MRR -03 -2000 14.47 HR GREEN CO. Howard R. Green Co-r-pany CONSULTING ENGINEERS • March 3, 2000 File: 809310J-0240 Mr. Anthony J. Pint, P.E. Van Sickle, Allen and Associates, Inc. 2955 Xenium Lane N, Suite 10 Plymouth, MN 55441 RE NORTHEAST RESIDENT RESPITE HOMES CITY OF LITTLE CANADA, MINNESOTA Dear Mr. Pini: 651 644 2349 P.02/03 After our meeting last week with the. City of Little Canada, Greg Schroeder, Public Works Director, and 1 met with Steve Grittman, Clty Planner, to review your development. Based on cur discussion, following is a summary of the issues needing to be resolved: _ 1. We discussed your suggestion that the curb around the parking area be omitted on the east side to facilitate sheet flow onto the St. Paul Water Works property. We would suggest an alternative to omitting the curb. Rather than omitting it we would suggest a series of three or more spaces where approximately 1 foot of curb is omitted to allow drainage. Beyond the openings a small area of rip rap should be provided. We believe that this will accomplish two things: first, it will promote sheet drainage that the St. Paul Water Works is looking for and second, the small rip rap area will take the place of a storm water quality pond for the small drainage area that does not flow over a grass area. 2. As we discussed a 12 -foot wide driveway easement will need to be described through the City property for access from your garage to McMenemy Road. 3. After our meeting we did further research on the property nearest Little Canada Road. It is in fact stilt in the name of St. John's Church. Therefore, your proposed water service will cross both the City property and the St. John's Church property. • It will be necessary for you to obtain an easement from SL John's Church for the water service to cross their property. Likewise, we will need you to prepare an easement description for. the portion of the City property your water service will be crossing. The domestic service curb stop should be placed at the Little Canada Road right - of-way line. 4. As we discussed when we met, the 15 -foot driveway easement.for access to the rear of your proposed building will need to be realigned so that it meets the access to the parking area. 0:wROJ18a0310 10240LLtr 34-00 APInLdao 1328 Energy Peal Drive • St. Paul, MN 55108 • 851/644 -4389 fax 66116444446 toll free 8881368.4399 Page 43
