Pequot Lakes - Hwy 371 North August 21, 2005 Page 13 of 14 We are awaiting feedback from MnDOT on what they will require from the City on a sanitary sewer such as this. Depending on its condition, the City may want to upgrade the sanitary sewer at the time of this project. 45. There is a City watermain about 15 feet (this is an estimated dimension) within and paralleling the east R/W line of TH 371. This watermain comes down from Front Street for about 600 feet to Sibley Street next to the UBC (1960's vintage).

We are awaiting feedback from MnDOT on what they will require from the City on an older watermain such as this. Depending on its condition, the City may want to upgrade the watermain at the time of this project. 46. As a part of this project, MnDOT will handle the highway storm drainage as well as storm sewers presently connected to the storm sewer system within the TH 371 R/W. The City can partner with MnDOT during this construction project to pay for slightly larger storm sewer pipe and stormwater infiltration basin volume to account for additional City storm drainage brought into this system. The City does want to cooperate with MnDOT on providing for(future)storm sewer to more areas of the City and paying for a little more capacity in the highway system. Jokela Street - North City Limits {1.1 miles} 47. MnDOT has reviewed and found no viable alternative to having the CSAH 17/Front Street full access intersection on a curve on the highway. 48. The City is very concerned about the safety issues related to a right in-right out access proposed for the Roger Langenbaugh property(north of CSAH 17 on west side) due to the expected industrial truck traffic that will continue out of and into this property. Semi-trucks leaving this property and wanting to head north would either try and make a U- CADocuments and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\OLKB\082105 Overall List of Issues-memo.doc
