Ms. Katie Larsen 02/05/2025 Page 3 Burque Estates Concept Plan Submittal - Engineering Review diameter main along with 4-inch Schedule 40 PVC service pipe to each lot. Additional sanitary sewer stubs will be extended to the south. •Transportation A general street layout has been proposed with the Concept Plan. The City of Lino Lakes’ Comprehensive Plan requires neighborhood street connections. The Burque property is adjacent to I-35E which is a Principal Arterial, 20th Avenue (CSAH 54) which is A-Minor Arterial Reliever, Birch Street (CSAH 34) is a Major Collector road, Cypress Street and Chestnut Street are local roads. The applicant is showing connections with the right of way to Chestnut Street in the northeast portion of the development and 20th Avenue (CSAH 54) in the southwest portion. Cypress Street is planned to be connected to Birch Street as outlined in the City’s Comprehensive Plan. A traffic study will be required for the site. Trails and sidewalks A trail will be required along the east side of Chestnut Street from the north and then crossing Chestnut and following the wetlands around the back of Block 1. Areas where the trail will be near the wetlands will require an engineered (2’) sand subgrade section. Additional sidewalks will be required along the connector roads or as directed by the City Planner. Comments 1.The traffic study shall include the intersections of Red Oak and 20th Avenue, 21st Avenue and Cedar Street, Birch Street and 20th Avenue and 20th 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 traffic study shall meet the requirements outlined in City ordinances. The ten- year forecast review should be 2040 and include a future connection of Birch Street to Cypress Street. 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.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. 5.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. 6.Provide traffic calming (narrowed lanes, bump outs, etc.) at the midblock trail crossing on Chestnut Street •Wetlands and Environment
