5. Analysis
The Staff does not foresee any negative impact on the
surrounding neighborhood as the result of this proposal
(see note #2). The Staff does, however, have some
concern about the location of the floodway on the
property as well as the minimum floor elevation of the
proposed structure's foundation (see Engineer
Comments). In addition, the applicant needs to explain
the type of permanent foundation that is proposed.
Finally, the floodway area is shown as priority two
open space on the City's Master Parks Plan.
6. City Engineer Comments
(1) Dedicate the necessary right-of-way for the length
of the property's frontage on Pinnacle Valley Road
(one-half of 90 feet of right-of-way required).
(2) Locate the 100 year floodway line on the property
(site plan).
(3) Show the proposed minimum floor elevation.
(4) Dedicate the floodway to the City (up to a point
five feet south of the barn - then dedicate a
floodway easement from that point north for the
balance of the floodway).
(5) Comply with Stormwater and Detention Ordinance
requirements.
7. Staff Recommendation
Approval, provided the applicant agrees to: (1)
provide the foundation information; (2) comply with
City Engineer Comments numbered 1 through 5; and
(3) submit a revised site plan containing the
aforementioned information.
SUBDIVISION COMMITTEE REVIEW:
The applicant was present and stated that the foundation
would be concrete and concrete block construction. The
applicant asked for an explanation of the Staff's
recommendation regarding the floodway. The Staff explained
the recommendation. The applicant stated that he would talk

information.
