In March of 1986, the City approved a <br />division of the John Pillsbury estate allowing the <br />estate house on a 5 acre tract to be divided off for <br />independent sale with the remaining parcel B to be <br />combined with the adjacent Woodhill Country Club land. <br />The current subdivision involves a division of the <br />Outlot retained by Woodhill. Mr. McDowell proposes a 5 <br />lot division of the 17.5 acre area to be served by a <br />proposed private road with the exception of Lot 3 served <br />by an existing private (Pillsbury) driveway. Lot 2 does <br />not meet the required 200 feet of width 50 feet in from <br />the road right. -of -way. The developer proposes the road <br />at a minimum paved width of 20 fee; hoping to minimize <br />the loss of trees and major land alteration required <br />with road construction because of the difficult <br />topography. Because of specific safety standards, City <br />Engineer Cook has recommended the following design <br />:standards: <br />1. A 22 foot paved width. <br />2. Minimum width for the road section with the <br />retaining wall to be maintained at 26 feet to the <br />shoulder point of impact. <br />3. Cul-de-sac diameter must be 80 feet. <br />Regarding Woodhill Avenue, because it is substandard per <br />public road standards for a road that would now serve a <br />total of seven residential units, City Engineer Cook has <br />recommended the following: <br />1. A 80 feet diameter cul-de-sac installed at the <br />entrance to plat road to minimize traffic on private <br />road. <br />2. Additional right-of-way granted by applicant for <br />cul-de-sac. <br />17 <br />
