10. 11. Site Plan Review: Sunfish Pond February 27, 1997 Page 2 of 3 Lot Coverage: All of the lots are in compliance with the 35% lot coverage restriction. Grading and Drainage: The northeast comer of the property has been previoUsly slated for a drainage retention area. City Staff previously requested calculations to show that runoff will not increase the elevation in this pond above 872 for a 100 year event. In accordance with Staff's recommendation at the time of sketch plan review, the drainage plan has been designed to convey the overflow from the northeast comer of Lot 1, Block 4, Sunfish Square (the Casey General Store lot), through the townhouse development to the regional storm pond. Landscaping and Screening: City Code requires a 40 foot w/de buffer area with screening where multiple dwelling structures abut single family districts. Screening is required to be a minimum of 5 feet in height. In the case of Sunfish Pond, this screened buffer area is required along the north and east plat boundaries. The Landscape Plan provides for compliance with these requirements except that all trees must be at least 5 feet in height and the Landscape Plan should be modified accordingly. At the time Sunfish Square was platted, it 'was recommended that the developer of the multi-family property establish and perpetually maintain plantings in the drainage area in the northeast comer of the plat. It is noted that the Landscape Plan includes some plantings in this area also. Off Street Parking, Design: All driveways and off-street parking areas are to be paved and finished with B-612 concrete curbing. The proposed curbing identified on Sheet 2 of 5 is concrete surmountable curbing. Staff recommends B type curbing be required since it functions superior to surmountable curbing with regard to hydraulic capacity and in containing vehicles to the roadway. Since all drive openings are known, removals for future openings wii1 not be a factor, which is normally the greatest advantage of surmountable curbing. ,! Utilities ond Water Usage: The development wili be served by municipal water and sanitary sewer, and it has been noted by the developer that the plans will be corrected to show a separate service to each unit. Off Street Parking, Number: City Code requires 2 parking stalls for each two bedroom unit and 2.5 stalls for each 3 bedroom unit. If all end units are 3 bedrooms and all middle units are 2 bedroom, then there are 40 3-bedroom units and 41 2-bedroom units. The total number of parking spaces required is 182 and the site plan proposes 201, exclusive of the two stall garage for each unit. .Architec~tral Standards: The building plans indicate that the structures will be sided with maintenance free siding and asphalt shingles.
