(Parcels 1 through 4 are Torrens Property, Certificate of Title No. 1047852) (Parcel 5 is Abstract Property) Tract C; Outlot A, Opus H 2nd Addition, Hennepin County, Minnesota. (Torrens Property, Certificate of Title No. 1058489) Tract D: The West 8 rods of the East 32 rods of the North 12 rods of the Northeast Quarter of the Northwest Quarter, except those parts taken for road and highway purposes, Section 1, Township 116, Range 22, Hennepin County, Minnesota. (Abstract Property) Attachment A— Conditions of Approval (Wetlands & Water Quality) September 15, 2011 The following is a summary of incomplete items based on review of plans prepared by Westwood Professional Services, dated received September 12, 2011. Prior to Second Reading, the Proponent Shall: • Provide a Final Wetland Replacement Application and Plan that has been approved by the Nine Mile Creek Watershed District. This would include an Avoidance and Minimization Plan and Technical Evaluation Panel (TEP) review for the proposed increase in wetland fill. The Plan must meet Watershed District standards. Written confirmation from the Watershed District that they have approved the amount of wetland fill proposed for the site is required, • Provide geotechnical and groundwater mounding analyses that confirm that the wetlands and proposed wetland replacement areas are sustainable and will not be drained or adversely impacted by the construction activities. • Provide a water budget analysis that confirms that the wetlands and proposed wetland replacement areas will not be adversely affected by the construction and proposed stormwater management system. The analysis should compare existing and proposed conditions for dry, average and wet years. • Revise the plans to incorporate natural retention and infiltration of precipitation on-site and attenuate flow by the use of options such as re-use of stormwater through irrigation; incorporation of open vegetated swales or natural depressions; green roofs; or green wall systems. All stormwater structures, including pipe galleries and pipes, should be placed outside of the building footprints to the fullest extent possible. Irrigation used to meet the on- site retention must consider the type of soils onsite, be sized to allow for natural infiltration onsite and should be timed to allow irrigation to occur in accordance with City Code requirements. The stormwater Management Plan must be provided to the Watershed District for review and approval. • Provide access plans for the infiltration systems proposed under the parking decks for maintenance and/or emergency repairs. • Provide detailed plans for the protection walls based on the findings and conclusions of the hydrologic analysis and modeling to ensure construction would not result in inadvertent drainage or impacts to the wetlands and proposed wetland replacement areas. Prior to Final Plat issuance the proponent shalt: • Provide a Wetland Plan and Wetland Surety in an amount equal to 150% of the cost of the Wetland Plan. The Wetland Plan must include: — Long-term monitoring plan for wetland and wetland mitigation hydrology after completion of all phases of construction. The monitoring plan must be approved by the Watershed District, but the City would recommend a minimum of 5 years after completion of all development phases. — Functional analysis of pre- and post-construction conditions for on-site mitigation and existing wetlands to determine whether the wetland functions will be maintained at equal or greater levels than those proposed. Steps that will be taken to maintain or improve the proposed or existing functions and values must be included in the Wetland Plan. • Provide a copy of the Wetland Permit received from the Watershed District. • Provide conservation easements over all wetlands, wetland replacement areas, and wetland buffers and a Declaration of Covenants and Restrictions over all wetland mitigation areas. • Provide a Stormwater Retention and Infiltration Plan that meets Watershed District Standards. • Provide a minimum of two (2) feet between the High Water Level (HWL) for all infiltration BMPs, stormwater ponds and wetlands and the lowest floor elevation of all structures. This would include the pipe galleries under the parking decks. ■ Provide for water level fluctuations of no more than five (5) inches to the Normal Water Elevation (NWL) and/or Ordinary High Water Level (OHWL) • Check the accuracy of the modeling performed for the project. Prior to Land Alteration permit issuance the proponent shall: • Provide a signed and approved copy of the land alteration 1 grading permit issued by the Watershed District. • Provide a maintenance agreement for all areas receiving public stormwater drainage that are located under private structures such as the parking decks. • Install erosion control at the grading limits of the property for review and approval by the City and Watershed District. Attachment B—UHG Planned Unit Development (PUD) Waivers September 15, 2011 • Building setback from 35 feet to 34 feet. Minimum front yard setback of 35 feet required; Parking Ramp A front yard setback 30 feet from proposed Shady Oak Road right-of-way line at southwest corner of ramp. Justification: The front yard setback for Ramp A adjacent to Shady Oak Road is variable along the Shady Oak Road Street frontage with a 50-foot setback at the mid-point and an 80-foot setback at the northwest corner. The average setback is in excess of the minimum for this street frontage. • Building height from 30 feet to 139 feet (bldg 1), 148 feet(bldg 2),243 feet (bldg 3), and 178 feet(bldg 4). Justification: The proposed maximum height for these structures is proportional to the available site area and planned distances from perimeter site boundaries. Additional building height in this location is offset by adjacent natural features and contributes to the preservation of sensitive natural systems by reducing the disturbance area and development footprint on the subject property. • Parking deck height from 15 feet to 72 (deck A),64(deck B),and 82 {deck Q feet. Justification: The proposed maximum height for these structures is proportional to the available site area and planned distances from perimeter site boundaries. Additional building height in this location is offset by adjacent natural features and contributes to the preservation of sensitive natural systems by reducing the disturbance area and development footprint on the subject property. ■ Floor Area Ratio from.50 to.64 Justification: The increased density on Lot 1 allows for the creation of an open space preservation area that preserves a significant landform and tree resource. The overall proposed floor area ratio including the preservation land conforms to the maximum allowable floor area. ■ Minimum parking dimension from 9' x 19' to 8.5' x 18', and drive aisle from 25 feet to 24 feet. Justification: Reduced parking stall and aisle dimensions contribute to efficiency in the proposed parking ramps that translates to reduced site coverage. Ramp parking for this project represents low-turnover parking that can be safely utilized given the low frequency of users entering and exiting the facilities during the times it is in use. The proposed parking dimensions requested with this waiver are consistent with other parking ramp designs for low-turnover parking in Eden Prairie. • Landscaping requirements caliper inch from 4,537 to 3,667. Justification: Insufficient suitable site area is available for the planting of a sufficient quantity of trees to meet the minimum requirement. The unmet landscaping requirements can be used for enhancements related to light rail including trails, plazas, architecture, and landscaping. : S igns A) From one freestanding sign per street frontage to two on West 62 Street. B) Freestanding sign size from 50 square feet to 104 square feet. Q Sign height from 8 to 10.5 feet. D) Wall sign size from 50 to 200 square feet. Justification: The proposed freestanding signage is based on consolidation and transfer of freestanding signage area that would be allowed per street frontage. The project site includes street frontage for Shady Oak Road, for City West Parkway, for West 62nd Street, for Highway 62, and for Highway 212; a total of five street frontages. Based on five frontages the ordinance would allow one 50 square-foot sign and four 36 square-foot signs; a total of 194 square feet of free-standing sign area. The PUD sign proposal would not exceed the 194 square-foot limit determined under the ordinance provisions Additional sign height is warranted for the area identification sign to be able to maintain workable sign proportions and to compensate for slope conditions along Shady Oak Road. The ordinance allows 50 square feet of wall signage per street frontage; for this project with streets surrounding the project area up to four signs totaling 200 square feet would be allowed for each building. • Wetland Buffer Setbacks A) A reduction to no (0) feet between Wetland 1-22-D and the structure setback for Parking Ramp B. B) A reduction to 17 feet between the structure setback for Building 2 and Wetland 1-22-A. C) A reduction to 17 feet for two points between the structure setback for Building 3 and Wetland 1-22-A. D) A reduction to 17 feet between the structure setback for the northwest corner of Building 4 and Wetland 1-22-A. E) A reduction to no (0) feet between the northeast corner of Wetland 1-22-A and West 62nd Street. F) A reduction to no (0) feet between the Wetland 1-21-A and West 62"d Street. G) A reduction to no (0) feet between Wetland 1-22-C and the retaining wall along West 52°a Street. Justification: The wetlands were all classified as moderate quality and as such require a minimum wetland buffer of 20 feet with an average wetland buffer of 40 feet. This corresponds with Nine Mile Creek Watershed District standards. The average wetland buffer requirement is met for all wetlands,however site constraints and the requirement that wetland cannot be filled to create wetland buffer result in areas with less than the minimum. Waivers from the 20-foot minimum wetland buffers would also be required from the Watershed District. Wetland Structure Setbacks from the required wetland buffer strip Structure setback impacts of more than 10%of the surface area and structure setback reduced from 15 feet as follows: A) A reduction to 5 feet in addition to no(0)wetland buffer strip for Parking Ramp B along the north half of Wetland-1-22-D B) A reduction to 10 feet in addition to a 20-foot minimum wetland buffer strip for the Parking Ramp C along the east side of Wetland 1-21-C and the north side of Wetland 1-21-B. C) A reduction to 5 feet in addition to a 17-foot minimum wetland buffer strip for the northeast corner of the ground floor level of Building 2 at points adjoining Wetland 1-22-A. D) A reduction to 10 feet in addition to a 20-foot minimum wetland buffer strip for the north side of the ground floor level of Building 2 at points adjoining Wetland 1-22-C. E) A reduction to 5 feet in addition to a 17-foot minimum wetland buffer strip for the ground floor level of Building 3 at points adjoining Wetland 1-22-A. F) A reduction to 5 feet in addition to a 20-foot minimum wetland buffer strip for the southeast corner of the ground floor level of Building 3 at points adjoining Wetland 1-22-B. G) A reduction to 5 feet in addition to a 17-foot minimum wetland buffer strip for the northwest corner of the ground floor level of Building 4 at points adjoining Wetland 1-22-A. H) A reduction to 10 feet in addition to a 20 foot minimum wetland buffer strip for the west side of the ground floor level of Building 4 and Wetland 1-22-A. I} A reduction to 10 feet in addition to a 20 foot minimum wetland buffer strip for the south side of the ground floor level of Building 4 and Wetland 1-21-C. J) A reduction to 10 feet for the courtyard for BuiIding 4 and Wetland 1-21-A. K) A reduction to no structure setback in addition to a 20-Moot minimum wetland buffer strip for retaining walls adjacent to Wetlands-1-22-C and-1-22-E. L) A reduction to 10 feet in addition to a 20-foot minimum wetland buffer strip between Wetland 1-22-A and the paved trail that runs between Pond 1-22-K and Wetland 1-22-A. M) A reduction to 10 feet in addition to a 20-foot minimum wetland buffer strip for paved trails adjoining Wetland 1-21-B. 1) A reduction to no(0) feet between West 62i° Street and the wetland buffers for Wetlands 1-22-C, 1-22-A and 1-21-A. Justification: The requests for reduced structure setbacks allow adequate access for mowing or building maintenance with minimal impact on the ability of the wetland buffer strips to provide sufficient area for protecting wetlands from pollutants and for providing for wildlife corridors near wetlands. The plans provide the required average wetland buffer strip of 40 feet for all wetlands which will help maintain the integrity of the wetlands and ecological corridors.
