#04-2998 March 12, 2004 Pages 6. Park/Trail Easements or Dedication Needed The City has no current plans for trails or parks that specifically require dedication ofland from this property. However, the southerly part of the property abuts the Luce Line and would make a nice addition to the trail corridor, with potential walking access to the creek. This unique configuration should be looked at by the Park Commission to determine whether the dedication ofland could result in regional trail access to the creek. While this might not be within the property owners' expectations for the property, the City does have an 8% Park Dedication requirement and the public benefits of such an access must at least be considered. Absent dedication ofland for parks, the Park Dedication Fee would be expected to be the maximum fee which by ordinance is capped at $5,550 per new lot. 7. Road Improvements and/or Easements Needed The City will require Road, Drainage and Utilities Easements over the private roads, which should be platted as outlots. Access to Brown Road. fu addition to the 40' easement shown on the applicants drawings, an additional 10 road easement exists along the north 1 O' of the plat of Kallestad Acres. The total corridor width is 50, and the road should be located to make use of this width. The City will require that the current driveway be upgraded to City standards all the way out to Brown Road. 8. Stormwater and Drainage Improvements and/or Easements Needed Development of the propertywill likelyrequire creation of stormwater management facilities which may include storm sewers, swales and runoff rate/quality control ponding within the site. Thepropertywill be subject to the Storm water and Drainage Trunk Fee, established currently at $2700 per acre for the 2-acre zone. 9. Utility Locations and Availability The property would be served by private wells and municipal sewer. Municipal sewer with capacity to serve the small number of units proposed is believed to be available in the Long Lake system into which Orono lines in this area discharge. These added units will have to be discussed with and approved by the City of Long Lake. 10. Utility Assessments or Connection Fees Whether a sewer unit connection charge for use of the existing sewer system would be required of this new development, has yet to be determined. The developer will be responsible for all costs associated with bringing sewer laterals to serve the proposed new lots, as well as for obtaining appropriate easements as required.
