Sketch Plan 1Keview: Duck Pddge October 24, 2003 Page" ~ of 3 4. Access and Streets: The plat will gain access from 149a Lane N.W., an existing dead-end street that si~,'iificantly exceeds the 600 foot len~h restriction. This is not a desirable situation, especially with potential for development of two new residences on the north side of this street. The City is interested connecting 149th Avenue N.W. and Garnet Street N.W. at some point in the future and eliminating the dead-end cul-de-sacs. However, topography is such that the majority, of the future right-of-way for the logical connection of 149th and Ga.met will require the cooperation of Minnesota Pollution Control Agency, owner of Lot 2 Block 6, Peltzer Addition. Per City StafFs recommendation, there is a remnant of property adjacent to the 149m cul-de-sac bulb that is proposed to be planed as Outlot B. The development agreement will require that thik. 9utlot be deeded to the Ciw to facilitate any future rig2t-of-way that may be needed for the connection of 149m and Garnet. Lot Size and Dimensions: The final plat indicates that all 3 lots meet the 10,800 square foot area requirement. Ali of the lots meet the 80 foot lot width requirement. Grading and Drainage: A Grading and Drainage Plan is not generally required with minor subdivisions. However, a. permit from the Lower Rum River Watershed Management Organization (LRRWMO) and the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency will be required for the development. The Developer will be required to determine the elevation of the 100 year flood elevation, and the lowest floor house ~ades must be constructed two feet above this elevation. The City,' has enacted an ordinance that requires an elevation survey at the'time of footing inspection to ensure compliance with the approved ~ading plan. No ~ades shall be flatter than 1%. Grades flatter than 2% will require a certificate of grading prior to an occupancy permit being ganted. The Developer must inform lot owners that no grading plan has been prepared for this subdivision, and that the Ciu' will not be responsible for drainage related issues on these lots. Easements and Wetlands. Wetlands have been identified and the delineation should be verified by the LRRW.%iO. Wetlands are proposed to be encumbered with drainage and utility, easements. The standard l0 foot drainage and utility easements (5 feet on common property,' lines) is provided around the perimeter of all lots. Per Staff's recommendation, a remnant of property west of Lot 1 has been platted as Outlot A and encumbered with a drainage and utiliv easement. Utilities. The municipal water and sanitary, sewer services are present and all 3 lots must connect to the services. No lateral stubs have been provided for these proposed lots. k will be necessary, to excavate and repair 149th Lane to obtain these services. Dewatering may be necessary. The Development Agreement will require payment of sewer and water trunk fees for all 3 lots. Stormwater Management: The City has established a storm water management fee that must be paid prior to release of the final plat for recording. The current rate is $375 per new lot created. -152-
