4.12 The applicant's propose a six foot tall privacy fence along Harnline Avenue and a portion of Oakcrest Avenue. Staff does not oppose the use of a fence. However, its style, location and the need for integrated landscaping to complement the fence is necessary (i.e. not simply a straight, board-on-board wood or stockade fence). 4.13 The proposed grading and utility plans are being reviewed by the Public Works Department. However, the grading plan does not currently indicate how storm water management will be addressed on the site. The applicantmust contact the Grass Lake Water Management Organization (GLWMO) to review storm water management requirements and work with Grass Lak� and the Roseville Public Works Department to achieve compliance. Residential development sites less than 2 acres in size within the GLWMO do not require on-site ponding. However, all drainage from hard surfaces and roofed areas must be directed to Hamlimg Avenue and Oakcrest Avenue, away form the residential properties on the east and south of the subj ect site. 4.14 No sidewalks are proposed for the dev�lopment, either along Oakcrest Avenue of Hamline Avenue. The City currently maintains a trail that lies along the west side of Hamline Avenue and extends from County Road C to County Road B2. The Community Development Staff suggests that access to the comer via a sidewalk be included in the proposal along the north side of lot 1 from the private access drive to Hamline Avenue. 4.15 The proposal calls for most interior treas to be removed from the parcel. However, trees located along the west, north, and east boundary property line will be preserved. A tree removal/preservation plan has been created by the applicant, which identifies those trees to be removed and preserved. This plan must be modified to include the measures to be used to protect all preserved trees, such as staking, fencing, and colored boundary. The applicant has also proposed landscaping for the development. This plan will need to be revised to include screening, berming and/or landscaping screening of parking areas, and proposed buildings from adjacent residential properties to the north, south and east. 4.16 If approved the 8 town home units a�1d the associated land will be rezoned to Planned Unit Developmentwith an underlying zoning of R-6, Townhouse District. 5.0 POLICY (Comprehensive Plan Consistency) & FISCAL IMPLICATIONS: 5.1 The ComprehensivePlan Goals and Policies include the following direction: From the Roseville ComprehensivePlan (2002) — Goals and Policies - Page 7 of 21.
