ANALYSIS Lot Area and Yards RR-IB District Standards Lot Area Minimum of 2 acres dry buildable Lot Width 200’ Front Yard 50’ Side Yard 30’ Rear Yard 50* Subject Property Lot Area and Yards The applicant did not provide a survey that identifies the exact size and lot requirements for each lot. The width of the parcel along Watertown Road appears to be approximately 450 feet. The two lots abutting Watertown could meet the minimum lot width requirements. Staff is concerned about the size and shape of the three lots served by the cul-de-sac. The lots may or may not meet the lot width requirements at the required 50' fi-ont yard setback. Roadways and Access The proposed cul-de-sac is an extension of the cul-de-sac that serves the Crystal Creek subdivision. The proposed cul-de-sac may exceed the allowed length of 1,500 feet for a block. The radius of the cul-de-sac is required to be 50’. The sketch plan did not indicatethe length or radius of the cul-de- sac. The extension is shown from the temporary cul-de-sac in Crystal Creek. Note that lot 7 in Crystal Creek does not have firontage on a platted road or outlot. Roads that serve more than 7 units are required to be 28' paved minimum width. The width of the road in the Crystal Creek subdivision needs to be reviewed because this proposal adds more units.. Also, a copy of the maintenance agreement/homeowner’s association for the private road as extended into the proposed subdivision should be provided. No new curb cuts shall be provided fiom Watertown Road. A detailed road plan should be prepared for review by the City Engineer, Police and Fire Chiefs. The road system should be platted in such a manner that does not create a negative impact on existing lots. The size and location of the proposed cul-de-sac is not acceptable.
