2. The cost of utilities and street extensions must be covered by one or more of the <br />following: <br />a. An immediate assessment to the proposed subdivision; <br />b. One hundred percent of the street and utility costs are privately financed by the <br />developer; <br />c. The cost of regional and/or oversized trunk utility lines can be financed with available <br />city trunk funds; and <br />d. The cost and timing of the expenditure of city funds are consistent with the city's <br />capital improvement plan. <br />3. The cost, operation and maintenance of the utility system are consistent with the normal <br />costs as projected by the water and sewer rate study; and <br />4. The developer payments will offset additional costs of utility installation or future <br />operation and maintenance. <br />Houle Addition is consistent with infill policies. The development is within the current Utility <br />Staging Area 1A=2008-2015. No new utility or street extensions are required. The cost, <br />operation and maintenance of the utility system is consistent with the normal costs projected <br />by the water and sanitary system plans. No future utility costs are proposed. <br />(c) Roads or highways to serve the subdivision. A proposed subdivision shall meet the <br />following requirements for level of service (LOS), as defined by the Highway Capacity <br />Manual: <br />1. If the existing level of service (LOS) outside of the proposed subdivision is A or B, <br />traffic generated by a proposed subdivision will not degrade the level of service more than <br />one grade; <br />2. If the existing LOS outside of the proposed subdivision is C, traffic generated by a <br />proposed subdivision will not degrade the level of service below C; <br />3. If the existing LOS outside of the proposed subdivision is D, traffic generated by a <br />proposed subdivision will not degrade the level of service below D; <br />4. The existing LOS must be D or better for all streets and intersections providing access <br />to the subdivision. If the existing level of service is E or F, the subdivision developer must <br />provide, as part of the proposed project, improvements needed to ensure a level of service <br />D or better; <br />5. Existing roads and intersections providing access to the subdivision must have the <br />structural capacity to accommodate projected traffic from the proposed subdivision or the <br />developer will pay to correct any structural deficiencies; <br />6. The traffic generated from a proposed subdivision shall not require city street <br />improvements that are inconsistent with the Lino Lakes capital improvement plan. <br />However, the city may, at its discretion, consider developer -financed improvements to <br />correct any street deficiencies; <br />7. The LOS requirements in divisions (2)(c)1. to 4. above do not apply to the I-35W/Lake <br />Drive or I-35E/Main St. interchanges. At city discretion, interchange impacts must be <br />evaluated in conjunction with Anoka County and the Minnesota Department of <br />Transportation, and a plan must be prepared to determine improvements needed to resolve <br />deficiencies. This plan must determine traffic generated by the subdivision project, how <br />this traffic contributes to the total traffic, and the time frame of the improvements. The plan <br />also must examine financing options, including project contribution and cost sharing <br />among other jurisdictions and other properties that contribute to traffic at the interchange; <br />and <br />2 <br />
