Jim:
The original plans I received and previously commented on were dated March
23, 2001. I have not seen any updated plans since our Site Plan Review
Meeting on March 28, 2001 - at which time comments were provided by myself
and other staff members.
My only specific comment was to lower the curb and gutter to 941.50
(immediately east of the proposed trash receptacle enclosure area) and
overland drainage route for storm water to enter the proposed pond from the
internal parking area in large storm events.
A letter dated April 18, 2001 from the Lower St. Croix Valley Watershed
District (LSCVWD), formerly known as the Valley Branch Watershed District,
lists 14 conditions imposed on DDD, LLC. Most of these conditions are
general in nature (erosion control, seeding, rip rap, attempt to maximize
green space and infiltration, etc....), however two of these conditions
should be noted. These are:
7. The LSCVWD indicates the ponding area, all ditches and storm sewers
should be covered by drainage easements granted to the City of OPH and
therefore, the City's responsibility for maintenance. I agree with this in
respect to the pond and ditch areas, however the internal storm sewer should
remain privately owned and maintained. The ditches are most likely covered
by the Memorial Avenue and 55th Street right -of -ways and site perimeter
drainage and utility easements. The pond will require a drainage easement
encompassing the 100 -year High Water Level of 940.3.
14. The LSCVWD has specific comments /requirements regarding
modifications to the pond outlet structure. These comments need to be
incorporated on the final plans.
And lastly, does anyone remember the comments at the Council Meeting this
site was discussed at ?? What was the final outcome of the Phasing of this
development ?? The Mayor and/or Councilmembers had comments/suggestions
regarding phasing the parking area(s) and curb and gutter, etc

Good Morning All,
DDDLLC is requesting a Building Permit to start their
project. I would appreciate a reply from everyone regarding this project

Thank you,
