ANDREW'S CHURCH EXPANSION <br /> <br />Dear Mr. Harlicker: <br /> <br />As requested, we have reviewed the plans submitted for the proposed expansion to the St. <br />Andrew's Church facilities. The plans were prepared by G.L.T. Architects and Larson <br />Engineering and consisted of an existing site plan, grading, drainage and erosion control <br />plan, utility plan, and construction details along with drainage calculations. Based on our <br />review and comments received at the staff review meeting, we would offer the following <br />comments: <br /> <br />1. The proposal is to remove the old church building and the gymnasium! cafeteria. New <br />construction would consist of an addition connecting the existing grade school to the <br />new church building, along with a small addition in the southeast comer of the new <br />church building. <br /> <br />2. A requirement of the demolition permit should be that all trucks accessing and leaving <br />the site should go east on 4th Street to Gates Avenue, then north along Gates/Freeport <br />Avenue to School Street, and then east on School Street to access Trunk Highway 169. <br />This route will avoid construction traffic either south on J ackson Avenue in the vicinity <br />of Trunk Highway 10 and J ackson Avenue, or east on Main Street near the intersection <br />of Main Street and Trunk Highway 169. <br /> <br />3. The storm drainage calculations appear to be adequate for the proposed changes in the <br />St. Andrew's Church campus. <br /> <br />4. The addition is proposed to gain sanitary sewer service by constructing a new 4" service <br />in the existing facility under Irving Avenue, bringing the service into the southwest <br />comer of the addition. A new 6" waterline is proposed to be brought in from the <br />Phone: 763.635.1000 <br />Fax: 763.635.1090 <br /> <br />www.cLelk-river.mn.us <br />
