AGENDA ITEM VI. A <br />STAFF ORIGINATOR: Jeff Smyser <br />P & Z MEETING DATE: December 13, 2000 <br />TOPIC: Discussion Item: Saddle Club Concept Plan <br />BACKGROUND <br />The Board discussed a concept for developing the Saddle Club at the last meeting. The <br />developer, Heritage Development, presented a sketch of a planned development that <br />included the possibility of some common or public open space. The Board expressed a <br />number of concerns regarding that sketch. The Board did not believe that the plan <br />justified the additional density on the site compared to standard R -1 zoning. <br />The developer has submitted a new concept for discussion. While the new plan <br />corresponds with standard zoning, several elements have been removed that could be <br />considered desirable. The following table offers a summary comparison of the two <br />concept drawings: <br />previous concept plan <br />new concept plan <br />received 11 /21 /00 <br />number of lots <br />64 <br />40 <br />net density on <br />25.05 upland <br />acres <br />2.6 lots per acre <br />1.6 lots per acre <br />lot widths <br />50' <br />80' <br />lot depths <br />130 <br />130 <br />roadways • <br />Connection between Old Birch <br />and Kildeer, offering circulation <br />Access on Old Birch, 1 /a mile <br />long cul de sac, no circulation. <br />50'ri :htofwa . <br />between neighborhoods. <br />50'ri:itofwa . - <br />open space <br />Large wetlands and some <br />forested areas in common or <br />public open space, which <br />matches greenway vision for the <br />area. <br />Potential for trail through site in <br />greenway. <br />Potential for connecting to <br />existin : trail to north. <br />No open space — entire site <br />platted within house lots. <br />No trail potential except in street <br />right of way. <br />No potential for connection to <br />existin • trail to north. <br />
