Oakwood View Page 4 February 26, 2004 City of Lino Lakes, Minnesota Other Comments 1. A final landscaping plan shall eventually be submitted. Sight corner visibilities shall be maintained per City requirements as applicable. 2. Any existing well and septic locations on both the subject property and adjoining properties shall be confirmed to assure compliance with the Minnesota Department Health. This shall mean that any existing facilities on the subject property shall be removed or capped in accordance with regulations, and that sewer separation distances from any remaining facilities in close proximity shall be attained. The separation distance shall be provided in accordance with the requirements of the Minnesota Department of Health. 3 The plan provides notes regarding seeding, mulching and turf establishment for disturbed areas. However, the City of Lino Lakes has a specific seed specification for ponding areas and a note referring to City of Lino Lakes seeding specifications shall also be provided on the plan. 4. Approval of the plat, including access from County Road J will be subject to the review and approval of Anoka County. 5. A geotechnical report has not been provided. Therefore, the existing soils and groundwater levels are not known. All building pad foundations, streets, and utilities shall be constructed on approved materials as required by the City of Lino Lakes, and groundwater levels shall be known in order to ascertain building elevation requirements (low floors) with regards to ground and surface water elevations. Many of the proposed units are walk outs adjacent to wetlands, and the high water elevations of the wetlands are not shown on the plan. Building elevations will therefore be subject to further review. 6. The wetland delineation report must be approved by the Ric' e Creek Watershed District. 7. Standard drainage and utility easements along all property lines (5 feet and 10 feet) shall be provided in addition to other easements required for utility lines, stormwater detention areas, wetlands, etc. 8. The existing church and proposed enabling facility will utilize the same driveway access. A cross access agreement or appropriate legal covenant is recommended. The driveway to the enabling facility appears to be less than 12 feet wide and is pressed tightly between the property line and Pond 5, including a curve which may at times be blind. The lack of room for snow storage and tight confines for vehicles of opposing directions may be of concern, especially for larger or special vehicles. It is recommended that this situation be reviewed further and improved. 9. A tree inventory plan has been prepared. It is suggested that existing trees be preserved as much as possible and practical.
