Green Company CONSULTING ENGINEERS May 11, 2000 File: 809411J-0240 Ms. Michele McPherson Director of Planning City of Elk River PO Box 490 Elk River, MN 55330-0490 RE: ELK PATH BUSINESS CENTER PRELIMINARY PLAT Dear Ms. McPherson: As requested, we have reviewed the preliminary plat submitted for the Elk Path Business Center. This is the platting of the Hoyt Partners property in the western area of the City. The plat itself creates one lot located at the future intersection of Business Center Drive and the realignment of Waco Street. The remainder of the plat is a series of outlots. Based on our review, we would offer the following comments: • 1. We have verified the alignment of Business Center Drive and find that it replicates the alignment on the construction plans for this area. There is some curve data on Waco Street missing from the plat. It appears that Waco Street may be slightly different than the construction plans. This needs to be verified and corrected if necessary. 2. The plat should provide access control along all TH 10 frontage and the Waco Street frontage of Lot 1, Block 1. 3. The plat provides a 40-foot wide drainage and utility easement from the west line of the Sherburne County Government Center across the Hoyt Partners property to Waco Street, which will allow the extension of the trunk sanitary sewer and watermain in this area. 4. We believe that on the east line of Outlot F, located in the southeast corner of the plat, there is an existing easement for watermain extension, which was accomplished with the Western Area Phase II project. This should be shown on the plat. 5. We believe that all of the outlots that abut existing or proposed roadways should provide a 10-foot drainage and utility easement along these perimeters. 6. The street name of Business Center Drive is missing from the plat. 7. Outlots A and B, lying west of the realigned Waco Street, should be dedicated to the City. These two outlots are necessary for the storm water quality and detention pond to service the extension of Business Center Drive and the realignment of Waco Street. Also, these two outlots would be necessary for a further extension of Business Center Drive to service properties lying west of the intersection. • 0:\PROJ\809411J\0240\Itr 050500 CCouncil,ElkPathPlat.doc 1326 Energy Park Drive • St. Paul, MN 55108 • 651/644-4389 fax 651/644-9446 toll free 888/368-4389
