Zoning File #1330 October 14, 1988 Page 2 of 3 Staff has revised its recommendation regarding access driveway to Lots 3 and 4. Staff recommends approval of separate driveways and separate creek crossings for each of Lots 3 and 4 per the Watershed District approval. In discussions with the applicant, there is no plan to do any unusual site grading nor to create any berms along Townline Road. The applicant does wish to request approval for the center island within the entry area of this private road, and notes that it would be acceptable for the City to stipulate if the City ever takes over maintenance of this road, the center island could be removed. Staff has arced that applicant discuss the maintenance ramifications of this center island with the Public Works Director. Three road name options have been presented by the applicant. Staff would note that in the 1985 Hudson Map Directory, street names Painter Road, Painter Drive and Painter Circle are already used, and refer to streets less than 3 miles from the Fullerton property, in Minnetrista. Since both locations are served by Maple Plain Fire Department, the use of Painter in the new road name is not advisable. Applicant should submit additional choices. Applicant has been advised that the City will definitely require the 28' paved .road, urban sec ion, per the City Engineer's recommendation. In addition, ditch grading along Townline Road, as noted by the City Engineer, will be required. Staff Reconsendation - Staff would recommend preliminary plat approval subject to the following conditions: 1. Lot width variances are granted for Lots 2, 4, and 5. 2. Private road will be subject to the normal private ownership and maintenance covenants, and underlying road and utilities easements. 3. Access for Lots 3 and 4 shall be allowed separate creek crossing points, subject to any permits which may be required by the Watershed District and the Department of Natural Resources. 2
