Hugo Gardens Page 5 The maximum height of parking lot lighting adjacent to or within residential areas shall be 20 feet. The light fixtures submitted appear to comply with height and cutoff fixture standards, however, the lighting plan does not match the revised site plan and must be revised and resubmitted for City review. Signage No signage is proposed at this time. If signage is desired for the development, the applicant must apply for a sign permit with details ensuring compliance with ordinance requirements. Parking The City Code requires two spaces per unit plus one stall per five units. The site plan shows single stall garages for each unit. The applicant has indicated that one parking stall per unit would be provided in the garage and a second in the driveway.

There are some areas on the north where driveways are located very close to the end of private drives with a tall retaining wall. The developer must provide structural fencing or bollards to ensure that that vehicles do not back over the wall. Additionally, 29 guest parking stalls are provided where 17 are required. This meets the ordinance requirements for number of units. However, the guest stalls are located in the west and south portion of the site. Staff encourages the applicant to evaluate the potential for locating some guest stalls closer to the two buildings on the north portion of the site. On street parking will be included on Finale Avenue. This intended primarily for park users but will also be available for use by apartment guests and will provide an option closer to the northern buildings than the current location of the guest parking on site. No parking will be allowed on the private drives and the apartment contracts should include language to this effect. As noted in the Multi -Family Development Design Guidelines, garages should remain open for vehicle parking and the contracts should address that as well. That applicant shall ensure guest parking stalls comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act. The plans note that snow removal shall occur on site. The plans shall be revised to identify snow storage areas. Landscaping Section 90-272 of the Hugo City code requires that all for apartment construction, all areas not covered by building, parking, driveways, or impervious storage areas shall be landscaped and maintained in accordance with Section 90-181. Section 90-181 outlines those landscaping requirements. The development is also required to expend
