Mr. Kuennen stated that the Crescent Ridge Second Addition preliminary plat included 104 single family lots and was approved by City Council on April 21, 2008. He indicated that LaFavre/Miller Development has submitted a final plat application to develop the first phase of Crescent Ridge Second Addition. Mr. Kuennen stated that Crescent Ridge Second Addition is proposed to be phased to coincide with the City's transition from the existing 1998 Comprehensive Land Use Plan and Staged MUSA Expansion map to the 2008 Comprehensive Land Use Plan and- Staged MUSA Expansion map. Mr. Kuennen indicated that the final plat of the first phase of Crescent Ridge Second Addition includes Outlot A which: will be .retained by the developer and platted into future phases. There is also Outlot B which encompasses a stormwater detention and infiltration basin that will be deeded to the City. Mr. Kuennen indicated that the final plat. must be revised to accommodate the buffer yard on lots abutting Holyoke Avenue and 194 Street. He reiterated what Mr. Wiegert indicated earlier regarding the revisions that have been made since the preliminary plat was presented to the Planning Commission, including a reduction of one lot due to revisions to the proposed site grading. He also indicated the trail and sidewalk construction associated with this final plat. Mr. Kuennen stated that staff recommends approval of the Crescent Ridge Second Addition final plat, subject to the 15 stipulations listed u1 the May 30, 2008 planning report. Chair Drotning asked for comments from the Planning Commission. Commissioner Lillehei asked if the preliminary plat needs to be reviewed again by the Planning Commission due to the 104 lots .being reduced to 103 lots. Mr. Kuennen stated that the original number of lots in a preliminary plat can be reduced at the final plat stage without the Planning. Commission having to look at the plat again as long as roadway and lot design is consistent with the approved preliminary plat. Commissioner Lillehei asked Mr. Kuennen to help him better understand the difference between sidewalks and .trails. Mr. Kuennen explained which roads would be constructed with sidewalks and which ones .would be constructed with trails. Mr. Kuennen also went on to explain how trail and sidewalk locations are determined, as well as the width. and materials of each. Planning Commission Meeting June 5, 2008 Page 4 Commissioner Lillehei asked why some buffer yard lots had 130 foot widths while other lots had only 100 foot widths. Mr. Morey explained the history of the buffer yard requirements, emphasizing the Zoning Ordinance amendment approved in 2006 that increased buffer yard setbacks and lot widths/depths to create more "useable yard space." Commissioner Lillehei asked to have the South Creek Management Plan explained. Assistant City Engineer explained that the City adopted certain requirements for treatment and infiltration systems due to the South Creek Trout Stream. He indicated that the volume of runoff has become a pollutant itself, so the South Creek Management plan will help reduce the runoff volume. 08.59 Motion was made and seconded to recommend to City Council approval of the Crescent Ridge .Second Addition final plat of 37 lots, located north of 195 Street, east of Holyoke Avenue and south of 190 Street, subject to the 15 stipulations listed in the May 30, .2008 planning report.
