Ms. McPherson <br /> • June 22, 2000 <br /> Page 3 <br /> plans. These will be reviewed in greater detail with the Fire Chief and the Elk <br /> River Municipal Utilities when construction plans are prepared. <br /> 3. This area will ultimately be served by the high pressure water zone in the City. <br /> Therefore, each water service should be provided with a pressure-reducing valve <br /> when installed. <br /> 4. Sanitary sewer service is provided from two locations off of Twin Lakes Road. <br /> The layout appears adequate to provide service to the proposed units. <br /> 5. The sanitary sewer and water systems within this development will be considered <br /> public. Therefore, adequate drainage and utility easements need to be provided <br /> so that the City and Elk River Municipal Utilities can legally access the site to <br /> operate and maintain the public utilities. This can be accomplished either by <br /> creating a drainage and utility easement over the entire common space or by <br /> describing a specific drainage and utility easement to encompass the sewer and <br /> water. <br /> 6. Eight-foot wide trails have been added throughout the development as discussed <br /> at the last Planning Commission meeting. We question whether 8' is wide <br /> enough or would the Park and Recreation Commission prefer 10', which is <br /> typically their standard. <br /> 7. The street section shown which will be private is 28' wide. At this width, parking <br /> would be allowed on one side of the roadway. At the last Planning Commission <br /> • meeting, there was some discussion about whether or not additional off-street <br /> parking stalls are needed throughout the development. We would suggest that <br /> they are not needed because of the long stretches of roadway with no driveways <br /> or units on one side. This will provide ample space for on-street parking at four <br /> or five locations throughout the development. <br /> 8. The site plan shows providing the additional half of cul-de-sac for Line Avenue in <br /> the northwest corner of the development is also providing sewer and water stubs <br /> extending at one location to the property line to the north. <br /> If you have any questions regarding any of these comments, please call. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Howard R.
