APPROVE MOTION RELEASING THE RESTRICTIONS THAT PROHIBITED BUILDING CONSTRUCTION ON CERTAIN PORTIONS OF THE PROPERTY KNOWN AS CITY CENTER III. OTHER BUSINESS IV. ADJOURNMENT DATE: 02/17/98 EDEN PRAIRIE BRA AGENDA ITEM NO: 11 SECTION: BRA :.;..- DEPARTMENT: ITEM DESCRIPTION: Public Works Release of Restrictions Eugene A. Dietz Requested Action: Motion approving release of restrictions that prohibited building construction on certain portions of the property now known as City Center. Background: In 1981, the CPT Corporation was in the process of seeking approvals for expansion of the building now known as the City Center. During that time frame, a viable alternative for TH 212 was on an alignment over what is now Technology Drive. One of the requirements by the City of Eden Prairie was that no building construction would be allowed on the northerly portions of the property so as not to interfere with the TH 212 project. A document that prohibited building construction on certain portions of the land was therefore executed and recorded. Today, TH 212 is scheduled for construction on the TH 5 alignment and this restriction is no longer necessary. Although there is no imminent plans for building construction along the northside of the property, it is appropriate to eliminate this encumbrance. Staff therefore recommends approval of a motion that would release these restrictions. I RELEASE OF RESTRICTIONS WHEREAS by Notice of Restriction given by CPr Corporation (CPT), dated as of the 30th day of July, 1981, CPr subjected the following described property (hereinafter the "Property") to a certain hereinafter described restriction: That part of the East 112 of the Northeast 114 of Section 16, Township 116, Range 22, lying Southerly of a line drawn from a point on the East line of the Northeast 114 of said Section which is distant 1106.5 feet North along said East line from the Southeast comer of said Northeast 114 to a point on the West line of the East 112 of said Northeast 114 which is distant 953.5 feet North along said West line from the Southwest comer of said East 112, according to the Government Survey thereof, (the Property). WHEREAS, said Notice of Restriction was executed by CPr on the 27th day of July, 1981 and by the City of Eden Prairie on the 21st day of July, 1981, and filed for record on the 10th day of August, 1981 as Document Number 4662531; WHEREAS, by said Notice of Restriction CPT agreed not to construct any buildings within that portion of the Property (hereinafter the "Restriction") legally described as follows: The Northerly 340 feet, the Southerly 80 feet of the Northerly 420 feet of the Easterly 500 feet, and the Southerly 230 feet of the Northerly 650 feet of the Easterly 150 feet, of that part of the East 112 of the Northeast 114 of Section 16, Township 116, Range 22, lying Southerly of a line drawn from a point on the East line of the Northeast 114 of said Section which is distant 1106.5 feet North along said East line from the Southeast comer of said Northeast 114 to a point on the West line of the East 112 of said Northeast 114 which is distant 953.5 feet North along said West line from the Southwest comer of said East 112, according to the Government Survey thereof. WHEREAS, the Housing and Redevelopment Authority in and for the City of Eden Prairie (HRA) is now the fee owner of the Property; and WHEREAS, the City of Eden Prairie and the HRA desire to release the Property from the Restriction by terminating the Restriction: NOW, THEREFORE, the HRA and the City of Eden Prairie agree that the Restriction set forth in the Notice of Restriction referred to above is hereby terminated. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Release of Restriction is given on the 17th day of February, 1998.

Dietz said this agreement does not address details. Hennepin County WILL pay for a landscaping plan for the project, but they have been developing landscaping under separate projects. He said we will end up sharing in the cost of the landscaping. Case then asked if there have been any changes in the alignment at Candlewood. Dietz said the final construction plans were approved last October, and this is just the financial arrangements between us and the County at this stage. MOTION: Case moved, seconded by Tyra-Lukens, to approve items A-J on the Consent Calendar. Motion carried 5-0. V. PUBLIC HEARINGS/MEETINGS A. APPLICATION FOR NATURAL AND SCENIC GRANT FOR ACQIDSITION OF 30.2 ACRES OF LAND ON THE MINNESOTA RIVER BLUFFS (Resolution 98-22) Jullie said the official notice of this Public Hearing was published on January 22, 1998 in the Eden Prairie News. At the January 20, 1998 meeting, the Council authorized staff to apply for a $200,000 Natural and Scenic Grant for acquisition of Option Parcel No.2 of the Klein/Peterson property, and set a public hearing for the February 3, 1998 Council meeting. Staff notified property owners within 500 feet of the parcel proposed to be acquired. There were no comments from the audience. MOTION: Case moved, seconded by Butcher-Younghans, to close the Public Hearing; and to adopt Resolution 98-22 authorizing application for a Natural and Scenic Grant for the acquisition of 30.2 Acres of land owned by Darril Peterson and the Klein family on the Minnesota River Bluffs. Motion carried 5-0. B. CROSSTOWN BUSINESS PLAZA by Opus Corporation. Request for Comprehensive Guide Plan Change from Neighborhood Commercial to Office on 4 acres, Planned Unit Development Concept Amendment on 6.293 acres, Planned Unit Development District Review on 6.293 acres, Rezoning from Neighborhood Commercial to Office on 4 acres, Site Plan Review on 6.293 acres, and Preliminary Plat of 6.293 acres into one lot. Location: Southwest Corner of City West Parkway and Shady Oak. (Resolution 98-23 for Comprehensive Guide Plan Change, Resolution 98-24 for PUD Concept Amendment, Ordinance for PUD District Review and Rezoning from Neighborhood Commercial to Office, and Resolution 98-25 for Preliminary Plat) CITY COUNCIL MINUTES February 3, 1998 Page 4 Jullie said the official notice of this Public Hearing was published on January 22, 1998 in the Eden Prairie News and sent to 37 property owners. The site is part of the 1992 Galarneau/Shady Oak Business Center Planned Unit Development. The approved plan is 31,000 square feet. The plan includes a 16,000 square foot office building, a 6,600 and 5,000 square foot commercial building, and a 4,000 square foot restaurant. David Menke, Development Director for Opus Northwest, reviewed the proposal. He said they plan to preserve all the existing trees on the site. Enger said the Planning Commission reviewed this project at its December 8, 1997 meeting and again at its January 12, 1998 meeting. The Commission voted 7-0 to approve the revised project at the January 12 meeting, subject to the recommendations of the Staff Report of January 9, 1998. It was not reviewed by the Parks, Recreation & Natural Resources Commission. There were no comments from the audience. MOTION: Thorfinnson moved, seconded by Butcher-Younghans, to close the Public Hearing; to approve 1st Reading of the Ordinance for PUD District Review on 6.3 acres and Rezoning from Neighborhood Commercial to Office on 4 acres; to adopt Resolution 98-23 for Comprehensive Guide Plan Change from Neighborhood Commercial to Office on 4 acres; to adopt Resolution 98-24 for Planned Unit Development Concept Amendment on 6.3 acres; to adopt Resolution 98-25 for Preliminary Plat of 6.3 acres into one lot; and to direct Staff to prepare a Development Agreement incorporating Commission and Staff recommendations. Case asked how the land northwest of Old Shady Oak Road is guided and what we envision going in on that property. Enger said the hill has been zoned for single family homes, and further west and south of the hill has been guided as medium density housing. Case said he thought it was guided low density, so he was wondering how often we put office next to low density and if there would be enough room to buffer for this development. Enger said he would have to check on the density, but we do occasionally put low density office next to single family residential. This whole area was viewed as transition to single family residential, and it has been reviewed with an eye to scale of development. Case said he didn't think we could come up with a better plan for this site. Dietz noted over the years we have talked about the poor soil conditions on the Pavelka property, and that the only way to get economic use in this area would be to do some density transfer. Enger said he just checked the Guide Plan, and the general area is low density residential, but because of the wetlands and the hill we anticipated a density transfer. CITY COUNCIL MINUTES February 3, 1998 Page 5 Tyra-Lukens noted she was voting for this Comprehensive Guide Plan change because this is a much less intense use of the site, particularly in terms of traffic, than the project she voted against at the last meeting. She thought this project is more compatible with single family property, and believes it will have a positive effect on property values to the west. VOTE ON THE MOTION: Motion carried 5-0. VI. PAYMENT OF CLAIMS MOTION: Case moved, seconded by Thorfinnson, to approve the Payment of Claims as submitted. Motion carried on a roll call vote, with Butcher-Y ounghans, Case, Thorfmnson, Tyra-Lukens and Harris voting "aye." VII. ORDINANCES AND RESOLUTIONS VIII. PETITIONS. REOUESTS AND COMMUNICATIONS A. TOWNHOMES OF SHERWOOD HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATION Jullie said Ms Jody Wilson, President of Townhomes of Sherwood Homeowners Association, is here to address the Council regarding our response to the particular household situation in this neighborhood. He noted since Ms. Wilson's letter of January 21, there has been considerable progress toward resolving this situation due to the City'S intervention, as outlined in the Staff Memo from Kevin Schmieg, Director of Inspections, dated January 29, 1998. He said the owner has been moved to other living accommodations with the help of Ms Gerri Beckmann and the PROP agency. All animals have now been removed from the home. Also funding is being arranged for some degree of restoration, depending upon the final amount of dollars available. Ms Wilson described the problems that existed with one homeowner for the past year. They did everything legally possible to enforce the rules and regulations. After they obtained a search warrant in August, they determined there was a great deal of damage to the property because of the 60 cats that were in the house. The property was posted as being unlawful to occupy, but at Thanksgiving time they found that the building was occupied again. After discussion with the Police Department they were told the City was reluctant to make the owner homeless before Christmas. She reviewed the events since that time, noting that they are concerned about what happens if the damage will require more than $15,000 to clean up and whether the "do not occupy" order will be enforced until the clean-up is completed. Jullie said this has been a difficult situation. He thought the record shows there has been a lot of activity even though it has dragged on for a long time. The owner comes back for packing and some clean-up work. She has agreed to go CITY COUNCIL MINUTES February 3, 1998 Page 6 through the application process for the funding. We have begun the follow-up work on the Chapter 463 process to obtain additional financing to complete the restoration. He was confident this situation can be resolved to everyone's satisfaction. Wilson asked how long the process will take. Jullie said the order would allow 20 days from the time of the order for their response and after that there would be a legal process. Rosow said the Findings of Fact, Conclusions and Order statute requires the Council to adopt this document, which is then served on the property owner and any lien holders. The defendants have 20 days to either correct the items cited or to file an answer. If there is no answer filed, we can go in on behalf of the City and request the court to enter an order to allow the City to go in and make corrections. If there is an answer filed, then it becomes a regular lawsuit. It will be assigned to a judge, and the timing will depend on the judge's calendar; however, this type of case takes precedence over anything else on the judge's calendar. The City would have to prove allegations and findings, and the court would enter an order requiring the property owner to make the repairs. If they don't, then the City can go in and make repairs. Harris asked if it would be possible for someone to live in the building during the period of correction and restitution. Rosow said he understands that occupancy is not allowed; however, that is different from going in to remove items. Tyra-Lukens asked how occupancy is defined. Rosow said someone is living there on a full-time basis, or if someone stays there overnight. Tyra-Lukens thought this was a very unfortunate situation. She felt sorry for the people who live next door and those who have had to deal with the legal problems. She was dismayed by the lapses between August and December when nothing was happening, and she asked why there was a four-month lapse in activity. Jullie said the Police Department and Animal Control people were working. There were various activities that occurred after the August 12th date. Tyra-Lukens asked if it was being cleaned up during that time. Kevin Schmieg said we went in initially on August 14, 1997, in order to protect the adjacent property from a fire hazard. They captured 41 cats the first day and another 20 subsequently. A decision was made to remove the combustible material. They removed 20 yards of combustible material which eliminated a lot of the odor problems. Subsequently they gave the owner a chance to go through the property for valuables. The Hennepin County epidemiologist said that the property did not constitute a public health threat. At this point the owners have moved out of the property at the expense of PROP, so there should be no reason for the owner to be in the property. Harris asked who has responsibility for the clean up. Schmieg said the owner does. CITY COUNCIL MINUTES February 3, 1998 Page 7 Harris asked if it is contracted out and billed back to the owner. Rosow said if the owner responds to the order, the owner can have it done at their expense. If she does not respond, the City pays the bill and assesses the cost back to the property. Case was concerned that we might drive this into foreclosure. The place obviously has less value than previously. He asked who would bring it back to livable condition if foreclosure occurs. Rosow said, if the property owner walked away, the City could still have the clean-up done at their expense and have a special assessment hearing to assess the cost back to the property. If the mortgage went into default because of non-payment, the mortgage company would foreclose. Whether the property would ultimately sell to payoff the mortgage and special assessments would depend on the amount of equity in the property. Tyra-Lukens asked what happens if it doesn't sell. Rosow said the special assessments and taxes would take precedence. Butcher-Y ounghans thought it may be that the current owner will not be the future owner; however she asked if there is some kind of monitoring system the County uses to make sure we don't get back to the same situation if the current owner moves back in and brings animals back into the restored bUilding. Rosow didn't think there is a formal monitoring system except for the complaint process that a certain property owner has more animals than allowed under City ordinance. Harris said she wanted those present to know the City is interested in restoring the property as soon as possible. Schmeig said the Chapter 463 action is to abate the nuisance and will not restore it to a full occupancy state. Charles Atkinson, 9541 Hartford Circle, described the reaction of the owner to the search warrant in August. He didn't think this will be resolved. Harris would like to be more optimistic that it will be resolved, and said we are committed to help resolve the problem. Roger Harris, a homeowner, said 90 days to resolve the situation is not acceptable. He would like to see something done tomorrow. Mayor Harris said the Council has made a commitment to remedy the situation. B. FINDINGS OF FACT, CONCLUSIONS AND ORDER Jullie said we have prepared a draft of the Findings of Fact, Conclusions and Order in regard to the situation at the Sherwood Townhomes. Staff recommends the Council approve the document and direct Staff to proceed with all possible dispatch to pursue this finding. Harris wanted the audience to know this document sets in place the process to get the funding to correct the 7 CITY COUNCIL MINUTES February 3, 1998 Page 8 hazardous condition. MOTION: Case moved, seconded by Butcher-Younghans, to adopt the Findings of Fact, Conclusions and Order and to direct Staff to proceed with this process. Motion carried 5-0. IX.

He also suggested reserving the fourth Tuesdays of the month from March through August to cover the Transition Team reports and issues involved in the transition. Thorfinnson asked if the fourth Tuesday workshops would be on an "as needed" basis. Jullie said they would be. The consensus was to schedule the workshops as Mr. Jullie proposed. C.

DEPARTMENT: ITEM DESCRIPTION: Public Works Release of Restrictions Eugene A. Dietz Requested Action: Motion approving release of restrictions that prohibited building construction on certain portions of the property now known as City Center. Background: In 1981, the CPT Corporation was in the process of seeking approvals for expansion of the building now known as the City Center. During that time frame, a viable alternative for TH 212 was on an alignment over what is now Technology Drive. One of the requirements by the City of Eden Prairie was that no building construction would be allowed on the northerly portions of the property so as not to interfere with the TH 212 project. A document that prohibited building construction on certain portions of the land was therefore executed and recorded. Today, TH 212 is scheduled for construction on the TH 5 alignment and this restriction is no longer necessary. Although there is no imminent plans for building construction along the northside of the property, it is appropriate to eliminate this encumbrance. Staff therefore recommends approval of a motion that would release these restrictions. J RELEASE OF RESTRICTIONS WHEREAS by Notice of Restriction given by CPT Corporation (CPT), dated as of the 30th day of July, 1981, CPT subjected the following described property (hereinafter the "Property") to a certain hereinafter described restriction: That part of the East 112 of the Northeast 114 of Section 16, Township 116, Range 22, lying Southerly of a line drawn from a point on the East line of the Northeast 114 of said Section which is distant 1106.5 feet North along said East line from the Southeast comer of said Northeast 114 to a point on the West line of the East 112 of said Northeast 114 which is distant 953.5 feet North along said West line from the Southwest comer of said East 112, according to the Government Survey thereof, (the Property). WHEREAS, said Notice of Restriction was executed by CPT on the 27th day of July, 1981 and by the City of Eden Prairie on the 21st day of July, 1981, and filed for record on the 10th day of August, 1981 as Document Number 4662531; WHEREAS, by said Notice of Restriction CPT agreed not to construct any buildings within that portion of the Property (hereinafter the "Restriction") legally described as follows: The Northerly 340 feet, the Southerly 80 feet of the Northerly 420 feet of the Easterly 500 feet, and the Southerly 230 feet of the Northerly 650 feet of the Easterly 150 feet, of that part of the East 112 of the Northeast 114 of Section 16, Township 116, Range 22, lying Southerly of a line drawn from a point on the East line of the Northeast 114 of said Section which is distant 1106.5 feet North along said East line from the Southeast comer of said Northeast 114 to a point on the West line of the East 112 of said Northeast 114 which is distant 953.5 feet North along said West line from the Southwest comer of said East 112, according to the Government Survey thereof. WHEREAS, the Housing and Redevelopment Authority in and for the City of Eden Prairie (HRA) is now the fee owner of the Property; and WHEREAS, the City of Eden Prairie and the HRA desire to release the Property from the Restriction by terminating the Restriction: NOW, THEREFORE, the HRA and the City of Eden Prairie agree that the Restriction set forth in the Notice of Restriction referred to above is hereby terminated. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Release of Restriction is given on the 17th day of February, 1998. 2.

Rue Project Recommended Action: Approve resolution approving Traffic Control Signal Agreement No. 77162 for traffic signals associated with the TH 212 Stage I construction project. Overview: MnDOT has prepared construction and signal plans for the TH 212 Stage I construction project. In October, 1997, the City Council approved the revised layout for the TH 212 Stage I project. Primary Issues: At the February 3, 1998 City Council meeting, the Cooperative Construction Agreement for the TH 212 Stage I project was approved, which identifies the City's obligations for the roadway and utility portions of the project. This agreement identifies the City's financial and maintenance responsibilities for the signal portion of the TH 212 Stage I construction project. This agreement includes the construction of three (3) new permanent signal systems along Prairie Center Drive and interconnecting those systems with the signal at CSAH 39 (Valley View Road) and Prairie Center Drive. Financial Issues: The City's share for these three (3) new signal systems and interconnect is estimated at $107,838.00, which includes state-finished materials and construction engineering. The agreement anticipates 80% federal aid for these signals with MnDOT and the City splitting the remaining 20% based on MnDOT's cost participation policy. We propose to use TIF to fund our share of the project. We hereby recommend that the City Council approve MnDOT's Traffic Control Signal Agreement No. 77162 for the estimated amount of $107,838.00.

DEPARTMENT: ITEM DESCRIPTION: I.C. 97-5447 Engineering Division Approve Informal Professional Services Proposal from Westwood Rodney W. Rue Professional Services for Design and Construction Engineering Services for a Temporary Traffic Signal System at CSAH 39 (Valley View Road) and Plaza DrivelTopview Road Recommended Action: Motion to approve Informal Professional Services Proposal from Westwood Professional Services for design and construction engineering services for a temporary traffic signal system at CSAH 39 (Valley View Road) and Plaza DriveITopview Road and authorize staff to sign the proposal. Overview: Last year, we had requested Hennepin County to review signal warrants at the CSAH 39 (Valley View Road) and Plaza DriveITopview Road intersection. The results of that analysis indicated that this intersection met four signal warrants and has a County priority factor of 55 (County policy generally requires a priority factor of 30 or more before they allow a signal to be installed). Primary Issues: With the TH 212 Stage I construction project, this intersection will provide the only access to a majority of the businesses along Plaza Drive. This is due to the fact that (during the early construction stages of the TH 212 project) Plaza Drive will be converted to the TH 5 by-pass and access will be cut-off (exception being westbound TH 5 traffic turning onto Plaza Drive). Since the County is unable to install a permanent signal at this location in 1998, we are proposing to install a temporary signal system at this location as soon as possible. Our goal is to have this temporary signal system operational prior to the Plaza Drive conversion to the TH 5 by-pass. This proposal from Westwood Professional Services, Inc. provides the design and construction engineering services for this signal system. We are planning on utilizing either the existing Prairie Center DrivelPlaza Drive temporary signal system, the existing Prairie Center DrivelTechnology Drive temporary signal system, or a combination of these systems together with some new equipment to accommodate the schedule. Financial Issues: This proposal from Westwood Professional Services, Inc. estimates the cost for their engineering services at $13,020. At this time, we don't have a cost estimate for installation of the signal project. However, it could be in the range of $50,000 to $70,000 depending upon how much salvaged equipment can be utilized. Hennepin County has indicated that based on the priority factor of this intersection, we would be credited 75 % of our construction costs for this temporary signal system once a permanent signal system is installed. We propose to use TIF to finance this temporary signal system. We hereby recommend approval of the informal professional services proposal from Westwood Professional Services, Inc. for design and construction engineering services for an estimated amount of $13,020.

The new signal will use salvaged materials from the current temporary signal at Prairie Center Drive and Plaza Drive. Westwood's role will be to produce the plans, specifications and estimate and then to assist in the bidding and construction implementation. At this time it is not known if the new signal will be operated by Mn/DOT or Hennepin County. As this is known, Westwood will coordinate with the appropriate agency regarding standards and plan sheet format. The new temporary signal needs to be operational when the T.H. 212 construction causes a traffic shift that will make Valley View the only access point to Plaza Drive; Westwood's design schedule will be set to ensure that field construction is done by that time. We propose to conduct the work on an hourly basis, with the fee for each major task to not exceed the budget on the attached spreadsheet. ACCEPTANCE OF PROPOSAL Westwood is prepared to begin work on this project as soon as we receive our notice to proceed. To initiate work, we request that you sign and return one copy of this proposal, approving its terms. We shall then begin work immediately.

Frane, City Clerk DEPARTMENT: Finance Background: CITY COUNCIL AGENDA SECTION: Consent Calendar ITEM DESCRIPTION: Resolution dividing and establishing new boundaries for Precinct 9 DATE: February 17, 1998 ITEM NO. -rV.J· This precinct currently has 3341 registered voters. We have aimed to keep the number of registered voters per precinct to around 1500 in order to avoid unnecessary delays when voters arrive at the polls and to make the process manageable for the election judges. This precinct which lies south of Highway 5, west of Eden Prairie Road, north of Pioneer Trail, and east of the Carver/Hennepin County line continues to grow. Community Development has projected an estimated population of 6557 in that area. This resolution divides this precinct using the Southwest Regional LRT Trail as a boundary since it is a visible, clearly recognizable physical feature. State statutes dermes thise feature as "a street, road, boulevard, parkway, river, stream, shoreline, drainage ditch, railway right-of-way, or any other line which is clearly visible from the ground." Precinct 9A will have an estimated population of 4278 while Precinct 9B will have 2279. This is based on a 2.72 occupany rate. Since children and non-registered residents are included in these numbers, we feel this division will satisfy our objectives. Although precinct size in the future could become unmanageable, we are currently limited by the number of polling places available in the southwest area of the City. A zoning map is attached for reference. This resolution is in conformance with Minnesota State Statute 204B.14 Action/Direction: Recommend approval of the resolution.

Obligation Water and Sewer Bonds and various 1JJ {l1 .. Refunding Bonds Finance Background: The City has undertaken various trunk water and sewer projects since the last trunk bond issue in 1987. Since that time improvements have been rmanced out of special assessments, access charges and user fees which have been adjusted to reflect costs. In 1994 the City embarked on improve- ment program of approximately $29,000,000; the water plant expansion cost is $24,600,000 of this program. It is now necessary to borrow funds to rmish these projects. The bonds will be zero coupon bonds. These bonds do not carry yearly interest payments and are sold at a discount with the face amount payable at maturity. They are also called capital appreciation or college floaters. We are planning a bond sale for March 17, 1998, which will net the City approximately $8,000,000. Another sale in 1999 would provide another $1,700,000. These bond sales will provide for the completion of the bulk of our trunk water and sewer system. Because interest rates are at historical lows we are also looking at several possible rermancings. These sales are interest rate driven so it is to our advantage to wait until the last possible moment to decide which issues to refund. Action/Direction: Recommend approval of resolution.

Approve 1st Reading of the Ordinance for PUD District Review on 58.95 acres and Rezoning from Rural to R1-13.5 and Rl-9.5 on 58.95 acres; 3. Adopt the Resolution for PUD Concept Review on 58.95 acres; 4. Adopt the Resolution for Preliminary Plat of 58.95 acres into 117 lots and 4 outlots; and 5. Direct Staff to prepare a Development Agreement incorporating Commission and Staff recommendations (and Council conditions). Background: The concept plan shows the subdivision of 58.95 acres into 117 lots at a gross density of 1.98 units per acre. The net density, exclusive of Outlot E , is 2.21 units per acre. The concept plan has three types of homes, including 35 standard R 1-13.5 lots along Riley Creek and the City Park to the south, 36 standard Rl-9.5 lots, and 46 Rl-9.5lots with waivers for lot size and street frontage. Reasons to consider the waivers are as follows; 1. The overall density of 1.98 units per acre is less than the guide plan density of 2.5 units per acre. 2. The smaller lots are a density transfer in exchange for preservation of Outlot E as natural open space. 3. The smaller lots provide a one level walkout product. 4. The average lot size is greater than the minimum 9,500 square foot lot size requirement. J Planning Commission Recommendation The Planning Commission voted 7-0 to approve Settlers Ridge. The Planning Commission was concerned about having only one access to this site and the surrounding area. Staff has since worked with the developer and Hennepin County to find another access for the area. The attached letter from Hennepin County indicates that another public street access to Pioneer Trail is acceptable on the west end of the Dorenkemper on an existing haul road. Supporting Reports: 1.

PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT CONCEPT The concept plan shows the subdivision of 58.95 acres into 117 lots at a gross density of 1.98 units per acre. The net density, exclusive of Outlot E , is 2.21 units per acre. The concept plan has three types of homes, including 35 standard Rl-13.5 lots along Riley Creek and the City Park to the south, 36 standard RI-9.5 lots, and 46 RI-9.5 lots with waivers for lot size and street frontage. Reasons to consider the waivers are as follows; 1. The overall density of 1.98 units per acre is less than the guide plan density of2.5 units per acre. 2. The smaller lots are a density transfer in exchange for preservation of Outlot E as natural open space. 3. The smaller lots provide a one level walkout product. 4. The average lot size is greater than the minimum 9,500 square foot lot size requirement. SHORELAND ORDINANCE The shoreland ordinance does not apply since none of the lots are within 150 feet of Riley Creek. Outlot E will be owned by the City. HISTORIC AND CULTURAL RESOURCES The archaeological survey on sheet 7 indicates burial mounds on the property which impact Block 2. If the State Archaeologist confirms the location of the mounds and determines that they must be saved, than the mound alternative plan, with a different lotting plan will be required. 2 Staff Report Settlers Ridge January 9, 1998 GRADING AND TREE LOSS There are 4,000 caliper inches of significant trees located primarily along the steep slopes adjacent to Riley Creek. Tree loss is calculated at 2 % or 93 caliper inches. This compares to the average tree loss of 30% for residential projects. The tree replacement required is 3 caliper inches. EROSION CONTROL AND DRAINAGE Sheet 6 shows a preliminary active erosion control plan. This plan shows how active erosion areas can be stabilized. A NURP pond, for treatment of stormwater, is shown on the plan. ROADS AND UTILITIES: The site is not adjacent to any roads or utilities. An improvement project will be needed to extend sewer and water to the site from Pioneer Trail and Dell Road. A public road must be built from Pioneer Trail to this site. ARCHITECTURAL DIVERSITY PLAN: The architectural diversity plan meets city requirements.

SETTLERS RIDGE by Pemtom Land Company. Request for Planned Unit Development Concept Review on 58.95 acres, Planned Unit Development District Review on 58.95 acres, Rezoning from Rural to R1-13.5 and Rl-9.5 on 58.95 acres and Preliminary Plat on 58.95 acres into 117 lots and 4 outlots. Location: South of Pioneer Trail and west of Riley Creek. Dan Herbst, Pemtom Land Company, noted their partnership is with Lundgren Builders. They have been working with the PetersonlKlein property for a year and a half and the history of the property goes back long before the City was incorporated. They have been working with staff and the neighbors prior to coming in with any concept plan. They met with most of the neighbors and also conducted a neighborhood meeting on December 15. The plan is to create three distinct neighborhoods, one being a lifestyle type home on the northern part of the site. The central portion of the site will be traditional housing and along the creek on the Minnesota Bluffs will be all custom homes. Each neighborhood will have a distinct product and a distinct landscaping theme to it. He showed illustrations of a typical entrance monument that will be used. Dwight Jelle, engineer, reviewed the site plan and the slope analysis done, and noted they have done visual surveys for tree removal. There are approximately 4000 diameter inches of significant trees on the site and they are proposing to remove less than two percent of those trees for roadway construction and utility construction. There are two wetlands on the site and they will have no impact from this project. They are only developing in the plateau area where it's being fanned. They are staying completely out of the trees, staying within the bluff setbacks according to the Eden Prairie ordinances. He also reviewed the pedestrian and trail system within this project. Peter Perkey, Lundgren Builders, explained there will be three distinct neighborhoods and three distinct products linked in this development. He noted they went to the museum and picked up a book called, "Eden Prairie, The First 100 Years", and it depicted a lot of history right around this area. They tied many of the concept plans into some of the historical elements of the area. The first housing area is called a lifestyle product which was derived from market studies done and it's geared toward the active adult. It's not a 7 /I Planning Commission Minutes January 12, 1998 retirement type product but a maintenance free product. This product will have the use of stucco and the use of stone, hip roofs, dormers in the garage, and front porches. They are trying to tie some of these elements in each one of these units. They are also proposing architectural diversity with different elevations. The next product line is the traditional four or five bedroom. It's primarily a ."move up" type product. The bluff lots will be custom type homes. They believe in flexibility for their customers to design their elevation and that would be the same for the traditional homes also. The main thing they want to do is create these different neighborhoods so they will also tie into one another through the use of some of the materials. The lifestyle houses would be between 1,700 and 2,100 square feet. The traditional housing would be between 2,300 and 3,800 square feet. The custom houses will be starting at 2,800 square feet and up. Ismail was concerned about the transition between each development. Perkey reviewed the transition plan which included entrance monuments, buffering the areas with trees, and the proposal of street trees. Wissner asked if there would be a homeowners association. Mark Anderson, Lundgren Builders, explained the responsibilities of the homeowners association for the lifestyle homes. The remainder of the project would have a more traditional association and explained what it would be responsible for. Franzen reviewed the staff report with the Commission. He explained this project uses a density transfer preservation of Outlot E, 4000 inches of trees, being exchanged for going to the small lot size, one level walkout type of product. The overall density is less than the guide plan density of 2.5 units per acre and the preservation of the Riley Creek Valley provides transition to the Rl-22 lot size on the east side of the creek. Staff recommended approval of the plan in its current form. There is an alternate plan for the southeast comer until they get a final approval from the archeologist. This would be subject to any findings. Sandstad was concerned whether there would be any physical decorative markers for the conservation easement of the creek area. Franzen said that's standard practice. Ismail was concerned about extending the sewer and water system. Gray said he would be recommending to the City Council that they formalize the 8 J~ Planninq Commission Minutes January 12, 1998 feasibility study in the next several weeks that would outline the sewer, water, and street improvements. He said having the City Council authorize that type of project, they would be proceeding in designing construction along this season. Sandstad was concerned that there would be a large number of units that have only one way out to a public roadway. He was not comfortable with only one access point. Wissner was also concerned about one way out and asked if there are any other developments in Eden Prairie similar to this with one way out. Gray said they have an area over by Howard Lane, and Bearpath would be another example. Wissner asked if they would be doing this project in phases or all at one time. Herbst replied they are planning three phases over approximately three to four years. Ismail asked about the price range of the homes. Anderson said the lifestyle homes are going to start at about $225,000 to $250,000. The traditional homes will start at $275,000 to $300,00. The custom homes will start at $400,00 and up. Sandstad noted that Bearpath has a second access point a quarter of a mile away from the other access. He was very uncomfortable with only one way out. Clinton asked if the Parks Commission's concerns have been addressed as stated in their memo. Herbs showed them on the map the wetland discussed in the memo. The question is who is best to protect that; the covenants, the wetland ordinance, or should the City take ownership of that. He said they are opposed to having the City take ownership of that because they have homes very close to that wetland. There's going to be a conflict between the private and public because there's going to be a park through there. He said the homeowners are extremely effective in protecting the area keeping trespassers out. He noted they make their original homeowners read a six or seven page disclosure document telling them what they can or can not do. Their association and neighbors can police that area better than the City of Eden 9 13 Planninq Commission Minutes January 12, 1998 Prairie and they are going to be more vocal about it and the City isn't even going to be aware of it. They are very concerned about this and do not want any trespassing or trails going up behind these homes. There will be a well defined trail system through the lots and they will be paying park fees for every lot which comes to $163,000. They feel it's important to leave that as private ownership. The public hearing was opened. , Ismail commented there will be about 300 cars coming from this development in a couple of years and asked if there has been any traffic study done to foresee any problem in that area or if it would be a problem. Gray said they don't see it as a problem. They anticipate in the long run that County Road I will be upgraded from what it is today and with this development they will need to do improvements at the intersection of that road with County Road I which would include turning lanes and bypass lanes. Habicht liked the project and was comfortable with smaller lot size because of the density transfer to protect the slopes. Sandstad asked if the developer had any other alternative to add a second access point. Herbs explained why this is the only feasible access point and the best location for it at this time. He noted the project will be done in three stages and maybe by then they can get something worked out. Sandstad said he liked the rest of the project even though he was nervous about one access point. Ismail commented he was not comfortable with the one way access point. Clinton said he liked the project and was not concerned about the second entrance. Habicht said it's everybody's intent that there be at least two access points. He said he would be willing to continue the public hearing for 30 days to explore a second access point. He would like to go on record as saying if there is no further movement with the development with adjacent property owners, he would vote to approve the project because it's a City issue and not an issue with the adjacent property owners. 10 Planninq Commission Minutes January 12, 1998 The Commission continued discussion about what alternatives could be taken regarding the one way access point, other developments in the same situation, and what language should be included in the motion. MOTION 1: Habicht moved, seconded by Foote, to close the public hearing. Motion carried 7-0. MOTION 2: Habicht moved, seconded by Foote, to recommend to the City Council approval of the request ofPemtom Land Company for Planned Unit Development Concept Review on 58.95 acres, Planned Unit Development District Review on 58.95 acres, Rezoning from Rural to RI-13.5 and RI-9.5 on 58.95 acres and Preliminary Plat on 58.95 acres into 117 lots and 4 outlots based on plans dated January 9, 1998, and subject to the recommendations of the Staff Report dated January 9, 1998, and subject to a strong recommendation to the City Council that the City, the developer, and the adjacent neighbors, if at all possible, provide a second access. Motion carried 7-0. 11 liJ Memorandum To: Mike Franzen, City Planner From: #: Stuart A. Fox, Manager of Parks and Natural Resources Date: January 6, 1998 Subject: Review of the Settlers Ridge by Parks Commission On January 5, 1998, the Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission reviewed the Settlers Ridge project. The project was approved on a 6-1 vote. The approval was subject to the recommendations included on the staff memo that is attached. There were a couple of clarifications made to the recommendations. They are as follows: • The trail width should be 8 feet rather than 10 feet because this is not a major roadway. • The Park Commission recommended that ownership of the southern wetland be public. The developer is proposing a scenic/conservation easement over the wetland area. • Staff will be checking the tree inventory data contained in the December 29, 1997- memo from Dwight Jelle of Westwood Professional Service. This Information will be ready prior to first reading at the City Council. • The "no" vote was from Commissioner Jacobson because he felt the house pads locations would allow houses to close to the steep bluff slopes.

SURVEY METHODOLOGY AND RESULTS The-field investigation was preceded by a review of State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) and Office of the State Archaeologist (OSA) files on the project area with vicinity. As Archaeological Research Services (ARS) already has completed a number of surveys in Eden Prairie and adjacent portions of Hennepin, Carver and Scott Counties, our files already contained most of the needed background data. Consequently, the review could focus primarily on current or very recent research in the area as well as, specifically, any infonnation already available for archaeological site 21 HE 2J. (Fieldmann Mounds) which was known to be located at least partially within the Perntom project area. The latter will be dicussed in the following s~ction. Next, ARS staff conducted a general walkover reconnaissance of the proposed project area. As burial mounds had been reported for the south/southeastern portions of the parcel, past land use and existing surface visibility were major concerns. It was quickly established that nearly all of the survey area was agricultural and had been deeply impacted by decades of cultivation. The present crop cover of mature soy beans was sparse enough to allow for an average surface exposure of 40 to 60% --visibility easily improved 11 10/30/97 1~:42 '6'715 S31 7500 AYRES ASSOC-E.\ fa] 003/010 p~.~om proj.c~. Page 2 by the raking of intermittent beds of dry leaf litter. In most cases, the field edges coincided with the upper edge of steep bluff slopes towards Riley Creek (on the east/northeast) and the Minnesota River (on the south and southwest). Only in a few places were there small wooded terraces that had escaped plow impact. In most cases, these areas still afforded excellent subsoil exposure in the form of incipient erosion gullies near the upper edges of the main valley slope. Our conclusion was that the entire parcel could be reliably investigated through close-interval surface inspection alone, without supplementary shovel testing (which in any case could not have been carried out in or near suspected mound locations) . Initial walkover inspection also focussed on the reported location and current condition of the 2l HE 21 mound group. The mounds were initially surveyed by T.H. Lewis on October 10, 1882. Nearly three decades later, his survey notes served as the basis for a description of the mounds in a published compendium of archaeo- logical sites in Minnesota (Winchell 1911). Winchell's map is included here as Figure 4. Out of a total of twenty mounds, seventeen are shown as distributed along the bluff line east and west of a wetland that has the same distinctive triangular shape as the existing perched wetland described earlier and shown on Figures .2 -4. (The ocher three mounds are described verbally as located further along --two on the first, one on the second point of the bluff 'west of the shown ones). During the initial field review, comparisons between Winchell's map and the existing topography (Figure 5) proved puzzling. Areas where' the mounds should have been located were all either too low, too sloping or simply too out of line with the existing bluff edge to allow for a convincing fit. Even the amount of erosion that would have occurred since the 1880s could not explain the discrepancy. In addition, the wetland, as depicted in Winchell, would, according to his scale', have a maximum width of approximately 330 feet. By comparison, the existing perched wetland, judging by historic aerial photographs stable in size for at least the last sixty years, measures approximately 470 feet in width. There is also a discrepance in the legal description. While Winchell gives the latter as the SE 1/4 of Section 30", a grouping of· the mounds around the perched wetland would place most of the mound group in the SW 1/4 of Section 30. A review of Lewis' original notes, obtained from the OSA files, immediately suggested a more logical explanation (Figure 6). According to Lewis, the wetland was actually even smaller -- approximately 145 feet in maximum width - -and also of a quite different, more rounded shape. Both in size and shape, this wetland corresponds closely to a depression located in t.he southeast corner of the project area, at the head or a steep-sided, actively eroding ravine. Our assumption that this oval depression could be the remnant of another, now drained, wetland seems supported by a series of aerial views taken at various times since 1937. The 1937 view (Figure 7) shows this segment of the field edge/bluffline 10/30 /97 14:43 '5'715 831 7500 AYRES ASSOC-E.C ~00-1/010 as a basically intact, gradual curve. The oval depression is dry but a light-colored area due southeast of the bluff/field edge indicates thae ehe latter has been impacted by erosion ehae has drained ehe wetland and started the e~~ansion of the ravine. By 1971 (Figure 8), the head of the ravine as progressed well northwest of the 1937 bluff line. Aerial photographs from 1.951., 1956 and 1962 (not shown here) illustrate the rapid deepening of the ravine. The continuation of this process is shown by a comparison between the 1971 aerial and the current topographic map (Figures 5 and 8). Photographs included as Figures 9 and 10 illustrate the severity of ongoing erosion and the current appearance of the oval depression and the eroded bluff line to its southeast. Working on the asumption that this presumed wetland was the one depicted by Lewis, ARS staff inspected the uplands west/northwest of the depression and continued east past the east boundary of the Pemtom parcel onto a narrowing spit of bluff top between Riley Creek and the main river valley (Figures 2, 7 and 8). Open and pastured, this eastward continuation of the bluff features several partially preserved mound features as well as, in the location of Lewis' Mound 6, a well preserved conical mound that closely matches the dimensions indicated in his notes. The map shown as Figure 11 was compiled by ARS using the map in Figure 5 and the 1971 aerial photo (reconciled to the same scale). It shows current topographic conditions, with Mounds 1 to 17 plotted according to Lewis' notes (taking into account that he used magnetic rather than true north) . In addition, it indicates (a) ehe possible location of Mounds l8 and 19 on the cultivated "next point of the bluff further west" and also (b) the presumed location of Mound 20 which appears to be still extant on the "second point fureher wese", in the woods just south of the Pemtom project boundary (Figure ~), 12- Surface inspection of the soybean fields and adjacent, wooded ravine edges was completed under good to excellent survey conditions prior to the harvese. Cultural evidence --all lithics items - -was found in the eastern portion, on the cultivaeed uplands immediately surrounding the oval depression and on wooded or cultivated terraces overlooking Riley Creek (Areas A through G on Figure 5). Similar evidence was also ehinly scaetered due east and wese/norehwese of ehe perched wetland as well as on ehe western portion of the main southern ridge (Areas H through L on Figure 5) . A complete list of items is found in Appendix Briefly summarized, each subarea produced the following materials: Area A 1 core, 1 piece of shatter Area B 1. utilized flake, 1 shatter, 1 secondary flake Area C 1 secondary flake 10/30/9i H:.u ~i15 531 i500 AYRES ASSOC-E.C 1aJ005 /010 Area D --the eip of a projectile point, 1 reeouched/utilized flake, 1 crude biface, 2 cores, 2 decortication flakes, 6 secondary flakes (or fragments) Area E 1 shatter, 1 secondary flake Area F 1 utilized flake, 1 biface fragment Area G --2 retouched flakes, 1 core, 1 decortication shatter, 1 secondary and 1 tertiary flake Area H 1 retouched/utilized flake, 1 core, 1 decortication shateer Area I --notched biface fragment, 2 retouched flakes, 1 decortication flake, 1 grindstone, 1 chopper (1) Area J --2 biface fragments, 1 retouched/utilized flake, 2 utilized flakes, 1 hammers tone , 3 cores, 2 decortication shatters, 6 secondary flakes Area K --crude biface fragment, 1. utilized flake, 2 decort- ication flakes Area L --1 core, 1 shatter, 1 secondary flake. Most of these items were of oolitic or mottled Prairie du Chien chere see further in Appendix --. There were no distinct concentrations, only dispersed items though at varying degrees of frequency. With the exception of two items found eroding out of a narrow spit of wooded terrace --Area E --all the evidence were found on the cultivated surface. The admixture of sterile mineral soil in Areas I I K and L indicated the the latter have been completely plowed through. All other areas may seill contain undisturbed cultural materials below the plow horizon a possibility that could not be investigated further due to the possible presence of burial remains. CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATION The investigation of the mound group was conducted in consultation with the State Archaeologist. OSA staff seems likely to concur with our conclusions regarding the location of the mounds but will await the submission of the final report before making further comments. If our reconstruction of ehe mound locations is correct, Mounds 1 to 11 would appear to lie ease or the project area while Mounds 13 to 17 would be close enough co the current bluff edge to be fairly easily avoided by the proposed development. The locations of Mounds 18 and 19 appear likely to fall within the southern portions of Lots 8 and 9 in Subdivision 1. Mound 20 appears to lie outside the projece boundary. Of greater concern is probably Mound 12 which 10/30/9i 14:44 "B'il5 SJl i500 AYRES ASSOC-E.C 1a)006 /010 . would appear to fall within Lots 19 and 20 of Subdivision 1 and possibly also within parts of the proposed Street B right-of-way. Further exploration of 21 HE 21 --especially the pastured portion east of the project area/north of Mounds 1-11 but also Areas D,E and F within the project boundaries --may well prove that part of the habitation component of the site to have the research potential needed to meet National Register criteria of eligibility. Though part of the same complex, Areas I, K and L would appear too disturbed to be considered as II contributing" . _ Consequently, they would not seem to warrant further study or protection. If OSA concurs with our reconstruction of the mound locations and agrees that the habitation area north of the mounds can be investigated, the most feasible way of doing so may be to mechanically strip the topsoil off Areas C,D,and F (as well as, possibly, also northern Area B) in order to ascertain whether undisturbed habitation materials still exist below the plow horizon. If they don't, these areas could presumably-also be classified as "non-contributing" and therefore be developed as long as the required protection buffer is maintained to the mounds. 10/30/07 101: H '5'715 S31 7600 .\YRES .\SSOC £.

The concept of a second street entrance at the existing haul road location is acceptable to Hennepin County. Although no extra work on County State Aid Highway (CSAR) 1, Pioneer Trail, will be required, an entrance permit for upgrading to a street entrance will be required. This permit can also cover the street on the Dorenkemper parcel including its westbound by- pass lane. Again, thanks for the inquiry and please call me at 930-2548 with further questions or discussion. Sincerely, ;1 ,<}.Jl,L-L .. David K.

Lundgren Bros. Construction is excited to have the opportunity to be a part in this project. It is our intent to build our "Lifestyle" product line on the smaller lots in the development, which is the same product you saw in our Nottingham subdivision in Maple Grove. It is my understanding that we must provide an Architectural Diversity Plan. This plan, in effect, is the same as Lundgren Bros. "Monotony Code". The Monotony Code is set up by Lundgren Bros. states that no two units with the same elevation can be located next to each other, directly across the street or diagonal from one another. I believe that your Architectural Diversity plan states the same requirements. We feel that it is important to theme the elevations with similar materials and style to create a village feel, yet be different in form and mass with elevations that directly relate to one another. I am confident that our plan and elevation mix will create an elegant and desirable neighborhood in Settlers Ridge. I also wanted to let you know that we had the chance to visit the Eden Prairie Historical Center and picked up the book "The First 100 Years". We have incorporated many of these elements into the fenestration of our elevations for both the Traditional product line and the Lifestyle homes. Once again, Mike, we are extremely excited to be involved with such a unique site and look forward to working with you in the near future. Please let me know if you have any questions. Sincerel ~ / Thank~ou, . ~/ Peter Beucke', A.IA Vice President of Design Lundgren Bros. Construction cc: Marc Anderson Dan Herbst To: Through: From: Date: Subject: BACKGROUND: Memorandum Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission Mayor and City Council Bob Lambert, Director of Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Stuart A. Fox, Manager of Parks and Natural Resources December 29, 1997 Settlers Ridge Development Proposal Settlers Ridge is a proposed development for the southwestern comer of Eden Prairie. It is south of Pioneer Trail and north of the Richard T. Anderson Conservation Area. This project is presented to the Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission prior to the Planning Commission because of the January meeting schedule. The project is scheduled for review by the Planning Commission on January 12, 1997; however, because of the Martin Luther King holiday on January 19 no Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission meeting can be scheduled at that time. This project is being proposed by Pemtom Land Development on approximately 59 acres of land. They are proposing 117 single family units on this site. NATURAL RESOURCE ISSUES: Tree Loss/Landscaping Currently, the site is a farm field with transition areas to the south along the bluff area and to the north along Riley Creek. The majority ofthe development takes place along the flat upland area that is currently being farmed; however, there will be a slight impact on some ofthe trees on the site. A full detail of the tree loss calculations will have to done prior to first reading at the City Council. The reason for this is that the impact of the storm water drainage system, which will take water from the proposed NURP pond into Riley Creek, uses an alignment through an existing wooded ravine. This ravine was a result of erosion over the years from this farmland plateau. The staff does not have a complete list of trees in that ravine and the tree loss calculations would have to be based on the final storm water alignment and restoration work. The proposed landscaping plan lists 228 trees. This includes a number of deciduous and coniferous species. The predominant landscape plant is deciduous comprised of marshalls ash, hackberry, red sunset maple, pin oak, and swamp white oak. The coniferous material is listed as Colorado green spruce. The majority oftbis landscaping is designed as a street scape to line the various roadways. The staff would recommend that any street scape plantings be 10' from the right-of-way line. The reason for this is to keep the trees back from the street sufficiently so they do not become a maintenance problem for the proposed trails. In addition, the staffhave requested that the developer show a landscaping plan to screen Outlot F from two adjacent single family lots. This screening is recommended so the trail connection to the Richard T. Anderson Conservation Area is screened from backyards of the adjacent homes. Sidewalks and Trails Staff is recommending that a 8' wide trail be constructed concurrent with this development along the south side of Street A and the south side of Street B. In addition, the developer would be responsible for a three meter trail connection from Street B southward to the south end of Outlot F. Outlot Dedication/Conservation Easements The developer has met with the staff and is considering dedication of Outlots Band F to the City or presenting them as a gift. The staff was comfortable with either of these options. However, if the option is to gift the outlots a scenic and conservation easements should be placed across Outlot E and a trail easements be placed across Outlot F at the time of final platting of this property. This would keep these area offlimits to general disturbance until such time that the developer was able to present the City with a deed. One additional request that is being evaluated by the developer is the location of the lot lines within the wetland delineation on the south side of Lots 9-14, Block 1. The staff has requested that the developer look at placing this area into an outlot and also dedicating or gifting this property to the City. The final status of this is not known at the time of this staff report writing; however, this is a question that needs to be resolved at the Planning Commission meeting. NURPPond Storm water drainage from the majority of the streets and yards will be directed into the storm water system in the streets and carried to the NURP pond on the west end of the project. At this point, the solids will be precipitated out and the overflow directed into Riley Creek by a series of closed pipes. The calculations for this NURP pond are being evaluated by the Engineering Department and will have to meet City and Watershed District approval prior to construction. An additional part of the storm water drainage system is to handle backyard drainage adjacent to steep slopes. There are four areas of backyard drainage that will help direct water away from the steep slopes in an effort to minimize the amount of water flowing over the steep bluff slopes. Two of the backyard drainage systems are directed to the wetland along the south side ofthe project. The staff is asking for calculations regarding the amount of water that will be directed to that wetland due to the lack of an overflow pipe. The developer and his engineering staff will be presenting the City staff with those calculations. Another portion of the overall drainage plan for this project is to try to stabilize a number of the problem erosion areas that are currently present on the site. The City Engineering Department staff and the Watershed District staff are evaluating this active erosion control plan. Details ofthis plan will be worked out by the City Engineering Department and the developer prior to issuance of a grading permit. Archaeological Survey A number of burial mounds have been indicated to be present on the southeastern comer of this property. The developer is working together with the City staff, the Historical Preservation Commission, and the State Archaeologist. A complete survey of these mounds, as well as how they would affect the backyard drainage system for Lots 1-5, Block 2 will be evaluated prior to any excavation on the site. Currently, the developer is working to ascertain the location ofthese burial mounds and has involved people from the engineering firm and State Archaeologists Office. Cash Park Fees The appropriate cash park fees would be charged at the time of building permit for this proposed project. Because this project is being reviewed prior to the Planning Commission, the staff would recommend approval of the project based on the following recommendations: • Complete tree inventory and mitigation plan be calculated according the final utility plan. • That ownership of Outlots E and F be determined by the developer and prior to first reading at the City Council. • That 8 foot wide trails be constructed concurrent with development along the south side of Street A and the south side of Street B, as well as through Outlot F. • That landscaping materiaVstreet scape trees be kept 10' back from the street right-of-way line. • That any erosion control or active erosion repair be coordinated according to City staff and Watershed District recommendations. • That an accurate archaeological survey be completed according to the State Archaeologist in determining the building pads and rear yard storm drainage system. • That active erosion control be done in accordance with Watershed District and City Engineering staff guidelines. • That appropriate cash park fees be paid.

Settler's RidKe Staffreferred the Commission to a memo dated December 29, 1997 from Stuart A. Fox, Manager of Parks and Natural Resources. Dwight Jelle, Westwood Professional Services, reviewed the site plan noting the proposal consists of 117 single family units with three different products. There will be no maintenance townhomes, medium size housing, and then fairly large houses located on the bluffs. Currently, the site is a farm field with transition areas to the south along the bluff area and to the north along Riley Creek. The majority of the development takes place along the rolling upland area that is currently being farmed. He pointed out the NURP pond area and noted they are working with the State Archeologist to determine the exact location of some Indian burial mounds located in the southwest portion. They are proposing a park gift of six acres to Eden Prairie on the north side which is the whole ravine area of Riley Creek and also a 40 foot wide trail connection down to the existing road which is within the City's option area. There will also be two main trails, one adjacent to Street A and one adjacent to Street B, down to the City option property. The staffreport discussed a 10 foot wide trail but they would rather make it an eight foot wide trail because their right-of-ways are about 11 feet and would like to have some buffer between the trail and curb. He explained the erosion correction proposed noting they will work with the Watershed District and City Staff to determine what gets repaired. They don't intend to go all the way down to the bottom for repairs. Lambert reviewed the staff report and noted the eight foot wide trail was acceptable. He explained this development is on the Peterson property which is north of the property that the City acquired. The City acquired 68 acres to the southwest of this site along the bluffs and they are acquiring that on a five year contract for deed with the Petersons and the Kleins. The City just recently completed acquisition of a 17 acre parcel which is due south of the southeast comer of this site. They received a grant for that and have an option on a 30 acre parcel between those two sites which 2 3 I Unapproved Minutes Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Monday, January 5, 1998 Koenig was not comfortable with the lots going right up to the edge of the bluffs. Lambert said he drew the line where the bluff lot lines would be and explained why he drew it right over the edge of the bluff. Koenig asked if staff was comfortable with that area being environmentally maintained. Lambert said staff have no significant concerns. Hilgeman said she likes the landscaping plan but was uncomfortable not having a tree loss number. Fox explained why there is no tree loss number yet noting the tree loss would probably be very small. MOTION: Wilson moved, seconded by Stolar, to approve the Settlers Ridge project per staff recommendations and further review of the Planning Commission, and recommend the wetlands in the south be under City ownership. Motion carried 6-1 with the no vote by Jacobson. Jacobson indicated that he believes the wetlands should be in private ownership because he's very nervous about the lots being so close to the bluff area. He noted about a year ago he voted no on a proposal which was right up against the bluff area also. VI. OLD BUSINESS A. Prairie Bluff Conservation Area ManaKement Plan Task Force Report Staff referred the Commission to a memo dated December 29, 1997 from Bob Lambert, Director of Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources. Diane Desotelle, Peterson Environmental Consultants, indicated they have prepared a management plan for the Prairie Bluff Conservation Area. She reviewed the document and summarized the process and what the key components of the management plan are. She explained the plan was designed to provide a short and long term management option for the Prairie Bluff Conservation Area in order to protect, preserve, and restore the land to it's native prairie, oak, savannah, and oak basswood forest found on the site. MOTION: Hilgeman moved, seconded by Wilson, to approve the Prairie Bluff Management Plan. Motion carried 7-0. 4 EDEN PRAIRIE CITY COUNCIL AGENDA DATE: 2-17-98 SECTION: PUBLIC HEARINGS ITEM NO. \fe, DEPARTMENT: ITEM DESCRIPTION: Community Development Chris Enger BORDERS BOOKS, CAFE & RESTAURANT Michael D. Franzen Requested Council Action: The Staff recommends that the Council take the following action: 1. Close the Public Hearing; 2. Approve 1 st Reading of the Ordinance for PUD District Review on 9 acres and Zoning District Amendment within the C-Reg-Ser Zoning District on 9 acres; 3. Adopt the Resolution for PUD Concept Amendment on 9 acres; 4. Adopt the Resolution for Preliminary Plat of9 acres into 2 lots and 1 outlot; and 5. Direct Staff to prepare a Development Agreement incorporating Commission and Staff recommendations (and Council conditions). Background: This site is lots 12 and 13 of the approved 1978 Hartford Planned Unit Development which were zoned commercial regional service for 78,000 square feet of building area. Lot 12 was approved for 40,000 square feet and lot 13 was approved for 38,000 square feet. (See Exhibit A). Future uses contemplated as part of the 1978 plan included restaurants, motels with meeting and banquet facilities, amusement and entertainment, service retail, professional offices including medical and dental, and sales offices. These are also permitted uses in the commercial regional service zoning district. The PUD was amended in the 1994 Hartford Place PUD to show lot 13 (4.5 acres) as wetland, ponding, and a buffer zone. The approved plan for Lot 12 (4.5 acres) was not amended, meaning the 40,000 square foot plan remains the approved plan. The 1994 PUD did not include a specific plan for development or indicate permitted uses. The staffreport recommended that the site develop as follows: • Building coverage based on maximum base area ratio of .20, or approximately 40,000 square feet. • A 50 foot buffer zone on the east side adjacent to the Pulte Townhouses with a 9 foot high berm and triple row of 6-8 high conifers and 2~ to 4 inch shade trees. Berm and planting to be installed concurrent with construction of the town homes. (This has been completed). I • A triple row of plant materials on the north side of the wetland with 6-8 foot high conifers and 2 ~ to 4 inch shade trees. Distance and plantings will create the transitions. The plants should be installed concurrent construction of the commercial uses. Development Proposal: The site plan shows the construction of a 24,640 square foot Borders Books, and a 7,200 square foot restaurant with outdoor seating and an optional plan for a 9,000 square foot restaurant without outdoor seating. Planning Commission Recommendation The Planning Commission voted 7-0 to approve the Borders Bookstore. The Planning Commission voted 7-0 to deny the restaurant on the finding that the site plan was inconsistent with the 1978 approved plan, that the proposed plan did not mitigate the adverse impacts on the adjoining residential areas, that general retail or office was a more compatible land use, and that all proposed berming and landscaping adjacent to the residential areas on both sites be installed concurrent with the construction of the bookstore.

"::1-- , Staff Report Borders Books and Restaurant January 23, 1998 BACKGROUND This site is lots 12 and 13 of the approved 1978 Hartford Planned Unit Development which were zoned commercial regional service for 78,000 square feet of building area. Lot 12 was approved for 40,000 square feet and lot 13 was approved for 38,000 square feet. (See Exhibit A). Future uses contemplated as part of the 1978 plan included restaurants, motels with meeting and banquet facilities, amusement and entertainment, service retail, professional offices including medical and dental, and sales offices. These are also permitted uses in the commercial regional service zoning district. The PUD was amended in the 1994 Hartford Place PUD to show lot 13 (4.5 acres) as wetland, ponding, and a buffer zone. The approved plan for Lot 12 (4.5 acres) was not amended, meaning the 40,000 square foot plan remains the approved plan. The 1994 PUD did not include a specific plan for development or indicate permitted uses. The staff report recommended that the site develop as follows: • Building coverage based on maximum base area ratio of .20, or approximately 40,000 square feet. • A 50 foot buffer zone on the east side adjacent to the Pulte Townhouses with a 9 foot high berm and triple row of 6-8 high conifers and 2 Y2 to 4 inch shade trees. Berm and planting to be installed concurrent with construction of the town homes. (This has been completed). • A triple row of plant materials on the north side of the wetland with 6-8 foot high conifers and 2 Y2 to 4 inch shade trees. Distance and plantings will create the transitions. The plants should be installed concurrent construction of the commercial uses. LAND USE AND ZONING The site is guided regional commercial. The zoning of the property is commercial regional service which allows retail sales and services which require relatively large sites, and attract little or no pedestrian traffic and are not typically found in shopping center structures such as the Eden Prairie Center. Examples of permitted uses are restaurants, hotels, gas stations, auto dealerships and strip retail shopping. All permitted land uses are required by City Code to minimize the adverse impacts on nearby dwellings. The City must determine if the proposed land uses are compatible with the approved plan and the surrounding area. A full service gas station, for example, would not be compatible 2 Staff Report Borders Books and Restaurant January 23, 1998 because lights, noise, and traffic impacts could not be mitigated since the homes are located close to this site. The City code also requires a transition where there are differences in land use, building mass, height, densities and site intensity. Transitions may be accomplished by increased setbacks, berming, plantings, lower site densities, lower floor area ratios, and smaller buildings. IS THE PROPOSED PLAN CONSISTENT WITH THE APPROVED PLAN? The proposed plan shows less square footage than the approved plan and occupies the same amount of land area for building and parking. The proposed plan is consistent with the development guidelines of the 1994 staff report for 4.5 acres of open space, buffer, and a triple row of plant materials. PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT CONCEPT AMENDMENT The request is to amend the 1978 PUD of approximately 40,000 square feet of commercial use in one building to 33,640 square feet in two buildings (24,640 square feet, and 9,000 square feet). The westerly outlot will remain as open space and wetland, consistent with the 1994 PUD amendment. The landscaped benn and buffer are consistent with the 1994 PUD amendment. SITE PLAN/PRELIMINARY PLAT The site plan shows the construction of a 24,640 square foot Borders Books, and a 7,200 square foot restaurant with outdoor seating at a total base area ratio of .16., with an optional plan for a 9,000 square foot restaurant without outdoor seating at a base area ratio of .17. City Code permits up to a .20 base area ratio in the C-Reg-Ser district. Both restaurant options provide for a total of 250 seats. The buildings meet the setback requirements of the C-Reg-Ser zoning district. The amount of parking required by City Code is 232 spaces. The plan provides 242 spaces. The parking setback from road right of way requires 35 feet. On a comer lot, one frontage can have a 17.5 foot setback to parking. The plan meets City Code except for two spaces located on the west side of the restaurant entrance. The plan should be revised to meet a 35 foot setback in this area. The preliminary plat subdivides the site into 2 lots and 1 outlot. Both lots meet City Code for dimension and area. Outlot A will be dedicated to the City for preservation of the wetland area. 3 Staff Report Borders Books and Restaurant January 23, 1998 The plan uses cross parking and access, and shows a zero lot line setb.ack to parking. City Code requires a 10 foot setback. A waiver will be necessary through the PUD. The waiver may have merit since it provides for a greater buffer zone on the west side. GRADING AND TREE LOSS There are no significant trees on the site. All the natural vegetation will remain on Outlot A. LANDSCAPING The amount of landscaping required for this site is based on caliper inches according to building size, screening of parking areas, and maintaining the landscaping buffer to the residential development. The amount of caliper inches required is 177 inches. The plan shows 421 caliper inches. The 10 foot planted berm along the south side will remain as part of the development and will be extended to wrap around the southwest comer for additional screening. All dead plant material will be replaced together with additional plantings to enhance the buffer between the property and the residential development. The landscaping buffer is consistent with the 1994 PUD. ARCHITECTURE The buildings meet the exterior material requirements of the C-Reg-Ser zoning district for 75% face brick and glass. Building architecture is consistent with the 1994 PUD. The face brick color will need to match the face brick used for the Petsmart building. The loading area on the east side of the building will be fully enclosed. Mechanical equipment will be screened by parapet wall. The site plan incorporates elements of the Downtown Design Framework, including architectural accent treatments and decorative lighting. UTILITIES AND DRAINAGE Sewer and water is available in Prairie Center Drive and Rolling Hills Road. The existing NURP pond will be maintained. This pond was designed to accommodate full development of this commercial site. SIDEWALKS A sidewalk will be added along Prairie Center Drive from the intersection of Preserve Boulevard. It will extend along to Rolling Hills Road and connect with the existing sidewalk constructed with residential development to the south. Pedestrian connections to feed into the site are also 4 10 Staff Report Borders Books and Restaurant January 23, 1998 proposed. SIGNS A monument sign for each building is proposed along Prairie Center Drive. These signs do not meet City Code for setback and size and will need to be revised prior to Council review. The proposed wall signs for Borders Books meet City Code for size. However, the sign on the front of the building exceeds the permitted height. A wall sign may be attached to a parapet wall that extends around the entire building, but may not be placed higher than the level which is consistent for all sides of the building. The parapet wall increases in height on the front of the building. This increased height can not be used for the location of the sign. The plan needs to be revised to meet City Code prior to Council review. LIGHTING All site lighting for the buildings and parking lot shall not exceed 20 feet, and must be downcast cutoff fixtures. The plans propose a maximum 20 foot downcast cutoff shoebox fixture consistent with this requirement. STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS Alternative One If the Planning Commission believes that Planned Unit Development Concept Amendment is acceptable, that the adverse impacts on the surrounding area are low and mitigated, then one option would be to recommend approval of the PUD Concept Amendment on 9 acres, PUD District Review on 9 acres, Zoning District Amendment in the Commercial Regional Service Zoning District on 5.7 acres, Site Plan Review on 5.7 acres, and Preliminary Plat of9 acres into 2 lots and 1 outlot based on plans dated January 9, 1998 and subject to the recommendations ofthe Staff Report dated January 23, 1998 and subject to the following conditions: 1. Prior to City Council review, the proponent shall: A. Revise the parking plan to meet a 35 foot setback along Prairie Center Drive for the restaurant site. B. Revise the sign plan to meet City Code for setback and size for both monument signs, and height for the wall sign on the front of Borders Books. 5 II Staff Report Borders Books and Restaurant January 23, 1998 2. Prior to final plat approval, the proponent shall submit detailed storm water runoff, utility and erosion control plans for review by the City Engineer and Watershed District. 3. Prior to Building Permit issuance, the proponent shall: A. Pay the appropriate cash park fee. B. Meet with the Fire Marshal to go over fire code requirements. C. Submit samples of exterior building materials for review. D. Submit lighting details for review consistent with the Downtown Design Framework for style and color, including maximum 20 foot downcast cutoff fixtures for both building and parking lot lighting. E. Submit a landscaping and screening bond for review. 4. A waiver for zero lot line setback to parking is granted through the PUD. Alternative Two If the Planning Commission believes that Planned Unit Development Concept Amendment is not acceptable, and that the adverse impacts on the surrounding area are high and are not mitigated, then one option would be to recommend a continuance for the following reason: • Additional berming and plant materials are needed to provide a better buffer to the east and the south. Alternative Three If the Planning Commission believes that Planned Unit Development Concept Amendment is not acceptable, and that adverse impacts on the surrounding area are high and are not mitigated, then one option would be to recommend denial for the following reasons: • There is not enough room on site to create an adequate buffer to offset the visual, lighting, and noise impacts. • The restaurant should be located on the property to the north near the signalized intersection at Prairie Lakes Drive and Prairie Center Drive. 6 I') Staff Report Borders Books and Restaurant January 23, 1998 • Other retail sales or professional offices would be more compatible next to residential.

PUBLIC HEARINGS A. BORDERS BOOKS & CAFE by The Daly Group. Request for PUD Concept Amendment on 9 acres to the overall Hartford PUD, PUD District Review on 9 acres, Zoning District Amendment within the C-Reg-Ser District on 5.7 acres, Site Plan Review on 5.7 acres, and Preliminary Plat of9 acres into 2 lots and 1 outlot. Location: Southwest comer of Prairie Center Drive and Rolling Hills Road. John Dietrich, engineer, presented background history of the site and reviewed the site plan noting they will meet each of the criteria. This is a delicate site which borders commercial property to the north and abuts and borders the residential property to the south, Carriage Court and the Hartford Townhomes. The proposal is for a sit down restaurant and a Borders book store which would be complimentary uses. These uses have the opportunity to share parking, share common access drives, and also meet all the criteria that was established in the 1994 PUD zoning amendment. He reviewed the landscaping and grading plan and noted there is additional landscaping and screening that allows this whole site to function and be below the 1994 PUD criteria of square footage buildable area, parking, and traffic generation. The landscaping plan represents about 2.5 times the required amount of landscaping. In terms of landscaping, they are at approximately 470 caliper inches which is about 2.6 times the criteria of what is necessary for this site to move forward. There were two neighborhood meetings for people within 300 feet, and one for the southern border of the site and Carriage Court Townhomes. The discussions were good and they had the opportunity to find out what the residents wanted. They have reduced parking on the site which allows them to have a landscape berm and screening along the entire property line. The berm will be 10 feet high from the elevation of the parking lot area to the top of the berm and heavily landscaped. The height of the berm above the first floor elevation from the townhomes ranges from seven feet up to 10 feet. The landscaping proposed includes a series of trees, 8, 10, and 12 foot conifers per the PUD that was approved in 1994. This plan makes a good separation between the site and the residential areas. They pushed the restaurant as far north into the site as possible so it's over 300 feet away from any residential properties. The focus of the activity is to the north. The front doors of both Borders and the restaurant will face to the 2 I~ Planning Commission Minutes January 26, 1998 north towards Prairie Center Drive. Tony Casada, architect, representing Borders book store, explained all the major activity areas where there is light and a lot of pedestrian use faces Prairie Center Drive and away from the residential area. The front entrance faces the parking lot area and there is a covered walkway that shields the entrance. The loading dock area faces Rolling Hills Road and it has been completely enclosed and made part of the building shell. He reviewed the architecture of the building noting the building utilizes at least 75 percent or more facebrick and glass. There are various colors of brick that are used spanding around the entire building and the brick chosen will compliment the other retail facilities. One of the comments from staff was that the Borders' sign on the front elevation exceeds the height that is allowed by ordinance. They will work with staff to revise the location of the sign to make it work. Dietrich noted they have taken the site plan and worked within the criteria of the 1994 PUD and exceeded the minimum standards of setbacks, of landscaping, and ofberming so they eliminate the adverse action of the access to the residential properties to the south. This site has been guided and zoned for commercial retail service. They can move the building as far north as they can looking to provide a sense of enclosure for this type of activity, and allow the traffic transportation and functions all go to the north. It was their request that this site plan be looked at as a complimentary type use. They will fully comply with all the conditions identified in Alternative #1 listed in the staff report. Franzen reviewed the staff report and explained the legal status this property has which was determined back in 1978. He noted there was nothing specific in the original development plan that said this should be a book store or restaurant. All permitted land uses are required by City Code to minimize the adverse impacts on nearby dwellings. The City must determine if the proposed land uses are compatible with the approved plan and the surrounding area. A full service gas station, for example, would not be compatible because the lights, noise, and traffic impacts could not be mitigated since the homes are located close to this site. There are many other possibilities that could work on the property which are allowed uses but they have to mitigate the impacts on the surrounding areas. This is the primary reason why the staff report is optional. He explained the 3 11 Planning Commission Minutes January 26, 1998 three alternatives listed in the staff report and noted staff was comfortable with option # 1. The public hearing was opened. Linda Schaffer, 11538 Carriage Court, was concerned about what type of restaurant is proposed. She has heard maybe a Champs or a TOI Fridays and was concerned about a restaurant with a liquor license. Eden Prairie consists of young families raising small children. Her development has a lot of single women and she was against having a liquor serving establishment in her backyard. She was concerned about the loud noise that a Champs or Fridays would have during summer time. They have outdoor seating and they use loud speakers to announce tables. This is something that a berm is not going to take care of. She was also concerned about delivery trucks they would have coming into the area with that type of restaurant. These types of restaurants draw crowds that are there to party and have a good time. She has been to both restaurants. They are quality restaurants but it's not the kind of restaurant she wants in her backyard. She noted she wrote a letter to the mayor last week stating what she thought would be a better proposal in line with the Borders book store. She would rather see a Caribou Coffee or any of the bagel shops which are more appropriate and fits in with the book store. They would draw crowds that are for short periods of time. She also expressed concern about loosing the value in her home because nobody would want to move into that kind of neighborhood if she wanted to sell it. The benning sounds wonderful but it's not going to block out the noise. Gretchen Ebert, 11516 Carriage Court, commented she has no problem with Borders but a restaurantlbar just does not fit in with the neighborhood. They already have increased traffic and noise. A bar\restaurant would bring more noise at all hours from the parking lot and the proposed outdoor seating. She was concerned about cooking odors, lights shining in her bedroom windows, security of their homes, and resale value of the homes. No amount ofberming or landscaping could screen them from those impacts. It would be wiser to do it by the Pet Smart. Penny Hanson, 11043 Lexington Drive, noted her home is located at the end of the development on the other side of the berm. She is also across the street directly looking at where the proposed Cinema development will be. In her opinion she is in the most vulnerable spot of this development. She knew they 4 IZ Planning Commission Minutes January 26, 1998 would be developing some type of restaurant and retail establishment. She requested the Planning Commission and the City to consider having the developer increase the size of the berm throughout the whole way and placing a fence between Borders and her area. There is always going to be foot traffic and this would insure some type of safety between the people going into the retail establishment and the residents who want to sit on their patio in the evemng. Sharon Ahl, 11594 Carriage Court, noted they are located in the backyard of the restaurant. The language used by the developer that it's a "delicate situation" is a very good word. No other site in Eden Prairie, to her knowledge, has a major restaurant so close or adjacent to a residential community. This would only create a precedent which would be detrimental to this residential community. She was concerned about the noise, the lights, and the smell when they want to enjoy their backyards on a summer night. There are more appropriate land uses for that land which would be complimentary to the area. This would be three restaurants within a half block because two restaurants have already been approved near the cinema on Rolling Hills. There would also be an increase in the generation of traffic from these three restaurants. The City is welcoming affordable housing on one hand but in effect destroying it and all the amenities as a result of this proposal. Andrea Poncius, 8486 Minute Men Alcove, commented she knew something would be developed when she purchased her home. The current proposal is not compatible for this area. This proposal would include a restaurantibar within feet of her front door which is not appropriate. She didn't understand how a restaurant does not fit in within the same parameters as the criteria was for a gas station not being compatible on this site as stated in the staff report. She was concerned about the noise in her bedroom or downstairs as a result of the bar being open until 1 :00 a.m. She also expressed concern about what happens in the parking lot late at night since she lives so close. She didn't believe this proposal was appropriate for this land use. The late hours of the restaurant, the noise, the lights, the smell of the food, are all concerns of her. She noted they currently smell food coming from the Asia Grill restaurant. She commented that the conifer trees are not tall enough where they will see any immediate impacts of the landscaping. She doesn't want to have to wait 10 to 15 years for the trees to grow. Richard Tesh, 8484 Minute Men Alcove, commented he shares the same 5 Planning Commission Minutes January 26, 1998 concerns as his neighbors. There is no way to get away from the smell and the noise while sitting on their patio. He would rather have anything but a restaurant on this site, and something that is not open until 1:00 a.m. He didn't feel the berm was high enough at 10 feet tall. They live on a dead end street and they have had one robbery in the last year on their street. He was concerned about the security of the homes because people could walk right over the berm and get to their homes. Richard Hocking, attorney, representing Borders, commented he understood the neighborhood reaction but they have to understand the landowner has a right to deal with the usage of that property consistent with the ordinances and the zoning that exists with the site. His client has spent a lot of time looking for potential users of this property and determined that the two uses that are proposed on this site right now are uses that are consistent with the market demand and are attractive uses to the site. Everyone has to look at where this site was in terms of its original density and it's original type of use, and look at it now in terms of the square footage that's being taken by these two proposed uses. Everyone has to recognize it's a significantly smaller impact than would have existed prior to the 1994 amendment taking place. This is a commercially zoned property and it has been zoned that way long before any residential dwellings were built that border this property. They are permitted uses but every effort has been made to minimize the impacts that would exist to these residential dwellings that came into place long after this property was zoned commercial. Any use on this commercial property will have impact to the residential dwellings. They believe the proposal is a quality proposal for this neighborhood and area and requested the Planning Commission to recommend Alternative #1. Bill Hoag, developer, commented they are a selected developer for the tri- state area in the midwest. They have looked at a number of sites in Eden Prairie and have selected this site from the standpoint that it meets their criteria. They believe Borders will be a very attractive addition to the community and will have some say themselves in conjunction with some of the concerns the residents have raised. Wissner asked if Borders will have a coffee area and how many people will it seat. Hoag said they will have a coffee bar and the seating area will be no more than 10 percent of the total area of the facility. He said there was mention by a resident of possibly a Caribou Coffee instead of the restaurant and this would be a conflicted use for Borders. 6 Planning Commission Minutes January 26, 1998 Foote asked if they explored any other uses for the restaurant site. He also asked if the restaurant is designated to have a bar that will be open until 1:00 a.m. Hogan said right now they don't know. At this point they are dealing with both restaurant users that require a liquor license and also those that don't require a liquor license. Kelly Tesh, 8484 Minute Men Alcove, said at the last neighborhood meeting she asked Mr. Dietrich what was proposed there. Mr. Dietrich's answer was because ofthe price of the land being so expensive, the only feasible thing that could go in there, as far as a restaurant, was a restaurant with a liquor license. She noted this was the biggest concern of the neighborhood. Hogan commented it will probably go in the direction it is going for the reasons stated by Dietrich. Alexander commented she would be more comfortable with a restaurant of this type being proposed up near the signal light at Prairie Lake Drive and Prairie Center Drive rather than so close to the residential area. Foote said he agreed with Alexander. He didn't think a restaurant of this size with a liquor license would necessarily fit in this location. He was comfortable with Borders book store at this location and had no problem with it at all. However, he was concerned about one housing unit right on the comer in Section HH. There is virtually no berm. They are going to be right next door to Borders and he would like to see the berm go all the way across to the street if possible. Wissner commented they are not mitigating the impacts to the residential area. She was not comfortable with the restaurant because it's very large and a berm is not going to stop the noise, the lights, or the smell from carrying over the wetlands to the residential property. She was also concerned about fencing keeping people from coming up to the residential property. She supported Borders book store. Sandstad supported the project although he was inclined to continue and allow the developer some time to improve the transitional buffer between the restaurant and the residential area. The transition could be improved in a couple of different ways. Prairie Center Drive is Eden Prairie's marketplace and it's a good location for this project ifthey protect the residents. Habicht disagreed with Sandstad and felt the developer did a wonderful job providing a transition and buffer. He also commended the neighbors on their 7 ~I Planning Commission Minutes January 26, 1998 receptiveness to the fact this is going to be a commercial development. He was not comfortable with a restaurant of this size abutting residential property. He supported the developer's rights and desire to develop a commercial site here. This is Eden Prairie's hub but he would be inclined to look for a different use. He supported a continuance but didn't what could done at this point to make him more comfortable with a restaurant since the restaurants are a better land use next to the traffic signal on the Regal site. Clinton supported Borders book store but shared the same concerns to mitigate the noise that comes from the restaurant. He said berming does not do it and referred to his own home. He said he can hear the auto races down in Bloomington River in Shakopee from his deck. He preferred to have it closer to a signal. Franzen said it seemed the Planning Commission was moving in the direction to split the project and asked, as part of the motion, they give direction as to the land use for the other parcel. Both of these proj ects kind of relied upon this common berming and landscaping and that's between the last unit on Minute Men Alcove and the restaurant. A berm and plant materials were required as a condition of the approval of the original 1994 PUD and wanted to make sure that it does not get lost as part of the project. He asked for clarification as to whether or not the Planning Commission wants to have all the berming and landscaping installed with this project, or are they comfortable with what's needed to be done with Borders being installed now, and with whatever happens with the other part being installed later. MOTION 1: Habicht moved, seconded by Alexander, to close the public hearing. Motion carried 7-0. MOTION 2: Habicht moved, seconded by Foote, to recommend to the City Council approval of the request of The Daly Group for PUD Concept Amendment on 9 acres to the overall Hartford PUD, PUD District Review on 9 acres, Zoning District Amendment within the C-Reg-Ser District on 5.7 acres, Site Plan Review on 5.7 acres, and Preliminary Plat of 9 acres into 2 lots and 1 outlot based on plans dated January 9, 1998 and subject to the recommendations of the Staff Report dated January 23, 1998, and it is the finding of the Planning Commission to approve the Borders Bookstore and to deny the restaurant on the finding that the site plan was inconsistent with the 1978 approved plan, that the proposed plan did not mitigate the adverse impacts on the adjoining residential areas, that general retail or office was a more compatible land use, and that all proposed berming and landscaping 8 Planning Commission Minutes January 26, 1998 adjacent to the residential areas on both sites be installed concurrent with the construction of the bookstore. Motion carried 7-0. 9 City Council Members 8080 Mitchell Road Eden Prairie, MN 55344 Dear Council Members: Wednesday, February 11,1998 . I am writing to express my concern about the current construction proposal of Borders Bookstore and the Restaurant. As a resident of Hartford Place I have received numerous letter and calls about meetings and hearings. I have attended all of the neighborhood meetings and the public hearing in front of the City Planning Commission on January 23. I feel as if I have spent the last few months going around in circles regarding this development. I am hoping that this meeting on the 17th will bring a happy closure to all of this. My concerns are twofold, the first being what the proposed use of land is. Living within feet of a restaurant makes me very nervous. The proposed restaurant is one that will have a liquor license and will be the size of Buca, 9000 square feet, which is located on Highway 5. With the restaurant/bar, comes long business hours, excess noise, traffic, and an unwanted smell produced by the establishment. I would like to draw your attention to the Staff Report put out by Mike Franzen on January 23, 1998 there is a section entitled Land Use and Zoning. According to page 2 of the report: " ... AII permitted land uses are required by City Code to minimize the adverse impacts on nearby dwellings. The City must determine if the proposed land uses are compatible with the approved plan and the surrounding area. A full service gas station, for example, would not be compatible because lights, noise, and traffic impacts could not be mitigated since the homes are located close to this site. /I By reading this section of the Staff Report it appears that the proposed development does not meet the above requirements. Some questions that come to mind are, "What happens in the evening when people leave the liquor serving establishment at 1 :00 in the morning? What about evenings when I want to have my window open? Will the patrons be noiSY? Will the lights be shining in my window? Will the odor of the restaurant be one that I smell daily?" Overall, I feel the construction of a restaurant is not the best use of land. Why not a doctor's office, chiropractor, hair salon, or coffee shop? I would support something that brings less noise, less traffic late at night, fewer evening lights in a parking lot, and something that will not produce a smell which I will have to endure. After the issue of the land use is resolved my second concern lies in the landscape that will be done to mitigate the sound, light, and traffic the new development will bring to my home. Whether it be a bookstore, coffee shop, restaurant, or dry cleaner the landscaping should be developed more where I live. would like to draw attention back to the January 23 Staff Report. " ... The City code also requires a transition where there are differences in land use, building mass, height, densities, and site intensity. Transitions may be accomplished by increased setbacks, berming, plantings, lower site densities, lower floor area ratios, and small buildings. II According to the report, the City recognizes the need for a well built up transition area. In order to have a better understanding as to my concerns, I have enclosed a map and have highlighted my home. I have spoken with Mr. Dietrich from RLK a number of times concerning the berm located between Minuteman Alcove and the proposed parking lot. He has admitted to me that the current landscape proposal is weak in that area, but not much has been done to improve it. I have communicated my concerns to him at neighborhood meetings, over the phone, and through letters. Listed below are some solutions to my landscape concerns: 1) build a retaining wall so that the berm can be built up higher 2) build a decorative fence to allow for more privacy, decrease foot traffic, and light 3) place twelve foot conifer trees three feet apart all over the berm 4) add more plant materials The proposed plan shows seventeen parking places located next to the berm. suggested to Mr. Dietrich that those be eliminated so that the residents on the other side of the berm could have a little more privacy. I would also like to see landscaping that will have an immediate effect on mitigating the light, sound, and traffic brought to my home. The current landscape plan would take about fifteen years on up to have a small impact on alleviating unwanted things from the development. I hope that the City Council will take a stand on this issue. I appreciate the opportunity to express my concerns. I hope that the correct decision can be made concerning the land use and the landscaping of this proposed development. I look forward to the meeting on February 17, and as I stated before, hope for a happy closure to all of this. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions or concerns. Sincerely, . a~ c ~ P O1\-C-t~vy Andrea Poncius 8486 Minuteman Alcove Eden Prairie, MN 55344 612-943-4095 enclosure: A map showing the proposed construction and my home. d3 h e: (bRG(§I2!§(h artford-area d I . wg Thu Nov 06 . 16. 10: 00 1997 DAVE PA HEN C 0::: o U. t-e:: « :I: January 21, 1998 Eden Prairie Planning Commission 8080 Mitchell Road Eden Prairie, MN 55347-2230 Attention: Mike Franzen Subject: Proposed Borders/ Bar-Restaurant Development Dear Eden Prairie Planning Commission, 11516 Carriage Court Eden Prairie. MN 55344 I'm writing this letter for your review in advance of the January 26th Planning Commission meeting conceming the proposeq Borders and bar/restaurant development between Preserve Boulevard, Prairie Center Drive and Rolling Hills Drive. I reside in the Northmark Town Home development on Carriage Court, directly adjacent to the proposed restaurantlbar site. I have no reservations to the appropriateness of a Borders bookstore in this neighborhood. However, the proposal to put in a restaurant with a liquor license (a "Champs" type of watering -hole) directly across from my home brings up a red flag. This location, so close to a residential area, is not appropriate for a liquor-serving establishment. It would not be symbiotic to the neighborhood. We are already experiencing a myriad of problems resulting from the rezoning and development of the adjacent site (now the high-density Pulte townhome development). Increased traffic, noise and light pollution are already putting our nerves "to the test." A bar would increase all of these nuisances and further decrease the possibility of getting any sleep. I'm referring to noise at all hours from the parking lot and the proposed outdoor seating. Overly joyful patrons, slamming car doors, garbage dumping and removal, the noise of snow ploughs in the middle of the night, overwhelming cooking odors, lights shining into our bedroom windows; all of these are valid fears of what a bar/restaurant would bring to our neighborhood. Security of our homes is also a concem, as well as the future marketability of our properties. No amount of berming or landscaping could insulate us from these detriments to our quality of life. We feel that there are other types of commercial establishments that may not be as lucrative for the developers, but would be more appropriate to the neighborhood and less threatening to the homeowners. A retailer or business office with normal retail hours would be much more compatible to the area. If the developers are legally entitled to put in any type of commercial establishment here, it would make sense for the city of Eden Prairie to pay them for profits lost by substituting with a more compatible enterprise. Another possibility would be acquiring this small parcel of land (next to the pond) as citY property, extending the wildlife area. Although it may seem too costly, it would alleviate many costs to the city generated by alcohol-serving establishments (increased police calls and need for patrols, damage to city property by drivers (and pedestrians) under the influence, etc). Please give this matter your utmost consideration, imagining how you would react to the operation of a bar/restaurant in your "backyard." It's not a compelling prospect, is it? Respectfully, ~~~ Gretchen Ebert cc: Mayor Jean Harris All members of Planning Commission TO: Michael Franzen & Planning Commission Members FROM: Sharon Ahl RE: Proposed Development of Restaurant with Liquor License DATE: January 21, 1998 In preparation for your Planning Commission meeting on the 26th, I want to clarify my strong objections to the proposed restaurant with bar adjacent to our residential community on Carriage Court. This proposed restaurant with bar, a "Champs-like" establishment would: o Severely damage the quality of our everyday living; o Impact the value of our homes; this simply would be a less desirable place to live. Objections With a restaurant, one operating in the night-time hours, up to 1:00 -2:00 A.M., and with an outdoor seating, we would experience: o Noise, impacting our ability to use our backyards and our ability to sleep. o Lights which would be on for the majority of the night-time hours, also impacting our sleep. o The ongoing smells that a restaurant with a bar would emit. o Increased traffic congestion, especially along Prairie Center Drive, which already is one of the most accident-prone sites in Eden Prairie. Seeing a proposed development on paper and actually experiencing it as a resident are two different things. As residents, we hope that you have or will visit the proposed site from the back of Carriage Court so that you can experience how close, how real the noise, the lights, the smell, and increased traffic will be for us. Can you identify any other residential area in Eden Prairie where a "Champs-like" restaurant is so close to a residential community? I do not believe that trees can adequately soften the noise, the lights, and the smells emanating from this kind of restaurant. . 1 Proposed Options Two other restaurants are being planned for the Cinema Complex. With the additional restaurant/bar proposed for our backyards, that means we would have three restaurants within less than a block. We urge you to consider a more viable kind of development that is more appropriate for being so close to a residential area such as a small medical complex, an office facility, or a small strip mall where the establishments are geared to a day-time schedule. In this area we have a library on one comer and a proposed Border's Bookstore on another comer. Why not target an audience compatible to a library, a bookstore, a cinema complex and a residential community and consider establishments like a Bruegger's Bagel, Caribou Coffee. Starbuck's? Please put yourselves into our shoes. Imagine that someone now wanted to build a restaurant with a bar in your backyard as well. From this perspective, I think you can understand why we have such strong objections to this proposed development of a restaurant with a bar. Submitted by: 2 Robert Persons 11459 Carriage Court, Eden Prairie, MN 55344 612-944-7686 Community Development Department Eden Prairie City Center 8080 Mitchell Road Eden Prairie, MN 55344 Dear Planning Commission Members, 1/21/98 I am writing in regard to the proposed building of a Border's Book Store and a restaurant on Prairie Center Drive and Rolling Hills Road. I live on Carriage Court, which runs adjacent to the South side of the proposed development area. After learning of the development, I spoke with several of my neighbors, and I volunteered to summarize our thoughts and concerns: 1) There is general acceptance of the building of a Border's Book Store. Some people expressed concern that the building not be over one story in height. A higher building might cut off sunlight and view of the sky to the people immediately adjacent to it. There was a general consensus that ideally the new building would be one story, and have a complimentary look to the library just across the street. We would like to have signage kept low. 2) Regarding the possible building of a 9,000 square foot restaurant, there was a universal sense of alarm and concern! Everyone I spoke with objected to the possibility, some people getting quite emotional. The concerns are these: a) Typical restaurant hours (until lAM) would cause noise and traffic at much too late an hour. Since this proposed development is immediately adjacent to low density housing, noise and traffic is a valid concern. b) Lower property values. c) Overflow parking problems. d) Cooking smells. e) Possible encouragement of a field mouse problem in the area. Although the last three problems might have solutions, the late hours of a restaurant could cause on-going friction with local residents. Since this is primarily a "bedroom" neighborhood, people tend to be sleeping by 10PM. One person asked how the members of the planning commission would like a large restaurant (like Rio Bravo) right next door to their house. We felt that it would be much more appropriate to compliment the Border's Book Store with either a small strip mall, or professional office space. We'd like to see businesses whose regular hours are 9AM-S.l ~A, or no later than 10PM. This could ...... dude dentists, chiropractors, insurance agents, travel agents, and many other small professional businesses. I personally own an office condo at 8220 Commonwealth Drive. right across from Rio Bravo. When working late there is considerable traffic and noise well into the evening. especially on weekends. This would be completely disruptive. were it next to residential housing. On one occasion I notice a small group of somewhat inebriated people cross over to our office building and urinate in the bushes. Whatever promises might be made by the restaurant owners, late hours and the serving of any alcohol would be disaster right next to a residential area. We ask that the development of this area take into account those who are already settled into the area. To avoid continuing problems for area residents, we insist that the developer find a better alternative to a large restaurant. Thank. you for your assistance in this matter. I trust that together we can develop the area in a way that works for everyone. Sincerely ~~if~~_ Robert Persons ~t Page - 2 Saturday, January 17,1998 Dear Mr. Franzen: I want to start my thanking you for all of the time and advice you have given me. We spoke many times about the Borders proposal, and you provided me with some reasonable request to make to the contractor. As a resident of the city of Eden Prairie, and one who will be looking at the new development every day, you provided me with practical suggestions that I could make to prevent excessive noise, traffic, and light brought to my home. . I have spoken with John Dietrich a number of times about building up the berm, adding more trees, and removing the row of seventeen parking places that will be near my home. You will find more details in the enclosed letters that I have sent him. I hope that you can pass these letters on to the Eden Prairie Community Development Department so that they know my concerns.

U. Q) ~~ ~ o o -0 ~ John Dietrich 6110 Blue Circle Drive Suite 100 Minnetonka, MN 55343 Dear Mr. Dietrich: Wednesday, January 14, 1998 Thank you very much for taking time to speak with me about the Borders' proposal. appreciated you listening to my concerns. I acknowledge that when I purchased my home that the other side of the berm was going to be used for commercial development. However, I would like the transition between the residential and commercial development to be one that will be appealing to those that will be living near by. I am hoping that the Eden Prairie Community Development Committee can direct the builder/contractor to make changes in the proposed plan to allow for more privacy and decrease the amount of noise and light that Borders and its restaurant will bring to the residents. As I stated on the telephone, I am concerned that the issues I brought up at the neighborhood meeting have not been addressed. The first and the most important being, how you can build the berm up for those residents facing the new development. According to the new plan I have seen no changes. Listed below are the suggestions I made on the phone. First, I would like to see the berm built up higher, at least ten feet, than the current proposal. I understand that this can be done by building a retaining wall. Second, I also believe that a thick distribution of trees and greens (landscaping) placed on the berm would help reduce visibility, noise, and light. From looking at the current plans I have noticed that the proposed trees are six feet high conifers, and are very spread out. I propose that you place at least twelve feet conifers in place of the six feet, and space them closer together with triple rows. I feel strongly that the current plan is very weak in the area of plant materials. I know that this issue of landscaping can be resolved by increasing the size of the tree, adding more layers, and improving the spacing. Another suggestion I had was a decorative fence. Again I proposed this at the neighborhood meeting, but was laughed at by those running it. They felt that it was a rather foolish request. Has this been considered? Another concern I addressed with you was the issue of lighting. Will these lights be on a timed system? If so, at what time should I be looking for them to go off. I am sure that you can understand my concern as the lights will be shinning into my bedroom window in the evening. After our conversation, I had the understanding that you were going to speak with someone about adding more plant materials to the berm. You also mentioned that you would speak with someone about the lighting. As far as the issue of building the berm up and adding a retaining wall, you felt that the cost was too great for the developer. I hope that you can reconsider this. I feel very strongly that something more can be 31 done to build up the berm. I understand that you have a deal to make with the city. However, I hope that you will consider the amount of noise, light, and traffic this development will be bringing to the area, and work to make Borders a place that everyone will enjoy. I look forward to seeing the changes in the plans on Monday, January 26.

I am a concerned Eden Prairie homeowner who is at the most vulnerable area of the proposed development. My home is location next to the burm which abuts the proposed "Borders Bookstore Development" and my from door faces Rolling Hills Road, closest to the proposed entrance on Rolling Hills Road for the "Regal Cinema." I have made my request to RLK in person on November 20th and 21 st and now I am submitting my request to the . Planning Commission and the Eden Prairie City Council. Upon the purchase of my home in September of 1996, I knew there would be a . forthcoming development in the area. My greatest concern for the Hartford Place Development is protecting my homes value upon resale, and prohibiting needless traffic. Listed below are my requests for the Hartford Place Development: Borders Bookstore and Restaurant/Bar Pad 1. The "Bar" pad is not my first choice for the complement building. I have strong objections to the Restaurant/Bar pad. "Bar" this is what I object to so close to a residential area. (Just as a side note. I do smell the odors from the Asian Grill more than a block away, even though this is not considered to be air pollution.) 2. In order to screen the parking facilities from our townhouses, I am requesting the following. A. The bunn between the Hartford Place community and Lot 9 be elevated on the North end to a height of no less than 8 feet above our first floor elevation. 2. Penny Hedqusit Hansun 11043 Lexington Drive Eden Prairie, MN 55344 903-0045 • penny.hanson@mci2000.com Borders Bookstore and Restaurant/Bar Pad -continued B. In order to eliminate the foot traffic between Lot 9 and the Hartford Place community. A 5 foot height chain link fence (with green plastic coating) running form the storm water pond to the Southeast comer of the "Borders Bookstore" and from the Northeast comer of the "Borders Bookstore" to an area approximately 10 feet from the Northeast comer of the "Borders Bookstore" lot. This fence should be as close as practical to the "Borders Bookstore" parking lot. "Regal Cinema" Lot 1 Proposed Development with Restaurants on Lot 2 and Lot 3 1. An earth burm retaining wall should be built along Rolling Hills Road to maintain the same elevation along the South side of the property. This retaining wall should only be lowered at the intersection of Rolling Hills Road and Prairie Center Drive. Thereby removing the driveway from Lot 1 and Lot 2 on to Rolling Hills Road. 2. Install a cyclone fence from the Southwest comer of the theater to within 50 feet of the intersection of Prairie Center Drive. The 5-foot height chain link fence (with green plastic coating) should eliminate foot traffic. Place this fence as close a practicable to the parking lot within at least 5 feet of the curb. 3. Move the South Restaurant as close as possible to the restaurant on the Northwest Comer. Move the driveway going out onto Prairie Center Drive to the South side of the South restaurant. The proposed driveway on to Rolling Hills Road must be eliminated. 4. The traffic onto Rolling Hills Road must be eliminated. The traffic here will tremendously impact the residence in the Hartford Place Community. The following modification by the Planning Commission and City Council will have the theater parking making a right tum onto Prairie Center Drive eliminating the unnecessary traffic on Rolling Hills Road . . Would you please inform me of when the hearing will be on the Hartford Development so I can attend. Thank you for you time. Sincerely, ?~~ Penny Hedqusit Hanson CC: Franzen, Harris, Thorfinnson, Butcher-Younghans, Case, 1'yra-Lukens, and Hartford Community. 2 November 11, 1997 Michael Franzen City Planner City of Eden Prairie 8080 Mitchell Road Eden Prairie, MN 55344-2230 Dear Mr. Franzen,. I am enclosing a copy of the letter I sent to Michael Crosby for your file:>. I have serious reservations concerning LandMark's proposal for a restaurant to be built adjacent to our residential property. Issues involved with my reservations include: o The safety issue, due to increased traffic flow. Many accidents are already occurring along Prairie Center Drive and Preserve Boulevard with the present situation. Traffic is already congested. o The saturation of restaurants, existing and recently built, in this area. How many restaurants can one area support, and why would Eden Prairie approve a project that very likely could not support another restaurant? o The noise and lighting issues so close to residential homes. I would like to know: o What are the city guidelines for number of restaurants in a certain area? o Any research that indicates that Eden Prairie will and can support the building of yet another restaurant. If another restaurant is justified, why isn't the vacant Lund's property a better choice? Thank you. Sincerely, Sharon Ahl Ene.: Letter to Michael Crosby November 11, 1997 Michael Crosby The lAndMark Group, lid. 311 1st Avenue North Suite 302 Minneapolis, MN 55402 Dear Mr. 'Crosby, Before we pinpoint a time to get together, I thought it would make better use of both of our time, if you would supply the following information/action steps prior to our meeting: o An actual staking of the property to demonstrate where you intend to build what. o A three-dimensional drawing of the proposed project so that we can see the whole, including the following elements: Sheltered lighting Parking Plantings within project area and along the buffer zones o An explanation of how you intend to handle the noise issue. I feel that the selection of Border's Bookstore is a good choice for that development area. I have serious reservations about a restaurant, especially in light of the saturation of restaurants in this area, safety in terms of expanded traffic flow, noise, and lighting adjacent to a residential area.

The 18.4 acre Planned Unit Development included 52,400 square feet of Office, 11,600 square feet of Commercial, and 4,000 square feet of Restaurant. This portion of the Planning Unit Development is currently guided and zoned Office. The approved PUD plan was for three -two story buildings, totaling 36,400 square feet. The PUD was amended in 1997 for Albin Chapel, a one story, 9,450 square foot building. PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT AMENDMENT-SITE PLAN The approved PUD is 36,400 square feet With Albin Chapel approved and under construction, leaves 26,950 square feet available for development. River Knoll is a 26,958 two-story building office building at a base area ratio of .129 The Office zoning district permits up to a .30 base area ratio. The floor area ratio is .245. The City Code permits up to a .50 floor area ratio. A total of 134 parking spaces are required. The site plan shows 134 spaces. The building meets the required 35 foot setback from Shady Oak Road and Rowland Road. Parking meets the required 35 foot setback from Shady Oak Road and 17.5 foot setback from Rowland Road. LANDSCAPING The landscaping requirement is based upon a caliper inch requirement according to building square footage, tree replacement from the approved PUD, and screening of parking areas. The caliper inch requirement is 85 inches. The tree replacement requirement is 110 inches. GRADING AND EXISTING TREES This site was previously graded as part of the original grading plan approved with the Planned Unit Development. There will be a slight modification to the approved grading plan to accommodate the site plan as proposed, but it will not affect the existing significant trees that are located on the knoll on the north end of the building. Staff Report River Knoll January 23, 1998 UTILITIES Sewer and water service is available in Rowland Road. A NURP pond is shown on the site plan. ARCHITECTURE The proposed building meets the 75% face brick and glass requirement of the Office Zoning District. LIGHTING Any proposed lighting on the property must be a down-cast shoebox design with a maximum height of20 feet. SIGNS The proposed monument sign is 48 square feet. The City code will allow a 50 square foot 8 foot high monument sign provided it meets a 20 foot setback requirement from both Shady Oak Road and Rowland Road. Since the proposed sign is located near an intersection, it is important that the monument sign not block sight vision distance at the comer. STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS The staff would recommend approval of the PUD Concept Review on 2.49 acres, PUD District Review on 2.49 acres, Zoning District Amendment on 2.49 acres, and Site Plan Review on 2.49 acres, based on plans dated January 23, 1997 and subject to the recommendations of the Staff Report dated January 23, 1997, and subject to the following conditions: 1.

Enter into a cross-access and maintenance agreement for use of the common driveway between this site and the proposed site to the~ Planning Commission Minutes January 26, 1998 C. RIYER KNOLL OFFICE BUILDING by River Knoll, L.L.C. Request for Planned Unit Development Concept Amendment on 2.49 acres, Planned Unit Development District Review on 2.49 acres, Zoning District Amendment in the Office Zoning District on 2.49 acres and Site Plan review on 2.49 acres. Location: Rowland Road and Shady Oak Road. Dan Klecker, Opus Properties, reviewed the site plan and presented building elevations. The building will be a two-story office building with underground parking. The owner owns 75 percent of the building and it will be occupied by two different owners. Exterior parking shows 106 parking stalls and underground with 28 for a total of 134 parking stalls. He reviewed the landscaping plan noting the caliper inch requirement is for 85 inches and the tree replacement requirement is for 110 inches. Franzen said staff recommended approval according to the recommendations in the staff report. Ismail asked whether a neighborhood meeting was conducted with some of the neighbors on the southwest. Klecker said not with the neighbors, just with City staff. The public hearing was opened. Charles Hersch, 6596 Cherokee Trail West, commented it's a beautiful building but there is only one entrance and exit and this causes major traffic problems. It is impossible to have any kind of traffic flow. There are 50 children that live on Cherokee Trail and he was concerned about their safety. He moved to Eden Prairie to get away from city noise and pollution, and to have a safer place for his family. He was very concerned about the congestion on Shady Oak Road. Corrine Lynch, 6565 Cherokee Trail West, commented she looks down directly on this new complex being built so this is the view she will see out her kitchen and family room. She expressed concern about the traffic and the aesthetics of the building. She said there is no buffer across the street and it goes from this office commercial area to residential. She also noted there does not seem to be any landscaping around the pond that she looks right into. Hersch commented he would like the retaining wall to be as attractive as possible because his property is right above the NURP pond there. He was 15 q Planning Commission Minutes January 26, 1998 also very concerned about the traffic patterns. Klecker noted by ordinance they show 134 cars but they only need a third of the parking. Habicht asked what the City has planned for Shady Oak Road. Franzen said it's 100 feet of right of way across the entire length of this property. It gives them enough room to put in four lanes and it's part of the City's transportation plan that was approved last year. It gives them enough room at the intersection if a signal is warranted at Rowland Road and still have the four lanes of traffic going on Shady Oak Road. Sandstad supported 50 percent proof of parking and some nice greenery to be selected by the neighbors. Franzen explained how the City determines whether proof of parking is necessary. Hersch said he would like to see all the pieces of the puzzle put together because he's didn't think the impacts are really registering. He didn't understand how the City could make Shady Oak Road into a four lane highway and asked if some of the traffic could exit out on Shady Oak Road. Franzen said the pavement is with two lanes and the County owns beyond that. He said you can't exit on Shady Oak Road because the County will not allow it.
