Case #~: Request for Final Plat Approval of Sunflower Ridge 2nd Addition; Case of Orrin Thompson Homes Community Development Director Trudgeon reviewed that in 2002, the City approved a preliminary plat and site plan for Sunflower Ridge. At that time, the plat consisted of 18.6 acres proposed to be developed in two phases with a total of 126 row style townhomes. The final plat for the Ih'st phase consisted of 46 row style townhomes. In 2005, On'in Thompson Homes applied for a revised preliminary plat for the second phase of Sunflower Ridge that would provide a mix of product type, including 36 row style townhomes and 44 back-to-back townhomes. The change in product styles to include some back-to-back units will not increase the number of units that was originally proposed for the 2nd phase of Sunflower Ridge. The Planning Commission conducted a public hearing on August 8, 2005 regarding the revisions. On August 23, 2005, the City Council approved a revised preliminary plat for the second phase of Sunflower Ridge. The Council also approved the revised site plan on August 23, 2005. The overall number of units has remained the same as what was approved in 2002. The road conliguration will remain the same as the preliminary plat. The Grading and Drainage Plan and l~tility Plan are generally acceptable; the final plans must comply with comments in the City Staff Review Letter. ('emro unity Development Director Trudgeon advised the final plans include a sidewalk along the cast side of Iodine and along the north side of 154th Avenue N.W. The 2002 recommendation of the Pa,'k Commission was for a cash payment to satisfy park dedication requirements. That recomlnendation was reconfirmed on August 11, 2005. In accordance with comments received during thc revised preliminary plat and site plan review, the Landscape/Tree Preservation Plan shifts units 1-5 and 45-50 south to preserve more trees than the original plan of 2002.
