Ramsey, ~ 55303 Re: Preliminary'Plat of Stanhope Terrace Dear Mr. Zimmerman: We have reviewed the preliminary plat of Stanhope Terrace which is located in the rural service area of the city. Following is a list of comments resulting from our review of this plat: The proposed 39.8 acre development consists of 16 lots with lot sizes varying from two to two and two-thirds acres. All of the lots meet the minimum lot width requirement of the City Code. With the addition of the 35 foot wide trail corridor on the south edge of the plat, the average lot size is 2.36 acres. We would recommend that the number of lots be reduced to 15 to eliminate variances for lot sizes. If the arrangement of lots is changed, Torito Street could be renamed and moved to line up with Ute Street in the plat of Juniper Weods. As previously indicated, the Anoka Soil Survey indicates that the soils are generally suitable for on-site systems· However, a small portion of the plat is Sartell fine sand which is non-suited for on-site systems. This soil may affects Lots 5 and 6, Block 1. Soil borings should be provided to verify the soils. In review of the street plans, the following changes should be made: Elevation of both the proposed and existing streets must be shown. A typical section must be provided. Specification must be submitted. Title blocks must be filled in and the plan must be signed by a registered engineer. 222 Monroe Street Anoka, Minnesota 55303 612/42_7-5860 Fax 612/427-3401 Eugene J.
