. To promote and secure the prompt development of property within the Project Area, such
property which is not now in its most productive use, in a manner consistent with the
Comprehensive Plan of the City, thus realizing Comprehensive Plan, land use, and tax
base goals;
2. Promoting and securing additional employment opportunities within the Project Area and
the City for residents of the City and the surrounding area, thereby improving living
standards and preventing unemployment and the loss of skilled and unskilled labor and
other human resources in the City;
3. Securing the increase in value of property subject to taxation by the City, the school
districts and the applicable County, and any other taxing jurisdictions in order to better
enable such entities to pay for public improvements and governmental services and
programs required to be provided by them;
4. Securing the construction and providing of moneys for the payment of the cost of public
improvements in the Project Area, which are necessary for the orderly and beneficial
development of the Project Area;
5. To provide funding for an ongoing development strategy and to prioritize the use of
available resources;
6. To implement and revise from time to time, as may be deemed necessary or desirable, a
consolidated and unified Redevelopment Plan and to finance the associated development
costs on an area-wide basis;
City of Eden Prairie
Redevelopment Plan for the Master Redevelopment Project Area 6
7. To employ any of the powers of the Authority for the benefit of the Project Area in such
cases and upon such terms as the Authority may deem appropriate, and;
8. To construct or acquire facilities deemed desirable for the development of the Project
Area.
Section 1-5. Payment of Public Costs
The preceding objectives will be promoted by providing improvements and opportunities within
the Project Area which may include various types of site improvements, land acquisition,
redevelopment, demolition, parking, street, sewer, water and other public improvements. It is
anticipated that the Public Costs of the Project Area will be paid primarily from tax increments or
proceeds of tax increment bonds. Such costs are identified in the TIF Plan(s) for the
corresponding TIF District(s) located within the Project Area. The Authority reserves the right to
use other sources of revenue legally applicable to the Project Area to pay for such Public Costs
including, but not limited to, special assessments, federal or state funds, and investment
income.
Section 1-6. Property Acquisition
The Authority may acquire property, or appropriate interest therein, within the Project Area as it
deems necessary or desirable to assist in the implementation of the Redevelopment Plan.
Section 1-7. Environmental Controls; Land Use Regulations
All Authority actions, public improvements and private development shall be carried out in a
manner consistent with existing environmental controls and all applicable Land Use Regulations.
Section 1-8. Park and Open Space to be Created
Park and open space created within the Project Area will be done so in accordance with the
zoning and platting ordinances of the City.
Section 1-9. Property Acquisition and Proposed Reuse
The Redevelopment Plan contemplates that the Authority may acquire property and reconvey the
same to another entity. Prior to formal consideration of the acquisition of any property, the
Governing Body will require the execution of a binding development agreement with respect
thereto and evidence that tax increments or other funds will be available to repay the Public Costs
associated with the proposed acquisition. It is the intent of the Authority to negotiate the
acquisition of property whenever possible. Appropriate restrictions regarding the reuse and
redevelopment of property shall be incorporated into any development agreement to which the
Authority is a party.

direction of the Governing Body. No action taken by the administrator pursuant to the above-
mentioned powers shall be effective without authorization by the Governing Body.

FROM: Julie Klima, City Planner
DATE: November 9, 2020 RE: 2021 Planning Commission Work Plan
BACKGROUND Please find attached a draft copy of the proposed 2021 Planning Commission Work Plan.
Historically, the Planning Commission meetings have been largely reflective of the project or
land use development applications that have been submitted to the City for review. Planning staff is suggesting that the Commission identify issues that will provide further education and support for the Commission as these initiatives continue to advance.
It is staff’s intention to schedule these items for review as time permits when agendas may be
light with development applications or as pertinent topics arise. The topics identified are recommendations based on feedback received from Planning Commission members and potential areas of interest.
The work plan is intended to serve as a general guide for Commission discussion. The
Commission may wish to revise the work plan to reflect additional or modified topic areas. ACTION REQUESTED Move to approve the 2021 Work Plan as presented or with modifications.
