generally depict the housing styles for the neighborhood. Additionally,Architectural Guidelines will <br /> provide a framework for builders to follow while allowing flexibility and variety. <br /> Setbacks for the 50-, 65-and 70-foot lots are proposed to be consistent between product types. This <br /> includes setbacks of 25-foot front, 7 1/2-foot sides and 30-foot rear. The larger 85-foot lots will have <br /> similar front and rear setbacks with 10-foot side setbacks. The Villas are proposed to have front <br /> setbacks of 25 feet for front loaded garages and 20 feet for side loaded garages. Side setbacks are <br /> shown at 7 1/z feet on either side. <br /> STREETS. SIDEWALKS & LANDSCAPING <br /> There are number of access points to the site,which also creates connections to the surrounding <br /> community. The curved tree-lined streets will help to calm traffic in this pedestrian friendly <br /> neighborhood. The street design allows for many of the homes to not directly back another home <br /> creating many premium lots with wetland,open space or park views. <br /> Sidewalks are evident throughout and located on one side of the street creating a truly walkable <br /> neighborhood. Trails provide the much needed connections from the surrounding area leading <br /> around the ponds and wetlands to the public park. <br /> While the site is generally open, there are a few stands of trees intended to be preserved. Most <br /> notably, the center entrance along 130`'Street. This centrally located entrance creates a front door <br /> effect to the neighborhood with a large monument and public trail leading directly to the park. Near <br /> the Villas, the trees create a private green which becomes the focal point of this sub-neighborhood. <br /> Other existing treed areas will be preserved to the extent possible. <br /> Extensive landscaping is planned along 130`'Street and Highway 61 creating rear yard buffers. The <br /> large monument at the main entrance will create identity for the neighborhood as will other features <br /> throughout,including the public park, enhanced trail system and pocket green spaces. <br /> STREETLIGHTS <br /> The streetlight style will be the Vernon Fixture offered by Xcel Energy(see below). Proposed <br /> locations are shown on the Preliminary Plat. <br /> EASEMENTS <br /> The site is intersected by 2 easements: gas line and overhead powerline. Both Koch and Xcel are in <br /> the process of reviewing plans to respond to site planning and permitting near the easement areas. <br /> Adelaide Landing Preliminary Plat/PUD—Narrative EXCELSIOR <br /> 3 •77MEXM&WcM.P <br />
