October 4, 2002 File: 818600J -0240 Honorable Chair and Planning Commission City of Little Canada 515 Little Canada Road East Little Canada, MN 55117-1633 RE: THE PRESERVE CITY OF LITTLE CANADA :r OFD a0,�1 4 PAC` Dear Planning Commission Members: As requested, we have reviewed the resubmitted package for the proposed "The Preserve" development located east of McMenemy Street between the wetland and Viking Drive. The submittal documents were prepared by ProTerra Design Associates and Metro Land Surveying & Engineering and included plans and drainage calculations. The plans were dated September 27, 2002 and were received on September 30, 2002. Based upon our review and conversations with other City staff, we would offer the following comments: Preliminary Plat: )orl" (0,K) 1. An access limitation should be shown on the west lot line of Lot 1 to prevent driveway access to McMenemy Street. ,,f da -2. Outlot D should be�deeded to the adjacent property to the so that the property will be maintained. �(v -tA- .Per +s e; st. 3. An additional 5 feet of drainage and utility easement should be granted from lot 12 and lot 13 for a total of a 30 -foot easement over the existing Mn /DOT storm pipe. We have attempted to contact Mn /DOT to discuss the easement and storm water pipe as it would be affected by the proposed development but no response has been received at this time. 4. All drainage and utility easements should be shown on the lot lines along with all OK necessary easements for the new utilities. (Le. an additional easement thru Lot 1 for the storm sewer run to the proposed pond and easements for the storm water ponds that encroach into lot 1 block 1 and lot 1 block 2.) 5. The road right -of -way must be moved off the Williams Pipeline easement except where a perpendicular crossing occurs. The Williams Pipeline easement has not been „I? determined in all areas. There are also discrepancies between the information within City records regarding the Williams easement verses what is shown on the preliminary plat. One area in question is directly east of outlot D. The preliminary plat is indicating the Williams Pipeline easement terminates at the proposed plat property line, while the attached survey within City records indicates the easement extends approximately 10 to 15 feet within the property. The limits of the entire Williams Pipeline easement area must be determined and agreed upon by all parties prior to approval to ensure that no overlapping of the Williams Pipeline easement and road right -of -way occurs.
