City of Ramsey 15153 NOW'THEN BOULEVARD N.W., RAMSEY, MINNESOTA 55303 PHONE (612) 427~1410 FAX (612) 427-5543 TTD (612) 427-8591 I I I JanUary 30, 1995 Mr.~ary Verkinnes Miller Architects & Builders 3335 West St. Germain St. Cloud, Mn 56302 Re: i Site Plan Review; Wendell's Dear Mr. Verkinnes: We 'are in receipt of a site plan prepared by Jim W. Miller Construction consisting of five (5) sheets. The documents submitted include Sheet A. 1 (Grading Plan) dated January 9, 1995; Sheets A.2~(Site Plan), A.3 (Floor Plan), and A.4 (Building Elevations), dated January 19, 1995; and A.5 (Wall Cross Section Elevations) dated January 16, 1995. The plans propose to construct a manufacturing facility on the east side of C.S.A.H. #116, approximately at Basalt Street N.W. We 6ffer the following comments: Zoning: The site is zoned Industrial, for which manufacturing is a permitted use. Lot ~overage: The subject site is approximately 3.8 acres in size or 167,631 square feet. Lot coverage in the Industrial District is restricted to 35% or 58,671 square feet in this case. The footprint of the proposed building totals 19,600 square feet, which is in accordance with City Cod~. (Note: A planned mezzanine level brings the total square feet of usable space to 24,600 square feet.) Util[¢es: The facility will be served by municipal water and sanitary sewer. The City will extend wat~ain to the southwestern comer of the site boundary and provide a service tap at a location and ~ize specified by Wendell's. At the present time, it is not feasible to provide gravity sanitary sewer service to this site and a pressure sewer will be necessary. It is suggested that Wendell's install a gravity sewer to drain to the southern boundary of the site and that a lift pit be placed at that location to transmit the wastewater to a sanitary manhole wkich currently exists approximately 900 feet to the east via a forcemain that will be installed by the City. This arrangement will allow · for the connection to gravity sanitary sewer when it becomes available sometime in the future when extegding services to the business area south of County Road #116. The pumping pit will be owned and maintained by Wendell's. There is an existing storm sewer which crosses this property. A twenty (20) foot easement for this storm sewer should be dedicated to the CitY in a separate, recordable document. Ped~trian Pathway: In keeping with prior development to the east (Detail Tool, Health Quest and Sunfish Square), a pedestrian path is desired parallel to C.S.A.H. #116. Any proposed tree plancngs in this area should be located between the path and C.S.A.H. #116. Staff is recommending that the pathway be constructed as an 8 foot wide bituminous path alohg the entire parcel. A 10 foot wide concrete handicap ramp should be cut into the curbs at the driveway(s) to I I I I I I I, I I I I I I I I
