Marigold Pond Preliminary Plat _Review May 27, 2005 Revised: June 24, 2005 4of3 northbound and southbound TH 47 will be required as will the construction of a northbound right turn lane into the proposed subdivision. In a June 15, 2005 plat review letter MnDOT has indicated that residential land use may not be compatible with highway impacts, notably potential noise complaints. MnDOT policy prohibits the expenditure of highway funds for noise mitigation measures. You have indicated your willingness to construct a combination of berming and landscaping to provide a buffer to the highway.' Sidewalks: City policy requires the installation of sidewalks along one side of all non cul-de-sac public streets in single-family developments. The submitted preliminary plat is consistent with this policy. Utilities: This development is proposed to be serviced with municipal sewer and water and an overall utility plan has been presented as sheet C3 of the plan submittals. The sanitary sewer system within the subdivision will be conveyed to a lift station which is to be located near the intersection of Road C and Road D. This lift station will discharge through a forcemain into the gravity sewer located at the intersection of TH 47 and 156th Lane. In turn this gravity system flows to the lift station located near 155t~ Lane between Krypton and Junkite Streets. That lift station discharges to the gravity sanitary sewer located east of the Alpine Drive medical clinic. Staff is recommending an engineering analysis of tiffs system to ensure adequate sewer capacities are available. The utility plan also proposes the extension of a twelve inch watermain along the east side of TH 47 fi:om I57~h Lane to I60t~ Lane to service this subdivision. The City has prepared a trunk water system distribution plan which includes this area which anticipates a sixteen-inch watermain along the west side of TH 47. Staff recommends that the developer be required to construct the planned sixteen-inch watermain on the west side of TH 47 from 157th Lane to the northerly end of this proposed plat and the proposed twelve-inch main on the east side of TH 47 be replaced with an eight inch main. Two eighbinch watermain connections should be made, one at 160th Lane and the second through an easement on the north end of the subdivision to provide two water sources to this development. This watermain arrangement wilI provide the two separate water sources to service tlt~s development. At the June 2, 2005 Planning Commission meeting, you indicated your willingness to provide a utility easement to provide sanitary sewer access to the property located at 16261 St Francis Blvd. This easement should be shown on the final plat. Park Dedication and Trails: The preliminary plat was reviewed by the Park and Recreation Conunission at their June 9, 2005 meeting, and recommended a cash payment to satisfy park and trail fees for the site. A trail is shown on the east side of Highway 47 up to 160th Lane where it turns back into the plat, and returns to Highway 47 at the northern boundary of the plat. Tkis. -228-
