August 8, 2018 Centerville City Council Page 4 of 6 Old Mill Estates-Preliminary Plat and Rezoning c. Extending the sidewalk connection on the east side of Old Mill Road would be preferable. While this too would dead end on the northern boundary of the development, the land to the north is developable and could eventually extend the Old Mill Road sidewalk further north to Peltier Lake in Lino Lakes. A connected sidewalk would allow Old Mill Estates residents to walk south to Main Street, Centerville Road, and Centerville Elementary School. 6) Drainage plan a. Wetlands-The inventory identifies a significant area of wetlands in the northeastern and eastern portions of the development area. A narrow strip of wetland exists in the far northwestern corner and another is in the middle of the site where Street B turns south to connect to Revoir Street. The preliminary plat proposes four areas of wetland fill totaling 13,125 square feet, or 0.3 acres. b. Drainage -The proposed development includes a long narrow stormwater pond in the center of the site to capture runoff throughout the development. A small pond is included in the northwest corner. Drainage swales between each lot direct water away from wetlands and the residential development south of the site. PRELIMINARY PLAT CONCEPTS Developer Todd Christianson came to the Planning & Zoning commission on July 31 with a revised concept plan "Concept B." The Planning and Zoning Commission recommendation resulted in a further revised "Concept C." a. Concept B. i. Trail.A public trail was proposed to connect Street A with Street B for improved pedestrian and bicycle access south to Acorn Creek Park. ii. Private road connection. The private road was revised to connect to Street B rather than terminating in a cul-du-sac as was proposed in Concept A (original submittal) for a continuous connection from Street A to Street B for residents and emergency vehicles. b. Concept C. i. Trail.The public trail proposed in Concept B was extended to follow the east-side of Street B to cross the private road and connect to Acorn Creek Park. ii. Sidewalks. Sidewalks have been added to the south side of Street A, north side of Street B, and the east side of Old Mill Road through the length of the development site. This would connect to the public trail and through to the residential development to the south and Acorn Creek Park. iii. Private road. The private road was revised to be a rpublic street connecting with Street B and terminating in a cul-du-sac rather than connect with Street wfflh r„ �?rnrnunii,/ in rrfirrl
