PAUL <br /> <br />WASECA <br /> <br />As you are aware, we have had a number of meetings with Mr. Boman and representatives <br />of his engineering company to discuss issues on his proposed plat. The plat is located in <br />the central portion of the City and consists of approximately 110 acres divided into 10 <br />residential lots. Through this series of meetings, we have been able to address many of <br />the issues regarding this plat. <br /> <br />The three major issues that we have resolved through these meetings are the number and <br />size of the lots proposed, the extension of the bituminous roadway entirely through the plat <br />to its western border, and the wetland filling and mitigation plan. In fact, on January 2, <br />1996, the Technical Advisory Committee met to review the wetland mitigation proposal <br />and found no problems with it. Therefore, this wetlands plan is working its way through <br />the process. <br /> <br />In the future, we will need some information relative to grading on the site, although it is <br />not very critical with the size lots proposed. We will also need specific storm drainage <br />calculations and a street design, especially through the eastern edge of the plat where the <br />street is through wetlands to be filled. The County should be contacted regarding <br />additional right-of-way on Anoka County 24. Also, in the northwest we talked about <br />adding additional right-of-way to preserve trees. <br /> <br />I see no problems with this development moving through the Planning Commission and <br />then the Council in its preliminary form. If you have any questions regarding this project, <br />please call. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />MSA, CONSULTING ENGINEERS <br />T~rer, P.E. <br /> <br />TJM:tw <br />296-1709.jan <br /> <br />An Equal Opportunity Employer <br /> <br /> <br />
