KARR, CITY CLERK Shared/pcd/publicheadng STAFF REPORT To: Planning & Zoning Commission Prepared by: Robert Miklo Item: REZ01-OOO3/SUB0-0004 Date: March15,2001 Walnut Ridge Parts 9 and 10 GENERAL INFORMATION: Applicant: Southgate Development PO Box 1907 Iowa City, IA 52244 Requested Action: Amended Preliminary Sensitive Areas Overlay and Preliminary Plat approval Purpose: Development of 12 residential lots Location: Kennedy Parkway extended Size: 20.67 acres Existing Land Use and Zoning: OPDH-1; undeveloped Surrounding Land Use and Zoning: North: P and ID-RS; undeveloped woodlands South: OPDH~I; residential East: P; agricultural West: ID-RS; agricultural Comprehensive Plan: Residential 2-8 dwelling units per acre File Date: March 5, 2001 45-Day Limitation Period: April 18, 2001 SPECIAL INFORMATION: Public Utilities: City water and sewer service is available. Public Services: The City will provide police and fire protection. City refuse and recycling services will be provided. Transportation: The nearest transit stop is at Hawkeye Drive and Melrose Avenue. Physical Characteristics: Rolling topography including steep, critical and protected slopes and woodlands. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The preliminary plat and sensitive areas plan for Walnut Ridge, Parts 8, 9 and 10 were approved in late 2000. Because of prior grading and tree removal in violation of the Sensitive Areas Ordinance a tree replacement plan and a conservation easement were required. The applicant is now requesting approval of an amended preliminary plat and sensitive areas overlay plan for parts 9 and 10. A final plat for part 8 was approved earlier this year and is not be altered by this present proposal. ANALYSIS: The applicant has requested that the tree protection buffer line and conservation easement be reduced on lots 93, 97, 98 and 99. The applicant feels that this is necessary to allow adequate room to build dwellings on these lots. The plan indicates that additional trees would be removed on lots 98 and 99 and grading would be allowed within the root system of existing trees on lots 93, 97, 98 and 99 (See Exhibit A attached). This grading may result in the eventual death of additional trees. The applicant has proposed that additional replacement trees be planted within the street right-of-ways and along the perimeter of the subdivision. (Some of the replacement trees are shown on part 8, which is not included within this subdivision. If approved provisions will need to be made to allow the replacement trees off site). The previously approved tree replacement plan required 60 trees. The current proposal includes 82 tree. The additional 22 trees are required to replace trees that may be damaged if the buffer area is reduced. The City Forester has reviewed the plan and finds it to be acceptable if the revised sensitive areas plan with the buffer reduction is approved by the City. The sensitive areas ordinance states, "If the City determines that the required woodland area can not be retained due to site constraints or infrastructure requirements, replacement trees will be planted." In staff's opinion, the application does not provide information that demonstrates that there are site constraints that will not allow houses to be built on these lots without reducing the buffer or removing existing trees, There are no utilities proposed within the subject area that would require the removal of trees. The previously approved plan includes areas at least 60 to 90 feet in depth from the street right-of-way to the exiting buffer line. The applicant has indicated that there will be private covenants, which require a 40-foot front yard set back and therefore there will be less area to build houses. The City only requires a 20-foot setback. Given the sensitive areas on these lots staff recommends that the front yard setback imposed by the developer, be reduced on lots 93, 97, 98 and 99. Another alternative would be to move the street Alder Court to the south to provide more area for building on lots 97-99. Unless the applicant can demonstrate that site constraints will prevent the construction of houses on these lots, staff feels the there is no justification for allowing further tree removal or for reducing the required tree protection buffer. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the amended sensitive areas overlay and preliminary plat for Walnut 3 Ridge, Part 9 and 10 be denied. ATTACHMENTS: 1. Location Map. 2.

Peninsula Date: April 19, 2001 Neighborhood Amended Preliminary Sensitive Areas Development Plan/Amended Preliminary Plat/Final Plat, First Addition. GENERAL INFORMATION: Applicant: City of Iowa City 410 E. Washington St. Iowa City, IA 52240 Phone 356-5240 Requested action: Approval of an amended preliminary Sensitive Areas Development Plan, preliminary plat and final plat for the Peninsula Neighborhood, First Addition. Purpose: To allow development to proceed on 73 lots within Peninsula Neighborhood, First Addition. Location: At the west end of Foster Road Size: Approximately 82.1 acres, 35.99 within final plat Existing land use and zoning: Undeveloped, ID-RS Surrounding land use and zoning: North: Undeveloped, ID-RS; East: Golf Course, ID-RS; South: Residential, RS-5; West: Mix of Commercial, Industrial and residential within the City of Coralville. Comprehensive Plan: Residential, 2-8 dwelling units per acre BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The City Council approved the SAO plan and preliminary plat for the Peninsula Neighborhood earlier this year. The developer has now submitted a final plat for the First Addition. The City is also proposing an amended preliminary plat and SAO plan for one of the outlots. The purpose for amending the preliminary plat and SAO plan is remove Outlot K which is the City owned property upon which the Elks have an easement to allow use of the property for a golf course. The Elks have brought suit against the City alleging that the City has no rights to transfer density from the City owned Outlot K to the remainder of the Peninsula. Although the City Attorney's Office is 2 confident that the suit is without merit, the length of time necessary to litigate this matter may be a hinderance to the full development of the Peninsula. Therefore, the City proposes amending the development plan and preliminary plat to remove Outlot K and add an equal amount of open space (24 acres) on adjacent City-owned property. Density from this open space would be transferred to the developable part of the Peninsula just as it was from Outlot K. There are no other changes proposed. ANALYSIS: The final plat is in compliance with the approved preliminary plat and SAO plan. The portion of the plat and SAO plan that is being amended does not affect the First Addition for which final plat subdivision is being requested. The Public Works Office is reviewing construction drawings and documents. These must be approved prior to Council consideration of the final plat. The City Attorney's office is preparing legal papers for the plat. These must be completed prior to Council consideration. The Conditional Zoning Agreement also requires that covenants be prepared and approved as part of the development process. The covenants are currently being reviewed by staff. FEES: A water main extension fee of $395 per acre is required. No sanitary sewer fees apply in this area. Open space will be dedicated to the City so there are no open space fees required. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the approval of the rezoning of 24 acres from P, Public, to SAO-5, and the amended SAO plan, preliminary plat and the final plat for the Peninsula Neighborhood, First Addition, a 35.99 acre, 73-1ot subdivision, subject to approval of construction drawings and legal documents prior to Council consideration.

The reasons for this protest include the following: 1. The property in question was designated to be a "natural areas park" by ordinance number 00-3938, which was passed by council on June 29, 2000. A copy of this ordinance is attached. This ordinance should be complied with and the "natural areas park" should be preserved and not used for residential development. I am aware of no other circumstances under which designated parkland has been converted to private development. Additionally, there is no need to rezone this property. Instead, the property which is already controlled by the city and zoned for residential purposes should be developed. The use of park property to obtain additional density and for other development purposes sets an unfortunate precedent which will cause continued problems in the future. 2. The financial and other implications of using the property for private development purposes, including the effect on FEMA grant money, need to be carefully considered. 3. Numerous issues concerning secondary access, the procedural requirements for platting and the disposal of city property, etc. remain outstanding in connection with The Peninsula project. The city's haste to rezone and develop what the public was lead to believe would be a park is almost certain to result in additional difficulties which may be avoidable if more caution was taken. Thank you for your consideration of these issues.
