Birch Street Commercial Review Page 2 July 24, 2003 <br />City of Lino Lakes, Minnesota <br />• <br />• <br />• <br />An initial review of the Preliminary Plat was conducted by the Anoka County Highway Department <br />in a letter dated November 20, 2002, (Jane Pemble, Traffic Engineer). The following key points were <br />made in their initial review: <br />• As a result of pending improvements to the intersection of CSAH 49 and CSAR 10, <br />additional right-of-way will be needed by the County along the west and north sides of the <br />proposed development. However, because an actual design had not yet been developed, the <br />extent of right-of-way needed at the time was not known. In addition, trail easements along <br />the County roadways may be required as well. <br />• An EB right turn lane from CSAH 10 into the site is required. Also, the letter discussed <br />- various intersection and turn lane improvements needed at CSAH 10/Ware Road, CSAH <br />10/CSAH 49, and CSAH 49/Arrowhead. <br />• Intersection sight distance requirements must be maintained in accordance with County <br />requirements. In particular, the Landscaping Plan must allow for proper sight visibilities. <br />The above design issues are currently being reviewed and finalized further by the City of Lino Lakes <br />and Anoka County. Specific designs, scheduling, and cost participations are being jointly discussed <br />and resolved by the City and County. The Developer's Plans will ultimately need to be adjusted <br />accordingly upon final resolution. <br />4. A detail sheet must be provided showing all applicable City of Lino Lakes standard details and <br />standard plates. This would include water, sanitary sewer, erosion control, roadway, storm sewer, and <br />outlet structure details. <br />5. As part of the construction, existing structures and facilities shall be removed in accordance with City <br />requirements, including removal of all underground facilities (foundations, septic systems, etc.), and <br />replaced with suitable fill material. Any existing wells shall also be capped in accordance with State <br />of Minnesota requirements. <br />6. All construction activity shall be performed in accordance with the recommendations provided in the <br />Geotechnical Report (Braun Intertec, July 18, 2002). Generally, the existing soils are fine grained <br />and moisture sensitive, and may be of poor strength or difficult to compact if they become wet during <br />construction. Therefore, some areas (particularly for street construction) may require additional <br />subcutting and replacement with more suitable compactable fill. Recommendations for utility <br />installation (including dewatering) should also be adhered to. In addition, groundwater levels may <br />have an effect upon the holding capacity of the stormwater detention ponds, and should be considered <br />accordingly. <br />
