The Coffin site has a mixed maple/bassw-ood w^s location <br />3 wetlands. The site plan provides a compromise ben%een .^et locauon. <br />which respects the woods and weUands, ^d the neighbor o ^ ® <br />west and north of the site. The two cul-de-sacs and present d ^, <br />which connects to Watertown Road are located to minimize their impact <br />adjacent homes and not encroach into the weUands. <br />Looping the cul-de-sacs west of the pond would add an additional 1/5 rmle <br />of su-eet. reduce the privacy for the homes on Cygnet <br />Street within 100 feet of their lots, delete proposed lot / and encircle me <br />wetland with a public street. Another alternative would be to connect the <br />cul-de-sacs between the wetlands through the woods. This seems <br />inconsistent with the site’s natural features. <br />The cul-de-sacs were located to provide two flag lots accessed from o^f^ot <br />A to lot 6 and ouUot B for lot 7. By using the outlets for driveways me lots <br />around me cul-de-sacs provide better home and septic locations on lots 5. <br />14 and 15, reduce hard cover near the wetlands and create two desirab e <br />lots wim me privacy desired in mese neighborhoods. The concern for <br />fire/public safely issues wim longer driveways may be addressed wiUi a <br />minimum driveway widm and turn-around space by the homes. Lots 6 <br />and 7 bom exceed 3 acres and are be lutiful soumerly walkout view lots <br />mat wiU complement me adjacent homes of Routson and C Swan Lake <br />Additions. <br />The Dickey site has an entirely different character than Coffin's open <br />pasture and cropland wim small, poorly drained class 1 and 2 wetlands <br />scattered on me site. The site design connects Countryside Drive with me <br />proposed public street from Old Crystal Bay Road. Discussions widi Uie <br />Countryside Manor residents indicate meir desire to remin tlieir cul-de-sac <br />ramer man connect me streets at mis time. Tandem will build a <br />temporary cul-de-sac yet plat a public street to connect to Countryside <br />Drive. This solution should meet me city's desire for a future through <br />street and me neighbors' desire to retain their privacy. <br />The proposed cul-de-sac which connects to Willow Drive docs not connect <br />to Manor Circle due to neighbors ’ concerns and traffic related reasons. <br />Eleven lots are served off mis street with the existing Dickey home <br />driveway to Watertown Road. New septic sites are required for the <br />existing Dickey house restricting access to me new cul-de-sac.
