P Plat, Hilltop Woods Estates Page 2 <br /> March 19 , 1993 <br /> • The remaining undeveloped portion of the 40 acres could be <br /> labeled an outlot and deemed not buildable, however, staff <br /> believes Mr. Gow is proposing to construct his own home on this <br /> portion of the property, therefore, staff is recommending it be <br /> made a 7th platted lot that can be resubdivided in the future. <br /> CITY PROJECT <br /> Mr. Gow is proposing to have the public improvements associated <br /> with this plat be done as a City project. He has not yet <br /> petitioned the City, however, if he does, this petition would <br /> be considered at the same time the Council considers <br /> preliminary plat. Because this plat is not served by City <br /> sewer and water, the only public improvements would be the road <br /> and associated storm drainage. <br /> STREETS <br /> Attached is a memo from City Engineer, Terry Maurer, dated <br /> March 16, 1993 . Mr. Maurer' s comments regarding streets should <br /> be incorporated in the design of the road in this plat. <br /> Because this is proposed to be a City project, the City <br /> Engineer will be doing that design. The following are other <br /> comments regarding the road: <br /> • a. Staff is recommending the name of the road in this plat be <br /> Victoria Drive.

This <br /> intersection should also be squared up with Meadowvale <br /> Road as much as possible. This may require some <br /> realignment of 205th Avenue. The City is working with the <br /> County Engineer regarding this intersection. <br /> c. There is currently a house on this 40 acre parcel that <br /> would need to be removed for the construction of the road. <br /> d. A variance is required for the length of the road in this <br /> plat. Future easements from this road to adjacent <br /> properties should be considered. <br /> e. Mr. Maurer' s memo comments on the availability of <br /> right-of-way from the plat boundary to Meadowvale Road. <br /> The road is situated in an easement from Mrs . Coates to <br /> the City of Elk River. Staff recommends the City Attorney <br /> review this easement. <br /> DRAINAGE <br /> 110 There are no wetlands associated with this 40 acre parcel . The <br /> proposed drainage easement to accommodate storm water from the <br /> plat is a depression, not a wetland. If that portion of the <br /> proposed drainage easement currently located outside of the <br />
