• Century Farm North Page 5 of 11 • Lots 1 and 13, Block 2 have been found to measure only 95 feet in width. As corner lots, their width should be increased to 100 feet as required within R -1 zoning districts. • In review of the grading and drainage plan, there appears to be substantial topography upon Lot 12, Block 2 which may limit its buildability. As a result, it is recommended that the applicant demonstrate its buildability via the submission of a custom plan. • Considering that Carl Street/Century Trail is expected to be a high volume roadway, it is believed the impact of such roadway upon Lots 3 and 4, Block 2 (at the intersection of Sunset Road and Century Trail) could be lessened by providing interior access to such lots from the northeast via the "L" shaped cul -de -sac. In conjunction with such modification, screening could be provided in the rear yard areas at the Sunset /Century Trail intersection (see attached development plan alternative). • The home and driveway upon Lot 20, Block 2 should be re- oriented toward the cul -de sac. • One final concern relates to Lots 6 and 7, Block 6 (as depicted on the preliminary site plan) where it appears the side lot line between the two lots was inadvertently not shown. In regard to Lot 7, Block 6 specifically, it is recommended that the driveway of such lot be oriented to the west rather than the south (to eliminate driveway maneuvering at what is expected to be a busy intersection and not to isolate the home from neighboring dwellings). Airpark Lots. As shown on the submitted development plans, the subject site borders the Lino Airpark and includes 15 "airpark" lots. To accommodate such lots, the processing of a PDO is necessary. Considering that the Comprehensive Plan identifies the airpark as a long -term use within the City and that non - inhabitable structures over the gas line are preferred, the inclusion of such lots is considered generally acceptable. In regard to such lots however, some concerns do exist as summarized below: • The locations of Lots 4 and 9, Block 4. Of primary concern is the location of an airpark lot (Lot 4. Block 4) between two "traditional" single family lots and the adjacency of Lots 5 -8, Block 4 to the airpark taxiway and hanger building. To address this concern, it is suggested that Lot 4 be converted from an "airpark" to "traditional" single family lot and that Lot 9 be eliminated combined with the lots to the north to create a buffer yard. • The impact of runway safety zone extensions upon area lots. As a condition of PUD approval, the applicant should provide documentation to the City that all applicable runway safety zone requirements have or will be satisfied.
