Background
The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) developed this
document to assist you with the requirements of the MPCA’s
Authorization to Discharge Stormwater Associated with small MS4s
under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System/State
Disposal System (NPDES/SDS) Permit (MS4 Permit). The MS4 Permit
requires your regulatory mechanism to be as stringent as the MPCA’s
Authorization to Discharge Stormwater Associated with Construction
Activity under the NPDES/SDS Program (Construction Stormwater
Permit) for erosion, sediment, and waste controls. Your written
procedure must include a checklist or other written means to
document each site inspection you conduct (MS4 Permit Part
III.D.4.d.(4) and Part III.D.4.f.(2)). You must retain these
documents for three years beyond the term of the MS4 Permit (MS4
Permit Part IV.C.). This document was developed to simplify the
Construction Stormwater Permit requirements for erosion, sediment,
and waste controls into a checklist format for inspectors to use.
The original Construction Stormwater Permit language is included on
the "MPCA Permit Requirements" worksheet for your reference.
Using the Checklist
The "Checklist" worksheet is provided as guidance only. You may add
more fields for your internal use. You may also use any other form
or method to document construction site inspections.

Additional notes and photos
1
The Permittee(s) must plan for and implement appropriate BMPs such
as construction phasing, vegetative buffer strips, horizontal slope
grading, inspection and maintenance of Part IV.E. and other
construction practices that minimize erosion as necessary to comply
with this permit and protect waters of the state. The location of
areas not to be disturbed must be delineated (e.g., with flags,
stakes, signs, silt fence etc.) on the project site before work
begins. The Permittee(s) must minimize the need for disturbance of
portions of the project that have steep slopes. For those sloped
areas which must be disturbed, the Permittee(s) must use techniques
such as phasing and stabilization practices designed for steep
slopes (e.g., slope draining and terracing). [Part IV. B. 1]
2
The Permittee(s) must stabilize all exposed soil areas (including
stockpiles). Stabilization must be initiated immediately to limit
soil erosion whenever any construction activity has permanently or
temporarily ceased on any portion of the site and will not resume
for a period exceeding 14 calendar days. Stabilization must be
completed no later than 14 calendar days after the construction
activity in that portion of the site has temporarily or permanently
ceased. For Public Waters that the Minnesota Department of Natural
Resources has promulgated “work in water restrictions” during
specified fish spawning time frames, all exposed soil areas that
are within 200 feet of the water’s edge, and drain to these waters
must complete the stabilization activities within 24 hours during
the restriction period. Temporary stockpiles without significant
silt, clay or organic components (e.g., clean aggregate stockpiles,
demolition concrete stockpiles, sand stockpiles) and the
constructed base components of roads, parking lots and similar
surfaces are exempt from this requirement but must be in compliance
with Part IV.C.5 [Part IV. B. 2] Stabilization of all exposed soil
areas must be initiated immediately to limit soil erosion but in no
case completed later than seven (7) days after the construction
activity in that portion of the site has temporarily or permanently
ceased. [Appendix A C.1.a]
3
If using stormwater conveyance channels ,the Permittee(s) must
design the channels to route water around unstabilized areas on the
site and to reduce erosion, unless infeasible. The Permittee(s)
must use erosion controls and velocity dissipation devices such as
check dams, sediment traps, riprap, or grouted riprap at outlets
within and along the length of any constructed stormwater
conveyance channel, and at any outlet, to provide a nonerosive flow
velocity, to minimize erosion of channels and their embankments,
outlets, adjacent stream banks, slopes, and downstream waters
during discharge conditions. [Part IV. B. 3]
4
The Permittee(s) must stabilize the normal wetted perimeter of any
temporary or permanent drainage ditch or swale that drains water
from any portion of the construction site, or diverts water around
the site, within 200 lineal feet from the property edge, or from
the point of discharge into any surface water. Stabilization of the
last 200 lineal feet must be completed within 24 hours after
connecting to a surface water or property edge. The Permittee(s)
shall complete stabilization of the remaining portions of any
temporary or permanent ditches or swales within 14 calendar days
after connecting to a surface water or property edge and
construction in that portion of the ditch has temporarily or
permanently ceased. Temporary or permanent ditches or swales that
are being used as a sediment containment system during construction
(with properly designed rockditch checks, bio rolls, silt dikes,
etc.) do not need to be stabilized during the temporary period of
its use as a sediment containment system. These areas must be
stabilized within 24 hours after no longer being used as a sediment
containment system. Applying mulch, hydromulch, tackifier,
polyacrylamide or similar erosion prevention practices is not
acceptable stabilization in any part of a temporary or permanent
drainage ditch or swale. [Part IV. B. 4]
5
Pipe outlets must be provided with temporary or permanent energy
dissipation within 24 hours after connection to a surface water.
[Part IV. B. 5]
6
Unless infeasible due to lack of pervious or vegetated areas, the
Permittee(s) must direct discharges from BMPs to vegetated areas of
the site (including any natural buffers) in order to increase
sediment removal and maximize stormwater infiltration. The
Permittee(s) must use velocity dissipation devices if necessary to
prevent erosion when directing stormwater to vegetated areas.
[(MNR100001) Part IV. B. 6]
7
The Permittee(s) must employ Sediment control practices as
necessary to minimize sediment from entering surface waters,
including curb and gutter systems and storm sewer inlets. a.
Temporary or permanent drainage ditches and sediment basins that
are designed as part of a sediment containment system (e.g.,
ditches with rockcheck dams) require sediment control practices
only as appropriate for site conditions. b. If the down gradient
sediment controls are overloaded (based on frequent failure or
excessive maintenance requirement), the Permittee(s) must install
additional upgradient sediment control practices or redundant BMPs
to eliminate the overloading, and the SWPPP must be amended to
identify these additional practices as required in Part III.B 1.3.
[Part IV.C.1.]
8
Sediment control practices must be established on all down gradient
perimeters and be located upgradient of any buffer zones. The
perimeter sediment control practice must be in place before any
upgradient landdisturbing activities begin. These practices shall
remain in place until Final Stabilization has been established in
accordance with Part IV.G. A floating silt curtain
placed in the water is not a sediment control BMP to satisfy
perimeter control requirements in this part except when working on
a shoreline and below the waterline. In those cases, a
floating silt curtain can be used as a perimeter control practice
if the floating silt curtain is installed as close to shore as
possible. Immediately after the short term construction activity
(e.g. installation of rip rap along the shoreline) in that area is
complete, an upland perimeter control practice must be installed if
exposed soils still drain to the surface water. [Part IV. C.
2]
9
The Permittee(s) shall reinstall all sediment control practices
that have been adjusted or removed to accommodate shortterm
activities such as clearing or grubbing, or passage of vehicles,
immediately after the shortterm activity has been completed. The
Permittee(s) shall complete any shortterm activity that requires
removal of sediment control practices as quickly as possible. The
Permittee(s) must reinstall sediment control practices before the
next precipitation event even if the shortterm activity is not
complete. [Part IV.C.3.]
10
All storm drain inlets must be protected by appropriate BMPs during
construction until all sources with potential for discharging to
the inlet have been stabilized. Inlet protection may be removed for
a particular inlet if a specific safety concern (street
flooding/freezing) has been identified by the Permittee(s) or the
jurisdictional authority (e.g., city/county/township/MnDOT
engineer).The Permittee(s) must document the need for removal in
the SWPPP. [Part IV. C. 4]
11
Temporary soil stockpiles must have silt fence or other effective
sediment controls, and cannot be placed in any natural buffers or
surface waters, including stormwater conveyances such as curb and
gutter systems, or conduits and ditches unless there is a bypass in
place for the stormwater. [Part IV. C. 5]
12
Where vehicle traffic leaves any part of the site (or onto paved
roads within the site): a. The Permittee(s) must install a vehicle
tracking BMP to minimize the track out of sediment from the
construction site. Examples of vehicle tracking BMPs include (but
are not limited to) rock pads, mud mats, slash mulch, concrete or
steel wash racks, or equivalent systems. b. The Permittee(s) must
use street sweeping if such vehicle tracking BMPs are not adequate
to prevent sediment from being tracked onto the street (see Part
IV.E.5.d.). [Part IV. C. 6]
13
The Permittee(s) must minimize soil compaction and, unless
infeasible, preserve topsoil. Minimizing soil
compaction is not required where the function of a specific area of
the site dictates that it be compacted. [Part IV. C.
8]
14
The Permittee(s) must preserve a 50 foot natural buffer or (if a
buffer is infeasible on the site) provide redundant sediment
controls when a surface water is located within 50 feet of the
project’s earth disturbances and stormwater flows to the surface
water. Natural buffers are not required adjacent to road ditches,
judicial ditches, county ditches, stormwater conveyance channels,
storm drain inlets, and sediment basins. The Permittee(s) is/are
not required to enhance the quality of the vegetation that already
exists in the buffer or provide vegetation if none exist. However,
Permittee(s) can improve the natural buffer with vegetation. [Part
IV. C. 9]
15
If the Permittee(s) intend to use polymers, flocculants, or other
sedimentation treatment chemicals on the project site, the
Permittee(s) must comply with the following minimum requirements:
a. The Permittee(s) must use conventional erosion and sediment
controls prior to chemical addition to ensure effective treatment.
Chemicals may only be applied where treated stormwater is directed
to a sediment control system which allows for filtration or
settlement of the floc prior to discharge. b. Chemicals must be
selected that are appropriately suited to the types of soils likely
to be exposed during construction, and to the expected turbidity,
pH, and flow rate of stormwater flowing into the chemical treatment
system or area. c. Chemicals must be used in accordance with
accepted engineering practices, and with dosing specifications and
sediment removal design specifications provided by the manufacturer
or provider/supplier of the applicable chemicals. [Part IV. C.
10]
16
The Permittee(s) must inspect all erosion prevention and sediment
control BMPs and Pollution Prevention Management Measures to ensure
integrity and effectiveness during all routine and postrainfall
event nspections. All nonfunctional BMPs must be repaired,
replaced, or supplemented with functional BMPs by the end of the
next business day after discovery, or as soon as field conditions
allow access unless another time frame is specified below. The
Permittee(s) must investigate and comply with the following
inspection and maintenance requirements: [(MNR100001) Part IV. D.
5] All perimeter control devices must be repaired, replaced,
or supplemented when they become nonfunctional or the sediment
reaches onehalf (1/2) of the height of the device. These repairs
must be made by the end of the next business day after discovery,
or thereafter as soon as field conditions allow access. [Part IV.
D. 5. a.]
17
All perimeter control devices must be repaired, replaced, or
supplemented when they become nonfunctional or the sediment reaches
onehalf (1/2) of the height of the device. These repairs must be
made by the end of the next business day after discovery, or
thereafter as soon as field conditions allow access. [Part IV. D.
5. a.]
18
Surface waters, including drainage ditches and conveyance systems,
must be inspected for evidence of erosion and sediment deposition
during each inspection. The Permittee(s) must remove all deltas and
sediment deposited in surface waters, including drainage ways,
catch basins, and other drainage systems, and restabilize the areas
where sediment removal results in exposed soil. The removal and
stabilization must take place within seven (7) days of discovery
unless precluded by legal, regulatory, or physical access
constraints. The Permittee(s) shall use all reasonable efforts to
obtain access. If precluded, removal and stabilization must take
place within seven (7) calendar days of obtaining access. The
Permittee(s) is/are responsible for contacting all local, regional,
state and federal authorities and receiving any applicable permits,
prior to conducting any work in surface waters. [Part IV. D. 5.
c.]
19
Construction site vehicle exit locations must be inspected for
evidence of offsite sediment tracking onto paved surfaces. Tracked
sediment must be removed from all paved surfaces both on and off
site within 24 hours of discovery, or if applicable, within a
shorter time to comply with Part IV.C.6. e. Streets and other areas
adjacent to the project must be inspected for evidence of offsite
accumulations of sediment. If sediment is present, it must be
removed in a manner and at a frequency sufficient to minimize
offsite impacts (e.g., fugitive sediment in streets could be washed
into storm sewers by the next rain and/or pose a safety hazard to
users of public streets). [Part IV. D. 5. d. & e.]
20
All infiltration areas must be inspected to ensure that no sediment
from ongoing construction activity is reaching the infiltration
area. All infiltration areas must be inspected to ensure that
equipment is not being driven across the infiltration area. [Part
IV. D. 6.]
21
The Permittee(s) must ensure that a trained person (as identified
in Part III.A.3.a.) will routinely inspect the entire construction
site at least once every seven (7) days during active construction
and within 24 hours after a rainfall event greater than 0.5 inches
in 24 hours. Following an inspection that occurs within 24 hours
after a rainfall event, the next inspection must be conducted
within seven (7) days after the rainfall event. 2. All inspections
and maintenance conducted during construction must be recorded
within 24 hours in writing and these records must be retained with
the SWPPP in accordance with Part III.E. Records of each inspection
and maintenance activity shall include: a. Date and time of
inspections b. Name of person(s) conducting inspections c. Findings
of inspections, including the specific location where corrective
actions are needed d. Corrective actions taken (including dates,
times, and party completing maintenance activities) e. Date and
amount of all rainfall events greater than 1/2 inch (0.5 inches) in
24 hours. Rainfall amounts must be obtained by a properly
maintained rain gauge installed onsite, a weather station that is
within 1 mile of your location or a weather reporting system that
provides site specific rainfall data from radar summaries. f. If
any discharge is observed to be occurring during the inspection, a
record of all points of the property from which there is a
discharge must be made, and the discharge should be described
(i.e., color, odor, floating, settled, or suspended solids, foam,
oil sheen, and other obvious indicators of pollutants) and
photographed. g. Any amendments to the SWPPP proposed as a result
of the inspection must be documented as required in Part III.B.
within seven (7) calendar days. [Part IV. E. 1 &
2.]
22
Storage, Handling, and Disposal of Construction Products,
Materials, and Wastes: The Permittee(s) shall comply with the
following to minimize the exposure to stormwater of any of the
products, materials, or wastes. Products or wastes which are either
not a source of contamination to stormwater or are designed to be
exposed to stormwater are not held to this requirement: a. Building
products that have the potential to leach pollutants must be under
cover (e.g., plastic sheeting or temporary roofs) to prevent the
discharge of pollutants or protected by a similarly effective means
designed to minimize contact with stormwater. b. Pesticides,
herbicides, insecticides, fertilizers, treatment chemicals, and
landscape materials must be under cover (e.g., plastic sheeting or
temporary roofs) to prevent the discharge of pollutants or
protected by similarly effective means designed to minimize contact
with stormwater. [Part IV. F. 1. a. & b.]
23
Hazardous materials, toxic waste, (including oil, diesel fuel,
gasoline, hydraulic fluids, paint solvents, petroleumbased
products, wood preservatives, additives, curing compounds, and
acids) must be properly stored in sealed containers to prevent
spills, leaks or other discharge. Restricted access storage areas
must be provided to prevent vandalism. Storage and disposal of
hazardous waste or hazardous materials must be in compliance with
Minn. R. ch. 7045 including secondary containment as applicable. d.
Solid waste must be stored, collected and disposed of properly in
compliance with Minn. R. ch. 7035. [Part IV. F. 1. a. &
b.]
24
Portable toilets must be positioned so that they are secure and
will not be tipped or knocked over. Sanitary waste must be disposed
of properly in accordance with Minn. R. ch. 7041. [Part IV. F. 1.
e.]
25
Fueling and Maintenance of Equipment or Vehicles; Spill Prevention
and Response: The Permittee(s) shall take reasonable steps to
prevent the discharge of spilled or leaked chemicals, including
fuel, from any area where chemicals or fuel will be loaded or
unloaded including the use of drip pans or absorbents unless
infeasible. The Permittee(s) must conduct fueling in a contained
area unless infeasible. The Permittee(s) must ensure adequate
supplies are available at all times to clean up discharged
materials and that an appropriate disposal method is available for
recovered spilled materials. The Permittee(s) must report and clean
up spills immediately as required by Minn. Stat. § 115.061, using
dry clean up measures where possible. [Part IV. F. 2.]
26
Vehicle and equipment washing: If the Permittee(s) wash the
exterior of vehicles or equipment on the project site, washing must
be limited to a defined area of the site. Runoff from the washing
area must be contained in a sediment basin or other similarly
effective controls and waste from the washing activity must be
properly disposed of. The Permittee(s) must properly use and store
soaps, detergents, or solvents. No engine degreasing is allowed on
site. [Part IV. F. 3.]
27
Concrete and other washouts waste: The Permittee(s) must provide
effective containment for all liquid and solid wastes generated by
washout operations (concrete, stucco, paint, form release oils,
curing compounds and other construction materials) related to the
construction activity. The liquid and solid washout wastes must not
contact the ground, and the containment must be designed so that it
does not result in runoff from the washout operations or areas.
Liquid and solid wastes must be disposed of properly and in
compliance with MPCA rules. A sign must be installed adjacent to
each washout facility that requires site personnel to utilize the
proper facilities for disposal of concrete and other washout
wastes. [Part IV. F. 4.]
28
The owner must develop a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
(SWPPP). The SWPPP shall be completed prior to submitting any
permit application and prior to conducting any construction
activity by any required Permittee(s). For stormwater discharges
from construction activity where the owner or operator changes, the
new owner or operator can implement the original SWPPP created for
the project, modify the original SWPPP, or develop and implement
their own SWPPP. Permittee(s) shall ensure either directly or
through coordination with other Permittee(s) that their SWPPP meets
all terms and conditions of this permit and that their activities
do not render another party’s erosion prevention and sediment
control BMPs ineffective. [Part III. A]
29
Where a project’s ultimate development replaces vegetation and/or
other pervious surfaces with one (1) or more acres of cumulative
impervious surface, the Permittee(s) must design the project so
that the water quality volume of one (1) inch of runoff from the
new impervious surfaces created by the project is retained on site
(i.e. infiltration or other volume reduction practices) and not
discharged to a surface water. For purposes of this part, surface
waters does not include manmade drainage systems that convey
stormwater to a compliant permanent stormwater management system.
[Part III. D]
30
Where ten (10) or more acres of disturbed soil drain to a common
location, the Permittee(s) must provide a temporary sediment basin
to provide treatment to the runoff before it leaves the
construction site or enters surface waters. A temporary sediment
basin may be converted to a permanent basin after construction is
complete. The temporary basin is no longer required when permanent
cover has reduced the acreage of disturbed soil to less than ten
(10) acres draining to a common location. The Permittee(s) is/are
encouraged, but not required, to install temporary sediment basins
where appropriate in areas with steep slopes or highly erodible
soils even if less than ten (10) acres drains to one area.[Part
III. C] Temporary sediment basin requirements described in Part
III.C. must be used for common drainage locations that serve an
area with five (5) or more acres disturbed at one time. [Appendix A
C.1.a]
31
The outlet structure must be designed to withdraw water from the
surface in order to minimize the discharge of pollutants, except
that the use of a surface withdrawal mechanism for discharge of the
basin may be temporarily suspended during frozen conditions. Energy
dissipation must be provided for the basin outlet (see Part
IV.B.5.). [Part III. C.3.]
32
The basin must be designed with the ability to allow complete basin
drawdown for maintenance activities, and must include a stabilized
emergency overflow to prevent failure of pond integrity. [Part III.
C.3.]
33
Temporary and permanent sedimentation basins must be drained and
the sediment removed when the depth of sediment collected in the
basin reaches onehalf (1/2) the storage volume. Drainage and
removal must be completed within 72 hours of discovery, or as soon
as field conditions allow access (see Part IV.D.). [Part IV. D.
5.b.]
34
The Permittee(s) must discharge turbid or sedimentladen waters
related to dewatering or basin draining (e.g., pumped discharges,
trench/ditch cuts for drainage) to a temporary or permanent
sedimentation basin on the project site unless infeasible. The
Permittee(s) may discharge from the temporary or permanent
sedimentation basins to surface waters if the basin water has been
visually checked to ensure adequate treatment has been obtained in
the basin and that nuisance conditions (see Minn. R. 7050.0210,
subp. 2) will not result from the discharge. If the water cannot be
discharged to a sedimentation basin prior to entering the surface
water, it must be treated with the appropriate BMPs, such that the
discharge does not adversely affect the receiving water or
downstream properties. If the Permittee(s) must discharge water
that contains oil or grease, the Permittee(s) must use an oilwater
separator or suitable filtration device (e.g. cartridge filters,
absorbents pads) prior to discharging the water. The Permittee(s)
must ensure that discharge points are adequately protected from
erosion and scour. The discharge must be dispersed over natural
rock riprap, sand bags, plastic sheeting, or other accepted energy
dissipation measures. [Part IV. D. 1.]
35
All water from dewatering or basindraining activities must be
discharged in a manner that does not cause nuisance conditions,
erosion in receiving channels or on downslope properties, or
inundation in wetlands causing significant adverse impact to the
wetland. [Part IV. D. 2.]
36
If the Permittee(s) is/are using filters with backwash water, the
Permittee(s) must haul the backwash water away for disposal, return
the backwash water to the beginning of the treatment process, or
incorporate the backwash water into the site in a manner that does
not cause erosion. The Permittee(s) may discharge backwash water to
the sanitary sewer if permission is granted by the sanitary sewer
authority. The Permittee(s) must replace and clean the
filter media used in dewatering devices when required to retain
adequate function. [Part IV. D. 3.]
37
For Public Waters that the Minnesota Department of Natural
Resources has promulgated “work in water restrictions” during
specified fish spawning time frames, all exposed soil areas that
are within 200 feet of the water’s edge, and drain to these waters
must complete the stabilization activities within 24 hours during
the restriction period. Temporary stockpiles without significant
silt, clay or organic components (e.g., clean aggregate stockpiles,
demolition concrete stockpiles, sand stockpiles) and the
constructed base components of roads, parking lots and similar
surfaces are exempt from this requirement but must be in compliance
with Part IV.C.5 [(MNR100001) Part IV. B. 2] Stabilization of all
exposed soil areas must be initiated immediately to limit soil
erosion but in no case completed later than seven (7) days after
the construction activity in that portion of the site has
temporarily or permanently ceased. [(MNR100001) Appendix A
C.1.a]
38
Buffer zone: The Permittee(s) shall include an undisturbed buffer
zone of not less than 100 linear feet from the special water (not
including tributaries) and this buffer zone shall be maintained at
all times, both during construction and as a permanent feature post
construction, except where a water crossing or other encroachment
is necessary to complete the project. The Permittee(s) must fully
document the circumstance and reasons that the buffer encroachment
is necessary in the SWPPP and include restoration activities.
Replacement of existing impervious surface within the buffer is
allowed under this permit. All potential water quality, scenic and
other environmental impacts of these exceptions must be minimized
by the use of additional or redundant BMPs and documented in the
SWPPP for the project. [Appendix A C.3.]
39
Temporary sediment basin requirements described in Part III.C. must
be used for common drainage locations that serve an area with five
(5) or more acres disturbed at one time. [Appendix A C.1.a]
40
All soil disturbing activities at the site have been completed and
all soils are stabilized by a uniform perennial vegetative cover
with a density of 70 percent of its expected final growth density
over the entire pervious surface area, or other equivalent means
necessary to prevent soil failure under erosive conditions. [Part
IV. G. 5.1.]
41
42
Temporary or permanent sedimentation basins that are to be used as
permanent water quality management basins have been cleaned of any
accumulated sediment. All sediment has been removed from conveyance
systems and ditches are stabilized with permanent cover. [Part IV.
G. 5.2.]
43
All temporary synthetic and structural erosion prevention and
sediment control BMPs (such as silt fence) have been removed on the
portions of the site for which the Permittee(s) is/are responsible.
BMPs designed to decompose on site (such as some compost logs) may
be left in place. [Part IV. G. 5.3.]
44
For residential construction only, individual lots are considered
finally stabilized if the structure(s) are finished and temporary
erosion protection and downgradient perimeter control has been
completed and the residence has been sold to the homeowner.
Additionally, the Permittee has distributed the MPCA’s “Homeowner
Fact Sheet” to the homeowner to inform the homeowner of the need
for, and benefits of, permanent cover. [Part IV. G. 4.]
45
For construction projects on agricultural land (e.g., pipelines
across crop, field pasture or range land) the disturbed land has
been returned to its preconstruction agricultural use. [Part IV. G.
4.]

MEMORANDUM
TO: Joe Hogeboom, Director of Community and Economic Development
FROM: John Hagen, P.E., PTOE, Transportation Operations Engineer
DATE: March 24, 2021 SUBJECT: Shake Shack Traffic and Parking Study
– City Review Comments The purpose of this memorandum is to
summarize my review of Westwood’s memo, dated March 23, 2021 that
summarizes the trip generation, drive-through analysis, and parking
analysis that was completed for the proposed Shake Shack located in
an existing outlot of the Shoppes at Arbor Lakes development.
Review Comments I have reviewed the Westwood memo dated March 23,
2021 that summarizes their trip generation, drive-through queuing,
and parking analysis, and offer the following comments. A copy of
Westwood’s Shake Shack Traffic and Parking Study memo is
attached.
1. Trip Generation:
a. The proposed 3,200 SF restaurant is anticipated to generate
approximately 1,500 trips on an average weekday with 163 trips
occurring during the a.m. peak hour (85 inbound and 78 outbound
trips), and 164 trips occurring during the a.m. peak hour (83
inbound and 81 outbound trips). It is anticipated that the
restaurant’s peak period will occur during the midday on Saturdays.
During this Saturday midday peak hour, the proposed restaurant will
likely generate approximately 432 trips (216 inbound and 216
outbound).
b. The trip generation assumptions are reasonable and acceptable
given the fact that they were based on the trip generation
estimates for a fast-food restaurant with a drive-through provided
in the 10th Edition of the Institute of Transportation Engineers
Trip Generation Manual.
2. Trip Distribution and Assignment:
a. The traffic study assumed that 85 percent of the traffic to/from
the restaurant would enter the site from Elm Creek Boulevard, while
15 percent would enter the site from other nearby roadways (i.e. –
Main Street to the west and south, and Hemlock Lane to the
east).
b. The trip distribution assumptions are reasonable and consistent
with past traffic studies that have been conducted within the
vicinity of the proposed development.
Shake Shack Traffic and Parking Study – City Review Comments March
24, 2021 Page 2
c. A review of the total trip assignment shown in Figure 5 of the
Shake Shack Traffic and Parking Study memo revealed that the
proposed restaurant will add less than one (1) vehicle per minute
to any of the turning movements in/out of the Shoppes at Arbor
Lakes development at the signalized Elm Creek Boulevard
intersection with the Mall/Great River Energy Entrance.
d. Recent traffic analysis of the signalized intersection of Elm
Creek Boulevard with the Mall/Great River Energy Entrance revealed
that it currently operates at an acceptable level of service (LOS)
C during the weekday p.m. peak.
e. Since the key intersection of Elm Creek Boulevard with the
Mall/Great River Energy Entrance currently operates at an
acceptable LOS C during the weekday p.m., and the proposed Shake
Shack will likely add less than one additional vehicle to any
turning movements in/out of the Shoppes at Arbor Lakes during the
peak hour, a detailed operational analysis is not required on the
public roadway system.
3. Drive-Through Queuing Analysis:
a. The drive-through queuing analysis used that same methodology
that was used for a Chick-fil-A restaurant in Washington State that
has a similar dual-lane drive- through configuration as the
proposed Maple Grove Shake Shack.
b. The queueing analysis methodology is acceptable and the results
seem reasonable.
c. The anticipated 95th-percentile queue length of 12 vehicles at
the drive-through is consistent with the City’s expectation (12 to
14 vehicles) for similar restaurants with drive throughs.
d. The proposed on-site drive-through queue storage of 16 vehicles
is sufficient to accommodate the typical demand (12 vehicles) of
the proposed Shake Shack .
e. The City appreciates that the applicant has developed a traffic
management plan to deal with the potential times when the
drive-through demand exceeds the proposed on-site drive-through
queue storage. The proposed traffic management plan should help to
minimize the likelihood of the drive- through spilling back onto
the shopping center’s northern internal circulatory road (see
attached Shake Shack memo dated 3/16/2021).
4. Parking Analysis:
a. The existing parking field where the Shake Shack restaurant is
proposed to be constructed contains 344 parking spaces. The
construction of the restaurant will remove 79 parking spaces
leaving 265 parking spaces for the proposed restaurant, the
existing Red Lobster, and the existing Building “A” of the Shoppes
at Arbor Lakes.
b. An existing easement agreement with Red Lobster requires that at
least 264 parking spaces are required to be maintained in this
parking field. The remaining 265 parking spaces provides one more
than what is required in this agreement.
Shake Shack Traffic and Parking Study – City Review Comments March
24, 2021 Page 3
c. The Traffic and Parking Study estimates that the proposed Shake
Shack and existing Building “A” have a peak parking demand of 198
parking spaces.
i. The Traffic and Parking Study states that the proposed
restaurant will require 28 of these remaining 265 parking
spaces.
ii. Using parking demand numbers form ITE’s Parking Generation
Manual, the 46,873 SF Building “A” has a peak parking demand of 170
parking spaces.
d. The parking analysis is acceptable and the City agrees with the
findings that the existing parking field (even after a loss of
parking due to the proposed Shake Shack) is adequate for the
estimated demand.

Date: March 23, 2021 Re: Shoppes at Arbor Lakes Outlot – Response
to Traffic Comments File #0024684.00 To: John Hagen, P.E., PTOE,
City of Maple Grove Transportation Operations Engineer From: Paul
Villaluz, P.E., PTOE, RSP1
This memorandum has been prepared as a response to comments for the
Shoppes at Arbor Lakes Outlot project that were listed in an e-mail
from the City of Maple Grove dated March 1, 2021. Further comments
from the City of Maple Grove were received in an e-mail dated March
4, 2021 and an e-mail dated March 23, 2021. All of the City of
Maple Grove e-mails are included in Appendix A. This memorandum
will contain the following:
• Trip Generation Analysis • Drive-Through Queuing Analysis •
Parking Analysis
The Shoppes at Arbor Lakes Outlot project will be developed as a
Shake Shack restaurant with double drive-through lanes. A
Preliminary Site Plan is included as Appendix E.
Trip Generation
The 10th Edition of the Institute of Transportation Engineers’
(ITE) Trip Generation Manual was used to estimate the number of
vehicle trips that could be generated by the project. This manual
is a standard reference used by municipalities and public agencies
throughout the United States. The trip generation characteristics
included in the manual are summarized by general land use type and
are based on actual trip generation studies performed at numerous
locations in areas of various populations.
There is no trip generation available for a Shake Shack restaurant
with double drive-through lanes. Trip generation for the proposed
Shoppes at Arbor Lakes Outlot project is based on average rate
equations for the peak hour of generation for a Fast-Food
Restaurant with Drive- Through (ITE Land Use Code 934). The
resulting trip generation is summarized in Table 1. Calculations
are provided in Appendix B.

Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation, 10th
Edition
ITE defines pass-by trips as trips that are “made as intermediate
stops on the way from an origin to a primary trip destination
without a route diversion”. Pass-by trips are attracted from
traffic passing the site on an adjacent street or roadway that
offers direct access to the generator. ITE has identified the
following pass-by trip rates for the land uses below:
• Fast-Food Restaurant with Drive-Through Window (ITE Land Use
934)
o 49% during the AM peak hour and 50% during the PM peak hour
The pass-by trip rates summarized above were applied to the project
trips summarized in Table 1, with the resultant pass-by trip
generation for the Shoppes at Arbor Lakes Outlot project summarized
in Table 2.

The primary trips added to the surrounding street network are
summarized in Table 3. These primary trips were calculated by
subtracting the pass-by trips in Table 2 from the project trips in
Table 1. Primary trips are the net new trips added to the
surrounding street network.

Trip Distribution
The directional distribution of project traffic quantifies the
percentage of project-generated traffic that arrives and departs
the project site in each direction by type of use. This project
includes uses that generate primary and pass-by project trips. The
primary trip distribution quantifies the percentage of
site-generated traffic that generally arrives and departs the
project site along the same route. Primary trips are new trips to
the street network and project driveways. Figure 1 illustrates the
anticipated primary project trip distribution for the Shoppes at
Arbor Lakes Outlot project. The primary trip distribution is based
on anticipated access restrictions and internal circulation through
each project driveway, anticipated trip origins and destinations
with the surrounding areas, and engineering judgment.
The pass-by trip distribution quantifies the percentage of
site-generated traffic that makes intermediate stops on the way
from an origin to a primary trip destination without a route
diversion. Figure 2 illustrates the anticipated pass-by project
distribution during the AM and PM peak hours. Pass-by trips are
attracted from traffic passing the site on an adjacent street or
roadway such as Elm Creek Boulevard that offers direct access to
the generator. Therefore, they generally divert from their original
direction of travel into the project site and then exit the site
and continue in their original direction of travel. Pass-by trips
are not new trips to the street network but they are new project
driveway trips. The pass-by trip distribution was based on the
anticipated trip distribution at the intersection of Elm Creek
Boulevard and the Mall Entrance.
Trip Assignment
Project traffic assignment was calculated by applying the pass-by
trip distribution percentages found in Figure 2 to the pass-by
project trip generation found in Table 2 and the primary trip
distribution percentages found in Figure 1 to the primary project
trip generation found in Table 3. The resulting traffic assignments
at the intersections are illustrated in Figure 3 for the primary
trip assignment and Figure 4 for the pass-by trip assignment. The
total traffic assignment is provided in Figure 5.
Queuing Analysis
The methodologies outlined in the attached Traffic Impact Analysis
for a Chick-fil-A restaurant with double drive-through lanes in
Fircrest, Washington (see Appendix C) were used for the purpose of
estimating the anticipated drive-through storage needs.
The average queue storage length was calculated using the following
equation for a M/M/1 queue model:
Average Queue Length (veh) = 2
1− ;
ρ = λ / μ
0024684.00
The 95th Percentile Queue Length (veh) is calculated as a function
of the Average Queue Length with the following equation from Paper
No. 01-2019 of Transportation Research Record 1776.
95% = 1.3 + 2.1√ +
+ 4.6
where L = Average Queue Length (veh)
The future drive-through queue calculations for this restaurant are
listed in Table 4. It is assumed that 80% of the vehicles that
arrive during the worst-case peak hour (AM peak hour) will use the
drive-through lanes.
Service time is defined as the amount of time that a vehicle spends
at the window completing a transaction and receiving their order
and the “move up” time. This includes time to pay, time to receive
the food order, and the time for the next vehicle to move up to the
pick-up window. A 45-second service time is assumed for the AM peak
hour based on the Chick-fil-A TIA.
Table 4 – Shoppes at Arbor Lakes Outlot Future Drive-Through Queue
Calculations
80% of #
68 60 1.1 45 1.3 0.85 5 12
The project site plan included in Appendix E illustrates a queue
storage of 220 feet on the inside lane and 184 feet on the outside
lane. The proposed queue storage is anticipated to accommodate a
total of 16 vehicles – 9 vehicles on the inside lane and 7 vehicles
on the outside lane. Therefore, the proposed on-site queue storage
is sufficient for anticipated demand.
Even though the proposed on-site queue storage is anticipated to be
sufficient for the expected demand, Shake Shack staff will enact
the following procedures on an as-needed basis during periods of
increased demand (i.e., opening weeks, extremely busy peak hours,
etc.) to lessen the possibility of spillback onto the northern
internal road.
• Traffic cones will be used to reduce the possibility of spillback
into the northern internal road and to extend the drive through
lanes through the existing parking field.
• Shake Shack staff members will take orders remotely in the drive
through lanes and direct traffic as needed.
• Customers with orders that will take longer to fulfill will be
asked to park in designated spaces to keep the pick-up window
clear. Shake Shack staff will deliver the completed orders to
patrons parked in these spaces.
Please see Figure 6 for more information.

Parking Analysis
Presently there are 344 stalls in the parking field located to the
west of the project. The footprint of the proposed restaurant is
anticipated to remove 79 stalls from the parking field. CBRE
proposes to provide 265 on-site parking stalls within the parking
field directly to the west of the proposed restaurant.
This number of stalls is one more than the 264 stalls that are
required to be maintained in the attached easement agreement with
the Red Lobster that is directly located to the west of the project
(see Appendix D).
The 265 stalls in this parking field will most likely serve the
Shake Shack project and portion of the businesses in Building A of
the Shoppes at Arbor Lakes. Building A is presently partially
occupied – Areas A1, A6, A7, A13, and A24 are currently vacant (see
Appendix D).
Shake Shack
According to the 5th edition of ITE’s Parking Generation Manual,
the peak parking demand rate for Land Use Code 934 is 8.66 stalls
per 1,000 sf GFA. The resulting estimated peak parking demand is 28
stalls (i.e., 8.66 stalls x 3.2 ksf GFA) (see Appendix D).
According to a parking study prepared by Westwood on January 20,
2020, the 5,165 sf Shake Shack on 6603 France Ave S in Edina,
Minnesota had an observed peak parking demand of 35 stalls. The
resulting peak parking demand rate is 6.77 stalls per 1,000 sf GFA
(i.e., 35 stalls / 5.165 ksf GFA). Application of this peak parking
demand rate to the proposed 3.2 ksf project results in a peak
parking demand estimate of 22 stalls (see Appendix D).
Building A
Data from the 5th edition of ITE’s Parking Generation Manual
estimates the peak parking demand of the existing Building A
(46,873 sf) to be 170 stalls. This is based on ITE Land Use Code
820 (Shopping Center).
Total
A conservative estimate of parking demand for this field of 198
stalls is calculated by adding the 28 stalls for the Shake Shack to
the 170 stalls for a fully-occupied Building A.
The 265 stalls provided in the parking field are adequate for this
conservatively estimated demand of 198 stalls.
