MEMORANDUM TO: Chris Leeseberg, Park Planner/Planner FROM: Terry Maurer, City Engineer DATE: March 8, 2006 SUBJECT: Pearle Vision Site Plan Review File # 226-124P As requested, we have reviewed the plan set prepared for the Pearle Vision site in Elk Ridge Center. Plans were prepared bySchoell & Madson and were dated February 24, 2006. Based upon our review and comments received at the staff review meeting, we would offer the following comments: 1. The area is not platted as of yet; obviously, the plat will need to be completed and recorded prior to issuing a building permit. The plat of Elk Ridge Center Second Addition was previously approved but never recorded. Since that time, Elk Ridge Center Third Addition has been approved and platted as if it was the Second. Therefore, the plat of Elk Ridge Center Second Addition will have to be redone, considering that the Third Addition has already been recorded. 2. We have received plans for Elk Ridge Center Phase Two which are currently being reviewed. These plans include the sanitary sewer and water extensions to the lot line or the Pearle Vision site; however, they do not appear to include any of the bituminous paving necessary to provide access to this site. Prior to a building permit being issued, internal access to this lot from both intersections on Holt Avenue will need to be assured of being constructed. 3. The parking lot construction for the Pearle Vision site ends at the property lines of the lot on which it is located. However, there is nothing else built adjacent to this site. The Fire Department is concerned about the ability to turn a fire truck around on this site with no through route available. Development of the Pearle Vision site should either require the first row of parking be constructed on the lot immediately to the south to provide a continuous route through the site with a large emergency vehicle, or other provisions will need to be made to address this issue.
