STAFF ANALYSIS PROVIDED WITHIN THE STAFF REPORT: A. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN PROVISIONS WHICH ARE OF SPECIAL CONCERN REGARDING THIS PROPOSAL: 6.5 Land Use Designation The Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map (adopted November 15, 2017), designates this site as the following: Mixed Use Suitable for a mixture of uses including limited office, limited commercial and residential. Residential densities within the designation is up to 20 units per acre but density will be determined on a site by site basis. Uses should complement and not take away from downtown Eagle. Development within this land use designation should be required to proceed through the PUD and/or development agreement process. See the planning area text for a complete description of site specific uses. Chapter 6: Land Use 6.5.1 Park Lane Uses B. Flint Drive shall be preserved primarily as a residential street. 6.5.2 Park Lane Design B. Flint Estates Area 1. The Flint Estates area adjacent to State Highway 44 should be designed to provide commercial uses that encourage pedestrian circulation from the residential and Page 8 of 29 K:II'lanning DeptlEagle Applications\SUBS12()181Bciicmcadc Sub pif.doc high school areas, to complement the existing mixed-use area at State Street and Park Lane (Camille Beckman) and planned new residential uses adjacent to the north. Street trees, benches and sidewalks are encouraged within the Park Lane Planning Area. 3. Common parking areas at the side of buildings and joint parking agreements should be encouraged so walking distances between buildings are minimized and provide a pedestrian scale to the area. 4. Th activity centers and building orientation should focus on internal circulation streets rather than the regional transportation network. 5. On -street parking should be encouraged where sufficient right of way is available. 6. Transitional lot sizes and design elements (berms, fences, etc.) should be used to provide buffering to residential areas to the east and north of the mixed-use area. Chapter 8: Transportation 8.4.1 Roadway Strategies: P. Local and collector streets through residential neighborhoods are recommended to provide connectivity while being designed to preserve the character of the surrounding neighborhoods through appropriate design techniques, including street width, traffic calming, and traffic control. The goal of the local street system is to provide for local circulation within Eagle and not for regional traffic. Cul-de-sac streets and private streets should be discouraged. In order to provide this connectivity, new developments should be required to stub access to adjacent undeveloped or underdeveloped parcels consistent with ACHD road spacing standards. All new developments should be reviewed for appropriate opportunities to connect to local roads and collectors in adjacent developments. B.

DISCUSSION (based on preliminary plat, date stamped by the City on August 15, 2018): • Pursuant to Eagle City Code Section 8-6-5-5(A)(3), setbacks for modified lot sizes shall conform to the closest compatible base zone identified in Eagle City Code Section 8-2-4. The applicant is requesting a MU -DA (Mixed Use with a development agreement [development agreement in lieu of a conditional use permit]) zoning designation. The required setbacks Page 12 of 29 K:11'lanning Ihkpt\liagle Applic:ation.ASUBS120181Bellcmcada Sub pi doc within the MU (Mixed Use) zone are as follows: Front 20 -feet Rear 20 -feet Side 7.5 -feet Street Side 20 -feet Maximum Coverage 50% The applicant is proposing single-family detached and/or attached units to be located on lots separating each unit. Since the units will be attached on one (1) side the applicant is requesting a "zero" side setback. The proposed setbacks as identified in the applicant's narrative, date stamped by the City on October 25, 2016, reflects the following setbacks: Front: 20 -feet* Rear: 15 -feet Interior Side: 0-feet/5-feet (detached) Street Side: 15 -feet (living), 20 -feet (garage) * Front setback measured from back of sidewalk to front of garage With regard to the reduction of setbacks, staff has the following comments: The applicant is proposing the front setback be measured from the back of sidewalk. Pursuant to Eagle City Code Section 8-1-2, setbacks are measured from the property lines. The street section shown on the preliminary plat, date stamped by the City on August 15, 2018, shows the detached 5 -foot sidewalk located 1 -foot outside of the right-of-way and the attached sidewalk located within the right-of-way. The front setback should be measured from the property line and provide for a minimum of 20 -feet between the back of sidewalk and front of the garage. The applicant is proposing a side setback of 0 -feet for attached units and 5 -feet for detached units with no additional setback for two-story structures. The applicant provided building elevations, date stamped by the City on August 13, 2018, showing single -story structures. Based on the width of the lots and the building elevations, the residential dwellings should be restricted to single -story only. It is staff's opinion that based on 1) locations of the sidewalk in relationship to the right-of- way, 2) the request for a side setback of 5 -feet with no additional setback for two-story structures, 3) size of the lot, and 4) no reference of a maximum lot coverage, the setbacks and lot coverage should be approved as follows: Front: 26 -feet Rear: 15 -feet Interior Side: 0-feet/5-feet (detached) Street Side: 21 -feet (living), 26 -feet (garage) Maximum Lot Coverage: 60% The residential dwellings shall be single -story (25 -feet maximum height). • The applicant is proposing a private street with no interconnectivity to the adjacent parcels. The transportation chapter of the comprehensive plan identifies a roadway strategy which states, "Local and collector streets through residential neighborhoods are recommended to provide connectivity while being designed to preserve the character of the surrounding neighborhoods through appropriate design techniques, including street width, traffic calming, and traffic control. The goal of the local street system is to provide for local circulation within Eagle and not for regional traffic. Cul-de-sac streets and private streets should be discouraged. Page 13 of 29 K:Wktnning Dcptllagk Applications1SUBS12018113cllcmcad Sub pzf.doc To provide this connectivity, new developments should be required to stub access to adjacent undeveloped or underdeveloped parcels consistent with ACHD road spacing standards. All new developments should be reviewed for appropriate opportunities to connect to local roads and collectors in adjacent developments." Flint Drive functions as a residential collector. The adjacent property located to the east will more than likely be developed in the future. The subdivision should have public streets within the development with a street stub providing connectivity to the adjacent property to the east which will establish a future street network in the future. The applicant should be required to provide a revised preliminary plat with public streets and a street stub providing connectivity to the adjacent property to the east. The revised preliminary plat should be provided prior to submittal of a design review application. • The private street typical section shown on the preliminary plat shows an attached sidewalk located adjacent to one side of the street. Pursuant to Eagle City Code Section 9-4-1-6(F)(3), sidewalks shall be separated from the edge of abutting roadway and/or back of curb by a minimum 8 -foot wide landscape strip. Also, the street section shows an ACHD easement located 2 -feet behind the sidewalk. The sidewalk should be located within the ACHD easement. If the private street is approved, the applicant should provide a revised preliminary plat with a private street typical section showing an 8 -foot wide landscape strip separating the sidewalk from back of curb on both sides of the street. The revised preliminary plat should be provided prior to submittal of a design review application. o Plat note #3 on the preliminary plat states, "Lot 57, Block 1, shall be a private road lot to be owned and maintained by the homeowners association." The plat note does properly address the required plat notes associated with private streets. Pursuant to Eagle City Code Section 9-3-2-5(C)(2) notes shall be included on the face of the plat which shall: a) Act to convey to each lot owner within the subdivision to be served by the private street the perpetual right of ingress and egress over the described private street; b) Provide that such perpetual easement shall run with the land; and c) Provide that the restrictive covenant for maintenance of the private street cannot be modified and the homeowners'/property owners' association or other entity cannot be dissolved without the express consent of the city. The applicant should provide a revised preliminary plat with plat note #3 revised to a) convey to each lot owner within the subdivision to be served by the private streets the perpetual right of ingress and egress over the described private streets, b) provide that such perpetual easement shall run with the land, c) provide that the restrictive covenant for maintenance of the private streets cannot be modified and the homeowners'/property owners' association or other entity cannot be dissolved without the express consent of the city. The revised preliminary plat should be provided to the City prior to submittal of a final plat application. • Plat note #5 of the preliminary plat states (in part), "The following lots are designated as common/landscape area lots and will be owned by the homeowners association and/or assigns. These lots shall have a blanket public utilities, drainage, and irrigation easement over the entirety of the lot." Pursuant to Eagle City Code Section 9-3-8(D)(4)(a), the applicant is required to identify the owner of the open space who is responsible for the maintaining the open space and facilities located thereon. The applicant should be required to provide a revised preliminary plat with plat note #5 revised to state, "The following lots are designated as common/ landscape area lots and will be owned and maintained by the Bellemeade Subdivision homeowners association and/or assigns. These lots shall have a blanket public utilities, drainage, and irrigation easement over the entirety of the lot." The revised preliminary plat should be provided prior to submittal of a final plat application.

These lots also provide blanket public utility, irrigation and drainage easements. Said lots will be owned and maintained by the homeowners association." The number of lots gaining access from the four (4) common lots vary in number from 2-4 residential lots. Pursuant to Eagle City Code Section 9-3-2-1(J), driveways providing access to no more than two (2) dwelling units shall be allowed within any subdivision. The applicant should be required to provide a revised preliminary plat showing that no more than two (2) dwelling units take access from a single driveway prior to submittal of a final plat application. If the City Council approves more than two (2) dwelling units taking access from a single driveway, the applicant should provide a revised preliminary plat with plat note #6 revised to state, "The following lots are designated as common lots, which a) provide perpetual right of ingress/egress, b) the easement runs with the land, and c) shall be owned and maintained by the Bellemeade homeowners association. These lots also provide blanket public utility, irrigation and drainage easements." The revised preliminary plat should be provided prior to submittal of a final plat application. • Plat note #12 of the preliminary plat states, "Minimum building setback lines shall be in accordance with the Eagle City zoning ordinance at the time of issuance of a building permit or as specifically approved and/or required." The setbacks for the development will be a condition of development within the development agreement. The applicant should be required to provide a revised preliminary plat with plat note #12 revised to state, "Minimum building setbacks shall be in accordance with City of Eagle applicable zoning and subdivision regulations or as specifically approved with the development agreement associated with RZ- 04-18 or any subsequent modifications."

STAFF RECOMMENDATION PROVIDED WITHIN THE STAFF REPORT: Based upon the information provided to date, staff recommends approval of the requested modification of the executed development agreement (development agreement in lieu of a PUD) and preliminary plat with the conditions of approval as provided within the staff report. PUBLIC HEARING OF THE COMMISSION: A. A public hearing on the applications was held before the Planning and Zoning Commission on August 20, 2018, at which time testimony was taken and the public hearing was closed. The Commission made their recommendation at that time. B. Oral testimony in opposition to this proposal was presented to the Planning and Zoning Commission by one (1) individual who voiced the following concerns: • The proposed density is too high for the area. • The applicant has not provided a transition of lots sizes to the adjacent property. • The availability of surface water for a pressurized irrigation system. • The existing trees located within the subject property should be maintained within the property. C. Oral testimony in favor of the application was presented to the Planning and Zoning Commission by no one (not including the applicant/representative). D. Oral testimony neither in favor of nor in opposition to the application was presented to the Planning and Zoning Commission by three (3) individuals who indicated the following: • Have a concern regarding the overcrowding of schools in the area. • Park Lane is not designed for additional traffic, therefore, the traffic from the proposed development will have an impact to Park Lane. • Have an appreciation that apartments are not being proposed and requested lower density located adjacent to the eastern boundary. • Has a concern with the proposed density being so high when property prices are as high as they are in the area. • The applicant should be required to maintain the 5,000 -square foot minimum lot size required for the MU (Mixed Use) zoning district. • Park Lane is backed up when school is in session. During the times that Park Lane is backed up the residents within the development will utilize Flint Drive to access SH -44.
