2.6 The applicant proposes a five to six foot elevation increase from lona Lane to the northern most point of the cul-de-sac, with lookout and walkout lots being graded into the site to match existing contours on the parcel. 2.7 No storm water management pond has been designed for the development. The existing parcel drains to the north, northwest and northeast. Drainage for the parcel upon development is proposed to match existing contours on the northern portion of the parcel and drain in a similar direction. The drainage plan will need to be reviewed by the Rice Creek Watershed and approved by the Roseville Engineering Department. 3.0 STAFF COMMENT: 3.1 To the west of this parcel is halfa dedicated right-of-way (33 feet) that included a water main and three stubs into the subject parcel. The developer should work with the Roseville Engineering Department to determine what needs to be done with the existing utilities. 3.2 The proposed street design dedicating 50-feet of right-of-way for a roadway and 100 feet of right-of-way for a cul-de-sac (turn-around), and developing a 28-foot wide street with an 80-foot wide cul-de-sac is consistent with the City Code. However, staff suggests that a teardrop island be constructed in the middle of the cul-de-sac for added green area and aesthetic appeal. 3.3 A tree preservation plan must be developed with the assistance of the City to preserve those trees deemed appropriate and which is adjacent to the proposed street right-of-way and adjacent the periphery (north, east and west) of the parcel. 3.4 The developer must provide the City with a landscape plan for the teardrop island, street trees, and other landscaping that augments existing vegetation on the parcel. Said plan must be reviewed and approved by the City's landscape architect. 3.5 The proposed grading and drainage plan must be reviewed and approved by the Roseville Engineering Department and the Rice Creek Watershed. 3.6 Utility and drainage easement are required. All interior lots must have a five-foot wide easement and all periphery lots must have a ten-foot wide easement (where no matching easement is available). 3.7 Park dedication for the six-lot development is required and must be in the form of a cash payment in lieu of land dedication amounting to $500.00 per lot or $3,000.00. According to the City Park System Plan no further land is required in this area. Residents have also created a dirt path connecting lona Lane with Mackubin Street (south of Judith Avenue). The Park and Recreation Commission will meet to review and recommend land or the cash in lieu of land dedication and determine what future need exist to permanently connect lona Land with Judith A venue/Mackubin Street. 3.8 The developer must remove the existing house and any debris from the parcel prior to receiving the grading permit.
