1!:?:J-, FRUN LITY OF LINO LAKES TO 784722- P.06 ^ The City in past plat reviews required lots to be accessed through an internal streets to protect more heavily travelled street corridors . Most recently, Fox Trace was required to modify its plat to avoid direct lot access onto Ware Road. Emphasizing the isolation of Lots 1 and 2 is the need to extend utilities from the proposed cul-de-sac along side lot lanes to serve Lots 1 and 2. This long utility extension would become a City owned utility with the final plat approval . We would express concerns with regard to the maintenance and upkeep of this sewer line which would require the disruption of private yards. The City Engineer should comment on the acceptability of the utility arrangement . Based on the aforementioned issues, we would suggest that the preliminary plat should be reconfigured so as not to isolate said Lots I and 2 from the balance of the subdivision. This issue should be subject to further comment by the City Engineer. One additional concern in regard to lot configuration relates to the side lot line separating Lots 8 and 9 of Block 1 . According to Section 1001 . 08 , Subd. 6 (3) of the Subdivision Ordinance, side lot lines must be substantially at right angles to straight street lines or radial to curved street lines . So as to comply with the provisions of the ordinance, the side lot line separating Lots 8 Viand 9 , Block 1 should be reconfigured to lie radial to the adjacent cul-de-sac. Streets. The proposed street layout has to a large extent been dictated by existing development which surrounds the subject property. In this regard, the street configuration is considered generally acceptable. While it is acknowledged that the subdivision' s street configuration is influenced by the site' s wetland locations, - interior street access should be provided to Lots 1 and 2 , Block 1 if at all possible. All proposed streets are shown to provide appropriate right-of-way widths and cul-de-sac lengths. The City Engineer should provide comment in regard to specific right-of-way dedication requirements associated with ware Road and the need for any financial security for the eventual upgrading of ware Road. While the subdivision' s east/west street shall exist as simply an extension of Coyote Trail, the subdivision' s cul-de-sac has not been specifically named. Such cul-de-sac should be named as part of the forthcoming final plat submission. Such street name shall be subject to City approval . Wetlands- As shown on Exhibit E, the subject site contains two wetlands/drainageways . Some mitigation of the wetland/drainageway will likely be necessary to accommodate the proposed extension of '_"':oyote Trail . As a condition of preliminary plat approval, the submitted wetland mitigation plan (incorporated in grading and 4
