Sketch Plan Submittal January 29, 2024 Limerick Village Page 3 of 4 Park area is currently proposed in the eastern portion of the site - adjacent to the high-density product as requested by the City of Lake Elmo. The park is approximately 2.4 acres and includes off-street parking lot for 28 vehicles. The park abuts public right-of-way. It should be noted that a private club house is currently proposed as part of the 20-unit town home development. UTILITIES The area is served with 12” watermain and a 24” sanitary sewer in Hudson Boulevard. Each stub is located within right-of-way and located approximately a quarter mile south of the southwest corner of the project site. It is the applicants understanding that each utility has capacity to serve the site and subject to routing to the site. It is the applicant’s intent to work with the abutting landowners to the south and west to determine an extension of the two utilities to the site and as part of the preliminary plat submittal. The plan proposes to extend watermain through the property to the west and provide a looped watermain system. STORMWATER MANAGEMENT The property currently provides approximately 28,000 cubic feet of flood storage for the 100-year rainfall event, which floods to an elevation of 895.1 per VBWD hydraulic modeling. An additional 95,000 cubic feet of flood storage is provided on the property to the south at that same elevation. The sketch plan proposes to provide a local/regional stormwater management pond/infiltration basin of approximately 8.8 acres near the center of the site. It is currently proposed that the basin be outlet to the east under Manning Avenue to a ditch an approximate elevation of 890 which will provide for a basin normal water level of approximately 892 and an infiltration bench of approximately 890.7, which will provide approximately 40,400 cubic feet of flood storage or approximately 12,400 cubic feet of excess flood storage. IRRIGATION – REUSE SYSTEM The project proposes to provide an underground irrigation / stormwater reuse system for the rental units (apartments and 20-unit townhomes) greenspace and the new Park. The system will be fed by stormwater from the regional storm pond by an underground piping system. This stormwater reuse will assist in the overall stormwater treatment for the site. ARCHITECTURE Included in the sketch plan submittal package are building elevations for the single-family homes proposed on the western portion of the site. These new homes, to be built by David Weekley Homes, LLC, have been successfully built and marketed in several areas of the country, including most recently in the Master Planned Community of Amber Fields at UMORE Park in Rosemount, Minnesota. These homes provide a terrific alternative to standard Townhome living, with better values
