In particular, we have reviewed the following plans related to this particular request: • Hugo Gardens Amendment to PUD Plan Set submittal dated 4/17/20 by CivilSite Group • Preliminary Stormwater Management Plan dated 4/17/20 by CivilSite Group • Fire Truck Turn Exhibit dated 4/17/20 by CivilSite Group • Preliminary Subsurface Soil Investigation dated 12/7/12 by Interstate Geotechnical Engineering • Geotechnical Engineering Report dated April 10, 2020 by Terracon Consultants, Inc. Based on the review of the above documents, we offer the following comments related to this application: Grading, Street, and Utility Plans 1. Access from the site will come from the extension of Finale Avenue along the Right of Way the City of Hugo had previously acquired. The new alignment of Finale Avenue shifts to the west of its current alignment between Upper 146th Street and 147th Street. Three access locations onto Finale Avenue are proposed. The old portion of Finale Avenue will have the road materials removed and replaced with topsoil. 2. Coordination with utility companies will be required to determine what infrastructure exists along the existing portion of Finale Avenue and to plan according to have it relocated. 3. Finale Avenue will be required to be constructed to a width of 32-ft face of curb to face of curb to accommodate parking on one side of the roadway. 4. An additional access into the site is proposed to come from the entrance drive from Keystone Place. This additional access is helpful considering the alignment of the internal access drive to the southeastern two buildings has some curves that may be challenging for emergency vehicle access. 5. Sidewalk is proposed to be constructed on the west side of Finale avenue, while an 8-ft trail on the east side of Finale Avenue will be constructed as part of a future Lion's Park Improvement project. 6. A trail extending from the Keystone Place trail is proposed to extend through the site and connect to Finale Avenue. \\mspfsv02\DesignDepot\Workshop\City of Hugo\HUG20002 -Hugo Gardens (city file 20-009 and 20-010)\2020-05-07 City Engineers memo.docx
