21oning File #2046 August 17, 1995 Page 4 The proposal is to relocate fairways #15 and #16 slightly to the «xith%-est, to improve the golf course. No changes arc proposed to tecs or greens at this time. The proposal is merely to regrade an area of the two fairways, balancing the amount of earth movement to avoid any import or export of fill, thereby avoiding truck traffic. It is likely that a small pond on the upland will be constructed as pin of the fill balancing project. The work is to be done this fall, and revegetated immediately so that the course is in condition to be playable 1996. Discussion This proposal is pan of a long-term master plan for improvements of the course provided to applicant by Williams. Gill and Associates Staff reviewed the master plan and commented to the applicant in February regarding what types of permits would be needed for the many individual projects involved (see Exhibit K). Applicant has indicated that not ail of these projects will ultimately be undertaken, and those that do may take up to 5. 10. even 15 years before they do iKcur. The current proposal is merely for a redefinition of fairways #15 and #16. and likely will include creation of a small pond (3(X)0 - 5000 s.f.) as shown on the plan. This project may also include a minor drainage tile addition, which will not impact any existing wetlands. One of the benefits of relcKating the two fairways is to allow creation of the two acre lot (see Application #2047) northeast of the 16th fairway. The City Engineer has reviewed the proposed grading of fairways #15 and #16 and has indicated the grading appears acceptable from an engineering standpoint. He suggests however that, in addition to the normal drainage and utility easements we w»>uld acquire as part of the subdivision, the City should consider whether easements should be provided around the entire coif course property as part of that subdivision process. (See Application #2047. staff memo). The City has not been asked to approve the total master plan at this time. Therefore, the applicant should be advised that as individual projects are contemplated, each will need to be the subject of an additional CUP application. I i
