Dear John:
City staff has reviewed your submittal for the Replat of Sun disk
Village, Preliminary Plat, and offers the following comments:
1.

The 60' minimum lot width requirement at the building front
face (toward the street) may necessitate excessive front
setbacks on some lots.
Lot areas, addresses, and street names are not necessary on
the Preliminary Plat, but will be required on the Final Plat.
Stormwater Utility suggests dedication of the storm drainage
swale and detention pond to the City, thereby giving the City
responsibility for maintenance of both.
A maintenance access will be needed in order for Stormwater to
maintain the detention pond. Eventually Stormwater would like
to combine this pond with the Five Oaks detention pond, but in
the event that this does not happen an easement must be
provided to the pond that cannot be fenced.
A resubmittal of the Preliminary Drainage Report and Plan is
not necessary as long as all concerns are addressed in the
final submittal.
Please explain the outlet design at the detention pond.
Provide turning radius on the street entry into development
from Windmill Drive.
The Utility Plans have been reviewed and red -lined by
Engineering and Water/Wastewater. These red -lined plans have
been transmitted to Stewart & Associates with comments.
There is an existing Public Service gas main centered in the
8' wide easement along the east side of Windmill Drive that
will have to be extended to serve this property.

10. Notation should be added to the plat relative to the two
tracts at the south end of this replat that are to be
developed in the future. It should clearly state that -these
tracts are subject to the approved Sun Disk Village PUD and
anything other than the approved multi -family use with
attached densities would require an administrative change or
an amendment to the PUD.
11. What is the status of the improvements proposed for the future
multi -family tracts?
12. Any changes to the existing driveway that serves the multi-
family area must maintain 20' inside and 40' outside turning
radius for emergency fire vehicle access.
13. The off-street parking requirements for the undeveloped multi-
family units must be maintained independent of this replat to
single-family. These requirements are:
'1 bedroom or less/dwelling unit ........ 1.5 spaces
2 bedrooms/dwelling unit...............1.75 spaces
3 bedrooms/dwelling unit...............2.0 spaces
4 bedrooms and above/dwelling unit ..... 2.5 spaces
There appears to be adequate spaces off-street, with
approximately 2 spaces/unit in the garage and driveway, and 7
common spaces in the two parking areas adjacent to each tract.
14. It is important to be very sensitive to the type and locations
of fencing along Windmill Drive, the entry to the multi -family
area, and the rear lot lines adjacent to the detention pond.
Fencing guidelines for this project could be considered, with
character sketches that would convey the intent and give the
staff a starting point for discussion with you to determine
the best possible solution for an attractive development.
15. One street tree per lot, preferably being a mixture of
deciduous (both -shade and ornamental). and evergreen,—shou--l--d-be
provided on all interior streets. Will there be a Home Owners
Association with this single-family development? Some
landscape treatment in the detention pond area would benefit
the entire area, being aware that it would have to be approved
by the Stormwater Department before they would accept
maintenance of that facility.
16. Lots 21, 22, and 23 do not comply with Section 29-658(b)of
City Code because "Lots with both front and rear frontage on
a street shall not'be permitted except where necessary ,to
provide separation from arterial streets or from incompatible
uses". Please contact me at 221-6750 to discuss the options
and possible solutions.
