DEC-19-i997 09:33 p.~x~ <br /> <br />December18,1997 <br />Mr. Steve Ach <br />Page Four <br /> <br />Ee <br /> <br /> the overall watermain computer model. Based on .full development and <br /> maximum day use along with a fire without looping the water system there would <br /> only be approximately 1,250 gallons per minute provided. Looping the <br /> watermain to the east thorough the Elk Motel property, to the bowling alley, <br /> would provide for over 2,500 gallons per minute. Therefore, we would <br /> recommend that as part of this project a concurrent public improvement be <br /> undertaken to Iccp the watermain from the Guardian Angels site to the entrance <br /> of the Elk Bowl. As you are aware, we had a meeting with the owners of the Elk <br /> Motel and they indicated their willingness to participate with this type of <br /> improvement. We would recommend thal[ when this development receives <br /> preliminary City Council approval, the issue of initiating a public improvement to <br /> Iccp the watermain and possibly install sanitary sewer to the Elk Motel, be <br /> discussed with the City Council <br />3. Each of the townhouse units must have a separate sanitary sewer and water <br /> service provided. <br /> <br />Prelimina~ Plat <br />1. As mentioned previously, we believe that the pond should not be located in an <br /> outlot. Perhaps Outlot A could just be made part of the townhome general area <br /> so that it is cleady in the ownership of Guardian Angels, at least for routine <br /> maintenance (grass cutting and litter pick-up). <br /> Easements do not need to be provided for storm sewer lines, such as in the <br /> commercial lot parking area. <br /> The easement for the public utilities is shown' as 25-feet wide. This area needs <br /> to be wide enough for sanita~ sewer, watermain, and all of the other utilities <br /> such as gas, telephone, electric, and cable TV. It should be noted that at the <br /> staff review meeting, Elk River Municipal Utilities indicated that the electric <br /> transformers need to be placed at least lO-feet away from any building or <br /> extraordinary construction methods need to be used for fire resistance. <br /> <br />If you have any questions regarding any of these comments, please call. <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />Howard R.
