• • • Ravens Hollow Review Page 2 June 30, 2003 City of Lino Lakes, Minnesota watermain pressures should also be reviewed to ascertain whether resulting dead -end lines will have adequate pressures and flow rates for domestic use as well as fire protection. 3. On all plans provided, the streets shown must be provided with names /identifications. Detailed review comments are difficult to reference without such identification. 4. The proposed development shows a connection to Ware Road at the southeast corner of the site. As mentioned in the previous review, the City was considering the possibility of this connection being temporary, pending further review of future development to the south of this property. Unless the City directs otherwise, it is recommended that the proposed connecting street at Ware Road remain in place. 5. The plan provides for the construction of the start of a frontage road alongside CSAH 49 at the southwest corner of the property. The proposed development plans will require further review, input, and approval of Anoka County. 6. A 70 foot wide U.P.A. Easement exists across the northern portion of the property. The size of the proposed lots bordering this easement should be reviewed further to verify that City requirements (including minimum lot depths) are met. In addition, a trail easement (north 30) feet should also be provided on the final plat if a trail easement has not already been dedicated. 7. The numbering of the utility and grading sheets needs clarification and revision. Of these plans, a total of three (3) sheets have been provided. The utility plan is identified as Sheet 1 of 3, the grading plan as Sheet 1 of 2, and the detail plan as Sheet 2 of 2. 8. A Wetland Delineation Report, prepared by Earth Science Associates, Inc., and dated November 2002, was previously provided as part of the earlier (March 26, 2003) submittal. This Report, along with the proposed Wetland Replacement Plan (including any subsequent revisions), shall be subject to review and approval of the City, and the approval of the Rice Creek Watershed District. 9. As part of the March 26, 2003 submittal, a Geotechnical Assessment (Geotechnical Engineering, Inc., February 19, 2003) was also provided. Based upon the results and opinion of the geotechnical engineer, the site does have some limitations with regard to suitability for construction, primarily in areas where the topsoil and fill are much deeper. In such areas where houses or infrastructure such as roads and utilities are proposed, unsuitable material would need to be removed and replaced and compacted accordingly. Groundwater levels naturally can fluctuate. Careful consideration of groundwater levels should be considered when proposing the type of housing unit to be constructed, such as a walk -out or full basement. 10. Any on -site wells not to be used in the future shall be formally abandoned in accordance with the laws of the State of Minnesota.
