Howard R, Green Gompany <br /> CONSULTING ENGINEERS <br />May 11, 2000 <br />File: 809411J-0240 <br /> <br />Ms. Michele McPherson <br />Director of Planning <br />City of Elk River <br />PO Box 490 <br />Elk River, MN 55330-0490 <br /> <br />RE: <br /> <br />ELK PATH BUSINESS CENTER <br />PRELIMINARY PLAT <br /> <br />Dear Ms. McPherson: <br /> <br />As requested, we have reviewed the preliminary plat submitted for the Elk Path Business <br />Center. This is the platting of the Hoyt Partners property in the western area of the City. The <br />plat itself creates one lot located at the future intersection of Business Center Ddve and the <br />realignment of Waco Street. The remainder of the plat is a sedes of outlots. Based on our <br />review, we would offer the following comments: <br /> <br />1. We have verified the alignment of Business Center Ddve and find that it replicates the <br /> alignment on the construction plans for this area. There is some curve data on Waco Street <br /> missing from the plat. It appears that Waco Street may be slightly different than the <br /> construction plans. This needs to be vedfied and corrected if necessary. <br /> <br />2. The plat should provide access control along all TH 10 frontage and the Waco Street <br /> frontage of Lot 1, Block 1. <br /> <br />3. The plat provides a 40-foot wide drainage and utility easement from the west line of the <br /> Sherbume County Government Center across the Hoyt Partners property to Waco Street, <br /> which will allow the extension of the trunk sanitary sewer and watermain in this area. <br /> <br />4. We believe that on the east line of Outlot F, located in the southeast corner of the plat, there <br /> is an existing easement for watermain extension, which was accomplished with the Western <br /> Area Phase II project. This should be shown on the plat. <br /> <br />5. We believe that all of the outlots that abut e'.:isting or proposed roadways should provide a <br /> 10-foot drainage and utility easement along these perimeters. <br /> <br />6. The street name of Business Center Ddve is missing from the plat. <br /> <br />7. Outlots A and B, lying west of the realigned Waco Street, should be dedicated to the City. <br /> These two outlots are necessary for the storm water quality and detention pond to service <br /> the extension of Business Center Drive and the realignment of Waco Street. Also, these <br /> two outlots would be necessary for a further extension of Business Center Drive to service <br /> properties lying west of the intersection. <br /> <br />O:~PROJ\809411J\0240~tr 050500 CCounciI,EIkPa~hPlat.doc <br /> <br />1326 Energy Park Drive · St. Paul, MN 55108 ° 651/644-4389 fax 651/644-9446 toll free 888/368-4389 <br /> <br /> <br />
