Passe <br />Passe Engineering, Inc. <br />9445 East River Road #203 <br />Minneapolis, MN. 55433 <br />(:" <br />9 <br />COUNTY OF ANOKA <br />Public Services Division <br />HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT <br />1440 BUNKER LAKE BLVD NW, ANDOVER, MINNESOTA 55304 <br />(612) 754-3520 FAX (612) 754-3532 <br />RE: Sketch Plan <br />Ramsey Boulevard Site <br />Dear Mr. Passe: <br />We have reviewed the sketch plan for the Ramsey Boulevard site, to be located east of CR <br />56 (Ramsey Blvd.) and north ofCR 116 (Industry Avenue NW) within the City of Ramsey, <br />and I offer the following comments: <br />Existing right-of-way depicted on the plat adjacent to CR 56 and CR 116 is <br />acceptable and should be adequate for future reconstruction purposes <br />(60 feet of R/W east of CR 56 R/W centerline, 60 feet of R/W north of <br />CR 116 R/W centerline). For review purposes, I have labelled the three. <br />proposed access points (beginning on CR 56 and moving counter clockwise) as <br />"A", "B", and "C". It appears that Case V Sight Distance Requirements <br />cannot be met at the location proposed for access "A" due to a vertical curve <br />to the north on CR 56. Consequently, it is recommended that access "A" be <br />relocated to the north to a point where Case V Sight Distance Requirements <br />can be met. Similarly, it appears that Case V Sight Distance Requirements <br />cannot be met at the location proposed for access "B" due to a vertical curve <br />to the west on CR 116. It is recommended that access "B" be relocated <br />approximately 290 feet west to the crest of the vertical curve on CR 116. <br />Clearing and grading should then be accomplished to the extent that Case I <br />Sight Distance Requirements can be met as well. Finally, it appears that <br />Case V Sight Distance Requirements cannot be met at the location proposed for <br />access "C" due to the horizontal curvature of CR 116. Consequently, it is <br />also recommended that access "C" be relocated to the west to a point where <br />Case V Sight Distance Requirements can be met. The City and the <br />Developer should ensure that all sight distance requirements are met for <br />this development. All lots within this plat should be configured so that <br />they access the city streets only, as no residential accesses will be <br />permitted onto the County Highways. Right -of -access along the remaining <br />portions of CR 116 and CR 56 should be dedicated to Anoka County. <br />Calculations must be submitted along with a grading and erosion control pan <br />that delineates the drainage areas for this development.
