City Hall, 485 Gorman Street
1. Roll Call Present: Commissioners Forsythe (Chair), Sepulvado, Ranua, Reding,
Robbins, and Weiler
Absent: Sandhu
Staff Present: Noble, Schwabe
Meeting started at 7:05 PM.
2. Approval of Agenda: Motion by Commissioner Robbins and seconded by
Commissioner Sepulvado. Approved unanimously (6-0).
3. Recognition by Planning Commission of interested Citizens: None
4. Consent Agenda:
4.a May 8, 2025 minutes: Motion by Commissioner Robbins and seconded by
Commissioner Ranua. Approved unanimously (6-0).
5. General Business
5.a PUBLIC HEARING: Ordinance amending City Code Section 151.002 and
151.007K. related to agricultural uses and seasonal sales stands.
Motion to open the public hearing by Sepulvado and Seconded by Robbins.
Unanimously approved.
Staff member Schwabe presented the proposed request, noting that staff was asked by
the Commission and City Council to review this language. Staff has revised as identified
in the staff report. Staff Schwabe reviewed the new definitions, specifically noting that
there is 1 definition which is being broken up into 3 distinct types — crops, non -livestock
and livestock, and where each is allowed as permitted or accessory. She also reviewed
the refined table and modified conditions, including not wanting seasonal sales year
round, nor conflicts with accessory structures language.
The Commission discussed these permitted and accessory uses, the overall effect
which was to streamline the code and make it more clear on standards and where sales
may occur year-round.
Commissioner Ranua provided a hand out highlighting differences from the 2019 code,
specifically addressing bee hives and what can/can not be sold. This hand out was
entered into the record.
3
The Commission further discussed specific language including vegetables, noting that
clarification is needed, especially concerning cannabis use which has its own specific
standards. It was noted that the intent was to not allow vegetable gardens but to
differentiate between a personal vs. commercial garden/seasonal sales operation, and
that peas/carrots were not considered crops. Considerable discussion followed
regarding flexibility in what could/not be sold at the stands, both types of product,
origination of product, and volume of product. It was also discussed how the USDA
defines certain product (such as poultry and bees), with staff assuring additional
research will be conducted to alleviate any concerns.
Motion made to recommend to City Council the Ordinance amendments by
Commissioner Robbins seconded by Commissioner Sepulveda, specifically requesting
that there be some clarity on types of crops allowed (vs. vegetable gardens/stands) and
that the definition of livestock be researched, especially concerning poultry and bees.
Passed unanimously.
5.b PUBLIC HEARING: Comprehensive Plan Amendment to Figure 4.11 —
Residential Development Potential By Decade (All Land Uses) and Figure 4.12 —
Planned Land Use in the 2040 Comprehensive Plan.
Motion to open the public hearing by Sepulvado and Seconded by Robbins.
Unanimously approved.
Staff member Schwabe presented the proposed Comprehensive Plan Amendment,
explaining that the Planning Commission reviewed a request last fall changing the
density for the proposed Shakopee Gravel development, but that the Metropolitan
Council raised concerns with how that was not consistent with how they evaluated
density. City staff met with the Met Council and have now proposed a change that
complies with the Met Council's policy and would allow the city to reach our goals
concerning this 27 -acre segment of the proposed project. Essentially, this amendment
would not change the density, just the use table.
Commissioner Forsythe inquired whether the approved PUD plan was changing or not,
with Schwabe confirming it was not being changed.
Commissioner Robbins questioned whether this was being done to address the Met
Council's concerns. Staff Schwabe explained the Met Council's role in the development
process, noting that compliance with their standards is required in order to have sewer
permits approved, and that they are reviewing projects on a smaller scale of areas
within this development vs. a comprehensive look at the overall development. Staff
Schwabe ensured the Commission that the Met Council is satisfied with this proposed
amendment.
Motion to close the public hearing by Robbins and Seconded by Weiler. Unanimously
approved.
4
Motion made to recommend to City Council the Ordinance amendments as presented
by Commissioner Robbins seconded by Commissioner Reding. Passed unanimously.
6. Other Business: Commissioner Robbins inquired whether the Commission could do
a tour of the community in August to observe past, current and proposed projects within
the community. Staff will confirm this inquiry.
7. Adjournment: Motion to adjourn to July 10, 2025 at 7:00 PM made by
Commissioner Reding and seconded by Commissioner Robbins. Passed unanimously
(6-0). Meeting ended at 8:07 PM.

PUBLIC HEARING - Zoning Map Amendment and Preliminary Plat for
Elliana Estates
Amanda Schwabe, Planner
Michael Kerski
Action to be considered:
Two motions are required for this request:
• A motion to recommend approval of Ordinance O2025-018 approving the zoning
map amendment rezoning the property from Agricultural Preservation (AG) to
Urban Residential (R1 -B) .
• A motion to recommend approval of Resolution R2025-075 approving the
Preliminary & Final Plat of Elliana Estates.
Motion Type:
Simple Majority
Background:
Current Zoning: Agricultural Preservation (AG)
Proposed Zoning: Urban Residential (R -1B)
Total Site Area: 13.94 ac.
Proposed Lots: 31
Lot Area: 7.58 ac.
Outlot Area: 3.38 ac.
Right of Way Area: 2.98 ac.
Rick Osberg, James R. Hill, Inc. on behalf of Beverly J. Koehnen Revocable Trust (property
owner) has made application for a rezoning and Preliminary and Final Plat Concurrent of
Elliana Estates. The Planning Commission does not take action on Final Plat; however,
since the Preliminary and Final Plat concurrent was submitted, the resolution reflects
that. The subject property is located west of Mystic Lake Drive S (CR 83) between Thrush
Street and Valley View Road East and is improved with a single-family residence,
detached garage and an agriculture structure.
The applicant has proposed to rezone the site from Agricultural Preservation (AG) to
Urban Residential (R -1B) and plat 31 single family lots on 13.94 acres with two (2) outlots
6
(storm pond and a wetland). The property is in the Agricultural Preservation (AG) zoning
district and is proposed to be rezoned to Urban Residential (R-1 B) for the development of
the 31 single-family homes served by two cul-de-sacs with connection to the north and
south via the extension of Avon Lane. The existing structures would be removed along
with the access from Mystic Lake Drive S (CR 83).
Sidewalks are proposed on the north side of both cul-de-sacs as well as the east side of
Avon Lane. Trails will be installed from each cul-de-sac for connectivity to existing trails in
the Valley Crest development to the north as well as the trail along the west side of Mystic
Lake Drive S. There are no parks proposed for this development therefore the developer
will be providing cash to meet the park dedication requirements (the site is adjacent to
the Valleycrest Subdivision where a park is being constructed).
A tree preservation and landscaping plan have been submitted. Up to 30% of the
inventoried trees are allowed to be removed without replacement. Staff is working with
the applicant to determine the appropriate amount of replacement trees to be planted
on site in addition to the required street trees. Trees that are not able to be placed on the
property may be allowed to be placed on adjacent city -owned properties with cash -in -lieu
provided for any additional remaining replacement trees per the city fee schedule.
The two (2) proposed outlots will be dedicated to the city and totals 3.38 acres in size.
Outlot A, located north of proposed Jenlyn Ct would be utilized for a stormwater pond.
Outlot B, located south of Elliana Place, contains an existing wetland. This plat also
includes the dedication of .52 acres of right-of-way for Scott County as well as 2.46 acres
of right-of-way for the proposed cul-de-sacs and connection to the existing stubbed Avon
Lane running north to south. When determining density, the Metropolitan Council does
not allow for city streets to be excluded in the net area (gross area - county R.O.W. -
outlots) = 10.04 acres which results in a density of 3.08 units/acre. This development is
compliant with the requirements of the single-family residential guiding (3-6 units/acre)
and the proposed R-1 B zoning (max. 5 units/acre).
City departments, Scott County, and other outside agencies were given the opportunity to
review and provide comments regarding these applications. Comments have been
incorporated into the draft resolution.
The City Council may grant a zoning ordinance amendment when it finds that one or
more of the following criteria exists:
1. The original zoning ordinance is in error. The original zoning ordinance is not in error.
2. Significant changes in community goals and policies have taken place. Significant changes
in goals and policies have taken place. The applicant is proposing to develop the site
consistent with the 2040 Comprehensive Plan as well as the developed, residential
neighborhoods to the north, south, and west.
7
3. Significant changes in city-wide or neighborhood development patterns have occurred. The
proposed Urban Residential (R-1 B) zoning designation is consistent with the zoning of
properties to the north, south, and west.
4. The comprehensive plan requires another provision. The comprehensive plan guides this
property as Suburban Residential. Rezoning the property to Urban Residential (R-1 B)
would bring the property into compliance with the 2040 Comprehensive Plan.
Staff believes the criteria are met as noted above; therefore, staff support the requested
rezoning as well as the preliminary and final plat request.
Recommendation:
Approve the suggested action.

The Elli, LLC - Ryan Real Estate — OneTenTen Homes development group is pleased to submit the
application for preliminary and final plat for the single-family development of ELLIANA ESTATES.
ELLIANA ESTATES will be the development of the Koehnen property, located at 2036 Mystic Lake Drive
South in Shakopee, MN. The 13.9 -acre parcel is proposed to be platted and developed into 31 single-
family homesites. The applications will be accompanied by a request to rezone the property from
Agriculture Preservation AG to Urban Residential RIB.
The site is poised for this development opportunity, having established single-family
neighborhoods to the south and west and a more recently developed neighborhood to the north.
ELLIANA ESTATES will feature homesites with 50 -foot -wide building pads on lots having a minimum
width of 65 feet, with lot areas ranging from 8,086 square feet to 20,769 square feet. The proposed net
density for the site is 3.08 units/acre.
Although the site is surrounded by residential lots, there are stormwater features providing
buffers along much of the site boundary. With the combination of the existing stormwater buffers and
the proposed open -space outlots within the site, less than 15% of the project boundary will have less
than 100 feet of building -to -building separation.
The east portion of the site is predominately wooded. The existing homestead situated within
the wooded area is in disrepair and will be demolished. In order to achieve the required minimum
density of 3.0 units per acre, tree loss is inevitable. The development work proposes to preserve
approximately one third of the existing trees. The proposed landscaping includes planting of mitigatory
trees throughout the site as practicable. Two outlots, are proposed to be platted and deeded to the
city — one containing preserved woodland and wetland areas and the other containing the stormwater
management basin. Pedestrian connections are provided to the north, south east and west.
OneTenTen Homes is currently an active builder in Shakopee and neighboring communities
south of the river. The planned array of customizable homes has typically priced from $650k to $1.1m.
In conclusion, please review the following renderings of OneTenTen home portfolio.
