Density related modifications to current zoning or changes to zoning for residental uses require compliance with Unimproved Road Policy.

Consider a road alignment for the Extension of Orchard with a horizontal (185'-200') radius that eliminates the partial bulb between the cul-de-sac and Olive.

Identify areas where on-street or off-street parking can be accommodated or proposed (outside driveways/garages), if any, for guest and overflow parking.

Please provide a copy of the legal description in a Word format.

Please label the width of the proposed sidewalks.

Please label the building setback lines from streets with dimensions.

In considering a preliminary development plan application, the Planning Commission and City Council will give consideration to certain criteria. Specifically, the extent to which the proposed use will negatively affect the aesthetics of the neighboring property and the character of the neighborhood. Please articulate how the proposed development fits with the existing neighborhood character. Additionally, please provide insight as to how this particular architectural style was selected given staffs previous guidance to ensure the proposed homes fit with the historical nature of the area.

The proposed footprints on sheet C03 don’t seem to be consistent with the footprints show on the architectural sheet. Please update the all sheets so that they are consistent and accurate.

As shown, buildings 4, 7, and 12 are violating the 20’ front yard setback. The modification request letter dated December 11, 2019 states only one building is proposed to not meet the required setback. Staff is unlikely to support this request.

The proposed elevations show the 2nd floor overhanging into the side yards significantly. Please dash in this overhang on the site plan.

In the site data table please include the total number of proposed units, and list the dwelling units per acre, with and without common area.

Is the existing home at 502 NW Orchard remaining? Is it is, it must be included in the units/acre calculations.

The total number of cul-de-sac lots in a subdivision shall be no more than ten percent of the total number of lots in the subdivision. As proposed the total number of cul-de-sac lots in the development is 100%. This will require a modification. Cul-de-sacs shall be no longer than 500 feet and the maximum number of dwelling units on a cul-de-sac shall be 20. As proposed you will have 36 units. This will require a modification as well.

On sheet L01, it is unclear where the proposed buffer fence will be located. Additionally, if you wish to locate the fence on or near the property line a modification will be required.

FYI, an approved plat will be required prior the issuance of building permits.

The architectural sheet still lists the project name as Burton Townhouse. Please update this to the current project title to avoid confusion.

The street network is shown as public. As such, water lines should be shown as public. No backflow vault should be shown if this is a public street.

The grading plan does not address drainage to the south of buildings 12 and 13. Please shown the proposed and finish grading, and ensure there is no adverse impact to adjacent property owners.

The grading plan shown in Burton Townhowmes application does not match the grading plan shown in this most recent proposal. In particular, the grading to the north of Buildings 1, 2 and 3 originally showed a swale on the Burton Townhome application, whereas this application shows no such swale. Is the existing home at 502 NW Olive St. going to remain "as-is"? If so, why is it being shown as part of this development? It appears to be included within the limits of this project.

A public sanitary sewer extension is shown between Building 3 and 4 with too little distance between them. Minimum distance between any portion of the buildings, and the outside of the sanitary sewer line, is fifteen (15) feet. This would include any overhangs on the buildings, footings, etc.

Public sanitary sewer manholes are shown terminating in the middle of cul-de-sac bulbs, which is not allowed under the current Design and Construction Manual.

The public sanitary sewer is too close to Building 5. In addition, it is also to close to the northwest corner of Building 4.

A monument sign is shown in what appears to be an easement. In addition, it is too close to a public water main. Minimum distance is ten (10) feet, as measured from the outside of the pipe, and any portion of the monument sign, including footings.

Where is the proposed right of way and proposed easements for the public street? A minimum of ten (10) feet of general utility easement is required adjacent to all public right of way.

Please show in graphic format, the maximum water surface elevation within the two detention basins. This would include the 100% clogged/zero available storage event. A minimum of 20 feet is required between this level, and any building or property line.

If the home at 502 NW Olive St. is a part of this project, please show the existing street access to Olive St. As shown, it does not appear to have any access. Our records indicate an existing driveway.
