• • • Transportation: There are two accesses proposed, both onto County roads. The location and design of the intersections are under County jurisdiction. No written comments have been received to date. County permits will be required. Parks and Trails: This site is adjacent to the County Park. The Park Board recommended all cash dedication for the development. The Planning and Zoning Board recommended that a small tot — lot site be provided to serve the new plat and development to the east and that upland area be dedicated for a trail. An area 0.26 acre in size has been set aside for park use. If the Council determines that the dedication should be consistent with the Park Board recommendation then staff recommends that the land area identified as park be absorbed into the adjacent lots. The park area alone does not meet the dimensional standards for an R-1 lot. There was historically a trail proposed by the County in the vicinity of this plan. However, that trail has been eliminated from the County's plan and therefore, it was determined that no connection is necessary through this area. Wetlands: There are 8.84 acres of wetlands on the property. Some wetland fill is proposed to accommodate road crossings. The wetland delineation and related plans are subject to the review and permitting of Rice Creek Watershed District (RCWD), which oversees the Wetland Conservation Act (WCA). They have reviewed the application and have issued a permit for the development. Recommendation: The Planning and Zoning Board reviewed the application and they recommend approval subject to the following conditions: 1. Lot 22, Block 1 shall be eliminated or revised to meet the 135' lot depth as measured in the center of the lot. (Lot was revised) 2. An 80'x 80" area shall be provided for the lift station necessary to serve this site. (not done) 3. All comments as listed in the May 1, 2001 memorandum from TKDA shall be addressed to the satisfaction of the City Engineer prior to proceeding to final plat. 4. Park dedication in the area of Lot 30, value to be determined, and dedication of an upland trail corridor around the lake that borders this property subject to approval by the City Staff. (Lot 30 converted, no trail corridor) 5. Appropriate permits shall be acquired from Anoka County for access to the adjacent roadways. 6. The developer shall address all provisions/conditions outlined by Rice Creek Watershed. The Park Board reviewed the application and they recommend that the park dedication be cash fees in lieu of land. The Environmental Board reviewed this request and they recommend approval subject to several comments and conditions as outlined in the attached tracking sheet. Spirit Hills Page 3 of 4
