FROM : DEVELOPMENT ENGINEERING June 10, 2003 PHONE NO. : 7766711 Jun. 10 2003 04:06PM P2 DEVELOPMENT ENGINEERING, P.A. 1296 HUDSON ROAD SAINT PAUL, MINNESOTA 55106 PRONE: 651.776.6211 FAX: 651.776.6711 E -MAIL: DEVENGPA ®USWEST.NET Mr. Lee Elfering, P.E. Howard R. Green Company 1326 Energy Park Drive Saint Paul, Mn 55108 -5202 Subject: Inman Addition - City of Little Canada Comments to the Planning Commision Dear Mr Elfering: 1 would like to reply to the line items of your letter dated June 6, 2003. Preliminary Plat Item 1) The Owner may have some issue with granting an extension of the Leeward Way right - of -way across his property at this time because the adjacent landowner does not want to develop his property. if the City makes this a condition of the Plat then this would be taking and compensation would be required. The proposed subdivision meets all the required rules and regulations of the City of Little Canada's Subdivision Ordinances. The Leeward Way right -of- way could be obtained in the future as both properties are subdivided and platted and the center line alignment is established (will need a curve section). Item 2) The Owner may have some issue with granting additional drainage and utility easements on Lot 2, Block 2. There are no drainage and utility easements on the property as it now exists. The Owner would consider this a taking of MS nronertv. There is nn benefit to the City of Tittle Canada for taking such easements until the adjacent property owner and Mr. Inman wants to jointly develop their properties. Again the proposed subdivision meets all the required rules and regulations of the City of Little Canada's Subdivision Ordinances. The additional drainage and utility easements could be obtained in the Ritzy as both properties are subdivided and platted. Item 3) The 6' drainage and utility easement (versus 5' as shown) is acceptable on the southerly lot line of Lot 1,13lock 2. Page 1 of 2
