<br /> <br />MEMORANDUM <br /> <br />TO: Chris Leeseberg, Planner <br /> <br />FROM: Terry Maurer, City Engineer ~ <br />DATE: December 7,2006 <br /> <br />SUBJECT: Aldi's Site Plan <br />File #226-150P <br /> <br />As requested, we have reviewed the revised submittal for the AIdi's store to be located iii Elk <br />Ridge Center 4th Addition. Based on our review we would offer the following comments: <br /> <br />1. The site plan has been revised in response to our previous discussion with the <br />developers to improve the traffic flow in and around the proposed AIdi's site. <br /> <br />2. Sheet Vi - Utility Plan, shows an extension from an 8-inch sanitary sewer stub with a <br />45-degree bend to a new manhole with two 6-inch services coming out of it. This is an <br />unacceptable design. 45-degree bends are not allowed in sewer lines nor are sewer <br />services allowed to come into manhole structures. <br /> <br />3. The deanout shown in the sanitary sewer line to the AIdi's site should be changed to a <br />sampling manhole, 48 inches in diameter. <br /> <br />4. There is concern regarding the extremely long water service. There is approximately 450 <br />feet of 8 and 6-inch watermain leading from the main line to the rear of the AIdi's <br />facility. This has significant potential for undesirable quality of water to serve the AIdi's <br />facility. <br /> <br />5. The Fire Chief has approved the hydrant location on the east side of the proposed store. <br />A drainage and utility easement over the 8-inch watermain leading up to and including <br />the hydrant needs to be provided, since waterlines with hydrant lines on are considered <br />public, so that the Elk River Municipal Utilities can operate and maintain the hydrant. <br /> <br />6. The proposed final plat for Elk Ridge Center 4th Addition has been revised to <br />accommodate the proposed AIdi's layout. The above-discussed drainage and utility <br />easement for the watermain and hydrant should be included on the final plat. <br /> <br />If you have any questions regarding any of these comments, please contact me. <br /> <br />S:\PLA.NN:WG\Case Files\2006\aJP\CU 06-27 Aldi's\12 07 06 Engr's memo.doc <br />
