Dear Russ:
City staff has reviewed the Wildflower Ridge PUD and has the
following comments on this item:
1. A traffic impact study should be submitted to use to determine
the impact from the proposed land use and to determine what street
improvements may be necessary off -site. We are assuming that a
waiver to the UGA street capacity requirement will be submitted and
believe that a traffic impact study is necessary information to
fully evaluate such a waiver request.
2. The proposed density of 1.9 acres per single family unit is not
consistent with the UGA minimum density of 2 DU/acre.
3. Red Fox Road, Wildflower Way and Morning Glory Road need to be
built to City local street standards, including curb, gutter,
sidewalk and streetlights. Streets need to intersect at 90 degrees
and minimum centerline radii need to be met. No "angle points" are
permitted (use large radius curves).
4. The site is not eligible for annexation; however, an
annexation agreement should be required.
5. Clarification is needed regarding whether the access to this
site is tied to the Fox Hills development, or if this site has its
own access easement.
6. Clarification is needed regarding whether the site meets the
1/6 contiguity requirement and if not, whether a waiver will be
requested.
Thank you for the oppoFtunity to review this item.
