It is <br />our understanding that you are proposing a two-story office building on that site. Ramsey County <br />has the following comments regarding access Ilnd traffic flow for the site plan. <br /> <br />~ <br /> <br />i. Both Cleveland Avenue and County Road D are county roadways under the jurisdiction of <br />Ramsey County. The traffic count on County Road D is 9450 vehicles per day. The traffic <br />count on Cleveland Avenue is 4400 vehicles per day. These are 2001 traffic counts taken by <br />Ramsey County Public Works. Additional traffic generated by this development should not <br />have a detrimental impact on the county road system. <br /> <br />2. Two Ilccess points are proposed for the site, one on County Road D and one on Cleveland <br />Avenue. The access point on Cleveland A venue should be located as far north on the <br />property as possible and the access on County Road D should be located as far east on the <br />property as possible. This will provide the maximum separation between the driveways and <br />tbe intersection. It is my understanding that the City has requested placement of the building <br />in this configuration in order to provide a buffer to the residential properties to the east. <br />Based on the proposed location of the building the access on County Road D is only 95 feet <br />east of Cleveland Avenue. While this is within county standards for driveway placement it <br />will make left turns into and out of the site ClI,tremely difficult at peak hours of the day. <br /> <br />3_ Minimum driveway width is 26 feet on Counry right of way. The driveway width can narrow <br />down to 24 feet at the property line. <br /> <br />4. Permits from Ramsey County will be required for all work: in the County right-of-way. This <br />includes access and utility permits. <br /> <br />~ <br /> <br />Mhmeoota'.
