1 1 COUNCIL MEETING FEBRUARY 13, 1995 preliminary utility planning review. Municipal Water System. The preliminary utility review indicated that a well with a tank would provide service to the first two (2) phases of the subdivision. The City would have to consider installation of some type of storage to provide fire flow for further phases. The preliminary report for the well was completed in January, 1995. Its findings and cost estimate for the well and pump house are consistent with the estimates presented by staff last fall. The City Council received this report at an earlier meeting but did not set a public hearing pending action on this proposed plat. Financing. The estimated trunk sanitary sewer and watermain assessments generated by the proposed subdivision are adequate to offset the cost of the trunk improvements required for serving the subdivision. The trunk improvements include over sizing the watermain, installation of a lift station and installation of the well to serve the area and future phases. The additional engineering information received supports the previous recommendation to approve the rezone and preliminary plat. Mr. Powell presented a map of Area /3 development reviewed last fall and recapped the information provided at that meeting. In the preliminary utility planning report, the I35E interchange was split into three (3) development areas. The proposed subdivision falls in development Area /3. The previous report indicated that there is an existing forcemain on Cedar Street which connects the Centerville lift station with the Forest Lake Interceptor. There is capacity in the forcemain as indicated in the Lino Lakes Comprehensive Plan for connections for the proposed subdivision. The further extension of sanitary sewer would involve construction of a lift station and gravity flow to the lift station with forcemain connection to Cedar Street. The watermain would consist of a well (a feasibility report for the well has already been prepared) located somewhere near the north edge of the subdivision. A 12 inch trunk watermain would be extended through the subdivision for future extension to the south and would be looped for circulation purposes within the first two (2) phases. The proposed subdivision is consistent with the watermain considerations from the preliminary report. The proposed subdivision shows a north/south roadway generally passing through the middle of the proposed subdivision. The street would continue south with the development of future phases. In the interim, staff recommended looping the street or temporary cul-de-sacs. There is good circulation in this area PAGE 9
