PLANNING COMMISSION AGENDA REPORT
MEETING DATE: FEBRUARY 8, 2018
AGENDA #: 4A
PREPARED BY: JEFF MATZKE, PLANNER
PRESENTED BY: JEFF MATZKE
AGENDA ITEM: CONSIDER THE HAVEN RIDGE SOUTH PRELIMINARY PLAT AND
PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT PLAN
DISCUSSION: Introduction
Winkler Land Company LLC, the property owner, has applied for approval
of a Preliminary Plat and Preliminary Planned Unit Development (PUD)
Plan known as Haven Ridge South, to be developed as a 32-lot, low den-
sity residential subdivision. The subject site is located north of County
Highway 42 and east of County Highway 18.
History
M/I Homes is currently constructing the Haven Ridge residential develop-
ment, a 133-lot PUD to the north of this project (approved in 2017). The
Winkler Land Company has tentatively reached an agreement to sell the
Haven Ridge South PUD, 32-lot subdivision, to M/I Homes as a future
phase of the same villa style housing type as are constructed in Haven
Ridge.
(This public hearing, originally scheduled for January 22, 2018, was can-
celled due to inclement weather and rescheduled to February 8, 2018.)
Current Circumstances
The current proposal calls for a 32-lot single family subdivision and PUD
on the site with a mix of housing product types and lot sizes. The area
encompasses land with wooded and open areas, a large natural gas util-
ity easement, and one wetland.
The following paragraphs outline the physical characteristics of the exist-
ing site, the Comprehensive Plan and zoning designations, and a descrip-
tion of some of the specifics of the site.
PHYSICAL SITE CHARACTERISTICS:
Total Site Area: The total development site area consists of approxi-
mately 11 acres.
Topography: This area has varied topography, with elevations ranging
from the 980’ MSL along the wetland to 1020’ MSL along the eastern
border.
2
Wetlands: One wetland exist on the proposed site. No impacts are
proposed to the wetland area.
Access: The main access to the site is currently from a single driveway
at County Hwy 18.
2030 Comprehensive Plan Designation: This property is designated
for Low Density Residential uses on the 2030 Comprehensive Plan Land
Use Map.
Zoning: The site is presently zoned Agricultural (A).
PROPOSED PLAN
Lots: The development plan calls for 32 detached villa lots to be con-
structed of single family housing style. The lot sizes range in size from a
minimum size of 5,750 square feet and 50 feet in minimum width. Re-
quested PUD modifications to the typical lot minimum sizes and widths
are as follows:
Min. Lot Area Min. Lot Width
Villa Lots 5,750 sq. ft. proposed
(12,000 sq. ft. required)
50 feet proposed
(86 feet required)
Density: Density of the development is based on the net area of the site,
which is approximately 2.9 acres. There is a total of 32 units proposed,
for an overall density of approximately 4.4 units per acre.
Building Setbacks: The developer requests PUD modifications to the
building setbacks as follows:
Parks / Trails: The developer proposes to construct a trail section from
the future neighborhood park which will lie southeast of the site through
the eastern part of Haven Ridge South and along Wildflower Way to con-
nect with the regional trail that is proposed under the overhead power lies
north of the site.
Tree Replacement: There are many significant trees on this site, partic-
ularly in the east half of the site. Due to the need to install street and
public utility connections throughout the ever-varying existing topogra-
phy, it is difficult to preserve many tree areas, with the exception on the
site perimeter and around the large wetland. The developer has prepared
an extensive landscape plan which will incorporate over 150 trees (510
inches) of replacement on the private lots and outlots.

Access/Street: The developer proposes to connect streets to the exist-
ing Haven Ridge neighborhood (Wildflower Way) as well as future con-
nections to the south.
Sanitary Sewer / Water Mains: Sanitary sewer and watermain service
will be extended from the Haven Ridge Development project. Funds for
the removal of the temporary lift station that was installed as part of the
Haven Ridge Development will be submitted as part of the development
agreement for Haven Ridge South. This lift station will be removed when
a gravity line is installed sometime in the future with development of the
large property east of Hwy 18.
Grading / Storm water: The developer proposes to direct all storm water
to the single pond at the southwest corner of the site near the wetland.
The City and developer have discussed the City Engineering Dept. com-
ments related to storm water and grading at length and have determined
a way to address these issues in future plan revisions.
Home Owner’s Association: The developer proposes the creation of a
home owner’s association which will incorporate the commitment to
higher quality architectural materials with association maintained land-
scaping. The developer will commit to the use of architectural standards
including stone, brick, stucco, and lap siding, non-monotony standards,
accent design features, and landscaping standards that are in addition to
the city standards for architectural design.
Fees and Assessments: This development will be subject to the stand-
ard development fees, including park dedication and trunk street and util-
ity service charges.
Conclusion
City staff and the developer have discussed their development plan, the
main City comments and concerns from the first City Staff plan review.
City staff believes the developer is identifying unique PUD benefits within
the site, including the preservation of open space, mix of life cycle hous-
ing types, and a trail looping connection that will be installed by the de-
veloper and maintained by the local home owner’s association (HOA)
even though it will be considered a trail for public use.
As noted in the attached staff memorandums, the developer must refine
the development plans to assure compliance with the Public Works De-
sign Manual requirements and City Zoning Ordinance. The City Staff
feels these comments will not drastically alter the design of the develop-
ment plan or preliminary plat. Therefore, City staff does advise the Plan-
ning Commission to consider approval of the Haven Ridge South Prelim-
inary Plat and PUD Plan with the following conditions:
1. The developer shall revise the plans per the January 9, 2018 City
Engineering & Public Works Department Memorandum.
2. The developer shall revise the plans per the January 3, 2018 City
Community Development Department Memorandum.
3. The developer shall obtain a grading permit from the City Engi-
neering Department prior to any grading or tree removal on the
site.
4
4. The Developer shall obtain the required permits from other state
or local agencies prior to applicable on the site
ISSUES: PUD’s provide a flexible approach to development that allows creative,
efficient and effective use of land, including the mixing of land uses. The
proposed project includes a mix of housing types and lot sizes. A PUD
tends to preserve more unique features on site and provides more open
space. The overall net housing density remains low (4.4 units per acre).
The PUD must be reviewed based on the criteria found in Section 1106
of the Zoning Ordinance. The criteria which are applicable to the Haven
Ridge South PUD are discussed below:
(1) Provides a flexible approach to development which is in harmony with
the purpose and intent of the City's Comprehensive Plan and Zoning
Ordinance.
The proposed PUD is consistent with the Comprehensive Land Use
Plan designations on the entire site. The PUD approach allows the
location of the different land uses in ways that preserve and enhance
the natural features of the site with open space areas.
(2) More creative, efficient and effective use of land, open space and
public facilities through mixing of land uses.
The proposed PUD plan provides over 20% of open space on the site.
(3) Create a sense of place and provide more interaction among people;
The PUD plan proposes a trail behind the lots on the east side which
will lead to the local neighborhood park. The continuity of
architectural styles within the housing units and common
maintenance of the landscaped areas by the home owner’s
association (HOA) will provide a sense of place throughout the
development.
(4) Increase transportation options, such as walking, biking or bussing;
The plan includes a trail that will connect to the regional trail system
which extends to Hwy 18, the existing regional trail in Savage, and a
future connection to the residential areas and parkland to the south.
(5) Provide opportunities for life cycle housing to all ages.
The PUD plan includes a villa housing type that generally appeals to
entry level home owners as well as retirees or senior demographics.
(6) Provide more efficient and effective use of streets, utilities, and public
facilities that support high quality land use development at a lesser
cost.
The development will provide the next public street link to a future
connection to 138th Street NE (the local collector road in the area).
(7) Enhanced incorporation of recreational, public and open space
components in the development which may be made more useable
and be more suitably located than would otherwise be provided under
conventional development procedures. The PUD district also
encourages the developer to convey property to the public, over and
above required dedications, by allowing a portion of the density to be
transferred to other parts of the site.
5
The PUD incorporates preservation of natural open space around the
proposed trail.
(8) Preserves and enhances desirable site characteristics and open
space, and protection of sensitive environmental features including,
but not limited to, steep slopes, wetlands, and trees. Where
applicable, the PUD should also encourage historic preservation, re-
use and redevelopment of existing buildings.
The plan includes a trail corridor connection to the south residential
development and neighborhood park. This trail, while public in
nature, will be added to the maintenance schedule of the local home
owner’s association (HOA).
(9) High quality of design compatible with surrounding land uses,
including both existing and planned.
The proposed design is compatible with the surrounding low density
residential land use. The developer and home owner’s association
(HOA) will commit to the use of architectural standards including
stone, brick, stucco, and lap siding, non-monotony standards, accent
design features, and landscaping standards that are in addition to the
city standards for architectural design.

HAVEN RIDGE SOUTH
Dixon Property - Prior Lake, MN
Planned Unit Development (PUD) Benefits
Winkler Land Co, LLC is requesting a Preliminary Plat and Preliminary Planned Unit
Development Plan for Haven Ridge South. Haven Ridge South is approximately 11 acres
and includes 32 lots and two oulots, one of which will be held for future development.
The property is located at 13625 Crest Avenue NE south of the Haven Ridge
development and north of the Chadwick property and Summit Preserve.
PUD Benefits
The plat is proposed to be an extension of the Villa Homes that M/I Homes is building in
the Haven Ridge plat. M/I Homes will be the exclusive builder of the homes and it is
planned that these homes and neighborhood will be added to the same association as the
Villa Homes in the Haven Ridge neighborhood.
Life Cycle Housing
The Villa Homes are part of the life-cycle of homes and bring a new product type to the
City of Prior Lake. The Villa Homes are single family homes with association
maintenance of yard areas and snow removal. These homes meet the increasing demand
for one-level living with association maintenance. Villa Homes provide the benefits of a
single family home, with all the conveniences of a townhome. The association
maintenance of lawn areas and snow removal provides the homeowner with the freedom
to travel, own a winter or summer home, or more time for recreation. Haven Ridge South
homeowners may select "ale-carte" services through the homeowner association, such as
gutter cleaning, spring and fall clean-up, and other services to assist in the upkeep and
maintenance of the outdoor spaces.
Landscaped Yards
Since the Villa Homes yards are proposed to be maintained through an association,
landscaping of the yards has been proposed. The plantings are a key way to beatify the
neighborhood and keep a similar appearance as the Haven Ridge neighborhood, but yet
keep unity in the appearance throughout the neighborhood. Additional landscaping has
been proposed along the trail connection within the plat.
Trail Connection
Within the Haven Ridge plat a regional east/west trail was planned for connecting the
Savage border to County Road 18. A trail section was also planned heading south to the
proposed city park being proposed at the corner of the Summit Preserve and Haven Ridge
plats. As a PUD benefit of Haven Ridge South, a trail loop is being proposed from this
trail through Haven Ridge South and north along Wildflower Way. This trail will serve as
a loop for this entire area and is a added benefit to the PUD.

Memo
Date: January 9, 2018
To: Community Development
From: Nick Monserud, Assistant City Engineer
Pete Young, Water Resources Engineer
Subject: Haven Ridge South (Project #DEV17-000010)
The Public Works Department has reviewed the preliminary plat for the subject project with a draft
plan date of 11/29/17 (Received 12/6/17) and we have the following comments. Comments
highlighted in bold text are of particular concern:
General
1. The final plat plans should follow the requirements of the Public Works Design Manual
(PWDM).
2. Permits from the Met Council, Minnesota Pollution Control Agency, Scott County, and
Department of Health are needed.
3. City Project #DEV17-000010 should be shown on all plan sheets.
4. All plans should be drafted according to the City of Prior Lake layer system. A digital
copy of the plans in pdf or tif format is required prior to construction. All drawings should
use the Scott County Coordinate System.
5. Provide datum information on the survey sheet.
6. Driveways may not be wider than 24’ at right-of-way. Please revise driveways
accordingly.
7. The City will require an escrow for the de-commissioning of the lift station at the corner
of CSAH 18 and Crownline when the property to the West develops.
Grading
1. Provide name of company, contact person, and emergency phone number for person
responsible for erosion and sediment control implementation and maintenance.
2. Retaining walls over 4’ in height will require a retaining wall permit from the City. They
must be designed and reviewed by a Structural Engineer.
3. Show slopes for maintained areas at no more than 4:1, unmaintained at 3:1. Areas that are
shown or seem steeper than 3:1 include: Lots 2 and 3 block 3.
4. Raise lots 9 and 10 of block 1 so the low opening is 2’ above the EOF.
5. Please move retaining walls to private property to be maintained by the HOA.
Utilities
1. A detail review will take place once final plat (plan and profile) has been submitted.
Below are general comments regarding the utility plans that were submitted with the
preliminary plat.
2. In order to remove the sewer and watermain crossing at station 6+50 and maintain 10’ of
separation, it would be beneficial to flip the watermain and storm sewer main to the
opposite sides of the road. Please revise accordingly.
3. Provide utility plan and profile sheets.
Streets
1. A detail review will take place once final plat (plan and profile) has been submitted.
Below are general comments regarding the street plans that were submitted with the
preliminary plat.
2. Provide street and storm sewer sheets.
3. Provide geotechnical analysis report for soil borings in the project area. Show soil boring
locations on all plan sheets.
Hydrology and Stormwater Management
1. HydroCAD model comments:
a. Model must be revised to reflect the filtration design. The model currently
takes credit for infiltration, and this infiltration (exfiltration) is applied over
the wetland surface.
b. Wetlands may be used for rate control subject to City approval. The
alternate standard for wetland rate control is 0.05 cfs/net tributary acre
(discharge leaving the wetland) for the 2-year storm event. The 10-year and
100-year events are subject to the Prior Lake Outlet Channel requirements
of 0.25 cfs/net tributary acre. These requirements are not met with the
current design. See PWDM Section 4.2 for additional details.
c. If rate control requirements are met at the point of discharge from pond
4000P the wetland rate control requirements are not applicable; this would
be preferred over using Wetland 3W for rate control as currently proposed.
d. The drainage area that includes CSAH 18 was not taken into consideration.
Please update the model to include the CSAH 18 drainage area and existing
Scott County stormwater infrastructure under both existing and proposed
conditions. Scott County will need to approve any changes to infrastructure
within their ROW or easements and any modifications that may impact
downstream infrastructure.
e. A detail HydroCAD review will take place with a revised submittal that addresses
the bold comments above.
2. Street B should be shifted to the east to allow for future expansion of the stormwater
basin; as currently shown, Street B would restrict future stormwater BMPs on the
property to the south.
3. OHWL of Wetland 3W should be 979.5 based on the detail for OCS-3W on Sheet 10.
4. FES 3W-1 should have an invert of 979.5 or be fully submerged to provide skimming.
5. FES-4000B should be at 979.50 to match the Wetland 3W OHWL.
6. Elevations for OCS-4000 on sheet 12 do not match the detail on Sheet 10.
7. FES-4001 should match the OHWL elevation of the stormwater basin (elevation may be
revised based on comment above).
8. The outlet pipe to OCS-4000 appears that it will be sticking out of the ground once pipe
thickness is figured in.
9. The draintile for the filtration area will not work as shown based on elevations.
Filtered water will not drain out of the pond area into the wetland. Filtration shelf
designs typically have a weir wall within the structure and draintile enters on the
downstream side. Detail for OCS-4000 should show location of the draintile.
10. Include additional design information and a detail for the volume control BMP that meets
Minnesota Stormwater Manual requirements. Filtration design requirements are listed
under Bioretention. Detail review of the BMP design will take place with a revised
submittal.
11. CBMH-4003 must include a 3’ sump to provide pre-treatment prior to discharging to the
stormwater BMPs.
12. Show or define access routes for maintenance purposes to all inlets and outlets at ponding
areas (must be maximum of 8% grade, 2% cross slope and 10’ wide).
13. There may be opportunities to expand stormwater treatment at the site and provide
additional PUD benefits. It may be possible to divert some stormwater to Outlot B
(elevation may limit this, however). Expanded stormwater BMPs could be considered as
well but this would require lot adjustments. Please consider providing stormwater-related
PUD benefits for this project.
SWPPP
1. NPDES construction site permit will be required for this project. Please submit a SWPPP
that meets all current NPDES requirements. The City must approve the SWPPP prior to
grading permit approval.
2. Provide a note stating that perimeter/downslope sediment control BMPs will be installed
by the contractor and inspected by the city prior to site work commencing.
3. Install erosion control BMPs on slopes greater or equal to 3:1 immediately after finished
grading.
4. Drainage areas over 5 acres must have a temporary sediment basin. Design should follow
NPDES SWPPP requirements.
Wetlands
1. Wetland impacts are proposed for Wetland 4W. All Wetland Conservation Act (WCA)
procedures must be followed. A WCA application (Replacement Plan) and Notice of
Decision are required before any wetland impacts may occur.
2. The average wetland buffer must be at least 30 feet. The plans show a 20-foot buffer
around most of the wetland. Please document (figure or calculations) that the 30-foot
average buffer requirement will be met. Areas below the HWL of the adjacent
stormwater basin cannot be used in the buffer averaging calculation as that area is part of
the stormwater BMP.
3. Sheets L1 and T1 show a hatched feature near Wetland 3W and the adjacent stormwater
basin. This feature appears to be an access for the basin. Installation of a paved or gravel
access in this area would conflict with the wetland buffer seeding shown on Sheet 8 and
could impact buffer calculations.
4. Add wetland details, including functional classification, OHWL, HWL, and EOF, to all
plan sheets.
5. Wetland buffer hatching should be shown on all plan sheets and in the legend.
6. Wetland buffer monument locations should be shown on the plans.

2. Neighborhood Meeting – City Staff encourages the developer to hold a neighborhood
meeting prior to the public hearing of the project to assist neighboring property owners in
the knowledge of the project.
3. Gas Easement - Submit copy of gas easement document #203910 for City Staff reference.
4. Phasing plan - Provide tentative phasing plan if any for City Staff reference. (Final
phasing plan to be presented with Final Plat/Final PUD application.)
5. Ghost Plat - Submit ghost plat indicating lot areas along with the shown potential street
connections through adjacent property to the south.
PUD/Site Plan/Landscape Plan
6. PUD Benefits - Submit additional information related to the PUD benefits offered
though this development proposal that are above and beyond the required public
improvements. These benefits could include additional trail construction beyond
requirement, public trail/park features and improvements, contributions to utility
or street oversizing cost, contribution to park improvements above requirement,
architectural design above typical requirement, etc. Developer has identified
architectural design as PUD benefits; however, City Staff recommends additional
PUD benefits be considered by the developer.
7. PUD modifications – The developer requests modifications to the typical R-1 zoning
requirements in the following areas:
a. Lot size – Min. proposed – 5,750 sq. ft., Min. required (R-1) – 12,000 sq. ft.
Date: January 3, 2017
To: John Anderson
From: Jeff Matzke, Planner;
Subject: Haven Ridge South Preliminary Plat and PUD
City Project #DEV17-000024
b. Lot width – Min. proposed – 50 feet, Min. required – 86 ft.
c. Side Setback – Min proposed – 4 feet, Min. required – 10 feet
