adequate truck traffic movements without impacts to the public right-of--way.: Also, please clarify what is anticipated when the future proof of parking along Azurite St. is constructed; it appears that the easterly access point will be eliminated with the installation of curb and gutter. A request, for comments has been submitted to Anoka County. Utilities and Easements: The facility will be served by municipal sewer and water facilities existing under Azurite Street. There is a 10. foot drainage and utility easement proposed around the interior perimeter of both lots. Additionally, there is an existing drainage pond on Lot 2 that is encumbered with drainage and utility easements. .Please show the existing MPCA storm sewer line and any associated easements that .encumber the site; this line is shown on the record drawings for project 01-32. Any .,additional. easements must be incorporated into -the plat.. Insulation must be added at the-storm .sewer and watermain crossing.. if adequate separation. cannot be achieved. Notes should be added to the plans describing the connection to the existing watermain as no 90 degree bends are allowed. The watermain extension,to lot 1 will serve as that parcels service and must be isolated from the service for lot 2 with appropriate valves. This 8" watermain should also be reduced, consistent with the hydrant detail, to a 6" line and gate valve. Drainage and Grading: The proposed FES from CBMI-I 1 into the stormwater pond is too close to the existing outlet and must be relocated to prevent short circuiting. All proposed. FES'.s into the pond must have an invert within 1' of the bottom. The proposed. impacts along the west pond ~ slope (grading, pipe work, etc.) must be mitigated with appropriate erosion control practices and potential. sediment clean out when completed. Add notes for the proposed seed mix- and stabilization practice for this pond slope. The emergency overflow from the proposed low point CBMH must be reinforced to prevent excessive erosion along the pond slope. Please describe temporary drainage patterns for the northerly area, without impacts to adjacent properties and until such time that the future addition and associated improvements are constructed. Note #3 on the grading plan is inconsistent with the site plan information and should be corrected or eliminated, Lighting: All exterior lighting on the site must be arranged in such a way to avoid illumination of the public street. The submitted lighting plan conforms to City Code if the bulbs in the exterior light posts are not visible from surrounding properties. Lighting must be incorporated to provide adequate illumination at the access points along Azurite Street for traffic safety. Off-Street Parking -Spaces Required: City Code requires one parking space for every 1,000 square feet of manufacturing space and one parking space for every 300 square feet of office space within a development. Based on the submitted floor plan, the proposed site plan indicates the need for 69 required spaces. 67 spaces are shown on the site plan, with an additional 33 spaces of "proof of parking" for the future expansion area. Off-Street Parking -Design: The site plan indicates that the parking area will be blacktop with. concrete curbs and gutters with one landscaped island within the parking lot. One tree for every ten spaces. of parking is required to be planted that. provide shade to parking lots. Also, it is suggested that a pedestrian walkway be constructed from the western and southern parking -lots along the building to the front door. -247-
