Subject: Packet Material for the October 21, 2010 Planning Commission Meeting
Application Action Deadline: November 30, 2010
Agenda Item: YMCA Camp Streefland Conditional Use Permit Amendment
The Minnesota Valley Chapter of the YMCA has submitted an application for a
conditional use permit to allow the construction of a new detached accessory
building on their property. The City Council approved a conditional use permit in
1979 to allow the YMCA day camp. This was followed by conditional use permit
amendments in 1994 and 2000 for the construction of new accessory buildings.
The subject property is zoned RA, Rural /Agricultural District.
The 2010 Zoning Ordinance update removed commercial recreation uses as an
allowed conditional use in the RA District. All stipulations from the 1979, 1994 and
2000 conditional use permits and the 2004 interim use permit that pertain to the
present YMCA use of the property will be carried forward and incorporated into the
stipulations of this conditional use permit amendment.
The purpose of the conditional use permit is to allow the construction of a new
484 square foot storage shed on the 5.83 acre parcel adjacent to Klamath Trail.
The existing 168 square foot storage shed adjacent to the parking lot will be
removed.

STAFF ANALYSIS.
The YMCA property is located at the southwest corner of Kenwood Trail (CSAH
5) and Klamath Trail. The YMCA obtained the 36 acre property as a gift in 1973
from Christina Huddleston, a long time resident of the Lakeville area. A condition
of the gift of land to the YMCA is that the YMCA agrees to use the property for
outdoor education and activities.
HISTORY. A timeline of past planning actions on the property is as follows:
1979 — A conditional use permit was approved to allow the development of
the site as a day camp and outdoor recreational facility for the YMCA.
1994 — A conditional use permit amendment was approved to allow the
construction of a 2,400 square foot accessory building that is also used for
storage and periodic occupancy by program attendees. The 1994 conditional
use permit amendment identified and corrected a number of non - conforming
zoning issues including dual commercial and residential zoning of the
property, uncombined parcels, and various encroachments from an adjacent
property.
2000 — A conditional use permit amendment was approved to allow the
construction of a 1,440 square foot detached accessory building to be used
for a rain shelter, activities and storage. A small shed was also approved at
that time which was later destroyed in a fire. Additional non - conforming
setbacks and encroachments were corrected at that time.
2
2004 — An interim use permit was approved to allow the relocation of an
existing 168 square foot storage shed located within the required 150 foot
setback from the OHWL of Kingsley Lake to an area near the parking lot for
use as maintenance equipment storage. A trash enclosure was constructed
next to the shed. A stipulation of the interim use permit required that the
private sanitary sewer system be brought into code compliance. The YMCA
subsequently requested that they be allowed to connect to City sanitary
sewer.
2005 — A Comprehensive Plan Amendment was approved to allow the YMCA
to connect the pool house and pool house bathrooms to City sanitary sewer
which would then allow the YMCA to abandon the non - compliant private
sanitary sewer system. The Comprehensive Plan Amendment was required to
bring the one acre area of the YMCA property around the swimming pool and
pool house into the current MUSA and to allow the pool house and pool
house bathrooms to be connected to the sanitary sewer line located along
Kenwood Trail (CSAH 5).
2006 — A variance was approved for lot size and lot width to allow the
subdivision of a one acre parcel for the extension of the sanitary sewer service to
the pool house. The variance was required as part of the 2005 Comprehensive
Plan Amendment to bring a portion of the YMCA property into the current MUSA
for a lot less than 10 acres in area in the RA District. An administrative
subdivision was approved to allow the creation of the one acre parcel.
Conditional use permit. The YMCA's use of the property is grandfathered as an
allowed use in the RA District prior to the 2010 Zoning Ordinance update. A
conditional use permit amendment for the expansion of a legal, non - conforming
use is being processed for this request. A maximum of 8,712 square feet of
accessory building area is permitted in the RA District. The site currently has
eight accessory buildings on the subject property.
A conditional use permit amendment is required to comply with the following
standards outlined in Section 11 -4 -7 as may be applicable:
A. The use and the site in question shall be served by a street of sufficient
capacity to accommodate the type and volume of traffic which would be
generated and adequate right of way shall be provided.
The site is accessed from Klamath Trail, Klamath Trail is adequate to
accommodate the traffic generated from the YMCA day camp use. The
proposed accessory building will not increase traffic on Klamath Trail.
3
B. The site design for access and parking shall minimize internal as well as
external traffic conflicts and shall be in compliance with Chapter 19 of this
Title.
The site design for the accessory building will not alter the previously
approved access and parking lot layout.
C. If applicable, a pedestrian circulation system shall be clearly defined and
appropriate provisions made to protect such areas from encroachment by
parked or moving vehicles.
The proposed accessory building does not require modifications to the
existing pedestrian system.
D. Adequate off - street parking and off - street loading shall be provided in
compliance with Chapters 19 and 20 of this Title.
The 1994 conditional use permit amendment included the construction of a
gravel parking area off of Klamath Trail. The parking lot allows for
approximately 34 automobile parking spaces. Overflow parking is directed
to the Evergreen Community Church property on the north side of Klamath
Trail through a mutual agreement between the YMCA and Evergreen
Community Church. No parking shall be permitted on the public streets.
E. Loading areas and drive -up facilities shall be positioned so as to minimize
internal site access problems and maneuvering conflicts, to avoid visual or
noise impacts on any "adjacent" residential use or district, and provided in
compliance with Chapter 20 of this Title.
Loading and unloading occurs in the parking lot on the YMCA property.
Amendments to the loading and unloading area are not proposed with the
new accessory building.
F. Whenever a nonresidential use "is adjacent to" a residential use or district,
a buffer area with screening and landscaping shall be provided in
compliance with Chapter 21 of this Title.
Residential zoned property lies to the west and north (across Klamath
Trail) of the YMCA property. The YMCA day camp activities and parking lot
are located no closer than 160 feet from the residential area to the west.
The proposed accessory building will be located in the north - central area of
the site adjacent to an existing detached accessory building which will be
removed when the new building is constructed. No additional landscape
screening is necessary for the proposed new accessory building.
4
G. General site screening and landscaping shall be provided in compliance
with Chapter 21 of this Title.
Existing spruce trees p /anted as a condition of the 1994 conditional use
are located along Klamath Trail (CSAH 5). Two additional 6 foot tall Black
Hills spruce trees were planted on the berm between the parking lot and
Klamath Trail in 2004.
H. All exterior lighting shall be so directed so as not to cast glare toward or
onto the public right of way or neighboring residential uses or districts, and
shall be in compliance with Section 11 -16 -17 of this Title.
There is no exterior lighting on the YMCA property that glares onto right -
of -way or neighboring residential properties. No new lighting is proposed
for the accessory building.
I. Potential exterior noise generated by the use shall be identified and
mitigation measures as may be necessary shall be imposed to ensure
compliance with Section 11 -16 -25 of this Title.
The proposed accessory building will not increase the amount of noise that
has previously been generated from the YMCA property. No additional
mitigation measures are necessary for the proposed accessory building.
J. The site drainage system shall be subject to the review and approval of the
City Engineer.
The proposed site drainage system will not be altered with the proposed
new accessory building.
K. The architectural appearance and functional design of the building and site

be similar to other accessory buildings on the YMCA property. The new
accessory building will be a brown, wood framed and wood sided structure
that will be compatible with the other buildings on the property.

recycling, and trash handling and storage or an outdoor, enclosed
5
receptacle area shall be provided in compliance with Section 11 -18 -11 of
this Title.

requirement.
0. Any applicable business licenses mandated by this Code are approved and
obtained.
No business licenses are required for the YMCA use.
P. The hours of operation may be restricted when there is judged to be an
