S. The council may establish vaned and reasonable lot area, frontage, sideyard, and setback requirements for a PUD and may authon�Ze a density P)hich it determines to be appropriate under the circumstances. Any permitted density shall be consistent Pith the city's comprehensive plan and not adversely affect the public health, safety and nvr fare. The typical lot area, frontage, and setback requirements for the R -1c zoning district, which is the most comparable single-family district, are 11,000 square feet, 80 foot minimum width, and 30 foot front yard setbacks. The side yard setbacks differ, but a minimum of 15 feet between buildings is maintained. The proposal includes four different lot types, all of which are below the R -1c standard. The largest lots are approximately 75 feet wide and 9,750 square feet with 15 feet between buildings. The smallest lots are 44 feet wide and 5,720 square feet with 10 feet between buildings. Front yard setbacks for all lot types are 25 feet. The reduced width, size, and setbacks are permissible via the PUD process, but the final dimensions/size can be adjusted by the City Council or recommended for change by the Planning Commission. 9. More than one principal building may be constructed on a lot P)ithin a PUD if authon�Zed by the council. Unless athena ise permitted by the council, a PUD shall comply Pith the schedules of dimensional regulations set forth in this article, except that individual lots shall have no less than 80 percent of the minimum area for similar uses. Each principal building will be located on its own lot. Approval of a PUD also requires satisfying all of the conditions for approval of a Conditional Use Permit. Conditions for approval are as follows. 7. 1Vill not endanger, injure or detrimentally affect the use and enjoyment of otherpropeay in the immediate vicinity or thepublic health, safety, morals, comfort, convenience orgeneral nvr fare of the neighborhood or the city. The project will not detrimentally affect the use and enjoyment of other property in the immediate vicinity. The PUD is adequately served by existing and proposed transportation networks. Traffic and transportation impacts identified during the previous EAW remain valid. 2. 1Vill be consistent Pith the comprehensive plan. The comprehensive plan guides this area for urban residential uses with a maximum density of 8 dwelling units per acre and an average density of 3 to 4 dwelling units per acre. After removing the non -buildable areas, the average density of the development is approximately 3.5 units per acre. The comprehensive plan also guides this area for single-family and detached townhome style units. The proposal is consistent with the comprehensive plan. 3. 1Vill not impede the normal and orderly development and improvement of surrounding vacantproperty. The project will not impede the normal and orderly development of the surrounding properties. The proposed configuration of lots, grading, stormwater, and right-of-way alignments maintain the development potential of the surrounding lots. The applicant has spoken with the adjacent property owner to ensure their ability to develop is not restricted. 4. 1Vill be served adequately by and Pill not adversely affect essential public facilities and services including streets, police and fire protection, drainage, refuse disposal, Pater and sen)er systems, parks and schools; and Pill not, in particular, create traf c congestion or interference Pith traf c on adjacent and neighboring public thoroughfares. There is some concern that the configuration of parcels may impact refuse disposal and plowing. The configuration of the driveways in the detached townhome areas has the potential to adversely affect these services, specifically along Edison Street as there are 37 driveways along a short roadway segment. Nearby residents have also expressed concerns over traffic congestion and traffic on neighboring public streets. To alleviate these concerns, residents requested removing the Lincoln Street connection and completing a traffic study. The Planning Commission can recommend either request to the City Council.
