Memo to the Planning Commission/CU 96-19 <br /> February 25, 1997 <br /> Page 3 <br /> • Other Issues <br /> The change in residency really has no affect on the landscaping <br /> requirements, utilities or grading. However, it is worth mentioning that one <br /> of the reasons for changing the entrance into the project from Highland Road <br /> to Jackson was a safety concern for residents exiting onto Highland Road. <br /> There is a slight vertical curve on Highland Road as it extends west of <br /> Jackson. This curve contributes to a visibility concern for eastbound traffic <br /> on Highland Road. <br /> Recommendation <br /> It is recommended the Planning Commission consider amending the planned <br /> unit development agreement for Derrick Investment to eliminate the <br /> residency requirements from the original proposal of 55 years and older. <br /> Staff does not believe removing the residency requirement will have an <br /> impact on the "physical planning" of the townhouse project. The real issue is <br /> whether the Planning Commission and the City Council approved the <br /> rezoning and PUD based on the 55 years and older concept. If the <br /> Commission recommends approving the amendment to the planned unit <br /> • development agreement, staff would recommend adding a condition which <br /> reads as follows: <br /> • The plans be modified accordingly to provide adequate off street parking <br /> at a ratio of.5 parking stalls per unit. These additional parking stalls can <br /> be included as part of extended driveways, on-street parking on those <br /> streets 30 feet and wider, and at the end of driveways where additional <br /> parking stalls can be created. <br /> • <br /> \\elkriver\sys\shrdoc\planning\pc\cu96-19.doc <br />
