<br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Country Crossing, 2nd Addn. <br />June 28, 1994 <br /> <br />Page 2 <br /> <br />'~ <br /> <br />'LOT SIZES <br /> <br />All of the lots proposed in the preliminary plat meet the minimum lot size <br />requirement of 10,000 square feet with 80 feet of frontage and 100 feet on <br />corner lots. The proposed plat has a range of lot sizes from the minimum <br />10,000 square feet (2 within the plat) up to 26,000 square feet at the very <br />southwest corner of the plat. The average lot size within the development is <br />13,319 square feet. <br /> <br />PROPOSED ROADS <br /> <br />Access to the plat can be achieved via Joplin Street extension, which is <br />currently labeled as 182nd Avenue. This entrance aligns with the entrance <br />to Country Crossings First Addition immediately to the east. The second <br />access point to the plat is off of County Road No. 30. The County Engineer <br />has recommended that the access off of County Road No. 30 align with Macon <br />Street to the south. Therefore, the plat should be adjusted to meet the <br />County's concerns. Lastly, the proposed cul-de-sac is approximately 400 feet <br />in length, which is well short of the City's maximum cul-de-sac length. <br /> <br />Along the north boundaries of the preliminary plat is Orono Parkway. The <br />dedication of this roadway will be necessary at this time to facilitate the <br />extension of public utilities to not only serve Country Crossings Second <br />Addition but Sandpiper Estates, the Government Center, and the balance of <br />the western area. The exact design of Orono Parkway at this point has not <br />been decided. If the parkway concept is continued to Joplin Street, <br />consideration should be given to continuing the parkway for a short distance <br />west of Joplin Street before tapering back into a residential road. This will <br />provide for the workable geometrics of that intersection of Orono Parkway <br />and Joplin Street as well as a uniform intersection design. <br /> <br />PEDESTRIAN ACCESS <br /> <br />It is anticipated that Joplin Street will have a pedestrian system on both <br />sides extending north from County Road No. 30. This plat will be able to <br />access that system and tie into other pedestrian improvements in the area. <br />In addition, some pedestrian facility is also anticipated along County Road <br />No. 30 acting as a continuation of Country Crossings First Addition and <br />extending further west to tie into Sandpiper Estates. The developer has <br />proposed an outlet from the plat that would be utilized for trail construction <br />to connect with the pedestrian system. <br /> <br />cc2nd.pc <br />
