December 15, 1997 <br />Mr. Steve Ach <br />Page Two <br /> <br />appears that Lot 1 will have no buildable space given the additional right-of-way <br />required at the westside of the lot and the large wetland that consumes the east side of <br />the lot. It seems the easiest solution would be to shift lot lines to the south to provide a <br />buildable space. <br /> <br />Lot 5 does have an existing home on it. The home does have an existing driveway out <br />to Meadowvale Road. It appears that Lot 5 is sufficiently sized so that the existing <br />structure will meet all of the set backs. <br /> <br />Sanitary sewer service is proposed to be provided by extending a gravity main from the <br />existing lift station located in Meadowvale Heights Second Addition. Sanitary sewer is <br />shown to be constructed along the frontage of all seven of the lots. Watermain already <br />exists along the east side of Meadowvale Road in front of these lots. One additional <br />hydrant would be necessary to serve the proposed development. This should be placed <br />between Lots 3 and 4. Given the recommendation that a bituminous trail be placed 1- <br />foot off of the property line, we would suggest that the sanitary sewer and water services <br />be extended into the lots to the 10-foot drainage and utility easement line. This will <br />make it possible to excavate the sewer and water services at the time the home is built <br />without disturbing the bituminous trail. <br /> <br />There is an 18-inch RCP culvert crossing under Meadowvale Road at the location of the <br />ditch. It will be necessary for this culvert to be extended easterly far enough to provide <br />for the wider right-of-way and the construction of the bituminous pathway. The ditch is a <br />DNR protected water, therefore, it will be necessary to work with that agency in <br />acquiring a permit for the extension of the culvert. <br /> <br />This property has not previously been assess for trunk sanitary sewer and water. <br />Therefore, we would recommend that the plat be assessed $3,800.00 per gross acre <br />minus any wetland or ditch area. <br /> <br />It is worth noting that at some point in the future it is likely that Meadowvale Road will be <br />reconstructed. Given the County's new cost participation policy it is reasonable to <br />assume that at that point in time there will be assessments against these lots for the <br />reconstruction of the roadway. <br /> <br />If you have any questions regarding any of these comments please call. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />Howard R.
