<br />13880 Highway 10 <br />Elk River, MN 55330 <br />(763) 241-7013.800-594-5208 <br /> <br /> <br />SEP 1 3 1.006 <br /> <br />Sherburne County <br />PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT <br /> <br />September 5, 2006 <br /> <br />City of Elk River <br />Attn: Chris Leeseberg <br />13065 Orono Parkway <br />P.O. Box 490 <br />Elk River, MN 55330 <br /> <br />RE: Jay Albrecht Proposal <br /> <br />Dear Mr. Leeseberg; <br /> <br />We have reviewed air photos and a drawing dated 8/09/06 for the Jay Albrecht property (75-113- <br />3300) located adjacent to County Highways 32 & 79 and within section 6 of the City of Elk River. We <br />also have had conversations with Jay Albrecht and Keith Evenson regarding required conditions to <br />meet county approval for this subdivision. <br /> <br />We have indicated to the developers that we would approve three driveway accesses for this <br />proposal, if accepted by the City of Elk River. Any significant change to the proposal will necessitate a <br />reevaluation of access issues. The delineated wetland line does nothing to tell a potential owner of <br />County Ditch # 1 being located on their property. What informs a potential owner/buyer of the <br />presence of County Ditch # 1 and the need for periodic ditch maintenance across their property? <br /> <br />Ghost platting of the property is recommended in order that the proposed building sites be identified <br />for lot size, buildability, proper setbacks, and be orientated to the future street. The County prefers all <br />access for future subdivision be to an internal street and then to CH 79. At this time, the existing <br />access for Parcel D to CH 32 may remain; however it should not be assumed that a future public <br />street access to GH 32 will be granted. <br /> <br />Please consider the following to be county requirements for plat approval for this proposal: <br />1. We require that 50' of right of way along CH 32 and CH 79 be donated and dedicated to <br />Sherburne County and that it be indicated on the drawing, as measured from the centerline <br />of the traveled roadways. A portion of CH 32 in the northeast quadrant divides the <br />proposal and will require right of way dedication on both sides of the highway. <br />2. The limited access shall be applied to the drawings adjacent to all county highway <br />frontages. All driveway openings on the drawings shall be designated 30 feet. <br />
