PP & Variance, Meadowvale Heights Page 5 March 19 , 1993 • UNDEFINED PARCELS Mrs . Barnier' s western 40 acres should be labeled an outlot or exception since it has been included in the plat boundary. Also, the large wetlands included within the plat boundaries may be most appropriately labeled outlots, depending on ownership. Further lands adjacent to the wetland in the southeast corner of the plat have been left unattached. The use and ownership of these properties should be determined. STREET NAMES Staff is wrestling with errors made long ago regarding street names . The street in the southern end of the plat labeled 192 Avenue lies south of where that number falls on the City' s grid system and north of where 192 Avenue is actually situated, (south of the railroad tracks) . There is no good answer to naming this street, however, staff feels the least objectionable name is Elgin Drive. Staff proposes Elgin Drive run from Meadowvale Road on the south to Denver Street on the north (eliminating the northern 193 1/2 Avenue as identified on the plat) . Staff further recommends that the southern 193 1/2 Avenue identified on the plat be renamed 192 1/2 Court, Denver Street south of 193 Avenue be renamed Denver Circle, 194 Avenue is renamed 195 Avenue, and Elgin Street in the north end of the • plat is renamed Elgin Court south of staff ' s proposed 195th Avenue. UPA EASEMENT Running east and west through the approximate center of the plat, is an United Power Association easement. The developers must gain the approval of UPA to construct a road within their easement. The lots affected by this easement all appear to have adequate building site outside of the easement. However, lot 23, block 4 is somewhat restricted. OTHER APPROVALS 1 . MN Health Department permit for the extension of water (City Engineer) . 2 . MPCA permit for the extension of sewer (City Engineer) . 3 . NPDES permit for grading (Developer) . 4 . Construction permit from the County Engineering Department for work done in the right-of-way of Meadowvale Road (Developer) . The County Engineering • Department has reviewed this plat and is requesting an additional 17 feet of right-of-way for Meadowvale Road. This may cause the elimination of some lots .
