3. The preliminary plat shall plat the balance of the site into lots consistent with Sheet 5, Ghost Plat. This is similar to the preliminary plat for Belland Farms (Lots 1-3) and will save time and the expensive of preliminary platting one (1) lot at a time. The final plat may then show the lots as an outlot until they are ready to be developed. Streets and Alleys Rosemary Way is a public street aligning with Rosemary Way in the City of Hugo and extends from 24th Avenue west across the north lot lines of Lots 1-2, Block 1, Belland Farm. It is 32 ft wide paved back to back within 60 66ft of street right-of-way. With the second addition, the public street will extend to the west lot line where it will eventually connect with the private street in Main Street Shoppes to the west. Both developers and the City have reviewed conceptual street alignments. Staff notes Rosemary Way will eventually extend west and connect to Otter Lake Road to serve future development in both Belland Farms and Main Street Shoppes. This connection will create an important "backage road" from the City of Hugo and parallel to CSAH 14/Main Street to support transportation in the area. CSAH 14/Main Street is an A -Minor Connector road and has limited access points throughout the corridor. Southbound 24th Avenue access onto CSAH 14/Main Street is right in/right out. A shared driveway from Rosemary Way serving Lot 1 and future Lot 2 is proposed. This driveway aligns with the eye clinic driveway to the south. Maintenance of the shared driveway is private. Staff Comments: 1. An additional 7ft of street right-of-way along 24th Avenue is required for future turn lanes. 2. A shared driveway agreement and exhibit shall be drafted by the developer. a. The agreement shall detail private maintenance responsibilities of the driveway, landscaped parking lot median, island landscaping, lighting etc. 3. A 5ft wide sidewalk shall be installed along both the north and south side of Rosemary Way and terminate at the end of the street construction. Easements Standard drainage and utility easements at least 10 feet wide have been provided over the lots lines. An oversized 20 ft wide drainage & utility easement is provided along the east lot line of Lot 1 for drainage. Public Land Dedication The City will collect a cash fee of $3,956.40 in lieu of land dedication for commercial development for final platted Lot 1, Belland Farms Second Addition.
