Howard R, Green Company <br /> <br />May 19, 2003 <br />File: 820875J-0240 <br /> <br />Mr. Chris Leeseberg <br />City of Elk River <br />13065 Orono Parkway <br />Elk River, MN 55330 <br /> <br />RE: <br /> <br />LOTS 2 AND 3, BLOCK 1, ELK RIVER CROSSING 4TM ADDITION <br />SITE PLAN REVIEW <br /> <br />Dear Mr. Leeseberg: <br /> <br />As requested, we have reviewed the submittal for the proposed development on Lots 2 and 3, Block <br />1, Elk River Crossing 4th Addition. The submittal was prepared by John Oliver and Associates and <br />dated May 2, 2003. It consisted of a preliminary site plan, preliminary grading plan, preliminary <br />grading plan, preliminary utility plan and a preliminary landscape plan. Based on our review and <br />comments received at the staff review meeting, we would offer the following comments: <br /> <br />Although the development submittal is titled Lot 2 and 3, Block 1, Elk River Crossing 4th <br />Addition, there is no Lot 3 in Elk River Crossing 4t~ Addition, only a larger Lot 2. <br /> <br />This site is encumbered by drainage and utility and easements in the southern portion for <br />the trunk sanitary sewer and water servicing the eastern area. There is a major lift station <br />just south of this property with a deep sanitary sewer line exiting the lift station to Zane <br />Street. Trunk watermain also crosses this area. The easement and the sewer and water <br />lines should be shown on the plans. <br /> <br />Also there is a gas line easements that crosses from the highway to Zane Street and a <br />United Power Association easement that runs along the rear lot line parallel to TH 169. <br />These easements should also be shown on the site plan. <br /> <br />The gate to the lift station located to the south is accessed through this site. The gate <br />location should be shown on the plan and a driveway constructed at that location. There <br />may need to be adjustments made to the landscaping plan so that the driveway access is <br />not blocked. <br /> <br />This site will need to apply for and receive an NPDES permit from the City prior to any site <br />work beginning. There is silt fence shown on the site plan along the west and south <br />boundaries. We question why there is no silt fence shown along the frontage with Zane <br />Street or the north lot line. <br /> <br />The existing driveway on the east side of Zane Street accessing the Wal-Mart site needs to <br />be shown so that the proposed southerly driveway into this site is lined up with it. <br /> <br />Ltr-051403-Leeseberg <br /> 1326 Energy Park Drive · St. Paul, MN 55108 · 651/644-4389 fax 651/644-9446 toll free 888/368-4389 <br /> <br /> <br />
