For the master plan, the change of use from the child care center to residential uses will decrease by .5 the density of any further developed tracts within 1,000 feet of Tract C. Points may be taken for an approved day care center at Tract G. 2. The master plan land use analysis should show the amended use for Tract C and correct summary figures. SOMMERVILLE PUD 1. Density Chart. The 20 points claimed for the park or community facility are acceptable. Points claimed for an employment center are question- able. The intent of the criterion is a centralized area rather than two employment centers in different directions from the site. As we discussed earlier, points claimed for contiguity are not allowed. The site must be contiguous to existing development which is defined in the zoning ordinance as any subdivision which has been approved and recorded once all engineering improvements are installed and completed. Points claimed for energy conservation are allowed with the following conditions: a. Infiltration is quite difficult to measure and weatherstripping is an existing code requirement. The numbers don't change significantly, so this item should be deleted, DEVELOPMENT. PLANNING DIVISION --- __. _'• , -_. ...+v - I uii i unnia, uuiuiauu OUJGL • IJUJ1221-wbu Fairbrooke MP Comme, 6/19/85 - Page 2 b. A note on the site plan is necessary to show window specifications for a U value of .49. C. Staff questions the U values for the doors. Please explain the type of door used which will provide a U value of .075. This should be described as a note on the site plan. The reason for requesting specifics at this stage is due to the substantial credit and the allowable density requested for the site. The structured parking density bonus points requested do not meet the intent of the criterion. Garages are not considered structured parking as the criterion is intended to minimize surface parking to open the site for other uses. At this time, Staff is accepting a total of 37 points (with the conditions imposed for the energy conservation credit). Points which may be allowable (will have to be discussed with Staff) include those requested for the employment center. Points are not allowed for criteria (j) and (t). 2. The numbering of lots 16 through 20 differs on the site plan and the plat. 3. The joint curb cuts on separate lots will require access easements. 4. Eight foot front and six foot rear utility easements must be shown. 5. A temporary cul-de-sac is required at the end of Sommerville Drive. 6. Please dimension right-of-ways, flow lines, walks, radii, etc. 7. Pedestrian access ramps are required at all corners. 8. Double driveways should provide one space for each unit. As shown, this may be a problem. 9. Improvements to Prospect are to be in an SID -- if the district is not approved by December 31, 1985 the work must be completed by the end of construction in 1986. 10. The cul-de-sac right-of-way must provide nine feet from flow line to flow line. 11. Justification for the 25 mph design speed is required. 12. Ditch company approval is required. Fairbrooke MP Comment 6/19/85 - Page 3 en 13. Charleston PUD must be in place prior to Sommerville PUD to comply with dead-end street requirements or an alternative second point of access found. 14. The cul-de-sac dimensions must meet fire access requirements. 15. Please show proposed fire hydrant locations. 16. Please submit drainage report. 17. A street light may be appropriate at the cul-de-sac terminus. 18. Utility plans for Tract B must be revised to show the sewer and its easement for Tract C. The sewer must be in a 20' unobstructed N easement and entirely within the right-of-way of Sommerville Court. N Lots 17-20 should be served by services into a sewer ending in Sommerville Court; a main should not be extended outside the cul-de-sac at the end of Sommerville Court. The existing sewer and manhole in Sommerville Drive will have to be removed if they are not used, 19. A homeowner's association is required for PUDs. Staff may support a waiver of this requirement. For now, please note on the site plan that there will be no homeowner's association and that the developer will retain architectural control including fencing materials and style. 20. The traffic impact study should show all traffic going north out of the site. The 15% going south is not probable. 21. Please provide a typical landscape and fence treatment for the buildings. Staff realizes that the landscaping will be left up to the homeowner but a proposed scheme may be useful. SITE PLANNING The proposed density of approximately 7 dwelling units per acre does not adequately indicate the density of the useable space. When the ditch and the street half right-of-way are removed, the site becomes very tight. The one-story elements (garages) help to minimize the impact of the large buildings, but 25 to 30 foot tall buildings with only 5 foot minimum setbacks are a concern. The density chart does not support this density and a variance must be requested. As the project is surrounded by existing development (though not contiguous) Staff will consider supporting a variance, though perhaps not at the proposed density.

The storm drainage utility has not received a drainage report. This should be submitted as soon as possible, 2. The four inch roadbase for the second point of access and temporary turnaround is not adequate. Please contact the city engineering department for correct depth and compaction. 3. All sign must comply with the sign code. 4. Landscaping beyond that which is to be installed on sheet one is necessary for this project. Landscaping perhaps not as complete as shown on sheet two should be added to the landscape plan. This point needs to be discussed as soon as possible. 5. The utility easements need to be shown on the plat. 6. Somerville Court does not meet City standards. This needs to be worked out with Bonnie. 7. Off -site easement dedication is needed. 8. Please add note -- Any existing curb, gutter, or sidewalk that is damaged is to be replaced by the developer. 9. The added note on the site plan should be completed.

The canal must be within an easement; as shown the canal does not follow the ditch easement. The Pleasant Valley and Lake Canal Company claims a 20 foot easement of each side of the ditch, the measurement beginning at the bank on each side of the ditch. 11. The buildings which encroach into the sewer easement must be moved. 12. The drives should_ be ten, feet wide rather than eight feet. Access .easements will be necessary -for eight foot drives. _ Revisions addressing the above comments are due in this office by August 7, 1985, at noon.
