Outlot B is contained within the development and will not be developed as residential units in the future. Outlot B will be used as open space as part of the entrance into the development. Outlots A and C are being held for future development. City Ordinances require applicants show future development, plans for outlots so that that the City can determine that the area will be adequately served by public infrastructure. Th/s sketch ha~ been provided to City Staff. '- Streets: The development is served by a combination of public and private streets and driveway collectors Streets A, B, and C are proposed to be public streets. The private streets serve the majority of the to.wnhome units. The plat is showing On access onto County Road 56. This access will need to receive an access permit from Anoka County. It is anticipated that improvements within the County right-of-way near the proposed accesses (such turn lanes and raised medians for right-in and right-out turning movements) will need to be constructed by you, the developer Gradin~ ,I)rainaee, and Utility Plans: You have submitted revised drainage, utility, and grading plans based on comments from plans reviewed before the June 5 and June 25, 2003 meeting. The City. Engineering Department is still review/ng the revisions and will report on the plans at the City Council meeting of July 22, 2003. Wetlands: There is a DNR protected wetland on the property. Review of the submitted wetland delineation report will need to be conducted by the Anoka Soil Conservation District The Lower Rum River Watershed Management Organization 'will need to review the development for impacts to the wetland. Traffic Generation Analysis: A traffic generation analysis has been completed for the Town Center Gardens development. The analysis assumed a full build-out of the parcel with s/milar townhome units (a total of 329 un/ts) and an access onto 149t~ Ave. at the Per/dot St. intersection. The traffic generation analysis determined that all of the key intersections would operate at an acceptable level. However, it should be pointed out that the analysis was conducted with the az~umption that raised medians would restrict turning movements at Street C and Hwy. 116 and at Street A and Ramsey Blvd. (fight in and right out). These assumptions are based on Anoka County Highway Department spacing guidelines. The costs for the construction of the improvements be borne by the developer(s) whose subdivisions is responsible for the needed road improvements. Park Dedication: The development will he reviewed at a future Park Commission meeting. The Park and Recreation Commission can recommend that a cash fee or land dedication take place to take care of park dedication requirements. The 2.003 Park Dod/cation rate is $1,800 per un/t. It should be noted that the rate in effect at the time the subdivision receives final plat approval will be required. -289-
