City of Lake Elmo • 3800 Laverne Ave N., Lake Elmo, MN 55042 • 651-747-3911 a. Although townhomes are assumed to be double fronted in the NE corner of the development, this comment will remain until sidewalks or elevations are provided to substantiate design. 6. Park B should be considered private open space with amenities to serve apartment residents. City will not accept two noncontiguous parks. 7. As previously communicated, no units can be split by the boundary separating MDR and HDR. Met council staff were willing to overlook the minor discrepancy on future land use boundary because units were not impacted, and ROW was located in the hatched area. A Comp Plan Amendment could be required for the westernmost attached townhome to be located in that area. City staff would need to confirm with Met Council. 8. Townhomes along Lilac Avenue are added and should be designed consistent with LEC 105.12.740(g). City Code requires these units to be rear loaded. The units should all front on a public trail. 9. Two access points for 3-story apartment unit parking areas on Lilac Ave should be consolidated into just one access on either side of the street. Revised Engineering Department Comments (see attached annotated Infrastructure plan) 1. We still need Lilac Avenue to connect to the southern adjacent parcel as a City standard street with 66-ft. R/W. A single commercial driveway access will be allowed to each Apartment building (each direction), but not 2 access points as shown. 2. We still need a 5th Street EB RTL to Limerick Parkway. Additional R/W will be needed. 3. Lots 14 and 15 still require a Temp cul-de-sac until the property to the north develops, or Lots 14 and 15 must wait to be platted. 4. The 5th Street connection to Manning Avenue requires an off-site solution for providing access to the adjacent parcel (all meeting City design standards and access spacing guidelines). 5. FYI. The Townhouse area and the Townhomes along Lilac Avenue will result in most of the public street having driveway frontage. Therefore, any preliminary plat application must contain a R/W corridor PLAN showing allowable parking spaces along the public street together with hydrant locations, snow storage locations, mailbox locations, allowable parking spaces, and boulevard tree locations. Additional Fire Department Comments 1. All attached townhomes three units and greater will require a fire sprinkler system. 2. Road naming convention needs review by Planning and Fire. 3. Apartment Buildings: Locations of all EV charging stations or Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment shall be reviewed and installed in approved locations. All electric vehicle supply equipment installed in the apartment building underground parking area may require additional fire suppression considerations and restrictions on installation locations. An electric vehicle supply equipment plan is required. This plan shall be reviewed by the fire department, building contractor, building owner, and building insura nce provider.
