Byers Subject:RE: [External] Subdivisions proposed in Orono Date:Tuesday, January 28, 2020 2:29:50 PM Attachments:image001.png Hello Jeremy, We discussed both items in our plat review committee mtg today (01/28) and offer the following preliminary thoughts for your team’s consideration: CSAH 15 (Carman St Parcels) · If the watershed district concludes there to be developable land here, our 1st recommendation would be to pursue an access easement to the east (commercial parcel). With the high crash rates and nearly 20,000 vehicles per day along this segment of Shoreline Dr we need to avoid direct access when we can. If an easement proves not to be a viable option, will need to combine two sites into one shared access. · Access should be between Navarre and the existing remnant curb cut app. 20’ to the east. Most importantly would be ensuring adequate sight distance and maintaining a positive offset for opposing left turns (with EB left turns @ Navarre) as we recently restriped (2019 overlay) this segment into a shared center left-turn lane · Driveway needs to have level landing to allow for optimal sight distance · Need to have site grading avoid need for any retaining walls along Shoreline Dr · If/when replatting we likely would request right-of-way dedication to match a 45’ half section (33’ half ROW today). · Please submit a drainage report when available CSAH 6 (1485 6th Ave N) Access is okay as is (pending verification of adequate sight distance) When replatting we likely would request a 50’ half right-of-way section (33’ half today) + a 10’ D+U easement For drainage pipe under CSAH 6, that empties into the lake on the west end of the subdivision plat, ensure adequate easement exists or can be dedicated to allow sufficient space for maintenance We request the gravel driveway on the east side of the lake be removed (appears this is no longer needed?) Ensure an access easement covers all three existing parcels served by the driveway Please submit a drainage report when available Thank you Jeremy for bringing these items to our attention early on in the process. Please keep us involved should either item continue to move forward Jason Jason Gottfried Transportation Planner Transportation Planning Office: 612-596-0394 jason.gottfried@hennepin.usHennepin County Public Works1600 Prairie DriveMedina, MN 55340 From: Jeremy Barnhart <jbarnhart@ci.orono.mn.us> Sent: Friday, January 24, 2020 8:24 AM To: Jason D Gottfried <Jason.Gottfried@hennepin.us>; Robert H.

Byers <Robert.Byers@hennepin.us> Cc: Laura Oakden <loakden@ci.orono.mn.us>; Adam Edwards <aedwards@ci.orono.mn.us> Subject: [External] Subdivisions proposed in Orono Bob, The City of Orono has received two sketch plan proposals for properties with frontage on Hennepin County Roads. The first is a proposed subdivision of 2474 and 2480 Carman Street, the applicant would split each of these lots, essentially creating two buildable lots with frontage and access off of Shoreline Dr. (See attachment Subject Parcels). Does the County have any recommendation relative to access location, type (shared driveway, etc.)? The second is a proposed subdivision at 1485 Sixth Avenue (see Newell Sketch Plan, attached), where the applicants proposed to split the large 24 acre parcel into three, with two lots fronting on 6th Avenue N. The proposed private road would be located over an existing driveway. The plans suggest access off of this new private road. We would appreciate any comments the County can offer prior to February 3rd. Please feel free to give me a call if you have any questions.
