Our office last reviewed plans for this development on Februar 13, 2002. The, followin
comments andlor recommendations pertain to the latest revised P lans and draina calculations
( previous coinments still applicable, or meant to serve as a reminder, are.... shown '111 italics"

Grading:
S. A retaining wall up to 13' in height is proposed along the majority of the east side of the site.
A design for this wall, stamped by a registered engineer in the state of Minnesota, will need
to be submitted for our review and approval prior to construction (Landform notes this in
their September 5, 2001 memorandum).
Sanitary Sewer:
6. The plans do indicate to "Coordinate the abandonment of all existing utilities and services
with the city of oak Park Heights ", but we recommend the locations of any existing utilities
be shown on the plans so the city has a record of this data.

7. Verify existing hydrant locations (needfor any new hydrants) and emergency vehicle access
locations /widths with the Fire Department.
�tnr P�xrpr•
8. The revised drainage area map & calculations are acceptable as submitted. The tributary area
was revised /expanded to more accurately reflect the actual existing area tributary to the
existing storm sewer structures on Osgood Avenue. Proposed storm sewer through the
Walgreens parking area has been upsized from 18" to 21" pipe to account for this increase in
tributary storm water runoff.
