Daniel Licht, AICP DATE: 14 September 2017 RE: Lakeville – SBF; North Clubhouse PUD Development Stage Plan TPC FILE: 135.01 BACKGROUND SBF Development Corporation has submitted plans for development of a second community clubhouse building for the Spirit of Brandtjen Farm on Lot 6, Block 1, SBF 18th Addition, which is located at the southeast corner of Eagleview Drive and 162nd Street. The subject site is zoned PUD, Planned Unit Development District as approved by the City Council on 20 June 2005. A PUD Development Stage Plan and preliminary plat for SBF 18th Addition was approved by the City Council on 15 May 2017 that included a condition that development of the north clubhouse use requires approval of a PUD Development Stage Plan. A public hearing to consider the application has been noticed for the Planning Commission meeting on 21 September 2017. Exhibits: A. Site Location Map B. SBF Land Use Plan C. Illustrative Site Plan D. Clubhouse Site Plan E. Grading Plan F. Building Elevation and Floor Plans (3 pages) 2 ANALYSIS Land Use. The SBF Land Use Plan (Page 3.4 of the SBF PUD Booklet) illustrates development of various forms of multiple family residential dwellings in the area of SBF 18th Addition. The PUD Development Stage Plan and Preliminary Plat for SBF 18th Addition included the subject site for future development of an Homeowners Association clubhouse facility. The addition of a clubhouse facility, which includes indoor facilities, an outdoor pool, outdoor play equipment, and passive open space, is appropriate to create a gateway into the northern portions of SBF. Development of the proposed north clubhouse is subject to the performance standards outlined by 11-53-7.D of the Zoning Ordinance for clubhouse facilities within residential areas. Building Design. The proposed building is a single story structure with a pitched roof having dormers with an “L” shaped footprint. The center section of the building has a taller roofline and an element that appears as a third level. Siding material is not specified but should be LP Smartside or fiber cement board to be consistent with exterior materials used for surrounding single family dwellings. The pattern of the siding is vertical seam on the center section of the building and horizontal lap on the building wings. Roof material is to be standing seam metal. The proposed architectural design and building materials provide an agricultural character for the proposed building consistent with the desired architecture for SBF and similar to the existing HOA facilities developed to the south outlined in the SBF PUD Booklet. Landscaping. The developer has submitted an illustrative site plan that provides for a substantial number of plantings within the subject site and within the boulevards along both sides of Eagleview Drive and 162nd Street, including the roundabout island at the center of the intersection. The illustrative site plan shows coniferous trees planted along the east and south lot lines of the subject site abutting single family residential lots for screening purposes. Additional coniferous trees should be added along the south lot line for a more complete screen. A detailed landscape plan based on the site plan and including a schedule regarding the type and size of plantings and planting details that complies with the requirements of Section 11-21-9.C of the Zoning Ordinance must be provided. An irrigation plan must also be provided for the subject site, boulevards, and roundabout island. The landscape plan is subject to review and approval of City staff. Lot Requirements. There is no minimum lot area or lot width requirements established by the SBF PUD District applicable to the subject site. The north and west lot lines are the “front” of the subject site abutting public rights-of-way and the Eagleview Drive and 162nd Street intersection form the visual focal point for the clubhouse building. The proposed clubhouse building is setback 25 feet from its closest point to the right-of-way line at the roundabout intersection of Eagleview Drive and 162nd Street. The proposed forward orientation of the building is acceptable from a site design standpoint to make the building a prominent visual feature entering the neighborhood and to maximize the area behind the building for outdoor uses. The Zoning Ordinance requires community center buildings to provide a side yard setback double that required by the underlying zoning but not more than 30 feet. The clubhouse is located in the northwest corner of the subject site approximately 200 feet from the nearest 3 residential lot, and the play lot to the southeast of the clubhouse is setback 60 feet from the closest residential lot. The location of the clubhouse building and active areas of the site plan comply with the side and rear setback requirements applicable to the subject site. Pedestrian Access. There are sidewalks on Eagleview Drive and 162nd Street abutting the north and west lot lines of the subject site. There is also a privately maintained/publicly accessible trail connection to Duskwood Trail to the southeast of the subject site. A connection from the proposed trail should also be extended to the southwest corner of the subject site to intersect the sidewalk on Eagleview Drive, which would provide access to the clubhouse as well as to the interior of the neighborhood. The sidewalks and trail will provide access to the clubhouse from all areas of SBF as part of the extensive pedestrian system provided within the neighborhood. Off-Street Parking. Section 11-19-13 of the Zoning Ordinance requires community center buildings to provide 10 parking stalls plus one parking stall for each 300 square feet of principal building area greater than 2,000 square feet. Based on the 3,100 square foot area of the proposed clubhouse building, 14 off-street parking stalls are required. The site plan provides an off-street parking area accessed from 162nd Street to the east of the clubhouse building. The parking area has 24 parking stalls, one of which is designated as ADA van accessible. The number of off-street parking stalls exceeds the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance (and will allow space for drop-off/pick-up). The dimensions and construction of the off-street parking area also complies with the requirements of Section 11-19-7.I.1 of the Zoning Ordinance. Fence. The site plan includes an outdoor pool area. The pool area is partially bounded to the north and west by the clubhouse building. The sections of the pool area not bounded by the clubhouse building must be enclosed by a fence. The fence enclosing the pool area must comply with the requirements of Section 11-21-5.G of the Zoning Ordinance. The site plan must be revised to indicate the location of the required fence and details regarding its construction, which are to be subject to review and approval of City staff. Exterior Lighting. The submitted plans do not identify exterior lighting fixtures. The developer must provide an exterior lighting plan indicating the location, type, and height of all exterior light fixtures and a photometric plan illustrating the intensity of the proposed exterior lighting in compliance with Section 11-16-17 of the Zoning Ordinance. Trash. No trash container storage area is shown on the site plan. If outdoor storage of trash containers is proposed, details for a structure to enclosure the containers that complies with the requirements of Section 11-18-11 of the Zoning Ordinance must be submitted and are subject to review and approval of City staff. Grading Plan. The developer has submitted a grading plan for development of the subject site. All grading, drainage, and utility issues are subject to review and approval of the City Engineer. 4 Utility Plan. The site plan includes details for extension of sanitary sewer and water utility connections for the proposed facility. All utility issues are subject to review and approval of the City Engineer. CONCLUSION Our office recommends approval of the PUD Development Stage Plan for the SBF north clubhouse subject to the following conditions: 1. Siding material for the principal building shall be LP Smartside or fiber cement board product. 2. A detailed landscape plan based on the site plan and including a schedule regarding the type and size of plantings and planting details that complies with the requirements of Section 11-21-9.C of the Zoning Ordinance shall be submitted and is subject to review and approval of City staff. 3. The site plan shall be revised to provide a connection from the proposed interior trail to the southwest corner of the subject site to intersect the sidewalk on Eagleview Drive. 4. The site plan shall be revised to provide for a fence enclosing the pool area in compliance with Section 11-21-5.G of the Zoning Ordinance, subject to review and approval of City staff. 5. The developer shall provide an exterior lighting plan indicating the location, type, and height of all exterior light fixtures and a photometric plan illustrating the intensity of the proposed exterior lighting in compliance with Section 11-16-17 of the Zoning Ordinance. 6. Any outdoor storage of trash containers shall comply with the requirements of Section 11-18-11 of the Zoning Ordinance, subject to review and approval of City staff. 7. All grading, drainage and erosion control issues are subject to review and approval of the City Engineer. 8. All utility issues are subject to review and approval of the City Engineer. c.
