City of Ramsey 15153 NOWTHEN BOULEVARD N.W., RAMSEY, MINNESOTA 55303 (612) 427-1410 May 19, 1993 Rick Foster Route 1, Box 185 Princeton, MN 55371 Re: Request for final plat approval of River's Bend 3rd Addition Rick: We have received the proposed final plat for River's Bend 3rd Addition. The plat consists of two (2) sheets drawn by Hakanson Anderson Associates, Inc., with a print date May 4, 1993. We offer the following comments: General. The plat is approximately 22 acres in size and the approved preliminary plat proposes 32 single family urban residential lots and 8 commercial lots. Apparently the plat will be developed in phases as the proposed final plat consists of 17 single family lots and a series of ouflots. The block of residential lots has not been assigned a block number; the plat must be corrected accordingly. The City should be provided with a copy of the proposed phasing plan for River's Bend 3rd Addition. Zoning. The plat is currently zoned B-1 Business and the rezoning necessary to allow for a portion of the area to be developed w/th single family units is in process. Lot Area and Dimensions. The residential portion of the plat is in the Scenic Pdver Overlay District for which the minimum lot area is I2,150 square feet. Although each of the lots do not contain a minimum of i2, 150 square feet, the average lot size exceeds 12,I50 square feet and this is acceptable to DNR. All of the resident/al lots meet the minimum lot width requirements at either the street frontage or the building setback line. Streets. City Code restricts cul-de-sac lengths to 600 feet; the 143rd Avenue cul-de-sac is in compliance with City Code. The right-of-way dedicated for Xldmo Street is 68 feet wide at the intersection with 142nd Avenue N.W. and shortly thereafter increases to 70 feet, which is in accordance with City Council's request at the time of preI~m~nary plat approval. Also in accordance with preliminary plat approval, the extension of 143rd Avenue to Hwy. g4-7 has been platted as an out_lot for future development after a sufficient number of improvements have been made to render its intersection with Hwy. g:47 a safe one. Outlot D represents the future extension of Xldmo Street to intersect w/th C.S.A.H. #5. It has been platted in such a way that it will intersect with the future centerline of #5. Public Improvements. The sanitary sewer, municipal water and storm sewer are proposed to be installed as a pubhc improvement project. In add/t/on, a public sidewalk will be constructed within the right-of-way for 55kSmo Street, along and adjacent to Out. lot A which is proposed for future commercial development. Grading and Drainage Plans. The City has received a grading and drainage plan dated January 30, 1993, prepared by Peter Raatikka. The plan has been accepted with minor revisions. A revised plan should be submit-ted prior to grading being initiated. 9},9-.
