LARKIN, HOFFMAN, DALY & LINDGREN, L TO. Mr. Steven R. Sarkozy Thomas M. Scott, Esq. May 28, 1999 Page 14 . Efficts regarding traffic conditions on nearby roadways Snelling Avenue and County Road B will experience only a 2 to 3% increase in their daily volwnes following completion of the Cub store. This ~ll not cause any significant change in traffic operations along those roadways. No direct vehicular access will be provided to the Cub store from any local street. (See also proposed non-access easement discussed below.) In addition, existing signs inform motorists that local streets do not provide access to the Har Mar Mall. Therefore, Cub customers from outside the immediate neighborhood will not use local streets to access the Cub store. . Adequacy of traffic circulation on east side of Har Mar Mall The existing conditions on the east side of Har Mar Mall have several limitations in terms of convenience and safety of traffic movements and potential vehicle and pedestrian conflicts. Benshoof developed and recommended an improvement plan (Figure 2 of Exhibit F) that will provide substantial improvements for existing users ofHar Mar Mall and will effectively and safely accommodate motorists traveling to and from the new Cub store. Bradley and Cub Foods propose to implement Benshoof s recommended improvement plan concurrent with construction of the proposed Cub Foods store. . Adequacy of traffic operations at the entrance to andfrom Snelling Avenue Benshoof identified several limitations with the existing entrance to and from Snelling, particularly during evening hours when both the theater and the Ground Round restaurant are busy. Benshoof developed a recommended improvement plan (see Figure 3 of Exhibit F) for the entrance to and from Snelling Avenue. This design will more effectively serve existing users of the Har Mar Mall and will provide safe and efficient access for the new Cub Foods store. Bradley and Cub Foods have reviewed the Benshoof improvement plan and propose to implem~nt it concurrent with construction of the new Cub Foods store. . Adequacy of operations for trucks Careful attention has been paid both to the routing of trucks to and from the store and to the design of the truck delivery area. The entrance and exit routes that have been established for trucks will avoid any significant impacts to users of the Har Mar Mall. The enclosed loading docks and other layout features of the truck delivery area effectively accommodate truck maneuvers and provide sufficient space so that trucks will not interfere with nearby traffic circulation.
