Per MnOot's report, access off of Highway 12 has <br />been denied. Applicant's only access to site will be via <br />Willow Drive. The City Engineer has reviewed the proposed <br />curb cut for Immediate access to garden center. Adequate <br />separation is maintained from the intersection of U.S. <br />Highway 12 at approximately 360' from the center line of <br />Highway 12 to the center line of the private drive curb cut. <br />Applicant has asked to delay installation of future access <br />road. City, in preliminary discussions, has agreed to allow <br />applicant temporary use of private access drives to develop <br />the commercial garden center. The future east/west road has <br />been ter^ively set aside for further consideration. Denial <br />of access off of Highway 12 may necessitate the need to <br />construct a frontage road. In light of the upcoming safety <br />improvements for Highway 12 and the availability of State <br />funds to assist in the construction, it may be appropriate <br />to establish a construction date somehow tied in with future <br />safety improvements for Highway 12. <br />Roadways, private drives within garden center must be at a <br />minimum 30* adjacent to building providing enough room for <br />driving and fire lane at the 30* width. Where ever <br />applicant has designated a 25* width, a 30' width must be <br />maintained. <br />Proposed Ose of Lot 2. This area has been desiciied as a <br />tree-growing area and sales area. The City must have more <br />information as to the use of this property. Uncontrolled <br />signage cannot be allowed. Applicant should explain how the <br />property will be used as part of the garden center use.
