5.27 Target is also working with the private property owners to vacate/eliminate and/or relocate certain portions of the existing private access easements along the western portion of the property. This easement currently provides the office building and Perkins with their legal access from County Road B and Commerce Street. 5.28 The Development Review Committee has reviewed the PUBLIC EASEMENT VACATION request and concludes that the vacation of 10 roadway easements for State Farm Road and its subsequent elimination; the vacation of the pathway easement in the southeast corner of the State Farm site; the vacation and relocation of the western sanitary sewer and its easement; and the vacation and relocation of the western watermain and its easement, will not adversely impact adjacent and/or contiguous properties. 5.29 The Development Review Committee further concludes that the proposed elimination of State Farm Road and a single parking lot access may create a slight inconvenience for employees and patrons of the Department of Education. However, it does not adversely impact the use of the parking lot or the ability to gain public access to County Road B. The parking lot will continue to have one access to Commerce Street, directly across the building it serves, and one access to Pascal Street. 5.30 The Development Review Committee supports the relocation of a sanitary sewer and watermain on the western portion of the Target site and the creation of new easements associated with the public utility relocation. The Public Works and Community Development Departments will work with Target Corporation to complete the legal documents necessary for recording with Ramsey County to complete the EASEMENT VACATION process. 6.0 OTHER INFORMATION (not a component of approval process): 6.1 The proposed Target reconstruction is designed as a stand-alone 182,882 sq. ft. building and the restaurant/retail site is designed as a 7,500 sq. ft. building. The proposed redevelopment of these sites will require Target Corporation and any subsequent developers/land owners (Lot 2) to submit plans to the Community Development Department for review by the Development Review Committee consistent with Section 1005, specific to the General Business District and Section 1010, specific to all applicable design standards. 6.2 Sanitary sewer and watermain are provided to the Target via Commerce Street and County Road B. However, these utilities must be properly sized and if necessary replaced to accommodate the new multi-use structure. A final utility plan must be submitted for review and approval to the Public Works Departmentthat indicates the location of the properly sized sanitary sewer and water stubs. 6.3 The site is generally flat, with the grade change occurring along the west side of the property. The proposed improvements (storm water managementplan/drainage plan) require the review and approval of the Rice Creek Watershed and the Roseville Public Works Department.
