Dear Eldon:
Staff has reviewed the request for Stetson Creek, Filing Two, Final
P.U.D. and offers the following comments:
1. The request for Final P.U.D. will not be allowed to proceed to
the June Planning and Zoning Board hearing due to a
significant discrepancy that has been discovered in the volume
of storm flows anticipated for the McClelland Channel. The
Stormwater Utility has asked for new SWMM modeling hydrology
study to verify upstream developed conditions. There is a
possibility that 150 c.f.s. may be unaccounted for and that
the channel is undersized. Until this information has been
submitted and reviewed by Stormwater, the Final P.U.D. cannot
proceed. There is a concern that the new data may cause the
channel size to increase thereby influencing the layout of
streets, lots, and easements. More detailed comments from
Stormwater have been forwarded directly to Northern
Engineering.
2. The following comments apply to the plat:
A. In the last call of the legal description, the legal does
not match the map.
B. To establish a basis of bearings, you must find two
Public lands survey monuments. Only one is indicated
while the other is assumed.
C. The vicinity map should place the site in the context of
the city limits. Please add the city boundaries and
County Road #36 for reference.
D. The west end of Aspen Brook Court right-of-way line
appears to overlap the property line.
E. Curve data needs to be completed, please add radius and
delta values.

3. Please keep trees 10 feet away and shrubs four feet away from
water and sewer mains and service lines.
4. Signage must be added to the emergency access lane: "No
Parking - Fire Lane."
5. Landscape Note Number 14 does not work as an effective
enforcement mechanism. Landscape materials must be secured
prior to issuance of the first C.O.
6. Please provide information on the latest negotiation with the
homeowners to the south in the Blehm and Scheller Subdivisions
regarding the location and ownership of the return flow ditch
and resolution of livestock conflicts with the perimeter
fence. Will a six foot wood fence withstand livestock? If
livestock are separated from this fence, is there an "alley"
that is created between fences? If there is an alley, who
maintains? How have these issues been resolved and what is
the latest contact with the neighbors? Please provide a
detail on the P.U.D. as to how the southerly lots in Stetson
Creek relate to the existing County lots. These issues were
unresolved at Preliminary.
This concludes Staff comments at this time. As mentioned, the
project is not eligible for the June P & Z meeting due to issues
with McClelland Channel. For your information, the revision date
for the July P & Z meeting is July 5, 1995. It is suggested that
the parties meet after additional drainage information is provided
to the Stormwater Utility in order to check on the status of the
plans at that point. Otherwise, it is difficult to schedule the
review process for this project.
As always, please call if there are any questions regarding these
comments.
Sincerely:
Ted Shepard
Senior Planner
