Council directed staff to present to the Planning Commission the issue of allowing additional paving improvements outside the approved single access drive at a maximum width of 20' within the front street setback areas of the Sugarwoods plat. The issue arises whenever specific site conditions require placement of either the entire house or portions of a house at the 50' setback line. If houses are placed at the front setback line, portions of backout drive and turnaround improvements (backout aprons, loop drives, Ys or Ts) must encroach the setback area. In preparation for the Planning Commission's review, staff and applicant's consultants met to discuss the various site conditions that would necessitate the placement of the house at the front street setback line and to develop standards to limit these improvements within the setback area (i.e. size or area of improvement would be dependent upon area of front street setback yard, amount of lineal footage adjacent to roadway, limits on improvement based on 50' of distance from garage to street). Council members may wish to review the staff memo presented for the Planning Commission's review (Exhibit A).
