Streets and Alleys Haywood Drive is identified as a minor collector road in the Transportation Plan and provides a north -south corridor from CSAH 14 (Main Street) to eventually Pine Street. All proposed street right-of-way widths are 60ft and the street is proposed to be 32ft wide from back of curb to back of curb. Street B is recommended to connect to Andall Street. Arena Acres was platted in 1981 and a 60 ft wide Outlot B was platted for future road connection to the east. This outlot is owned by the City. The extension will connect the neighborhoods and transportation system. This street connection is further supported by the following City Code Sections: § 1001.100 STREETS AND ALLEYS. (3) Streets, continuous. Except for cul-de-sacs, streets shall connect with streets already dedicated in adjoining or adjacent subdivisions or provide for future connections to adjoining unsubdivided tracts, or shall be a reasonable projection of streets in the nearest subdivided tracts. The arrangement of thoroughfares and collector streets shall be considered in their relation to the reasonable circulation of traffic, to topographic conditions, to runoff of storm water, to public convenience and safety, and in their appropriate relation to the proposed uses of the area to be served. This standard transportation practice has been implemented throughout the City such as the Foxbourough connection to Fox Road, Saddle Club connection to Fox Road and the St. Clair Estates connection to Hokah Drive and Sioux Lane. The Andall Street connection is supported by Lino Lakes Public Safety -Police Division and Fire Division in order to provide faster and more direct emergency response to the entire area. The connection is also supported by Public Works to provide better efficiency for street maintenance and snow plowing. Sidewalks are proposed on the east side of Haywood Drive and Street A and the south side of Street C. Sidewalks shall be provided on Street B and Street D. A trail is proposed to connect to the trail in Natures Reserve to the south through the stormwater ponds south of Street D to the eastern edge of the property across Street C and then north between the wetlands and across the gas easement to the northern property line. Before the trail reaches the northern property line, a trail connection is constructed west to Street A between Lot 4 Block 1 and Lot 1 Block 2. The maximum length of a cul-de-sac is 500 ft. Street D cul de sac is 620 ft. The street will be 32 ft wide (vs 30 ft wide) and a sidewalk shall be installed. Public safety is in approval with the cul de sac length. H.,
