#2484 - WoodhiU CC May 5,1999 Page 9 4. Resulted tn the Club’s granting an access easement in favor of I .ot 3, \VtM»i!hill Ridge (the lot which is not ser\’cd by the private road) over Club property to WoodhiU Avenue in the event the Co. Rd. 15 access is blocked 1988 Maintenance Building Cl 'P. In 1988 WoodhiU applied fnr and was issued variances and a CUP for a new maintenance building to be located approxim.i'.cls 160 ’ cast of tlie WoodhiU Ridge subdivision, and adjacent to the old driveway coiuiccting to WoodhiU Avenue. A portion of the old driveway bed was filled near the northwest comer of **'•• maintenance building, in conjunction wiUi the site grading for that building. ITte CUP/vanance resolution docs not address future use of the driveway connection to WoodhiU 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 surveyor to Jcanr.c Mabu^th's question whether the WoodhiU 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. 1 his placed it approximately 350’ fiom tl;e 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 rcsidonti.al properties. TIic review' process also resulted in n CUP approval condition lh.it future comp ’ *nts from adjacent residents about increased noise from the maintenance operation would allow the City to rc-open the CUP for further review C. Why is a Secondary Access Needed? For Whom? When? llic Club was advised to define the concen.s that have resulted in this request. The Club addresses this topic on pages 6-8 of Exhibit 1 (PLEASE READ!). In brief, the foUowi g topics arc addressed; Increased traffic volume and speed on Co. Rd. 15 Temporary ptoble.ms during Co. Rd. 15 improvements construction Expected greater volumes and speeds on Co, Rd. 15 once the improvements arc completed Raised elevation of Co. Rd. 15 Left turns difficult and danrerous 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/developed would have greater impacts on other neighborhoods.
