16 <br />3. The cost, operation and maintenance of the utility system are consistent with the <br />normal costs as projected by the water and sewer rate study; and <br />4. The developer payments will offset additional costs of utility installation or <br />future operation and maintenance. <br /> <br />Erickson Estates is consistent with infill policies. With an approved Comprehensive <br />Plan Amendment, the development will be within the current Utility Staging Area <br />1A=2008-2015. No new utility or street extensions are required. The cost, operation <br />and maintenance of the utility system is consistent with the normal costs projected by <br />the water and sanitary system plans. No future utility costs are proposed. <br /> <br />(c) Roads or highways to serve the subdivision. A proposed subdivision shall meet <br />the following requirements for level of service (LOS), as defined by the Highway <br />Capacity Manual: <br />1. If the existing level of service (LOS) outside of the proposed subdivision is A or <br />B, traffic generated by a proposed subdivision will not degrade the level of service <br />more than one grade; <br />2. If the existing LOS outside of the proposed subdivision is C, traffic generated <br />by a 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 <br />by a 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 <br />access to the subdivision. If the existing level of service is E or F, the subdivision <br />developer must provide, as part of the proposed project, improvements needed to <br />ensure a level of service D or better; <br />5. Existing roads and intersections providing access to the subdivision must have <br />the structural capacity to accommodate projected traffic from the proposed <br />subdivision or the 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 <br />to correct any street deficiencies; <br />7. The LOS requirements in divisions (2)(c)1. to 4. above do not apply to the I- <br />35W/Lake Drive or I-35E/Main St. interchanges. At city discretion, interchange <br />impacts must be evaluated in conjunction with Anoka County and the Minnesota <br />Department of Transportation, and a plan must be prepared to determine <br />improvements needed to resolve deficiencies. This plan must determine traffic <br />generated by the subdivision project, how this traffic contributes to the total traffic, <br />and the time frame of the improvements. The plan also must examine financing <br />options, including project contribution and cost sharing among other jurisdictions <br />and other properties that contribute to traffic at the interchange; and <br /> 8. The city does not relinquish any rights of local determination. <br /> <br />Erickson Estates meets the requirements for level of service (LOS). White Pine Road and <br />Baldwin Lake Road are classified as minor collector roads. The existing roads and <br />intersections providing access to the development have structural capacity to
