Marshan Lake Townhomes Review Page 2 June 4, 2004 City of Lino Lakes, Minnesota 2. It is not expected that any construction related permits from Anoka County will be required. However, any side grading into the Anoka County right of way would require a permit. Because the property is adjacent to the County Roadway, the Preliminary and Final plats will require the review of the County. An additional dedication of 15 feet to the County right of way is shown as required by Anoka County. The applicant shall also be aware of intersection sight distance requirements, and that no trees or vegetation may be planted within the County right of way, or at locations that will restrict corner visibility sight lines. This would also include signs, berming, or other surface features. The final Landscaping Plan shall therefore be subject to further review and approval of the City and County as needed. 3. For drainage of the site, the Plan utilizes an existing storm sewer and ponding system to the east of the property. Drainage calculations were previously submitted for the December 5 review. Stormwater pond calculations dated May 6, 2004 have also been provided and reviewed. This site was previously reviewed by the Rice Creek Watershed district as part of a much larger developed area that includes the existing property to the east. The proposed site development (high density residential) is consistent with the property use considered in the previous original drainage design for the larger area. The proposed new construction therefore appears to fit and conform with the original submittal. However, approval and/or acknowledgement from the Rice Creek Watershed District will be needed to confirm compliance with the original permit. 4. Because the site area exceeds one acre, the development also falls under the new rules requiring an NPDES permit. The applicant shall be responsible for obtaining this permit. This also includes the submittal of a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) to the City in accordance with NPDES requirements. Silt fence and erosion control details are provided on the plans and shall be installed accordingly. 5. Per the Survey and Existing Conditions Plan, several buildings including houses, barns, sheds, and a garage all exist on the site. Demolition, removal, and grading of the site will therefore be required. The applicant will be responsible for the complete removal of all buildings, foundations, underground and above ground items, capping of any existing utility connections and wells, and removal of any underground or septic systems that may exist. All debris and unsuitable material must be removed from the site. Any material imported to the site must be approved by the City Engineer. 6. Geotechnical information has been provided. The borings and associated report cover a larger area that extends beyond this proposed development. However, the same general comments apply and can be summarized as follows: Additional excavation of fine alluvial silts and replacement with compactable granular material may be required for construction of the buildings and private drives. Groundwater levels may also necessitate dewatering for the utility installations. Any imported topsoil, fill material, or granular materials for roadway and building foundation (material and source) must be approved by the City Engineer.
