3 <br /> <br />Easements <br /> <br />Standard drainage and utility easements are being dedicated on individual lots. Additional <br />drainage and utility easements have been dedicated along Block 1 and 3 as required per previous <br />review comments. <br /> <br />Street and Utilities <br /> <br />The public streets (Village Drive, Woods Edge Boulevard and Town Center Parkway) that <br />provide access to the site have been constructed. The internal private street, Eagle Court, was <br />platted as Outlot A in the 1st Addition and will be owned and maintained by the homeowners <br />association (HOA). These private drives are currently shown as 26-feet wide (back-to-back) <br />which is consistent with City standards. A section of these private streets were constructed in <br />Phase I and the remaining sections will be paved with Phase II. <br /> <br />All public utilities were installed with Phase I. <br /> <br />Public Land Dedication and Fees <br /> <br />The City is requiring cash in lieu of land dedication for the entire Woods Edge development. <br /> <br />Woods Edge 2nd Addition <br />Total # Units = 52 <br />x Park Dedication fee $2,575 <br />= Cash in Lieu Value $133,900 <br /> <br />The City is working with Anoka County Parks to development a playground south of Outlot C, <br />Woods Edge 1st Addition.

All of the townhomes will be part of a homeowners association (HOA) that will be <br />responsible for maintenance of the common areas, including the private streets. The HOA will <br />provide snow removal and landscape maintenance for the individual lots and the common areas. <br /> <br />The City Council did approve a text amendment allowing vinyl siding on the homes. However, <br />there was much discussion about the appearance of vinyl. In order to retain the higher quality <br />appearance of buildings in the Lino Lakes Town Center, the applicant has revised the plans to <br />provide LP or Hardi-board trim on the units rather than vinyl. Only the horizontal trim will be <br />vinyl to ensure seamless siding installation—all window and vertical trim on the buildings will
