#2484 - Woodhill CC May 5, 1999 Page 9 4.Resulted in the Club's granting an access easement in favor of Lot 3, Woodhill Ridge (the lot which is not served by the private road) over Club property to Woodhill Avenue in the event the Co. Rd. 15 access is blocked. 1988 Maintenance Building CUP. In 1988 Woodhill applied for and was issued variances and a CUP for a new maintenance building to be located approximately 160' east of the Woodhill Ridge subdivision, and adjacent to the old driveway connecting to Woodhill Avenue. A portion of the old driveway bed was filled near the northwest comer of the maintenance building, in conjunction with the site grading for that building. The CUP/variance resolution does not address future use of the driveway connection to Woodhill Avenue. The only reference in the Planning Commission and Council minutes as to use of the old driveway was a negative response from the Club's sur\'eyor to Jeanne Mabusth's question whether the Woodhill Avenue connection would have to be opened during maintenance building construction. During the 1988 review process the concerns of the neighborhood were addressed, resulting in a relocation of the original proposed building site (north side of old driveway, 50' from west lot line) to the final location 160 ’ from the west lot line and on the south side of the old driveway. This placed it approximately 350’ from the actual house sites of each of the two nearest residential lots, and allowed for the saving of several trees, a screening barrier to the surrounding residential properties. The review process also resulted in a CUP approval condition that future complaints from adjacent residents about increased noise from the maintenance operation would allow the City to re-open the CUP for further review. C. Why is a Secondary Access Needed? For Whom? When? The Club was advised to define the concerns that have resulted in this request. The Club addresses this topic on pages 6-8 of Exhibit I (PLEASE READ!). In brief, the following topics are addressed: Increased traffic volume and speed on Co. Rd. 15 Temporar)' problems during Co. Rd. 15 improvements construction Expected greater volumes and speeds on Co. Rd. 15 once the improvements are completed - Raised elevation of Co. Rd. 15 - Left turns difficult and dangerous for member access from west Potential to reduce access to 15, making 15 safer - No other access points available to Club without acquisition - Other potential access locations which might be acquired/deveioped would have greater impacts on other neighborhoods. ;1
