PUBLIC HEARING: COMPREHENSIVE PLANAMENDMENT — CHANGE LAND USE DESIGNATION FROM URBAN RESIDENTL4L HIGH DENSITY TO NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL —13725 CROSSTOWNDRIVE NWAND 2604 138'' AVENUE NW City Planner Hanson noted the purpose of this item is to hold a public hearing and take input on a Comprehensive Plan Amendment to change Land Use Designation from Urban Residential High Density to Neighborhood Commercial. Regular Andover Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting Minutes — October 27, 2015 Page 2 City Planner Hanson reviewed the proposed Comprehensive Plan Amendment with the Commission. Commissioner Koehler asked what staffs rationale was behind requesting this change. Mr. Carlberg stated the current zoning is Neighborhood Business and that zoning and the use of the land fits in better with the neighborhood commercial land use designation. They feel this is consistent with the current zoning so the zoning can stay in place. Commissioner Sims asked why they want to do this now, what is the urgency for doing this now. Mr. Carlberg stated the property was purchased in December of 2012 by the Economic Development Authority and they currently have a purchase agreement on the property to sell it so an office building can be built on the site. In order for the EDA to proceed with the sale and the construction of the building, they have to change the land use designation from the current Urban Residential High Density designation to a commercial designation. He noted staff was not aware this was not designated as a commercial land use until the sale of the property came up. Commissioner Nemeth asked why this is proposed to be changed to Neighborhood Commercial and not Neighborhood Business. Mr. Carlberg stated Neighborhood Business is a zoning category and Neighborhood Commercial is a land use category. Commissioner Nemeth asked if 2604 was also to be changed. Mr. Carlberg indicated that was correct. Commissioner Peterson asked for clarification on the differences between Neighborhood Business and Neighborhood Commercial. Mr. Carlberg reviewed the differences between the two designations. He stated in this case the uses being proposed for this site fit into the Neighborhood Commercial land use designation and the current Neighborhood Business zoning designation. Commissioner Peterson asked if there is a long term plan for Bunker Lake Boulevard and Crosstown Drive. He felt there was adequate capacity right now but wondered if in the future it could become signalized. Mr. Carlberg stated staff expects that intersection to remain as currently constructed. Commissioner Sims asked what is currently on the two triangle parcels next to the large parcel. Ms. Hanson indicated they are empty. Commissioner Sims asked who owned those properties. Mr. Carlberg stated the City of Andover owns those parcels and there is currently a park with playground equipment on them. He noted these properties were not dedicated as park property. Motion by Koehler, seconded by Nemeth, to open the public hearing at 7:16 p.m. Motion carried on a 5 -ayes, 0 -nays, 0- present, 2- absent (Cleven, Gudmundson) vote. No one wished to address the Commission. Motion by Koehler, seconded by Nemeth, to close the public hearing at 7:17 p.m. Motion carried on a 5 -ayes, 0 -nays, 0- present, 2- absent (Cleven, Gudmundson) vote. Regular Andover Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting Minutes —October 27, 2015 Page 3 Motion by Koehler, seconded by Nemeth, to recommend to the City Council approval of the amended resolution, adding Exhibit B. Motion carried on a 5 -ayes, 0 -nays, 0- present, 2- absent (Cleven, Gudmundson) vote.

Hanson, City Planner SUBJECT: PUBLIC HEARING: Rezoning From R -1, Single Family Rural to R -4, Single Family Urban — Country Oaks North Second Addition — SW Land, LLC DATE: November 10, 2015 INTRODUCTION The Planning and Zoning Commission is asked to review and approve the request to rezone a portion of properties known as Country Oaks North Second Addition from R -1 Single Family Rural to R -4 Single Family Urban as requested by SW Land, LLC. DISCUSSION In July 2015, the Metropolitan Council and the City of Andover City Council approved a Comprehensive Plan Amendment (CPA) that changed the land use of 9.98 acres from RR -Rural Residential to URL — Urban Residential Low and 10.82 acres from URL — Urban Residential Low to RR -Rural Residential. The adopted CPA allows for the parcels to develop into a combination of rural and urban lots. The rezoning boundaries will be consistent with the land use. Attached is a map that shows the proposed rezoning boundaries and approved land use changes. As with all rezonings, the City shall find one of the two following findings that are provided by state statute: • The original zoning was in error. • The character of the area or times and conditions have changed to such an extent to warrant the rezoning. A portion of the properties are located within the Metropolitan Urban Service Area (MUSA) and also within the current stage of sewer expansion. Times and conditions have changed with the extension of municipal sewer and water into this area of the city. It has been requested by the property owner to rezone the properties so the land can be developed into a combination of rural and urban residential lots for the proposed development known as Country Oaks North Second Addition. ACTION REQUESTED The Planning and Zoning Commission is requested to hold a public hearing and make a recommendation to City Council for the rezoning request subject to the findings of the attached ordinance amendment. Recommendation of approval may be based on the fact that the parcels are located within the MUSA, water and sewer is available to the property, and the request is in compliance with the Andover Comprehensive Plan.

Hanson, City Planner SUBJECT: PUBLIC HEARING: Preliminary Plat of the Planned Unit Development (PUD) - Country Oaks North Second Addition — SW Land, LLC DATE: November 10, 2015 INTRODUCTION The Planning and Zoning Commission is asked to review the preliminary plat/PUD for Country Oaks North Second Addition. The plat contains 85 -urban lots, 14 — rural one (1) acre lots and Outlot A. DISCUSSION Conformance with Local and Regional Plans and Ordinances 1. 85 lots are located within the 2020 Metropolitan Urban Service Area (MUSA) however there are 84 available connections to municipal services. Block 1, Lot 16 is being replatted from Country Oaks North; the municipal service hook up is accounted for as part of the Country Oaks North plat. Outlot B will not have access to municipal services. If a service unit becomes available, Outlot B may potentially be available for development. The Andover Comprehensive Plan allows for the parcels to develop into urban lots at a density of 1.75 to 3.6 single family homes per acre. The density of the urban lots is 1.75 single family homes per acre. 14 rural lots will be served by individual septic systems. 4 rural lots will have individual wells and 9 will be served with municipal water. 2. The property is zoned Single Family Rural Residential (R -1). A portion of the parcels will need to be rezoned to Single Family Urban Residential (R -4) for the project to move forward. 3. The proposed project requires a PUD review to establish standards unique to this development. The Planning and Zoning Commission is asked to review the proposed PUD based on City Code 13 -3, Planned Unit Development. Access Access would be provided from Wintergreen Street NW via 161 st Avenue NW /County Road 20. Also as part of the plat, the street known as 167° Avenue NW will continue to the west with a connection to Hanson Boulevard. The City of Andover Transportation Plan (adopted in May 2009) depicts Wintergreen Street as a Municipal State Aid (MSA) designation and proposes a future connection to Hanson Boulevard and Ward Lake Drive. The Anoka County Highway Department reviewed the preliminary plat and provided comments. The City of Andover, Anoka County and SW Land, LLC will continue to work together to satisfy the requirements for the upgrades to Hanson Blvd NW. Trail System It should be noted that a trail exists on the east side of Wintergreen Street. The trail will be extended to the north along Wintergreen Street and the west along the north side of 167 "' Avenue to Hanson Boulevard. Trails will be provided in the NW comer of the plat (in the cul -de -sac on 170'h Ave NW) and within the proposed park to provide access to Maple View Open Space. Utilities Trunk sewer and water lines are located south of the land within the Country Oaks North development to serve the urban lots. Wetlands There is a minimal amount of wetlands as part of this plat. Wetlands delineations have been completed and approved. Lower Rum River Watershed Management Organization ( LRRWMO) The LRRWMO is in the process of reviewing the plat. The plat has been placed on the November 19, 2015 Board meeting with a recommendation of approval. Coordination with other Agencies The developer and/or owner are responsible to obtain all necessary permits (Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, U.S. Army Corp of Engineers, LRRWMO, Minnesota Pollution Control Agency, LGU and any other agency that may have an interest in the site). Initial contact shall be made with the City Engineering Department regarding this item. Park and Recreation Commission The Park and Recreation Commission reviewed the sketch plan at their April 2, 2015 meeting. The Commission is in support of a park within the development, as shown on the plat. The Commission, in addition to the land dedication, will also recommend cash in lieu of land for park dedication. Meeting minutes are attached for your review. The preliminary plat will be reviewed by the Commission on November 19, 2015. Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council Sketch Plan Review Meeting minutes are attached for your review from the April 14, 2015 Planning and Zoning Commission meeting and the April 21, 2015 City Council meeting. PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT (PUD) REVIEW Applicable Ordinances City Code 13 -3 -9 regulates the findings that are required for a PUD to be approved: 1. The proposed development is not in conflict with the goals of the Comprehensive Plan for the City. The proposed PUD is compatible with the goals, objectives and policies of the Comprehensive Plan. First, one of the goals is to maintain and enhance the quality of life in Andover by preserving the rural character of the community. The 1 acre lots provide a larger lot (more open space), giving the area a rural character as the surrounding lands transition into the future 2.5 acre lots to the north. Second, one of the goals is to allow residential growth while maintaining the quality of natural resources and amenities by defining urban and rural areas and creating opportunities to preserve open space and natural amenities. The rural lots are proposed to be custom graded meaning more trees will be saved during the construction process. The tree preservation plan depicts areas where trees are intended to be preserved. Tree preservation will provide buffering between residential development and the City of Andover Maple View Open Space, between the 1 acres lots and the future rural lots directly the north, and between the urban lots, railroad track, and rural development along the east side of the plat. 2. The proposed development is designed in such a manner as to form a desirable and unified environment within its own boundaries. Although the development will consist of a mix of urban and rural lots, the streets within the development will be constructed to urban standards to give the entire development a unified feel. The entire development will be curbed and guttered with storm water runoff being treated within ponds rather than in a ditch system that is typical of rural developments. 3. The proposed development demonstrates how each modified or waived requirement contributes to achieving the purpose of PUD. Lots The 85 — urban lots and Outlot B will not deviate from City Code requirements since each lot meets or exceeds the R4 — Single Family Urban lot standards; all of which, with the exception of Outlot B, will be served by MUSA. 13- rural lots are proposed to be 1 -acre in size and 1 -rural lot will be 2.78 acres in size. They will be served by individual septic systems. The 9 rural lots on the northern boundary of the plat will be served with municipal water. The 4 rural lots along 167`s Ave will be served with individual wells. The rural lot PUD standards are as follows: No. Item -1 Standard P.U.D. Reason for Request 1 Min. Lot Width 300 feet 80 to 235 feet To provide urban amenities with a rural feel 2 Min. Lot Depth 150 feet 180 — 328 feet Conforms to R -1 standards. All lots exceed lot standards 3 Min. Lot Area 2.5 acres 1 acre To provide a transitional buffer between the urban lots and 2.5 acre rural lots; To provide a variety of lot sizes to clients within the City of Andover, here is a market demand for larger urban lots; To 6rovide a rural feel in an urban environment 4 Front Setback 40 feet 40 feet Conforms to R -1 setback standards 5 Side Setback Setback to street corner lot 10 feet 40 feet 10 feet 40 feet Conforms to R -1 setback standards 6 Rear Setback 50 feet 50 feet Conforms to R -1 setback standards Attached is a letter submitted by the applicant of the design qualities this PUD with provide to the City. City Code 13 -3 -11 identifies Desirable PUD Design Qualities that are sought in any PUD proposal as listed below. A. Achieves efficiency in the provision of streets and utilities and preserves area to achieve the elements of design qualities described in this Chapter. Curbing along the rural lots will create an urban environment. The home will be placed into the existing natural landscape while maintaining the rural feel. B. Provides convenient and safe access for vehicles and pedestrians and all types of activity that are anticipated to be a part of the proposed development. As part of the development, 167'h Ave NW will be extended to the west to connect with Hanson Blvd NW. The street connection alleviates traffic concerns to the south and will provide an additional access to the area in an event of an emergency. Also, a trail will be located along the northern side of 167'' Ave NW to provide pedestrians with a safe route from the development to Hanson Blvd NW. C. Provides a buffer between different uses, adjacent properties, roadways, and between yards of back- to- back lots. The tree line does not offer buffering between yards of back- to- back lots. Tree removal is required in these areas to provide proper storm water drainage. However, tree preservation does provide buffering of the development from the rural land to the north, the open space to the west, and the railroad tracks and rural lots to the east. D. Preserves existing stands of trees and/or significant trees and provides additional tree plantings. Existing stands of trees will buffer the development from the north, west, and east. The custom grade lots will be unique to the development. The majority of trees will be preserved except for the pad, drain field and driveway. This provides additional buffering to the open space and rural land uses to the north. The mature trees also increase property values, provide privacy, natural habitat, and environmental benefits. E. The proposed structures within the development demonstrate quality architectural design and the use of high quality building materials for unique design and detailing. The homes provide a substantial amount of stone on the front elevation as well as maintenance free siding, hardy board, vinyl shakes and columns at the entrances of the structures. The homes will also have a three stall attached garage. F. Preserves significant useable space on individual lots or through the provision of open space within the development. The 1 -acre lots preserve useable open space while maintaining the natural habitat for the area. G. Provides an attractive streetscape through use of topography, landscaping, decorative street lighting, decorative mailbox groupings, retaining walls, boulders, fencing, area identification signs, etc. The development will provide attractive streetscape through decorative mailbox groupings and by providing curb along the streets in the rural sections of the development. Homes The two housing styles, ranch -style and two -story, and color- schemes are proposed as shown on building elevations that will be available at the Planning and Zoning Commission meeting. The home styles will be similar to the construction of homes in the development to the south known as Country Oaks North. Tree Preservation Plan The attached Tree Preservation Plan illustrates trees to be preserved. The developer is preserving as many existing trees possible to provide a buffer between the open space to the west, future rural development to the north, and the railroad and rural lots to the east. In addition, the developer will be preserving as many trees as possible on the 1 acre lots by providing custom graded lots. Tree removal will mostly be limited to the building pad, driveway and septic area. ACTION REQUESTED The Planning and Zoning Commission is asked to hold a public hearing to gather public input, review the proposed preliminary plat/PUD and make a recommendation to City Council.

Mr. Carlberg reviewed the staff report with the Council. Mayor Trude requested staff explain how far away sewer capacity is to this part of the City because she heard some of the Planning and Zoning Commissioners talk about this and this is a topic they were not well informed on so she would like it explained for the new Councilmembers. Mr. Berkowitz reviewed the sewer capacity available in this part of the City. Mr. Carlberg continued with the staff report review. © Councilmember Knight asked if the access to the proposed park would also be the access to the open space. Mr. Carlberg stated it would be one of them. He stated this is the design from the developer's perspective, noting an additional access on the northwest comer of the development. There would be an opportunity from this development to walk up to the open space. The Council consensus was to be able to get the road connection from the development west to Hanson Boulevard. Mayor Trude stated there was discussion at a workshop meeting that some Councilmembers and staff wanted a second connection between the new forty into the area owned by the City. She wondered if the Council still wants that second connection. Councilmember Holthus asked if the strip that includes the State Aid Road owned b&* C1tyj�,v currently for open space. Mr. Carlberg indicated the developer will need a purchase agreement with the City for the purposes of bringing the road out to Hanson Boulevard. He stated in addition the developer has other properties along the proposed roadway locked up to provide the access to Hanson Boulevard. Councilmember Goodrich asked if the City has been in contact with the Met Council regarding a MUSA swap and are they in agreement with this swap. Mr. Carlberg stated staff have had some © preliminary discussions with the Met Council and knowing that they are taking a 10.82 acre piece and swapping it for a 9.98 acre piece, they seem to be supportive of it. The City is not asking for more MUSA. © Regular Andover City Council Meeting Minutes —April 21, 2015 Page 6 Councilmember Goodrich asked if the slot between the green and blue areas depicted on the map will remain City owned and have they decided if there is going to be a park there or would the City take the dedicated funds. Mr. Carlberg stated that is yet to be determined. Mayor Trude thought they all knew they needed access to the open space and she wondered if the Council felt two accesses were adequate and if there should be a parking area for the open space property. She did talk to the City Engineer to see if they could do some bump outs along the proposed State Aid roadway to provide on street parking. Councilmember Goodrich stated he thought the plans look great but one thing that concerns him is the access on the north side into the open space. He wondered if the residents would be irritated with on- street parking there. Mr. Carlberg stated if they experience a problem they can look at what can be done such as no parking areas. He stated there is another access where the community could enter the open space at and the second access is really only for pedestrian use of the development. Mayor Trude stated the developer is looking at tot lot equipment and they do have a playground two blocks from the development with a sidewalk all the way down so she wondered if the Council had any thoughts on that. Councilmember Holthus stated she would rather see this all remain open space without a park and playground equipment. Staff showed the Council the existing park and indicated it is approximately half a mile from the new development. Mayor Trude thought this was a common distance in the southern City developments. Mayor Trude showed photos of the area and what would be the entrance to the open space area. Mayor Trude asked if they really wanted to sell Mr. Wold all of the ten acres to get the road west or can they look at getting the road west as they need but do not build anymore homes than they have to and assess the road costs to the City for that section where there are the four large lots. As soon as they sell the extra five acre lots the forest will go away and it is really a high quality hardwood forest that the taxpayers own now. The small lots are perhaps enough to help pay for some of the road and connections. She stated she would like to have some things looked at to preserve most of the trees. Councilmember Holthus asked how many lots were lost or gained when the street change was made in the swap area. She wondered if any lots were added because those added lots may make up for what they would lose on 167' Avenue. Mr. Wold stated the lot swap is even; no lots were gained or lost. He stated the reason for the connection road through the City property was © Council and staff preferred a road that connects. Mayor Trude asked if it would make or break his project to build homes in the area shown in green. Mr. Wold stated not necessarily. With one acre lots, the advantage is they still do get to Regular Andover City Council Meeting Minutes — April 21, 2015 Page 7 utilize the natural resources that are there. The north 150 feet of trees along the open space will be utilized and the trees will remain. There will still be some trees saved and they will selectively grade those lots. He thought it was a great mix of homes in the development. The lots are a better value if the trees are preserved. Mayor Trude asked if he would consider some kind of conservation easement across the back of the lots adjacent to the open space property to preserve the trees so people do not take down the trees in order to put up a shed or garage. She thought that would kind of diminish that concern. Mayor Trude asked if the City did not sell the green area to the developer and let them build the road on City land and the City kept the rest for open space, what would the City's cost be to help contribute towards the road in that area. Mr. Dickinson stated the developer is proposing a concept where by putting some lots in there and generating some land sales, that creates some economics for them to help construct that road. If those lots are not there, the developers motivation for that area in there is diminished and they would be looking for some contribution from the City to help facilitate that road through there because there are fewer lots to help pay for that road. Mr. Dickinson stated they have not figured out how the road is going to get built or paid for yet. They would have to build the road publicly if it is going to be assessed. Mayor Trude stated the proposed homes in the blue area are a lot of density for a small area that the City is willing to sell in order to get a road connection. She stated the road is going into the City land to avoid the wetlands that the DNR wants to protect. They need the road but do not need the houses. If they accommodate allowing their code to allow one acres lots in the north half of the other development, which they have never done that for any other developer and if they do that in this area it is helping Mr. Wold do something because if they were to follow the code Mr. Wold would have half as many homes in the north area. There is a lot of value allowing Mr. Wold to develop twice the rural density. Mr. Carlberg stated that is part of the trade off on this whole transitional area they continued to have problems and concerns with and wanted to look at something different. Councilmember Goodrich stated he liked the sketch plan as it is with the homes along the roadway. He thought this was a good buffer for the open space area and they can talk about the setbacks. He thought if the homes were there the developer would be in a little better financial position to pay for the road to go through to Hanson Boulevard. Councilmember Holthus wondered how they can make some kind of a compromise because she likes the trees too and hears many complaints from residents about developers clear cutting new developments and she hated seeing the large trees go. She wondered if there is anything gained from the swap. She is also wondering if there is any way they could change the lot configuration a little bit in order to keep some of the homes and the heaviest wooded areas intact. Councilmember Knight thought the entire development went together so well. He thought the development would really fit in this area and he liked the entire design. Q Regular Andover City Council Meeting Minutes — April 21, 2015 Page 8 Mayor Trude thought the developer could look at the setbacks of the homes along the roadway and if they will be doing custom grading they will have a lot of control over that because that brings value. Mr. Carlberg stated with one acre lots they have to think of the rural requirements. They are required to have a well and there are separation requirements from the septic areas. They are required to have two five thousand square foot designated septic areas for a primary and secondary drainfield. The developer can lay that out and staff can work with them on that. Unless there is some kind of conservation easement recorded, they cannot prevent a property owner from removing trees or doing things on that property provided they meet all of the City requirements. Mr. Wold stated he liked the park in the development because they need to have something there with all of the kids that will be in the area. He thought there could be a shelter and a natural walking path going to the open space. They would like to see off street parking. He thought the forty acres of open space will really add to the project. Mayor Trude indicated she would have saved the four lots and had the taxpayers pay for that part of the road because people values trees that live in Andover but the Council likes the design. Councilmember Knight indicated the layout is a natural for that area. 10 Mr. Wold stated they really want to build the park but did not think it needed to be extensive. They could have a shelter with a tot lot. He would propose to do the park much like the Country Oaks West development. Mr. Dickinson indicated that if the developer builds the park, credit would be provided to his park dedication requirement. I RIM USE PERMIT FOR MINING AT PROPERTIES LOCATED AT THE SE CORNER VA PER BL VDNWANDBUTTERNUTSTREETNWASREQ VESTED BY MR. MARK SMITH. Mr. Carlberg stated Mark Smith is proposing to borrow (mine) up to 57,500 cubic yards of materials from the prope ' es he owns along Andover Boulevard and Butternut Street. City Code 12 -16 requires an interim use ermit for mining materials on a property. Mr. Carlberg reviewed the informatioi�vith the Council. Mayor Trude asked Mr. Berkowitz to review w' the Council where all of the mining will be coming from. Mr. Berkowitz indicated it is comin om the entire site. Mayor Trude indicated when she reviewed this earlier with Mr. Berkowitz it w noted that less of the mining would be coming from Ms. Mohlencamp's area and more of it is com' fr om the south where there is a home that Mr. Smith owns. Mr. Berkowitz stated closer to the Mohlencamp's house there is less nu 'ng being done but closer to the creek, south, there is more. It depends on the existing contour n how deep the mining is going. He stated it is very proportional over the entire site. NDOVEI' I PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION MEETING — APRIL 14, 201 S The Regular Bi- Monthly Meeting of the Andover Planning and Zoning Commission was called to order by Chairperson Daninger on April 14, 2015, 7:00 p.m., at the Andover City Hall, 1685 Crosstown Boulevard NW, Andover, Minnesota. Commissioners present: Commissioners Timothy Cleven, Bert Koehler IV, Kyle Nemeth, Steve Peterson and Jeff Sims. Commissioners absent: Lynae Gudmundson. Also present: Community Development Director Dave Carlberg City Planner Stephanie Hanson Associate Planner Brett Angell Others 10 SWEARING IN OF COMMISSIONER STEVE PETERSON Oath of Office was given to Commissioner Peterson by Mr. Carlberg. APPR O VALVF MINUTES. March 10, 2015 Commissioner Nemeth stated on a two, fourth paragraph, fourth sentence in should read: "Open Space Pesigaafiew -Lan a Designation... ". It was noted the minutes would be tabled until t ext meeting in order to have a quorum to approve. F BLIC HEARING: Residential Sketch Plan Review — Country Oaks North Second dition — SW Inves#nents LLC City Planner Hanson noted the purpose of this item is to hold a public hearing and take input on a residential sketch plan review for Country Oaks North Second Addition. City Planner Hanson reviewed the proposed sketch plan with the Commission. Regular Andover Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting Minutes — April 14, 2015 Page 2 X Commissioner Koehler stated it was referenced they were short a sewer hook up and the developer would need to find another place to obtain one and he wondered if there was one in the area that the builder can use. Ms. Hanson stated there is. There are areas that he can work with landowners to obtain another hookup. Commissioner Cleven stated the cul -de -sac is close to five hundred feet and he wondered if it would be a problem with the Fire Department. Mr. Carlberg indicated this will not be a problem because they have the five hundred foot cul- de-sac rule and the street cannot be extended through because of the wetland/open space property. This will be addressed further in the Preliminary Plat. They may need to ask for a variance if longer than five hundred feet. Commissioner Nemeth asked if the one -acre lots could be changed into urban residential lots. Ms. Hanson stated they would not be able to do that because of the capacity issues with the MUSA. On the trunk line, there are only 84 units available for this entire property so they will not get anymore sewered lots. Commissioner Nemeth asked if the developer could connect into another trunk line along the way from another direction, would it be a possibility to change the lot sizes. Ms. Hanson indicated that would not be possible because there was only one trunk system that serves this area. Commissioner Nemeth wondered why there is not a thru street with the two cul -de -sacs. He thought that would make a circular street. Ms. Hanson indicated that would be a question for the developer to answer. Commissioner Sims asked by amending the Comprehensive Plan does the plan lose validity if they keep amending it. He asked what it means when staff will continue to work with the applicant. Ms. Hanson stated they have to figure out first of all if the Council and Commission Members are on board with one acre lots and if they support that, then staff needs to move forward and look at if the lots will be allowed through a planned unit development or are they going to change codes to allow one acre lots. Commissioner Nemeth asked what the likelihood is that Met Council will allow the switching. Ms. Hanson stated she has been in contact with Met Council staff discussing the possibility of this type of Comp. Plan Amendments and at this point, they are showing support for it because it is an even swap. Commissioner Nemeth stated in regards to the trail system where the trail on Wintergreen Street is. Ms. Hanson showed on the map where the trail is located at and where it will continue to the northern boundary of the plat and along 167`" Avenue through the development to Hanson Boulevard. C Regular Andover Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting Minutes —April 14, 2015 Page 3 Motion by Nemeth, seconded by Koehler, to open the public hearing at 7:27 p.m. Motion carried on a 6 -ayes, 0 -nays, 1- absent (Gudmundson) vote. Mr. Scott Wold, S.W. Investments, 3408 167`h Lane, was at the meeting to answer questions. Commissioner Nemeth asked if there has been any thought on connecting the two cut -de- sacs. Mr. Wold stated the reason they do not have anything connected, is there is a need for ponding and run off in the development and it is designated in that area for storm ponding. Commissioner Nemeth asked if any thought was given to bringing in extra capacity of sewer from a neighboring area to make this a complete urban development. Mr. Wold stated when they developed the parcel to the south, there was a forty foot easement left there for a future crossover for the railroad tracks. They have taken the time to approach the railroad and it seems as if that will not take place. Mr. Carlberg noted when County Oaks North developed, there was a forty foot piece reserved including a forty foot piece in this development which was the future connection across the railroad tracks on the east side. They do not know if they will ever gain support from BNSF to do that but they planned for it. What Mr. Wold is looking at is © this would be his eighty -fifth lot potentially. Mr. Wold noted there are other developments in the process now that hookups are allotted to and there may be an extra service hookup as they develop. At this point, their intention is to keep this as an outlot, stub the service in, and if a service were to become available, they could pick it up to utilize the lot that is already there. Commissioner Nemeth stated they have the fifteen one acre lots and he wondered if there has been any thought into making them into urban lots and attempting to get additional sewer hookups from a neighboring area in order to make this complete development urban and not a mix. Mr. Wold stated there are not thirty services available in other areas. They are trying to utilize the land as best as they can. Commissioner Peterson asked along the railroad tracks if there were any plans to try to buffer the homes. Mr. Wold stated they are trying to keep as much buffer as they can and the lot depth is at two hundred or more feet in the back and they are going to be very detailed in the tree removal when they go forward and want to leave as much as possible. Commissioner Peterson asked if these lots are approximately the same as the lots that were developed to the south. Mr. Wold indicated that was correct. They are not trying to put in a minimum lot size, they were going to be a really nice transition to the rural area to the north and have buffers to the open space. C Regular Andover Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting Minutes —April 14, 2015 Page 4 Chair Daninger asked who is going to pay for the improvements to the interchange. Mr. Carlberg stated the road itself is going to be paid for by the developer but it is a State Aid Route so there will likely be some City participation and likely County Highway input. This will be a cost shared road system. Chair Daninger asked if this will still move forward if the Council wants 2.5 -acre lots rather than one -acre lots. Mr. Wold stated it will still move forward. Mr. Carlberg stated it is the City as well as the Council that is supportive of this transition zone so the ideas have come through many discussions. This is desirable as a transition from urban to rural. Motion by Nemeth, seconded by Cleven, to close the public hearing at 7:49 p.m. Motion carried on a 6 -ayes, 0 -nays, 1- absent (Gudmundson) vote. Commissioner Koehler stated in regard to the cul -de -sacs, he did not know if it is such a good idea to connect them because it provides one thru outlet for traffic and is safer. It does not create a loop. Commissioner Sims stated he would be against the one -acre lots because if they make an exception for this development the next developer may want the same thing. He stated this is zoned for 2.5 -acre lots and he would expect the developer to come to them with a development that is zoned that way. He did not think they should be changing the rules for any developer and struggled with the idea why they would change the rules for any developer. Commissioner Nemeth thought they could look at this as a planned unit development where if they do have the one -acre lots, they could discuss with Mr. Wold some additional gives that he will be providing to make this development a little bit better. If they go down that route, they could do a give and take. This may set a precedent for other developers as they come forward however he thought the one acre lots is a nice buffer between the urban lots and the open space. He stated there is a demand for one- acre lots so he took that into consideration also. Commissioner Koehler stated the rules are in place and they need to be smart enough to know when to adhere to them and when to make exceptions to them. They are not beholding to the rules, they are beholding to the citizens of the City and if the citizens of the City would benefit from a little bending of the rules that is why they have variances and PUDs and ways to work within their framework. This is not about the developer; it is about the citizens of Andover. Commissioner Cleven stated something he would ask as an added feature to the City is along the twenty -foot easement into the open space to think about something that would ® limit the residents on the pathway from going onto the private property, whether it be a fence or shrubs that would be provided by the developer. PARKAND RECREATION C01IIMISSION MEETING APRIL 212015 MINUTES The Regular Bi- Monthly Meeting of the Andover Park and Recreation Commission was called to order by Chair Stenzel on April 2, 2015 at 7:00 p.m. at the Andover City Hall, 1685 Crosstown Boulevard NW, Andover, Minnesota. Commissioners Present: Chair Shane Stenzel, vice Chair Jim Lindahl, Commissioners Ted Butter, Sarah Elstrom, Alisa Lewnau, Angela Marinello, and Mark Miskowiec Commissioners Absent: None Also Present: Assistant Public Works Director, Todd Haas Others RESIDENT FOR UAI No one appeared to address the Commission APPROVAL OF MINUTES Motion by Commissioner Lindahl, seconded by Commissioner Marinello, to approve the minutes of the March 19, 2015 on a 6 -ayes, 0 -nays, 0- absent, 1- present ( Lewnau) vote. r CONSIDER COUNTRY OAKS NORTH 2ND ADDITION SKETCH PLAN Mr. Haas presented a copy of the sketch plan to the Commission. He reviewed this is the same sketch plan that was previously sent to the Commission by email on March 12, 2015 so that the Commission had some time to review the sketch plan. The proposed sketch plan is located just to the north and west of Country Oaks North development. There was some discussion at the joint meeting with the Open Space Commission on December 18, 2014 about some potential ideas regarding the 10 acres that was not purchased as open space but for other possible improvements such as a new street out to Hanson Boulevard NW and possibly a park of some sort. The street is being proposed with a horizontal curve to avoid impacts to the existing wetlands to the west and south of the proposed development. The final alignment will be determined at a later date. The developer identifies on the plan that includes a small parking lot (8 -10 stalls), a playground area and a trail that would provide access to the open space property. The Regular Andover Park & Recreation Commission fleeting Minutes —April 2, 2015 Page 2 portion that the park is shown is on City owned property so the developer park dedication -- requirements will be cash in -lieu of land. The developer and/or a representative have been requested to attend the meeting to answer any questions the Commission may have. Mr. Haas reviewed drawings of the sketch plan. The Commission is requested to review the sketch plan and provide a recommendation to the Planning Commission. The access road to Hanson Blvd. is a requirement by the City Council. Chair Stenzel asked if there would be access without that piece of land and Mr. Haas stated the City Council would still have the option to take keep some of land for an access. Commissioner Miskowiec asked if there was a parking lot and would this be the only access to the Open Space. Mr. Haas replied that yes this would be the only parking lot. As far a's another access, it is proposed to provide a trail access from the single family portion of the development from the northwest corner of the sketch plan to the open space property. Chair Stenzel asked if there is a wetland and Mr. Haas referred to the area on the plan of the wetland delineation. Commissioner Miskowiec asked if irrigation was necessary and Mr. Haas stated irrigation would be rice to have at some point. Chair Stenzel stated there needs to be a parking area. Chair Butler stated the location proposed is a good one. This would provide an entry point from parkland to the Open Space. Commissioner Miskowiec agreed. Commissioner Lewnau asked if there is a way to add more parking and Mr. Haas stated 8 -10 parking spaces should be enough as proposed in the plan. Mr. Haas stated there is a trail proposed on the north side of the street that will extend from the new development to Hanson Blvd. Motion by Commissioner Lindahl, seconded by Commissioner Butler, to recommend the park location as identified on the sketch plan and accepting cash in lieu of land. Motion carried on a 7 -ayes, 0 -nays, 0- absent vote. CONSIDER IMPROVEMENTS TO ROSE PARK Mr. Haas requested the Park and Recreation Commission to consider additional improvements to Rose Park, Project 14 -13.

Such administrative approvals shall not substantially alter the character of the approved PUD and shall be limited to landscaping (not including quantity reduction), color schemes (not including materials), association documents, fencing, entrance monuments and decks. Changes in uses or development/design standards must be submitted for a full public hearing review process. (Amended Ord. 314, 10 -4 -2005) 13 -3 -11: DESIRABLE PUD DESIGN QUALITIES: The following design qualities will be sought in any PUD: A. Achieves efficiency in the provision of streets and utilities and preserves area to achieve the elements of design qualities described in this chapter. B. Provides convenient and safe access for vehicles and pedestrians and all types of activity that are anticipated to be a part of the proposed development. C. Provides a buffer between different uses, adjacent properties, roadways, between backyards of back -to -back lots. D. Preserves existing stands of trees and /or significant trees. E. Provides considerable landscaping treatments that complement the overall design and contribute toward an overall landscaping theme. F. Preserves significant usable space on individual lots or through the provision of open space within the development. G. Provides an attractive streetscape through the use of undulating topography, landscaping, decorative street lighting, decorative mailbox groupings, retaining walls, boulders, fencing, area identification signs, etc. H. The proposed structures within the development demonstrate quality architectural design and the use of high quality building materials for unique design and detailing. The lasting quality of the development will be ensured by design, maintenance and use guidelines established through an owners' association. (Ord. 298, 8 -4 -2004) 13 -3 -12: APPROVAL OF PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT: The developer must demonstrate that the amenities and qualities of the Planned Unit PUD Project Overview The purpose of the Planned Unit Development is to use a mix of single family urban lots with some rural one acre lots to create a good transition between open space areas and potential 2.5 acre lots to the north and open space to the north and west. With the addition of the 1 acre lots it has made the project feasible and allowed flexibility in our street layouts and a second connection to Wintergreen Street. It opens up an area for natural trails to access two points to the open space. It allows the lots to remain natural with custom pads to be fitted into the existing treed areas. The curbs along the streets will create an urban environment while the homes will be tucked into the natural landscape that exists maintaining a slightly rural feel. The mail boxes will be placed in clusters of 16 banks to match throughout the neighborhood. By choosing to use curbs instead of rural ditches and culverts it wi II cause the boulevards to be cleared and graded creating a blend of existing grades into new grades. Softening the transition between the new urban lots and the I acre residential rural lots creating a neighborhood feel and allows an area for utilities to move through the project. We have established areas on each lot for septic systems. The fact is most of the lots will be untouched from clearing. Almost any of the areas un- cleared will perk for septic systems. We would anticipate as the custom lot pad is built that as many of the trees as possible will be saved. The tanks for the septics will be set close to the house pads, so just the fingers of the drain fields will be woven amongst the trees. These lots will be unique and require the builder to put thought into the custom home design and layout on these lots. With the quality of these lots, what they will cost and cost to build on, we expect to draw some of the very best homes in the area creating an up scale neighborhood. MEMORANDI/M TO: Stephanie Hanson, City Planner FROM: David Berkowitz, Director of Public Works /City Engineerzg; Jason J. Law, Asst. City Engineer DATE: October 22, 2015 REFERENCE: Country Oaks North 2 n Add. / Grading, Drainage & Erosion Control Plan/Review #2 The following comments have vet to be completed in regards to Review 41• 14. Sheet C202: A separate agreement (right of entry) or temporary construction easement will be required for the 34' temporary construction easement along 167`t' Avenue. This document may need to be approved by MnDOT as this will be a state aid route. This will be required within 30 days ofpreliminary plat approval Response letter said it will be provided before construction. This needs to betaken care of within 30 days of preliminary plat approval. 16. Sheet C301: The City would prefer to not have the long, linear infiltration basin shown in Block 2. Past experience is these are a challenging design for properties that back up to this type of system as they are not allowed to construct fences, trees, or other structures in these areas and it becomes somewhat of a no -man's land between properties, particularly if fences go up. We would prefer to see a series of open water ponds with a rear yard drainage swale that is not nearly as deep as the current design (currently about 6.5' deep). To achieve infiltration requirements, a series of 6" high ditch checks could be used in the rear yard drainage swale to allow for some infiltration. Minor changes were submitted, but the general feel of the long linear basin is still in the plan. For the reasons mentioned above they are not ideal and limit usage of yards. Staff would prefer to not have this type of design unless there is no other feasible option. 28. Sheet C301 and C302: Call out the emergency overflow elevations and locations for all low points in the street. EOF's can be between lots, but water should not get any more than 6" above the top of curb at the low points prior to overflowing. EOF's along 168'x' Avenue and Wintergreen Street would not work, contours between homes need to be adjusted with spot elevations added between homes to maintain the EOF's. No EOF labeled on west end of 170"' Avenue. Where is the EOFfor the Pond Area 3P? Tlie IE of the culvert is listed as the EOF. Does the natural EOFflow north? If so, call out elevations more clearly. 35. Sheet C301 and C302. Show all lot comer elevations and all intermediate points deemed necessary. Add a few more along the west plat line, west side of Block 6, and east side of Block 3 even they are only existing elevations so drainage patterns are obvious. 40. Sheet C302: Turn the lot pad on Lot 4, Block 6 to be parallel with the roadway and closer to the front setback so it sits better with the Lot 3 pad. For this lot, use the frontsetback from the tangentpart of the road, ignore the cul de sac bubble. Then fit the pad so it's somewhat centered between the lots to the north and south. 41. Sheet C302: Need to provide a 10 drainage and utility easement on the property south of the plat where the storm sewer is proposed. Also need to provide a letter from property owner to the south granting developer permission to grade on that property. The revised plain for this area shows an 8' deep ditch across the property to the south. Our understanding is the owner plans on building a home on this lot, and this ditch will make access difficult Any drainage across this lot would also require dedicated drainage and utility easement. A better option may be to run a pipe from the southeast corner of Lot S and tie into the storm server in the cul de sac (keep in mind, D& UE also needed over pipes/culverts). The low are would need to be modeled as a pond if this option is chosen. The City would allow the ditch as shown, but if this option is kept, we will need a letter of concurrence from the owner that he understands this ditchldrainage way must be maintained and a drainage and utility easement would be required which will limit what can be done with his property. 45. Sheet C302: Include "Atlas 14" behind the 100 Year HWL for the wetland complex south of 167"' Avenue. Not done. 52. Sheet C303: For Detail 7, make the rip rap depth 24 ". The size of some of the class III and IV rock is deepef than the 9" shown in the detail. Revise notes in this detail to comply with the pond names in this plat. Same as elevation callouts. Revise the detail so it's clear to use 24" of rip rap, will, 9" being above f,nished grade. Add a note "Refer to Grading Plans for each basins outlet elevation (top of rip rap)': 55. Sheet C401: Update the Pond EP elevation data. Data has been frozen on this sheet, turn back on. 56. Sheet C401 and C402: Draw the outline of the HWL for all ponding areas. Nli'L is shown, show outline of HWL elevation. Freeze all other contour information in the utility plans for clarity. 70. Sheet C501: Label 15:1 tapers in plan view for the turn and bypass lanes. All not labeled Refer to markups. The following comments are in regards to Review #2• 201. Sheet C100: Add hatch in Area Map out to Hanson Boulevard. 202. Sheet C 101 and C 102: Call out removal of all fencing around the project. 203. Sheet C101: Show private utilities in Wintergreen Street south of plat. 204. Sheet C 10 1 and C102: Need to have a plan sheet where tree removal or tree preservation area is shown in the plan set. This could be done on these plans, or add separate plan sheets and not just be a footnote that it's all areas outside of the silt fence. 205. Sheet C201 and all applicable plan sheets: Label "168th Avenue NW" west of Yellow Pine Street NW. 206. Sheets C201 and C202: Make changes to easements and Vehicle Maintenance Accesses per following comments. 207. Sheet C201: Update the Proposed Zoning Table for I acre lots, minimum lot width is less than the 162' called out in the table for lots along 167th Avenue. 208. Sheet C202: Call out 66' Right of Way, not easement along 167th Avenue up to the west limit of the plat. From that point west to Hanson Boulevard is should be "66' Roadway, Drainage and Utility Easement." Call out the 34' Construction Easement as temporary. 209. Sheet C301: Pave an 8' bituminous trail in the northwest corner of the plat out to the open space property. Add a ped ramp and bollard up near the cul de sac at the entrance to the trail. 210. Sheet C301: Where is the D &UE in the northwest corner of the plat, there's a wetland buffer line but no easement line. Make sure the pipe outlet from Pond 2P is all within a D &UE. 211. Sheet C301: Look closer at the grading for Lot 10, Block 4 to try to eliminate cross drainage from the lot to the south. 212. Sheet C301: Clean up overlapping existing contours around Pond EP on the south end. 213. Sheet C301: Add inlet protection to catch basin along 168th Avenue. 214. Sheet 001: Look at grading for lot 1, Block 1. Rear yard is flatter than 2 %, so add additional spot elevations to the lot and side yard line. Freeze the leader line in the rear yard that doesn't point to anything. 215. Sheet C301: Slide up spot elevations overlapping VMA hatch in all locations so they are legible. 216. Sheet C301 and C' )02: Add more labels to proposed and existing contours through plans. 217. Sheet C301: Street grades shall be 0.5% minimum, 170th Avenue west of Xeon Street is less than 0.5 %. 218. Sheet C301: Delete the dot hatch showing the old VMA on Lots 12 and 13 of the I't Addition. 219. Sheet C301: Copy the Basin 1P NWL and HWL information and put it in Lot 6, Block 2. With such a long pond, nice to have it in two locations. 220. Sheet 001: For Lots 21 -26, Block 4, the LFE should be 3' above the Highest Anticipated Water Table elevation of 899 (so LFE of 902 minimum). Revise in the plan view and lot tabulation. 221. Sheet C301: Add silt fence along north side of 1701h Avenue NW. 222. Sheet C301: For Basin 2P, expand pond grading west and either north of south so the outlet culvert length can be reduced. A 265' long reverse grade pipe @0.5% will have a strong potential of plugging, in addition, there is no cover over a long stretch of this pipe. Revise the D &UE's as necessary based upon this revision. 223. Sheet C301: Look at grading for Lot 13, Block 4. Contours show a swale running right along the back edge of the pad. 224. Sheet C301: Extend the D &UE straight out from the west side of Pond 1 P as marked up, this will help cover the cross drainage from lots to the west. 225. Sheet C301: In the Lot Tabulation, Add "Anticipated" to the Highest GW column. Add "HWL" to the 100 YR column. 226. Sheet C301 and C302: Put an asterisk in the LFE column in the lot tabulation for all lots requiring grinder pumps, and put the same note on C301 that is on the utility plans regarding grinder pumps. This is the sheet that the building department will refer to when permits are pulled for homes. 227. Sheet C301: In the lot tabulation, don't put "custom" for Minimum LFE, put the actual minimum. For custom lot driveway grades, put 8% maximum or calculate what they would be based upon being 18" minimum above the top of curb per City Code 9- 3 -3 -A1. 228. Sheet C301: Double check lot tabulation to make sure all elevations match the plan view. All HWL elevations backing up to ponding areas are incorrect in the tabulation. Revise to match the plan and model, and make sure that LFE's are OK. Model mitigation areas and add HWL's to table if they control LFE elevations. 229. Sheet C301: Add a cross hatch in the Legend for Vehicle Maintenance Accesses. 230. Sheet C302: Turn on stationing along the roadways. 231. Sheet C302: Tie contours along east plat line into existing contours for lS` addition. 2' )2. Sheet 002: Add flow arrows and additional spot elevations for drainage along rear of Lots 2 and 3, Block 7. Revised contours on north part of Lot 2 as marked up. 233. Sheet C302: The rip rap berm overflow for Basin 5P is above the HWL, is that the intent. Other basins are below the HWL. 234. Sheet C' )02: Add additional spot elevations on back sides of lots 2 -5, Block 6. 235. Sheet C302: Label NWL and HWL for Mitigation Areas 1 and 2, and model them. These HWL's could impact LFE's for the adjacent lots. 236. Sheet C302: Add ped ramps to the trail at 168`h Lane and the park parking lot entrance. 237. Sheet C302: Make sure all soil boring locations text is legible and not overlapping other text. 238. Sheet C302: The grades into the park parking lot are way too steep (25 %). Shoot for 8% maximum, but no more than 5% is preferred. 239. Sheet C302: Based upon the Geotechnical Engineer's recommendation, the only Highest Anticipated Water Levels provided for the entire plat are 899, which would require LFE's to be 902 minimum. They do provide anticipated water levels for excavation purposes for other borings, but those are not highest anticipated levels, which are needed to set low floor elevations. 899 may not make complete sense for lots 1 and 2, Block 5, just based upon ground elevations and the wetland to the west, however, without any other information the minimum LFE for these lots needs to be 899. Work with the Geotechnical Engineer to see if they can provide anything different for Block 5 and adjust plans and tables accordingly. 240. Sheet C302: Discuss the roadway profile and drainage with engineering staff. A flat grade is acceptable in areas where there are ditch sections, but not in areas with curb and gutter. In areas with curb and gutter, a minimum grade of 0.5% is required with a crown on centerline. We do not want drainage flowing across the entire roadway for icing and safety reasons. This will also require some storm sewer to be designed along 167`h Avenue NW that could either discharge into Basin 4P or possibly the Mitigation Area 1. Drainage calculations along 167`h Avenue NW will require spread calculations that will be submitted to MnDOT. Keep this in mind when laying out where the proposed storm sewer catch basin locations are. Revise hydrology models accordingly if tributary areas are revised due to added storm sewer and crowned centerline. 241. Sheet C302: Don't taper curb line on west end of 167`h Lane to match the lane line, taper it to match the edge of shoulder. Taper trail at a 10:1 rate into shoulder. 242. Sheet C301 and C302: For all "1 acre lots ", need to show grading required to meet the minimum garage and LFE elevations. Per City Code 11- 3 -6 -B2, items A -E, need to show a minimum 3,600 sf building pad that is corrected, finished pad elevation shall be a minimum of 6' above the Highest Anticipated Water Level, and show primary and secondary septic locations. A septic design/report shall be provided for each lot not served by city sewer. Also need to show driveway location and note that area for driveway needs to be corrected to provide a minimum driveway width of 12' wide at the surface. 243. Sheet C302: Need to make sure that the ditch along the rural portion of 167`h Avenue is a minimum of 2' below the edge of shoulder and that there is positive drainage in the ditch, 2% grade preferred with I% minimum with spot elevations provided. 244. Sheet C302: Need to define the limits of muck excavation along 167`h Avenue. Show the silt fence on the edge of the muck excavation limits. It does not appear that there are recommendations in the soils report for excavation limits, so refer to the MnDOT Road Design and Pavement Manual for typical Swamp Section excavation limits. The determined limits should also include backslopes up from the bottom of the muck out to the excavation limits. It is possible that the calculated limits extend beyond the currently proposed roadway easements and temporary construction easements. If that is the case, additional easements may be required for construction of the 167`h Avenue alignment. 245. Sheet C302: Need to provide ground elevations both north and south of 167`h Avenue so it's clear how the ditches and excavation limits will tie into existing grades. 246.. Sheet C302: Copy Wetland HWL information into the upper plan view (currently in lower plan view only). 247. Sheet 0303: Provide a detail for muck excavation (cross sectional view) along 167`h Avenue. See Figure 320.1 from MnDOT Pavement Design Manual for example. Make sure excavation limits begin from 2' beyond shoulder PI. 248. Sheet C401: Revise hydrant spacing to meet 400' spacing requirement per Minnesota Fire Code and Andover Fire Chief. Suggested locations are marked up, confirm 400' spacing is met. 249. Sheet C401: Label Pond EP data. 250. Sheet C401: Add another CB along the storm sewer run east of 168th Avenue on 167`h Avenue to keep the storm sewer more under the curb line. 251. Sheet C401: Can remove the valve on the north side of the water main tee at Yellow Pine Street and 1691h Avenue. 252. Sheet C401: Extend sanitary sewer to middle of lot 13, Block 4. 253. Sheet C401: There are a few locations where the water main runs parallel to sanitary or storm sewer with less than 10' separation. Need to maintain 10' separation in all locations. 254. Sheet C401: Extend VMA along rear of Lot 12, Block 4 to get to FES. This may change if this FES is moved further west as discussed in previous comments. 255. Sheet C401: Make sure there is a 10' drainage and utility easement along all pipe nets (isn't along run from Basin 2P to west). 256. Sheet C401: Sheet C401: Is a 30" pipe necessary to drain Basin 3P? 257. Sheet C401 and C402: Show in plan view all locations where insulation is proposed for utility crossings. Can use a call out to Note 5. m 258. Sheet C401: Recommend moving mail box cluster locations to grading plan sheets. Also, move them to move mid block locations away from intersections to keep them away from turning vehicles and higher snow banks that often happen at intersections. 259. Sheet C402 and C501: Call out safety aprons on the culvert at Hanson Boulevard. Call it as an 18" culvert until a design is completed. 260. Sheet C402: Put an asterisk by Lots 1, Block 6 and Lot 5, Block 7 referring to the grinder pump note. 261. Sheet C402: Outlet pipe from CBMH 35 to upstream is 0.35% in model and 0.33% in plan, adjust accordingly. 262. Sheet C402: Outlet information for Basin 4P doesn't match the model. 263. Sheet C402: Revise radii at Hanson Boulevard to 30'. 264. Sheet C601: Add a column to the table in detail 418E for Weir Wall Elevation. One of them isn't at the HWL as the drawing shows, so they need to be called out. 265. Sheet C602: Add details for mail box clusters and concrete pads. 266. Additional comments pending further review. The following comments are in regards to Review #2 of the Hydrology Report: 1. For the resubmittal, please bind all hydrology report related items together. 2. Add pond nodes for Mitigation Areas 1 and 2 and determine and label NWL's and HWL's in the plans and summary report. J. For the Pond 2P outlet, flatten the outlet pipe to reduce discharge velocities. 4. For the Pond 3P outlet, is a' 0" pipe necessary for the projected flows? Is the larger pipe to provide an extra factor of safety for an EOF as an EOF isn't clearly labeled in the grading plan? Review and adjust size if warmted. 5. For the Pond 4P outlet, the outlet configuration doesn't match the utility plans. Also the OCS rim isn't set at the HWL for the basin. 6. For the Pond 5P outlet, the 15" orifice in the weir wall is not buildable, the top of the orifice would be above the top of the wall. Also, why use a 15" orifice with a 15" inlet pipe? If there's an issue with rim and invert elevations, you can raise the rim elevation and make the EOF a rip rap overflow offto the side of the OCS. 7. For Pond EP, the 18" outlet pipe is modeled as only 206' long. Model the correct configuration/lengths as shown in the plans to make sure head loss is accounted for, which could impact the HWL of the basin. Also, discuss the outflow results mth engineering staff. It says the 18" culvert controls, which doesn't make sense if the 6" orifice allows less than 1 cfs discharge and nothing overtops the weir wall. Is the outlet configuration set up in series correctly in the model with the 15" pipe into the OCS? 8. Revise the tributary area maps for modeling of the Mitigation Basins as necessary. 9. In the summary report, the combined (Dry) and combined (NWL) discharge rates in the table on page 6 are all the same is the correct? 10. Make stire the LRRWMO reviews the double ring infiltrometer results and approves the use of 3" per hour for infiltration. 11. Provide revised storm sewer calcs and maps based upon provided plan comments. Look at CBMH 23 to FES 24, slope is 12.25% and velocity is 20.8 f/s. Keep below 10 Vs. 12. Additional comments pending fuurther review. Note: It is a requirement that the Developer respond to each of these items in writing (get digital copy from City and type responses below original comment) when re- submitting the revised plat to the City. If you have any questions, feel free to contact Jason Law, Assistant City Engineer at (763) 767 -5130 or Todd Haas, Assistant Director of Public Works at (763) 767 -5131. 5 0 Douglas Nt, Fisrh ?r, PE County Engineer Anoka County TRANSPORTATION DIVISION Highway June 15, 2015 Stephanie Hanson City of Andover 1685 Crosstown Blvd. NW Andover, MN 55304 Re: Sketch Plan - Country Oak North 2nd Addition Dear Stephanie, We have reviewed the sketch plan for County Oaks North 2nd Addition, to be located east of CSAH 78 (Hanson Boulevard) at the proposed 1671h Avenue NW alignment within the City of Andover, and I offer the following comments: The existing right of way adjacent to CSAH 78 is 75 feet west of the CSAH 78 centerline, which should be adequate for future reconstruction purposes. As proposed, all lots will gain access via the local roadway system which is consistent with county policy and acceptable to this department. This development will introduce 85 single family lots, which is considerably higher than the 31 or more lot threshold for turn lane construction. Consequently, the construction of a SB CSAH 78 bypass lane and a NB right turn lane is required to be completed in conjunction with this development at the proposed CSAH 781167th Avenue NW intersection. It appears there are deficiencies for the Case I Intersection Sight Distance requirements at the proposed CSAH 78/1671h Avenue NW intersection, with the obstructions being trees and brush. The City/developer should ensure that the applicable sight distance requirements are met to the fullest extent possible for this development. Please note that no plantings or business signs will be permitted within the county right of way, and care should be exercised when locating signs, buildings, structures, plantings, berms, etc. outside of the county right of way, so as not to create any new sight obstructions for this section of CSAH 78. Any existing driveways or field entrances adjacent to CSAH 78 within the boundaries of this sketch plan are to be removed in conjunction with the development and the ditch section restored to match the existing depth, slope, and grade. The ACHD Engineering Plan Review process will apply to this site. Calculations must be submitted along with a grading and erosion control plan that delineates the drainage areas for this development. The post - developed rate /volume of runoff must not exceed the pre - developed ratelvolume of runoff for the 10 -year, critical design storm. Contact Gina Pizzo, Engineer III (763.862.4248; email: Gina. Pizzo(a�co.anoka.mn.us), for further information and to coordinate the ACHD Engineering Plan Review process.

Following completion of the ACHD Engineering Plan Review process, the ACHD Permit Process can begin. An ACHD Access Permit (fee = $250.00) and an ACHD Permit for Work within the County Right of Way (fee = $150.00) are required and must be obtained prior to the commencement of any construction. License Permit Bonding, method of construction, design details, work zone traffic control, restoration requirements and follow -up inspections are typical elements of the permitting process. Contact Jorge Bernal, Traffic Engineering Technician 1 (763. 862.4224; e-mail: Jorge. BernalDelgadoaa co.anoka.mn.us ), for further information regarding the permit process. ACHD would like to work with local governments in promoting compatibility between land use and the county highway system. It should be recognized that residential land uses located adjacent to County highways often results in complaints about traffic noise. Existing and /or future traffic noise from CSAH 78 could exceed noise standards established by the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA), the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, and the U.S. Department of Transportation. Minnesota Rule 7030.0030 states that municipalities are responsible for taking all reasonable measures to prevent land use activities listed in the MPCA's Noise Area Classification (NAC) where establishment of the land use would result in violations of established noise standards. It is advised that the City and the Developer should assess the noise situation for this development as it is proposed to be located directly adjacent to CSAH 78, and take the level of action deemed necessary to minimize the impact of any highway noise by incorporating the appropriate noise mitigation elements into the design and phasing of this plat as applicable. Thank you for the opportunity to comment. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions regarding this review.
