Kliever Lake Fields Third Addition Jlllle 28, 2005 Page 2 Overview Existing Conditions The 12 acre site is currently undeveloped; it was platted as Outlot A of Kliever Lake Fields East. In May 2002, the City Council approved rezoning this property to R3 and the preliminary plat for Kliever Lake Fields East. This area was included in that plat as 68 townhouses. The layout has been revised so the applicant is has to reapply for preliminary plat approval. The northwest comer of the site is part of a storm pond that serves the east side of the Kliever Lake Fields development. The area is bounded on the north by County Road 12, on the east by Fillmore Street, on the south by 179th Street and 180th Lane and on the west by Kliever Lake Fields East. The site is zoned R3 which allows townhouses as a permitted use. Analysis Layout Lots and Density The plat consists of 78 row style, back-to-back townhouses and two common lots. The lots and structures comply with the setback requirements of the R3 District. Thirty lots are proposed in the center of the project with the remaining 48 units located around the perimeter. The units are in attached buildings with either six or eight units per building. There are nine 6-unit buildings and three 8-unit buildings. All of the 8-unit buildings are located in the center of the site and eight of the 6-unit buildings are located around the perimeter. The net density of the plat is 7.36units/ acre, which complies with the maximum density allowed. Streets, Access and Parking A single looped public street (Street A) is proposed. Access into the project will be via 180th lane and 179th Street. There will be no direct access to the site from County Road 12 or Fillmore Street. Eighteen of the townhouse will have direct access from Street A; the remaining units will have access from private drives. A 6 foot wide sidewalk is proposed along Street A. Off-street parking for both residents and guests is being provided. There are 35 designated off-street parking spaces for guests plus room for two cars in each driveway. There is also room in each garage for two cars. Parking on one side of Street A will be allowed and parking on both sides of 180th Lane and 179th Street is allowed. No parking will be allowed along the private drives. The layout of the private drives in the center of the loop will have to be reconfigured. A dead-end private drive, which is what these are, can serve no more than two structures or six units per side. The proposed drives exceed this requirement. The private drive will have to be connected so that it is no a dead-end. S:\PLANNlNG\Case Files\2005\P 05-09 Kliever Lakes Fields 3rd\P05-09PC6-28.doc
