P.W. CASE <br /> <br />Consider developer's request for elimination of emergency access gate for River Pines 4th <br /> By: Brian E. Olson, City Engineer <br /> <br />Background: <br /> <br />On June 27, 1997, the City Council passed a resolution granting preliminary plat approval for <br />Apple Ridge. There was a significant amount of discussion relating to the amount of traffic that <br />could be generated from the development to avoid using Trunk Highway 47. A condition of the <br />development was that an emergency vehicle access gate be installed at the intersection of 158th <br />Avenue NW and Potassium Street NW. See the attached map. <br /> <br />On August 16, 2001, Orrin Thompson Homes wrote the attached letter to the City with concerns <br />relating to this emergency access gate and requested that it be eliminated to avoid separating the <br />neighborhood. <br /> <br />The purpose of this case is to consider the request as it will require that all 17 of the households <br />that are built west of that intersection to exit via the existing neighborhood and deny them access <br />to Trunk Highway 47. <br /> <br />Committee Action: <br /> <br />Based upon discussion <br /> <br />Reviewed by: <br />City Administrator <br />Director of Public Works <br /> <br />PW: 2/19/02 <br /> <br /> <br />
