Information on the horizontal and vertical curves for the street must be submitted. Access to Lots: The proposal includes a public road that gains access to the plat from 153rd Lane NW and CSAH 57 (Sunfish Lake Blvd.). The Sun_fish Lake Blvd. access will be directly across the street from an access to the Alpine Acres town.home development. The proposal also provides fbr a future connection to the remainder of High Point ?d Addition to the north. In order to accommodate snow storage in this area, staff will be recommending that the driveways for Lot 2, Block 2 and Lot 1, Block 3 be located in the middle or on the southern end of the lot. Staff is also requesting that you explore the possibility of providing a stub street to serve the lots in the southeastern portion of the plat, should they develop in the future.
