Insurance Rate Map. Barr Engineering has completed a study
to determine the 100-year floodplain elevation and is seeking a
Letter of Map Revision (LOMR) from FEMA. Until that is
completed, these three buildings cannot be platted and
developed, which is why they are only shown conceptually on
the. preliminary plat.
Mr. Morey also explained that because the easterly portion of
the plat lies within the Shoreland Overlay District, a conditional
use permit is required for a townhouse development. Staff has
reviewed the conditional use permit request with respect to
density, open space, impervious surface area and setbacks and
recommends approval. He further explained that there are no
wetland impacts proposed with this development. Performance
standards for the RM-1 District have been met.. The Planning
Commission held a public hearing and recommended approval
subject to 21 stipulations. Staff recommends .approval of the
preliminary plat and conditional use permit.
Mayor Johnson asked about the FEMA. requirements for storm
shelters.
Mr. Morey explained that a "safe room" would be built to FEMA
standards in each slab-on-grade townhouse unit.
Council. Member Mulvihill asked if the storm shelter area is
accessible from inside the home and the garage. Mr. Plante
explained that it is located under the interior stairway. in the
central portion of the home, which is within. three feet of the
garage door. The size is approximately four feet by eight feet.
