MEMORANDUM
TO: City Manager t
FROM: Director of Public Works
DATE: August 12, 1
SUBJECT: ACORN GREENHOUSE PROPERTY
This item was tabled so the developer could investigate alternative
sanitary sewer systems and information could be gathered at the
Council's request.
The developer discussed the possibility of a gravity system dis-
charging north on McKnight Road with the staff. This alternative
seemed reasonable at first glance. Upon further investigation a
capacity limitation on Larpenteur Avenue was identified in the old
1972 comprehensive sewer plan. The area planned to discharge through
this part of the system would have completely filled the pipe when
fully developed.
The new Comprehensive Land Use Plan presently being reviewed for
approval recommends lowering the density for the area under con-
sideration. If the Comprehensive Plan is adopted as proposed, the
addition of the Acorn Greenhouse's flow to the sewer system will
not create a capacity deficiency.
Approval of the PUD and preliminary plat is recommended with the
following conditions:
1. Designate the common land around the quads as outlot B. The
quad association's by -laws and declaration must be approved
by the City Attorney to assure maintenance of the property.
2. Designate the stub street south of Montana Avenue as Currie
Street.
3. The 10 foot utility easements adjacent to the public rights -
of -way serve no purpose and should be omitted.
4. An additional 16.5 feet of right -of -way for McKnight Road
should be provided in addition to that shown on the plat.
5. A blanket public easement over Outlot B should be provided
for utility and drainage installation and maintenance.
6. Approval of the final grading, drainage and utility plans
by the Director of Public Works.
7. Provision of a signed developer's agreement within one year
for the construction of proposed public improvements which
shall include a gravity sanitary sewer serving the development.
y
8. The first building permit must be applied for within two
years.
9. Acquisition of all off -site easements required for installation
of utilities shall be the sole responsibility of the developer.
