Response: This item is being coordinated with City staff. It is the applicant's preference to have the trail segment installed on the south side of Fairview. 2. Park Dedication Fees will apply. Response: Comment noted. Traffic/Roadways 1. A traffic study is required to determine if area roadways can accommodate the traffic produced by the development. A draft study has been submitted and reviewed by area road authorities. These authorities have given feedback as to additional information that should be factored into the study and other various items which the study should examine. Once a revised study is available, we will be able to give more comments on this issue. Response: An updated traffic study was provided to the area road authorities on April 22, 2022. 2. If there are structural changes to area roads needed to mitigate traffic impacts, the costs of those shall be borne by the developer. The city, however, may find that proposed structural changes have adverse effects on access to property that are unacceptable. This finding may render the development untenable. The city is ready to work with the developer and surrounding agencies to find solutions to traffic impacts which do not adversely affect land use. Response: We will continue to coordinate this item with the City and surrounding agencies. 3. The Draft Study's conclusions that there are no significant impacts to area intersection performance is largely based on the timing of incoming and outgoing trips to the facility. The study and project narrative suggest that these trips do not occur during peak traffic hours. Therefore, the Conditional Use Permit (CUP) should include provisions which restrict the amount of outgoing and incoming vehicle trips during peak AM and PM traffic hours to ensure future changes to business practices and/or tenants continue with this same mode of operation. Response: We will continue to coordinate this item with the City and surrounding agencies. Lighting 1. All fixtures shall be downcast type and may require shielding on sides facing residential areas (west -facing). Newer LED fixtures produce a whiter light and even with downcast fixtures and lumen levels at the edges of the property within accepted norms, the city has received complaints from neighbors. The property owner will be required to abate these nuisances. Ryan Companies US, Inc. 533 South Third Street, Suite 100 Minneapolis, Minnesota 55415 ph:612-492-4000 ryancompanies.com
