Ramsey, MN 55303 Re: Sketch Plan Review of Trott Brook Ponds Dear Mr. Zimmerman: We have reviewed the above referenced sketch plan dated September 27, 1989 which is located in the rural service area of the City. Following is a list of comments resulting from our review of this sketch plan: The proposed plat is a 153 acre development which consists of 58 residential lots. The lots along the proposed park appear to be deficient in area. Lot 20, Block 3 also does not meet the minimum width requirement of 200 feet. In review of access to the plat, access will be provided from State Trunk Highway No. 47 on the east and from 172nd Lane on the west. Four of the lots will also require direct access from State Trunk Highway No. 47. The proposed sketch plan should be revised by Mn/DOT. We are unable to comment on the drainage at this time. The developer will have to show how drainage will be handled on the preliminary plat. In. review of the street plan, the~ developer is providing a temporary cul-de-sac to the north and also a 33 foot wide road easement. This cul-de-sac would provide access to the land locked parcels to the north. The developer is proposing to construct 172nd Lane across a wetland. This will require approval from DNR and the U.S. Corps of Engineers. 222. Monroe Street Anoka, Minnesota 55303 612/427-5860 Fax 612/427-3401 Eugene J. Hakanson, RE. James M. Winter, LS. Lawrence G.
