ACTION ITEMS <br />Otter Crossing South 2nd Addition Preliminary Plat <br /> <br />The applicant, Tyme Properties, LLC is proposing a Preliminary Plat for Outlot B of Otter Crossing <br />South. Outlot B will be subdivided into two commercial lots as part of Otter Crossing South 2nd <br />Addition. <br /> <br />The site was platted as part of the Otter Crossing South development. The parcel was platted as <br />Outlot B, located on the SE corner of I-35 and Main Street. The site is 2.23 acres of existing <br />agricultural property with a fairly flat terrain towards the center. The parcel will be split into two <br />commercial lots. <br />Tom Hoffman, Environmental Coordinator for the City of Lino Lakes, presented and was <br />available for questions. <br />Mr. Parsons asked for more details regarding the underground storm sewer line that goes into <br />the development. <br />th <br />Mr. Hoffman noted that they have a trunk storm sewer on 70 Street and will go into that storm <br />sewer and then be conveyed to the regional stormwater pond. He goes on to say that it is not <br />like an underground storage or infiltration like other ones It will just go into the <br />trunk storm sewer and then go into the pond. <br />Mr. Parsons asked where the sumps would be and what they would include. <br />Mr. Hoffman said that the sumps are required to be the last structure prior to discharging into <br />th <br />our system, so most likely it would be at the edge of 70 Street at the connection where the <br />water is getting the pre-treatment and settlement before it enters our system. Mr. Hoffman also <br />noted that that they like to keep those either in a road or on an impervious so that the City or <br />developer has easy access. In this case, the storm sewer is private up to that point so they are <br />able to get in and vacuum so they can get that sediment out. <br /> Mr. Parsons asked if it was common practice to have a guard to catch that sediment. <br />Mr. Hoffman responded that some of the structures do have a SAFL Baffle that they put inside <br />of the structure and those tend to do better for trash, debris, and sediment. For the storm <br />sewer itself, the catch basins will have the standard grates to catch larger material. The pond <br />guard does have a trash guard on the outlet pipe. <br /> Mr. Parsons asked who maintains those guards. <br />Mr. Hoffman said that the ones in the parking lot would be the storm sewer for the <br />development and would be private. The pond outlet would be maintained by the City. <br />APPROVED MINUTES <br /> <br /> <br />
