Gaffron JML Planning Dept. <br />Title: Senior Planner <br />______________________________________________________________________________ <br />Item Description: 16-3822 Lakewest Development, 3245 Wayzata Boulevard West <br />- Preliminary Plat / RPUD Rezoning - Resolution <br />______________________________________________________________________________ <br />List of Exhibits <br /> A – Resolution - Preliminary Plat & General Concept Plan Approval <br /> B – Revised Plans Submitted 7/14/16 <br /> C – Draft Council Minutes 7/11/16 <br /> <br />Pursuant to Council direction at the July 11 meeting and subsequent review by City Engineer, <br />staff and City Attorney, a preliminary plat approval and general concept plan approval resolution <br />has been finalized and is attached for Council consideration and adoption. <br />Resolution revisions since the July 11 meeting are highlighted in yellow in the Resolution. <br />Significant revisions to note include the following: <br />Pages 4-5-6: The sections regarding Conservation Design, Tree and Woodland Impacts, and <br />Landscaping have been added. <br />Page 7: The Floor Area Ratio (FAR) section has been revised to note that the overall FAR as <br />proposed is acceptable based on submitted conceptual footprints and home designs which will be <br />reviewed for general conformity with the conceptual plans as individual permits are issued. <br />Page 8: After discussion among staff/attorney/engineer, we are recommending the following <br />with regard to streets: <br />a. East-west segment to be platted as private outlot; 28’ width in 40’ corridor; <br />b. North-south segment to platted as public road; 32’ width in 50’ corridor; <br />c. At east end, construct a cul-de-sac rather than a T backup system. The basis for this is <br />that the vast majority of service vehicles such as delivery trucks, garbage trucks, moving <br />vans, etc. will be better served by a cul-de-sac than a T, and that the T likely would only <br />be used on rare occasions by the fire department. There is also a concern that the T would <br />not be maintained to the extent necessary to keep it available at any time and may <br />become an alternate parking area. To accommodate emergency access if main access is <br />blocked, a surmountable emergency-service-only surface to be developed between the <br />cul-de-sac and Wayzata Boulevard. <br />d. Both N-S and E-W street segments to be maintained by HOA (N-S will be subject to a <br />maintenance agreement with City such that City may choose to maintain as public road at <br />some future date depending on future development within landfill area).
