Overview
Windsor Development is proposing the development of Seven Oaks, an 86 lot single-
family residential subdivision of a 69.40-acre parcel located in the Rlc zoning
district, north of Meadowvale Heights Park and Subdivision, east ofM-Vale, west of
Country Road No. 1 and south of Country Side Acres.
The site contains woods, fields and wetlands with high ridges between the wetlands
where the development is being proposed. The parcel is in the Urban Service
District with urban services available from the east in Nordic Woods and from the
south in Meadowvale Heights. To the north and west of the property is the RIa
zoning district with no urban services and low density residential (2.5 acre lots).
ProlJosed DevelolJment Plans
The proposed preliminary plat contains 86 single-family residential lots with a
minimum lot size of 12,398 SF and an average lot size of roughly one half acre. The
new roads follow the ridgelines between wetlands connecting County Road No.1
and Landers Street, and Elgin Street with two cul-de-sacs to the north.
Wetlands
.
As proposed, the roads and building sites are laid out along the ridgelines and avoid
most of the three large wetlands on the site. A small portion of a wetland under Lot
32, Block 1, as proposed, will be filled and mitigated adjacent the NURP pond in the
park. A TEC Panel with the DNR and Army Corp. of Engineers reviewed the
wetland mitigation. The comment period ended on September 27, 1999 with no
adverse comments.
Site Access
Access to the property will be from County Road No. 1 to the east (requiring a
County Road Access Permit), Elgin Street NW to the south and Landers Street NW
to the west. The Landers Street NW access will require the developer to construct a
segment of road in Outlot A in the M - Vale Subdivision from Landers to the edge of
the plat. When Meadowvale Subdivision was platted, Outlot A was intended to be
for a future road connection to the property now proposed for development. Outlot
A is currently held in private ownership and will need to be obtained for public use
in order to construct the road connection to Landers. At this time, it is unclear
whether the developer has been able to make contact with the owner of the Outlot
A. Staff supports the road connection to Landers Street NW for reasons of health,
safety and welfare. Development of the property would be most difficult without
the connection.
A sidewalk will be constructed on the south side of the east-west road in the plat
connecting County Road No. 1 and Landers Street NW.

Cul-de-sacs / Utilities
The two cul-de-sacs in the development conform to the maximum length
regulations. The water mains will be looped, as required by the Elk River Utilities.
The Streets and Parks Department has requested a snow storage easement in the
cul-de-sacs similar to those required in the Trott Brook Farms development.
Grading and Drainage
The drainage from the site will be contained in two NURP ponds on site. One is
located near the entrance from the County Road on Lot 50, Block 1, and will be a
site amenity with a fountain detail maintained under the Homeowner Association.
The second pond is located partially on Lots 13 and 14, Block 2, and partially in the
park. Staff had recommended that the developer move the NURP pond out of the
park to provide greater access through the park and to minimize associated tree
loss. However after discussion with the developer, staff is satisfied with the present
location, which has been moved further out of the park while maintaining the
function and general location (See the attached City Engineer's memo). The Park
and Recreation Commission concurred with staffs recommendation.
Landscaping
.
The Subdivision Ordinance requires one front yard tree and one street tree for each
lot; two of each for corner lots. In addition, the developer previously spoke of
screening rear lots (double fronted lots) adjacent County Road No. 1. No screening
is shown on the site plans. Staff recommends that the double fronted lots be
screened from County Road No. 1 and that a landscape easement be recorded with
the County against these lots with the recording of the final plat.
Homeowners Association
In order to grade a road into the site from Landers Street NW, the developer will
have to construct several retaining walls in the public right-of-way. Generally, the
City would not want structures in the right-of-way because of maintenance and
liability concerns. The developer is proposing to have the homeowners association
be responsible for maintenance and liability of the walls in the public right-of-way.
This agreement will require the City Attorney's review and approval.
Outlot A
Outlot A is shown to contains 12.35 acres of which 8.5 acres is wetland, .35 acres is
a NURP pond and wetland mitigation, and 3.48 acres of park.
Park Dedication Requirements
.
In 1998, The Park and Recreation Commission endorsed a park concept plan for
Meadowvale Heights Park that incorporates additional park land to the north of the
\ \elkriver\sys \shrdoc \planning\stevewen \ccmmo \p99-9.doc
Memo to City CouncillP 99-9
October 18, 1999

.
large wetland to create an improved "public" access to the park and to provide an
opportunity for walkways around the wetland.
In February 1999, a concept for Seven Oaks was presented to the Park and
Recreation Commission for review and in general the concept was acceptable to the
Commission contingent on the following criteria:
. That the trail be installed as part of the development.
. That the dedicated parkland be dry land with the trail on the dry land.
. That there be a 20 foot minimum distance maintained between the trail and
back yard property lines.
The proposed park has 360 feet of street frontage at a point where the land slopes
steeply, over 20%, towards the wetland and where the land area is too constricted
for lots. The park frontage is unusable for anything but a trail access and providing
an improved "public" entrance into the park and framing views of the wetland.
.
Although the proposed park is generally compatible with the park concept plan, it
does not meet the minimum criteria of the February 10, 1999, Park and Recreation
review. Upon site plan review, staff found that the proposed trail does not meet the
requested 20 feet minimum distance from the rear lot lines of Lots 15 and 16, Block
2. Staff also believes the space between the lots and the wetland appears to be
"pinched" and negates the benefits of the greater street frontage and public nature
of the proposed entrance to the park. Furthermore, the small knoll where Lots 15
and 16, Block 2, are proposed might provide an opportunity for a small play
structure or meeting place near the road and entrance to the park.
The actual amount of land proposed for park dedication is 3.48 acres or roughly 5%
of the development. As per ordinance, the City can require up to 10% of the land for
park dedication. Staff recommends that an additional .58 acres of land, Lots 15 and
16, Block 2, be added to the land being dedicated as park for a total land dedication
of 4.05 acres or 5.8% of the land and the remaining park dedication be collected in
cash in lieu of land.
Park and Recreation Recommendation
On August 11, 1999, the Park and Recreation Commission concurred with staffs
recommendation and recommended that the developer dedicate 4.05 acres of land
for park with the remaining dedication to be paid in cash at the amount required by
the City at the time of final plat. In addition, the Commission recommended that
the developer construct a bituminous trail with the public improvements in the first
phase of the development and be reimbursed as per City policy.
Planninf! Commission

At the August 24, 1999 Public Hearing, residents Ron and Yvonne Halpaus, 19563
Landers Street, expressed concerned about damage to their trees due to proposed
grading within the drip line (See attached letter). Planning Commissioners

questions were mostly about the park concept plan and the proposed park
dedication. Overall, the Commission concurred with staffs recommendations.
Planning Commission recommended that the Council approve the Preliminary Plat
sighting staffs memorandum, with the following additional conditions:
. THAT PRIOR TO PRELIMINARY PLAT APPROVAL, THE DEVELOPER SHALL
INVENTORY THE TREES ON THE WESTERN BORDER OF LOT 1, BLOCK 1,
ILLISTRATE THE TREES ON THE GRADING PLAN AND MAKE THE
NECESSARY REVISIONS TO THE GRADING PLAN TO PROTECT THOSE
TREES. PRIOR TO GRADING, THE DEVELOPER SHALL VISUALLY SHOW THE
LINE BEYOND WHICH GRADING SHALL NOT OCCUR AND SHALL TAKE ALL
NECESSARY PRECAUTIONS FOR EROSION CONTROL AND TO PREVENT
DAMAGE TO THE TREES.
. THE SIDE YARD SETBACK FOR THE WEST SIDE OF LOT 1, BLOCK 1 SHALL
BE 20 FEET.
An additional condition to consider in respect to tree preservation is as follows:
. THAT ANY TREES ON OR OFF SITE, NEAR THE LIMIT OF GRADING THAT
ARE TO BE PROTECTED SHALL BE FENCED AT THE DRIPLINE TO PREVENT
GRADING, COMPACTION, OR STORAGE OF DEBRIS OR EQUIPMENT.
At the September 20, 1999 City Council meeting, this item was postponed so that
the developer could comply with the additional Planning Commission conditions
(See attached revisions).
Recommendation
Staff and the Planning Commission recommend that the City Council approve the
Preliminary Plat for an 86 lot single-family residential development with the
following conditions:
1. THAT A DEVELOPERS AGREEMENT BE PREPARED OUTLINING THE

RE: SEVEN OAKS PLAT
CITY OF ELK RIVER
Dear Planning Commission Members:
.
As requested we have reviewed the submittal for the Seven Oaks Addition. The developer of
the addition is Windsor Development and the engineering consultant is Schoell and Madson,
Inc. The submittal consisted of a preliminary plat, preliminary grading, drainage, and erosion
control plan, and preliminary utility plan. The storm drainage calculations were also submitted
and reviewed. Staff did a preliminary review on the first submittal and then met with the
developer and his engineer, based on that meeting many of our initial comments were
addressed. Based on our review of the revised submittal, we still have the following comments:
.
A. Preliminary Plat
+ The most westerly cul-de-sac was revised and shortened based on staff comments to
come in conformance with the maximum length of 700 feet. This caused Lots 12 & 13
at the northern end of the cul-de-sac to be somewhat irregularly shaped.
+ Lot 32, Block 1 has a wetland in the middle of it that is proposed to be filled. The
developer will need to process this through Steve Rohlf's office and it will be reviewed
by a TEC panel, convened by Steve Rohlf.
+ Phil Hals has requested that snow storage easements be provided in the cul-de-sac
areas. He has also requested that mailboxes be clustered to maximize the areas for
snow storage.
+ The recommendation from the Park and Recreation Committee was passed on to the
developer and interpreted to mean the elimination of Lots 15 & 16, Block 2. The
developer has chosen not to eliminate these two lots on his submittal.
+ Access to the development will be from the northeast corner off the County Road 1, the
southeast corner off Elgin Court in Meadowvale Heights and at the southwest corner
into M-Vale. The developer has researched Outlot A M-Vale Addition for the purposes
of connecting the road in the future. The ownership of Outlot A is still in the name of the
developer of M-Vale. We have suggested that the developer of Seven Oaks make
contact with the owner of Outlot A and discuss transition of that ownership for purposes
of extending the road.

B. Grading Drainage and Erosion Control Plan
. The plan shows a number of retaining walls. There is a 4-foot high retaining wall on Lot
10, Block 4, a 7 -foot high retaining wall near the NURP Pond at the northeast corner of
the plat, a two-tiered 8-foot high retaining wall in the rear yards of Lots 8 & 9, Block 1
and a 4-foot high retaining wall on Outlot A in M-Vale where the road would be put
through. It is our understanding that the retaining walls in the public areas would be
maintained by a homeowner's association and the retaining walls on individual lots
would be the responsibility of the lot owners.
. There are two NURP ponds shown on the development, one on the northeast corner,
which takes a small amount of the drainage. The major portion the drainage is directed
to the NURP pond in the south central portion of the plat. The Park and Recreation
Commission made a recommendation that this NURP pond be removed from the park
area as much as possible. The developer has moved this NURP pond northerly into
Lots 13 & 14. This seems to provide adequate space for the park trail to be constructed
between the wetlands and the NURP pond.
. Drainage calculations have been submitted and reviewed. There are a few minor
adjustments we will be asking developer to make and resubmit the calculations. In
general, I believe the drainage calculations are adequate for the development.
. We have reviewed the grading plan relative to opportunities to minimize the amount of
tree loss. In general, we can find only isolated lots where a change in the style of home
to be constructed could possibly save some trees. However, there would be other
problems associated with this, for instance, sticking a full basement house into a line of
walkout homes. In general, we believe the developer has worked with the natural
grades of the land. This still does result in a significant amount of vegetation being
cleared from the site.
C. Utility Plan
. Sanitary sewer service will be provided by extending gravity sanitary sewer from
Meadowvale Heights Addition in the southeast corner of the Seven Oaks Development.
This gravity sewer ultimately flows to a lift station in the Meadowvale Heights
Development. The lift station is adequately sized to handle the additional lots.
. The developer has shown the looping of watermain through the cul-de-sac areas in
accordance of the Elk River Municipal Utility policy.
. On the standard detail sheet for the typical street section, the detail shows one roll of
wood fiber blanket behind the curb line. This should be changed to 3-feet of sod.
If you have any questions regarding any of these comments, I will be in attendance at your
August 24, 1999 Planning Commission Meeting.
Sincerely,
.

The site is roughly 70 acres and lies just north of the Meadowvale Heights

· Sidewalks on main road

. Buffering along County Road No. 1
Last February, the Park and Recreation Commission reviewed the concept
plans and gave the developer the following preliminary comments:
. That a trail be installed as part of the development.
. That the park land dedication be dry land with the trail on dry land.
. That there be a 20 foot minimum distance maintained between the trail
and back yard property lines.
Pro Dosed Park
At present the park consists of 12.30 acres with 3.79 acres of high ground and
8.51 acres of wetland. In addition to the wetlands, the developer has located a
NURP pond (pond to collect pollutants and runoff) and a wetland mitigation
area behind lots 7,8 and 9, Block 3 (see attached annotated preliminary plat
B). No sidewalks have been shown along streets and no trail has been ~hown
in the park. Adjacent to Lots 10 and 11, Block 3, the park is too narrow to
accommodate the Commission's request for a 12 foot bituminous trail
between the wetland and rear property lines. The park has 360 feet of street
frontage, but the area has a 1:5 (20%) slope towards the wetland and is
relatively unusable for parking or structures.
Analvsis
Overall, the proposed park conforms to the Park Concept Plan prepared by
staff by creating an opportunity to have a trail loop around the wetland with
two boardwalk wetland crossings.
Consistent with recent plats and current park dedication policy, credit for
park dedication would be given for the 3.79 acres of dry park land. The 3.79
acres represents only 5.4% of the plat area, therefore, the Commission has an
opportunity to ask for an additional 3 acres of park land to be consistent with
Section 1008.18, of the Subdivision Ordinance. Staff recommends that Lots
10 and 11, Block 3 (.57 acres), be added to the park to increase the frontage
on the public street, to provide some useable high ground for park purposes,
and to better accommodate the 12' bituminous trail (See Attached Annotated
Preliminary Plat A). If the Commission feels the size and configuration of the

park satisfies the area's needs, then any remaining park dedication
requirements could be collected in cash in lieu of additional land being
dedicated as park.
Grading within the park area behind Block 2 results in steeper slopes within
t~e park area, loss of trees, and a greater difficulty accommodating a 12 foot
trail around the wetland. Staff recommends having all the grading for Block
2 be outside the limits of the proposed park. (See Attached Annotated
Preliminary Plat B)
Staff also recommends having the developer remove the NURP pond from the
park. (See Attached Annotated Preliminary Plat B)
Also, as part of the review of the park, staff has considered options to connect
the park to the County trail on the east side of Elk Lake Road, but has found
the best and safest connection so far to be, a sidewalk along the main east-
west road to an intersection with Elk Lake Road. (See Attached Annotated
Preliminary Plat A)
Recommendation
Staff recommends that the Park and Recreation Commission recommend that
the City Council accept the park dedication as proposed with the followipg
additions:
1. THAT A TRAIL BE INSTALLED AS PART OF THE DEVELOPMENT.
2. THAT THE PARK LAND DEDICATION BE DRY LAND WITH THE TRAIL ON
DRY LAND.
3. THAT THERE BE A 20 FOOT MINIMUM DISTANCE MAINTAINED BETWEEN
THE TRAIL AND BACK YARD PROPERTY LINES.
4. THAT LOTS 10 AND 11, BLOCK 3, BE INCLUDED IN THE PARK DEDICATION.
5. THAT THE NURP POND BE REMOVED FROM THE PARK AREA.
6. THAT GRADING FOR LOTS IN BLOCK 2 BE OUTSIDE THE LIMITS OF THE
PROPOSED PARK.
7. THAT SIDEWALKS BE INSTALLED ON THE EAST-WEST STREET IN THE
PLAT.
8. THAT ANY REMAINING PARK DEDICATION REQUIREMENTS BE

Dear Ms. McPherson,
Thank you for the copy of your September 2nd letter to Windsor Development requesting that they
identify and protect the trees to the adjacent property to the west (19563 Lander Street NW) in
response to our request at the Planning Commission meeting.
We appreciate your assurance that our request is perfectly reasonable. In order to further
strengthen our position that our property stands to suffer severe damage we contacted an expert,
with impeccable credentials, to provide factual support for our reasoning. Thereby providing you,
our Mayor and City Council members with professional, independent information to support your
decision which we hope will be in our favor.
We engaged the services of Steve Kunde, President of Kunde Co. Inc. Enclosed please find his
credentials and his report. We respectfully request that you supply our Mayor and City Council
members with an advance copy.
Based on the findings in this report we request that his recommendations for setback, tree stump
removal, water & drainage, oak wilt and future liability, are adopted as conditions for approval of
this development.
We plan to attend the City Council meeting, make a presentation and respond to any questions
asked by City staff, Mayor or City Council members.
We appreciate your assistance and look forward to obtaining final acceptance at the Council
meeting on September 20th, 1999.
Sincerely,
~q----

Mr Ron Halpaus,
19563 Lander Street
Elk River MN 55330
September 10, 1999
Dear Mr Halpaus~
On August 30, 1999 I met with you to inspect and discuss the impact the proposed development
of the adjacent property to the East, will have on your trees. The following identifies the areas of
concern which should be addressed in the planning stages and carried out as the property is
developed.
.
1) SETBACK - To protect the trees within five (5) feet of property line, it is my opinion
that a setback of thirty (30) feet be required. This setback will allow adequate space
for the retention of the existing root structure. A tree protection fence should be
placed along this setback to prevent encroachment into the Protected Root Zone
(PRZ). If in specific areas the need arises to enter the PRZ the area could be
encroached upon, but no closer than twenty (20) feet from the tree. In this situation
root pruning should be done with a vibratory plow having a cutting blade of four (4)
to five (5) feet in length to stimulate root growth.
2) TREE STUMP REMOVAL - Directional felling of trees should be required if they
will fall across your property line and damage healthy trees. Stumps should be ground
out within the thirty (30) foot PRZ. No grubbing or digging of stumps should take
place in the PRZ.
3) WATER & DRAINAGE - Topographic changes should not allow excessive moisture
to collect even in temporary situations within the PRZ. Any additional "flow-through"
water will greatly increase the moisture level of the soil and can damage and kill oak
trees.

4) OAK WILT - A thorough inspection of the rear portion of your property found no
oak wilt present. Removal of the existing oak wilt infection sites within the
development will decrease the likely-hood of your trees becoming infected. However,
all tree related activity such as; cutting, removal, stump work, and excavation near
trees should not be done during the time period from April 1 - July 1. I recommend
that any and all tree related workbe done during the natural dormant period of Nov 1-
March 31. Many cases exist where substantial oak tree loss was experienced by
homeowners and contractors due to the introduction of the oak wilt fungus by tree
related activities and new construction.
5) FUTURE LIABILITY - Construction activities which impact your trees, either
through rpot damage or the introduction of oak wilt, also increases your future
liability. Trees impacted on your property could become a hazard to future property
owners across property lines. Your trees could then become a liability to them if
setbacks are not adequate or if structures are placed close to your property line
(within fifty (50) feet.
6) SUMMARY - I have completed an initial appraisal of the affected trees on your
property. The initial valuation is in excess of Nine thousand and nollOO dollars
($9,000.00) for the trees located within five (5) feet of the property line.
Kunde Co., Inc. has assisted numerous municipalities and developers in tree protection issues.
The procedures recommended above has proven to not only increase the survival of the affected
trees, but also decreases the developers liability for future losses, while providing a positive
experience for all landowners.
