Re: Preliminary Plat Review - Town Lakes 5th Addition,
County State Aid Highway 19, City of Albertville
Honorable Mayor, City Council Members, & Planning Commission Members:
We have received the preliminary plat for the above mentioned development that
consists of outlots E and D on the east side of County State Aid Highway (CSAH) 19, in
addition to single family lots internal to the plat on the east side of CSAH 19. We have
reviewed the preliminary plat with regard to access and right-of-way issues along CSAH
19 only. Aspects of storm drainage, street improvements, and grading internal to the
plat must be reviewed by the City Engineer for conformance to city standards.
We offer the following comments:
1. Direct access to outlots E and D from CSAH 19 will not be permitted until
such time that there is a raised concrete median along CSAH 19 that
would permit a right-in, right-out access. A single shared right-in, right-
out access, meeting County Access Spacing Requirements, will be
permitted to serve both outlots E and D in the future.
2. All existing field and/or driveway entrances along CSAH 19 within the plat
frontage, shall be removed, as a condition of the access permit.
3. A right-of-way width of 80 feet from the centerline of CSAH 19 is required
and is.shown on the preliminary drawings.
