Review File: BROOKFIELD 4THADDITION. Major Plat Preliminary Plat Request Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Code Review Page 3 of 5 • All oak trees and evergreen trees that are four (4) inches or greater in Diameter at Breast Height (DBH) and all other deciduous trees that are eight (8) inches in greater DBH shall be identified on the tree inventory (cumulatively referred to as significant trees). • Inventory shall include species, DBH, tree condition, whether the tree will be preserved or remove, a tally of total significant tree DBH on site and how many DBH inches will be removed. • Inventory shall also ident location of tree save fencing, which shall be installed at least at the drip line of individual trees or groups of trees and shall be in place prior to any grading or removal work begins. Topsoil: Each individual lot will need to have four (4) inches of topsoil meeting the City's topsoil specification. A topsoil inspection is required prior to landscaping being installed and copies of the load tickets are required as well. This is reviewed at time of Building Permit Application and request for Certificate of Occupancy for each individual lot. Building Elevations: No elevations of the proposed homes were submitted. Individual models are not included for review. In a single family development, it is difficult to approve every individual potential model at time of Plat. As with the original Preliminary Plat, no enhanced architecture above the minimum City Code requirements of Section 117-111 (R-1 Residential District) is being proposed. The required Development Agreement shall clearly state that additional architectural requirements are not being required at this time, and that the underlying requirements for the R-1 Residential (MUSA) District are required. Streets: All proposed streets appear to meet the 60 foot width minimum. Proposed street system appears to complete anticipated connections such as with 168th Avenue NW. The connection will result in additional traffic levels on 168th Avenue as well as Garnet Street. Garnet Street currently has a poor pavement condition (Paser Rating of 1) and is subject to reconstruction. The reconstruction of Garnet Street is currently dependent upon implementation of the City's Long Term Street Maintenance Program currently under consideration. The Plans shall be revised to clearly articulate the connection of 168`h Avenue, including the removal and restoration of the existing cul-de-sac. Please review the Engineering Technical Report for additional details. Sidewalks and Trails. The plans must be amended to clearly indicated sidewalks on at least one side of each public street. Grading Corrections on Block 6, BROOKFIELD 3" ADDITION. Interim grading approval by the City needs to be corrected to comply with the overall grading plan for BROOKFIELD. If the grading is not corrected or is proposed to follow the interim grading solution, the existing Temporary Grant of Drainage and Utility Easement must be re -affirmed before that Plat is released for recording. This applies to Block 3 of BROOKFIELD 3' ADDITION. Development Fee Calculations: Development Fees due on the Plat are attached hereto as an exhibit to this review file.
