Hillside Estates 4th/CUP July 18, 1994 Page 2 . areas and topography to be considered in designing the preliminary plat. The plat consists of a variety of lot sizes with the smaller lots occurring in the north end of the plat which has no existing trees. Conversely, in the southwest corner of the plat where there are existing trees, the lot sizes are larger to provide for greater opportunity to save the trees during the construction of homes. ROADS Access to Hillside Estates 4th Addition may be achieved via Auburn Avenue, which will be extended from Hillside Estates 3rd Addition, or Zane Avenue off of 197th on the north end of the plat. Included in the plat are four (4) streets that terminate at the limits of the plat in anticipation of future road extensions to serve other areas for development. The proposed cul-de-sacs are all within the allowable standards stated in the subdivision ordinance. LOT SIZES . Based on the physical constraints and the natural features on the property, lot sizes within the Planned Unit Development vary from 10,500 square feet up to 29,000 square feet with an average size of roughly 13,000 square feet. Most of the lots typically have a frontage of approximately 85 feet and a depth of 125 to 150 feet. Upon review of the plat, the following lots present a concern and should be considered for revisions: tI . Lots 10-13, Block 1, are double frontage lots and should have a minimum depth of 135 feet. . Lot 1, Block 1, is encumbered by utility easement and has inadequate buildable area. . Lots 1 and 2, Block 3, have a depth of 103 feet. This should be increased to a minimum of 120 feet. . Lots 18 and 19, Block 3, have a minimum depth that should be increased. . There are several corner lots throughout the plat that have a width of less than 100 feet, which is the minimum requirement in a typical Rlc development. This reduction in lot width is one of the variations proposed by the developer as part of the Planned Unit Development. . The City's subdivision design standards require side lot lines to be substantially at right angles to straight lines and radial to curve streets. The proposed plat has some lots, primarily along 195th Street and Auburn Avenue, that should have their lot lines adjusted to meet this standard. . The developer has indicated that the preliminary plat is in the process of being revised in accordance with these comments and may be prepared to present the preliminary plat to the City Council with the revisions in accordance with the aforementioned statements.
