TO: Mayor and City Council
Mark McNeill, City Administrator
FROM: Mark Noble, Planner I
SUBJECT: Final Plat of River Valley Estates 1 st Addition
MEETING DATE: July 5,2005
REVIEW PERIOD: May 26, 2005 - September 23, 2005
DISCUSSION
Pulte Homes has made application for Final Plat approval of River Valley Estates 1st
Addition. The property is located north of Valley View Road and west ofCSAH 83 (Exhibit
A). The preliminary plat was approved on February 15, 2005; at that time it was known as
Park Meadow East. The property is approximately 40 acres in size, with 6.3 acres being
dedicated for right-of-way and 24 acres dedicated as an outlot and reserved for future
development. The plat proposes the creation of 29 single family residential lots in this first
addition, with 50 lots proposed in future phases (Exhibit B). Although the developer has
proposed a development with fewer lots than shown on the preliminary plat, it is still in
substantial conformance with the approved preliminary plat, which had shown 92 lots. The
developer proposes to save 16 trees and plant 257 new trees, which would exceed the
minimum requirements of the Woodland ordinance. A large number of the proposed trees
will be planted along CSAH 83 and Valley View Road, which will help minimize the noise
impacts on this development from these roads.
Jeff Weyandt, Assistant City Engineer, and Ryan Hughes, Natural Resource Specialist, have
provided memoranda noting their recommendations (Exhibits C & D), which have been
attached for Council's review and incorporated into the draft resolution. Additionally,
Shakopee Public Utilities Commission (SPUC) provided comments that have been
incorporated into the draft resolution.
Jim Grampre, Building Official, commented that if approved, temporary street signage will be
required and the permitted lots shall be accessible.
The Finance Department noted that there are pending assessments for thi~ property in the
amounts of$132,670.51 and $13,930.29; these amounts are estimates and are subject to
change.

TO: Mayor John J. Schmitt & Council Members
FROM: Beverly J. Koehnen
DATE: July 2, 2005
RE: Park Meadows Plat
The purpose of this memo is to document how staff has sabotaged my efforts to be
heard, while at the same time making it appear to you as if I am being included in
discussions.
February 3, 2004 Preliminary Plat Approval:
(Please review the February 22, 2004' memo I wrote you to correct Michael Leek's
version of my testimony at the January 8,2004 Planning Commission meeting.)
I had picked up a copy of the packet information that you receive from City staff. It
contained a Resolution and staffs recommendation for you to deny the preliminary plat.
If I had been told there was a subsequent memo for the table at this meeting, even
though I was hospitalizing Mom, I could have sent a representative to watch out for my
interests. As you may recall, this is the meeting where you realized you had just
, approved a revised plat that you had not seen! You asked if the Council wanted to
reconsider the approval vote and they chose not to do that.
June 15, 2004 Final Plat Approval:
I had been consulting with an independent person for their opinion about the drainage
area that borders the entire west side of my property. I met with him on May 3. Among
other things, he requested Grading Plans. I picked up the March 10, 2004 version from
Joe Swantek. My records show May 19 as the date I gave them to my consultant.
I received the enclosed memo written by Julie KUma, postmarked May 27,2004, from
Joe Swantek. I called my consultant ana told him there were revisions to the grading
plan that would make reviewal of the plans I had provided him a waste of his time, and I
would bring him the updated version when I got it.
Joe Swantek delivered the June 8, 2004 version of the grading plans to me around noon
on June 14, making it too late to bring to the consultant. So when Michael Leek stated
"They made an offer to her to prOvide Preliminary Plans of Grading and Drainage. She
opted to receive the final plan, rather than interim versions., he was seriously
misleading you. He also neglected to mention my concerns regarding the effect of
continuous seepage coming out of their drainage area on crops. The minutes of that
meeting do not reflect that either.
I was unable to attend your June 15, 2004 meeting. There was a milestone family event
planned for that date and I was the one hosting it. I could not back out of this obligation
that had been planned far in advance.
I try very hard to obtain up-to-date information on my own because, from experience,
staff does not let me know what is happening "next door" to me. Another example of this
is that a second final plat was approved for Park Meadows that I did not find out about
until I recently requested the information you had received for your February 15, 2005
meeting.

CITY OF SHAKOPEE
Memorandum
CASELOG NO.: 05-083
TO: Mayor John J. Schmitt and City Council
Mark McNeill, City Administrator
FROM: R. Michael Leek, Community Development Director
SUBJECT: Beverly J. Koehnen Memorandum Dated July 2, 2005 Regarding "Park
Meadows Plat"
DATE: July 5, 2005
GENERAL:
This memorandum is provided in response to Ms. Koehnen's July 2,2005 memo. In that
memorandum she alleges that City staffhas ".. . sabotaged. .." her efforts to be heard, while
apparently trying to obscure those efforts at sabotage. I will clearly state for the record that
neither I nor any other member of the City staffhas knowingly sabotaged Ms. Koehnen's
efforts to be heard in regards to the preliminary or final plats of Park Meadows. Indeed, I
believe staffhas made a good faith effort to afford Ms. Koehnen all reasonable opportunities
to be heard. I believe further that the record clearly reflects that Ms. Koehnen not only had
meaningful opportunities to address her concerns to the Planning Commission and. City
Council, but that both she and City staffhad kept the City Council apprised of her numerous
concerns and the steps taken to address them.
Ms. Koehnen alleges in connection with the final plat action taken by the City Council on
June 15,2004, that I seriously mislead the Council regarding her concerns about the final plat.
The information I provided at that meeting was information I had received from engineering
and the project manager, Julie Klima, regarding Ms. Koehnen's request for a copy of the final
grading plan, and was provided to the Council in good faith.
Finally, Council should note that Ms. Koehnen's memorandum is silent on the numerous
phone calls and counter visits that both planning and engineering staff members fielded
throughout the process that eventually led to the approval of the preliminary and final plat of
Park Meadows.
I will attempt to address the specific approvals as laid out in Ms. Koehnen's memorandum:
February 3, 2004 Preliminary Plat Approval (park Meadows):
. December 4, 2003 - At staffs request, the public hearing before the Planning
Commission was continued to January 8, 2004. Concerns expressed were the following;
".. .1) the infiltration design, 2) the pond design, 3) a street to the north, 4) a possible land

.
swap between Shakopee Gravel and Centex Homes, 5) location of Thrush Street and 6)
southern boundary Street H connection."
. January 8, 2004 - The continued public hearing was held, closed, and the
Planning Commission acted to recommend to the City Council denial of the preliminary
plat. Ms. Koehnen testified at the public hearing regarding the following;
". ..she did not think what was presented for a drainage area was sufficient. She stated if
the drainage was not done right her property would be under water. She also was
concerned about the trail that was not going to be used as a trail and she thought far too
many people were being crammed into to small of a space. She was most concerned
about the drainage issue. She felt the City needed to take time and analyze this problem;
there was significant drainage in that area and the City needed to be sure that the
drainage was done correctly. She was asking that this preliminary plat not be approved
tonight. (From the minutes of the January 8, 2004 Planning Commission meeting)
. February 3, 2004 - The minutes of this meeting reflect the report that I provided
that evening, as well as the status of the concerns that had been raised at the Planning
Commission. Council will note that the one remaining issue of concern for the Planning
Commission was Thrush Street, and that by the February 3rd meeting that issue had been
addressed.
Mr. Leek, Community Development Director, reported on the Preliminary Plat for
Park Meadows located North of Valley View Road and east of Staghorn Drive. Mr.
Leek noted there was a memo on the table tonight regarding this preliminary plat.
Mr. Leek noted that there had been m()vement on this plqt and there now was an
agreement with the adjacent property owners as to the alignment of Thrush Street. A
letter was also on the table noting the willingness of the adjacent property owner,
Shako pee Gravel, Inc. and the applicant to have this preliminary plat move forward.
Mr. Leek noted the particulars of the land swap between Shako pee Gravel, Centex
Homes and Gonyea Land Company that would need to be agreed to in specifics but
Resolution No. 6001 before the council tonight provided conditions that assured this
would occur or the plat would not be recorded.
Mr. Leek highlighted three items with which he spoke to Ms. Beverly Koehnen, an
adjoining property owner, about. These issues regarded the proposed trail, drainage
and the impact of ground water contamination. He noted the trail did not end at the
beginning of Ms. [Keohnen 's] property and it was his understanding this trail was not
going to be constructed initially; this trail was proposed to provide a connection to the
properties to the east in the future. The trail would be graded but there would be no
asphalt laid down. City Engineering staff and WSB & Associates, Inc. had very
carefully looked at the drainage plans and were comfortable with the developers I
plans. Mr. Leek noted there was no evidence of ground water contamination at this
time; SPUC was having the water at the Shako pee gravel pit monitored regularly
checking for ground water contaminants. (From the minutes of the Official
Proceedings of the February 3, 2004Shakopee City Council meeting at page 3)

reasonable amount oftime to review the information.
. June 1, 2004 - The staff report noted that additional information had been

engineering staff, that Ms. Koehnen had requested a copy of the final grading plans.
