Box 490 <br />Elk River. MN 55330 <br /> <br />RE: STAR LIGHT ESTATES <br /> <br />Dear Mr. Harlicker. <br /> <br />As requested, we have reviewed the administrative subdivision for Star light Estates. Based on <br />our review, we would offer the following comments. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />1. <br /> <br />This administrative subdivision proposes to create one lot surrounding an existing home <br />and then leave an outlot with approximately 13.5 acres for future development The <br />outlot will be serviced with a public road off of Meadowvale Road (County Road 32). <br />The SO-foot portion of Outlot A, which will eventually become right-of-way for the public <br />street, is located approximately 200 feet east of Pascal Street. Pascal Street has a <br />significant amount of traffic since it Is the only way to access Oakwood Hills and also <br />servicing a portion of Hobbit Hills. We would suggest that better separation of <br />intersecting streets along a County Road could be achieved if the eO-foot portion of <br />Outlot A for future right-of-way were located on the east side of the existing home rather <br />than the west side. <br /> <br />2. We would also suggest that when the Mure street to service Outlot A Is constructed, the <br />existing home be required to relocate its driveway onto this street. This will eliminate <br />one driveway access onto County Road 32. . <br /> <br />3. The easement provided around the perimeter of Lot 1, Block 1 adjacent to thp. future <br />street right-of-way should be increased to 10 feet rather than the 5 feet she". "n. <br /> <br />4. There is no topography provided for Outlot A, therefore. it is difficult to assess if there <br />are any wetlands or other topographic features that will make the development difficult. <br />We have reviewed the aerial photography for this property and it appears thel'e are <br />minimal. if any, wetlands. We assume that topography and wetland Information will be <br />provided when Outlot A is further subdivided. <br /> <br />'. <br /> <br />. oJProJ~30.o120Jan <br />1326 Energy Parle Drfve · St. Paul.
