The <br />Metropolitan Council did note in the letter that the City has now reached the 3.0 units per density level. <br />Gaffron indicated the Comprehensive Plan Amendment will be brought forward as a separate resolution <br />at a future meeting. <br /> <br />Also before the Council tonight is a resolution for preliminary plat approval. Gaffron noted the applicants <br />have had Staff’s memo since last Friday and that he did mention to them toward the middle of last week <br />that Staff has had some discussions regarding the easterly access point with Hennepin County. Initially <br />the applicants proposed two access points, which Hennepin County indicated they were not in favor of. <br />As a result, the applicants then proposed either a T-intersection or a cul-de-sac. <br /> <br />Gaffron indicated the T-intersection is the one that the Fire Department preferred, but in discussions with <br />the City Engineer, City Attorney and Staff, the potentials for that T-intersection were reviewed in relation <br />to how it would function for regular use. Gaffron stated the problem with having a T-intersection is the <br />difficulty for delivery trucks that are going to be coming to the neighborhood on a regular basis to <br />maneuver. Consequently, the recommendation of Staff is that it should be a cul-de-sac.
