SUBJECT Conditional Use Permit for Autumn Creek Subdivision
MEETING DATE: October 3, 2005
BACKGROUND: This is a request for a conditional use permit to allow the creation of
two two unit townhouse lots in association with the Autumn Creek Subdivision. The
subdivision proposes 21 lots on approximately 8.69 acres. Of the 21 lots, 17 are
intended for single family and four are intended for townhouses. The property is also
scheduled for annexation and an initial zoning designation of R-2, Suburban
Residential. Townhouses are listed as a conditionally permitted use in the R-2 zoning
district subject to certain density limitations. The property is located north of Hwy 2
West on the east side of Hathaway Lane.
A public hearing on this proposal was held before the planning board for June 14,
2005 where it was continued to allow the developer an opportunity to revise the plan.
Previously the property was proposed for an initial zoning designation of R-3 and a
total of 27 lots with 15 single family lots and 12 townhouse lots. Because of concerns,
the subdivision was continued in order to allow the developer an opportunity to
address issues related to density, parkland, access and the safety concerns at the
intersection of Hwy 2 West and Hathaway Lane. A revised proposal was brought back
before the planning board at their September meeting.
The Kalispell Planning Department evaluated the proposal and noted that the revised
subdivision plans for the property attempted to address the planning board's and
neighborhood's concerns. The number of townhouses was decreased from an initial
total of 12 to four and the overall density reduced from 27 to 21. The staff
recommended approval of the conditional use permit subject to conditions and felt the
developers had done their best to address the issues.
At the public hearing on June 14, 2005 and the meeting held on September 13, 2005
there were several neighbors who expressed their opposition to the initial and revised
proposal citing concerns with density, neighborhood character and primarily the
safety of the access at the intersection of Hwy 2 West and Hathaway Lane. Their
primary concern had to do with access and the traffic going eastbound conflicting with
other eastbound traffic coming from Hartt Hill.

The board discussed the proposal and agreed the developers had made a sincere effort
to address the issues related to the development. However, they were still concerned
about the density and safety of the eastbound traffic along Hwy 2 West. The board
generally felt that since density was a primary :issue associated with the project, the
elimination of the townhouse lots would reduce the density, albeit in a limited way.
A motion was .made with amendments to address specific safety improvements related
to the roads, and to recommend approval of the conditional use permit. The motion
failed on a vote of one in favor and three opposed with Hull voting in favor and Norton,
Taylor and Hinchey voting in opposition. An Exhibit A is attached that outlines the
conditions considered by the board.
RECOMMENDATION: Consistent with the planning board's recommendation, the
conditional use permit allowing the creation of the townhouse lots should be denied by
the city council based on the following findings:
• The density exceeds that which is appropriate for the neighborhood and
subdivision.
• Townhouses are inconsistent with the character of the neighborhood.
• Elimination of the townhouse lots will reduce the overall density of the subdivision.
• The reduction of density in the subdivision will reduce the traffic and associated
safety issues.
Should the city council determine that the conditional use permit should be approved
for the creation of the townhouse lots, the findings outlined in stab report KCU-05-6A
should be adopted along with the appropriate conditions.
FISCAL EFFECTS: Potential minor positive impacts once fully developed.
ALTERNATIVES: As suggested by the city council.
Respectfully submitted,

Re: Conditional Use Permit for Autumn Creek Subdivision Preliminary Plat
Dear Jim:
The Kalispell City Planning Board met on September 13, 2005 to reconsider a request
for a conditional use permit to allow the creation of two two unit townhouse lots in
association with the Autumn Creek Subdivision. The subdivision proposes 21 lots on
approximately 8.69 acres. Of the 21 lots, 17 are proposed for single family and four
are proposed for townhouses. The property is also proposed for annexation and an
initial zoning designation of R-2, Suburban Residential. Townhouses are listed as a
conditionally permitted use in the R-2 zoning district subject to certain density
limitations. The property is located north of Hwy 2 West on the east side of Hathaway
Lane.
A public hearing on the Autumn Creek Subdivision was held before the planning
board on June 14, 2005 where it was continued to allow the developer an opportunity
to address issues that were raised at the meeting. The initial proposal was for an
initial zoning designation of R-3 and a total of 27 lots consisting of 15 single family
lots and 12 townhouse lots. The issues were related to density, parkland, access and
the safety concerns at the intersection of Hwy 2 West and Hathaway Lane. The
revised proposal was brought back before the planning board at their September
meeting. All of the adjoining property owners notified of the first public hearing were
notified of the reconsideration of the revised proposal and of their opportunity to
present comments.
Narda Wilson of the Kalispell Planning Department, presented staff report #KCU-05-
6A (amended) and evaluated the proposal. She noted the revised subdivision plans for
the property attempted to address the planning board's and neighborhood's concerns.
The number of townhouses was decreased from an initial total of 12 to four and the
overall density reduced from 27 to 21. The staff recommended approval of the
conditional use permit subject to same conditions associated with the preliminary

plat. She felt the developers had done their best to address the issues that were
raised.
At the public hearing on June 14, 2005 and the meeting held on September 13, 2005
there were several neighbors who expressed their opposition to the both the initial and
revised proposal citing concerns with density, neighborhood character and the safety
of the access at the intersection of Hwy 2 West and Hathaway Lane. Their primary
concern had to do with access and the traffic going eastbound conflicting with other
eastbound traffic coming from Hartt Hill.

meeting. You may contact this board or Narda Wilson at the Kalispell Planning
Department if you have any questions regarding this matter.

STAFF REPORT #KCU-05-6A (A,MENDED)
SEPTEMBER 7, 2005
This is a report to the Kalispell City Planning Board and Kalispell City Council regarding
a request for a conditional use permit to allow the creation of two two unit townhouse
lots in a 21 lot subdivision proposed for annexation and an initial zoning of an R-2
residential zone. A public hearing was held before the planning board on June 14,
2005, in the Kalispell City Council Chambers and the matter was continued until this
date. Revisions have been made the to development proposal intended to address the
planning board's concerns The planning board will forward a recommendation to the
city council for final action.

B. Summary of Request: The applicant is requesting a conditional use permit to
allow the creation of two two unit townhouse lots in a 21 lot subdivision known as
Autumn Creek. Submitted concurrently with this conditional use permit is a
preliminary plat, along with a petition for annexation and an initial zoning
designation of R-2, Suburban Residential. Within the subdivision there would be
two lots for two unit townhouses for a total of four townhouse sublots and 17 single
family lots on approximately 8.69 acres. Townhouses are allowed in the zoning
district as a conditionally permitted use. The townhouse provision in the zoning
ordinance falls under Section 27.22.130, Sublots, and states the following:
"Dwellings may be constructed on sublots within any zoning district which
permits multi -family dwellings, cluster housing, or townhouse dwellings. Sublots
are subject to subdivision approval and, if required, a conditional use permit.
(1) . Site Requirements.
(a). Sublots are eligible only within a recorded subdivision lot whose
area is at least 6,000 square feet.
(b). The allowable number of sublots shall be determined by dividing the
gross area of the platted lot by the density limits of the applicable
zoning district. In the event that the design utilizes common
ownership of common areas, the area of the lot(s) plus the common
area shall be divided by the density limits of the applicable zoning
district to determine the allowable number of sublots. In no case,
however, shall a sublot have an area less than 2,000 square feet nor
more than one dwelling unit thereon.
(2). Building Limitations. The yard, height, and area requirements of the
district shall apply to the entire area of the platted lot. Common ownership
of the yards is permitted. Shared interior property boundary(ies) is
anticipated to be developed at a zero lot line.
Density is determined based on dividing the minimum lot size requirements of the
district in the R-2 zone of 9,600 square feet into the net area to be considered.
The entire area included within the subdivision is 8.69 acres including
approximately 1.85 acres in a wetland area, 1.6 acres in roads and .029 acres in
park. The total net area in lots is 4.95 or 215,622 square feet. The maximum
allowable density based on 9,600 square feet would be a maximum of 22 lots.
The proposed 21 lots is within the total number of lots allowed under this density.
C. Size and Location: The property proposed for subdivision and this conditional use
permit contains approximately 8.69 acres and lies north of Hwy 2 West,
approximately 1,100 feet on the east side of Hathaway Lane. The property can be
described as Assessors Tracts 6AAK, 6131 and 6AB located in Section 12, Township
28 North, Range 22 West, P.M.M., Flathead County, Montana.
D. Existing Land Use and Zoning: The area being considered for this conditional use
permit is currently undeveloped with the exception of a pole barn at the south
boundary of the property which will be removed. In the past the property was used
primarily for grazing or light agriculture. Currently this property is in. the County
zoning jurisdiction and is zoned R-1, Suburban. Residential, which has a one acre
minimum lot size requirement and is typically in areas not served by public water
and / or sewer. The property is proposed for annexation and an initial zoning
designation of R-2, Suburban Residential. The preliminary plat for the proposed 21
lot subdivision has also been filed concurrently with the conditional use permit,
annexation and zoning. The R-2 zoning designation has a minimum lot size
requirement of 9,600 square feet and is generally limited to single family detached
houses, except as otherwise provided under the zoning ordinance, i.e. a conditional
use permit for townhouses or other non-residential uses listed in the district.
E. Surrounding Zoning and Land Uses Zoning: This property is located in an area
that could be considered to be on the urban fringes of Kalispell with the city limits
within one quarter mile of this area. Development pressures have not been as
intense in this area as they are in other fringe areas around the city. All of the
zoning surrounding this site is County R-1, Suburban Residential, a, district with a
one acre minimum lot size requirement for newly created lots. The property is
currently in the West Side Zoning District, but upon annexation would become part
of the city of Kalispell with a City zoning assignment.
North: Single family residential, County R-1 zoning
South: Single family residential, County R-1 zoning
East: Undeveloped pasture land, City RA-1 zoning
West: Single family residential, County R- l zoning
2
F. Growth Policy Plan Designation: The Kalispell City Growth Policy designates this
area as Suburban Residential and anticipates four dwelling units per acre. Autumn
Creek has a density of approximately 2.33 dwellings per acre. The proposal is in
compliance with the growth policy's anticipated density and also furthers the goals
and policies of the growth policy by encouraging a diversity of housing options in the
community.

EVALUATION OF THE REQUEST
The application is reviewed in accordance with the conditional use review criteria in the
Kalispell Zoning Ordinance.
1. Site Suitability:
a. Ade uate Useable Space: The total area of the lots within the subdivision
is 4.95 acres or 2215,622 square feet. Based on this area, and the density
of one dwelling per 9,600 square feet the density would be 22 dwelling
units. The proposed 21 lots within the subdivision is within the total
number of lots allowed under this density. Excluded from the net area
calculations is a wetland area containing approximately 1.85 acres of
unusable space that will be owned in common, 1.60 acres in road and 0.29
of an acre in park. The proposed density complies with the limits of the R-
2, Suburban Residential, zoning district.
b. Adequate Access: Access to the lots will be good with access from a new
city street that will be constructed to current City standards with curb,
gutter, sidewalks, boulevard and a paved 28 foot wide roadway. Traffic
projections for this subdivision are estimated to be approximately 170 to
210 additional individual vehicle trips per day based on the estimate of 8 to
10 vehicle trips per residence per day in the area onto Hathaway Lane and
US Hwy 2. The internal subdivision roads will be constructed to City
standards and would include curb, gutter, sidewalks and landscape
boulevards within the subdivision. Hathaway Lane is a rural roadway with
a pavement width of between 22 to 24 feet with drainage swales and no
pedestrian access. The impacts of this subdivision to Hathaway Lane will
generally double its current use. The roadway appears to be in fair
condition and may require some improvements based on the requirements
of the Flathead County Road Department. A referral was sent to that
3
department for comments but at the writing of this report none have been
received. Access onto Hwy 2 West from Hathaway Lane appears to be in
marginal condition and will likely require some improvements such as
widening and repaving. The access from Hathaway Lane onto Hwy 2 West
is at the bottom of "Hart Hill" and there is potential for delays accessing the
highway during peak traffic hours such as morning and evening commuter
traffic. The developer will need to contact the Montana Department of
Transportation and the Flathead County Road Department regarding
potential upgrades to the intersection as well as Hathaway Lane.
Additionally, a note should be placed on the final plat which waives protest
to the creation of a special improvement district for the upgrade of
Hathaway Lane to urban standards. Overall there will be some moderate
impacts to Hathaway Lane and insignificant impacts to Hwy 2 West as a
result of this subdivision which already experiences large traffic volumes.
Subsequent to the June 2005 planning board meeting where this project
was tabled; the staff, developer and engineer met on site with the County
Road Department Superintendent Charlie Johnson to discuss potential
improvements to Hathaway Lane and its intersection with Hwy 2 to
mitigate potential safety issues. Additionally, the developer has consulted
with the Montana Department of Transportation regarding improvements to
the intersection of Hathaway Lane and Hwy 2 West. Those would generally
include the widening of the shoulder for a right turn lane crest bound and
widening of the radius and a portion of Hathaway Lane. Letters from the
County and State have been included with the submittal addressing those
issues.
The Kalispell Bypass corridor crosses the northeast corner of the
subdivision and should be indicated on the final plat as being reserved for
future acquisition by the State. The preliminary plat has indicated the
bypass corridor with shading but it is not labeled as such. This corner of
the property that is in the bypass corridor appears to contain
approximately one third of an acre and should be platted as a separate
parcel for future acquisition, by the state and not made part of the lots.
C. Environmental Constraints: According to FIRM Panel 1850 and there is an
area of significant floodplain on the site as a result of a tributary to Ashley
Creek that runs through the site and also creates a substantial wetland
area. This area is in a non -detailed study area and will need to undergo a
detailed study that will then be reviewed and accepted by FEMA. At that
time a base flood elevation will be established. The property owner has
been working on a floodplain study with the local engineering firm Thomas,
Dean and Hoskins and an analysis will be submitted to FEMA for review.
Prior to the fling of a final plat a detailed study of the area will need to be
approved by FEMA in order to establish the base flood elevation. The
Kalispell Subdivision Regulations Section 8.05, Floodplain Provisions,
prohibit the creation of lots in the 100 year floodplain or the floodway.
Should the results of the study reflect what has been, submitted as the
assumed floodplain it does not appear that lots or structures are proposed
to be located in the floodplain area, but until a detailed study has been
accepted by FEMA establishment of the base flood elevation is inconclusive
4
There is currently a culvert that is located under Hathaway Drive that
channels the creek and discharges at the northwest corner of this property.
Any work within the 100 year f.00dplain that would occur after
annexation such as for road building purposes would have to be obtained
from the City of Kalispell Floodplain Administrator.
2. Appropriateness of design:
a. Parking and site circulation_: All of the roads within the subdivision will be
constructed to City standards and will end in two cul-de-sacs. Within the
environment this property is located there is no real potential for the
creation of a connected road system. Parking will be provided on site at the
time the lots are developed. No additional parking beyond the standard
two parking spaces per single family dwelling would be required in
conjunction with this conditional use permit.
b. 0-pen Space: An approximately 1.35 acre open area that lies in the 100
year floodplain and is clearly a wetland area has been designated on the
final plat. It will be owned and managed by the homeowners within the
subdivision, but does not provide for a recreational amenity per se. An
approximately 0.29 acre park has been included in the subdivision with a
recreational trail along the wetland area. The park is not large enough for
the City to take over, but would encourage its development for the
residents within the subdivision.
C. Fencing/ Screening Larndsca in : There is no buffer or screening currently
existing on the site or proposed other that the wetland area located
between Hathaway Larne and the lots within the subdivision nor does any
appear warranted. There is some fencing on the site that will be removed
with development.
d. Signs: No specific dimensions or drawing of a sign was included with the
application for a subdivision sign The zoning allows one sign 24 square
feet in size, and a height not to exceed six feet. A permit for the sign would
be required.
3. Availability of Public Services/Facilities:
a. Schools: This site is within School District 05. Limited impact is
anticipated from the proposed townhouse units. Approximately 10 to 12
additional school aged children might be generated as a result of the
creation of the four additional townhouse lots within the subdivision.
b. Parks and Recreation: There is no park that lies within walking distance of
this subdivision. Parkland dedication requirements are fully discussed in
the preliminary plat staff report and a coordinated plan shall be developed
with the developer and the parks and recreation director.
C. Police: Police protection will be provided by the Kalispell Police Department.
No unusual impacts or needs are anticipated from the proposed residential
facility.
5
d. Fire Protection. Fire protection will be provided by the Kalispell Fire
Department. No unusual impacts or needs are anticipated from the
proposed townhouses. Building access as well as the number and
placement of fire hydrants will need to meet Uniform Fire Code
requirements and be reviewed and approved by the fare marshal.
e. Water and sewer: Water and sewer are not currently in place and will need
to be extended to the site. There is adequate water supply and sewage
treatment capacity within the City of Kalispell's current facilities to serve
this development.
f Solid Waste. Solid waste pick-up will be provided by a private hauler for
five years from the date of annexation.. Solid waste will be taken to the
County Landfill where adequate capacity exists.
g. Streets: Traffic generation from the development is estimated at 170 to 210
average additional daily trips that might be generated into the area as a
result of the creation of these additional lots based on the estimate of 8 to
10 vehicle trips per residence per day in the area onto Hathaway Lane and
US Hwy 2. The internal subdivision roads will be constructed to City
standards and would include curb, gutter, sidewalks and landscape
boulevards within the subdivision. Hathaway Lane is a rural roadway with
a pavement width of between 22 to 24 feet with drainage swales and no
pedestrian access. The impacts of this subdivision to Hathaway Lane will
generally double its current use. The. roadway appears to be in fair
condition and may require some improvements based on the requirements
of the Flathead County Road Department.
The developer has been working with the County Road Department to
assess improvements to Hathaway Lane. Access onto Hwy 2 West from
Hathaway Lane appears to be in marginal condition and will likely require
some improvements such as widening and repaving. The access from
Hathaway Lane onto Hwy 2 West is at the bottom of "Hart Hill" and there is
potential for delays accessing the highway during peak traffic hours such
as morning and evening commuter traffic. The developer will need to
contact the Montana Department of Transportation and the Flathead
County Road Department regarding potential upgrades to the intersection
as well as Hathaway Lane. Additionally, a note should be placed on the
final plat which waives protest to the creation of a special improvement
district for the upgrade of Hathaway Lane to urban standards. Overall
there will be some moderate impacts to Hathaway Lane and insignificant
impacts to Hwy 2 West as a result of this subdivision which already
experiences large traffic volumes.
The Kalispell Bypass corridor crosses the northeast corner of the
subdivision and should be indicated on the final plat as being reserved for
future acquisition by the State. The preliminary plat has indicated the
bypass corridor with shading but it is not labeled as such. This corner of
the property that is in the bypass corridor appears to contain
approximately one third of an acre, and should be reserved for future
2
acquisition by creating a separate parcel for conveyance.
4. Neighborhood impacts: Development and land use impacts associated with this
subdivision and the creation of the two unit townhouses will be typical of any single
family development. The properties in this neighborhood are located in the County
and are suburban residential in nature. A notice of public hearing was mailed to
property owners within 150 feet of the site approximately 15 days prior to the
hearing. The staff received a petition from the property owners opposing the
subdivision in general but not the townhouses per se. The petition was been
included in the preliminary plat staff report from the June 2005 meeting.
This project was continued from the June 2005 meeting. Although another public
hearing will not be held, the planning office notice the same property owners within
150 feet acid advised them they could comment on the project under "Hear to
Public" portion of the planning board meeting. No comments to date have been
received by staff.
5. Consideration of historical use patterns and recent changes: The proposal is
generally compatible within the subdivision. It can be anticipated with public water
and sewer available to the area that increased development similar to the type that
is being proposed will continue to occur. Additionally, the two unit townhouse
configuration has become a popular housing option in the market as the
demographics of the area change. It has become popular for an aging population
wanting to downsize, for small families entering the market and "empty nesters"
wanting less responsibility in maintenance.
6. Effects on property values: No significant negative impacts on property values are
anticipated. As previously mentioned, the proposal is compatible with the
neighborhood, and the development and land use impacts would be typical of that
anticipated for the area.

AUTUMN CREEK SUBDIVIISION
APPLICATION FOR CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
CITY OF KALISPELL
Introduction
Our client, New Nest Properties, L.L.C., is proposing a new subdivision. The proposed
Autumn Creek Subdivision is located west of Kalispell on Hathaway Lane 1,500 feet
north of Highway 2. The subdivision will include 21 lots, approximately 0.2 acres each.
The legal description of the subdivision is Track 6DI, 6AAK and 6AB, Section 12, T28N,
R22W. A conditional use permit is requested to allow for 2-unit townhouses on 6 of the
21 lots.
1. Zoning District and Zoning; Classification in which use is proposed:
The proposed subdivision is zoned R-3 urban single family residential. Townhouses are
permitted in R-3 subdivision with filing of a conditional use permit.
2. Attach a plan of the affected lots containing:
a. Surrounding Land Uses
Activities and land uses surrounding the proposed subdivision include agriculture, single-
family homes, horse owners, and other subdivisions. The northeast corner of the
subdivision may be dedicated to the Montana Department of Transportation for highway
right of way.
b. Dimensions and Shape of Lots
See attached site plan for dimensions and shapes of lots. Lots containing townhouses and
requiring an additional use permit include lots 6,7,8,9,15 and 21.
c. Topographic Features of Lots
See attached site plan for topography of proposed subdivision.
d. Size and Location of Existing Buildings
A pole barn is currently the only building structure onsite. It will be removed prior to
construction.
e. Size and Location of Proposed Buildings
See attached site plan for location of proposed buildings.
E Existing Use of Structures and Open Areas
Currently the subject property is not being used. Previous uses for the subject property
included farmland and grazing pasture. A tributary to Ashley Creek flows on the
southwestern portion of the site. This area will be left natural -and an open/conservation
area will be formed.
g. Proposed Use of Structures and Open. Areas
The subject property will primarily be used for roads, homes and yards. The
open/conservation area, approximately 2 acres, will be left natural and provide scenic
viewing opportunities. Arrangements have been nude to remove the existing pole barn.
It. Existing and Proposed Landscaping and Fencing
Each lot will be landscaped and seeded with grass. Fencing will be located along the
north and south property lines. Existing wire fence on the property will be removed.
3. Discussion of relative topics:
a. Traffic Flow and Control
The transportation network servicing Autumn Creek Subdivision is shown on the
preliminary plat. Access to the property will come from Hathaway Lane, 1,500 feet north
of Highway 2.
The northwest corner of the property may be dedicated to Montana Department of
Transportation for highway right of way. This right of way is in anticipation of a bypass
route. There will be no access, to or from the property, through this highway right of
way.
At full build -out, the subdivision may generate a maximum of 270 vehicle trips per day.
Trip direction from the subdivision is most likely going to be a left turn, from the
subdivision, onto Hathaway Lane towards Highway 2. Traffic is then expected to turn
left on Highway 2, and head east into Kalispell. Traffic due to this subdivision is not
expected to impact the existing roadway system. The county, state, and city
transportation networks in the. region can adequately accommodate the anticipated
vehicle trips from this subdivision,
b. Access To and Within the Property
All lots will have driveway access from the internal subdivision roads. Internal
subdivision road right of way will be 60 feet. Minimum pavement widths of 28 feet will
be maintained throughout the subdivision. The roads will be designed to Kalispell City
Standards. As stated above, access to the property will come from Hathaway Lane 1,500
feet north of Highway 2. Two internal subdivision roads are proposed, each ending in a
cul de sac. Each cul de sac has been designed, according to Kalispell City Standards,
with a 66-foot radius to the back of the curb. Circulation and flow is not expected to be a
problem.
c. Off Street Parking and Loading
Individual garage spaces and driveways will accommodate off-street parking. Loading
berths are not required for the subdivision and have not been included.
d. Refuse and Service Areas
The collection of refuse will fall under the City of Kalispell's jurisdiction. Individual
garbage units are proposed for each lot in the subdivision.
e. Utilities
Upon development, utilities will be extended to service the subdivision. Municipal sewer
and water will service the subdivision. Currently, gas and electric utilities run along the
western boundary of the property.
f. Screening and Buffering
Autumn Creek Subdivision will be incorporating natural and manmade screening and
buffering. The developer has agreed to install screening on the northern property line of
the property at the request of a neighboring homeowner. Screening will also be placed on
the southern property line along with natural screening and buffering. Trees and natural
surface waters create a separation from surrounding properties to the west and south.
g. Signs, Yards and other Open Spaces
Signing for the subdivision will consist of street signs and will conform to Kalispell City
Standards. A ground -mounted sign identifying the subdivisions is proposed near the
entrance. Typical grass yards are expected for each lot in the subdivision, including the
proposed lots containing townhouses. Minimum yard requirements for R-3 subdivisions
will be maintained on each lot, including townhouse lots. An open/conservation area is
proposed for the southwest portion of the property. A tributary to Ashley Creek flows
through this open area.
h. Height, Bulk and Location of Structures
Location of structures and layout of the subdivision can be seen on the attach site plan.
All lots of the subdivision, including proposed townhouse lots, will conform to R-3
Property Development Zoning Regulations. Height of structures is not expected to
exceed 2 stories and will remain under the maximum height of 35 feet.
i. Location of Proposed Open Space Uses
An approximate 2-acre openJcon.servation area will be located in the southwestern
portion of the property. This area will be left natural and allow for scenic viewing and
beautification of the property.
j. Hours and Manner of Operation
The proposed subdivision will be composed of family housing. Hours and manner of
operation will be typical of urban single-family residential subdivisions.
k. Noise, Light, Dust, Odors, Fumes and Vibration.
Noise, light, dust, odors, fumes and vibration will not increase significantly for this site.
Dust may increase during construction, but all internal roads and parking will be paved,
so dust will be minimal upon completion of the construction. Noise, light, dust, odors,
fumes and vibration will be typical of urban single-family residential subdivisions.
