• • 8.5 The remaining utilities, such as electricity, cable, telephone, and natural gas, will be designed and coordinated through the Public Works Department to be underground, and utilize a joint trenching system where applicable. 8.6 It has not yet been determined whether the main access road, or portions thereof, would be dedicated as a public right-of-way. The funding mechanism for this public and private access point also is yet to be determined. 8.7 A traffic analysis of the site was conducted by a registered Professional Engineer (P.E.). This analysis (attached) concludes that approximately 160 vehicles will enter and e�it the site each day with no more than 6 vehicles entering or exiting the development during either the a.m. or p.m. peak traffic hours. The City Engineer has concluded that the existing public road system is more than adequate for absorbing this level of traffic. 9.0 PARK LAND 9.1 Because the property is required to be "replatted," park dedication may be required consistent with State Statutes 462358 and § 1] 03.07 of the Roseville City Code. 10.0 STAFF COMMENTS: 10.1 On March 6, 2007, the Parks and Recreation Commission discussed the application (see attached minutes). While the Commission did not make any formal recommendation to either support or oppose the plan, they did stress their position that any development in this area adhere to the Langton Lake Park Master Plan. The Parks and Recreation Commission revisited the issue at their May 1 meeting, but took no further action at that meeting. It is anticipated that the Parks and Recreation Commission will review the current site plan at their upcoming meeting on June 5. 10.2 On March 7, 2007 the Planning Commission considered an two earlier iterations of this application (see attached minutes). The general consensus of the Planning Commission at that time was that the proposed use was acceptable, but that a solution to park access would be necessary before their final consideration. 10.3 On March 28, 2007 the Development Review Committee (DRC) met to review the proposal submitted by United Properties. The DRC concluded that in "concept" the submittal to redevelop the subject property into a age-restricted cooperative housing development is appropriate and not inconsistent with the Roseville Comprehensive Lane Use Plan. The DRC withheld approval of the plan, however, in order to seek further clarification on the omission of a park access road as identified in the 1986 "Langton Lake Park Master Plan" (attached). The developer responded that they did not include the access road for two primary reasons: 1) the presence of wetland areas in the proposed park access areas, and ; 2) their conclusion that dedicating the property for park access (as shown in the 1986 "Langton Lake Park Master Plan") resulted in financial infeasibility of the project due to removal of developable area. In their response to the DRC, the developer asserted their opinion that there would be other "less impactful approaches," that would allow them to feasibly develop the site while providing the PF07-00G_RPCA_0G0607 Page 6 of 8
