Review Letter: Sunfish Estates December 28, 1995 Page 2 o 2 ~&S2 It appears that the cul-de-sac exceeds the 600 foot maximum established by City Code by approximately 200 feet. This situation could be avoided by relocating the access road to tt ~e south by this distance. Care should also be taken to ensure that the extension of the lake frontage roadway north of the plat allow futm'e lake frontage lots to meet the shorelan, setback requirement, as it appears the shoreland continues to drift eastward north of the pl., boundaries. ~ The submittal of a Grading and Drainage Plan is required at the time of Prelimin~tu'y Plat approval. Any exporting of soils from the site will require a conditional use permi?t. Tree PreServation and Planting Plan: At the time of preliminary plat approval, the submittal must inetude an addendum to the Grading Plan that identifies existing trees, trees to be preservil~d during construction, along with the method of preservation, and the planting of one 2 ino~a diameter tree in the front yard of each lot. ~:i It is Staff's understanding that the site improvements will be installed as a private project x~dth no financial participation on the part of the City. It will be necessary for the fee title r~wner of the property to petition the City for the extension of the trunk lines. 10. park Ded their De~ Sunfish from thc the deve] boulevan cation: The Park and Recreation Commission reviewed a draft sketch plan at :tuber meeting. Staff was directed to identify probable lake access points on ~ake with the developer and show where users of the sidewalk might view the lake road right-of-way. In addition, the Commission recommended that the City and oper work together to salvage as many trees as possible for the Sunwood Drive t. The December 12 sketch plan will be forwarded to the Commission in January. 11.
