ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION <br />MINUTES FOR APRIL 19,1999 <br />(#2479 Peter Andrea Company, continued) <br />Gronberg noted that there is 33 feet of right-of-way along Orchard Park Road. <br />Weinberger stated the right-of-way had previously been dedicated from properties and City Staff is <br />looking for right-of-way dedication for this subdivision to insure future road connections. <br />Schroeder inquired what the Applicant has platted for the roadways. <br />Weinberger stated there is a 33 foot wide corridor along some of the properties, with a 50 foot <br />right-of-way is needed in this area. Weinberger commented that it would be fair to both developers <br />to have 25 feet of right-of-way on either side of the platted road. Weinberger noted that no <br />development is being planned at this time to the land to the west. <br />Hawn inquired whether there were any public comments regarding this application. <br />Jim Whelan, 14425 - 38th Avenue, Plymouth, stated he also owns property near this subdivision, <br />and expressed concerns that the proposed corridor for Highway 12 will landlock his property. <br />Whelan commented he is interested in access off Stubbs Bay Road or somewhere else if possible. <br />Whelan stated access from the south is not possible due to the low land located there. Waylon <br />commented he has written a letter to MnDot regarding his access. <br />Kevin Holmes, 585 Stubbs Bay, commented that he was glad to see the Planning Commission make <br />provisions for wetlands and roads in new developments, but would like to see some information <br />regarding the easements. Holmes stated in his view Outlet B will not be buiidable due to the <br />Highway 12 corridor. <br />Hawn remarked that it is difficult to answer most of these questions at this time due to the lack of <br />infoonation that has been provided by the developer. Hawn stated these issues will have to be <br />addressed at a future Planning Commission meeting and that the residents will be notified of that <br />headng. <br />Donna Cause, 480 Stubbs Bay Road North, expressed concerns regarding driveway access and <br />the need to preserve some trees in that area which act as a .vindbreak. Cause commented she <br />wouid also like to see the drainage problems adequately addressed for this area. <br />Weinberger stated the developer will need to submit a drainage and grading plan that is <br />acceptable to City Staff, which will be reviewed by the Planning Commission at the time the <br />preliminary plat is approved. <br />Gronberg stated they would be willinr to work with the neighbors regarding some of these issues. <br />Gronberg noted that some of the work regarding this development has been delayed due to the <br />weather. <br />Hawn inquired whether the representative for the Applicant would be agreeable to tabling this <br />application in accordance with Staffs recommendation. <br />Gronberg indicated he would agree to tabling this item, but would like some direction on how the <br />roads should be platted. <br />Lindquist stated in his view the property on the northern part will need a right-of-way or easement <br />to access that property from the cul-de-sac. <br />Page 9
