City of Ramsey 15153NOWTHEN BOULEVARD N.W.,RAMSEY, MINNESOTA 55303 · ~612) 427-1410 July 16, 1992 Mr. Norman Bur',' Buu' & Carlson, inc, 201 W, 121st Street Burnsville, MN 5533'7 Re: Sketch Plan Review; Bury & Carlson Addition Dear ~. Bun': We are in receipl of your proposal for a minor subdivision in the Ciw of Ramsev to be nan'md Bury & Carlson Addition. The sketch plan consists of one sheel drawn ~x' N.C. Hokum daled M.'~v ~(' 1992. We off'er the following comments: General: The proposed plat is in the Business Warehouse (BW) District and consists of approximately I7 acres to be subdivided into one lot and Outlot A. The proposed plat boundaries also take in the existing Outlots B and C of Gateway North Industrial Park. h is our understanding that the developer is in the processing of acquiring these outlots but prefers not to bring them into the plat. The plat boundaries should be modified accordingly. Lot Sizes and Dimensions: The minimum lot size in the BW District is one acre. Lot 1, Block 1 of Bury and Carlson Addition measures approximately 15.5 acres, 17 acres including the ponding area proposed as outlot. Drainage: What is designated as Outlot A in the sketch plan is an existing wetland. Staff recommends that this designation of this outlot be changed to drainage easement in the final plat. The City's Comprehensive Storm Drainage Plan calls for an outlet from this ponding area through Outlot B, Gateway North Industrial Park, to the east and eventually discharges through the existing storm sewer in place along Sunfish Lake Drive. Transportation: The City's thoroughfare plan calls for a collector street north of the railroad tracks and south of Counw Road #116, connecting Sunfish Lake Blvd. N.W. and Ramsev Blvd. Although ©utiot 137 Gateway North Industrial Park. is not proposed to be included in the plat, it should be noted for the record that Outlot B would facilitate such :t road corridor. The Foster Cemetery is encompassed on three sides by the subject plat. It is reasonable to expect that access to the cemetery be provided from a dedicated roadway. It is also reasonable to expect that 143rd Avenue would'be extended to the east at some point in the future. The current alignment of t43rd would dicmie that extension to the east will require 33 feet of ri:h~-of-w:',v :tlon~ thc northern boundary of the proposed plat. h is Staffs recommendation that the final D~'v. ,., be r:drawn to provide a ~.'~'~ foot wide outioi across the northern boundan' of fi~c phm The Development Agreement should then require that the developer provide the Orr with'a~..ss~ to the ..,~n.t~n"~, ~ ~ , with an easement across th:n
