RE: Raven View POP
Lot Numbers on Re -submitted Documents
Anne,
As you are probably aware, we re -submitted Raven View yesterday morning. The
purpose of this letter is to offer clarification/explanation for an item that may not appear
consistent throughout the document set. The item is the numbering/designation of one
particular parcel along the southern row of single-family lots. The referenced parcel is
located at the southwestern comer of the site immediately east of the right-of-way
dedicated for the southern street stub.
This parcel was designated as "Lot 34" during final coordination amongst the Consultant
Team prior to printing submittal documents. As such, the Site Plan and Landscape Plan
have it noted as Lot 34. However, upon final review of the plat itself before sending our
plans to the printers, we realized that this was an un-buildable lot. Therefore, we changed
this parcel to a tract (Tract F) to be owned and maintained by the Home Owners
Association.
While this item may result in minor discrepancies between the submittal documents, it
does not after the intent of the project plan itself. Thus, I do not think it should preclude
the scheduling of a public hearing. If you feel the Director would prefer updated drawings
prior to hearing, we are willing to provide them, but we do not think it should warrant
another formal submittal or round of review.
Instead of 19 single-family residential lots, the proposed plat (plan) only has 18 single-
family lots. The total number of attached residential lots is the same on all submittal
documents (33 units not counting garages). The only difference is the actual lot
numbering due to the conversion of the single-family detached lot formally designated as
Lot 34 to Tract F.
As stated in yesterday's response letter, the Applicant and the Consultant Team have an
intense desire for this submittal to be recommended for hearing. Should this issue - or
any other arising during the review process - cause concern to Staff, we kindly request
that you contact us rather than utilizing written comments and entire review cycles as the
only form of correspondence. We do not expect any leniency with respect to satisfying
the appropriate standards and criteria; however, we feel this plan satisfies the necessary
"preliminary" requirements for public hearing, and that the other details can be worked out
during Final Compliance.
Sin rely,
Nicholas W. Haws, E.I.
Project Manager
