• • #13-3595 15 February 2013 Page 2 of 5 Proposed Lot 2: Lot 2 is proposed to have 38± feet in width at the cul-de-sac, and approximately 50 feet at the principal building setback. The suggested home site is set back about 80 feet from the cul-de-sac. It is 90 feet wide at the suggested building site and is proposed to be 0.65 acre in area; there is an unknown area of wetland on this property. Not shown on the Concept Plan within proposed Lots 1 and 2 is an easement for the existing sewer line that extends across those lots from Willow Drive to proposed Lot 3. The conceptual stormwater pond location appears to potentially interfere with this sewer line. Whether a formal easement for that line exists must be established. Proposed Lot 3: Lot 3 is proposed as a flag lot* which has 25±feet in width at the cul-de-sac and 135 feet in total width within the building envelope. This lot is also proposed to have two separate easements: a 20-foot wide existing utility easement containing the Hackberry neighborhood sewer line connection to the Long Lake sewer system, running from west to east and down the west lot line and a 20- foot wide drainage easement following the creek. The drainage easement cuts the building envelope in half. *Flag lots are not permitted. The City allows front lot/back lot layouts with special provisions outlined in City Code Sections 78-1370 & 82-256. Proposed Lot4 Lot 4 is proposed to be 1.08 acre in area and 48.77 feet of frontage; it has an existing home and is proposed to access off of the cul-de-sac. The utility and drainage easements from proposed Lot 3 continue onto this lot. Proposed Lots Lot 5 is proposed to contain 0.55 acres in area and 51.9 feet of frontage on the cul-de-sac. A 2,128 square foot home is shown situated in the proposed building envelope. Proposed Lot 6 Lot 6 is a corner lot with 83 feet of frontage on the proposed road/cul-de-sac and 235 feet on Willow Drive. A vegetated berm is within the 25 foot proposed setback to screen this lot from Willow Drive. Road Layout and Standards The applicant is proposing a 50 foot wide outlot to create a private road with a 100 foot cul-de-sac which conforms to the requirements within the Subdivision Ordinance for a local private road. The proposed paved width of the private road is shown as 25 feet where the Code requires 24 feet for 3 to 6 homes. The cul-de-sac is proposed to have a 70 foot paved diameter, where City Code requires an 80' paved diameter. Given that 6 homes will be served from the proposed roadway, and considering the shortness of the proposed roadway, parking for guests will be at a premium, and parking on Willow Drive should be avoided; therefore the road and cul-de-sac design should not be reduced in size/width from the current code standards. The cul-de-sac should extend further into the site if possible. This will not only better facilitate parking but allow additional options for snow storage. It is important to note that there should be a platted corridor to the property to the immediate
