City Code requires a 30-foot setback for lot lines that abut a public right-
of-way.
PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES
November 19, 2018
Page 2
Klima presented the staff report. The application was for an existing deck
constructed with the home in the early 1980s, though it was not depicted on the
survey. The deck had become a structural hazard, and the owners wished to
reconfigure the deck and extend it 10 feet, which would not bring it closer to the
setback line than the existing deck. Because the existing deck did not meet the 30-
foot setback requirement for lot lines that abut a public right-of-way, this variance
was brought before the commission. Staff recommended approval of the variance.
Tyler and Katie Bishoff presented a PowerPoint with images of the property and a
survey, and detailed the difficulty of being in compliance due to the property
having three frontages that required the 30-foot setback. The deck was rotting in
sections and requires replacement. The Bishoffs had retained a licensed contractor
to reconfigure the deck, update it and bring it up to code, specifically the deck’s
attachment to the house and the poles. The PowerPoint showed how the new deck
would extend along the back of the house and not toward the street.
DeSanctis asked what the eastern structure was. Bishoff replied it was a shed that
was on site when they moved in. It did not have a cement foundation.
MOTION: Weber moved, seconded by Kirk to close the public hearing.
MOTION CARRIED 6-0.
MOTION: Mette moved, seconded by Villareal to approve Variance #2018-05

STAFF REPORT
TO: Planning Commission
FROM: Steve Durham, Planner II
DATE: December 5, 2018
SUBJECT: Xcel Energy Field Area Network (FAN) Monopole/Antenna
LOCATION: 12580 Technology Drive, Eden Prairie, MN
REQUEST: Site Plan Review on 12.16 acres
Variance to permit a monopole tower at 165 feet. City Code
maximum is 150’
BACKGROUND
The Comprehensive Guide Plan designation for this property is Industrial. The property is zoned
Industrial (I-2.) Xcel Energy is requesting a site plan review on 12.61 acres to construct a 165 feet
monopole. The monopole will support the placement of a wireless antenna. There will be ground
equipment associated with the antenna at the base of the tower. City Code requires towers over 80
feet in height to be reviewed through Planning Commission and City Council for site plan approval.
The FAN project is a wireless communication system that will connect Xcel Energy’s control center
with intelligent, integrated devices that enable remote monitoring and control of the electric grid. The
wireless equipment will interact only with Xcel control centers. The Eden Prairie Substation
currently houses several towers ranging from 110 feet to 165 feet. A new monopole is requested, as it
is impractical to remove the high voltage power lines to accommodate the FAN antenna on the
existing 165’ tower. A height of 165’ is required to accomplish the goals of the FAN program.
SITE PLAN
The site plan identifies the location of a165 feet monopole on the NE section of the lot. The new
tower will be located within the matrix of existing Xcel towers supporting electric lines as well as
ground equipment related to electric use. The tower meets the underlying zoning district setbacks for
front and side yard setbacks.
TREE LOSS AND GRADING
No tree loss or grading is expected.
LANDSCAPE PLAN
There are no additional landscape requirements, tree replacement or screening required with the
proposed development since the project is being incorporated into an existing substation.

LIGHTING
No tower lighting is required per Federal Aviation Administration.
VARIANCE REVIEW – Variance Request #2018-06
“Practical difficulties” is a legal standard set forth in law that cities must apply when considering
applications for variances. It is a three-factor test and applies to all requests for variances. To
constitute practical difficulties, all three factors of the test must be satisfied. The three practical
difficulties include reasonableness; uniqueness; and essential character of the neighborhood is
maintained.
Reasonable use of the property - The first factor is the property owner proposes to use the
property in a reasonable manner. This factor means that the landowner would like to use the
property in a particular reasonable way, but cannot do so under the rules of the ordinance. The
landowner proposes to use the property in a manner consistent with the existing land use. The
proposed use is consistent with the underlying Comprehensive Guide Plan and underlying
zoning. The option to use the existing 165’ is not reasonable, as it requires removal of high
voltage power lines and power interruption. Future maintenance of the antenna will not interrupt
power service. Therefore, a new tower within the existing matrix of tower is a reasonable use.
Unique circumstances - The second factor is that the landowner’s problem is due to
circumstances unique to the property not caused by the landowner. In this variance request the
unique circumstance is the City Code has a maximum tower height of 150 feet.
Essential character of neighborhood - The third factor is that the variance, if granted, will not
alter the essential character of the locality. Under this factor, consider whether the resulting
structure will be out of scale, out of place, or otherwise inconsistent with the surrounding area.
The proposed tower is consistent with the existing towers on the property and will not be out of
place with the existing neighborhood.
STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS
Recommend approval of the following request:
1. Site Plan Review on 12.61 acres associated with Land Development
Application File #2018-24, and subject to approval of Variance Request

EXHIBIT A – FINDINGS AND CONDITIONS VARIANCE #2018-06
FINDINGS
“Practical difficulties” is a legal standard set forth in law that cities must apply when considering
applications for variances. It is a three-factor test and applies to all requests for variances. To constitute
practical difficulties, all three factors of the test must be satisfied. The three practical difficulties include
reasonableness, uniqueness, and maintained essential character of the neighborhood. Additionally the
variance demonstrates harmony with other land use controls.
1. Reasonable use of the property - The first factor is the property owner proposes to use the
property in a reasonable manner. This factor means that the landowner would like to use the
property in a particular reasonable way, but cannot do so under the rules of the ordinance. The
landowner proposes to use the property in a manner consistent with the existing land use. The
proposed use is consistent with the underlying Comprehensive Guide Plan and underlying zoning.
The option to use the existing 165’ is not reasonable, as it requires removal of high voltage power
lines and power interruption. Future maintenance of the antenna will not interrupt power service.
Therefore, a new tower within the existing matrix of tower is a reasonable use.
2. Unique circumstances - The second factor is that the landowner’s problem is due to circumstances
unique to the property not caused by the landowner. In this variance request the unique
circumstance is the City Code has a maximum tower height of 150 feet.
3. Essential character of neighborhood - The third factor is that the variance, if granted, will not alter
the essential character of the locality. Under this factor, consider whether the resulting structure
will be out of scale, out of place, or otherwise inconsistent with the surrounding area. The
proposed tower is consistent with the existing towers on the property and will not be out of place
with the existing neighborhood.
4. Harmony with other land use controls - The granting of the variance is in harmony with intent
and general purposes of the ordinance and the nature of the variance requested are consistent
with the comprehensive guide plan.
CONDITIONS:
• Subject to the information provided in the staff report dated December 5, 2018.
• Subject to plans stamped “Received City of Eden Prairie dated October 26,
2018.”
• Subject to approval of the Site Plan Review on 12.61 acres associated with Land
Development Application File #2018-24 at the Planning Commission and City
Council.

RE: 2019 Planning Commission Work Plan
BACKGROUND
Please find attached a draft copy of the proposed 2019 Planning Commission Work Plan.
Historically, the Planning Commission meetings have been largely reflective of the project or
land use development applications that have been submitted to the City for review. Due to
upcoming significant planning efforts, such as the implementation of the Aspire Comprehensive
Plan update, planning staff is suggesting that the Commission identify issues that will provide
further education and support for the Commission as these initiatives continue to advance.
It is staff’s intention to schedule these items for review as time permits when agendas may be
light with development applications. The topics identified are recommendations based on
feedback received from Planning Commission members and potential areas of interest.
The work plan is intended to serve as a general guide for Commission discussion. The
Commission may wish to revise the work plan to reflect additional or modified topic areas.
