The <br />submittal package included eight sheets prepared by John Oliver and Associates. Based on <br />our review of this submittal, we would offer the following comments: <br /> <br />A. <br /> <br />Preliminary Plat <br /> <br />1. <br /> <br />As Evans Avenue meets 193rd Street, it is just coming out of a curve. To <br />create a better intersection, a piece of tangent at least 40-50 feet long should <br />be added at the intersection of 193rd Street. This will give a better <br />opportunity for cars to be at 90 degrees to the intersection. <br /> <br />2. <br /> <br />The right-of-way of Evans Avenue is 80 feet as it comes off of 193rd, and <br />narrows to 70 feet where there is highway right-of-way on the west side. <br />Anoka Electric Cooperative (ABC) has electrical facilities on the west side of <br />Evans A venue just into the highway right-of-way. We understand from the <br />Developer they have discussed the need for easements with AEC and have <br />been told that no additional easements will be needed along the Evans <br />Avenue/Trunk Highway 169 alignment, but an additional 10 feet will be <br />needed on the west side of Lot 1, Block 1. This change should be made in <br />the plat and the Developer should provide a letter from AEC indicating this <br />desire. <br /> <br />3. <br /> <br />Additional easements will be needed on the plat for the sanitary sewer and <br />water alignment through Block 2. <br /> <br />2301226-1503.jun <br />
