Re: Linden Park P.D.P. - Variance Request (horizontal curve radius)
Project No. 0930-001
Dear Ron,
As engineer for the Linden Park project, currently under review by City staff for P.D.P., I
hereby formally request a variance to the City standard for street geometry. Specifically,
horizontal curve radius. We have proposed centerline curve radii for the streets near the
corners of the project of 47.50 feet, and radii as small as 165.00 feet for the center circle
drive (Linden Park Circle). The minimum center line radius for a local street, per the
City criteria, is 240.00 feet.
In an attempt to meet the intent of City Plan in so far as lot and street layout, and based
on the shape of the development parcel, we feel this variance request is justifiable. We
also have met with Planning staff as well as Transportation and Engineering staff to
discuss our proposed roadway layout and curve radii. We have received favorable
responses from all parties met with.
We respectfully request a variance to the minimum horizontal curve radii for street
centerline alignment as discussed above. Please feel free to contact me if you should
have any questions, concerns, or require any further information.
Respectfully,
TST, INC CONSULTING ENGINEERS
