-214- Site Plan Review: Alpine Meadows Page 2 of 4 April 26, 2002 Revised May 9, 2002 The townhouse units along public streets will be setback 25 feet from the right-of-way (approximately 40 feet from back of street curb) and the units located on the private streets will be located 25 feet from back of street curb. You applied for a variance from the required front-yard setback of 35 feet that was approved at the May 2, 2002 Board of Adjustment meeting. 5. Densitw: The subject property is approximately 8.75 acres and the 42 un/ts proposed results in a gross density of 4.82 units per acre. Net density of the project is 5.91 units per acre. Access: The sole access to all 42 units is from Alpine Dr. at a location approximately 330 feet west of the western right-of-way of TH 47. It is desirable to have this access street line up directly with the access point proposed for the Evergreen Point Subdivision to thenorth. The center[ine of Fluorine St. needs robe relocated 20 feet to the east. City Ordinances limit the length of a cul-de-sac to 600 feet. City Ordinances also require that the arrangement of streets in new subdivisions shall make provisions for the continuation of existing and future streets into adjoining areas. As part of the plat, you are showing the public right-of-way extend to the southern boundary. City staff' desires to have the right-of-way extend to the south property line in order to accommodate future extension and connections to streets to the south. A2er discussion with City staff' and the Planning Commission, you applied for a variance to exceed the 600-foot cul-de-sac length. At the May 2, 2002 Board of Adjustment meeting, you were granted a variance to exceed the 600-foot cul-de-sac limit. The site plan shows private driveway collectors serving !6 of the units. The remaining 26 units will have driveways on the public right-of-way. All of the driveways will be at least 25 feet long, with several being 30 to 40 feet long. 7. Grading and Drainage: The grading and :drainage plans have been reviewed as part of the preliminary plat of the Alpine Meadows subdivision. REU Stormwater Number: The City has enacted a quarterly stormwater drainage utility charge that is applicable to the proposed development. The townhome association will receive a quarterly charge which will be based on the total lot area of the development and the percentage of the development area which is impervious. Please submit the amount of impervious surface for the townhouse development so that the City can calculate the REU number. Landscaping: A Landscape Plan has been submitted that is generally acceptable and meets the City's minimum standards. City Staff will continue to review the plan and make comments regarding the plan at a future date.
