Setbacks. In review of the proposed development, the following principal setbacks apply: Front Yard Side Yard Rear Yard R-1 District 40 feet 10 feet 30 feet R-4 District 40 feet 20 feet 30 feet NOTES: 40 foot front yard setback applicable to collector streets * R-4 setbacks apply to site perimeter All proposed lots illustrate an ability to conform to the aforementioned setback requirements. Section 6, Subd. 8.E of the Zoning Ordinance stipulates that within PDO Districts, no structure may be closer than 36 feet to another building. The proposed building placements upon Lot 1, Block 1 conform to this separation requirement. Off -Street Parking. According to Section 8, Subd. 1.(2)(B), an off-street parking requirement of two and one-half spaces per unit is required in the R-4 District. As calculated below, a total of 120 spaces are required of the proposed multiple family component of the project. Parking Units Ratio Requirement 48 2.5 per dwelling unit 120 The subject proposal illustrates 128 spaces of which 48 are considered tandem. It should be noted that tandem stalls typically are not considered in the off-street parking supply. Considering, however, that 1) the subject development caters toward the elderly, 2) the tandem stalls meet minimum dimensional requirements, and 3) the City has control over the use of the subject property via the PDO, the tandem stall arrangement is considered acceptable. To provide an assurance that the parking supply will meet demand, the following conditions should be upheld: 1. The dwelling units should be occupied only by elderly residents (55 years and over). 2. Garage stalls should be provided without fee. 3. There should be no dwelling unit conversions for family use. 4. Parking spaces will not be used for storage of recreational vehicles, boats or trailers. 8
