Some parking areas are over wide. Landscape• Areas set aside for buffers and landscaping meet with ordinance requirements when averaged out. However, portions of the proposed land use buffers drop below the full requirement of 36 feet in width to the south and 40 feet in width to the east. Quite a number of the proposed interior driveways and parking lots have widths far in excess of that required. A driveway width at 24 to 26 feet is usually sufficient. Cutting back on excessive paved areas will allow more area for landscape and create more of a park -like setting. A six foot high opaque screen, either a wood fence with its face directed outward or dense evergreen plantings are required to screen this site from the residential properties to the south and east. Curb and gutter or another approved border will be required to protect landscaped areas from vehicular traffic. If dumpsters are to be used their locations should be shown. Dumpsters are required to have an eight foot high screen on three sides. Efforts should be made to save as many of the remaining trees as possible. Prior to a building permit being issued, three copies of a detailed landscape plan must be submitted to and approved by Bob Brown, Plans Review Specialist. He may be reached at 371-4864. G. ANALYSIS• This MF-18 project is designed to produce about 15 units per acre. There is a significant amount of landscaping and open space, more than enough parking and an exterior design superior to the usual apartments. H. STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff feels that this is a good project given the site. We find only minor details in the plan that require attention. We recommend approval subject to follow through on the Public Works and Planning comments. 3 7— -- - - - - I December 18, 1997 SUBDIVISION ITEM NO.: 14 Cont.
