The access to the development will be from Jamaca and T at the west end of the property. The north —south "T" road will align with Kendrick in the adjacent Kenridge, Addition. There is a 50 ft. easment currently between these two parcels) which would allow for street continuity and also allow for a drainage ditch from the Kenridge Addition. The lots will be one (1) acre and 125 ft. wide. The remaining 12.98 acres would provide multiple housing and act as a buffer from Hwy. 212. The owner is aware no building of this type can be done until sewer could be provided. He does desire to know what the property intent of this 12 acres is before a final plat is approved. He does not feel SPU is a desirable use, due to the prox— imity of the property to the highway. The owner is aware of the water problems to the east, and ponding will need to be provided to maintain the water from the Beutal Addn. Audience: D. Knipe — His back yard is reservoir now and feels more homes will raise the water. Feels Lake Elmo has tried to solve the problem but no agreement can be reach with the DNR. This will cause a hardship to existing homes. Q to Engineer — Do you feel this problem can be solved? A. Yes, A further study by Lake Elmo is needed for the DNR. City has referred this matter to the Valley Branch for a solution, A less costly study by the City, it is felt, could help resolve the problem sooner than by 1ieavxn*._the;43o1ution solely to the Valley Branch. It was suggested to the property owners to petition for the improvement, R. Strege — how will traffic flow be handled if multiple housing is put in? A. 35th Street will continue and tie into proposed Co. 13.
