Box J, Osseo, Minnesota 55369 (612) 425-2181 South Office: 8500 210th St. W., Lakeville, Minnesota 55044 (612) 469-388t October 30, 1980 Mr. Kenneth Peterson, Chairman Ramsey Planning & Zoning Commission City of Ramsey 15153 Nowthen Boulevard Anoka, Minnesota 55303 Re: Revised Sketch Plan Vickers Property Dear Mr. Peterson: We have reviewed the above referenced sketch plan and offer the following comments: Since our letter dated January 31, 1980, on the initial sketch plan the developer has revised the sketch plan to include eight two and one half acre lots and one outlot. The sketch plan conforms to the overall 5 acre density required within the Critical Rivers Corridor. It is our under- standing that the Environmental Quality Board and Met Council are in agreement with the proposed layout and will document that in a letter. The existing zoning within the plat is business and the proposed land use is for both business and residential. Therefore, a zoning change will be required. Also, the developer should indicate which areas are proposed to be left for business. As previously stated, we would recommend that the cul-de-sac be shifted to the east plat boundary or an easement be provided to allow for future access of the abutting property. Access to the plat has been changed to provide right turn ingress and egress from Highway 10. This access will require approval of the Minnesota Department of Transportation. In review of the soil borings it appears that the soils will require modification to slow the percolation rate. The soil borings also indicate perched ground water along the proposed east-west street. However, as previously stated, it appears that adequate areas of Class I soils are available on each lot to make them buildable. civil · municipal · planning · environmental · land surveying · geatechnics · waste treatment
