Public Works Director Olson reviewed the drainage along Lot 12, which drains to the pond to the north. Councilmember Elvig inquired if the roundabout is a public access and about plowing techniques. Public Works Director Olson replied the roundabout is a public access. He explained the only concern with plowing relate to the dimples in the road. Plowing of the roundabout will be an educational process for the drivers, but staff is willing to do that. Councilmember Elvig suggested the curbs of the roundabout be built to an industrial strength or that grading be included to the curbs, as they will likely take some hits during plowing. Public Works Director Olson indicated staff will look at roundabout designs elsewhere. Some designs do not include the dimples depicted in this plan. The dimples will either be surmountable or will not be included. Councilmember Cook noted one of the new designs being used is not to include a curb, and to use recessed concrete so the water from the road drains to the flower bed. In the winter the flower bed area is plowed right over. Public Works Director Olson indicated staff has reviewed the design and the construction plans have been submitted. As part of the approval tonight staff still reserves the right to approve the plans and specifications. Motion by Councilmember Pearson, seconded by Councilmember Cook, to adopt resolution #06- 04-137 to approve the final plat of Brookfield Second Addition contingent upon compliance with the City Staff Review Letter dated April 21, 2006, and the Developer entering into a Development Agreement with the City. Motion carded. Voting Yes: Mayor Gamec, Councilmembers Pearson, Cook, Elvig, Jeffrey, Olson, and Strommen. Voting No: None. Case #8: Request for Revised Final Plat and Final Site Plan Approval of Meadow; Case of GM Land Development, Inc. Community Development Director Trudgeon reviewed that on February 28, 2006, City Council granted final plat and final site plan approval of Meadow. As part of the final plat approval, the Council noted the need to replace the Fire Department access to Alpine Drive. Staff was directed to work with the developer to provide for that access via the new segment of Helium Street to be constructed. Staff reviewed the site plan and requested the developer to implement the following: Construct a driveway from the Fire Department to Helium through Lot 21. The City would retain ownership of Lot 21 and when the interim access is abandoned, the City has the option to develop the lot. The developer would then be allowed to plat one additional lot in the plat to replace the lot dedicated to the City for access to Helium. The Development City Council / April 25, 2006 Page 14 of 23
