Planning & Zoning Board September 11, 1996 concerns, we the undersigned request that the City of Lino Lakes and the developer, Richard Carlson, give some consideration and commitments on the following matters: 1) We are requesting that Richard S. Carlson fulfill his commitment to resolve the drainage problems on the north side of the walking trail in Park Grove adjoining the new development. Specifically, we are requesting that a French drainage system be built in the swale from Lot 3 through Lot 7 of Block 5, and across the path to Lot 1 of Block 6, and then into the retention pond in Park Grove, Block 6. It is further requested that any and all construction damage be repaired and the lots be returned to their original condition following the building of this drainage system. 2) That the City establish an architectural review process to assure an independent review of the home plans submitted to and approved by Carlson & Associates in Millers South Glen, Park Grove and PineRidge. This review would insure conformance with the covenants and aesthetic preservation of the developments. 3) That the City commit to insuring that all drainage from the home now being built on the PineRidge Ill, Lot 1, be confined to the south side of the walking trail. That the City assume responsibility for and commit to resolve any and all future issues pertaining to any drainage problems resulting from this lot; including drainage onto the walking path and /or the properties located north of the walking path. 4) That the current plan for a retention pond adjoining the walking trail be changed. Specifically, we are requesting that this pond be elevated to above the water table and sodded to provide for a grassy /pasture swale with water flowing southward to the newly stagnant water and provide a more aesthetically pleasing view for the entire subdivision. Additionally, we believe that any future owner would prefer a grass swale as opposed to wet marshy land in their back yard, which will produce mosquitos and rodents. 5) We need a clear understanding of where the water runoff and retention plans for the east side of Millers South Glen (Block 3) and assurances built into the covenants that the water runoff /retention will not affect Park Grove's current water situation. 6) That the current gradation and elevation of Millers South Glen [specifically the cul -de -sac] be lowered to match the current street elevations of Park Grove / PineRidge. Furthermore, once approved any changes or deviations to these elevations be reviewed at a public hearing with proper notice given to adjoining residents. 10 • • •
