Memo to the Mayor and City Council/P 97-9 May 19, 1997 Page 2 involve additional street construction including a connection along the west portion of the development to County Road No. 1. This connection will provide two access points into the development; one off of County Road No. 1 and the other off Proctor Avenue. The development was approved with sidewalks being constructed along the primary route through the development. This route includes the entrance off of Proctor Avenue and along the road that winds through the development ultimately ending up at County Road No. 1. The sidewalk in the first phase is expected to be built in the next couple of weeks and there will also need to be a short segment of sidewalk built in the southwest portion of the second addition along Upland to County Road No. 1. The proposed second addition of Lafayette Woods has some slight deviations from the preliminary plat that was originally approved. The variation is primarily related to the number of lots included on the final plat. The final plat has been adjusted by eliminating two lots. Other than the number of lots, the final plat is consistent with the preliminary plat that was .originally approved by the City Council. The developer has submitted a grading and development plan for the entire development that is being reviewed by Terry Maurer. It is anticipated that the entire site will be rough-graded in accordance with an approved grading plan by Terry Maurer to accommodate the balancing of dirt on this large site. During the grading of the site, measures will be taken to preserve as many trees as possible. Fence Adiacent to Ridgewood During the preliminary plat review of Lafayette Woods there was some concern from the Ridgewood subdivision immediately to the north that there may need to be some type of fence or barricade constructed along the north borders of this plat, due to the private ski hill in the Ridgewood subdivision. As a condition of the final plat approval in the first phase, the Council included a condition which read: "A review of the possible need for a security fence between the proposed development and Ridgewood subdivision be made by the City Council prior to the final plat approval of that phase closest to Ridgewood subdivision." The second phase of Lafayette Woods does not go all the way to the north border adjacent to Ridgewood, however, there may be residents in attendance from Ridgewood subdivision ready to discuss the fence issue.
