The Plat, if <br />approved, would extend County Road E2, providing access to the subject site. The plat would also <br />provide sidewalk, drainage, and utility easements around the periphery of the subject site. Also, a <br />triangular shaped easement would be located at the SW corner of County Road E2 and 5th Avenue NW <br />and is intended to accommodate landscaping and similar streetscape improvements in accordance with <br />the Old Highway 8 Corridor Vision (Sections 8.6, 8.7). The approval of the applicant's proposal is <br />dependent upon approval of the Brighton Corporate Park III Plat. <br />The subject site is part of the former MacGillis & Gibbs lumber treatment yard, the location of both soil <br />and groundwater contamination. The subject site was chosen as the first portion of the former MacGillis <br />& Gibbs site to be redeveloped because it is considered one of the "cleaner" areas. Even though clean up <br />of the contamination is being conducted by the EPA and MnPCA, the western portion of the subject site <br />is still contaminated and remains unbuildable. <br />G:\C D\-98-PC\98-RPTS\LP-336.
