Commissioner Stamson read the Public Hearing Statement and opened the meeting.
A. EP05-158 Pulte Homes has submitted an application for a Preliminary Plat
consisting of 118.2 acres to be subdivided into 117 lots for a residential development
known as The Enclave at Cleary Lake. This property is located north of 180th
Street, west of CSAH 87 (Revere Way), east of Jackson Circle and directly south of
the Deerfield Development.
Planning Coordinator Danette Moore presented the Planning Report dated September 12,
2005, on file in the office ofthe City Planning Department.
Pulte Homes has applied for approval of a development to be known as The Enclave at
Cleary Lake on property located north of 180th Street, west of Revere Way, east of
Mushtown Road, and south of Deerfield Drive.
The two phased proposal involves a single-family development consisting of 117
dwelling units on approximately 119 acres. All of the lots will meet the minimum lot
area and lot width requirements. The overall layout of the plat appears appropriate, given
the constraints of the site. The applicant must address the conditions as outlined in the
L:\05 FlLES\05 PLAN COMMISSION\05 MINUTES\MN09l205.doc

Planning Commission Minutes
September 12, 2005
report. However, none of these conditions will impact the general design of the proposed
plat. For that reason, if the Planning Commission finds it appropriate, the plat can
proceed to the City Council, subject to conditions.
The staff recommended the following conditions:
1. In accordance with the agreement between the developer and Spring Lake
Township, the developer shall make improvements to 180th Street concurrently
with the development of the project.
2. Provide a revised Tree Inventory/Tree Preservation Plan that demonstrates size
and species specific to individual trees detailed on the plan. The plan must also
distinguish which trees proposed to be removed will be impacted by future
building pads, utility areas, roadways and driveways.
3. Phase II ofthe project will not be allowed to proceed prior to the necessary
upgrades of the lift station as outlined in this report.
4. The Wetland Mitigation Plan dated May 18,2005, must be approved by the City.
5. All Engineering Department comments must be addressed.
6. A cash dedication in lieu of land must be paid for any remaining unmet parkland
dedication requirements.
There were no questions from the Commissioners.
Comments from the Public:
Tina Goodroad of Pulte Homes, thanked staff for all their help. Goodroad presented page
9 of the proposal and explained the trail; landscaping and monument signs. There have
been no changes in the plan since the neighborhood meeting on May 10th.
Ringstad questioned the home sale price. Goodroad responded around $500,000.
Billington questioned if there were any concerns from the neighbors. Goodroad said a
few township residents would like the area to remain rural.
Byron Millenacker, 18000 Mushtown Road, stated his objection to the project as Spring
Lake Township is mandating the residents to pay for the rest ofthe pavement on
Mushtown Road. He felt the developer should pay their own way. It is not up to the
residents to pay for Pulte Homes who is already making thousands of dollars on this
project. IfMushtown Road is paved there will be more demand for development in the
Spring Lake Township area. The annexation agreement was just signed two years ago
however it was believed it would be twenty years before this area would develop. The
agreement should be not sidestepped. The other concern is for traffic on Mushtown Road.

September 12, 2005
Millenacker recommended the Planning Commission should have existing long-time
residents' interests in mind.
Billington questioned if the paving and infrastructure costs were discussed at the
neighborhood meeting. Millenacker said it was not and went on to say Pulte should pay
for all the road improvements.
Margaret Squires, 17320 Deerfield Drive, said she was confused with the wetlands.
Kansier explained the wetland impacts. The large wetland will not be impacted in any
way.
The public hearing was closed at 6:52 p.m.
Comments from the Commissioners:
Ringstad:
. Questioned the pavement of 180th to Mushtown Road. Kansier responded Pulte
would be paying for it.
. Read the report - very few issues.
. Support.
. Does not know ifthe road upgrade the resident (Millenacker) was referring to was
part ofthe Pulte development. Spring Lake Township makes that decision.
Billington:
. Based on the material presented and the testimony, I will support.
Stamson:
. Agreed with Commissioners - it is a straightforward development.
. Typical single family development - fits the area.
. As far as the Mushtown Road upgrade comment - agreed with Ringstad - the
Township has decided to pave the road with all the traffic from the southern part
of the township. It has nothing to do with Pulte's development.
. Overall the development fits.
. Support.
MOTION BY BILLINGTON, SECOND BY RINGSTAD, RECOMMENDING
APPROVAL OF THE PRELIMINARY PLAT SUBJECT TO THE LISTED
CONDITIONS.

This item will go before the City Council on October 3, 2005.
B. 05-191 Dahle Brothers, Inc., is requesting a variance from the minimum
front yard; shoreland setback and impervious surface coverage for property owner
David Huberty located at 3051 Spring Lake Road SE.

Planning Commission Minutes
September 12, 2005
Planner Jeff Matzke presented the Planning Report dated September 12,2005, on file in
the office of the City Planning Department.
David Huberty is requesting a variance to construct a single family dwelling on property
located at 3051 Spring Lake Road. In order to construct the dwelling shown on the
attached survey, the following variances are required:
. A 6.6 foot variance from the 20 front yard setback required in the R-1 district
(Section 1102.405 (4)).
. An 11.9% variance from the 30% maximum impervious surface coverage
allowed in the R-1 district (Section 1104.306).
. A 33 foot variance from the required 50 foot ordinary high water setback
required in the R -1 SD (Low Density Residential Shoreland) district (Section
1104.308 (2)).
The applicant is proposing to remove the existing cabin, shed, and driveway to allow for
the construction of a new single family dwelling. The proposed structure will be 1,262
square feet in area. The lot area to an elevation of912.8 feet (OHW) is 3,611 square feet.
In the R-1 use district, the minimum front yard setback is 25 feet. However, there is a
provision allowing the front yard setback to be the average setback of those structures
within 150 feet of the subject site. However the setback can be no less than 20 feet. The
average front yard setback in this neighborhood is 10.3 feet. In this instance, the
applicant is proposing a 13.4 foot front yard setback.
The Shore land Ordinance permits a maximum of 30% impervious surface coverage for
residential property. The applicant is proposing decreasing to 41.9% coverage. The
current impervious surface coverage is 46.4%. The DNR was noticed on the variance
request. It is the Area Hydrologist's opinion the proposed home considers the lot
constraints and is sized and located reasonably with respect to the shoreland
requirements.
The strict application of the front yard setback, OHW setback, and impervious surface
coverage create hardships for the property owner. The proposed changes to the existing
conditions ofthe lot actually improve the current setbacks and impervious coverage of
the lot. Based upon the Findings, staff recommended approval of this requested variance.
Comments from the Public:
Applicant Chuck Ryan of Dahle Brothers, stated staff presented the report very well. It is
an unusual lot and they feel their improvements reduce the impervious surface. Thanked
staff for all their work.
There were no other comments and the public hearing was closed at 7:03 p.m.

Comments from the Commissioners:
Billington:
. The situation is improved. Support.
Ringstad:
. The improvements will have less impact on the lake - that's what we look for.
. All 9 hardship criteria are met. Support.
Stamson:
. Agreed with Commissioners - it is probably one of the smallest lots I have seen.
. Generally I am admittedly opposed to impervious surface overage however, this
particular design is very sufficient. It is reducing the coverage.
. The requests are reasonable and there are no other alternatives. Support.
MOTION BY RINGSTAD, SECOND BY BILLINGTON, ADOPTING RESOLUTION
05-13PC APPROVING THE REQUESTED VARIANCES.
Vote taken indicated ayes by all. MOTION CARRIED.
Stamson explained the appeal process.
C. EPOS-183 Roy Erickson and Cal Chadwick are requesting a Variance to the
minimum lot area in order to subdivide a parcel for conveyance to the adjacent
parcel. This property is located north of CSAH 42, on the east side of Crest Avenue.
Planning Director Jane Kansier presented the Planning Report dated September 12,2005,
on file in the office ofthe City Planning Department.
This item was originally scheduled for a public hearing on August 22, 2005. At the
request of the applicants, the Planning Commission continued the public hearing until
September 12,2005.
Roy Erickson currently owns a 10 acre parcel, located at 13625 Crest Avenue NE. The
parcel is the site of a single family dwelling. Cal Chadwick is the owner of
approximately 19 acres ofland, located directly south ofthe Erickson property at 13755
Crest Avenue NE. Both properties are unplatted, and zoned A (Agricultural). Mr.
Chadwick would like to purchase 6 acres of land from Mr. Erickson and combine it with
his existing property. This would result in a 5.12 acre parcel with the existing Erickson
house, and a 25 acre parcel with the existing Chadwick house.
In order to subdivide the property, the following variance is required:
A 4.88 acre variance from the 10 acre minimum lot area in the A District (Section
1102.205).

Planning Commission Minutes
September 12, 2005
The application of the minimum lot area requirements of the Zoning Ordinance does not
create a hardship for the property owner. Allowing the subdivision to create a parcel less
than the minimum lot area is contrary to the purpose ofthe Agricultural Use District and
to the purpose of the Zoning Ordinance in general. Based upon the findings in this
report, staff recommends denial.
Comments from the Public:
Applicant Roy Erickson, stated he would like to subdivide the property. The status
"Agriculture" district has been changed by the County Assessor. He has enjoyed being a
farmer for many years. Ifhe sold his property to Cal Chadwick, Chadwick would be able
to use the land for agriculture purposes. Erickson said his home needs to be improved.
He would like to reduce the responsibilities of the land and take care of his home.
The public hearing was closed at 7:15 p.m.
Comments from the Commissioners:
Ringstad:
. In reviewing the hardship criteria - all 9 hardships have to be met. Agree with
staff - this comes up a bit short.
. Unless I hear something different, I will have to deny the request.
Billington:
. Given the current zoning, granting this variance would have an adverse impact on
the orderly development ofthe property.
. Consequently, I cannot support it.
Stamson:
. Agreed with staff and fellow Commissioners - there are no extraordinary or
exceptional conditions. It is a convenience for the applicant.
. The intent of the ordinance prevents creating substandard lots. It just does not
meet the hardships of a variance.
. Deny the request.

6. Old Business:
A. EP05-184 Busse Student Transport is requesting a Conditional Use Permit
to allow outdoor storage within the 1-1 zoning District legally described as Lot 2,
Block 2, Deerfield Industrial Park 2nd Addition.
Planning Coordinator Danette Moore presented the Planning Report dated September 12,
2005, on file in the office of the City Planning Department.
On August 22, 2005 a public hearing was held before the Planning Commission to
discuss an application request by Busse Student Transportation for a conditional use
permit to allow outdoor storage on a site located south of Adelmann Street and west of
Revere Way, within the Deerfield Industrial Park. The site plan showed a 7,200 square
foot structure and an outdoor storage area for the parking of buses. Individuals who
spoke at the public hearing brought up the following site specific concerns:
. Concerns related to the visual impacts of busses being parked within the
proposed proximity to the existing residential dwellings.
. Concerns related to inadequate screening provided by a six foot high fence and
trees.
. Concerns related to noise levels created by the proposed use.
After the public hearing was closed, Planning Commissioners discussed the concerns
raised during the public hearing and directed the applicant to review the site plan and
consider possible revisions to provide additional visual and noise mitigation through the
use ofberming or increased landscaping. The application was continued to the
September 12,2005 Planning Commission meeting.
On September 1, 2005 the applicant conducted a second neighborhood meeting, where
the following changes were discussed:
. The removal of bus parking spaces (3) that were originally proposed at the
western most end of the parking lot.
. The creation of a berm along a portion of the western end of the parking area.
The berm is proposed to extend approximately 86 ft in length and 20 ft in width.
The berm will be five feet (5') in height at its highest point.
. A revised landscaping plan to provide six -15 ft to 18 ft in height Colorado blue
spruce trees along the top of the proposed berm.
Overall, staff believes the outdoor storage is consistent with the intent of the 1-1 use
district provided the conditions of approval are met. The planning staff recommended the
following additional conditions:
1. The applicant shall record the Conditional Use Permit at Scott County no later than
60 days after City Council approval.
L:\05 FILES\05 PLAN COMMISS10N\05 MINUTES\MN09l205.doc

2. A plan must be provided that details the materials used for the construction of the
gates to the fenced enclosure areas.
3. A zoning permit shall be issued prior to the installation of the fence.
4. All vehicles within the outdoor storage area must be operable, licensed, and
registered.
5. A sign permit application must be submitted to the City prior to the installation of any
signage on the site.
6. Revise the lighting plan to show light spill not exceeding 1.0 at the property line.
7. Prior to site plan approval, the applicant shall submit revised plans reflecting plan
changes and conditions as indicated.
8. All conditions listed in Section 1102.1503(8) of the Zoning Ordinance shall be met.
9. All conditions listed in the August 17,2005 Engineering Department memo.
10. The plans must be revised to show the access road as Granite Court.
Moore went out on site to view two properties in the Deerfield development and felt the
berm and trees would block much of the view, there would be some visibility from the
second level. Moore said she was not sure the visibility of the main ground level. The
applicant cannot go into the wetland buffer area.
Comments from the Commissioners:
Billington:
. Given the zoning and conditions, the applicant's meritorious effort to mitigate the
visibility, which is the big issue here, I am looking favorability at this request.
. Requested applicant Jim Busse to explain to the neighbors how he is mitigating
much of the view with the berm and landscaping and still protect the wetlands.
Busse explained he has a landscape background and is aware of the problem. He
will also be adding additional trees in the future to take care of the view.
. The days of operation are Monday through Friday - starting at 6:20 am, some at
7:15 am and then 7:50 am. At no time will all the buses be running at the same
time. The buses do not return until after the runs from 4:00 pm to 4:30 pm. All
buses will be back by 5 :00 pm. There is a little bit of activity on weekends.
Sometimes on Saturday mornings. They may take the band to the airport.
Generally nothing happens on the weekends.
Ringstad:
. Asked Busse ifhe can stagger the tree planting. Busse explained that was the
plan.
. Is it possible ifthe drivers with the later morning shift leave from the far
(western) end of the parking lot? Busse responded they would. He wants to be a
good neighbor.
. Right now he has 14 buses and 8 mini buses. Ten years from now there could be
50 buses based on the rapid development.
. Busse went on to explain the landscaping and trees.

Planning Commission Minutes
September 12, 2005
Commissioner Stamson recognized Jerry Hanson as representative for the Deerfield
neighborhood to give a rebuttal on the comments.
Jerry Hanson, 17436 Deerfield Drive, representing the neighbors, said he was not in
agreement with the Commissioners how this area should have been zoned. Hanson stated
he has been in the private sector for 25 years and the public sector for 15 years and
recognizes that without a strategic plan it is difficult to develop the tactical and
operational plan. Hanson felt the 2030 Vision endorsed by the community was not being
met and refuted points of the plan. His second concern was for other owners storing their
buses on this lot. In his conversations with Scott County, the traffic is not significant
enough to mandate stop lights.
Hanson felt the 2030 document gives the Commissioners the opportunity to prevent
things from happening as described in the strategic plan. And, if the CUP was approved
tonight, it would violate points he outlined. There would be big impacts on the
neighborhood. At the time ofthe zoning only one neighbor spoke up. Hanson felt it was
staffs, City Council and the Planning Commission's responsibility to protect the
neighbors as well as the businesses. No question staff followed the letter of the law on
sending out notices, however, it was not in the spirit of neighborhood communication -
only three residents he surveyed were notified. Hanson stated communication should be
more wide-spread. They also believe the CUP fails point 5 of the application.
Hanson felt the future values of the properties will be affected by this development. No
amount of landscaping will block the view of the buses. He also felt there would be
problems with the sound and fumes from the buses. Hanson asked the Commissioners to
deny the Conditional Use Permit and rezone the Industrial area.
Keith Dalnert, 17440 Deerfield Drive, explained photos of the area.
Ringstad:
. After hearing all the testimony, I agree with Billington to support. It's not a
perfect solution for the neighbors, however there is a buffer with a berm and
many trees to provide additional screening both visually and for sound.
. The applicant is removing the three spaces to the west and with the improvements
we heard tonight - I will support.
Stamson:
. It is a balancing act. This is an important business in Prior Lake. I envisioned
something of fairly modest proportions. Fifty buses are significant. It's difficult
to rectify with the neighbors. You have to balance the needs of the business and
the neighborhood that's there.
. Don't see how adding additional trees will block the view. Trees closer to the
neighbors may be better. Don't see how adding trees along the parking lot will
buffer the view. Maybe I'm wrong and this will do it. It's a tough call.

. We talked about this and the impacts when we switched this District to "I". I
didn't think: it would be much different. Wouldn't have a problem ifit was a little
further from the residential area.
. Vote against it. I'll admit it's a tough call.
Billington:
. The reality is the zoning and that's what is in front ofus.
. I can think: of worse occupancies in an I District.
. The applicant has made every effort mitigate the exposure to the neighbors. What
else could he do? Those are the facts.
Stamson:
. Agreed. The applicant did a tremendous job in attempting to screen. The applicant
did a great job of trying to mitigate it.
. It is zoned properly.
. Just have a hard time with it. I just don't think: it can be done.
. The reason we have a Conditional Use Permit is to recognize outdoor storage is a
greater impact than we allow there. Ideally, you look at it and mitigate it. This is
a rare instance. I have a hard time imposing this on anyone else if I can't live
with it myself.
Ringstad:
. Stamson said a key word "mitigate". Its not eliminate. With the changes brought
tonight rather than approve it three weeks ago we brought it back to further
mitigate some of the circumstances. That has been accomplished. It's not
perfect. Not sure anything is going to be acceptable over there.
. The wetland look is going to change whether this is in or something else.
. It is enough of a balance to vote for it.
Stamson:
. To play both sides, I am not expecting it to be eliminated. I wouldn't even expect
to sit on the deck and not allow it if you see one bus. It's not that at all.
. I'm just looking at it and explaining my position and I'm not comfortable.
. I know the applicant has gone above and beyond mitigating it.

7. New Business:
A. 05- 190 Giles Properties, Inc. has submitted a concept plan for the
development of 79.34 acres to create 80 single family lots and 44 townhouse units on
the property formerly known as the O'Brien property. This property is located
south and east of MN TH 13, west of Crystal Lake, and north of Rice Lake.
Planning Director Jane Kansier presented the Planning Report dated September 12, 2005
on file in the office of the City Planning Department.
Giles Properties, Inc., has submitted a concept plan for the O'Brien property, which
consists of approximately 79 acres located south and east ofMN TH 13, west of Crystal
Lake and north of Rice Lake. The site is directly west of Heritage Landing. This
property is presently vacant land zoned R-1SD and designated as Low to Medium
Density Residential on the 2020 Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map.
The developers have submitted a concept plan showing the development of 124 units.
The plan includes 80 single family homes and 44 townhome units. The proposed density
on the site is 1.76 units per acre.
The developer is proposing to utilize the Planned Unit Development process for this site
in order to allow private streets within the townhouse portion of the site, and to allow for
smaller lots for the single family dwellings. Lots within the Rice Lake and Crystal Lake
Shoreland Districts are required to be 100' wide and at least 20,000 square feet in area.
In exchange for this flexibility, the developer is proposing the following benefits:
. A minimum 50' wide strip of land along the lake shores will be dedicated to the
public as park land. The strip will be configured in order to preserve the bluffs and
steep slopes along the lake.
. The developer will construct the trails within the 50' wide strip.
. The developer will construct a connection to Ida Circle. This will allow the Ida
Circle access on TH 13 to be closed, since the residents on that cul-de-sac will have
access to 170th Street.
. The developer will provide the City with the funds to construct a fishing pier in
Crystal Lake.
The staff has not reviewed the plan to identify whether any specifics as far as density,
open space and so on are consistent with the Zoning Ordinance. The DNR and the Prior
Lake Spring Lake Watershed District have also provided comments.
Comments from the applicant:
John Anderson of Giles Properties, added there will be additional trails. Anderson felt
they would meet concerns and requirements from the DNR and Watershed District.
There is no agreement between a property owner on Ida Circle for access at this time.

September 12, 2005
The lots proposed are a minimum of 15,000 square feet. The project would be completed
in two phases. Townhome styles would be similar to those at Heritage Landing.
Anderson commented on custom grading some of the wooded lots. He felt staff
presented a good overview of the project. One final comment was pointing out the right-
in, right-out access on County Road 12.
Billington questioned if there would be a significant impact to the wetlands as suggested
by the Watershed District. Anderson responded he felt the conditions would be met.
Ringstad commented on the custom graded lots. Anderson explained their architectural
requirements.
Billington questioned the timeline. Anderson said the next step would be to prepare and
submit a preliminary plat and start construction next spring with the townhouse project.
Stamson questioned the PUD tradeoff. Anderson said he did not have the exact square
footage numbers but felt the sizes were scattered from 14,000+ to 20,000 square feet.
They would not clear-cut the area. The object is to keep as many trees as possible.
Comments from the Commissioners:
Stamson:
. Likes the significant trail system. The lot size is a good tradeoff. It's what we
need along the lake shore and trails.
Ringstad:
. We do look for tradeoff and benefits on PUD's. Agreed with Stamson - this
looks like it meets some of the requirements.
. Questioned staff on the fishing pier. Is there any fish in Crystal Lake? Kansier
said the DNR is working with the Park staff.
Stamson:
. Where is the parking? Kansier and Anderson said this would be a neighborhood
pIer.
Kansier said this presentation will go before the City Council on October 3rd.
