<br />CASE #: ~ <br /> <br />REQUE~T FOR SKETCH PLAN REVIEW OF ELMCREST SANCTUARY LOCATED <br />AT 16601 QUICKSILVERSTNW; <br />CASE OF OAKWOOD LAND DEVELOPMENT, INC. <br />By: Tim Gladhill, Associate Planner / <br /> <br />Background: <br /> <br />Oakwood Land Development, Inc. submitted a sketch plan to develop a one (1) lot, two (2) outlot <br />single-family plat On the property generally located on the west of Saint Francis Blvd NW (TH <br />4 7)an~ south of 16ih Ave NW. . <br /> <br />Notification: <br /> <br />No public hearing is required for a minor plat. However, the City Council adopted a policy <br />'requiring no~ification of a proposed subdivision be sent out to residents within 350 feet of the <br />subject property during sketch plan ~ubmittal. <br /> <br />Observations: <br /> <br />The Subject Property is approximately 25.6 acres in size and is zoned R-l Residential (Rural <br />Developing). The land' use designation is not proposed to change with the draft Comprehensive <br />Plan Update. The permitted density in the R-1 Residential (Rural Developing)District is one(1) <br />unit per two and a half (2.5) acres. The sketch plan proposes one existing unit on a two and a <br />half (2.5) acrelot. This equates to a density of one (1) unit per two and a half (2.5) acres, which <br />meets City Code standards. The Sketch Plan needs to be revised to reflect the R -1 Residential <br />(Rural Developing) standards as opposed to the R-1 Residential (MUSA) as currently shown. <br /> <br />The development will receive access from Quicksilver Street. While the existing terminus of <br />Quicksilver Street is a dedicated, public street, the future right-of-way owned by.the City that <br />will serve as the frontage for the ~xisting lot is not platted, nor dedicated public roadway at this <br />time, essentially creating a land-locked parcel. A temporary road easement willb~ required <br />along the existing access road to Elmcrest Park. Since the eastern property line will now serve as <br />the frontage for the parcel, the driveway should be relocated to join the existing park access road <br />at that point, and not on Outlot A, also eliminating the need for additional cross access <br />easements, cart paths, etc.' In addition, an easement for a future sidewalk along the eastern <br />boundary shall be required. ' <br /> <br />It appears that all setbacks are met based on the current Sketch Plan. A grading and drainage <br />plan will be required to beco'mpleted in order to review a Final Plat. The Sketch Plan includes <br />sufficient drainage and utility, easements. Staff recommends that the Traffic Generation Analysis, <br />requirement be waived, as no additional buildable lots are being created. <br /> <br />33 <br />
