TRAIKINISPORTATION The proposed expansion to 2,500 people on the expanded Gelco site will t3anerate around 2,000 ADT which will adversely affect the traffic flow on West 78th Street. Top priority should be given by the City to the completion of Schooner Boulevard and its on-off ramps to and from I494. Several transit options exist for Eden Prairie as outlined in the "Transit Potentials Interim Report". .Eden Prairie Center is expected to be center of activity in the area and seems to be the logical location for several transit alternatives. These include Coordinated Transfer Service, Park-N-Ride, Service & Car and Van Pooling.

MINNESM '�'I The Leonard Parker Associates ZONING The site being considered for .Gelco's expansion is currently znnad _ ' Tndlls- tri al Park. It is part of the major center area as def i rwd in the :cti Prairie Guide Plan Update. The request for rezoning would be fot- offices which is consistent with the M.C.A. land use of highway commercial or regional office. Eden Prairie zoning ordinance for offices requires the following- Minimum lot size - 20,000 sf Minimum lot width - 100 ft. - Minimum lot depth - 100 ft. - Maximum height of main structure - 30 ft. Maximum floor area ratio - 0.3 for 1 story and 0.5 for multi-story Off street parking required at 5 cars/1000 sf of GFA Variance from the above zoning ordinance constraints can be requested in a planned unit development proposal . The PUD provision of -this ordinance is to allow variations from the provisions of this ordinance including setbacks, height, lot area, width and depth, yards, etc, in order to: • _ Encourage more creative design and development of land. Promote variety in the physical development pattern. Concentrate open space in more usable areas or to preserve unique natural resources of the site. Preserve and provide a more desirable environment than would be possible under strict interpretation of the zoning ordinance or subdivision regulations. The original Gelco building was the result of a PUD approved by the City in 1973, This PUD was amended when Gelco purchased the 6.4 acres immediately to the west of the original site. It would follow that the additional purchase of 17.89 acres again immediately to the west would be considered as an amend- ment also to the original PUD. 5.1 Concept Development Flan �~ - 4 �RM+/ � . �'zat {rl•if -r HC �I 1 %l t- lal Pf��� RM.� _ 7 r.-1 R �+ci _ I I C ` I P � RM Id n,._.�ri�_ :�: i�.::�•��G-�✓R• :=�� P 'RM � i ,•;i"` r O ` 1 , _ ,�,,.�. _s IQ Q ..t-..-it P t 1 RM`i3i, > �] , C Id RAId P ;�.m •ARM ` P/I'Cid�_:,� , Id C CS �} RM.td.0 ` R �'' t n Id Id ® C r IRkTty � �rl* Id .rr.'_ Id CP• C .'C _ C C = Cid 5. t E �/ r �<c�'� C , P RH !

The purposes of our work were to determine the general soil and ground stater conditions at the site , and to prepare a report including comments. about foundation conditions for future building, any potential soil problems , etc. w PROCEDURE A total of eight (8) soil test holes were drilled at the site on May 5 and 6 , 1976 . The field work .was performed using a truck-mounted CME-45B drill unit. The test holes were advanced using 34" i.d. x 7" o.d. continuous flight, hollow stem auger which acts as a temporary casing to prevent collapse of the sides of the hole. Standard penetration tests were performed in Advance of the casing tip at 2 to 5 foot intervals of depth, fully in accordance with procedures designated in A.S.T.M. D-1586 Observations for ground water levels in the borings were made after completion. SUBTERRANEAN _ ENGINEERING INC. MI NNE APOLI; N'f1NN 2 All soil samples obtained were brought to our laboratory for examination and classification. They will be retained for a period of. at least 90 days from date of issue of this report, after which .they will be discarded unless we are otherwise notified. Drawing No . 1 is a site plan showing the soil test hole locations . Detailed soil descriptions together with a plot of the standard penetration test hlows per foot are given on the Borehole Log sheets , Drawings No . 2 and 3 . Following the regular written soil descriptions are capital letters in parentheses , which represent the appropriate group symbols of the Unified Soil Classification System. A chart explaining this system is appende . All elevations in this report are to geodetic datum, and were obtained using the bench mark noted on the site plan. SITE AND GEOLOGY The property under study abuts on the north side of Anderson Lake. It has a decided slope from the north to the lake margin at the south, with approximately a 40 to 45 foot differenc in elevation across a distance of approximately 1000 feet. The site surface is also irregular , and there is a small mound or ridge within the central to south-central portion of the property SUBTERRANEAN- ENGINEERING INC. Kxx MINNEAPOLIS. MINN. 3 a The natural soils at this site are all related to an early stage of the Des Moines ice lobe of the Wisconsin glaciation These soils tend to be variable in composition, both laterally and vertically. They include a clayey glacial till material containing random lenses or stringers of sand , and strata of silty sand and clayey sand. However the clayey glacial till material is the most predominant. In post-glacial times some silty organic soils have formed at the surface. The inorganic glacial soils have been well consolidated in the past, first by a glacial ice re-advance, and second by desiccation as the ground water table in the area lowered to its present level . According to information published by the State of Minnesota Geological Survey, -the uppermost bedrock stratum under the site is believed to be St.- Peter sandstone , and probably occurs at a depth of at least 50 to 70 feet below present ground surface. SOIL CONDITIONS .Topsoil The site is covered by a 6 inch to 311 foot layer of topsoil . This material is a black to brownish-black organic silt with traces of fine sand. The topsoil is moist and loose, and is unsuitable for foundation or floor slab support . ffir' " SUBTERRANEAN ENGINEERING INC. MINNI?A1"01,1S. MINTY 4 Silt and Silty Fine Sand In the vicinity of our test hole 6 the topsoil is underlain by a 3. foot thick stratum of fine grained silt and sand material which is moist and loose. We believe that this is a former lakeshore deposit. Des Moines Glacial Soils The major soil types at this site occur directly below the topsoil and 'silt at depths of !I to 3; feet .below grade. These soils extend well beyond the terminal depths of the borings . The principal soil type is a sandy clay with traces of gravel and some random sand lenses . This material has very low plasticity and is stiff to very tough in consistency. 1L. has moderate load-bearing capacity and low compressibility, and is thus suitable for foundation support. .Included with the sandy clay deposits are strata of silty sand of varying gradation. These soils are loose to medium dense. They would perform well under a structure , if they are confined by a surcharge of fill or natural sandy clay. a)�­A SU 3TE1;,I�A.NEA N ENGINEERING INC. MINNEAPOI.IS. MINN r t• t •� � 7 r s 19 . GELCO SITE � anderso i co wow M GELCO CORP EDEN PRAIRIE. MINNESOTA 'I1 5 GROUND WATER CONDITIONS Free ground water was observed in 6 of the 8 borings . Final static water levels were at depths of 2 .5 to 13 .0 feet below ground surface. When this information is plotted on a site plan it indicates that there is a definite ground water gradient throug Parcel A from the north end down toward the sanitary sewer line at the south end, with the ground water elevations ranging between 851. 6 to the north to lower than 836 .0 feet adjacent to the sewer line . There is also a gradient from the existing Gelco Building immediately adjacent to the east, down toward the south-west. The permanent ground water table at this site is of course directly related to the prevailing water level in Anderson Lake , at elevation 835. 3 to 835 . 8 feet. The other grour_, water levels observed above the lake elevation represent a perched and transient ground water condition, resulting from surface drainage water at the roadway system north of the property, which is finding -its way toward the lake through pervious sand seams within the soil . DEVELOPMENT PLANS Definite development plans for this site have nit yet been formulated. It is likely that the first use' of the property will be as a paved parking lot to handle overflow pf;xking from the neighboring Gelco Building. At some future time it is likely n that an office building will be erected. SUBTER,R•ANEAi T ENGINEERING INC. • x ,� MINNEAPOLIS. NIT IN J • t. ANALYSIS AND REC0 IENDATIONS The soil conditions are generally quite favorable for foundation support . A building at this property may be supported upon conventional spread footing foundations based directly on the natural soils . The actual allowable soil bearing pressures and footing elevations will have to be established at a later date , when building plans become available, since they are- dependent upon column spacing, type and height of structure, .- and other similar factors . 4 ` The practical significance of the perched ground water condition is that any excavation at this property deeper than K approximately 8 feet is likely to encounter some seepage from the uphill side. However the quantity of such .seepage not anticipated to be great , and it could be readily .handled by gravity drainage to lower land downhill . The uphill basement wall would have to be very thoroughly waterproofed, and consideration would also have to be given to installation of an exterior tile drain system at that wall , in order to avoid any potential dampness problems at the north end of the basement . With regard to the installation of a paved parking lot at this property, it is recommended that all of the black organic topsoil should be stripped and removed prior to any pavement construction. The topsoil is somewhat thicker than usual at . �; SUBTERRANEAN j ENGINEERING INC. x , n K MINNEAPOLIS, MINN. '1 this property, and a 2 foot average thickness may be used for C earthwork estimating purposes only. The pavement design should be as follows : 2" hot-mix bituminous wearing surface , Minnesota Highway Department 2341 or 2351 mix. 61 1. compacted, granular base course , M.H.D. Class 5 material . GENERAL The soil conditions have been established at. our test hole locations only. There may be variations in conditions betweei and around the borings , and linear interpolation or extrapolation of the results is not warranted. For future building construction at this site it would be advisable to make some supplementary soil borings at the specific building location. , l •t SUBTERRANEAN ENGINEERING INC. MINNEAPOLIS, MINN. During construction operations on this property all earthwork, fill placement and compaction, installation of sub- drainage systems , should be. inspected and tested by a qualified - - soil engineer. We would be pleased to provide the field inspectio services . The recommendations and opinions stated in this• report are necessarily of a general nature . We should be' consulted further as planning for construction at this site progresses , in order that we may have the opportunity of reviewing the soil recommendations as they relate to a specific plan. - Submitted May 11 , 1976 SUBTERRANEAN ENGINEERING INC.
