13-3637 1Vovember 14,2013 Page 6 Additionally, the development is subject to the Stormwater and Drainage Trunk Fee, which should be based on an equivalence to the standard fee for the 1/2-acre zoning district given the lot sizes proposed. That fee is $5,765 per gross acre, and at 4.92 gross acres (net of Willow Drive r-o-w) amounts to $28,364.00. Lot Layout and Lot Standards The property is situated generally along the east side of Willow Drive just north of Watertown Road. Access to the property will be off of Willow Drive via a short public road with cul-de-sac. Minimum pertinent lot standards for the RPUD District are as follows: Minimum lot area: 15,000 s.f. Minimum lot width: 90' Minimum lot depth: 125' Setbacks: Front: 25' Side local street: 25' Side collector street: 50' Side interior to RPUD: 10' Side abutting non-RPUD land: 15' Rear: Lesser of 40' or 20% of lot depth Wetland boundary: 35' Note that 78-626(16)allows for flexibility in RPUD standards: (16) Flexibility. The uniqueness of each RPUD requires that specific�tions and standards for streets, utilit�es,public.facilities and subdivisions may be subject to modification from the city ordinances ordinarily governing them. The city council may tJzerefore approve streets, utilities,public facilities and[and subdivisions which are not in compli�nce with usual specifications or ordinance requirements, if it finds that strict adherence to suclz standards or requirements is not required to meet the intent of this section or to protect t/ae/zealth, safety or welfare of the residents of the RPtID, the surrounding area or the city as a whole. A review of characteristics of each proposed lot appears below. Issues or inconsistencies with RPUD code standards are highlighted in bold type: Lot 1, Block 1 Proposed Lot 1, Block 1 will have 0.32 acres of dry buildable land (13,997 s.f.) for the building site (slightly under the RPUD standard) with 0.56 acres of wetland behind it. This lot will be a corner lot, with the front lot line being the frontage along the new road. Proposed lot width is 91' meeting the RPUD standard. Proposed buildable envelope is shown meeting RPUD setbacks from front, interior side and wetland; however, as Willow Drive is defined as a collector road in the CMP, the side street setback to Willow should be 50' but is shown at 25'.
