23 A master sign plan for the 20 acre site is required and shall be incorporated into the Design Standards. This master sign plan should include a City of Lino Lakes gateway sign/monument at the intersection of Hodgson Road and CR J. Impervious Surface Coverage The allowed impervious surface coverage in a mixed use area is 75%. The proposed 46% post-development impervious surface coverage is compliant. Per the Storm Water Management Plan: Pre-Development Post-Development Impervious 1.93 acres (0.09%) 9.61 acres (46%) Pervious 18.80 acres (99.91%) 11.12 acres (54%) TOTAL AREA 20.73 acres (100%) 20.73 acres (100%) Traffic Study The proposed project is anticipated to generate approximately 1,473 daily trips. 69 trips are estimated to be generated in the AM peak period (7:00 to 8:00) and 123 trips in the PM peak (4:30 to 5:30). A detailed traffic analysis was completed to describe the operating conditions of intersections surrounding the site in terms of a Level of Service (LOS). Facilities are given letter designations from “A” (best operating conditions) to “F” (worst conditions). A Level of Service “D” represents the threshold for acceptable overall intersection conditions during a peak hour. City Code establishes minimum Level Of Service (LOS) requirements. The Code states that if the LOS is A or B, the proposed subdivision will not the degrade the LOS more than one grade. If the LOS is C or D it will not degrade the LOS. Intersections with a LOS of E or F must be improved to ensure a LOS of D or better. The traffic analysis evaluated four surrounding intersections adjacent to the project area. • Co Rd J at Woodbridge Ln • Co Rd J at St. Albans St • Co Rd J at Hodgson Rd • Hodgson Rd at Rohavic Ln As discussed in the WSB Transportation Memorandum, dated February 6, 2019, all intersections, meet the City Code requirements. However, it was noted that the worst movement at the CR J and Hodgson intersection, during the PM peak period, changed from a LOS D to LOS E. The proposed southbound Hodgson Road right turn lane, at CR J adequately mitigates for this degradation.
