Dear Mark,
On behalf of the Eagan Hockey Association, I want to thank you for spending the time and effort to
discuss the need for new scoreboards with EHA. It is great to have a partner that wants and will take
into consideration the input of our association in making this large capital improvement decision.
believe that through research and discussion we have come up with the best and most prudent plan to
replace all of the (4) scoreboards in the Civic Arena (2 in the East and 2 in the West rinks) at one time
with the option to enhance the primary scoreboard in the West rink in the future. EHA will work with
the city to create a plan and committee to help raise additional dollars through sponsors and donors to
enhance the primary scoreboard in the West rink.
Eagan Hockey's Board of Directors has approved a $50,000 donation to the city for the purpose of
ordering / purchasing the 4 scoreboards per our discussions.
Thank you again for your partnership with the Eagan Hockey Association.
ohn Ferlit

REPORT DATE: October 1, 2014
APPLICANT: Joseph Leonard
PROPERTY OWNER: Same
REQUEST: Variance
LOCATION: 1714 Kyllo Lane
PLANNING REPORT
CITY OF EAGAN
CASE: 17- VA- 09 -09 -14
HEARING DATE: October 7, 2014
APPLICATION DATE: September 17, 2014
PREPARED BY: Kathleen Hammer
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: LD, Low Density
ZONING: R -1, Single - family
SUMMARY OF REQUEST
The applicant is requesting approval of a 2' 10" Variance to the required 30 -foot structure
setback from public right -of -way for property located at 1714 Kyllo Lane.
AUTHORITY FOR REVIEW
City Code Chapter 11, Section 11.50, Subdivision 3, B., 3, states that the Council may approve,
approve with conditions or deny a request for a variance. In considering all requests for a
variance, and whether the applicant established that there are practical difficulties in complying
with the provisions(s) of this Chapter, the City Council shall consider the following factors:
a. Exceptional or extraordinary circumstances apply to the property which do not apply
generally to other properties in the same zone or vicinity, and result from lot size or
shape, topography, or other circumstances over which the owner of property has no
control.
b. The literal interpretation of the provisions of this Code would deprive the applicant
property use commonly enjoyed by other properties in the same district under the
provisions of this Code.
c. The exceptional or extraordinary circumstances do not result from the actions of the
applicant.
d. The granting of the variance will not confer on the applicant any special privilege that is
denied by this Chapter to owners of other lands, structures or buildings in the same
district.
Planning Report — 1714 Kyllo Lane
October 7, 2014
Page 2
e. The variance requested is the minimum variance which would alleviate the practical
difficulties.
f. The variance would not be materially detrimental to the purposes of this Code or to
properties in the same zone.
g. The property for which the variance is requested is otherwise in compliance with the City
Code.
The ordinance also states "A variance will be denied when it is not in harmony with the general
purposes and intent of the zoning provisions of this Code or when the variance is inconsistent
with the comprehensive plan. Any condition imposed upon the approved variance must be
directly related to and must bear a rough proportionality to the impact created by the variance."
CODE REQUIREMENTS
City Code Section 11.60, Subdivision E requires a minimum structure setback of 30 feet from a
public right -of -way in the R -1 zoning district.
BACKGROUNDMISTORY
Jon Croft Acres was platted in 1950 and the house was constructed in 1972. Since that time a
deck was constructed without the benefit of a Building Permit. The deck does not meet the 30-
foot structure setback from public right -of -way.
A contractor applied for a Building Permit earlier this summer to construct a roof over the
existing deck; however, the contractor started the construction before the Building Permit was
issued. During the Building Permit review process, it was determined a Variance was necessary.
The Building Inspections Division has issued a stop work order on the project.
SURROUNDING USES
The property is surrounded by R -1 zoned
parcels developed with Single Family homes.
EXISTING CONDITIONS
The existing single - family home is located on a
corner lot with street frontage on Knoll Ridge
Drive to the east and Kyllo Lane to the north.
The lot is approximately 16,553 s.f in area. The
house is situated at an angle on the property.
The parcel is located in the Shoreland Uverlay
District of Blackhawk Lake. The existing deck is located on the south side of the home and
Planning Report — 1714 Kyllo Lane
October 71 2014
Page 3
according to the Site Survey dated September 18, 2014; the existing setback from Knoll Ridge
Drive is 27' 2 ". City Staff was unable to find a Building Permit for the deck and the deck was
not part of the original Building Permit for the single - family home.
EVALUATION OF REQUEST
Proposal — The applicant is requesting an after - the -fact Variance to allow a roof addition over the
existing deck on the south side of the home. This results in a building setback from the Knoll
Ridge Drive right -of -way of 27' 2 ", as compared to the minimum required 30'.
According to the Applicant, the deck has been used infrequently due to exposure to the sun
during the summer months. The purpose of the roof is to provide a cover for the existing deck to
make the space more useful to the property owners.
Lot Coverage — City Code establishes a maximum building to lot area ratio of 20% within the
R -1 zoning district. The proposal complies with this standard. The building coverage prior to
the roof addition was 1,924 sq. ft., for a coverage ratio of 11.6 %. The roof addition added
219.62 sq. ft., for a total building coverage of 2,143.62 sq. ft. and a coverage ratio of 13 %. A
deck (without a roof) is not considered building coverage or impervious coverage if there is
pervious surface beneath.
The property is in the Blackhawk Lake Shoreland Overlay District, thus the property is subject to
a maximum of 25% impervious coverage. Based upon the footprint of the home (1,396 sq. ft.),
garage (528 sq. ft.) and driveway (1,305 sq. ft.) the impervious coverage is 3,229 sq. ft. or 20%
of the lot, thus satisfying the standards for impervious coverage in a Shoreland Overlay District.
This figure does not account for additional impervious surface that may exist such as patios and
sidewalks, as that information was not provided by the Applicant; however, the property appears
to be 910 sq. ft. or 5% under the maximum allowed impervious surface coverage of 25 %.
Variance Criteria — The Zoning Ordinance states that relief may be granted from a required
ordinance provision provided there are special conditions that apply to the subject land, the relief
is not contrary to the Zoning Ordinance and Comprehensive Guide Plan, and it is necessary to
alleviate a practical difficulty.
The surrounding area is developed with similar residential development and, while Variances to
the 30 foot setback from public right -of -way are not frequently requested, the City Council has
approved similar requests in the past. The proposal satisfies other bulk standards.
The roof deck is off of the rear of the home. The existing and proposed use of the property is
consistent with the provisions of the City Code. It does not appear that granting of the Variance
would result in any detrimental effects to the neighboring properties or the public.
APPLICANT'S PRACTICAL DIFFICULTIES
The stated practical difficulty is that the existing deck (built by a previous owner) does not
adhere to the 30 foot setback from the public right -of -way. The applicant contends the current
Planning Report — 1714 Kyllo Lane
October 7, 2014
Page 4
deck does not get fully utilized because of sun exposure and the roof will allow for greater use of
the deck. The addition is proposed in the rear yard which will have little, if any, visual impact
off site or from the public street.
SUMMARY /CONCLUSION
In summary, the applicant is proposing a 2'10" setback Variance to allow a roof addition to the
existing deck on a corner lot which results in a building setback of 27' 2 "from public right -of-
way. The homeowner started work on the roof without the benefit of a Building Permit and a
Stop Work Order was issued by the Building Inspections department. Other bulls standards that
apply to the proposal appear satisfied.
The conditions resulting in the requested Variance do not appear to be unique to this property;
however, the proposed building expansion (roof) necessitating the Variance does not appear to
present detrimental impacts to neighboring properties or the public. If approved, this Variance
only provides for the roof addition.
ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED
To approve a Variance of 2'10" to the required 30 -foot setback from a public right -of -way for
property located at 1714 Knoll Ridge Lane. If approved, the following conditions should apply:
1. If within one year after approval, the variance shall not have been completed or utilized, it
shall become null and void unless a petition for extension has been granted by the council.
Such extension shall be requested in writing at least 30 days before expiration and shall state
facts showing a good faith attempt to complete or utilize the use permitted in the variance.
2. The Applicant shall obtain an approved Building Permit.
3. The exterior materials of the proposed roof addition shall complement the existing structure.

Application for setback Variance at 1714 Kyllo Lane Eagan, MN 55122
September 16, 2014
City of Eagan
This proposal letter is to request and substantiate the grant of a Variance for a private
residence at 1714 Kyllo Lane in Eagan. The Variance requested is a relatively minor
setback Variance, and as shown below clearly meets the parameters required to support a
finding in favor of the Variance. Further, if granted, this Variance will not violate or
circumvent any exclusionary parameters set forth in the City Code.
The petitioner requests a setback Variance allowing a roof be added over the existing
deck which does not adhere to the 30 foot setback from public right of way. This
encroachment exists on the South East side of the property on along Knoll Ridge Drive.
Support of Favorable Findings:
Eagan City code sets forth the conditions under which the City Council may approve a
request for a variance. The petitioner is confident that the proposed setback Variance falls
within these guidelines, notably;
a. "exceptional or extraordinary circumstance..." The home on this property
was built in 1972 as one of the first homes in the subdivision, possibly before the
property was subdivided. The South East corner of the home is 29 feet fi-om the
East property line which borders Knoll Ridge Drive. When the home was built a
deck was constructed in the same location as the current deck. At some point, a
previous owner had the original deck replaced. It does not appear that a
construction permit was obtained for the replacement of the deck at that time. In
addition; the house is situated at an angle on the property such that the South
East coiner of the home encroaches on the East side property line, and;
b. "literal interpretation... would deprive the applicant property use
commonly enjoyed by others" There are many other houses in the same
neighborhood with similar covered porches. Being that the existing deck is
situated on the South side of the home it has been used infrequently due to the
constant exposure to the sun during the summer and the petitioner would like to
cover the deck making it more useful. and ;
c. "The exceptional or extraordinary circumstances..." As stated above, the
existing deck was constructed prior to the petitioner owning the property. The
need for a setback Variance is due to the petitioner seeking a permit for the
construction of a roof over the existing deck., and ;
d. "The granting of the Variance will not constitute a grant of special
privileges..." As stated above there are many houses in the area with similar
covered decks that border public right of way. In addition; similar minor setback
Variances are commonly approved by the City, and;
e. "The variance requested is the minimum variance which would alleviate the
practical difficulties." The existing deck is 27.2 feet from the East property
line. The approval of a setback Variance would alleviate the need to deconstruct
the existing deck and have it reconstructed 2.8 feet to the West of its current
location at great cost and hardship to the petitioner.
f "not be materially detrimental to the purposes of this code or other
properties..." The purposes of setbacks are to generally permit eventual
expansion or improvement of streets and roads and to safely accommodate
vehicular or pedestrian traffic. Because there is a 5 foot high retaining wall
between the petitioners' property line and Knoll Ridge Drive the impact of a 2.8
foot Variance for the structure at this location will be an insignificant impact for
the City or other property owner's purposes. In addition; Knoll Ridge Drive is a
35 foot wide 'No Outlet" street that has primarily local resident traffic only.
g. "otherwise in compliance with City Code" based on conversations with the
City planning office the construction of the roof over the existing deck will be in
compliance with City code other than the requirement of the setback Variance
for the existing deck.
Additionally, the existing deck and roof that this Variance is being requested for does not
encroach or infringe on any neighboring residential properties, nor would it impose any
hardship on any neighbors, nor would it serve to create a situation where any neighbor's
quality of life, property value, or peaceful co- existence would be negatively affected.
The proposed roof and existing deck are designed, laid out, and shall be constructed in a
manner that achieves harmony with the existing home, neighborhood, and blends in
visually in a low -key, unobtrusive manner with the surroundings.
Photographs and diagrams in support of the requested Variance are attached hereto.
Respectfully submitted,
Joseph Leonard, Petitioner

Agenda Information Memo
October 7, 2014 Eagan City Council Meeting
PUBLIC HEARING
B. Wellhead Protection Plan Amendment, Part 2
Action To Be Considered:
Approve the Wellhead Protection Plan Amendment, Part 2, and authorize the Mayor and City
Clerk to execute all related documents.
Facts:
➢ The City of Eagan's first Wellhead Protection Plan (WHPP) was completed in March,
2002, in compliance with the Minnesota Wellhead Protection Rules (Minnesota Rules
4720.5100 through 4720.5590).
➢ The City of Eagan currently has 21 municipal water supply wells divided into two areas:
the North Well Field which includes 13 wells and the South Well Field which includes 8
wells. The wells draw water from the following aquifers: Mt. Simon Sandstone, Prairie
du Chien Group and Jordan Sandstone.
➢ The City has constructed two new municipal wells, Well 20 and Well 21, since the 2002
WHPP was prepared. Since the last delineation of the City's Wellhead Protection Areas
(WHPAs) and Drinking Water Supply Management Areas (DWSMAs), the Minnesota
Department of Health (MDH) has also instituted new requirements for inclusion of
fracture -flow analysis in the delineations.
➢ On December 18, 2012, the City Council approved the WHPP amendment, Phase 1. As
required by Minnesota Rule 4720.5570, new WHPAs and DWSMAs were delineated for
the City of Eagan. The WHPP amendment, Phase 1, summarized work completed and
fulfilled the requirements of the Minnesota Wellhead Protection Rules.
➢ An informational open house meeting was held on December 11, 2012, for all interested
parties to review and discuss the proposed amendment and updated delineations. No
one attended the meeting.
➢ On September 16, 2014, the draft of the Wellhead Protection Plan Amendment, Part 2,
was presented to the City Council and a Public Hearing was scheduled for October 7 to
formally present and discuss the report with all interested parties in compliance with
the Minnesota Wellhead Protection Rules.
➢ All notices have been published in the legal newspaper informing all interested parties
of this public hearing.

Executive Summary
The Wellhead and Source Water Protection Plan (the Plan) for the City of Eagan (the City) addresses
the 21 municipal water supply wells operated by the City. The original Eagan Wellhead Protection
Plan received final approval from the Minnesota Department of Health in 2005. This Plan
amendment was prepared in accordance with the applicable portions of the State of Minnesota
Wellhead Protection Rules (Minnesota Rules 4720.5100 through 4720.5590).
The Eagan water supply wells are located in two well fields (see Figure 1)., The North Well Field
includes Wells 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, 16, 17TL, 20, and 21. The South Well Field includes Wells 5,
10, 12, 13, 14, 15, 18, and 19. All the wells in both well fields are classified as primary water supply
wells. Wells 8 and 11 are open to the Mt. Simon Sandstone aquifer. Well 16 is open to less than 20
feet of the less transmissive lower portion of the Prairie du Chien Group aquifer and the entire
thickness of the Jordan Sandstone aquifer. All of the other Eagan water supply wells are open to the
Jordan Sandstone aquifer.
The Plan consists of two parts. In Part 1 of the Plan, wellhead protection areas (WHPAs) for the
Eagan water supply wells were delineated as were the associated drinking water supply management
areas (DWSMAs). The DWSMA associated with Eagan's South Well Field extends into the cities of
Apple Valley and Rosemount (see Figure 1). The DWSMA associated with Eagan's North Well Field
is located within the Eagan city limits. The vulnerability to contamination of the Eagan water supply
wells and the associated DWSMAs was also assessed. In accordance with Minnesota Rules
4720.5550, Eagan Wells 3, 4, 6, 7, 13, 14, 15 18, 19, and 21 were classified as vulnerable to releases
of contarninants at the surface while Wells 1, 2, 5, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 16, 17TL, and 20 were classified
as not vulnerable. Geologic conditions in and around the City's DWSMAs result in the uppermost
source water aquifer vulnerability being classified as High in approximately 58% of the area within
the DWSMAs with the aquifer vulnerability in the remainder of the area in the DWSMAs classified
as either Low or Moderate (see Figure 1). Part 1 of the Plan was approved by the Minnesota
Department of Health on November 30, 2012.
This document comprises Part 2 of the Plan and includes the following information:
Y A review of data elements identified by the Minnesota Department of Health as applicable to
the DWSMAs.
• Results of an inventory of potential contaminant sources within the DWSMAs.
P:\Mpls\23 MN \19\23191155 Eagan Wellhead Protection Plan \WorkFiles \Part 2 WHPP \DRAFT Eagan Part 2 WHPP_7- 3- 14.docx
• Review of changes, issues, problems, and opportunities related to the public water supply and
the identified potential contaminant sources.
• A discussion of potential contaminant source management strategies and the goals,
objectives, and action plans associated with these management strategies.
• A review of the Wellhead and Source Water Protection evaluation program and Eagan's
alternative water supply contingency strategy.
Potential contaminant sources identified in the DWSMAs include non - municipal wells, potential
Class V wells (consisting of properties associated with automotive repair and large scale septic
systems likely serving more than 20 people), hazardous waste generators, chemical storage sites,
storage tanks, old dump sites, and spill sites.
The goals and objectives of this Plan focus on reducing the potential contaminant pathways to the
source water aquifer that may be provided by private wells, educating City staff, property owners and
water supply users regarding wellhead and source water protection, and working with the Cities of
Apple Valley and Rosemount to ensure, to the extent possible, proper management of the portions of
the South Well Field DWSMA that extend into these cities.
The following goals have been identified for implementation of this Plan:
• Maintain or improve the current>.level of water quality so that the municipal water supply will
continue to meet or exceed all applicable state and federal water quality standards.
• Since the South Well Field DWSMA extends into surrounding cities, the City will, to the
extent possible and practicable, work with the surrounding cities with the goal of protecting
the source water aquifers.
• Provide information and promote activities that protect the City's source water aquifers. This
will result in increased public awareness of the Wellhead and Source Water Protection
Program and groundwater- related issues and include activities to manage the identified
potential contaminant source properties within the DWSMAs.
• Continue to compile data from the City's wells and available public sources to support future
wellhead and source water protection efforts.
Actions identified to accomplish these goals include the following:
• Well management
1. Encouraging the proper sealing of all unused wells within the DWSMAs.
2. Encouraging proper management of existing wells with in the DWSMAs.
P: \Mpls\23 MN \19 \23191155 Eagan Wellhead Protection Plan \WorkFiles\Part 2 WHPP \DRAFT Eagan Part 2 WHPP_7- 3- 14.docx 2
3. Evaluating the need for a new ordinance regarding installation of wells in the City.
• Potential contaminant source properties
1. Encourage proper handling of chemicals /wastes.
2. Encourage proper operation of storage tanks.
3. Removal of dump materials from within and near the IWMZ for Eagan Wells 8 and 9
4. Periodically obtain information on the status of various permits associated with
potential contaminant sources from the regulating agencies to allow timely
recognition of potential problems arising at a particular property that could affect the
municipal water supply.
Public education
1. Providing the public with information regarding the water quality of the City's
drinking water.
2. Improving public awareness and understanding of the City's Wellhead Protection
Program.
Land use management
1. Inclusion of wellhead and source water protection.in the City's planning process.
Continued data collection
1. Recording static and pumping water levels in the Eagan municipal wells.
2. Compilation of additional local geologic and hydrogeologic data as it becomes
available from public sources.
3. Using new geologic /hydrogeologic'data to update the groundwater flow model used
in the delineation of the WHPA.
4. Periodic compilation of updated information on potential contaminant sources within
the DW.SMAs.

1.0 Introduction
1.1 Background
The City of Eagan (the City) currently operates a total of 21 municipal water supply wells in two
well fields. The North Well Field includes Wells 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, 16, 17TL, 20, and 21. The
South Well Field includes Wells 5, 10, 12, 13, 14, 15, 18, and 19. Wells 8 and 11 are completed in
the Mt. Simon Sandstone aquifer. Well 16 is completed in the lowermost portion of the Prairie
du Chien Group aquifer and the Jordan Sandstone aquifer. However, the Prairie du Chien Group's
contribution to water pumped by Well 16 is considered negligible as the 137 -foot long open
hole intersects less than 20 feet of the less transmissive lower portion of the Prairie du Chien
Group aquifer. All of the other Eagan supply wells are completed in the Jordan Sandstone aquifer.
Well locations are shown on Figure 1 and well construction data are summarized in Table 1 and the
aquifer from which each well pumps is also identified. Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) well
records for the Eagan Municipal wells are presented in Appendix A.
Minnesota's Wellhead Protection Rules (4720.5100 — 4720.5590) require that public water suppliers
prepare a wellhead protection plan and that the plan be updated /amended every 10 years or when new
wells are added to the water supply system. This document is part 2 of an amendment of the City's
original wellhead protection plan. Final approval of the original plan was received from the
Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) .in 2005.
The City of Eagan Wellhead Protection. Plan amendment (WHPP) consists of two parts. In Part 1 of
the WHPP, .tlre Wellhead Protection Areas :(WHPAs) and Drinking Water Supply Management Areas
(DWSMAs) were delineated. Separate DWSMAs were delineated for each of the City's two well
fields. These DWSMAs are somewhat larger than the DWSMAs delineated for the original Plan due
mainly to the MDH requirement to include a fracture flow evaluation in the new WHPA delineation
process. The DWSMA associated with Eagan's South Well Field extends into the cities of Apple
Valley and Rosemount. The DWSMA associated with Eagan's North Well Field is located within the
Eagan city limits. The aquifer vulnerability classifications in both Eagan DWSMAs range from Low
to High (Barr, 2012). Part 1 of the WHPP was approved by the (MDH) in November 2012. A copy of
Part 1 of the Eagan WHPP is provided in Appendix B.

1.2 Description of the Public Water Supply System
The City of Eagan is in located in northern Dakota County. The City's municipal water supply
system (Public Water Supply 1190007) serves approximately 64,325 residents in Eagan and a portion
of Inver Grove Heights.
Figure 1 shows the locations of the City's 21 municipal water supply wells. The wells in the North
Well Field are found in Township 27N, Range 23W, Sections 9 and 16. The wells in the South Well
Field are found in Township 27N, Range 23W, Sections 27 and 28. As noted above, the wells are
completed in one or more of the following aquifers: Prairie du Chien Group, Jordan Sandstone, or
Mt. Simon Sandstone (Table 1). Minnesota unique well numbers for Wells 1 through 21 are shown
in Table 1. As shown in Table 1, Wells 3, 4, 6, 7, 13, 14, 15, 18 19, and 21 are classified as being
vulnerable to contamination from the surface while the remaining wells are classified as not
vulnerable to contalination (see also Barr, 2012).
The two well fields have a total firm capacity of 28.6 millon,gallons per day (MGD) (Eagan, 2010).
Water pumped from the municipal wells goes to one of two treatment facilities operated by the City.
One water treatment facility treats water pumped from the North Well Field and the other treatment
facility treats water pumped from the South Well Field. These .water treatment facilities have a
combined capacity of 38 million MGD,(Eagan, 2010). In the,treatment facilities, Eagan removes
iron and manganese from the raw water >and adds fluoride to prevent tooth decay and chlorine for
disinfection purposes prior to distribution ,(Bonestroo,'2008).
Eagan's water distribution system includes a wholesale connection to a portion of Inver Grove
Heights. The City of Burnsville supplies water to a small portion of Eagan.
Eagan currently has 6 water storage reservoirs consisting of a combination of ground reservoirs
built on high elevation points and water towers. These reservoirs have a combined storage capacity
of over 18.5 million gallons''(Bonestroo, 2008). The 2008 Water Supply and Distribution Plan
(Bonestroo, 2008) envisions the need for four additional water supply wells and one additional water
storage reservoir in the future to meet projected ultimate water demand.
As discussed in Barr (2012), pumping information from the City for the period 2007 through 2011
and City water use projections were used to develop pumping rate projections for use in delineating
the WHPAs. Annual volume of water pumped by each of the City's municipal water supply wells
during the period 2007 through 2011 is shown in Table 2.

1,3 DWSMA
The Eagan DWSMAs were delineated to encompass the 10 -year groundwater time of travel
zones around the City's wells using both porous media flow and fracture flow evaluation methods
(Barr, 2012).
The North Well Field DWSMA is found in Township 27N, Range 23W, Sections 3, 4, 5, 8, 9, 10, 15,
16, 17, 20, 21, and 22. The North Well Field DWSMA lies entirely within the city limits and does not
overlap with the DWSMA from any other city (Figure 1).
The South Well Field DWSMA is found in Township 27N, Range 23W, Sections 20, 21, 22, 26, 27,
28, 29, 32, 33,34 and 35; Township 115N, Range 19W, Sections `'7 and 18; and Township 115N,
Range 20W, Sections 11, 12, 13, and 14. Portions of the DWSMA delineated for the South Well
Field extend into the Cities of Apple Valley and Rosemount but the South Well Field DWSMA does
not overlap with the DWSMA from any other city (Figure 1). The City plans to work with Apple
Valley and Rosemount, to the extent feasible and practicable, to manage the portions of the South
Well Field DWSMA that extend into these other cities.

2.0 Identification and Assessment of Data Elements
The Minnesota Wellhead Protection Rules specify data elements that must be addressed in
wellhead protection plans. MDH staff met with City staff on two occasions to discuss the data
elements that are specified in Minnesota Rule 4720.5400. Results of the meetings were transmitted
to the City via two Scoping Decisions dated March 23, 2012 and January 15, 2013.
The first Scoping Meeting was held on March 12, 2012. At this meeting, the data elements related to
delineation of the WHPAs and DWSMAs and assessment of well and -aquifer vulnerability were
discussed as was the deadline of April 4, 2015 to complete the WHPP:
The second Scoping Meeting was held on December 17, 2012. At this meeting, the data elements
required to support development of Part 2 of the WHPP (this document) which identifies potential
contaminant sources within the DWSMAs and identifies management strategies to help safeguard the
municipal water supply from identified potential contaminant sources were discussed. An
assessment of the data elements that pertain to the Eagan WHPP has been prepared, as required by
the Minnesota Wellhead Protection Rule, and is presented in Appendix C.

3.0 Inventory of Potential Contaminant Sources
The DWSMA associated with Eagan's South Well Field extends into the cities of Apple Valley and
Rosemount (Figure 1). As shown on Figure 1, there are no areas of overlap between the Eagan
DWSMAs and the DWSMAs for any of the surrounding cities.
A variety of land uses are present in the DWSMAs that may impact the source water aquifer. Per the
January 15, 2013 Second Scoping Decision, the City performed a potential contaminant source
inventory (PCSI) within the DWSMAs.
3.1 Inventory Process
At the Second Scoping Meeting, the types of potential contaminant sources that must be inventoried
in the DWSMA were discussed. As discussed in Appendix C, sources of data accessed for the
potential contaminant source inventory include City ofEagan, Dakota County, Minnesota
Department of Natural Resources (MDNR), Minnesota Department of Public Safety (MDPS),
Minnesota Geological Survey (MGS), Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA), and U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) databases.
Aquifer vulnerability in the DWSMAs varies (Figure 1). Aquifer vulnerability in the majority of
the North Well Field DWSMA is classified as High and there are smaller areas in the DWSMA in
which the aquifer vulnerability is classified as Moderate or Low. In the South Well Field DWSMA,
while the areas of different aquifer vulnerability are more nearly equal than in the North Well
Field DWSMA, the High vulnerability classification applies to the largest percentage of the area in
the DWSMA and :the Low vulnerability classification applies to the smallest percentage of the area
in the DWSMA.
In the areas of Low aquifer vulnerability classification, the types of potential contaminant sources
inventoried include wells (active and sealed) and potential Class V disposal wells (defined by the
U.S. EPA as cesspools, large -scale septic systems serving more than 20 people, or potential
automotive maintenance waste disposal wells /pits). In the areas of Moderate aquifer vulnerability
classification, the types of potential contaminant sources inventoried include wells (active and
sealed), potential Class V disposal wells, and storage tanks. In areas of High aquifer vulnerability
classification, the types of potential contaminant point sources inventoried include wells (active and
sealed), chemical storage sites, potential Class V disposal wells, dump and spill sites, hazardous
waste generators, leaking tank sites, individual sewage treatment systems (ISTS; a.k.a., septic
P: \Mpls\23 MN \19\23191155 Eagan Wellhead Protection Plan \WorkFiles\Part 2 WHPP \DRAFT Eagan Part 2 WHPP_7- 3- 14.doox
systems), and registered storage tank sites. In addition, agricultural land use (non -point source) was
also identified in areas of High aquifer vulnerability.
The first step in the inventory was to determine if there were any potential contaminant sources in the
Inner Wellhead Management Zone (IWMZ) or the Emergency Response Zone (ERZ). The IWMZ is
defined as the area within a 200 -foot radius of each municipal well. The ERZ is defined as the area
within which the travel time of groundwater to one of the municipal wells is one year or less. The
inventory was then expanded out to the boundaries of the DWSMAs.
Potential contaminant sources were assigned a priority based on the relative risk they pose to the
public water supply. The evaluation of risk related to a potential contaminant source type is based on
the locations of potential contaminant sources of that type. Higher priority was assigned to those
potential contaminant sources that would potentially pose the highest risk to the municipal water
supply should a contaminant release occur.
3.2 Inventory Results
A more detailed discussion of the potential contaminant sources within the DWSMAs is presented in
Appendix C. The inventory results are summarized in Table 3.
The Wellhead Protection rules require that at least 25 locations of each type of potential contaminant
source identified during the 'PCSI be verified during preparation of the plan. The rules also require
that if there are fewer than 25 of a particular potential contaminant source type that all locations of
that type be verified. During the preparation of this Plan, all potential contaminant source locations
identified during the PCSI were verified to the extent possible based on available information.
Verification procedures used included matching mapped locations with addresses on in the applicable
federal, state, or county database, published business addresses, property parcel addresses, local
knowledge of City staff, and /:or :information from City files (note that not all verification procedures
were used for each type of potential contaminant source). Verified locations are identified in the
tables in Appendix C.

4.0 Impact of Changes to the Public
Water Supply Wells
In accordance with the requirements of Minnesota Rules 4720.5220, anticipated changes in the
physical environment, land use, surface water, and groundwater in the DWSMAs within the next 10
years and the impact of these changes on the source water aquifers are discussed in this section.
4.1 Potential Changes Identified
4.1.1 Physical Environment
Significant or large -scale changes in the physical environment are not anticipated in the next ten
years.
Changes to existing municipal wells that provide water for the City are not anticipated in the next
ten years. As discussed in the Water Supply and Distribution Plan (Bonestroo, 2008), it is considered
likely that the City will construct one additional water supply well in the North Well Field by about
2020. It is anticipated that the new well would be constructed in the Jordan Sandstone aquifer. While
operation of a new municipal water supply well in the North Well Field may change the boundaries
of the DWSMA associated with the well field it would likely not affect the management strategies
presented in this Plan.
The City will work with the other local governmental units whose jurisdictions overlap the DWSMAs
to the extent practicable to manage the portions of the DWSMAs that fall within their jurisdictional
boundaries.
4.1.2 Land Use
Land within the City of Eagan, including within the DWSMAs, is essentially fully developed with
approximately 95% of the land in Eagan being developed (Eagan, 2010). Redevelopment of areas
will occur in the future. A current (2010) land use map and a projected land use map for 2030 are
shown on Figures 2 and 3, respectively. Comparison of the current land use with the projected year
2030 land use indicates that, in general, the few undeveloped properties within the DWSMAs are
anticipated to be developed. City staff anticipate that the small area of agricultural land use currently
in the DWSMAs will be developed and put to other uses in the next few years. Projected future land
uses in the DWSMAs are currently present within the DWSMAs. Therefore, all land uses anticipated
during the next ten years within the DWSMAs are currently present in the area covered by this Plan.
P:\Mpls\23 MN \19 \23191155 Eagan Wellhead Protection Plan \WorkFiles\Part 2 WHPP \DRAFT Eagan Part 2 WHPP_7- 3- 14.docx 10
As a result, adjustments in the land use within the DWSMAs such as those projected for the year
2030 will be adequately addressed by the management strategies put forth in this Plan.
4.1.3 Surface Water
There are surface water bodies and wetlands within the DWSMAs. Eagan has in place plans (see
Bonestroo, 2007a; b), ordinances, and zoning to protect these surface water bodies and wetlands, as
well as to manage stormwater within the City. Eagan's management of surface water bodies,
wetlands, and stormwater is not expected to adversely affect the management strategies for the Eagan
DWSMAs. Rather, the City's management of surface water bodies, wetlands, and stormwater is
consistent with the objectives of this Plan. Therefore, the City believes that additional management
actions related to surface water, wetlands, or stormwater in this Plan are not necessary.
The City is not aware of any plans to alter the course or location of any surface water bodies
currently present within the DWSMAs in the next M years.
4.1.4 Groundwater
As discussed above, the City currently provides water to residents of Eagan and a portion of Inver
Grove Heights. The City anticipates continuing to supply water to a portion of Inver Grove Heights
into the future.
As discussed in the 2030 Comprehensive Plan Update (Eagan, 2010), Eagan is nearly fully developed
but future increases in population are anticipated. As the population of Eagan grows water demand
in the City will grow as well. As discussed in the Water Supply and Distribution Plan ( Bonestroo,
2008), it is considered likely that the City will construct one additional water supply well in the
North Well Field 'by :about 2020 to., neet increased water demand. It is anticipated that the new well
would be constructed in the Jordan :Sandstone aquifer.
City staff inspect the treatment plants and municipal wells regularly. The MDH inspects all treatment
facilities and wells annually. This inspection includes sampling of all wells to insure they comply
with applicable regulatory standards. In addition, Eagan has a SCADA system that continuously
measures the volume of water pumped from a well, the instantaneous pumping rate for each well, and
the water level (static or pumping) in each well. The SCADA system can produce daily reports
summarizing the data recorded for each of the municipal wells.
Long term groundwater level data for the Jordan Sandstone aquifer have been collected from an
MDNR observation well (Observation Well 19030; Unique No. 205809) in the northeastern portion
P: \Mpls\23 MN \l9 \23191155 Eagan Wellhead Protection Plan \WorkFiles\Part 2 WHPP \DRAFT Eagan Part 2 WHPP_7- 3- 14.docx I I
of Eagan since 1977. The data indicates that potentiometric levels in the Jordan Sandstone aquifer
fluctuate seasonally. In addition, over the entire data record (August 1977 — March 2013) the
potentiometric level in the Jordan Sandstone aquifer measured in the MDNR observation well shows
a declining trend. However, during the period 2008 to 2013 there is no clear decreasing trend in the
water level data. The MDNR has also collected potentiometric level data for the Mt. Simon
Sandstone aquifer since July 2011 from an observation well near Lebanon Hills Regional Park
(Observation Well 19086; Unique No. 783608). The available data from this well indicates that the
potentiometric level in the Mt. Simon Sandstone does undergo seasonal fluctuation but the dataset
does not cover a sufficiently long time period to allow characterization of any long term
potentiometric surface trends in the Mt. Simon Sandstone aquifer.
The City supports water conservation. The City has put in place permanent,;year -round outdoor water
usage rules which restrict water usage to either odd or even days of the month, depending on the
property address. Eagan has also adopted a tiered water:rate structure to encourage users to conserve
water. In addition, Chapter 3 of the City Code requires that leaking water lines be repaired within 24
hours of identification of the leak. In all new ,construction, the use of low -flow water conserving
toilets and fixtures is required. Information on water conservation is available via the City's website.
For new developments, Eagan requires proof of proper closure of unused wells on the property.
As shown in Table 4 and on Figure 4, there are 42 high capacity wells within one mile of the Eagan
DWSMAs (including the Eagan municipal wells). ;(A high capacity well is a well that pumps 10,000
or more gallons per day or 1,000,000 or more gallons per year.) In the next ten years it is possible
that new business or industrial developments in or near Eagan may seek to construct privately -owned
high capacity wells completed in one of the source water aquifers. Depending on their location, such
wells could potentially: affect the DWSMAs. In addition to managing to the extent possible
installation of any new high capacity wells in Eagan, the City will work with the Cities of Apple
Valley and Rosemount, to the extent feasible and practicable, to manage the installation of any new
high capacity water supply wells in one of the source water aquifers within or near the portion of the
South Well Field DWSMA that extends into each of these other municipalities. The City of Eagan
currently does not know of any proposed developments that include plans for privately -owned high
capacity wells within the DWSMAs.
P: \Mpls\23 MN \19 \23191155 Eagan Wellhead Protection Plan\WorkFiles\Part 2 WHPP \DRAF"T Eagan Part 2 WHPP_7- 3- 14,docx 12
Beyond the projected addition of one well to the Eagan municipal water supply system, the City is
not aware of any plans for significant changes regarding groundwater use within the DWSMAs that
are anticipated to occur within the next ten years.
4.2 Impact of Changes
4.2.1 Water Use
In the coming years, the City's population and water demand are anticipated to increase. Eagan's
Water Supply Plan (Eagan, 2007) conservatively projects water use of approximately 4.0 billion
gallons in the year 2020. Based on the information in the City's Water `Supply Plan and water use
reported to the MDNR in 2010, water use is projected to increase approximately 31% between 2010
and 2020. Based on the projected increase in water demand, it is likely that the City will need to
install one new municipal water supply well in the next ten years.
As noted above, Eagan has a water conservation program that includes a tiered water rate structure
and year -round odd /even outdoor water use restrictions.
The construction and operation of one or more additional high capacity wells in or near the Eagan
DWSMAs or significant changes in current groundwater appropriations for existing wells in the area
could affect the source water aquifers and local water supplies. Such changes could also potentially
change the boundaries of the WHPAs,and DWSMAs delineated for the existing City of Eagan wells.
Increased pumpage from the source water aquifers in the vicinity of Eagan could result in a lowering
of static water levels in the City of Eagan wells if the pumping exceeds the recharge to the aquifers.
The City of Eagan will work with the MDH Source Water Protection Unit to identify any proposed
high capacity wells and provide interaction with the proposed well owner(s) to minimize problems.
4.2.2 Influence of :Existing Water and Land Government Programs and
Regulations
Chapter 3 of the Eagan City Code addresses the public water supply. A copy of the Eagan City Code
is available from the Wellhead Protection Manager or on the Internet at the following location:
http / /li brary.municode.coin/index. aspx ?cli entld= 13070.
Chapter 3 of the City Code specifies that if property owners or occupants do not repair a leaking
water service pipe within 24 hours after of receiving oral or written notice of the presence of a leak
the water service to the property may be shut off until the leaking pipe has been repaired.
The City has put in place a year- round, odd -even restriction on outdoor water usage. That is, outdoor
water usage is allowed at even - numbered addresses on even - numbered days and at odd - numbered
P: \Mpls\23 MN \19 \23191155 Eagan Wellhead Protection Plan \WorkFiles \Part 2 WHPP \DRAFT Eagan Part 2 WHPP_7- 3- 14.docx 13
addresses on odd - numbered days. There is a three week exception from the outdoor water use
restrictions for newly seeded or sodded lawns and new landscaping. The aim of this restriction is to
even out water usage during peak demand times in the City.
Eagan has a tiered water rate structure in which a higher rate is charged to the consumer for water
usage above the consumer's winter usage. The aim of the tiered rate structure is to give the consumer
an incentive for minimizing their water usage, particularly during the warmer months of the year
when demand is generally higher.
Chapter 4, Section 4.04 of the Eagan City Code addresses individual sewage treatment systems
(ISTS). The City Code adopts the State statutes and rules regarding.ISTS, except as specified in the
Code, and requires a property owner to get a permit from the City before constructing, replacing,
extending, or repairing an ISTS.
Chapter 4, Section 4.30 subd. 5.H of the City Code requires written approval from the City Council
for installation of a well larger than 4- inches in diameter anywhere within the City.
Stormwater management in the City is addressed in Eagan's Stormwater Management Plan
(Bonestroo, 2007b) and Water Quality and Wetland Management Plan (Bonestroo, 2007a). The City
believes that their existing stormwater management program is sufficient to address stormwater
within the DWSMAs.
In those portions of the South Well Field DWSMA that are outside of the Eagan city limits, the City
must rely on other governmental units for regulations that address issues that may impact the source
water aquifers, Therefore, Apple Valley and Rosemount city ordinances; Dakota County ordinances,
Dakota County Well Management Program, the MDNR Waters Appropriations Permitting Program,
the State of Minnesota Well Management and Drinking Water Supply Programs; The U.S. EPA's
program for regulation of Class V wells; and the MPCA's regulation of hazardous waste generators
and oversight of contaminant release response, and permitting /regulation program for operation of
storage tanks will be relied upon for assistance in regulating the installation of new wells, water
appropriation permitting, the proper sealing /abandonment of existing wells, and regulation of
potential contaminant sources that could potentially affect drinking water quality in the City. The
City believes that the current level of regulations and oversight are adequate to address these issues.
Land use control and land activities outside of the City are governed by the local unit of government
with jurisdiction in a particular area. This Plan has been developed to protect the interests of the City
of Eagan and, to the extent practicable, to have no adverse effect on the plans and strategies
P:\Mpls\23 MN \19 \23191155 Eagan Wellhead Protection Plan \WorkFiles\Part 2 WHPP \DRAFT Eagan Part 2 WHPP_7- 3- 14.docx 14
developed for adjacent communities. The Metropolitan Council jurisdiction overlaps both of Eagan's
DWSMAs. The North Well Field DWSMA is overlapped by the jurisdictions of the Lower Minnesota
River Watershed District and the Gun Club Lake Watershed Management Organization. The South
Well Field DWSMA extends into Apple Valley and Rosemount. In addition, the South Well Field
DWSMA is overlapped by jurisdictions of the Gun Club Lake Watershed Management Organization
and the Vermillion River Watershed Joint Powers Organization. This Plan will be provided to these
other governmental units as a resource for future land development planning. Local ordinances and
plans related to land use will be relied upon for the management of the portion of Eagan's DWSMAs
that extends into Apple Valley and Rosemount. The Wellhead Protection Manager will, to the extent
feasible and practicable, communicate the goals and objectives of this Plan to the other local
governmental units whose jurisdictions overlap the Eagan DWSMAs.
The City will continue to rely on Federal, State, County, and local agencies and regulations and
programs to handle issues outside of the City's boundaries regarding water conservation, water
appropriations, well installation and sealing, septic systems, and storm and sanitary sewer extensions.
The City will comply, as necessary, with the requirements of the MPCA's current Stormwater
Pollution Prevention Program (SWPPP) and the current National Pollutant Discharge Elimination
System (NPDES) program to regulate the quality and quantity of stormwater discharge. These
programs have proven to be effective: City staff will cooperate with these agencies if any issues
arise.
4.2.3 Administrative., Technical, and Financial Considerations
Eagan will have adequate resources available to protect the public water supply's source water
aquifers. In general, funds to support ongoing wellhead and source water protection efforts will come
from the City's Public Utilities Enterprise Fund. The City may also submit grant applications to the
Minnesota Department of Health's Source Water Protection Grant Program for additional funds for
source water protection programs. Wellhead and source water protection activities will be evaluated
at least every two years and any changes in the focus of the tasks will also be evaluated to determine
if additional funding will be necessary to accommodate the changes.
For this Plan to be effective, the City will need to continue making the public aware of the issues
affecting its water supply through public educational programs. Therefore, a significant portion of
the wellhead and source water protection actions will include public education.
P: \Mpls\23 MN \19 \23191155 Eagan Wellhead Protection Plan \WorkFiles\Part 2 WHPP \DRAFT Eagan Part 2 WHPP_7- 3- 14.doex 15
Routine administrative duties will be directed or perfonned by the Wellhead Protection Manager.
Specific tasks and strategies will be performed by the Wellhead Protection Manager or delegated by
the Manager to City staff or outside resources.
Based on current population projections and existing pumping capacity, the City anticipates installing
one new water supply well in the next ten years. The City does not anticipate adding additional
storage reservoirs or treatment facilities in the next ten years.. If new high capacity wells are installed
in the vicinity of the Eagan DWSMAs, the City will periodically evaluate, with the assistance of their
Wellhead Protection Consultant and, perhaps, the MDH, what effect, if any, the new wells have on
the boundaries of the Eagan DWSMAs.
Eagan will work, to the extent practicable, with the other local governmental units whose
jurisdictions overlap the Eagan DWSMAs to manage the portion of the DWSMAs within each of
these jurisdictions.

5.0 Issues, Problems, and Opportunities
In accordance with Minnesota Rules chapter 4720.5230, this section discusses issues, problems, and
opportunities related to land use, comments from local units of government and the general public,
the data elements and local, state, and federal programs and regulations.
5.1 Land Use Issues, Problems, and Opportunities
5.1.1 Source Water Aquifer
As shown on Figure 1, the aquifer vulnerability classification in the Eagan DWSMAs ranges from
Low to High. In the North Well Field DWSMA the aquifer vulnerability in the majority of the area is
classified as High. In the South Well Field DWSMA the areas of Low, Moderate, and High aquifer
vulnerability are more nearly equivalent than in the North Well Field DWSMA, Therefore, land use
issues, problems and opportunities must be assessed to determine what, if any, potential affect they
may have on the management of the municipal wells and the Eagan DWSMAs.
The City anticipates installing one new municipal well in the next ten years. Installation of additional
high capacity wells within or near the Eagan DWSMAs, :either by Eagan or others (either municipal
wells or private wells), could produce changes in ;the groundwater flow system which could result in
changes to the shape and extent of the WHPAs and DWSMAs delineated for this Plan. The City will
work with the Wellhead Protection Consultant and MDH to amend this Plan as necessary if and when
additional high capacity wells are installed within or near the DWSMAs.
As discussed elsewhere in this Plan, potential sources of contamination that could affect the source
water aquifer were identified during the PCSI. These potential contaminant sources include wells,
storage tanks, hazardous waste generators, dump and spill sites, chemical storage sites, ISTS, and
potential Class V well locations. A few of the potential contaminant sources identified in the
DWSMAs are located within the Inner Wellhead Management Zones around the Eagan wells. A few
of the identified potential contaminant source locations fall in or near the Emergency Management
Zones (EMZs) around the municipal wells. The entities in the various potential contaminant source
categories are regulated by County or State programs. The lack of City jurisdiction over the potential
contaminant source entities poses a potential problem for protection of the source water aquifer.
However, the jurisdictional issues also provide the City of Eagan with an opportunity to develop
working relationships with County and State agencies that regulate the potential contaminant source
P: \Mpls\23 MN \19 \23191155 Eagan Wellhead Protection Plan \WorkFiles \Part 2 WHPP \DRAFT Eagan Part 2 WHPP_7- 3- 14.docx 17
entities. Therefore, the City will work with the appropriate County and State programs, to the extent
practicable, to address the potential contaminant sources within the DWSMAs.
Eagan has a Comprehensive Plan (Eagan, 20 10) in place that includes policies for managing growth
of the City. Policies identified in the Comprehensive Plan will help protect the City's source water
aquifer. Eagan will also discuss with the Cities of Apple Valley and Rosemount, to the extent
practicable, the development of land management policies that will protect the source water aquifer
in the portion of the South Well Field DWSMA that extends into these cities.
5.1.2 Groundwater Quality
Eagan has always placed a high priority on the safety of the municipal water supply system. To
prevent the possibility of unauthorized people gaining access to the City's wells, Eagan strictly limits
access to their municipal wells and associated infrastructure to the City's Public Works staff.
As discussed in Appendix C, groundwater pumped from the source water aquifers is currently free of
pathogens and disease - causing organisms and meets or exceeds the water quality requirements of the
Federal Safe Drinking Water Act.
The water pumped by the municipal wells is classified as "hard" and the City does treat the water to
prevent precipitation of iron and manganese in the; distribution system.
5.1.3 DWSMAs
Current land uses within the.DWSMA that cover more than 1% of the area in the DWSMAs include
residential uses;, parks /recreational /preserve uses, industrial and utility uses, commercial uses,
undeveloped land, and transportation corridors. Agricultural land uses are found in less than I% of
the area encompassed by the DWSMAs (Appendix C).
As shown Table 1, just over half of the Eagan municipal wells open to the Jordan Sandstone aquifer
have been classified as being vulnerable to contamination while the remainder of the municipal wells
open to the Jordan Sandstone as well as the wells open to the Mt. Simon Sandstone aquifer have been
classified as not vulnerable to contamination. The uppermost source water aquifer in the Eagan
DWSMAs has also been classified as vulnerable to contamination, although the vulnerability
classification varies across the DWSMAs. It was not necessary to include a surface water
contribution area in the delineation of the Eagan DWSMAs (Barr, 2012). While current and future
land use could potentially affect the management strategies for portions of the Eagan DWSMAs, no
Pr\Mpls\23 MN \19\23191155 Eagan Wellhead Protection Plan \WorkFiles \Part 2 WHPP \DRAFT Eagan Part 2 WHPP_7- 3- 14.docx 18
issues, problems, or opportunities, other than the potential contaminant source locations previously
discussed have been identified regarding land uses in the DWSMAs.
As discussed elsewhere in this Plan, both DWSMAs are overlapped by other jurisdictions and
portions of the South Well Field DWSMA extend beyond the Eagan city limits into Apple Valley and
Rosemount. Thus, Eagan does not have jurisdiction over the entire South Well Field DWSMA.
Therefore, Eagan will work, to the extent practicable, with Apple Valley and Rosemount to establish
requirements regarding management of the portions of the South Well Field DWSMA within their
jurisdictions.
Information gathered for this Plan provides the City with the basis for tracking potential contaminant
sources within the DWSMAs. Thus, the City has an opportunity to catalogand track potential
contaminant sources and stay informed of land use changes or potential future threats to the source
water aquifer.
5.2 Issues, Problems, and Opportunities Disclosed at Public
Meetings and in Written Comments
At the beginning of the development of this Plan, the City of Eagan sent a notification to other local
units of government of its intention to prepare a wellhead protection plan amendment. The MDH
approved Part 1 of the Plan in November 2012 (MDH 2012). As required by the Wellhead
Protection Rules, Eagan subsequently sent information on the WHPAs, DWSMAs, and aquifer and
well vulnerability to the local units of government whose jurisdictions overlap some portion of the
Eagan DWSMAs:
The City of Eagan held an open house on December 11, 2012 and a Public Information Meeting on
December 18, 2012 to receive comments on the Part 1 Wellhead Protection Plan amendment from the
general public. The local units of government whose jurisdictions overlap the DWSMAs were
notified of the Public Information Meeting. To date, the City has not received any communications of
issues, problems, or opportunities related to the wellhead protection planning process.
As required by the Wellhead Protection Rules, the City provided local units of government whose
jurisdictions overlap the DWSMAs a copy of the draft Part 2 Wellhead Protection Plan.
P: \Mpls\23 MN \19 \23191155 Eagan Wellhead Protection Plan \WorkFiles\Part 2 WHPP \DRAFT Eagan Part 2 WI- IPP_7- 3- 14.doex 19
The City held a Public Hearing on the WHPP on TO BE DETERMINED. The local units of
government whose jurisdictions overlap the DWSMA were notified of the tine, date, and place for
the Public Hearing.
5.3 Issues, Problems, and Opportunities Related to the Data
Elements
Beginning with the delineation of the WHPAs (i.e., Part 1 of this Plan) and continuing in this
document, the required data elements identified by the MDH have been addressed. As discussed in
Appendix C, available local and regional information was used in compiling and assessing the data
elements. The City intends to continue collecting data from the municipal wells and other applicable
information from public data sources, as it becomes available, during the next ten years. At a
minimum, this Plan will be revised /updated every 10 years, as required by the Wellhead Protection
Rules. Each time this Plan is revised /updated the most recent and accurate data available will be
used.
5.4 Issues, Problems, and Opportunities Related to Local, State,
and Federal Programs and Regulations
State and local units of government currently enforce land use ordinances, zoning laws, sewer
ordinances, well permitting regulations, stormwater regulations, storage tank regulations, hazardous
waste generator regulations,, spill site remediation regulations, and groundwater appropriation permit
regulations. The City will work with the Cities of Apple Valley and Rosemount to ensure proper
management of the portion of the South Well Field DWSMA that extends into these cities. The City
will work to promote the use =of best management practices for potential contaminant source
properties within :the DWSMAs. It is anticipated that local issues will be adequately addressed
through these existing processes and adoption of best management practices.
Neighboring cities whose jurisdictions overlap Eagan's South Well Field DWSMA use the same
source water aquifers as Eagan for their municipal water supplies. Implementation of this WHPP
will provide the City with the opportunity to work with the neighboring cities whose jurisdictions
overlap the southern DWSMA to cooperatively manage their shared source water resource.

6.0 Wellhead Protection Goals
In accordance with Minnesota Rules chapter 4720.5240, this section discusses the goals for present
and future water use and land use in the DWSMAs to provide a framework for Plan objectives and
related actions.
Goals presented in this section were selected based on the information gathered and compiled from
the data elements, delineations of the WHPAs and DWSMAs, results of the vulnerability
assessments, results of the PCSI, evaluation of potential for changes in land and water uses,
identified issues, problems, and opportunities, and evaluation of this information.
Through the years the City has worked to meet water demands with a sufficient and safe water
supply. Eagan intends to continue providing a safe water supply to its residents ;and businesses and
other customers into the future by implementing this Plan.
Some of the Eagan municipal wells have been classified by the MDH as vulnerable to contamination
from the surface. The goals and objectives of this Plan focus on reducing the potential contaminant
pathways to the source water aquifer that may be provided by private wells, educating potential
contaminant source property owners.,;and water supply users regarding the City's wellhead protection
program and what they can do to help maintain the quality of the City's drinking water supply and
working with the Cities of Apple Valley and Rosemount to ensure, to the extent possible, proper
management of the portions of the South Well Field DWSMA that extend into these cities.
Eagan has identified the following.goals for implementation of this Plan:
• The City will work to maintain or improve the current level of water quality so that the
municipal water supply will continue to meet or exceed all applicable state and federal water
quality standards.
Since the South Well Field DWSMA extends into surrounding cities, the City of Eagan will,
to the extent possible and practicable, work with the surrounding cities with the goal of
protecting the source water aquifers.
• The City will provide information and promote activities that protect the City's source water
aquifers. This will result in increased public awareness of the Wellhead and Source Water

Protection Program and groundwater- related issues and include activities to manage the
identified potential contaminant source properties within the DWSMAs.
® The City will continue to compile data from their wells and available public sources to
support future wellhead and source water protection efforts.

7.0 Objectives and Plans of Action
In accordance with Minnesota Rules chapter 4720.5250, this section discusses the objectives and
plans of action to goals for Eagan's Wellhead and Source Water Protection Program.
7.1 Establishing Priorities
The uppermost source water aquifer that supplies much of the groundwater for Eagan's public water
supply has been classified as vulnerable to contamination. Potential contaminant sources within the
DWSMAs have been determined to consist of storage tanks sites, hazardous waste generators, dump
and spill sites, ISTS, chemical storage sites, potential Class V well locations, and wells. Privately
owned wells within the DWSMAs could potentially provide a pathway for contaminants to reach the
source water aquifers if they were not properly constructed, are not properly maintained, or are not
properly sealed when no longer in use.
Aquifer vulnerability varies from Low to High in the Eagan DWSMAs. Addressing potential
contaminant sources in areas where aquifer vulnerability is classified as High should be given a high
priority. In addition, addressing privately owned wells that extend into or through the source water
aquifers should also be given a high priority. Priorities assigned to the various potential contaminant
source categories are summarized in'Table 3.
The City has identified the objectives and corresponding actions described in the following sections
for accomplishing the Wellhead andsource water protection goals discussed above in Section 6. The
goals for the City of Eagan Wellhead and,Source Water Protection Program identified in Section 6 of
this Plan will be achieved through the following management actions:
• Well management
1. Encouraging.the proper sealing of all unused wells within the DWSMAs.
2. Encouraging proper management of existing wells with in the DWSMAs.
3. Evaluating the need for a new ordinance regarding installation of wells in the City.
• Potential contaminant source properties
1. Encourage proper handling of chemicals /wastes.
2. Encourage proper operation of storage tanks.
3. Removal of dump materials from within and near the IWMZ for Eagan Wells 8 and 9.
4. Periodically obtain information on the status of various permits associated with
potential contaminant sources from the regulating agencies to allow timely
P:\Mpls\23 MN \19 \23191155 Eagan Wellhead Protection Plan \WorkFiles\Part 2 WHPP \DRAFT Eagan Part 2 WHPP_7- 3- 14.docx 23
recognition of potential problems arising at a particular property that could affect the
municipal water supply.
• Public education
1. Providing the public with information regarding the water quality of the City's
drinking water.
2. Improving public awareness and understanding of the City's Wellhead Protection
Program.
Land use management
1. Inclusion of wellhead and source water protection in the City's planning process.
Continued data collection
1. Recording static and pumping water levels in the Eagan' municipal wells.
2. Compilation of additional local geologic and hydrogeologic -data as it becomes
available from public sources.
3. Using new geologic /hydrogeologic data to update the groundwater flow model used
in the delineation of the WHPA.
4. Periodic compilation of updated information on potential contaminant sources within
the DWSMA.
7.2 Well Management
The well management objectives outlined in this section consist of promoting the proper sealing of
any unused, unmaintained, damaged, or abandoned wells and promoting proper management of
active wells within the DWSMAs, which will include working with other cities within the South
Well Field DWSMA to accomplish the objectives.
7.2.1 Distribution of Well Operation and Maintenance Information
The MDH has developed a.han.dbook of information on proper well construction, operation, and
maintenance titled "The Well Owner's Handbook ". This handbook is available on the MDH website.
The City will provide the handbook information to all owners of active wells within the DWSMAs.
To accomplish this, a link to the MDH website page where the handbook can be found will be added
to the City's website. The City will also notify well owners within the DWSMAs via mail that the
information is available through the City's website. The cities of Apple Valley and Rosemount will
be asked to provide the handbook information to any new well owners that take up residence in the
portion of the South Well Field DWSMA that falls within their jurisdictions. Eagan staff will track
P:\Mpls\23 MN \19 \23191155 Eagan Wellhead Protection Plan \WorkFiles\Part 2 WHPP \DRAFT Eagan Part 2 WHPP_7- 3- 14.docx 24

released contaminants are kept from entering the environment and impacting the municipal water
supply.
Success criterion: Emergency responder awareness of the City's DWSMAs.
7.3.9 Agriculture Land Use
As shown on Figure 3, there are two small areas of agricultural land use in the North DWSMA. One
area is located to the east of Well 6 and almost entirely within the ERZ for the well. The other area of
agricultural land use is located approximately 0.3 miles east of Well 20 and outside the ERZ for the
well. Since no evidence of agricultural chemicals has been identified in water samples from Wells 6

8.0 Evaluation Proaram
Per Minnesota Rule 4720.5270, the progress in implementing a WHPP must be evaluated routinely to
determine the effectiveness of the WHPP in terms of accomplishment of goals. Monitoring and
evaluation measures to ensure effectiveness of the management strategies are detailed below.
Evaluation activities discussed in this WHPP include the following:
Track the implementation of the objectives, activities, and tasks discussed above in
Section 7.0.
• Determine the effectiveness of specific management strategies for the protection of the Eagan
municipal water supply.
• Identify possible changes to the management strategies to improve overall effectiveness.
• Determine the adequacy of financial resources and staff availability to perform and
implement the management strategies .planned each year.
• Update the WHPP if new wells are added to the municipal water supply system.
The City of Eagan will continue to cooperate with the MDH in the annual monitoring of the City's
municipal water supply to determine if the management strategies presented in this WHPP are having
a positive effect on water quality and to identify any water quality problems that may arise and need
to be addressed.
The Eagan Wellhead Protection Manager will provide a report to the City Council every two years
summarizing the progress in implementing the management strategies and objectives in this WHPP.
In addition, the results of the water quality monitoring of the City's municipal water supply will be
presented to the City Council annually. The evaluation report will be completed using the MDH
Wellhead Protection Program Evaluation form (Appendix E). The City will retain a copy of the
report in its Wellhead Protection file and send a copy of the report to the MDH Source Water
Protection Unit in St. Paul. The intent of the bi- annual reports is to compile a comprehensive review
of the implementation of the source water management strategies for use when the City updates or
revises this WHPP. As specified by the Wellhead Protection Rules, this WHPP will be updated a
minimum of every 10 years, or more often as required due to changes to the municipal water supply
system.

9.0 Alternative Water Supply Contingency Strate
The purpose of a contingency plan is to establish, provide, and keep updated certain emergency
response procedures and information for the public water supply, which may become vital in the
event of a partial or total loss of public water supply services as a result of natural disaster, chemical
contamination, civil disorder, or human- caused disruptions.
The Eagan emergency and water conservation plans are presented in The City's Water Supply Plan
(Eagan, 2007). The Water Supply Plan is included as an appendix in the Eagan Water Supply and
Distribution Plan (Bonestroo, 2008). As required, the Water Supply Plan was submitted to the
MDNR Division of Waters — Appropriation Permit Program and the Metropolitan Council for review
and approval. The plan was approved in November 2007. The Water Supply Plan was adopted by
the City Council in January 2008. A copy of the Water Supply Plan is presented'in Appendix F.

Table 3
Summary of Potential Sources of Contaminants and Assigned Management Priority
ERZ Emergency Response Zone: defined as portion of the W HPA within the 1 -year groundwater time of travel area.
IWMZ Inner Wellhead Management Zone: -defined in MR4720.5100 subpart19 as the area within 200 feet of a public water
supply well.
HVZ High aquifer vulnerability zone
MVZ Moderate aquifer vulnerability zone
LVZ Low aquifer vulnerability zone
Total number does not: include' the Eagan Municipal Wells.
2 Inventoried in only High aquifer vulnerability zones.
3 Number respresents a former storage tank or LUST that has been removed (and site is closed if a LUST).
4 One area is where demolition debris was placed that will be further evaluated. The second area is an area where fill was
placed beneath County Highway'31
under a permit issued by Dakota County. No further evaluation of this second area will be done.
5 Hazardous waste generator no longer at the location or the location is a City of Eagan facility
6 Tank has been removed so priority is low.
Minimal quantity spilled in 1995. Spill was addressed.

A. Planned Development Amendment - Spire Federal Credit Union
Action To Be Considered:
To approve a Planned Development Amendment to allow site modifications on property
located at 1250 -1252 Yankee Doodle Road, subject to the conditions listed in the APC
minutes.
Required Vote for Approval: At least three votes
Facts:
The parcel is zoned Planned Development (PD) and surrounded by retail and
office.
➢ The 1.51 -acre site contains a two -story office building constructed in 1992. The
site has right -of -way on three sides and has two driveway accesses.
➢ A condition of approval includes that the building be readdressed, as access is
from Yankee Place and Town Centre Drive, to assist emergency responders.
➢ The property consists of two separate parcels, splitting the lot and building,
which is due to school district boundaries.
➢ Modifications to the site and building include grading, landscaping, building
materials and signage.
➢ Grading improvements will assist with elimination of water infiltration into the
building.
➢ Landscaping improvements will remove overgrown and poor quality trees,
replacing them with a variety of over /understory and foundation plantings.
➢ The glass block will be removed from the building exterior and replaced with
aluminum frames and metal composite panels. This will bring the building closer
into compliance with new construction standards.
➢ Signage updates include modifying the pylon sign to include an electronic
message center, building signage, directional signage and a monument sign.
➢ The Advisory Planning Commission held a public hearing on September 23, 2014
and did recommend approval.
Issues:
➢ A condition of approval includes removal of the monument sign. Only properties
with freeway frontage are eligible for two freestanding signs (pylon and
monument).

PLANNING REPORT
CITY OF EAGAN
REPORT DATE: September 18, 2014
APPLICANT: Spire Federal Credit Union
PROPERTY OWNER: Same
REQUEST: Planned Development Amendment
LOCATION: 1250 -1252 Yankee Doodle Road
CASE: 15- PA- 07 -08 -14
HEARING DATE: September 23, 2014
APPLICATION DATE: Aug. 20, 2014
PREPARED BY: Sarah Thomas
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: SA /OS, Special Area /Office Service
ZONING: PD, Planned Development
SUMMARY OF REQUEST
The applicant is requesting approval of a Planned Development Amendment for site
modifications at 1250 Yankee Doodle Road legally described as Lot 1, Block 1, Town Centre
100 Tenth Addition.
AUTHORITY FOR REVIEW
Chapter 11, Section 11.50, Subdivision 5 states, in part,
1. The provisions of this chapter may be amended by the majority vote of the council, except
that amendments changing the boundaries of any district or changing the regulations of any
district may only be made by an affirmative vote of two - thirds of all members of the council.
2. The Council shall not rezone any land in any zoning district or make any other proposed
amendment to this chapter without first having referred it to the planning commission for its
consideration and recommendation.
BACKGROUND/HISTORY
This property is within the Town Centre 100 development. The two -story building was
constructed in 1992. A Planned Development Amendment for a portion of the ground level was
approved for a retail use (Verizon Wireless) in 2008, which included site and exterior building
modifications. Verizon did not end up leasing the space and the improvements were never made.
A PD Amendment for the property to revert back to the original office use, and eliminate the
requirement to do the site and building modifications, was approved in 2009.
The property has recently sold to a financial institution that would like to update the building and
property.
Planning Report — Spire Credit Union
September 23, 2014
Page 2
EXISTING CONDITIONS
The 1.51 acre site is developed with a two -story office building. This property consists of two
separate parcels. The lot and building are split between the two parcels which is due to the
property being located in two separate school districts; therefore, the City will not require the lots
to be replatted into one parcel.
Access to the site is provided from two driveways, Town Centre Drive and Yankee Place;
however, the property is addressed off of Yankee Doodle Road. This creates confusion and
difficulty for emergency responders. Therefore, the applicant should change the address based
upon actual access to the property. Also, to clarify tenant location for emergency responders, the
building owner should provide individual suite numbers for each tenant.
The existing parking lot and building were constructed with the original development of the site.
As were the pylon sign located at the corner of Yankee Doodle Road and Yankee Place and the
monument sign near the driveway onto Town Centre Drive.
SURROUNDING USES
The site is surrounded by commercial /retail /office uses all zoned Planned Development and
guided Special Area.
EVALUATION OF REQUEST
Description of Proposal — According to the applicant's narrative, "In addition to the credit
union's proposed tenant buildout of the interior of the building, they would also like to upgrade
the exterior image and conditions of the site and facility ... The goal is to have these upgrades
done this year."
The improvements include site grading updates to address water infiltration into the building;
this improvement will disturb existing landscaping and trees. As such, existing landscaping will
be replaced throughout the site as much of it was allowed to become overgrown and it can
interfere with security cameras, according to the Applicant. Additionally, some of the building
exterior will be replaced by removing the glass block and replacing it with clear anodized
aluminum frames that match the existing aluminum frames. The glass block on the drive up
canopy will be removed and the canopy will be remodeled to accommodate wider lanes and to
have a higher clearance. A band of silver composite metal panels around the perimeter of the
building, separating the upper and lower level windows will be added as well as blue composite
metal panels at the main building entrance and the back stair tower. This is to break up the
building mass and identify the main building entrance in a color to match the corporate logo
colors.
The applicant is seeking approval of an upgrade to the existing pylon sign. While the sign
location would remain the same, they would like to add an electronic message center and update
the sign to match the new and existing building materials. The applicant is also seeking approval
of an upgrade to the existing monument sign. This sign would also remain in the same location
but would be updated in design. In all, proposed site signage includes the following: pylon sign
Planning Report — Spire Credit Union
September 23, 2014
Paae 3
(freestanding), building signage on east and south wall, directional signage in five locations near
the drive through, and a monument sign (freestanding) off of Town Centre Drive. Only
properties with freeway frontage are allowed both a pylon sign and a monument sign; staff has
been unable to find any specific City Council approval for the monument sign. Policy makers
should consider the appropriateness of the monument sign and whether plans should be revised
to eliminate the monument sign.
Compatibility with Surrounding Area — The credit union use is the same use as has historically
occurred on the site, and remains compatible with the surrounding area, which consists of a mix
of office /service and retail commercial uses. Currently there are no additional tenants; however,
future office tenants could occupy space in the building.
Evaluation — The existing building does not meet required setbacks from Yankee Doodle Road
which is acknowledged as an existing site condition.
Site Plan — The Site Plan identifies parking lot improvements currently underway via a Zoning
Permit. This work includes replacement of asphalt pavement, curbs and sidewalks to better align
with the renovation of the main entrance.
Landscaping — The Landscape Plan identifies the removal of 16 trees. The key provides an
inventory of the type, condition and size of each tree to be removed. These trees include
Crabapple, Spruce, Ash, Maple and Linden ranging from good to poor condition. The spruce
trees reach a height of 35 feet and the deciduous, 16 inches in diameter. Two spruce and nine
ash trees will remain on the property.
New shade trees consist of Oak, Maple and Elm (8). Pine and Spruce (6) trees are proposed as
well. A variety of shrubs and perennials are located throughout the site, including at the building
foundation and around the freestanding signs. The pylon sign should be located on the plan to
better depict the sign base plantings. Shrub heights vary as proposed and should be a minimum
of three feet in height at time of planting, per City Code.
Building Materials — Presently, the exterior building materials consist of brick, glass block and
aluminum. As proposed, the glass block would be removed and metal panels would be added to
the building. Given this is an existing building, any modifications should bring the site closer
into compliance with new construction requirements.
The Zoning Ordinance requires newly constructed buildings in the LB zoning district to meet the
following exterior finish materials standards. The building must utilize at least two different
Class I materials (brick, glass, natural stone, architectural metal panels) comprising at least 65 %
of the building. Up to 35% of the building may be Class lI or Class III (specialty concrete block,
masonry stucco, manufactured stone — Class Il; EIFS, precast concrete, Class I1I) or Class IV
materials (smooth concrete or scored concrete block, tip up panels). The maximum amount of
Class IV material should not exceed 10 percent.
With the addition of the composite metal panels (Class I material), the total amount of Class I
material increases on the building, most notably by 10% on the south elevation. The west
elevation decreases by I% and the north and east remain the same.
Planning Report — Spire Credit Union
September 23, 2014
Page 4
Buildiniz Address Numbers — In accordance with Section 2.78 of the City Code, building
numbers should be conspicuously displayed on the building, in a suitable location in an upper
corner or near the building entrance so it can be clearly seen from the street and read during all
hours of the day. Commercial building numbers should be a minimum height of 12 inches and in
a contrasting color to the color of the building.
Signage — An overall Sign Plan identifies the proposed sign locations including the existing
pylon sign as well as building signage, a monument sign and directional signage. As mentioned
previously, only properties with freeway frontage are allowed both a pylon sign and a monument
sign; the plans should be revised to eliminate one of the two freestanding signs. The Landscape
Plan identifies shrubs and perennials in the location of the pylon and monument signs.
Pylon — The applicant proposes to add an electronic message board to the existing 27 ft.
tall pylon sign. The existing pylon sign is part of the Town Centre Pylon Sign
Agreement which was approved in 1992. The pylon sign consists of the business name,
message center and a 1 foot panel labeled "24 Hour ATM ". There is no space allotted for
future tenant panels on the sign.
The sign exhibit includes a note that the pylon sign cabinet size is 125 sq. ft.; however, a
calculation of the sign face by staff shows it to equal 125.375 sq. ft. The sign face should
be a maximum of 125 sq. ft. in area.
The pole is proposed to be covered with aluminum and should be painted to match the
aluminum on the building. The antenna and sensor for the electronic message center
appear to be discreet.
Building — Two building signs consisting of internally illuminated channel letters are
proposed on the south and east building elevations comprising of less than 20% of each
building elevation. The raceway is to be painted to match the building color. All
electrical /conduit should be located behind the raceway or shrouded. Additional tenant
signs may be allowed per City Code regulations.
Monument — The monument sign is proposed to be 7 feet in total height with a 4 -foot
sign face, which is consistent with City Code requirements. The base of the sign, 3 feet,
consists of chocolate brown colored brick to match the existing building. The address
numbers are located within the sign and should be contrasting in color.
Directional — Five sets of directional signs are proposed at the two driveways and
throughout the site. The applicant should provide dimensions on the plan when
submitted to city staff for review.
Storm Water Management /Water Quality and Stormwater Drainage — The site includes 45,951
sq. ft. (30.5 %) of impervious surface. The stormwater management system was installed with
the original development and includes public storm sewer and a stormwater pond to the east. No
modifications to the. storm sewer system are proposed.
Planning Report — Spire Credit Union
September 23, 2014
Page 5
Streets /Access /Pedestrian Circulation — This property has direct access to two public streets;
Town Centre Drive and Yankee Place. No public street access modifications are proposed;
however, the Yankee Place driveway apron is in poor condition so it is being replaced.
Installation of the new driveway apron will require a right of way permit and to remove the
existing concrete curb and gutter and the boulevard and potentially a portion of the street. The
applicant should obtain a right of way permit and be responsible to restore the street, curb and
gutter, and boulevard in a manner acceptable to the City Engineer. The drive through exit lane is
proposed to be slightly widened by removing a portion of the adjacent landscaped median to
accommodate the installation of a drive thru ATM machine.
Public trails and a sidewalk are currently located along the three adjacent public streets (Yankee
Doodle Road, Town Center Drive, and Yankee Place). No additional pedestrian facilities are
proposed.
Financial Obligation — At this time, there are no pending assessments on the parcel.
Wetlands — Because there are no wetlands on site, City Code §11.67, wetland protection
and management regulations, does not apply.
SUMMARY /CONCLUSION
The applicant is requesting approval of a Planned Development Amendment for site
modifications to the existing two -story building located at 1250 Yankee Doodle Road. A new
financial institution has purchased the property and proposes updates to the parking lot, building,
landscaping and signage. The surrounding area contains a mix of retail and office uses.
Only one freestanding business identification sign is allowed by City Code; via the conditions of
approval, staff is suggesting the monument sign be eliminated. City policy makers should
determine the appropriateness of the monument sign.
ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED

at 1250 Yankee Doodle Road legally described as Lot 1, Block 1, Town Centre 100 Tenth
Addition, in the N % of Section 15.

Mrs. Sarah Thomas
City of Eagan
City Hall
3830 Pilot Knob Road
Eagan, MN 55122
RE: Spire Credit Union
Eagan, MN
.Mrs. Thomas,
architects
As requested in the Planned Development Amendment Checklist, below is a brief narrative of the proposed landscape,
exterior elevation and signage improvement project for your use. HTG Architects is seeking, on behalf of Spire Credit
Union, approval on the following items for the site located at 1250 Yankee Doodle Road.
Planned, Development Amendment
The following information is based on the enclosed site plan, survey, landscape plan and elevations.
GENERAL:
Spire Credit Union purchased the existing Associated Health Care Credit Union building at 1250 Yankee Doodle
Road earlier this year. This facility is located in a retail area just south of the Promenade shopping center. The
surrounding buildings are typical retail and office structures. In addition to the credit union's proposed tenant guild
out of the interior of the building, they would also like to upgrade the exterior image and condition of the site and
facility. If approved they would. incorporate these improvements this year to coincide with their tenant improvement
project. The goal is to have these upgrades done this year.
In order to improve leaks into the basement, the grade around the perimeter of the building will need to be sloped
away from the structure. Currently there are several locations where the existing grade has settled and needs to be
addressed. In. doing so — this will disturb existing landscaping and trees located close to the perimeter of the building.
Also — the existing landscaping is overgrown and has not been well maintained. The large pine trees located so close
to the building also provide a security risk. for financial institution. This can interfere with security camera's coverage
of the building and site and provide hiding spaces for individuals looking to illegally enter the building. In addressing
all of these maintenance and security items with the existing landscaping it was deemed that there would be enough
of a change where it was warranted to bring the new landscaping to the city for review.
In addressing the building exterior, the credit union is going to .replace the dated and. deteriorated glass block at the
main entrance and back stair tower with new commercial grade clear anodized aluminum frames that match the
existing aluminum frames. The glass block located at the drive up canopy will also be removed. In the tenant build
out project the drive up canopy will be remodeled to accommodate wider lanes and have a higher clearance -- to better
match today's typical drive thru standards. In order to improve the image of the facility the credit union would like
to add a: band of silver composite metal panels around the perimeter of the building in between the upper and lower
level windows. This metal panel color matches the existing aluminum frames and hardware — as well as their typical
signage colors. The credit union would also add blue composite metal panels at the main building entrance and the
backstair tower to break up the mass of the building and help identify the main building entrance. This color would
be custom dark blue color — to match their corporate logo colors. These new materials conform to the new building
standards and are considered Class I materials, as required by the city for this location.
As part of the rebranding of this facility as a new credit union, Spire would like to upgrade the existing pylon sign
located at the'NE oorner of the building. The location will remain, and the sign will conform to city code requirements.
The credit union would also like to add an electronic message center to this pylon. sign — similar to the message center
just installed I block to the west at the Associated Bank facility. This message center would also confonn to city code
requirements. The new pylon sign would incorporate the new and existing building materials, to better match the
building. Currently the:existing pylon sign does not provide this additional detail. The credit union thru their signage
vendor will also apply for a signage permit for this pylon sign, as well as the other building and site signs noted.

The building signage enclosed is showing LED channel letters to be mounted on. the upper level of the east and
south side of the building. A monument sign will be located at the south side of the site. Non- illununated
directional signage will be located at the entrance to the site on the south side of the property as well as the drive
thru exit on the east side of the site. There will also be a directional sign at the southwest side of the drive dun to
direct drive up traffic thru the site. Spire is in the process of obtaining along term'tenant to lease the remaining
portion of the facility. The intent is to provide tenant signage on the upper level of the east and west elevations,
located on the north sides of those elevations. There will also be a location for tenant signage on the bottom part of
the proposed monument sign. Once a tenant has been identified, a separate signage permit for these signs will be
submitted for review.
These site and building changes would have no impact on any city services. The current site and building have been
neglected for some time and are in need of attention, These improvements would .greatly enhance the quality and
image of the site from its current slate, Since this property is located in two separate school districts, the city will no
longer need to have these two parcels platted into one property. Spire will work with the city to determine correct
address of the facility for emergency response purposes since the property receives .access from Town Centre Drive.
For the most part, the overall existing site condition will remain as is in regards to layout, traffic flow, utilities, and.
grading. Most of the changes that will occur are due to the need to upgrade the existing condition of the site, such as
asphalt, sidewalks and overgrown landscaping, while addressing some of the grading and drainage issues around the
perimeter of the building as previously noted. The landscape plan has been revised to include the condition and
rating of the existing trees. In regards to the shrub size, the several of the shrubs were increased: in size as requested,
but due to security reasons, we did continue to show the existing smaller shrubs as well. The intent is to minimize
locations for people to hide as well as provide better visibility for staff and allow for better security camera
coverage.
Please contact me if you have any questions or need any clarifications or additional information.
Sincerely,
Ed Muehlberg
Project Manager

Agenda Information Memo
October 7, 2014, Eagan City Council Meeting
NEW BUSINESS
B. Planned Development Amendment and Final Planned Development
(Stonehaven Senior) — CH Development Company, LLC
Action To Be Considered:
To approve (or direct preparation of Findings of Fact for Denial) a Planned Development
Amendment to allow a four -story 137 -unit senior housing development located at the
southwest corner of Wescott Woodlands and Station Trail, subject to the conditions
listed in the APC minutes.
Because this is a single -lot development, approval of the Planned Development
Amendment simultaneously constitutes approval of the Final Planned Development.
Required Vote For Approval:
➢ PD Amendment and Final PD —At least three votes
Facts:
➢ This proposal is the final development in the Stonehaven PD, a 115 acre
residential development consisting of a mix of single - family, twin homes and
townhomes. The Preliminary PD designated this site for future senior housing up
to 100 units.
➢ The site is 3.57 acres and abuts Station Trail to the north and Wescott
Woodlands to the east, with access from Station Trail.
➢ The applicant is proposing a four story 137 -unit senior housing development
providing for independent, assisted living, as well as memory care.
➢ Construction is planned in two phases with 95 units initially, and a net addition
of 42 units in the future. The applicant is seeking approval for the entire
development at this time. (Unit count of 138 in planning report is in error; total
unit count of 137 is for both the initial construction and future expansion.)
➢ The Site Plan shows access from Station Trail in two locations with a looped
driveway, and surface parking. Underground parking is also provided.
➢ Site amenities include a secure garden area and patio on the south side of the
building, and sidewalks and trails within the site and also connecting to adjacent
trail systems. For residents requiring additional storage space, 28 storage
lockers are provided in the underground level.
➢ Tree mitigation will be required with the Phase 2 expansion and the amount will
be determined at that time. No mitigation is required for the initial Phase 1
construction.
➢ Absent a specific development plan at the time of Preliminary PD, the
Preliminary PD set the number of units at 100, and tied performance standards
to R -4 zoning district.
➢ The PD Amendment is requested for deviations from the Preliminary PD or
typical R -4 zoning standards. The deviations are discussed in the staff report and
include:
o More than 100 units
• Building height >35' and up to 60' with additional setbacks
• Additional setbacks for building height >35' not fully satisfied
• Parking setbacks from public right -of -way
• Building coverage of 25.1% as compared to 20% R -4 standard
• Amount of additional storage space
• Parking ratio 0.83 /unit and stall sizes 9' x 18'
➢ The Advisory Planning Commission held a public hearing on September 23, 2014,
and did recommend approval.
Issues:
➢ None
60 -Day Agency Action Deadline:
➢ November 2, 2014

independent living for the remainder.
Secretary Piper asked if phase two would also contain underground parking and Mr. Wilson
responded in the affirmative.
Member Dierkes asked about on- street parking and fire access. Assistant City Engineer
explained that Eagan Fire had been involved with the review of this development proposal and
adequate emergency access was being provided.
Chair Filipi opened the ,public hearing. There being no public comment, Chair Filipi closed the
public hearing and turned the discussion back to the Commission.
Secretary Piper asked about the parking setbacks proposed in relation to snow storage and
Assistant City Engineer stated ample space was available on the boulevard for snow storage
from Station Trail, and Mr. Wilson stated snow storage on site from the private parking areas
would be adequate.
Mr. Piper asked questions about the R -4 storage space requirements and tree preservation.
Planner Dudziak responded regarding the basis for the private storage requirement and
explained the approach for tree preservation.
Secretary Piper summarized his position that the building coverage was justified, the parking
ratio was consistent with past senior living projects and that he saw the height of the proposed
building as a non - issue.

The Stonehaven Preliminary Planned Development was initially approved in 2010. This site was
designated in the Stonehaven Preliminary Planned Development as a multi - family senior housing
for up to 100 dwelling units. The overall Stonehaven development provides single - family,
twinhomes, and townhome housing. The proposal completes build -out of the Stonehaven
development, providing multi - generational housing for the area.
Absent specific development plans at that time, the Preliminary Planned Development
Agreement tied future development of the site to R -4, Residential Multiple, zoning standards in
the City Code. Where the R -4 standards are not strictly satisfied, an Amendment to the Planned
Development is warranted. Deviations from the strict application of the ordinance, if determined
to be acceptable, can be accommodated through the existing Planned Development zoning.
The current proposal is for 138 units as compared to the 100 units approved in the Preliminary
Planned Development. The proposed 4 -story building is 50'9" in height. In R -4 zoning, where
building height exceeds 35 feet, additional setbacks apply. The proposed building height exceeds
35 feet and the corresponding additional setbacks are not fully provided. Building coverage is
proposed at 25.1 % as compared to the maximum 20% ratio for residential zoning districts.
EXISTING CONDITIONS
Existing Conditions — This parcel is the final 3.57 acres remaining from the Stonehaven
development. The site is fronted by two public residential streets: Wescott Woodlands to
the east and Station Trail to the north. There are boulevard trees along Wescott

Woodlands, and a mature wooded area in the southwest corner of the outlot. The
majority of the site will be disturbed in preparation for the proposed building and parking
lot.
Site grading, the installation of water and sewer service stubs, and the construction of stormwater
ponds to serve the development were constructed with previous development. The site generally
slopes from north to south, with elevations ranging from 906 to 870.
SURROUNDING USES
The following existing uses, zoning, and comprehensive guide plan designations surround the
subject property:
EVALUATION OF REQUEST
Description of Proposal — The applicant is proposing a 138 -unit 4 -story senior living
development upon 3.57 acres located west of Wescott Woodlands and south of Station Trail
within the Stonehaven Planned Development. The applicant has requested approval for the
overall development plan at this time, both the initial construction (Phase 1) and a future
expansion (Phase 2). Phase 1 consists of 95 units offering a continuum of care with independent
living, assisted living and memory care units. The Phase 2 expansion anticipates another 46
units as market demand increases in the future.
The applicant is seeking approval for the overall development of both phases at this time,
although Phase 2 may not be implemented for several years. Because the total unit count is
higher than assigned in the Preliminary Planned Development, an Amendment to the Preliminary
Planned Development is warranted. The narrative indicates "the additional market demand is not
expected to evolve for another 5 -10 years," and "we are willing to incur the costs of Phase I only
if we are rewarded with the flexibility to meet future demand with Phase IL"
Public Benefit — The narrative indicates the proposed project will provide current and future
senior housing for the area, and complete the variety of housing types within the Stonehaven
Planned Development. The narrative also states the proposed senior housing is expected add to
the tax base without burdening school systems, and provide employment not only in construction
jobs, but also for the estimated 35 staff members who maintain the facility and care for residents
within the development. Lastly, the applicant states that providing attractive and safe senior
housing opportunities within the community encourages turnover of existing single - family homes
in the area, attracting new young families into the community.

Compatibility with Surrounding Area — The proposed use is consistent with the Preliminary
Planned Development. The surrounding area is developed with a variety of residential uses
including single - family, twin homes, and townhomes in the Stonehaven development. The site is
adjacent to the Fire Safety Center to the north and high density transitional housing to the east.
The narrative indicates "the use of senior housing is complementary and serves as a great
transition and buffer to the rest of the neighborhood from traffic on Yankee Doodle and noise
from the fire station."
The developer held a neighborhood meeting on September 4, 2014. The applicant reported few
attendees, and no objections or substantive comments from the meeting.
Airport Noise Considerations — The site is located within Airport Noise Policy Zone 4 one -mile
Buffer and Sec. 11.64, Aircraft Noise Zone Overlay District, applies to new construction within
this area. Within the Zone 4 Buffer, multi- family residential uses with shared entrance are
considered compatible.
In addition to See. 11.64, the stipulations of the Preliminary Planned Development also apply.
Consistent with the conditions of the Preliminary Planned Development Agreement, this
development should utilize sound attenuation construction standards sufficient to achieve an
interior sound level of 45 dBA.
Site Plan — The proposed Site Plan shows a monument sign in the northeast corner of the site,
and ground mounted directional signs at each driveway. Surface parking is proposed along the
drive and to the west of the building. Underground parking is also provided, with access on the
west side of the building. A patio area is proposed on the south side of the building, and
sidewalks connect the site to adjacent sidewalks and trails along Station Trail and Wescott
Woodlands.
Lots and Density — The site consists of one lot and is 3.57 acres in size. The applicant is
proposing 138 units at full build -out, resulting in a proposed density of 38.7 units per acre. The
100 units provided for in the Preliminary Planned Development provided a density of 28 units
per acre.
Please note the density of these existing senior facilities for comparative purposes:
➢ Gramercy (Independent Senior Living) provides 14 units per acre
➢ Marice Manor (Assisted Living) provides 35 units per acre
➢ Keystone (Assisted Living) provides 56 units per acre
➢ Southview Senior Living provides 22.6 units per acre
Both Gramercy and Marice received approval of a Conditional Use Permit to allow the facilities
as retirement homes in the Limited Business zoning districts. Keystone is located in the Cedar
Grove District which permits density flexibility, and Southview has flexibility through Planned
Development zoning.

Bulk Standards — Absent a specific development proposal at the time, the Preliminary Planned
Development Agreement tied future development of the site to R -4, Residential Multiple, zoning
standards in the City Code. This section evaluates the proposal in comparison to typical R -4
standards.
Building Setbacks — R -4 zoning requires minimum structure setbacks of 50 feet
from a public right -of -way, and 30 feet in side and rear yards. On this site, the 50
feet setback applies to the north and east sides abutting Station Trail and Wescott
Woodlands, respectively. Minimum required setbacks on the south and west sides
would be 30 feet. Where building height exceeds 35 feet, structure setbacks
"shall be increased by three feet for each one foot of height over 35 feet." The
proposal exceeds the base setback requirements; however, it falls short in the
additional setback required due to building height as explained below.
At 50 feet 9 inches, the proposed building height is 15.75 feet taller than the R -4
district maximum. At 3 feet for each foot above 35 feet, additional setbacks of
47.25 feet would be required, more than doubling the 30 -foot minimum on side
and rear yards, and nearly doubling the 50 -foot front yard minimum.
The Site Plan proposes setbacks of 88.3 feet on the east side, and 77.3 feet on the
north side. While not fully providing for the 97.25 feet required by Code for a
building height of 50.75 feet, the proposed front setbacks do provide an increased
setback beyond the 50 -foot minimum.
The building setbacks to the south lot line range from 36.7 feet to 39.9 feet. In
Phase 1, only a short wing of the building (75 -foot length) is this close to the
south lot line; the Phase 2 expansion adds another 165 feet of building at this
distance. The length of building is broken up in two segments, mitigating its
visual impact. In addition, the south property line abuts Homeowner's
Association Open Space, which provides additional distance to the single family
homes to the south.

Building Height — Building height is measured from the average grade to the midpoint of
a pitched roof. The method of measurement for underground garages is similar. City
Code allows a maximum building height of 35 feet with allowance to 60 feet with
additional setbacks of 3 feet for each one foot of height over 35 feet. The elevations
depict the height of the building is 50.9 feet, requiring an additional 47.25 feet of setback.
As depicted above, the proposal does not meet the additional set back requirements. This
deviation can be accommodated via the Planned Development zoning. The proposed
setback measurements should be accurately shown on the Site Plan.
Building Coverage — The Zoning Ordinance limits building coverage to 20% of
the lot area in all residential districts. Building coverage for both Phase 1 and 2 is
proposed at 25.1%. The acceptability of building coverage in excess of 20% is a
policy matter to be determined by City officials. If acceptable, the greater
building coverage can be accommodated through the Planned Development
zoning.
Parking Setbacks — City Code requires parking to be set back 20 feet from a
public street and 5 feet from adjacent residential property. The proposed setbacks
to Station Trail on the north side are less than 20 feet, and 12.9 feet at its closest.
On the west wide, the property is adjacent to townhomes near Station Trail and
open space further south. Parking on the west side is between 15 feet and 20 feet
from the west side lot line.
Green Space — The Zoning Ordinance does not set a minimum green space
standard for residential development. The plans propose 55% green space.
Storage Space — City Code requires 150 cubic feet of storage space within the building for each
unit, exclusive of storage space within the units. The applicant indicates they are providing a
variety of storage strategies for different types of units. Generally, in senior housing the
applicant states "it is better for ... residents to have better and ample storage within their unit
than located elsewhere in the facility." In addition to the in -unit storage spaces, 28 storage
lockers are provided in the lower level for those residents who require more storage space or for
oversized items.
Trash Storage — Trash storage is proposed inside the building on the underground level.
Site Signage — The Site Plan notes a boulder wall and with a wall monument sign. The
description is consistent with other monuments in Stonehaven, however, details sign plans were
not provided. A Final Sign Plan showing the proposed sign elevation, materials and dimensions,
should be provided for the Final Planned Development Agreement. Prior to installation, a Sign
Permit is required.
Parking — The Zoning Ordinance typically requires two stalls per unit for multi - family
residential, at least one covered or underground, with no separate specified parking
standard for senior housing facilities.
Planning Report — Stonehaven Senior Living
September 23, 2014
Paae 7
The applicant proposes both underground and surface parking totaling 114 stalls in both
phases. Initially 92 stalls will provided with the 95 units in Phase 1, a ratio of 0.97 stalls
per unit. A net 22 stalls will be added with the 46 -unit Phase 2 expansion, bringing the
overall parking to 114 stalls for 138 units, which equates to a ratio of 0.83 stalls per unit.
The applicant's submittal identifies 31 memory care units, 106 units independent and
assisted living, and one guest suite, noting that residents in memory care and assisted
living units have fewer vehicles.
The proposed 0.83 stalls /unit is slightly lower than what has typically been provided for
senior projects. Other senior projects in Eagan range from 0.87 stalls per unit to 1.7 stalls
per unit. For comparative purposes:
➢ Southview Senior Living (2013) provides 0.87 stalls per unit
➢ Oakwoods Phase II (2007) provides 1.1 stalls per unit
➢ Keystone (2003) provides 0.87 stalls per unit
➢ Oakwoods Phase I (199 1) provides 1.7 stalls per unit
➢ O'Leary (1997) provides 1.16 stalls per unit
➢ Marice Manor (1997) provides 0.74 stalls per unit (with proof of parking to total just
under one stall per unit)
➢ Clare Bridge — Alzheimer's & Dementia Care Community (1997) provides .5 stalls per
unit (with proof of parking to total .88 stalls per unit)
The Site Plan shows parking stalls dimensions at 9 feet wide by 18 feet deep for both surface and
underground stalls. This is a deviation from the 10 feet wide by 19 feet deep requirement in the
City Code. The surface drive aisle for the surface lot is 24 feet wide as required by City Code.
There is little daily turnover anticipated with the stalls provided, however, the 18 foot parking
stalls may result in longer vehicles extending into the drive aisle, reducing the drive width to less
than 24 feet. Accessible parking stalls should meet ADA dimensional requirements. The
deviation to stall dimensions can be accommodated via the Planned Development zoning, and
acceptability is a policy matter to be determined by City officials.
Building Elevations /Architecture — The proposed 4 -story building utilizes different finish
materials for visual interest, and has a varied roof line providing several peaks on the pitched
roof. These roof variations break up the roof line and enhance the fagade features. The building
fagade has some relief with some elements being set forward or back. Additional interest is
provided in the window elements with some units having windows and some also having a
balcony with a railing.
City Code does not prescribe specific materials, or mix of materials, for multi - family residential
uses. The proposed 4 -story building utilizes the following finish materials: cement fiber board
panels and cement fiber lap siding, cement fiber shake siding, brick, and cultured stone. The
pitched roof is finished with asphalt shingles. Where the foundation of the underground level is
exposed (primarily on the south elevation), the finish is a rockface concrete masonry unit.
Planning Report — Stonehaven Senior Living
September 23, 2014
Page 8
Building Address Numbers — Building address numbers should be installed consistent with the
provisions of Section 2.78 of City Code.
Mechanical Equipment — City Code requires mechanical equipment to be screened from off -site
views. The proposed building architecture shows a pitched roof. Aside from vents, mechanical
equipment is expected to be ground mounted or located inside the building. Ground mounted
equipment is located adjacent to the patio on the south side of the building, and is identified with
a 6 -foot high opaque fence enclosure. The equipment is screened from street views by the
building, and the fence should provide sufficient screening of equipment from the south. Roof
mounted vents and other appendages should match the roof color.
Site Lighting — Parking lot lighting is proposed through LED lights mounted at 23 feet. One
building mounted light is proposed above the garage drive entrance. Both fixtures are downcast
and shielded.
The proposed plan provides the 0.5 fc minimum level of illumination throughout the parking lot
areas. No specific pedestrian lighting is proposed along sidewalks. Sidewalks that provide
connections between the parking area and the building, specifically on the west side of the
building, should be illuminated for safety reasons. The 0.1 fc minimum on the Lighting
calculations is a bit misleading since it is taking from points beyond the parking lot areas. In
reviewing the photometrics, it appears the minimum level within the parking lot is closer to 0.6,
which would bring the average to minimum ratio (a measure of light uniformity) down from 17.7
fc to 2.95 fc; ratios of less than 4 fc are generally considered acceptable. The Final Site Lighting
Plan should be revised to include pedestrian lighting at the doorways and along sidewalks where
pedestrian use is anticipated during hours of darkness.
Landscaping — The submitted Landscape Plan appears acceptable with minor modifications.
The row of surface parking is broken up with landscaping in the separations been parking
sections. Berming is provided within the setback area. Additional landscaping should be added
on the north side to screen and buffer the parking area from Station Trail. Foundation plantings
are proposed on both sides of the building entrance, along the retaining wall by the garage
entrance, and around the mechanical equipment and patio on the south side. Landscape features
frame the driveways and the site signage. Shade and ornamental trees fill in the open yard spaces
around the site, accommodating utilities and trees already installed along the east side.
The proposed Landscape Plan does not include mitigation plantings. Tree mitigation is required
in addition to site landscaping.
Tree Preservation — This development application's tree preservation will be considered on a
single -lot, single - phase, multiple -unit residential type of application. Per the City of Eagan Tree
Preservation Ordinance allowable tree removal for this type of development proposal is set at
30 %.
Planning Report — Stonehaven Senior Living
September 23, 2014
Page 9
A tree inventory submitted with this application indicates there are 17,486 square feet of
significant woodlands currently existing on site. According to plan submittal, significant tree
impacts will result in the removal of 3,729 square feet of significant woodlands for Phase 1 and
12,560 square feet of significant woodlands for Phase 2, for a total proposed removal of 16,289
square feet (93% of the total).
Because the proposed removal of significant woodland removal is more than allowable, there is
required tree mitigation. Tree mitigation for this application as proposed calculates to forty -four
(44) Category B trees (or an equivalent combination of Category A and /or C trees).
To date the applicant has not submitted a Tree Mitigation Plan. With the bulls of tree removal
occurring at the time of the Phase 2 expansion, and removal for the Phase 1 initial construction
less than the 30% allowable, the submittal of the required Tree Mitigation Plan can be done at the
time of Building Permit application for the Phase 2 expansion.
The applicant should provide an updated Tree Inventory and Tree Mitigation Plan at the time of
Building Permit application for the Phase 2 expansion, for review and approval of the City
Forester. The Plan should identify additional trees proposed to be removed, and actual
mitigation due will be calculated based on the current plan at that time.
Wetlands — Because there are no wetlands on site, City Code §11.67, wetland protection and
management regulations, does not apply.
Storm Water Management /Water Quality — The site includes 70,333 sf (45.3 %) impervious
surface. The design and construction of overall Stonehaven development accounted for the
storm water management of this site.
Storm Water Drainage — Storm water flows through a private storm sewer system to the south
and enters a series of ponds constructed with previous Stonehaven additions, beginning with city
pond DP -9.9. These ponds were designed to accommodate the drainage of the overall
development, including this parcel.
Utilities — Lateral water and sanitary sewer lines were installed with previous development along
Station Trail and Wescott Woodlands. Two water service stubs were provided along Station
Trail, one of which is proposed to be used for a fire hydrant lead, and the other for the water
service to the building. The sanitary sewer service is proposed to be installed to an existing
sewer lateral along Wescott Woodlands.
In 2004, the Eagan Technology Task Force recommended that broadband and fiber optic
telecommunications networks be expanded in the city wherever possible. The applicant's
narrative indicates they will plan in advance for fiber -optic network access to the facility. The
Preliminary Planned Development requires that the applicant submit a proposal /infrastructure
plan to be approved by staff to provide telecommunications fiber to the home (FTTH) or conduit
to all homesites to permit third party providers to install FTTH within the neighborhood. The
applicant should provide such a plan for review and approval by City staff, for incorporation into
Planning Report — Stonehaven Senior Living
September 23, 2014
Page 10
the Final Planned Development Agreement. This development should include the installation of
fiber optic cable, or a conduit for future installation, in its construction plans at the time of
Building Permit.
Streets /Access /Pedestrian Circulation — The proposal includes a looped driveway with two access
locations on Station Trail. Private sidewalks are shown along the back of the building and along
the entire driveway. The sidewalk connects to the existing public trail along Wescott Woodlands
in two locations, and to Station Trail at the westerly driveway entrance. "No parking fire lane"
signs should be installed along the north side of Station Trail.
Consistent with the conditions of the Stonehaven Planned Development, the developer should
dedicate restricted access in favor of the City along the entire length of Wescott Woodlands,
within the development, in a form acceptable to the City Attorney.
Parks and Recreation — Park Dedication requirements for this development were previously
fulfilled through the designation of approximately 35 acres of open space /natural area to be owned
and managed as open space /natural area by the Homeowners' Association. Trail dedication was
also previously satisfied through the construction of on -site trails through the open space. The trail
is owned by the Homeowners' Association, with those portions determined to have public benefit
covered by public trail easements.
The applicant's narrative describes features of the proposal geared toward providing additional on-
site recreation space specific to the senior residents. These include a secure outdoor garden space
for Memory Care and Assisted Living residents, and independent residents have access to an
outdoor patio and lawn area adjacent to the dining room on the south side. In addition, sidewalks
connect to the trail along Wescott Woodlands and those throughout Stonehaven.
Financial Obligation — At this time, there are no pending assessments on this parcel and trunk
and lateral utility charges were paid with previous development.
SUMMARY /CONCLUSION
The applicant is proposing to construct a 138 -unit senior housing facility in two phases within
the Stonehaven Planned Development. The proposed development completes the Stonehaven
Planned Development, which contemplated senior housing on this site. Absent a specific
development plan at the time of Preliminary Planned Development, a unit count of 100 was
assigned to the site, and development standards were tied to typical R -4 zoning. The proposed
Amendment to the Planned Development is to exceed 100 units and deviate from some of the R-
4 bulk standards, such as building height, and setbacks, lot coverage and parking.
The applicant has requested approval for the overall development plan, both the initial
construction (Phase 1) and a future expansion (Phase 2). Because the site is a single lot, approval
of the Preliminary Planned Development simultaneously constitutes approval of the Final
Planned Development for this lot, upon execution and recording of the Final Planned
Development Agreement.

Project Narrative:
Stonehaven Senior Living - assisted, independent & memory care
A 3.57 Acre lot, with heavy woodlands to its
southern border; preserved by the development.
CH Development Company LLC & Ebenezer offers
Stonehaven which will be a residential scaled
senior living environment. This same group has
previously produced a high quality development in
Saint Louis Park called Towerlight. A senior living
facility serving seniors with assisted, independent
& memory care apartments.
Shown Right: Towerlight Senior Living, Saint Louis Park
What do you want to do; timing/ phasing:
8/19/2014
Revised 9/3/14
To meet the needs of seniors for housing as identified in Maxfield Research's September, 2013
Comprehensive Housing Needs Assessment for Dakota County prepared for the County's Community
Development Agency, CH Development Company, LLC plans to develop a 138 -unit senior housing
complex with approximately 186,500 square feet. Phase I will offer seniors the ability to "age in place"
by offering a continuum of care with approximately 95 units (130,800 square feet) of independent living,
assisted living and memory care units. Phase II anticipates adding another 46 units as Phase I leases up
and market demand indicates the need for additional units.
The proposed development fulfills the stated intent of the PUD Special Area 4- carriage hills which was to
have open space and natural vegetation, but have a variety of housing types. By adding a higher density
senior housing component the Stonehaven development will provide much needed multi - generational
housing to the area which can buffer the noise of the fire station and Yankee Doodle.
This design, with its professionally designed lush landscaping and patio areas, although dense, still
supports existing trees and open space on the site.
While the PUD permits up to 100 units of senior housing to be developed on the site, we propose
initially 95 units with 46 additional units added as market demand increases with the aging of the Baby
Boom generation as projected by the above referenced Maxfield Research study. Since that demand is
not expected to evolve for another 5 -10 years, we are requesting approval now for the entire project
since we are willing to incur the costs of Phase I only if we are rewarded with the flexibility to meet
future demand with Phase II. With more units, we believe we can provide better services for our
residents overtime. The project at 100 units, could be approved only as a site plan review however, we
are asking for modest set back and density changes based on this particular use within the PUD area.
If approved the project would break ground in late March of 2015 and open in the spring of 2016
Existing and surrounding land uses and zoning on the subject property and within 660ft:
The surrounding area to the west of Westcott Road has been developed in accordance with the PUD
Special Area 4- carriage hills - to the north of the proposed building across Chestnut Lane is the recently
8/19/2014
Revised 9/3/14
built fire station; to the west are townhomes recently built by Lennar; to the south (buffered by a small
wetlands area) are single family homes also recently built by Lennar; to the east across Westcott
Woodlands Road is an older single family residential development zoned R -1. For the most part we are
following zoning consistent with R -4 zoning
What impact does the planned development have on surrounding property and land uses?
The planned development fulfills the stated intent of the PUD by adding a senior housing component to
the development providing multi - generational housing for the area.
What impact does the planned development amendment have on the subject property?
The architecture of the proposal is residential in nature using forms and materials that are consistent
with the district. It completes the final open space of the PUD adding sidewalk through the north side of
the property connecting it to the Chestnut Lane Townhome Development.
The property sits to the west of the existing high density transitional housing ,east of new town homes,
and south of the fire station therefore the use of senior housing is complementary and serves as a great
transition and buffer to the rest of the neighborhood from traffic on Yankee Doodle and noise from the
fire station.
The site is currently minimally maintained and is prone to erosion; therefore, this development will
stabilize the corner and complete the overall Lennar Development. It also, supports the spirit of the
PUD to maintain the rolling hills and large trees of the previous golf course.
What impact does the planned development have on City services such as sewer, water, storm water
run -off and roads?
The impact of senior housing on City services is much less than other high density housing. This is
reflected by the fact that the sewer access charges imposed by the Metropolitan Council for senior
housing are significantly less than multifamily projects.
We have made an effort in our design to limit the amount of surface parking and plan to incur the
significant expense of underground parking to minimize storm water run -off.
Since most of our residents will not drive, the impact of our proposed community on local traffic and
roads is expected to be minimal.
The site will be heavily landscaped and will rely on the existing developed retention pond, southeast of
the site, to handle excess storm water. Traffic to this product type of housing is extremely light
therefore the impact to land, water and streets will be minimal.
Does the requested land use proposed by the amendment result in a better use of the land? Explain.
8/19/2014
Revised 9/3/14
The property is currently vacant, as mentioned above there is supportive housing to its east and a fire
station to the north, making the subject property unlikely for sale development. The project provides
housing for an underserved population in a great high quality exterior. The amendment to the PUD if
accepted will improve the overall neighborhood.
Written narrative concisely describing public benefit of the proposed Amendment.
The proposed senior community will benefit the public by providing current and future senior housing
for the area in order that seniors who have spent their lives in Eagan and the surrounding communities
remain in Eagan. As a generalization, senior housing communities are great neighbors by infusing the
neighborhood with a community feel that draws people in to volunteer, with friends and families drawn
to visit. In our experience, the seniors in our buildings also look for opportunities to become active
community members which we would promote in the Stonehaven neighborhood. Our senior residents
are also expected to support the community and businesses close to them by volunteering and shopping
locally since seniors typically prefer to stay in their familiar community.
There is no better neighbor than a senior citizen. They are light on the land, streets and park systems in
Eagan, yet the project creates a great tax base, thus; increasing the City's base without burdening school
systems.
In addition to construction jobs, the proposed senior community is expected to employ many people
longer term as care is provided to our residents 24 hours a day. This building is projected to employ
approximately 35 individuals, a mixture of full and part time, since most of our residents do not drive,
employees park below the building leaving surface stalls for friends and relatives. Those friends and
relatives also support local Eagan Shopping and Services.
This type of housing also provides the public benefit of encouraging a turnover of single family housing
in the area as seniors are offered an attractive alternative to the isolation of living alone and the burden
of maintaining a home while providing the health and safety of 24 hour care. When seniors move into
these communities, most areas typically experience younger families moving into the formerly senior
owned housing stock which helps to revitalize neighborhoods.
Storage Strategy:
The proposed Senior Living is not like multi - family housing where all families may have luggage, Christmas
trees, seasonal items, bikes and recreational equipment that need to be stored and kept separate from other
residents. This tends to be more need -based and service oriented housing where the average resident is 85
years old where mobility and strength are limited. Generally it is better for these residents to have better and
ample storage within their unit than located elsewhere in the facility
Of the 95 units, 15 units are memory care. These are folks who rarely leave the secured area of the building.
Their storage needs are limited and the project has planned for suitable storage accessible from within each
apartment, limiting the reasons to be outside of the secured area.
Of the 80 remaining units, 21 apartments are large two bedrooms that have additional storage inside the
apartment in walk -in bedroom and entry closets. The 60 remaining smaller apartments will typically have two
large storage rooms with 3 tier shelves. Those shelves have a 3x4 foot areas designated by tenant where they
can store luggage, or off season items. We have found that this is a better use of space for these residents.
However, for residents who find this unacceptable we have 28 traditional storage lockers in the lower level for
residents with oversized items. In Senior Living, one size never fits everyone's needs and so we have provided a
variety of storage options.
Clarification of Smoke Evacuation in Garaqe:
The exhaust fans planned for within the garage will serve to ventilate the space to clear car exhaust and carbon
monoxide, and will also serve to quickly remove smoke from the space in the event of a fire.
Sianage:
The site will have a monument sign at the northeast corner. The lettering is still to be determined at a later date
when the branding of the project is complete. The final design will ultimately take into consideration all city
ordinances and codes, and we hope design of the sign can be submitted and reviewed by the city when we
know more. Other way- finding and parking signage does not seem necessary at this point, as the site is logical
and straightforward to navigate.
Access to Fiber Network:
The development team is committed to providing the latest technology to its residents and will plan in advance
for fiber -optic network access to the facility.
Page 1 of 2
Recreation Space:
The development has planned for recreation space for all its residents. For those whom reside in the Memory
Care area of Assisted Living, there is an outdoor garden space that is secure for the residents safety and well-
being. Other, more independent residents will have access to an outdoor patio and adjacent lawn outside the
dining room, looking south over the slope and pond. They will also have access to the sidewalks within the site
that connect to the regional trail that runs along the east side of the site. Because this parcel is part of the
overall Stonehaven development, the residents will also have access to all the recreational spaces previously
planned for, approved, and now built within the greater development. This includes the greenspaces, trails, and
play areas.
