9 Comment Response Does school traffic not cause issues for Scenario 1? School traffic does cause delays under Scenario 1 conditions. These delays are worse under Scenario 2 conditions because the development is more concentrated on the west side of the site under Scenario 2 and Sunset Avenue sees higher traffic levels as a result. 7.4 Scenario 2 Conditions Capacity Analysis Summary Scenario 2? Corrected to say Scenario 2. 3. City of Blaine Location of commercial land use is proposed to abut the Lino Lakes/Blaine city boundary. The City of Blaine has identified low-density residential land use for the parcel abutting Lino Lakes. If commercial land use is proposed, the city of Blaine would encourage certain zoning requirements for the commercial development to address compatibility between single family and commercial land uses. Thank you for your review and comment noted. The City will require future developers to include tools such as buffering and/or screening between new developments and adjacent, less dense areas in their development plans The AUAR identifies proposed bike and pedestrian trails from Sunset Avenue to Lexington Avenue, which is in Blaine. While we understand the need for such trails, this would require capital planning by the city as a cost-share for installation of the trails is likely required from Anoka County. Comment noted. The roundabout at Sunset and Main Street is designed to service parcels on the north side of Main Street for both Blaine and Lino Lakes. It should be noted that the city of Blaine discourages cross- jurisdictional road connections of city streets. Design of future roads from the roundabout should be discussed with the City of Blaine to encourage traffic and access compatibility between development in each city. Comment noted. Page 576 of 679
