• Oakwood View Page 4 January 20, 2005 City of Lino Lakes, Minnesota 5. It is proposed to extend sanitary sewer and water south from existing facilities at the current termination point at Oakwood Lane. At this location, existing sanitary sewer and water are shown extending south along the west property line to the existing church building. It is proposed to abandon these lines and replace them with lines extending south down the new Oakwood Lane street extension, and then continuing those lines southwesterly and southerly back to the church facility. The new lines would then be extended southeasterly to serve both the existing church and new enabling facility. The utility plan does provide a note for abandoning the existing water and sewer mains no longer needed. However, it does appear that the existing lines may be in locations where new houses or structures will be constructed; particularly at Lots 7, 8, 9 and 10. It is therefore recommended that the existing lines instead be removed rather than abandoned at these locations. Other Comments 1. A final landscaping plan shall eventually be submitted. Sight corner visibilities shall be maintained per City requirements as applicable. The applicant has stated that a landscape plan will be provided. 2. Approval of the plat, including access from County Road J will be subject to the review and approval of Anoka County. 3. The existing church and proposed enabling facility will utilize the same driveway access. A cross access agreement or appropriate legal covenant is recommended. 4. 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. 5. Future needs may require the eventual extension of sanitary sewer and water to County Road J. The drainage and utility easements on Lots 8 and 9 should therefore be adjusted in the Final Plat to accommodate any future extension. This can be accomplished by either continuing the 30 foot easement southerly along the west side of the property (Lot 8) to County Road J, or by providing a 30 foot easement between Lots 8 and 9 (down the shared driveway). 6. Long term maintenance responsibilities for the development area, including rain garden and detention areas must be addressed appropriately in an agreement between the Developer and the City. In particular, the ECS Irrigation/Drainage System is a new and unique system within the City, and must be specifically addressed.
