The plat shows 14 single-family homes, meaning an ADT of 132.02 for the entire development. However, it is our experience with homes of this size that the expected ADT overestimates total trips, and we would expect it to be closer to 115 ADT for the entire development. There is no additional increase expected for this development as a single-family home use tends to stay consistent on traffic demand and no additional density is planned or possible on this site within the next ten years. Additionally, this project will comply with the same findings of the Watermark Traffic Noise assessment that was conducted in March of 2016 to fulfill the requirements of the 1-35E AUAR. This includes meeting the standards for noise levels found in the study for homes that are along CSAH 54 (201h Avenue). The project would need to meet the commercial noise standards (NAC-2) during nighttime hours as allowed by Minnesota Rule 7030.0050. This exemption will be met by following the three following items for all homes built along CSAH 45 (201h Ave) to meet the NAC-2 standards, instead of the residential standards (NAC-1), for nighttime hours: The building is constructed in such a way that the exterior to interior sound level attenuation is at least 30 dB(A); the building has year-round climate control; and The building has no areas or accommodations that are intended for outdoor activities. Finally, the home pads shown on the plan would meet the garage design standards found in the R-2 zone. We understand that garage design and placement is a key issue for development in Lino Lakes and want to ensure early that our lots are buildable given the design requirements. While the specific design will take place following the completion of the plat process, site plan design choices took into account all standards required for minimum garage size, shape, and location found in the R-2 zoning standards. Summary We respectfully request approval of the Zoning Map Amendment and Preliminary Plat to allow the construction of 14 single-family homes at 7590 201h Avenue in Lino Lakes. We asked to be placed on the June 11th Planning Commission and July 14th City Council Meeting as found on the 2025 Application Deadline & Meeting schedule. We are excited to work with you on this project.
