Consent Agenda Councilmember Hatfield stated that she had to acknowledge the Election Judges for their important role in the community. She stated she was excited about the architect being chosen for the library and the Riverbend Sellers and Spirits downtown. Mayor Hubbard asked about the bidding process for the North Water Treatment Plant. City Administrator Podhradsky explained that the lowest bid came in at $17 million, which was more than estimated, but within the parameters set for financing. Mayor Hubbard thanked City Administrator Podhradsky and City Staff for weighing all the options. Mayor Hubbard asked about the City Hall Plaza improvement project. City Administrator Podhradsky noted that the estimated budget for that project was $3.5 million, and the actual number came in at $3.6 million. He noted that City Staff were very happy with that number. Mayor Hubbard added that the City Hall Plaza project was part of the building improvement plan all along, but City Staff fast-tracked it after receiving feedback from residents to make it safer. She thanked City Staff for listening to and responding to that feedback from residents.

Motion by Councilmember Hatfield, second by Councilmember Benesh to accept the Downtown Master Plan Task Force appointments. Motion carried. 8.A.i Public Hearing – Assessments for 2026 Downtown Street Reconstruction Project City Administrator Podhradsky introduced Assistant City Engineer Alex Mollenkamp to present this item to the Council. Ms. Mollenkamp presented this project to the Council. Mayor Hubbard noted that the Council has seen this presentation a few times, and the Council identified the next street to reconstruct after receiving neighborhood feedback. ## MINUTES-CHASKA CITY COUNCIL June 15, 2026 PAGE 4 Mayor Hubbard opened the Public Hearing at 7:24 p.m. No one wished to address the Council. Mayor Hubbard closed the Public Hearing at 7:25 p.m. Mayor Hubbard noted that the Council is being asked to adopt Resolution No. 2026-53 after closing the Public Hearing. 8.A.ii. Adopt Resolution No. 2026-53 Adopting the Assessment Roll for the 2026 Street ## Construction Project Motion by Councilmember Sheveland, second by Councilmember Hatfield to adopt Resolution No. 2026-53, adopting the assessment roll for the 2026 Street Reconstruction Project. Mayor Hubbard added that all residents being assessed have been in communication with City Staff and know what to expect. City Administrator Podhradsky stated that this was a project that residents pushed for, because it was the only street the City had not done construction on yet. Mayor Hubbard thanked City Staff for listening to the residents. Motion carried. 8.B. Motion to approve entering into a Letter of Intent with the Community Asset Foundation for the development of The Inn on Stoughton Avenue City Administrator Podhradsky presented this item to the Council. Councilmember Hatfield clarified that there is a property for sale at 947 Stoughton Avenue that is comprised of two lots at the corner of Stoughton and York that are not part of this project. City Administrator Podhradsky confirmed that is correct. The only property involved in this project on Stoughton is the property that the EDA currently has. Councilmember Hatfield asked if this project would affect the trail that was just put in. City Administrator Podhradsky stated that the trail would not have to be moved, as the housing units would be further to the east. Councilmember Hatfield noted that there has been confusion expressed at neighborhood meetings that this project is for low-income housing. She suggested City Staff clarify to residents that this housing will be part of Beyond New Beginnings, and concepts for the properties should blend with existing ones on Stoughton. City Administrator Podhradsky added that this project will include three units instead of four. Councilmember Sheveland asked if the pictures in the packet are of the twin homes, and if the Wormhouse will stay as is. City Administrator Podhradsky noted that the Wormhouse would be moved to Stoughton, as it is currently at St. John’s. Councilmember Sheveland asked if that house is in good condition. City Administrator Podhradsky confirmed that the house is dated but in good condition. ## MINUTES-CHASKA CITY COUNCIL June 15, 2026 PAGE 5 Bob Roepke from the Community Asset Foundation added that there is a neighborhood meeting coming up, and he is open to any ideas to make the housing fit in. He added that in talks with Beyond New Beginnings, building a duplex and moving the Wormhouse to the property will help address the growing need of supporting single young moms in the community that has dealt with homelessness. Mr. Roepke continued that the movers will move the Wormhouse at midnight to Stoughton. Councilmember Sheveland asked if the tenants will still have the opportunity to benefit from community congregation. Mr. Roepke explained that Beyond New Beginnings will still provide counseling and support, and is working on the programming to foster community congregation among them. Councilmember Hatfield noted that this programming is really special because it provides support and counseling to its residents. Councilmember Sheveland added that single mothers can be surrounded by people just like them with children that are similar in age, and support in the community. Councilmember Hatfield asked if the property would be put in a land trust. Mr. Roepke confirmed that is the plan and would follow up with the CDA to get details once the project is completed. He thanked the Council for all their support. Mayor Hubbard thanked Mr. Roepke for answering questions and working with the City Staff when the original plan did not become feasible. City Administrator Podhradsky added that LAHA funds were allocated to help support this project. Mayor Hubbard noted that the legislature designated that a portion of those LAHA funds go towards affordable housing, and these are Chaska's appropriated dollars being used for it. City Administrator Podhradsky stated that previously, all the money used for affordable housing had to be attained through a competitive grant application process, and LAHA funds are designated, which allows the City to make definitive plans for them. Mr. Roepke stated he would be remiss not to recognize the support of Chaska with the money contributed, and would not have the project without them. Motion by Councilmember Grau, second by Councilmember Hatfield to approve entering into a Letter of Intent with the Community Asset Foundation for funding The Inn at Stoughton Avenue. Motion carried. 8.C. Adopt Resolution Nos. 2026-59 & 2026-60 and Ord. No. 1081, Approving the Preliminary Site & Building Plan, Preliminary Plat, Rezoning and Comprehensive Plan Amendment for Big Woods Business Park (BWBP North) – Phase 1/Scannell Properties/PC # 2026-08 City Administrator Podhradsky introduced City Planner Liz Hanson to present this item to the Council. Ms. Hanson presented this item to the Council. ## MINUTES-CHASKA CITY COUNCIL June 15, 2026 PAGE 6 Councilmember Grau asked if the properties shown on D4 are Big Woods, and D1 is on Jonathon Carver Road. Ms. Hanson confirmed that is correct. Councilmember Sheveland asked if this area is across from Fleet Farm. City Administrator Podhradsky noted that this area is between Fleet Farm and Engler Boulevard. Mayor Hubbard asked if the first growth pattern shown is five years. Ms. Hanson confirmed that is correct, the second growth pattern shown is over the course of 20 years. Councilmember Grau stated it is important to mention the Big Woods Boulevard walking and bike path that will be added to enhance safety. He added that he lives in this area, and with the 20-year vision, currently, this is the school path to Carver Elementary, and it is important to finish that space and make it safer. He added it is important to recognize that in 20 years, the City may shift and put a school back into the community by Community Park, because Carver Elementary, long-term, is not the school that serves the space. City Administrator Podhradsky added that the connection on Savannah Way will start this summer and be completed next summer. He noted that the school district is growing again, and some factors may push them to look at adding another school sooner than people might expect. Councilmember Sheveland asked if this project would change any aspects of the park. City Administrator Podhradsky noted that residents have to cross Highway 212 to get from this industrial park to the park, so residents would not see the park. Councilmember Sheveland added that she has never seen traffic patterns from the school on Highway 212 and Highway 41 be detrimental, and this project should not affect traffic either. City Administrator Podhradsky stated that the intersection at County Road 11 and Big Woods Boulevard currently does not work, so any improvements are going to affect traffic for the better. Councilmember Sheveland noted that the improvements should not be a deal breaker for nearby neighborhoods. Councilmember Grau added that he has traffic questions, but will wait until Ms. Hanson gets to that portion of her presentation. Councilmember Grau asked for clarity that the two roundabouts shown do not exist today. Ms. Hanson confirmed that is correct, there will be one added at Big Woods Boulevard and Public Road A, and another at Big Woods Boulevard and County Road 11. Councilmember Sheveland asked if Scannell Properties is buying the whole plot of land, with only one plot sold, and plans for future buildings on this land. Ms. Hanson confirmed that Scannell Properties has control over the majority of the parcels on the north side, and only one end user has been identified for an area. Councilmember Sheveland asked if there was an intent by Scannell Properties to develop the rest of the parcels. Ms. Hanson confirmed that is correct. ## MINUTES-CHASKA CITY COUNCIL June 15, 2026 PAGE 7 Councilmember Grau stated that the right-in, right-out delivery truck lot means that the concern about traffic coming into the neighborhoods to the east would be eliminated. City Administrator Podhradsky noted that the delivery truck lot would have access to the primary road through the industrial park and could enter on the roundabout at the entrance. Councilmember Grau asked if the delivery truck lot is connected to Public Road A. Ms. Hanson confirmed that the delivery truck lot would be connected to Public Road A. Councilmember Grau stated that Public Road A would be primarily used by semi-trucks, and traffic could then occur across Highway 212. City Administrator Podhradsky stated that the City is trying to get funding to support all legs of that interchange, which would be part of the overall improvements on Big Woods Boulevard and would make connectivity to Highway 212 easier. Councilmember Grau asked if residents coming from the south heading north would go through the first roundabout and the second roundabout on the east side of Highway 212. City Administrator Podhradsky noted that currently, that path does not exist, but that is what City Staff are trying to mimic on the other side of the freeway so traffic does not have to go through neighborhoods, and would go through the roundabout. Councilmember Sheveland noted that there are stop lights on Highway 212 from Eden Prairie Road down to Engler, and asked if that will be the plan to add lights on Big Woods Boulevard. City Administrator Podhradsky stated that the City could put more traffic through Big Woods Boulevard with roundabouts than with stop lights. He added that this interchange is different because it was not included as part of the original construction of Highway 212. Mayor Hubbard asked if there are additions for more people needing to go south, and if that would include another off-ramp off the roundabout that is in place. City Administrator Podhradsky confirmed that is correct, and the City purchased all of the right-of-way as part of the initial project. Councilmember Grau noted that the number one concern is going to be semi-trucks coming up Big Woods Boulevard through the neighborhoods on the east side. He asked if it was a fair statement to assume that trucks will not use Big Woods Boulevard, because that is not the most efficient way. Jake Kurth, Scannell Properties, confirmed that is a fair statement. Ms. Hanson added that bigger vehicle traffic is happening on the collector road. City Administrator Podhradsky stated it is more likely that semi-trucks will use Highway 101 as a more direct route. Councilmember Sheveland noted that she has seen semi-trucks barely make it through Powers to get to the new Community Center location due to all the roundabouts. Councilmember Grau stated that the 3,000 daily trips on the road over a 24-hour period are what scare residents, but when looking at the details, it makes sense. ## MINUTES-CHASKA CITY COUNCIL June 15, 2026 PAGE 8 Community Development Director Nate Kabat added that it is difficult to visualize what 3,000 trips means, but Victoria Drive has 3,000 trips per day and is primarily residential traffic. Mayor Hubbard asked if that was the road by the Public Safety campus. Mr. Kabat noted that it was south of there. Councilmember Sheveland stated she has never seen traffic on that road. Mr. Kabat stated that it should give the Council the context of what that kind of traffic looks like. Councilmember Sheveland asked how many trips Highway 41 gets per day. City Administrator Podhradsky noted that it is close to 20,000 trips. Councilmember Hatfield appreciated the Applicant’s efforts to show the Council how the facility would appear from the road from various viewpoints. Jake Kurth, with Scannell Properties and the developer on the project, noted that traffic and the Greenbelt are something the development needs to be respectful of, especially with two large community entrances right there. Mayor Hubbard asked Mr. Kurth to discuss the end user of this project, because there is a lot of curiosity about how many jobs this project will bring to the community. Jason Vangalis, head of Expansion and Economic Development Policy for Amazon, introduced himself. He noted that this project will have two different kinds of jobs: one will include 300 new jobs that are direct employees with full benefits, and the other jobs will include 450 drivers who will work full-time with Amazon's Delivery Service Partner (DSP). Mayor Hubbard asked if the drivers are independent contractors or if the DSP is a company that has employees who work with Amazon. Mr. Vangalis noted that Amazon contracts with the local small business DSP, and the DSP hires the drivers. He added that Amazon will have contracts with multiple DSP’s for the area. Mr. Vangalis added that he will stay on after the project is done and will be a point of contact for the Council if there are any issues. Mayor Hubbard added that she was glad to hear Mr. Vangalis will still be on site as a point of contact after the project is done. Mr. Vangalis added that there are some sustainability initiatives that are unique to this building that they are excited about. Mayor Hubbard appreciated this information, as residents are looking to see if companies are being environmental stewards to their community. Councilmember Sheveland thanked the Applicant and City Staff for all the time spent on the plans and the presentation. She asked if Amazon learned anything when they put a distribution center in Shakopee, which will be utilized in Chaska. Mr. Vangalis noted that the center in ## MINUTES-CHASKA CITY COUNCIL June 15, 2026 PAGE 9 Shakopee is a different type of facility with a much larger employee population and no delivery vans, so it will not operate the same way as the one going into Chaska. Councilmember Sheveland added that she worked for Walmart for a number of years, and the distribution centers are a key part of the business and are located strategically, but they have a huge problem with theft. She asked if there were any plans for security for the facility in Chaska. Mr. Vangalis noted that the facility in Chaska will not carry product for more than 10 hours at a time, and everything will already be packaged. Councilmember Sheveland noted that at the facility in Chaska, the product will just be moved onto a delivery truck. Mr. Vangalis confirmed that it is correct and nothing would be sorted at the facility in Chaska, but the building will be secured with a loss prevention team on site. Councilmember Sheveland asked from a Public Safety perspective if there was a plan in place at the facility. Mr. Vangalis stated that the loss prevention team on-site will work with Chaska's Police Department to ensure that the facility stays safe and secure. Councilmember Grau asked if this facility would enhance any services to residents, such as same-day delivery from Amazon. Mr. Vangalis noted that residents will likely see expanded same-day delivery services. Councilmember Sheveland asked if there would be pickup lockers at the facility. Mr. Vangalis noted that there will not be pickup lockers at the facility. Councilmember Grau noted he has a vested interest in this facility and appreciates the time and effort put in by the Applicant. Mayor Hubbard added that there will always be concerns about the impact of a facility like this on the community, and thanked the Applicant for being there to answer questions and address those concerns. Councilmember Grau added that the connection on the Savannah Way is not completed yet, so there will be additional ways for traffic to flow, along with county road improvements. City Administrator Podhradsky added that all traffic and road system improvements are being made to make it safer and easier for residents. Motion by Councilmember Sheveland, second by Councilmember Hatfield to adopt Resolution No. 2026-59 approving the Preliminary Site & Building Plan and Preliminary Plat for Big Woods ## Business Park (BWBP North) – Building 1/Scannell Properties/PC #2026-08 Motion carried. 8.C.i. Resolution No. 2026-60 Mayor Hubbard asked why this resolution has to go before the Metropolitan Council as well. Mr. Kabat replied that this establishes land use planning for the MUSA area within what has now been annexed into the City of Chaska. ## MINUTES-CHASKA CITY COUNCIL June 15, 2026 PAGE 10 Motion by Councilmember Grau, second by Councilmember Benesh to adopt Resolution No. 2026-60, amending the City of Chaska 2040 Comprehensive Plan to allow conservation (cluster) development in the greenbelt, expand the Metropolitan Urban Services Area (MUSA) boundary, and establish land use guidance (Business Park and Open Space) on the former Dahlgren Township parcels for the property known as Big Woods Business Park (BWBP North) – Building 1. Motion carried. Councilmember Sheveland asked if property that is annexed becomes part of the City limits within Chaska, or if it will always be considered an annexation of Dahlgren. City Administrator Podhradsky stated that it becomes part of the city limits. 8.C.ii. Ordinance No. 1081 Motion by Councilmember Benesh, second by Councilmember Hatfield to adopt Ordinance No. 1081, amending Ordinance No. 229 (Zoning Ordinance) of the City of Chaska by rezoning certain real estate within the city of Chaska. Motion carried. 8.D. Adopt Resolution No. 2026-57 ratifying the sale of Chaska EDA Series 2026A Bonds City Administrator Podhradsky introduced Administrator Services Director Noel Graczyk to present this item. Mr. Graczyk presented this item to the Council. Councilmember Sheveland stated Staff should have taken the analysts to the Community Center in order to get another bond for the roof. Mr. Graczyk noted that the analysts were taken to the Community Center, and the roof was discussed as a future plan, as the building program is the current focus. Councilmember Sheveland asked if the bonding tour that was previously discussed with officials for City Square West was related to this bonding issuance. Mr. Graczyk stated that those projects were not a part of this bonding. Mayor Hubbard thanked Mr. Graczyk for the presentation and for breaking down the three entities of this particular bond sale. Motion by Councilmember Hatfield, second by Councilmember Grau to adopt Resolution No. 2026-57 Ratifying the Sale of Lease Revenue Bonds, Series 2026A by the Economic Development Authority of the City of Chaska, Minnesota, and Authorizing Execution of Related Documents.

Accounts Payable Claims Roster 06-15-2026 ## MINUTES-CHASKA CITY COUNCIL June 15, 2026 PAGE 11 Councilmember Hatfield asked if the door access wiring and readers are going to be fobs. City Administrator Podhradsky noted they will have fobs now. Mayor Hubbard asked how often the City has to do beaver relocation or removal. City Administrator Podhradsky noted that it happens often near the wooden boardwalk on the north side of the lake at Firemen’s Park, and they have to be relocated due to how destructive they are. Councilmember Sheveland asked if that is what has been taking down all the trees on the north side. City Administrator Podhradsky confirmed that it was due to beavers. Motion by Mayor Hubbard, second by Councilmember Benesh to approve the bills as presented. Roll call was taken. Voting aye: Councilmembers Hatfield, Benesh, Sheveland, Grau, and Mayor ## Hubbard.
