Final Plat & Site Plan: Ramsey Town Center 12m Addition January 19, 2006 Page 3 of 6 The retaining wall heights are below the threshold fo/'fences on top; however, this is a residential area and the walls are in the "open area". Fences should be considered on top of the walls. The proposed plan indicates some of the buildings will have up to 6 feet of foundation exposed below the first floor. Taller plantings must be provided in these areas as noted in the landscaping comments below. The plan view stationing for the retaining wails must be shown on all sheets. 11. Utilities: This subdivision will be served by sanitary sewer and city water servi6es that will be extended into the development. The utilities are stubbed to the lots from the previous development. The invert elevations of the proposed building services must be shown on the plans. The vertical separation between the water and sanitary sewer services must be 18". Installation of one water service per building precludes conversion of the units to townhomes in the future. The' main water meter must be in an accessible space, not in an individual unit. Several of the water service tees are under proposed steps. The watermain must have 7.5 ft of cover after the steps are installed. 12. Tree Preservation. A tree preservation plan was not required as the site is void of trees. 13. Sidewalks. Sidewalk was constructed along the primary streets by others. In accordance with the preliminary plat, sidewalk connections will be constructed between all of the buildings as a link between sidewalks on Xenolith, 1.47th Terrace and Willemite with the trails and sidewalks along Town Center Drive, Bunker Lake Blvd., and Zeolite Street N.W. 14. Park Dedication/Trail Development: Per the Master Development Agreement, the City and the Master Developer have negotiated a Park and Trail Dedication Agreement. In accordance with the Park and Trail Dedication Agreement, there is no park dedication or trail development fees owed on this plat. However, there is a park payment obligation in the First Amendment to the Master Development Agreement that requires a cash payment to the City upon sale of the property in an amount equal to 750 times the number of etioble units on the property, in accordance with the zoning regulations. 15. Traffic Generation: As part of the Town Center AUAR, a detailed traffic analysis was completed that anticipated, the type and size of development shown on the plat. The proposed development is consistent with the traffic modeling system used as part of the AUAR analysis. Regional road improvements to facilitate the whole Ramsey Town Center development have been agreed upon and have already begun construction. This proposed development does not generate more traffic than was anticipated. -222-
