It is Sta2'fs understanding that the applicant is coordinating this effort with the City of Elk River. Staff received a letter from Terry J. Maurer an engineer working for the City of Elk River stating their approval for the City of Ramsey to connect the storm water drainage pond with the existing pond in Elk Riverl However, Staff is requesting that tile applicant provide further verification from the City of Elk River regarding the agreement between Elk River and the developer to construct a portion of 156~' Lane on an easement located in the City of Elk River.
