The results of t:. s traffic generation analysis show a 2005 levels of service no lower then "C" for the closest three intersections. These intersection include Alpine Drive and County Road 57, Alpine Drive and CSAH 5 and Alpine Drive and TH47. The lowest acceptable level of service is considered to be )' .vel "E". Utilities and W'ater Usage: The development will need to be served by municipal water ap.d sanitary sewer. Neither sanitary sewer nor waterrn:.~;~ are immediately availabl~ to the proposed development. The sanitary sewer trunk main currently terminates 880 feet south of the Alpine Drive. The closest locations of the water main are an eight-inch main located on the south side of Alpine Drive and a 12-inch main on the west side of CSAH 5 (Nowthen Blvd.), a distance 300 feet north of 151 st Lane. It should be anticipated that the City will require that the trunk sanitary sewer line'be extended up ~o and through the site to the CSAH 5, and that the 12-inch watermain be extended along CSAH 5 up to County Road 57 (Sunfish Lake Blvd.) and then loop through the site and connect with the existing 8~inch water main on the south side of Alpine Drive. The sewer and water trunk expenditures significantly exceed the revenues associated with this development. This issue will be discussed with the Public Works committee on May 20th. D~'aina~e and Utility. Easements: The final plat should show all common areas dedicated as drain:.:,"." and utility easements. Park Dedication: The development was reviewed by the Park and Recreation Commission at their April and May meetings. The Park and Recreation Commission is recommending that park dedication requirements be satisfied through a combination of land dedication and a cash payment. The 2003 Park Dedication rate is $1,800 per unit, which equates to a cash payment of $363,600. The Park and Recreation Commission recommended that the City accept the .5 acre of propos¢:~: open space area located at the southeastern corner of the subject property for land dedication and credit the developer $32,724 towards the required park dedication fees. Therefore, park dedication will consist of a cash payment in the amount of $330,876 and a .5 acre parcel land dedication that will be utilized for public park purposes. It should be noted that the rate in effect at the time the subdivision receives final plat approval will be required. The existing single family homestead is exempt from park dedication requirements. "rai~ %velop~nent a~tl Trail Fees: The current trail development fee is $475.00Per unit and is due prior :.o reccrding the plat. The rate in effect when the subdivision receives final plat approval will be required. The preliminary plat is providing for an 8-foot bituminous trail along Nowthen Blvd., Alpine Drive, and Sunfish Lake Blvd. The Park and Recreation Commission recommended against providing a trail credit for the construction of pedestrian pathways along the Nowthen Blvd. and Sunfish Lake Blvd. The plat is noting several areas of "proposed trail by others," keeping consistent with past policy, the City has required the developer to construct -227-
