Re., Review of PUD
Eagle Point Business Park
Lake Elmo, Minnesota
Commission No. 9150 -99A
Dear Planning Commission .Members,
I have reviewed the PUD dated May 28, 1999, and offer the following comments:
Streets
Last year the City Council placed the future street though this area on the City's Municipal
State Aid System. This means that the new street will need to meet State Aid Rules for design.
It also means that the City has the option of receiving State Aid funds to build the road_
In the past the City has built roads with State -Aid Funds, and also assessed the cost them_ The
money received from abutting property owners through assessments is there used throughout the
city for other street improvement and repair projects.
The FEUD shows an undivided., four - lane, forty -foot wide street with concrete curb and gutter.
A sixty -foot wide right- of-way is proposed. in order to meet State Aid Rules, a forty- four -foot
wide street would be required. In the past we have required an eighty -foot wide right -of -way
on State Aid Routes.
I would recommend that a more appealing street section would be a divided two -lane road with
a twelve to sixteen -foot wide landscaped median. Left and right turn lanes would be
constructed at the driveways. This street design would require a minimum of a fifteen -foot
wide lane, in each direction, however an eighteen -foot wide lane would be more appropriate.
Trails
The Developer is proposing a five -foot wide trail be constructed through the development. I
would recommend that it be a minimum of eight -feet wide, with a 5% maximum grade.

Surface Water Runoff'
551 292 0083 P.02iO3
The developer Appears to be meeting the City and Watershed District rules for ponding and
runoff. A thorough review of each property will be made as the Business Park develops.
Sanitary Sewer
The sanitary sewer plan appears to be adequate. Utility easements will be required over all
pipes outside of the street right -of -way. Final routes will be determined as development occurs_
Capacity in the W_O.N.E. interceptor retrains an issue. The developer may need to limit the
size and type of business uses until our allocation is increased.
Watermain
In our May 1995 Feasibility Report for this area, we recommended that a 1,000 gpm well, and a
340,000 gallon concrete ground storage reservoir with 2,500 gallon per minute pumps be
constructed to meet fare suppression demand. This development is temporarily connected to
the City of Oakdale water system. The City of Lake Elmo needs to make plans at this time for
its own water system for this area.
I recommend that we discuss with the developer the possibility of acquiring some property
within this development for these facilities. The size requirements for these facilities are fairly
small. The location for the well and tank are flexible. The city would need to drill a test well
before acquiring a well site.
We estimated the cost of a well and tank at $855,000.00 in 1995.
The watermains will need to be twelve -inch to meet fire suppression needs. Eire loops around
each building are also generally necessary.
Traffic. Management
It is anticipated that with growth in both lake Elmo and Oakdale, traffic signals and
intersection improvements will be needed at the intersection of Hudson Road and Inwood
Avenue. 'These improvements will cost the City of Lake Elmo between $50,000.000 and
$75,0000.00, based on typical cost splits.

Financing
651 292 0083 P.03iO3
It is anticipated that the developer will pay for all sewer, watermain, ponding, streets, and trails
within the development_ The City will need to review methods to pay for a new well and
ground storage reservoir, and the traffic signal.
The City may with to Iook at impact fees andlor direct assessments for these items.
