SUBDIVISION COMMITTEE COMMENT: (June 24, 2015) Mr. Thomas Pownell and Mr. Scott Hurley were present representing the request. Staff presented an overview of the item stating there were few outstanding technical issues in need of addressing related to the proposed preliminary plat. Staff stated the plat included variances from the subdivision ordinance as well as from the City's land alteration ordinance. Staff questioned if the development would be completed in phases or in a single phase. Staff also requested the applicant provide the draft bill of assurance for the subdivision. Public Works comments were addressed. Staff stated the boundary street ordinance would apply to the development of the property. Staff also stated the City's stormwater detention ordinance would apply to the development of the property. Staff stated streetlights were required prior to final platting. Staff stated the new back of curb for Gordon Road should be 26-feet from the existing curb. Staff stated new curb and gutter was required with the street construction. Staff requested the applicant provide a letter from the Fire Marshal indicating the ingress and egress was adequate to meet the State Fire Code. Staff noted the comments from the various other agencies. There were no more issues for discussion. The Committee then forwarded the item to the full Commission for final action. H. ANALYSIS: The applicant submitted a revised preliminary plat to staff addressing a number of the technical issues raised at the June 24, 2015, Subdivision Committee meeting. The applicant has indicated the new lots will be developed in a single phase. The applicant has also provided a draft bill of assurance for the proposed subdivision. The applicant is requesting preliminary plat approval to allow the creation of 4.9 acres with 19 single-family residential lots. The lots are proposed with an average lot size of 60-feet by 130-feet and a minimum lot size of 55-feet by 146-feet. The lots include several variances from development standards per the subdivision ordinance. The variances include lot widths, reduced setback and double frontage lots. The applicant is seeking a variance from Section 31-232 to allow reduced lot widths for Lots 6, 7, 8, 9 Block 5, Lots 2, 3, 4 Block 6 and a variance to allow a reduced lot width for the corner lots, Lots 1 and 5 Block 6. The ordinance would typically require a minimum lot width of 60-feet for interior 7 July 16, 2015 SUBDIVISION ITEM NO.: 1 (Cont. FILE NO.: S-1665-E lots and 75-feet for corner lots. The interior lots are indicated at 55-feet and the corner lots are indicated at 65-feet. The applicant is seeking a variance from Section 31-256 to allow a reduced front yard setback for Lots 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 Block 6 and a variance from Section 36-254 to allow a reduced rear yard setback for Lots 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 Block 6. The ordinance would typically require the placement of a 25-foot front and rear yard setback. The corner lots would typically require the placement of a 25-foot side yard setback adjacent to the street. The side yard setback on the corner lots is indicated at 15-feet. The front and rear yard setbacks are indicated at 25-feet. The request includes a variance from Section 36-254 to allow a reduced side yard setback for Lots 1 and 5 Block 6 (as indicated in the previous paragraph) and a variance to allow a 5-foot side yard setback on all remaining side yards in Blocks 5 and 6. The ordinance would typically require the side yard setback to be a minimum of ten (10) percent of the lot width. The plat indicates five (5) of the lots as double frontage lots. The request includes a variance from Section 31-232(d) to allow double frontage lots for Lots 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 Block 6. The applicant has indicated a ten (10) foot restrictive access easement will be placed on the front or back of the lots at the time of final platting. The request also includes a variance from the City's Land Alteration Ordinance to allow grading of the entire site with the installation of the streets, water and sewer. The applicant has indicated advanced grading is necessary to balance the site. Staff is supportive of the applicant's proposal and the request to allow the development of the lots as proposed. The applicant has developed lots with similar lot sizes and setbacks within the subdivision immediately to the west of this site. Although there are variances associated with the request staff does not feel the variances will adversely impact this development or the area. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the request subject to compliance with the comments and conditions as outlined in paragraphs D, E and F of the agenda staff report. 0 July 16, 2015 SUBDIVISION ITEM NO.:_1 (Cont.)

A variance from the City's Land Alteration Ordinance to allow grading of the entire site with the installation of the streets, water and sewer. Mr. Scott Hurley addressed the Commission on behalf of the request. He requested to yield his time to the opposition and to address any questions they may have. Ms. Pat Strack addressed the Commission with concerns. She stated she was representing the property owner in the first phase of the development. She stated the residents were concerned with the development and questioned if the homes would be attached single-family. She stated the residents felt the rock wall was an asset to the area and requested the developer maintain the rock wall. She questioned the location of the garages and if the new homes would have garages located along the street entering the subdivision. She also requested the developer install additional landscaping for the new homes. She questioned if any street widening would occur as a result of the new homes. She stated the developer had not installed the water system to water the subdivision entrance landscaping and the residents living near the entrance were maintaining and watering the plants. Mr. Hurley stated the homes would be detached single-family homes similar in construction to the homes in the first phase. He stated efforts would be made to maintain the rock wall but it would be difficult due to grading which would be required to construct the new homes. He stated the direction of the new homes had not been determined. He stated the street would be constructed to a residential street standard as required by the City. There was no further discussion. A motion was made to approve the request and the associated variances. The motion carried by a vote of 11 ayes, 0 noes and 0 absent. 10 ITEM NO.: 1.
