I~'. . .I.~ . /- . . , ' , MEMORANDUM SUBJECT: Aldi's Site Plan File #226-ISOP As requested, we have reviewed the revised submittal for the Aldi's store to be located in Elk Ridge Center 4th Addition. Based on our review we would offer the following comments: 1. The site plan has been revised in response to our previous discussion with the developers to improve the traffic flow in and around the proposed Aldi's site. 2. Sheet Ui - Utility Plan, shows an extension from an 8-inch sanitary sewer stub with a 45-degree bend to a new manhole with two 6-inch services coming out of it. This is an unacceptable design. 45-degree bends are not allowed in sewer lines nor are sewer services allowed to come into manhole structures. 3. The cleanout shown in the sanitary sewer line to the Aldi's site should be changed to a sampling manhole, 48 inches in diameter. 4. There is concern regarding the extremely long water service. There is approximat~ly 450 feet of 8 and 6-inch watermain leading from the main line to the rear of the Aldi's facility. This has significant potential for undesirable quality of water to serve the Aldi's facility. 5. The Fire Chief has approved the hydrant location on the east side of the proposed store. A drainage and utility easement over the 8-inch watermain leading up to and including the hydrant needs to be provided, since waterlines with hydrant lines on are considered public, so that the Elk River Municipal Utilities can operate and maintain the hydrant. 6. The proposed final plat for Elk. Ridge Center 4th Addition has been revised to accommodate the proposed Aldi's layout. The above-discussed drainage and utility easement for the watermain and hydrant should be included on the final plat. If you have any questions regarding any of these comments, please contact me.
