No. 08-714 RECEIVED JtJ~i 0 2100@ Below are our responses to the comments you forwarded us from the Elk River City Engineer per your request. Our responses Ire as follows: 1. The site proposes three access points onto Zane Street; the most northerly lines with a driveway across the street; the middle one is adequately offset from the existing driveways on the opposite side of the street; and the most southerly one is actually on property not owned by the devel.Qpment. In ot'der to provide the access and parking shown in this area, either an easement or acquisition of this triangular piece of property will be required. Even if the most southerly driveway is eliminated, the parking and circulation provided by this area would be required for the development. Therefore, acquisition of the property and/or an easement for its use should be a condition of the site plan approval. Owner will be responsible for acquiring the required property or the necessary easement into the adjacent property. 2. The storm sewer concept shown is a pipe system pick up the drainage internally and convey it to a pond to be constructed on a parcel to the south. This entire system will be considered private and must be maintained by the owners of the buildings. The piece of property that the buildings sit on relative to the piece of property that the pond is proposed on meets at a single point. Therefore, there is a small piece of property from an adjoining owner that will need to be acquired or an easement granted to implement the storm drainage concept shown. Finally, we are in the process of reviewing the storm sewer calculations and will comment on them at a later date. Owner will be responsible for maintaining storm sewer system and acquiring necessary easement. 3. The buildings on the site are proposed to be serviced by sanitary sewer and water from Zane Street. The water system shows two connections into the lb-inch existing watertnain under Zane Street. It appears that the watermain shown on Sheet C7 of 8 does not extend far enough to
