RESOLUTION #83-179
A RESOLUTION DENYING THE REQUEST FOR PETITION
FOR ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT WORKSHEET FOR
CITY WEST BUSINESS CENTER PROPOSAL BY RYAN CONSTRUCTION
WHEREAS, a petition prepared pursuant to 6 MCAR Section 3.0261 , requesting
the preparation of an Environmental Assessment Worksheet (EAW) for the proposed City
West Business Center by Ryan Construction, located northeast of Shady Oak Road and
west of I-494, has been received by the Environmental Quality Board (EQB) and
forwarded to the Eden Prairie City Council from the residents surrounding the
proposed development; and,
WHEREAS, an Environmental Assessment Worksheet was prepared previously for
the property on November 19, 1981 ; and,
WHEREAS, the City of Eden Prairie approved a Negative Declaration for said
Environmental Assessment Worksheet by Resolution #81-227; and,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF EDEN
PRAIRIE THAT IT FINDS AS FOLLOWS:
That the proposal of Ryan Construction for City West Business Center does
not present a sufficiently substantial change from the development plan for the area
in effect on November 19, 1981 to constitute a "project for which environmental
review has not been initiated . . . " within the meaning of 6 MCAR Section 3.021 ; and,
Even if the proposal of Ryan Construction for City West Business Center is a
"project for which environmental review has not been initiated. . . " within the
meaning of 6 MCAR Section 3.021 , the proposal does not have the potential for
significant environmental impact to the property for the following reasons :
Compared to the development proposal in effect on November 19, 1981 ,
the proposed City West Business Center by Ryan Construction will :
a. Require less sewer capacity.
b. Require less water capacity.
C. Result in similar amounts of impervious cover.
d. Result in similar amounts of grading.
e. Generate less traffic.
Based upon the foregoing, the petition is hereby denied.
ADOPTED by the City Council on July 19 1983.
