BOx 490 (763)241-7034.800-594-5208 <br /> FAX(763)441-2264 <br /> Elk River, MN 55330 <br /> Re: Birchview <br /> Dear Ms McPherson; <br /> County Highway 33 has been identified in the Sherburne County Transportation Plan as a <br /> possible major east-west collector; therefore it requires special consideration as it relates to plat <br /> development. The number of access points along CH 33 must be minimized and the access <br /> point's chosen must serve the development of parcels on both sides of the roadway. Once access <br /> is granted at this location we may be locked in on both sides of CH 33 for a possible four legged <br /> intersection; it is likely no other access point will be allowed to CH 33 for this area, with the <br /> exception of extending Smith Street to the north. Considering the limited site distance in this <br /> • area as well as the high ratio of truck traffic we will allow access to CH 33 with the following <br /> conditions. <br /> 1. Pay the required permit and signage fees ($550). The public works department will install <br /> traffic signs. The developer must notify the public works department for installation. <br /> 2. A right turn lane is required at 207th Avenue and must be constructed to MnDOT standards <br /> as listed on the detail. Be advised that this turn lane is located outside the boundary of the <br /> plat; there is only 33' of right of way. Before access permits will be granted we require a <br /> signed slope easement agreement with the affected landowners. <br /> 3. We require 50' of right of way be granted in fee title to Sherburne County. <br /> 4. The slopes of the access must be constructed at 1:6 within the right of way. <br /> 5. The developer is responsible for drainage studies. If a culvert is necessary within the right of <br /> way of CH 33, it must have 1:6 safety aprons and grates. Both the cost of the culvert and the <br /> installation are the responsibility of the developer. <br /> 6. Make all pavement-marking changes as necessary. <br /> If you have any questions, please call me at 241-7034 <br /> Since ely, G� <br /> Richard D.
