.ver MEMORANDUM To: Jeremy Barnhart, Planning Manager From: Terry Maurer, Public Works Director ~~ ~~ Re: MSB Campus Addition, Job # 226-294P Date: September 11, 2008 As requested we review the plat of MSB Campus Addition located at the southeast quadrant of 193' Avenue and Evans Street. The proposed plat creates approximately a 4-acre lot for the Minnesota School of Business building and a 3-acre outlot lying to the east. Based on our review, we would offer the following comments: 1. The two lots should only be allowed one access point onto 193' Avenue. The site should be laid out so that they can share this access along with the access onto Evans Street. If the access onto 193` Avenue is along the lot line between Lot 1 and C+utlot A, it will be a right-in, right-out only as there is a proposed concrete median with the 193` Avenue project to define the turn lane at the intersection. To gain full access onto 193` Avenue, the drivewaywill need to be moved further to the east and would therefore require additional easement or a cross-access agreement over C+utlot A. The rema;r,;r,g frontage along 193` Avenue (outside of the driveway] should be designated as restricted access. 2. Sewer and water is available from Evans Street, or the water could also be extended from 193` Avenue. There will be a requirement for internal hydrants, therefore the watermain will be considered a public facility. Twenty-foot wide drainage and utility easement will be required across Lot 1 and C-utlot A for any waterniain extensions. 3. There is existing diagonal parking along Evans Street at the south end of Lot 1. It appears from the topographythat this falls within the lot itself. It appears that additional easements should be provided to cover this existing parking area. This easement would be in favor of whoever would owns the parking, not the City. If you have any questions regarding any of these comments, please contact me.
