Patrick Brama <br />February 25, 2016 <br />Page 2 <br />To prepare the site for future development, we have proposed a number of improvements. The <br />improvements include sanitary sewer and watermain extensions, trunk storm sewer construction, <br />regional stoiniwater pond construction, cul-de-sac construction on the south end of Limonite Street and <br />access removal at 142nd Avenue. The proposed improvements are shown on Exhibit 3. <br />We are proposing to reconstruct the existing stormwater pond along the east property line of future <br />Parcel 2. This new pond will be a regional stoiuiwater pond for the area. In our opinion, reconstructing <br />the pond along the east property line will result in a more desirable lot for site development. The pond <br />location is shown on Exhibit 3. <br />The regional pond will be designed to treat the stormwater from the future parcels and to meet the water <br />quality and rate control requirements of the Lower Rum River Watershed Management Organization <br />(LRRWMO). The water quality requirement states that the storage below the pond outlet be equal to or <br />greater than the runoff from a 2.5" rainfall event over the entire drainage area draining to the pond. The <br />rate control requirement states that the proposed discharge rate from the site be less than or equal to the <br />existing discharge rate for the 2-, 10- and 100-year storm events. A detailed review of the existing <br />drainage areas and discharge rates will have to be completed prior to the final design of the regional <br />pond. The final configuration and size of the pond will be reviewed based on the proposed site plans <br />for the future parcels. <br />One component of the LRRWMO stoiinwater requirements that will not be addressed with the proposed <br />site improvements is volume control. The LRRWMO requires that one inch of runoff from the new <br />impervious surfaces be infiltrated on site. Typically this is more efficient if each parcel addresses this <br />requirement at the time of site development. <br />Proposed Improvement Costs <br />We have prepared an estimated construction cost to prepare the site for future development. The <br />primary improvements include clearing and grubbing, site and pond grading, sanitary sewer and <br />wateiiiiain extension, trunk storm sewer construction, cul-de-sac construction, salt storage building <br />demolition and utility relocation. <br />Based on our review, the estimated construction cost to prepare the site for future development is <br />$417,779. A detailed cost estimate is included in Table 1. <br />Future Development <br />By completing the improvements discussed above, the City will create two developable parcels. An <br />adequately designed site plan should include a balanced earthwork volume. As each parcel develops, <br />the stormwater volume control requirements of the LRRWMO will have to be addressed. A drainage <br />and utility easement will also have to be provided on Future Parcel 2 over the trunk storm sewer that <br />drains from Future Parcel 1. <br />Hakanson <br />Anderson <br />
