design principals with flexibility on front yard setback standards. No such flexibility is being processed as part of this subdivision design. Single family lots and uses are a permitted use of these Districts. The following are surrounding land uses. The proposed subdivision is anticipated to be compatible with existing and planned uses in the area. Access. Access to the subdivision is provided via Marilyn Drive from the south and Arlo Lane from the west. Traffic from this neighborhood must use these routes to reach collector or arterial streets due to access limitations onto Main Street to the north. Local streets within the preliminary plat have been designed with a 60 foot right-of-way, consistent with the Subdivision Ordinance. There are three cul-de-sacs within the project, necessitated by existing development and wetlands. The cul-de-sacs have a 60 foot radius as required. Blocks and Lots. The subdivision includes 70 single family lots with an average size of 16,150 square feet within five blocks. The subdivision Ordinance limits block length to not more than 1,500 feet. The lengths of Blocks 1 and 2 exceed 1,500 feet, due to existing development, wetland and drainage areas, and limitations on access to Main Street. The R-1 District minimum lot size is 10,800 square feet of buildable land. The lots have been modified to provide for a minimum of 10,800 of upland per lot. Lots within the R-1 District must also have a minimum width of 80 feet (100 feet for corner lots) and minimum depth of 135 feet (145 feet for double frontage lots). All of the lots meet or exceed these provisions. Existing Structures. There are four existing single family dwellings within the project area. The submitted plans do not identify those that are to remain or those that may be removed. The proposed subdivision design has been laid out such that each dwelling would be located on an individual lot within required setbacks. There is a detached accessory building in the area of Lots 2 and 3, Block 1 that must be removed as it overlays lot lines and encroaches into the right- of-way. Natural Features. The subject site includes several large stands of trees throughout the property. A tree preservation plan has been submitted that indicates trees to be protected and those to be removed as part of the development. Trees to be preserved are a large stand in the Highland Meadows 3rd Page 2 of 4 Comprehensive Plan (Existing) Comprehensive Plan (Draft) Zoning Site Single Family Residential Low Density/Residential PDO / R-1 and R-1 North Single Family Residential Low Density/Residential R-1 East Single Family Residential Low Density/Residential R-1 South Single Family Residential Low Density/Residential R-1 West Single Family Residential Low Density/Residential R Access.
