M 1 To: Planning & Zoning Commission Prepared by: Bruce Knight Item: S-8322. 1000 Oakcrest Street Date: December15, 1983 Preliminary & Final ISRD GENERAL INFORMATION• Applicant: Nagle/Furman/Nagle Requested action: Purpose: Location: Size: Comprehensive Plan: Existing land use and zoning: Surrounding land use and zoning: Applicable regulations: 45 -day limitation period: SPECIAL INFORMATION: Public utilities: Public services: Transportation: 2305 Cae Drive Iowa City, Iowa 52240 Preliminary and final LSRD approval.

Undeveloped and R3A (Proposed RM -44) North - Single family residential and R1B East - Multi -family residential and R3A South - Multi -family residential and R3A West - Multi -family residential and R3A Provisions of the large scale residential development plan review ordinance and zoning code. 1/13/84 Sewer and water services are avail- able. Police and fire protection are available. Vehicular access is proposed via Oakcrest Street. GfJ 2 Physical characteristics: The majority of the site is gradually sloping with the exception of a ravine along the rear property line which is steeply sloping. ANALYSIS: The applicants are requesting approval of a large scale residential develop- ment plan for a 72 -unit multi -family development on a 1.70 acre tract. Because of the timing of this application, it is necessary to review this plan for compliance with both the current and the proposed zoning ordinance. There are two significant differences between the existing and the proposed ordinance i.e. required off-street parking and the side yard requirement. Under the proposed ordinance, the property in question would be zoned R4-44 (see attachment #2), and off-street parking would be required for multi -family dwellings at a ratio of two spaces per dwelling for units 800 square feet in floor area or greater. The proposed development plan shows 72 exterior spaces and 72 spaces located in parking garages below the two 36 -unit buildings, or two spaces per unit. It would, therefore, comply with the proposed ordinance. The current zoning ordinance requires a minimum five foot side yard regard- less of the size of the building. Under the proposed ordinance, a five foot side yard will be required for the first two stories, and two feet more will be required for each additional floor. In this case, two three-story buildings are proposed seven foot side yards would be required. The LSRD plan for 1000 Oakcrest Street complies with this requirement. Another concern regarding the proposed development is the land area included in the plan. The development plan covers a portion of Lot 7, Terrace Hill Addition (the shaded area on attachment #3), and excludes the remainder of the lot. The Iowa City Code of Ordinances defines a large scale residential development as "a multi -residential building or buildings built upon a separate tract greater than two (2) acres in area or a residential building or buildings built upon a separate tract containing thirty (30) or more living units..." A separate tract is defined as "a parcel of land or a group of contiguous parcels of land under one ownership." Since_ Lot 7 is a single parcel of land that is under one ownership, it should all be included in the development plan. This additional land area would boost the total acreage of the site over two acres and require the applicants to conform with the provisions of the storm water management ordinance. The applicants have indicated that they are planning to give this land to the adjoining property owners since it is a ravine and is of no value to them. This solution would be acceptable since no new lots would be created (this land cannot be subdivided from the remainder because no frontage is avail- able), however, this transaction must be completed and recorded proof submitted to the City before the plan can be approved without provision of storm water management. In 3 STAFF RECO MO DATION• Staff recommends that the preliminary and final Large Scale Residential Development plan for 1000 Oakcrest Street be deferred.

The Committee then makes recommendations to the City Council regarding classification changes, and has done so several times since its inception. The Committee now recommends that -the positions of Mechanic I (Welding) and Mechanic I (Rebuild) be reclassified from Salary Grade 7 ($14,892 -;19,177) to Salary Grade 8 ($15,371 - $19,905) and be re -titled as Mechanic II. A resolution to accomplish this has been included on your agenda. Review of the classification of these positions was requested by the two affected employees with the concurrence of their supervisor, Terry Reynolds, Equipment Superintendent. Both employees perform the normal duties of the Mechanic I position and in addition also perform the more highly skilled duties of welding or of rebuilding bus transmissions and parts. These types of duties are not routinely performed by ordinary mechanics and have resulted in substantial cost savings to the City. Over $8,000 per year is saved by performing welding on an in-house basis vs. the cost of sending this work out, and over $17,000 is saved in performing parts rebuild activities (bus transmissions, brake drums, etc.) in house. Cost of reclassification of these positions is equal to $728 each for the two affected employees for a full fiscal year. Funding is available within the FY84 budget. In considering changes in job classification, the Committee uses a professionally developed system to evaluate only the knowledge, skills, and abilities required in the affected positions vs. those found in other City positions. The Committee feels that the additional complexity of job duties of these two positions warrants reclassification. I would be happy to provide any additional information an these recommen- dations. be/sp 7 T
