Sepulvado asked about side yards. 7.5 feet side yards so total of 15 feet. Sepulvado asked about stormwater. Basin will discharge into trunk storm sewer line that drains into the city's larger basin that works its way to Hwy 169. The Commissioner asked if this was single family or multifamily. He asked about the bedroom sizes. The last subdivision had no two bedrooms. The price of the lot and building requires at least three bedrooms and up. Two stories are four bedrooms with 3.5 baths plus a finished basement. Page 3 of 13 Commissioner Schleck asked if they were building models. Donnay said he has built thousands of homes.

Shakopee Planning Commission Meeting April 4, 2024 FROM: Kyle Sobota, Senior Planner TO: President and Commission Members Subject: Proposed Vacation of Drainage and Utility Easement at 2133 Pike Lake Road Policy/Action Requested: Recommend City Council approval of the draft vacation resolution. Recommendation: Recommend City Council approval of the draft vacation resolution, as presented. Discussion: Site Information: Property Address: 2133 Pike Lake Road Applicant: Rod Just, KRB Development Property Owner: Bharatall and Ramona Motilall Lot Area: 4.41 Acres Zoning District: RR, Rural Residential 2040 Comp. Plan: Suburban Residential Rod Just of KRB Development, representing the Bharatall family, has applied for a vacation of a public drainage and utility easement on Lot 7, Block 1, Meadowbrook Run. The subject property is adjacent to the Whispering Waters development that is currently being developed by KRB Development. The applicant is proposing to vacate a 20' drainage and utility easement that covers an existing drainage swale that is undersized for certain rain and snowmelt events and needs to be widened for the 2nd phase of the Whispering Waters development. The applicant proposes to construct a wider swale and dedicate a larger easement south of the current easement that will accommodate larger storm events. City Engineering staff anticipated this vacation request and staff recommends that the City Page 5 of 13 Council approve the request, on the condition that a new easement is provided. The applicant has already provided a draft easement document for the new easement for the City's review.

I represent KRB Development VIII who is the developer of the Whispering Waters neighborhood which is south of Eagle Creek Blvd, east of Pike Lake Road and adjacent to the Motillal family property. Through a Hydrology study that we were required to do as part of our development requirements, it was determined that the 20' drainage swale that was platted in 1992 on the Motillal property was not large enough to handle the amount of water that is present with certain spring melt and rain events. The study recommends that the drainage easement be 35' wide, 15' wider than the existing easement. The Motallil family was agreeable to granting an additional 15' for the drainage easement but requested that the easement be relocated 45' further to the south away from their home. We had the Hydrology report reviewed and it was determined that moving the drainage swale further from their residence had no negative impact on the previous findings. The Motallils are requesting since they are granting a wider easement in a different location on their property that they would like the city to Vacate the current easement which will no longer be needed or utilized. We appreciate your consideration. Respectfully, Rodney Just KRB Development VIII 612-730-8892 Page 8 of 13 0 0 C C - 0 - 0 0 - 0 C C C C 0 0 C C - 0 - 0 0 - 0 C C C C City of Shakopee Memorandum TO: Kyle Sobota, Senior Planner FROM: Darin Manning, Project Engineer SUBJECT: Vacation of Public Drainage and Utility Easement PROJECT NO.: VACA-000195-2024 DATE: March 26, 2024 The application indicates a request to vacate a drainage and utility easement. The reason for this request is that a larger drainage and utility easement is needed to accommodate the Whispering Waters development located east of the subject property. The property owner has agreed to granting the additional easement with the request that the easement is relocated further south from their residence. Per the hydrology study that was prepared for the Whispering Waters development, it was determined that relocating the drainage and utility easement to the south has no negative impacts. The Engineering Department has completed its review of the vacation request and offers the following comments at this time for the applicant and for the planning department: 1. Conduct a title search to confirm other interest from utility holders in any existing/underlying easements on the property. 2. Vacation of easements shall be contingent on new drainage and utility easements being dedicated and recorded with the County. Recommendation Should the City recommend approval of this request, the Engineering Department suggests the items listed above be attached as conditions of the approval.
