Analysis The proposed multifamily project is almost entirely surrounded by single family development. It is advisable that notification be given. The site plan Shows a 5' setback adjacent to Lots 42-45 in Echo Valley Park Addition. Buffers between single family and multifamily developments must be at least 25', except where drives are proposed into a 40' area. Staff feels that a cross-section through the site at this location will provide more information indicating the building to land relationship. More clarification is needed as to the nature of Claremore Drive. A plat should be submitted, indicating abutting ownerships and providing insight as to where the road ends. The appropriate dedication as determined by the City Engineer should be shown. E. Staff Recommendation Approval, subject to comments made. SUBDIVISION COMMITTEE REVIEW: The Committee reviewed the application and required that the applicant should notify only those property owners bordering Claremore, submit a plat giving more information on the source, dedication and abutting owners of Claremore, and conform to the setback requirements. The applicant explained that the setbacks were the result of the grades. It was pointed out by Engineering that the Traffic Department was concerned about the continuation of Claremore and the resulting intersection. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: The applicant was present. Staff reported that the only remaining issue involved the exact location of improvements in the right-of-way and the amount of right-of-way to be dedicated. Mr. Herbert Rule represented the developer and requested modification of the plat so that the entrance road would be developed as a 22-font street with concrete headers, since they discovered some dedicated right-of-way to the south of the property line instead of the originally proposed 13 1/2-foot street. Engineerinq agreed to this if there was no drainage problems. March 13, 1984 SUBDIVISIONS Item No. 9 - Continued A resident currently residing on Claremore requested that an additional 25' (left by a relative, but not reflected in the City's records) south of the 22' described by Mr. Rule be used to develop a larger street. He was informed that what the applicant was proposing was within ordinance requirements. A motion for approval as amended was made and passed by a vote of: 11 ayes, 0 noes and 0 absent.
