The bank would retain their existin space in the buildin and the second unit would be used for an insurance office. Both units would share the parkin lot and remainin propert in common. The subdivision can be done as a minor subdivision, as found under Section 402.01.G of the Subdivision Ordinance. An amended PUD is also re S & C Bank was approved in December of 2001 as part of the Oak Park Station development. Of that overall development, onl the S & C Bank lot has been g iven g eneral plan approvals and is full constructed. Attached for reference: Exhibit 1: Condominium Plat Exhibit 2: Buildin Interior La Exhibit 3: Memo From Cit Arborist Exhibit 4: Letter From Cit Attorney s ISSUES ANALYSIS Project Information. Since their building was constructed, S & C Bank has been looking for a tenant for the second unit of the structure. An insurance company has expressed interest, but only if the building could be divided and they could purchase the office space. S & C Bank has drawn up the necessary condominium documents that have been reviewed by the City Attorney. Please find his letter as Exhibit 4. His requirements shall be added as conditions to approval of the project. The exterior of the building or site will not be altered as part of this process. A wall is now being constructed that will be surveyed to establish a plat line between the two properties. The office suite will have its own exterior entrance. Minor Subdivision. Once the property is surveyed, the plat can be approved as a minor subdivision. The plat will be subject to approval of the City Administrator and the City Attorney. PUD Amendment. The project was approved in 2001 as a PUD. Any changes to the original approvals require a PUD amendment. The amendment will be processed as part of this request. Parking. The building was compliant with all parking requirements when constructed. The p arking calculations were based upon a bank and office use. No additional parking will be required with this use. The parking and driveway area will be held as a common property for both units of the building. Four stalls, one of which is disability accessible, will be dedicated for use to the insurance office. Si nage. The insurance office will be entitled to a sign at their entrance. All signage shall be subject to submittal of a sign permit and approved by the Budding official in compliance with the Zoning Ordinance. Signage for the insurance office will be added to the existing monument sign. Lighting. When constructed, the building and site was compliant with all site lighting requirements. No changes will be necessary. Landscaping. The City Arborist shall inspect the site in early June to determine the Y conditions of the existing landscaping. The applicant shall be required to replace any landscaping materials that are dead or diseased, subject to the approval of the City Arborist. RECOMMENDATION /CONCLUSION Based upon the preceding review, staff recommends that the minor subdivision and PUD amendment be approved with the following conditions: 2 t 1. The applicant produce either a title opinion or a title commitment or other verification of the status of current title, depicting current fee owner and outstanding liens and encumbrances against the building and property subject to review and approval of the City Attorney. 2. The applicant supply a proper plat or mylars relative to the Common Interest Community #235 that they wish to create, with appropriate places for signatures of current owner and encumbering interest against the property, in addition to the other statutory executions that need to be on that plat. The plat shall be subject to review and approval of the City Administrator and City Attorney. 3. The applicant has informed us that, notwithstanding the condom iniumization of the building, they do not intend to have separate utilities to Unit 101, which is being created by the condominium and minor subdivision application. Thus, a condition of the application will have to be that the fee owner and their successors, heirs and assigns will be directly responsible to the City of Oak Park Heights for payment of all outstanding utilities relative to the property, it being understood that the City will not have to create a separate billing entity or item for Unit 101, within its database, for utility billings. 4. The applicant shall provide a completed, fully executed copy of a Common Interest Community #235 declaration, in substantially the same form as provided to the City, as part of the final permitting, subject to approval of the City Attorney. That document will also have to be amended to reflect that all utility billings for the City of Oak Park Heights will be billed directly to Unit 100, who will then prorate or collect from Unit 101, its fair share of such billings. Not withstanding that process, Unit 100 will be solely and exclusively responsible to the City of Oak Park Heights for payment of all municipal utility billings incurred on the premises. 5. Any changes to the signage shall require submittal of a sign permit, subject to review and approval of the Building Official. 6. The landscaping shall be inspected by the City Arborist in .dune of 2004. Any trees or shrubs that are dead or diseased, as determined by the City Arborist, shall be replaced by the applicant with similar, healthy plant materials subject to review and approval of the City Arborist. 3 t Y STATE HIGHWAY N0. 35 COMMON INTEREST COMMUNITY N 235 This CIC Plat is part of the Declaration Recorded I as Document Number on A C O NDOMINIUM this day of 200_ A.D. t + r ti t s Nick SI�E I I t e �,�� k 58TH ST.t S & C BANK CONDOMINIMUMS - - z Washingto County Recorder h SCAT. \ \ o- SURVEYOR'S CERTIFICATE ,� I, � ' / ' . t ; Daniel L.

The changes to the building are do not require re- submissi internal and on of a landscape plan since no changes to landscaping are anticipated. I have the following comments regarding existing landscaping for this site: 1. A tree in dicated on the landscape plan by the w entrance was not planted, probably due to t placement lacement of an electrical transformer near that site. This tree does not need to be added. 2. Existing landscaping will be inspected in June 2004. If any trees or shrubs declining, such that they are not expected to survive, these plants are dead or decl g� plant material. hould_ _be_ replaced with similar, healthy, Kathy Widin Municipal Arborist City of Oak Park Heights [ Original View, t Compose Folders Address Mailboxes Options Email, Message Lis � � � Get � Help I Sign Out Comcast Home, EXHIBIT 3 Page 1 of http:// mailcenter .comeast.net/wmc /v /wm/lfO57cmd Priat &no= 85 &sid =c0 LAW OFFICES OF Eckberg, Lammers Briggs 'Wolff & Vierling 1835 Northwestern Avenue James F .

O. Box 2007 Oak Park Heights, Minnesota 55082 Re: S &C Bank Application for Minor Subdivision and Condomi Mg Existing Building into 2 Units Dear Mr. Johnson: I have reviewed the application and supporting materials provided by the applicant relative to the above - referenced matter. I have no objection to the City granting the request to condo the S &C Bank building, subject to the following requirements: 1. That the applicant produce either a title opinion or a title commitment or other verification of the status of current title, depicting current fee owner and outstanding liens and encumbrances against the building and property. 2. That the applicant supply a proper plat or mylars relative to the Common Interest Community #235 that they wish to create, with appropriate places for signatures of current owner and encumbering interest against the property, in addition to the other statutory executions that need to be on that plat. 3. The applicant has informed us that, notwithstanding the condo ion of the building, they do not intend to have separate utilities to Unit 101, which is being created by the condominium and minor subdivision application. Thus, a condition of the application will EXHIBIT 4 Mr. Eric Johnson January 29, 2004 Page 2 have to be that the fee owner and their successors, heirs and assigns will be directly responsible to the City of Oak Park Heights for payment of all outstanding utilities relative to the property, it being understood that the City will not have to create a separate billing entity or item for Unit 101, within its database, for utility billings. 4. I have reviewed the proposed draft of a Common Interest Community #235 declaration. We will require that a completed copy of that document, in substantially the same form as provided, be fully executed with a copy provided to the City as part of the final permitting in this process. That document will also have to be amended to reflect that all utility billings for the City of Oak Park Heights will be billed directly to Unit 100, who will then prorate or collect from Unit 101, its fair share of such billings. Not withstanding that process, Unit 100 will be solely and exclusively responsible to the City of Oak Park Heights for payment of all municipal utility billings incurred on the premises. If you have any fiu questions with regard to this matter, please feel free to contact me directly. Yours very truly, Mark J. Vierling 1VIJV /mlcr cc: Scott Richards, City Planner David Anastasi, Esq. , r ENCL OW NORTHWEST ASSOCIATED CONSULTANTS, INC. 5775 Wayzata Boulevard, Suite 555, St. Louis Park, MN 55416 Telephone: 952.595.9636 Facsimile: 952.595.9837 planners@nacplanning.com nacplanning.com MEMORANDUM TO: Eric Johnson FROM: Cynthia Putz -Yang / Scott Richards DATE: February 5, 2004 RE: Oak Park Heights — Oakgreen Village South — PUD Concept Plan FILE NO: 798.02 — 03.15 BACKGROUND Application. Valley Senior Services Alliance (VSSA) is requesting City approval of a PUD p concept Ian for the area west of Oakgreen Avenue and south of 58 Street. The subject site is 6.4 acres. The project is called Oakgreen Village South and includes 37 two -story townhomes. The property is guided Park Facilities /Open Space in the Comprehensive Plan and is zoned O, Open Space Conservation. The applicant has held a neighborhood meeting regarding this application. Future Applications. If the concept plan is approved, the next step would be for the applicant to request the following approvals: • Comprehensive Plan amendment changing the guided land use from Park Facilities /Open Space to Medium Density Residential and revising text for Planning District 11 • Zoning District amendment rezoning from O, Open Space Conservation to R -2, Low & Medium Density Residential • PUD /CUP General Plan of Development Parks Commission. The City has the option of purchasing the southern 150 feet of the property. This option is included in a development agreement with the applicant. The 40 City's Park and Trail Plan shows a proposed trail extending through this strip of land. On January 26, 2004, the Parks Commission voted to recommend that the City purchase and preserve this portion of the property as a buffer and open space for the City. The Parks Commission recommends that the land be purchased with park dedication money from the Oakgreen North development. If the City Council concurs with this recommendation, the proposed project should be rejected, and the applicant should reapply for development of only the triangular area north of the 150 -foot strip. Adjacent Uses. Uses adjacent to the subject site are listed below: North of the Site: Oakgreen Village North Townhome Development South of the Site: River Hills Single Family Home Neighborhood West of the Site: Boutwell's Landing Development East of the Site: Oakgreen Avenue and Single Family Homes Attached for reference: Exhibit 1: Site Plan Exhibit 2: Existing Conditions Exhibit 3: Grading and Drainage Plan Exhibit 4: Utility Plan Exhibit 5: Building Elevation Exhibit 6: Letter from Applicant Exhibit 7: City Engineer's Letter dated January 27, 2004 ISSUES ANALYSIS Comprehensive Plan. The 1998 Comprehensive Plan designates this area south of 58 Street and west of Oakgreen as Park Facilities /Open Space. In order for the property to be developed as proposed, this designation would need to be changed to Medium Density Residential. In the Comprehensive Plan, the property is located in Neighborhood Planning District 11. The subject area is discussed in the following paragraph of the Comprehensive Plan: "The district [Planning District 11 ] is well accessed by Highway 36, Norell Avenue, Oakgreen Avenue, and 58 Street. The extension of 58 Street between Norell and Oakgreen Avenue is projected for completion in 1999. The area remaining after installation of 58 Street south to the River Hills neighborhood is planned as park facilities /open space. The City will maintain this area as a lineal park and the location of the 58 Street trail connection to Oakgreen Avenue. The local street system through the first phase of the Valley Senior Service Alliance project is also projected for 1999." The preceding text will need to be revised if the City decides not to purchase the 150 - foot strip and the proposed project goes forward. 2 t ' The City has both goals that encourage residential growth and diversity and that encourage the protection of natural resources and open space. These goals are listed below: Encourage continued but orderly and diverse growth in Oak Park Heights. Provide a diversity of land use opportunities within the City to ensure a wide range of employment and consumer options, as well as housing choices. Protect Oak Park Heights' natural resources. • Maintain and improve a safe, viable, orderly, productive and enhanced environment for all residents of the community. The following Comprehensive Plan policies may also be applicable: • Protect low density residential neighborhoods from encroachment or intrusion of incompatible higher use or density types and by adequate buffering and separation from other residential as well as non - residential use categories. • Recognize the development of patio homes, townhouses, quadraminiums and condominiums to supplement existing conventional single family homes, and apartments, giving due consideration to local market demands. Zoning. The property is currently zoned O, Open Space Conservation. To allow townhomes, the applicant will need to apply for rezoning to R -2, Low & Medium Density Residential with the general plan of development. Townhouses are a conditional use in the R -2 District, so application for a conditional use permit will also need to be made. Building Design /Market. A building elevation has been submitted. The proposed architecture is consistent with the buildings in Oakgreen Village North. The applicant has indicated that half of the units will have two bedrooms and the other half will have three bedrooms. The units range in size from 1400 to 1800 square feet. The homes will be for sale with a market price ranging between $175,000 and $225,000. Density. Townhome projects are required to have a minimum of 4,000 square feet of lot area per unit. The proposed project includes 37 units and 279,510 square feet; therefore, there is 7,554 square feet of lot area per unit. Setbacks. Within the PUD, the base district setback requirements (R -2) are applied only to the perimeter of the project. The setback requirements are 30 feet for the front yard, 30 feet for the side yard abutting a street, 10 feet for interior side yards, and 30 feet for the rear yard. These minimums are exceeded in the proposed layout. The PUD section of the Zoning Ordinance specifies that buildings should be located at least 20 is feet from the back of the curb line from roadways that are part of the internal street pattern. Additionally, the ordinance specifies that no building within the project shall be 3 nearer to another building by one -half the sum of the building heights of the two buildings. The project complies with these requirements. Construction Schedule. The applicant has indicated that construction of one building would begin shortly after all City approvals are in place. Additional buildings would be constructed as units are sold. It is possible that the project would extend over two construction seasons. Accesses. The City Engineer notes that the proposed driveway access locations are located correctly across from the proposed street access locations for Oakgreen Village North. The City Engineer also notes that the adjacent lot at the corner of 58 Street N. and Oakgreen Avenue N. will likely be developed in the near future. He notes that direct access for this lot to either roadway is not recommended due to its proximity to the intersection. He recommends access to this lot utilize the proposed easterly access to 58 St. N. from the Oakgreen Village South development. The design /layout of this development should account for such future access. Sidewalks. The applicant is proposing sidewalks adjacent to the townhomes. These proposed sidewalks must connect to the existing sidewalks along 58 Street North and Oakgreen Avenue. The proposed sidewalks need to be coordinated with the proposed grading and drainage plan. The site plan illustrates a sidewalk on the north side of the townhomes closest to 58 Street North; however, the grading plan illustrates a pond in that location. Parking. Two enclosed parking spaces per unit are required. Parking for the units is accommodated in two -car attached garages with driveways providing overflow parking area. Ten guest parking stalls are also proposed near the center of the property. These p arking stalls must be screened and landscaped from 58 Street North. Grading, Drainage, and Utilities. A grading and drainage plan, as well as a utility plan, have been submitted. The City Engineer has provided comments, which are attached in Exhibit 7. Park Dedication. Park dedication requirements will be addressed with the general plan of development. The size of the development will affect the amount of dedication required. Lighting, Signage, Landscaping, and Tree Preservations Detailed plans are required with the general plan of development. Development Contract. The applicant will be required to enter into a development contract with the City should approval of the concept plan and general plan of development be granted. As part of the contract, the provisions for street and utility construction would be included. The contract would specify conditions of approval. 4 T RECOMMENDATION The City Council needs to decide whether to purchase the 150 -foot strip along the south property line. The Parks Commission has recommended in favor of this purchase. If the City Council agrees, the submitted concept plan should be rejected and the applicant should resubmit with a revised application that excludes that 150 -foot strip. On the Other hand, if the submitted concept plan is viewed favorably, we recommend the following list of conditions of approval: 1. The applicant must apply for a Comprehensive Plan amendment to change the guided land use from Park Facilities /Open Space to Medium Density Residential and to revise the text for Planning District 11. 2. The applicant must apply for a zoning district amendment to change the zoning from O, Open Space Conservation to R -2, Low & Medium Density Residential. 3. The applicant must apply for PUD /CUP General Plan of Development. 4. The design /layout of the development must allow for future access from the adjacent lot at the corner of 58 Street N. and Oakgreen Avenue N. to utilize the proposed easterly access to 58 Street N. 5. Proposed sidewalks must connect to existing sidewalks along 58 Street North and Oakgreen Avenue. The proposed sidewalks need to be coordinated with the proposed grading and drainage plan. 6. Guest arkin stalls must be screened and landscaped from 58 Street North. p g 7. Access, grading, drainage, and utility issues are subject to City Engineer review and approval and must comply with the City Engineer's Letter dated January 27, 2004. 8. Detailed lighting, signage, landscaping, and tree preservation plans are required with the general plan of development. 9. Any other information required by City staff, Planning Commission, Parks Commission, and City Council. 5 ! s k I I �' i � I � � i i•..._ Jf YY •S. 9 36.1 # W.S.E. — 1 i E i i 936. !

Building placement and site grading will maximize a vegetation buffer to the south of the new homes and adjacent to the homes on 56 Street. Existing trees will be evaluated to retain those of quality, inferior vegetation will be removed and new trees will be planted to provide appropriate screening between buildings. All site drainage will be directed to run between the new buildings in a northerly direction to a small pond adjacent to 5 8 Street, and then under 5 8 Street to the exiting wetland. The homes will range in size from 1400 square feet to 1800 square feet. Homes will be for sale with a market price ranging between $175,000 and $225,000. All units will have two -car attached garages, parking space in the driveways plus 10 visitor parking spaces. An aerial photo has been provided with our application material. Upon approval of the Concept Plan we will conduct the required tree inventory. The total area included in this application is 279,5 10 square feet. The 3 7 homes will cover 70,310 square feet. This area includes the building footprint, decks and adjacent sidewalks. Driveways and guest parking occupy 58,200 square feet. The remaining area of common space, including sidewalks is 151,000 square feet. Since these homes will be offered for sale, we anticipate that construction of one building would begin shortly after all city approvals are in place. Additional buildings will be constructed as units are sold. It is possible that the total project will extend over two construction seasons. Maintenance of common areas and building exteriors will be handled by an association. Appropriate documents will be completed upon approval of the project.

Mr. Eric Johnson, Administrator City of Oak Park Heights 14168 Oak Park Blvd., P. 0. Box 2007 Oak Park Heights, MN 55082-2007 Re: Oakgreen Village South Concept Plan Review BR.A. File No. 55 -03 -000 Dear Eric: We have reviewed the concept development plans for the proposed Oakgreen Village South development as submitted by Folz, Freeman, Erickson, Inc. and have the following comments /recommendations for your consideration: Site Layout/Access Locations: 1. The proposed driveway access locations are located correctly across from the proposed street access locations for Oakgreen Village North. 2. The adjacent lot to the northeast of this development (southwest coiner of 5 8 th Street N. and Oakgreen Avenue N.) will most likely be developing in the near future. Direct access for this lot to either roadway is not recommended due to its proximity to the intersection. We recommend access to this lot utilize the proposed easterly access to 58 St. N. from this development. The design/layout of this development should account for such future access. Grading & Drainage /Storm Sewer: 3. Storm water runoff from the majority of this development will be tributary to one internal pond that drains to the existing pond/wetland on the north side of 58 Street N. As such, formal review /approval will be needed from the MSC -WMO prior to general plan submittal. 4. Storm sewers structures outletting to ponds /wetlands shall be constructed with sumps for sediment and debris removal, for both public and private systems. 5. Storm water runoff and ponding calculations will be required as part of the general plan submittal, to verify adequate pond storage capacities and ultimate offsite discharge rates. 6. A detailed sediment and erosion control plan needs to be included as part of the general plan submittal, as it pertains to the grading and private storm sewer construction activities. 7. Show storm sewer pipe material, slopes and structure rim & invert elevations with general plan submittal. EXHIBIT 7 2335 West Highway 36 a St. Paul, MN 55113 ■ 651 - 636-4600 a Fax: 651 - 636 -1311 8. Is the new outlet structure over the existing pipe /flared end section going to be an open - grated structure (beehive casting) or a solid lid? Sanitary Sewer: 9. Provide an 8" stub to the east out of MH -1 for future service to the lot to the east. 10. The jacked section of sanitary ewer under 58 Street N. shall be encased in a steel carrier y pipe. Verify with the Public Works Director whether this section of sanitary sewer (from the manhole on the north side of 58 Street N. to MH -1) will be considered public. If so, easements will be required encompassing these portions of the sanitary sewer. All other internal sanitary sewer will be privately owned and maintained. Water Main: 11. A 1 copper water service and curb box was installed to the lot to the east as part of the 58 Street N. improvements. However, we recommend an 8". stub be provided to this lot from this development (either from the west or from the south) for future service. 12. The jacked sections of water main under 58 Street N. shall be encased in steel carrier pipes. Verify with the Public Works Director whether these sections of water main under 58 Street N. will be considered public. If so, easements will be required encompassing these portions of the water main. All other internal water main will be privately. owned and maintained. 13. Connections to the existing 12" trunk water main shall be via wet taps. 14. Verify a potential grade conflict with the proposed easterly 8" water main jacking and the existing 21" RCP storm sewer in 58 Street N. 15. We recommend off - setting the hydrant at the eastern -most end of the project (at the end of the driveway by the triplex) and plugging the tee to the east. This will allow for future extension/looping of this water main to a future 12" main line along Oakgreen Avenue N. 16. The water main layout, in general, is acceptable: The overall alignment, hydrant locations and main line valve locations (none are shown) should be reviewed with the City Public Works Director , and Fire Department. Valves should be strategically located to minimize numbers of units without water service should maintenance /replacement ever be needed. 17. Fire hydrants shall incorporate an AFC - Waterous Storz Nozzle. The hydrant pumper nozzle shall be of one -piece design, compatible with a 5" Storz hose coupling. The nozzle shall be an integral part of the fire hydrants and must be furnished by the manufacturer or authorized distributor designated by the manufacturer. Storz adapters will not be accepted. 18. We recommend * any close water main /services and storm sewer crossings be insulated. Miscellaneous: 19. Include a tree inventory /plan indicating the limits and numbers of trees on site, specifically those, if any, that will be preserved along the southerly limits of the site.

The issues and g eneral discussion from the workshop related to Oak Villa is as follows. Densit The Cit Council was presented with a report dated Februar 4, 2004 from our office providin densit calculations for the development based upon the Zoni Ordinance re The Oak Villa development is compliant with the densit but is at the maximum for the Outlot E area and about to the maximum for the Outlot B area. In reviewin the plans, the Cit Council su some units closest to the ri wa could be eliminated to reduce the densit and provide more separation between the buildin and street. It was su at a minimum, that the end "B" unit in Block 5, the "D" unit in Block 6 be eliminated and that the three north "C" units in Block 2 be eliminated or reconfi to be further from Novak Avenue. Additional densit reductions in this area b the applicant would be encoura b the Cit Council. The Cit Council based their discussion on the concerns raised b both the Plannin Commission and Parks Commission related to the densit of the development. As part of PUD approvals, the Cit has the ri to set a development densit less than the Zonin Ordinance re Street Li The Cit Council was favorable to standard Cit street li for the Oak Villa North development. The Cit would accept all maintenance and operational costs of the li once it has been installed b the applicant and turned over to the City. Traffic. The City Council, based upon the City Engineer comments, was satisfied with the traffic count information provided by the applicant. They also were favorable to the City Engineer's comments related to the turn lanes required for Novak and Nutmeg Avenues, and the separation distance shown on the plans between Oakgreen and Nutmeg Avenues. Street Parking. The City Council favored allowing parking on only one side of Nutmeg Avenue. No parking would be allowed on the outside or north /east side of Nutmeg. The no parking signs would be required of the applicant as part of the street construction. Grading /Drainage. In that the grading area is significantly larger than the first phase of development, the applicant will be required to seed and provide appropriate erosion control devices over the entire area that is to be disturbed. The City Council was not favorable to leaving large areas of exposed yard for an extended period of time. Trails. The City Council discussed the need to have the applicant place all of the internal trails on their property. This would include the trail on 58 Street. All liability and maintenance of these trails will be the responsibility of the developer and subsequent ownership. Plat. The plat will need to be revised to address issues with the trails, as indicated above, as well as to add the additional right -of -way required by the City Engineer for Oakgreen Avenue and for turn lanes on Novak and Nutmeg Avenues. The plat and all diagrams need to be revised to include the current street names. The ownership /right- of -way issue for that area at the corner of Novak and Nutmeg Avenues must be addressed in the plans. Project Quality. The quality of the project and construction is of importance to the City. The City Council wants to assure that high quality materials and design, consistent with the CBD Design Guidelines, is applied in this project. pc: Mark Vierling r N ' Bones troo C. Rosene Intermoffil M- emo MA=odaUs An&Ok Ard*ec To: Dennis Postler From: Shelly Johnson Date-so 2/6/2004 Re: Oakgreen Village Trip Generation. Project loo. 55-004 -000 I have reviewed the vehicle trip generation data provided on the attached site plan. The daily trip rates utilized were from the ITE Report titled Trip Generation, a Edition, 199 1. There is a newer version of ITE, Trip Generation. It is the 7 published in 2003. The newer average trip rates are just slightly higher the trip rates in the a Edition. The townhouse daily rates are 5.86 trips/dwelling unit compared to 5.8 used on the site plan. The apartment daily trip rates are 6.72 tips/dwellings unit compared to 6.5 used on the site plan. The total e d daily trips, using the more recent dates, is 1,115 compared to 1,090 on the site plan. The increase m inconsequential xn terms of impacts. It would seem to me that a traffic analysis needs to be prepared for all of the 09q;reen Village development -- an analysis that includes daily and peak hour trip projections and level of service analysis of the roadways and intersections. Such an analysis will provide a better understanding of the f duce trips geen►erated by Oakgreen (all its phases), and adjacent undeveloped property should be included. Such an area study needs to consider the future roadway changes along TH 360 Another issue you wished addressed is the location of the easterly access to 5 e Street to /from the Oakgreen South development. This access is shown approximately 300 feet west of Oakgreen Avenue. Discussion was previously held regarding this access -- it was previously located closer to Oakgreen Avenue. It has been moved as close to the pond as possible. we feel it is necessary to have the two access points (Novak and Nutmeg Avenues) to 58 Street for this residential development. while we would have liked to maa�ino�ize the access separation to 400 or 500 feet, we believe the access located at 300 feet will not create any serious traffic operation problems.
