Residential, 2-8 dwelling units per acre Chapter 14-7, Land Subdivisions December 3, 1998 January 17, 1998 February 1, 1998 2 BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The applicant, Frank A. Boyd, is requesting a final plat of Boyd's Fashionable Acres, an 11.51 acre, 16-lot residential subdivision located at 2511 Rochester Avenue. The property is zoned RS-5, Low Density Single-Family Residential, and contains a single-family home and a barn. The preliminary plat was approved earlier this year, subject to the off-site dedication of land to accommodate a pedestrian walkway that would provide access from Mount Vernon Drive to the proposed Outlot A, which is to be dedicated as a public open space. ANALYSIS: Final Plat: The proposed final plat is in conformance with the approved preliminary plat and the City's subdivision regulations. Legal papers and construction drawings have been submitted and are under review. These documents must be approved by staff prior to City Council consideration of the plat. The property contains steep slopes (18~24 percent) and critical slopes (25 - 40 percent). According to the approved grading and sensitive areas site plan, none of the critical slopes are to be directly affected by development activities. These plans were approved in conjunction with the preliminary plat. The plat proposes a total of 16 building lots and four outlots. One of the building lots would contain the existing home located on the property. Outlot B is to be potentially transferred to the adjacent property owner, and Outlots A, C and D are to be dedicated to the City for use as public park land. More details of this dedication are provided below. Sidewalks: Sidewalks will be installed along Boyd Court as individual lots are developed, as is typically the practice in the development of residential subdivisions. The legal papers should specify that sidewalks will be installed along the Boyd Court frontages of Outlots A and B at the time the street is constructed. Since no building permit will be requested for these properties, there will be no impetus to install these sections of the sidewalk unless required prior to acceptance of the street improvements by the City. The draft Northeast District Plan also calls for the construction of an 8-foot wide sidewalk along the south side of Rochester Avenue. An 8ofoot sidewalk was required for the Green Mountain Meadow subdivision located a few parcels east of this property. There is already a 4-foot wide sidewalk located along the Rochester Avenue frontage of this property, which is all that the City typically requires when properties are developed. The over-width paving costs are usually paid by the City. In this case staff recommends that the establishment of an 8-foot not be required at this time, but that it occur as part of a future public improvement project. Since the 4-foot sidewalk exists, the applicant has met his requirement. When the rest of the 8-foot sidewalk is established along Rochester, this link can also be upgraded. Rochester Avenue Access: Boyd Court accesses Rochester Avenue aligned with Bluffwood Lane. This is a good location in terms of minimizing traffic conflict points along Rochester Avenue. Lot 1 contains an existing house that has a driveway located just west of the proposed intersection. The approval of the preliminary plat allowed this drive to remain until such time that Lot 1 was either subdivided or redeveloped to allow a higher density on the property, at which time it would have to be closed and access to the lot would be restricted to Boyd Court. This restriction is addressed in the legal papers and noted on the plat. Open Space: A total of .26 acres of open space is required as a result of this subdivision. The plat contains a 2.35 acre outlot (Outlot A) that the Parks and Recreation Commission recommended as public open space, provided that land was dedicated off-site to allow access to the outlot from Mount Vernon Drive. The final plat now incorporates this off-site area into the final plat, and indicates that it will be dedicated to the City. This dedication would satisfy the requirements of the Neighborhood Open Space ordinance. Construction of the sidewalk would be the City's responsibility at the time a park is established on Outlot A. The applicant has indicated that the subject property may not be developed immediately upon approval of the final plat. Therefore, he is not interested in transferring Outlot A to the City until the rest of the property is developed. In other cases, the City has delayed acceptance of dedicated property until a sufficient number of the surrounding lots have been developed. The legal papers contain provisions indicating that Outlot A will not be transferred to the City until at least 50 percent of the lots within this subdivision are developed. Storm Water Management: Drainage and Storm Water Management issues were discussed and reviewed extensively during the review of the preliminary plat for this property. Two storm water detention basins are to be constructed on the property to meet the requirements of the City's Storm Water Management Ordinance, and storm sewer improvements are to be made along the southwest corner of the subdivision to address these issues. As discussed at that time, the detention facilities are to be oversized due to the lack of a good overland flow route between this property and Mt. Vernon Drive and Georgetown Circle. The Storm Water Management Ordinance requires that the rate of water leaving the site after development not exceed the rate leaving the site prior to development. Calculations submitted with the preliminary plat indicate that this requirement will be met on the property, and this will have to be carried through on the construction plans and the actual development of the property. Water Main Extension Fee: A water main extension fee of 9395 per acre will be required as a result of this subdivision. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that SUB98-0030, a request for a final plat of Boyd's Fashionable Acres, an 11.51 acre, 16-lot residential subdivision located at 2511 Rochester Avenue, be approved, subject to the approval of legal papers and construction drawings prior to City Council consideration of the final plat.
