Medtronic Review October 10, 2005 Page 9 Municipal Coordination OPUS and Medtronic will be presenting their site plans and preliminary plat to the City of Blaine on October 11 and October 20. Blaine will need to approve any redesign of Coral Sea Street and 82 Lane NE as they are Blaine streets. Blaine has been supportive of the Medtronic development plans and improvements to County Road J and the bridge over 35W. Future Transportation Issues The City authorized the preparation of an Alternative Urban Areawide Review (AUAR) of the Bridges site to explore the maximum development potential of the project area. The AUAR includes a mitigation plan based on a full build-out of 1,500,000 square feet of office space which identified the existing and future transportation deficiencies. The transportation improvement plan is being prepared and the improvements will be completed at the same time or before Phase 1 completion. An update to the transportation mitigation plan will be necessary before construction of subsequent phases can be undertaken. Preliminary Plat Issues The Medtronic CRM preliminary plat, date stamped October 5, 2005, was prepared by E. G. RUD & Sons, Inc. The plat proposes six distinct lots in one block. The lot layout is summarized in the table below. Copies of the Medtronic CRM preliminary plat have been provided to the City’s public works department, the City Attorney and Ramsey County.
