Hakanson Anderson Assoc., Inc. March 1, 1988 Mr. Gerald Zimmerman, Chairman Ramsey Planning & Zoning Commission City of Ramsey 15153 Nowthen Boulevard N.W. Ramsey, MN 55303 Engineers, Surveyors & Landscape Architects Re: Preliminary Plat Review of Rambosek Red Oak Estates Dear Mr. Zimmerman: We have reviewed the above referenced preliminary plat which is located in the rural service area of the City. Following is a list of comments resulting from our review of this preliminary plat: 1. The proposed plat is a replat of Lots 1, 2 and 4 of Voltin's Oak Hill Estates and consists of six lots varying in size from 2.5 acres to 3.1 acres. City Code 170.013D requires the minimum lot size in the R -1 residential district to be 2.5 acres. All of the lots meet the minimum lot size requirements. In review of the lot widths, Lots 1 and 2, Block 3 do not meet the minimum width of 200 feet at the building setback and Lot 1, Block 3 does not have a minimum of 80 feet on cul -de- sac. 2. Soil borings and soil classifications were not submitted as required by Article 170.037B of the City Code to determine the elevation of the watertable. However, based on the Anoka County soil survey, the soils consist of Nymore loamy sand, Zimmerman fine sand, Lino fine sand, Brickton silt loam and marsh. All lots with the exception of Lot 2, Block 1, have adequate Class I soils suitable for on -site wastewater disposal systems. The southerly portion of Lot 2, Block 1 consists of marsh which is not suitable for on -site wastewater disposal systems. We would recommend soil borings be provided on Lot 2, Block 1, to make sure there are adequate Class I soils for an on -site wastewater disposal system. 222 Monroe Street Anoka, Minnesota 55303 612/427 -5860 Eugene J.
