Box 490 <br />Elk River, MN 55330 <br /> <br />RE: Twin Lakes Townhomes <br /> <br />Dear Mr. Wensman; <br /> <br />After reviewing the proposed preliminary plat, an access permit will be required with the following conditions: <br /> <br />1) The County is very concerned with the access location as shown and how it ties into the realignment <br /> of CSAH 13. Specifically, the access is very close to where the curve ends, where the median ends, <br /> and where the four-lane transitions to two-lanes. This is not a good location to introduce an access <br /> that will be generating so much traffic. <br />2) Since the access will be generating a fair amount of traffic, the County will be requiring turnlanes. <br /> In this location we feel it would be best to put in a left turnlane and a right turnlane. From the copies <br /> of the proposed plat that we received it is extremely difficult to see just how this requirement might <br /> be met. <br />3) Based on the information submitted the County will NOT grant an access permit. <br /> <br />If you have any questions or concerns please do not hesitate to call me at the above phone number. <br /> <br /> Sin;erely' <br /> <br />'j~'onda F.
