Intersections <br /> <br />(1) Street centerlines shall intersect at not less than 75 degrees. <br /> <br />(2) Street jogs shall be no less than 200’ from centerline to <br />centerline. <br /> <br />(3) Gradients at intersections and for 50’ approaching on each <br />side of an intersection shall not exceed 2%.

Street names shall conform to the pattern of the City and continue <br />an existing name on the same alignment, where determined <br />applicable by the Planning Commission. Street names shall be <br />coordinated with the Crow Wing County Surveyor’s Office. <br /> <br />10. Easements shall be provided for public utilities or drainage where required <br />by the Planning Commission and shall be following widths, minimum: <br /> <br /> Watermain .......................................................................................................20 feet <br /> Sanitary Sewer ................................................................................................40 feet <br /> Storm Sewer ....................................................................................................20 feet <br /> Electrical, telephone or cable television .........................................................10 feet <br /> Drainageway ...................................................................................................10 feet <br /> <br />11. Lots requiring variances to allow their use for the intended purposes or <br />requiring holding tanks for sewage shall not be allowed. <br /> <br /> <br />Staff Recommendation: The City, County and MN/DOT have spent countless <br />hours negotiating the turn back of the local roads that will be impacted by the <br />realignment of State Highway 371. This included the final disposition of the old <br />segment of County Road 112 in the vicinity of the Kennedy property. The City <br />and County had both decided that the road would be obliterated and vacated <br />after the project because neither agency wanted to maintain what would become <br />a dead end road after the project is completed. Without the 33-foot “flag” strip <br />along the westerly line of the Kennedy property, there would be no access to Tract <br />A. <br /> <br />We recommend that Condition Number 2 remain. <br /> <br /> <br />
