Ieg.state,mn.us/arule/8820/for information regarding State <br />Aid Operations Rules Chapter 8820. <br />For driveway standards, the designer is directed to refer to the Mn/DOT Road Design <br />Manual (English) Table 5-3.04A and Figure $-3.04A for guidance and policies. Driveway <br />widths, other than those recommended, up to 50 feet will be permitted only by special' <br />permission of the Commissioner of Transportation or designee. <br /> <br />Please contact Jim Deeny in our State Aid section at (65t) 582~[389 with. any additional <br />questions. <br /> <br />Mn/DOT's policy is to assist local governments in promoting compatibility between land use <br />and highways. Residential uses located adjacent to highways often result in complaints about <br />traffic noise. Traffic noise from this highway could exceed noise standards established by the <br />Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA), the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban <br />Development, and the U.S. Department of Transportation. Minnesota Rule 7030.0030 states <br />that municipalities are responsible for taking ali reasonable measures to prevent land use <br />activities listed in the MPCA's Noise Area Classificat/on (NAC) where the establishment of the <br />land use would result in violations of established noise standards. <br /> <br />Mn/DOT policy regarding development adjacent'to e,'dsting highways prohibi.ts the <br />expenditure of highway funds for noise mitigation measures in such areas. The project <br />proposer should assess the noise situation and take the action deemed necessary to minimize <br />the impact of any highway noise. If you have any questions regarding Mn/DOT's noise policy <br />please contact Peter Wasko in our Des/ga sect/on at (65 I) 582-1293. <br /> <br />Please address all future correspondence for development activity <br />environmental reviews, and comprehensive plan amendments to: <br /> <br /> Paul Czech <br /> Mn/DOT - Metro Division <br /> Waters Edge <br /> 1500 West County Road B-2 <br /> Roseville, Minnesota 551 I3 <br /> <br />such as plats, site plans, <br /> <br />b/ir/DOT document submittal guidelines require three (3) complete copies of plats and two (2) <br />copies of other review documents including site plans.
