The Planning <br />Commission and City Council would have to support a variance for lot area for the southern lot. <br /> <br />Engineer Comments <br />City Engineer: <br />• City sewer and Water would be available however there are not an existing stubs <br />so applicants would have to tap into the mains. Due to their locations this <br />would require excavating into the county road which would require a county <br />permit in addition to the City utility permits. <br />• Per the wetland mapper most of the area is a class one preserve <br />wetland. Buildable land may be very limited <br /> <br />Hennepin County Provide comments in 2020 regarding the development of 2474 and 2480 <br />Carmen Street. They provided the following comments for consideration. <br />• We recommend the applicant to pursue an access easement from the east <br />(commercial parcel). With the intense traffic off of Shoreline Dr the goal would be <br />avoid direct access when we can. If an easement proves not to be a viable option, <br />will need to combine two sites into one shared access. <br />• Location of access would be based on adequate sight distance and maintaining a <br />positive offset for opposing left turns. Driveway needs to have level landing to allow <br />for optimal sight distance <br />• No retaining walls along Shoreline Dr would be allowed, additionally grading may be <br />required.
