Site Plan/Drainase The Crystal Bay Road area has also had drainage problems in the past. Redevelopment of properties has been the b^t opportunity to correct any drainage problems that may exist in these areas. The proposed grading plan does not fully address how all drainage from the house will be handled. The new house design will improve some drainage issues by moving the house further from the property line. Final plans shall include grading and house gutter systems (if required) to handle drainage. Final drainage plans shall be reviewed by the City Engineer to ensure drainage is properly directed. Staff Recommendation Staff recommends the size of the structure be reduced to a size not to exceed I.SOO s.f. and the building meet the minimum 10* side setbacks. A site plan that reflects a house meeting those standards would require review of a grading and drainage plan. The drainage plan would demonstrate if the site is capable of handling the size of house proposed. The City looks at what is best for the long term plan for the City. When ordinances were adopted for structural lot coverage the City adopted this to limit the amount of dexelopmcnt in neighborhoods, and create space between buildings. Additional structure also contributes towards additional hardcover which can negatively impact water quality by not allowing storm water to run across natural ground surface. The concept is to allow storm water to be slowed and to infiltrate into the ground. Staff can support the variances to permit lot area and lot width variances, as well as rear setback and hardcover variances for the 0-75' setback for the driveway and to permit over 25°o hardcover in the 75-250' setback to allow a reasonable sized house. If a 2 '/] story house is pemiitted we do recommend the new- house meet a minimum of a 10' side setback. pianninf Commt««lon Options for Action 1, Approve 2. Denial 3. Table 4.
