CITY OF LAKEVILLE COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES MARCH 5, 2012 Page 3 Item 8 - Crescent Ridge Third Addition Angie Zajac, representing Shamrock Development, requested Council approval of the preliminary plat of Crescent Ridge Third Addition. Mr. Morey presented the proposed preliminary plat, which is located north of 195th Street, east of Holyoke Avenue and south of 190th Street. The Crescent Ridge Third Addition preliminary plat proposes 11 1 single - family lots and one outlot on 47 acres. Crescent Ridge Third Addition revises a portion of the Crescent Ridge Second Addition preliminary plat approved in 2008. Mr. Morey explained that Crescent Ridge Third Addition includes a 22 acre area located on the north side of the subdivision that was brought into the current Metropolitan Urban Service Area (MUSA) last year. Crescent Ridge Third Addition will include the upgrade of 190th Street to a paved rural section from Holyoke Avenue to the east plat boundary and will also include the upgrade of the remaining unpaved portion of 195th Street. A temporary cul -de -sac is required to be constructed at the eastern terminus of 195th Street. The developer must either obtain the required easements from the adjacent property owners to place the temporary cul -de -sac on their property, or pull the cul -de -sac back to the west and place it entirely within the Crescent Ridge plat. This must be completed prior to consideration of the Crescent Ridge Third Addition final plat. Council Member Little asked Mr. Morey to address the traffic concerns on Holyoke Avenue. Mr. Morey stated the City is aware of the safety issues regarding the curves on Holyoke Avenue and the off -set intersection of 190th Street. A traffic study is currently being prepared and will be forwarded to the City Council for review when it is completed. Funding of possible improvements, as well as other factors, need to be examined. In response to Council Member LaBeau's question, Mr. Morey stated that, while it is beyond the developer's responsibility, the City is considering extending the paved portion of 190th Street on the west side of Holyoke Avenue to prevent the gravel from being tracked onto Holyoke Avenue. As discussed at the Planning Commission meeting, Mr. Morey confirmed that Mr. Schweich's triangular shaped property located immediately north of this plat and south of Holyoke Avenue /190th Street is not landlocked but is considered undevelopable due to it being encompassed by a public roadway easement.
