PF15-010_RPCA_090215 <br />Page 4 of 5 <br />aggressive proposal and will present some long term maintenance that the new homeowners 96 <br />should be aware of. 97 <br />c. At this time, the Engineering department was not presented with any information for the 98 <br />alignment or design of water and/or sanitary sewer infrastructure to serve the proposed 99 <br />homes. A private sanitary sewer main and water main will be required that will then serve the 100 <br />individual private services to each proposed home, and maintenance of these facilities will be 101 <br />the responsibility of the Homeowners Association. Review and approval of this infrastructure 102 <br />will occur through the building permit review process. 103 <br />PUBLIC COMMENT 104 <br />Planning Division staff has received one email, which is included with this RPCA as part of 105 <br />Attachment D, and one phone call from a nearby homeowner who was curious about the 106 <br />application and who expressed support for proposal if it meets the applicable standards (e.g., 107 <br />storm water management, lot size, tree preservation, etc.) despite its perceived impacts on less 108 <br />tangible things (e.g., neighborhood character). 109 <br />CONCEPT REVIEW 110 <br />On October 20, 2014, Mr. Mueller brought a sketch of his subdivision proposal to the City 111 <br />Council for guidance as to what changes to the previous proposals would give Councilmembers 112 <br />the confidence that a subsequent plat application would meet City requirements and not 113 <br />compromise the health, safety, general welfare, convenience, and good order of the community. 114 <br />The proposed sketch plan and the minutes of this discussion are included with this RPCA as 115 <br />Attachment E, and a brief list of the Council’s direction follows. 116 <br />• Lot lines must be perpendicular to street to conform to code: 117 <br />the current plat proposal achieves this. 118 <br />• Consider routing storm water to the City storm sewer system with less overland flow: 119 <br />storm water is infiltrated into several basins distributed around the property rather than 120 <br />flowing over land to one large basin. 121 <br />• Consider a 32-foot wide street to allow parking on both sides rather than parking pads: 122 <br />the current proposal accomplishes this. 123 <br />• Minimize impervious surface while still accommodating adequate parking: 124 <br />The drainage plan adequately accounts for two garage stalls and four driveway stalls per 125 <br />lot in addition to a 32-foot wide street that would allow six cars parked along the south 126 <br />side and seven more parked along the north side, for a total of 37 parking spaces (i.e., 127 <br />9.25 parking spaces per lot). 128 <br />• Be aware that storm water management needs may limit the number of lots: 129 <br />the proposed storm water plan meets applicable standards for the 4-lot plat. 130 <br />• Majority of Councilmembers favor a private street: 131 <br />the proposal includes a private street 132
