Ms. Katie Larsen 09/02/2020 Page 2 Sidewalks and trails will need to be extended through the site. 1. Staff informed the applicant that there will be no additional traffic allowed on Red Oak. The Northpointe Traffic Study completed in 2013 included anticipated traffic from a proposed senior apartment complex on outlot C. Based on ITE rates at the time, the senior apartments would generate 292 daily trips, 17 AM peak hour trips and 21 PM peak hour trips, compared to the proposed site that would generate 185 daily trips, 10 AM peak hour trips and 13 PM peak hour trips. The Traffic Study should address this change. The traffic study shall include the intersections of Red Oak and 20th Avenue, 215t Avenue and Cedar Street, Birch Street and 201h Avenue and 201h Avenue at the proposed site intersection. The analysis should address the intersection geometrics (i.e. turn lanes) and traffic control needed to accommodate the proposed site development. 2. The Northpointe Traffic Study should be reviewed to determine if all improvements recommended have been completed or still required. 3. The applicant will need to receive approval from Anoka County for the site access to 20th Avenue. The proposed access is approximately 1,300 feet south of Birch Street. It is anticipated that they will require left and right turn lanes on 20th Avenue. 4. The City will review the access location for conformance with our Comprehensive Plan and future development / access to the west of 20th Avenue. 5. Right of way shall be provided at the impacted intersections to accommodate any required or future improvements. In addition, right of way shall be provided east of the Birch Street for the future connection to the existing Northpointe development. 6. A noise study will be required, and noise attenuation should be accounted for in plat layout. Currently there is no space provided for noise attenuation and we anticipate this will impact to the proposed plat layout/ density. • Wetlands The site includes 35 acres of wetland and buffer. An approved wetland delineation will be required. The applicant will need to work with both RCWD and VLAMWO for Wetland Conservation Act regulations. • Landscaping The landscaping will be reviewed with a future submittal. • Floodplain The site includes 60-70% Zone A Floodplain. A Base Flood Elevation will need to be determined and approved by FEMA. A LOMR will be required and floodplain mitigation will be required as applicable. • Drainage and Utility Easements Drainage and Utility easements, through 6620 20th Avenue, will be required to extend municipal utilities from Cypress Street to the proposed development. The proposed public road serving the portion of the site near Birch Street will require Right of Way from the parcel located at 6620 20th Avenue. Right of way along 20th Ave will need to be dedicated along with the proposed internal local roadways. Conservation easements will be required over wetlands. Standard side yard drainage and utility easements and easements over public utilities will be required. Development Agreement Will be required with Final Platting process. • Grading Agreement A Grading Agreement is not applicable at this time. • Stormwater Maintenance Agreement A Stormwater Maintenance Agreement will be required. Public facilities will be covered by the City's Programmatic Maintenance Agreement. Burque Concept Plan Engineering Review
