The Developer is responsible for obtaining any and all permits required from other regulatory agencies. _ Off-Street 1.'arking Requirements: The TC-4 District requires 2 off-street parking spaces 1br each unit; this requirement is exceeded with the proposed 2-car garages and 20 foot wide driveways. Some parking ix allowed on public streets, however, this may not be adequate for overflow parking. Driveway Length/Width: Under the TC-4a Zoning Code, driveways for units w/th attached garages must be at least 25 feet in length, as measured 'from the building front to the edge of the sidewalk. On June 28, 2005 the City Council will be considering some changes to the TC- 4a Zoning District, including lowering the minimum driveway length to 20 feet. Landscaping: The following comments are offered regarding the landscaping: a. Each single family lot should receive two (2) overstory trees, consisting of a mixture of coniferous and deciduous species (not less than 25% of either type). The Ramsey Tree Book should be referenced for preferred and acceptable species. Deciduous trees shall have at least a one (1) inch caliper and coniferous trees shall be at least five (5) feet in height. b. An alternate species should be incorporated for the north~south segment's of Guy 2 Street. c. Trees shall be at least fifteen (15) feet from hydrants (there do not appear to be any conflicts on the plan, but should be noted when trees are installed). d. Planting specifications should be included with the landscaping plan. The streetscape planting plan is generally acceptable. All species are either acceptable or preferred as outlined in the Ramsey Tree Book and meet the minimum size requirements. A revised plan should be submitted addressing the above mentioned concerns. If planting/growing space is restricted due to lot size, incorporating ornamental trees into the plantings will be acceptable. No revised plan has been submitted to date; a revised plan must be part of the final site plan submittal.
