Streets and Alleys A private road from Otter Lake Road extends west across the north boundary of Lot 1, Block 1. The private road is proposed within Outlot D. Outlot D shall be incorporated into Outlot A and a private road easement agreement or Operating, Easements and Maintenance Agreement (OEM) recorded over it. This will avoid any issues with future ownership and maintenance responsibilities of the private road. The developer is proposing to record an OEM after ownership of the outlots is transferred; however, staff has concerns regarding future ownership of the outlot. No public street improvements are required except for a southbound right turn lane from Otter Lake Road onto CSAH 14 (Main Street). The private road is proposed at 28ft wide back to back. To be consistent with Main Street Shoppes, it shall be revised to 30ft. An additional 60 ft of road right-of-way is being dedicated along Otter Lake Road except for a 35 ft wide strip that was acquired by the City in 2013 for the purpose of constructing Otter Lake Road. Similar to Main Street Shoppes, a Declaration of Access Control will be required. The Declaration shall state the private access road to the development will have full access to Otter Lake Road upon completion, but such full access must be reduced to right -in, right - out access upon further extension of the Otter Lake Road to the north. Staff notes the private road shall extend north to serve future development and eventually connect to the future full access at Otter Lake Road. The stormwater pond located at the west end of the private road would require the future road extension to impact a wider section of wetland. The developer may want to consider a redesign of the pond to allow for future private road extension with less wetland impacts. Easements Standard drainage and utility easements at least 10 feet wide have been provided on Lot 1, Block 1 except for the west lot line. An easement shall be provided there. A drainage and utility easement is required over the private road and the stormwater pond facilities. Previously recorded highway easements and utility easements along CSAH 14 (Main Street) exist on site. Public Land Dedication The City will collect a cash fee of $3,603 minus trail construction credits in lieu of land dedication for commercial development for Lot 1, Block 1, Otter Crossing. A trail shall
