Preliminary Plat and Site Plan Review: Ebony Woods August 31, 2006 Revised: September 22, 2006 Page 4 of 6 Ramsey Boulevard; Thl O / Feldspar St; TH 10 / Sunfish Lake Boulevard; Riverdale Dr / Feldspar St. This study showed that all of the above key intersections operated at an acceptable level of service with the exception of the TH10 / Sunfish Lake Boulevard which operates at a LOS E during the pm peak hour due to the high level of through traffic on Highway 10. It is important to note that this unacceptable level of service is not associated with the traffic being generated on Riverdale Drive, but is attributable to the traffic on Highway 10. The City is working with MnDOT to improve the capacity of TH 10. The improvement to the Sunfish Lake intersection is currently scheduled for 2008. 12. Utilities and Water Usage: The development will need to be served by municipal water and sanitary sewer. These services were installed in Ebony Street in 2005 and two services were stubbed out at the direction of the property owner who had anticipated two multifamily units being developed on the site. A utility plan dated August 3, 2006 has been submitted illustrating how the six twinhome units proposed would be served by the utility stubs provided. The connection proposed in this plan for the sanitary sewer services in this plan is generally acceptable, however staff would recommend that cleanout be provided at each location were the flow would make a 90 degree bend or greater. This would require additional cleanouts for the building sewers servicing units 2, 4 and 5. With regard to the water services to these units, staff is recommending that a 4- inch ductile iron watermain be placed parallel to Ebony Street behind the east curb line to service all six units. This 4 -inch main would be connected into the two 4 -inch- service stubs currently in place. All six units would be provided with a 1 -inch copper service stubbed into the 4 -inch ductile iron watermain. The developer will need to pay sewer and water trunk charges on five units (a single trunk charge was assessed at the time the sewer and watermain was installed for the existing lot of record). In addition the developer shall be responsible for the costs associated with modifying the building services including restoration within the right of way of Ebony Street. 13. Park Dedication: The proposed plat will be forwarded to the Park Commission for a recommendation on park dedication. The City has the option for cash at the rate of $2400.00 per unit, land, or a combination of the two. 14. Trail Development Fees: The City has enacted a Trail Development Fee. The current rate is $580 per dwelling unit. 15. Sidewalks: City Code requires the installation sidewalks along one side of all non cul -de- sac public streets. A sidewalk is currently in place along the east side of Ebony Street. This sidewalk will need to be protected or restored following the construction activity. 16. Stormwater Management Fee: The City has enacted a stormwater management fee; the current rate is $397.00 per unit. The payment of this fee will be required prior to recording the plat. • •
