Brink, P.E. Date: June 30, 2003 Comm. No. 12701 -002 Routing: This proposed Ravens Hollow development was last reviewed in a memorandum dated March 26, 2003. The following review is based upon revised documents received as follows: 1. Preliminary Grading, Drainage, and Erosion Control Plan (Sheet 1 of 2), Ravens Hollow, KG Development, prepared by Glenn Rehbein Companies, dated February 21, 2003, and revised June 16, 2003. 2. Preliminary Plat of Ravens Hollow, prepared by Glenn Rehbein Companies, dated February 13, 2003, and revised June 16, 2003. 3. Preliminary Utility Plan (Sheet 1 of 3) dated February 13, 2003, and revised June 16, 2003. 4. Notes and Details Sheet (Sheet 2 of 2) dated January 20, 2003, and revised June 16, 2003. 5. Drainage Calculations dated June 16, 2003. The proposed Ravens Hollow project development consists of the construction of 56 single - family and 30 townhome lots, located between CSAH 49 and Ware Road at 62nd Street. The size of the property proposed for development is 22 acres, and is generally flat and undulating with combinations of pasture, woodland areas, and wetlands. Some existing single - family residences are located along CSAH 49. An existing bicycle trail also traverses just within and parallel to the north property line, connecting CSAH 49 to the intersection of Ware Road and 62nd Street. The following review comments are presented based on the information provided: Comments - General 1. In the previous review, it was recommended that construction access to and from the site be confined to Ware Road, or from TH 49, to eliminate construction traffic on neighboring residential streets such as Linda Lane. A construction (and permanent) entrance from Ware Road is shown on the revised plan. 2. The proposed plans (including streets, utilities, and drainage) should consider future development of the property to the south as much as possible, as it is likely that future development will connect to at least some of the Ravens Hollow infrastructure. All proposed work shall be in conformance with the comprehensive plans of the City of Lino Lakes. It is required that a temporary cul -de -sac or turnaround feature be provided for the short dead end at the southwest part of the property.
