Additional sanitary sewer stubs will be extended to the north and <br />south. <br /> <br /> <br />Comments: <br />1. Further discussion will be had within Public Works whether the eastern portion of <br />the Olson parcel to the south would be served with gravity by increasing the depth <br />of the 8-inch main at the Peltier Ponds southern townhomes by approximately ten <br />feet or whether it would be served by the lift station <br /> <br /> <br />• Transportation <br /> <br />The Peltier Ponds development will have a primary access from Watermark Way. There <br />will be 8 local public streets (Streets A-H) added and extended as well as several private <br />drives for the townhomes. All public streets are proposed to be 32’ back-to-back with a <br />60’ right of way. Final street naming will need to occur with the final plat. We have <br />requested the additional traffic information below and cannot determine whether the <br />current preliminary plat meets City requirements until reviewing that information. <br /> <br />The traffic study has been reviewed and a full study with comments will be provided. Main <br />comments include: <br />o Figure 1 shows incorrect site plan <br />o In Figures 4, 7, and 8: Trips are missing from the Watermark Way access. <br />Review Watermark Traffic Study and include all trips from the 2025 Build <br />scenario at the Watermark Way and 20th Avenue intersection. Revise analysis <br />based on updated trips. <br />o Add trips for the Peltier ghost plat to 2040 Build scenario <br />o Include existing (actual or estimated) and future projected ADT for 20th Ave, <br />Watermark Way (west and east leg), Rehbein Street (west and east leg), and <br />Peltier Lake Drive. <br />o Adjust access trip distribution, 75%-85% of trips are likely to use Watermark <br />access based on site layout. <br />o Trip calculations do not match ITE rates <br />o Advancing and opposing volumes for right/left-turn lane analysis used incorrect <br />volumes (and a future 2040 analysis should be completed) <br />o 2026 and 2040 No-Build analysis is missing, this should be included to <br />compare with the Build analysis. <br />o Revise analysis based on updated AM/PM peak hour volumes <br />o Revise recommendation section if improvements are needed <br /> <br /> <br />Trails and sidewalks <br /> <br />Trails are proposed extending from Peltier Lake in the southwest corner to the northeast <br />corner of the development near the multifamily units as well as generally along the <br />existing trunk storm sewer line from CSAH 54 to the center of the development. <br /> <br />Sidewalks are shown along one side of almost all of the public streets on the preliminary <br />plat, except for Street A, which has sidewalks on both sides from CSAH 54/20th Avenue <br />west to Street B. With future review of the additional requested traffic information, <br />sidewalk may be required on both sides of a larger portion of Street A. <br />
