INITIAL PROJECT ISSUES
Project No. CT 94-04/PUD 94-03 - Planning Area A-1
PLANNING:
1. Please provide a legend for the floor plans explaining any symbols and abbreviations as
shown on the plans.
2. Per item #26 of the CT/PD checklists please provide a materials board with color samples
that will correspond with the colors and materials noted on the architectural/elevations
exhibit (roofing, exterior walls, pavement, glass, wood, etc.)
3. Please verify that no roof top equipment is proposed or will be required with the project;
otherwise provide roof plans that depict all roof top equipment, etc.
4. The landscape plan will be reviewed in detail by the City's landscape consultant now that
a complete application has been achieved.
5. Include existing/proposed grades on the landscape plans; provide necessary topographic
information on the landscape exhibits.
6. Only provide wall and fence details that correspond and pertain to the wails and fences
involved in this project as noted on the plans. Use the same terminology between the
plans and details when referencing walls/fences. For example, 'noise barrier wall" is
called out on the plans but not given a corresponding detail with the same name. All wall
heights, materials and colors need to be indicated. Noise wall details need to specify the
materials and thickness proposed consistent with the requirements of the noise study in
order to achieve adequate noise attenuation. The landscape plan and site plan must be
consistent with each other including wall/fence information. On the plans, the noise wail
height appears to be called out; however, please call out all wall heights (noise, retaining,
etc.) throughout the length of the walls including endpoints, midpoints and highest
elevation. Noise wall heights must be in compliance with the project's noise study. The
tentative map exhibits and landscape plans must be consistent with each other.
7. Provide street light details. Regarding street light specifications, please note the use of
non-sodium amber lights within the 80 foot setback adjacent to the Lakeshore Gardens
Mobile Home Park as required by the master plan. Also note that street lights or
landscaping lighting shall not illuminate the rear yard areas of Lakeshore Garden
residences.
8. Please provide some form of written proof verifying Lakeshore Gardens' consultation and
review of the proposed landscaping within the 80 foot setback, as required by the master
plan.
9. As part of the landscape plans, please provide an exhibit clearing showing the details
(materials, copy, colors, height and length dimensions) of the proposed signage
(community entry sign, village identity sign) consistent with master plan provisions. Also
indicate sign illumination styles and techniques consistent with the master plan (Exhibit
30, etc).
10. On the project's floor plans, please indicate a minimum of 5* foot sideyard setbacks.
11. Maximum encroachment of fireplaces into sideyard setback areas is 2 feet. Please
dimension this on the plans. Some of the fireplaces appear to scale out to 2 1/2 feet of
encroachment; 2 feet of encroachment is the maximum. Also, please label all fireplaces
on the project's floor plans and give a corresponding symbol for the floor plans' legend.
12. On the sheet 3 of the tentative map, lot numbers are in circles with the floor plan type
underneath; please use the same label on the map exhibits as the floor plan exhibits
(either plan types A, B, C or 1,2,3).
13. For plan type 1 on the floor plans, provide a second floor/loft floor plan.
14. Label what plan type the second floor plans correspond to on the floor plan exhibits.
15. Please provide an overview/summary of the project's proposed architecture and
compliance/consistency with the City's Small Lot Architectural Guidelines.
16. On the project's architectural elevation exhibits, please note the typical building materials
and colors consistent with the materials/colors board.
17. The project's noise study requires a noise wall adjacent to the I-5 freeway near the master
plan's eastern boundary along the 110 foot contour line. This wall is an offsrte
requirement of this planning area and must be shown on the tentative map and
landscape exhibits. All wail information (heights, materials, colors, etc) must be shown
and/or consistent with appropriate wall details as required of all other wails in the project.
18. Both the tentative map and landscape plan exhibits need to show the trail required with
this planing area by the master plan. Please provide typical details/cross sections of the
trail and depict all trail amenities. At the ends of the trail, indicate the trail's continuance
onto another planning area/trail segment consistent with the master plan's trail system.
The tentative map and landscape plans must be consistent with each other. For A-1, the
master plan requires construction and completion of the trail prior to the granting of
occupancy. Please indicate this as a note on the trail plans or on a corresponding trail
detail. In addition, also please indicate the following: (1) that the Homeowners
Association shall assume all trail maintenance and liability responsibilities unless a
Citywide mechanism is approved in the future; and (2) prior to final map approval, an
open space easement shall be dedicated to the property owner/Homeowners Association
for trail purposes.
19. On the cover sheet of the tentative map, under Grading Analysis, please insert the
following wording above the cut, fill and import quantities given: This site was mass
graded under the approval of Master Tentative Map, CT 94-01. Final grading for this
Planning Area involves:
cut
fill -
import -
20. On the cover sheet of the tentative map under the Parking Summary, please place in
parentheses (on-street parking) underneath visitor parking. Parking spaces for guests are
allowed to be located on both sides of the 36 foot wide private street per the PD
ordinance. Please plot these on-street parking spaces on the tentative map exhibit to
clearly show the guest spaces provided; and to verify the number of guest spaces
present.
ENGINEERING:
1. Indicate the height and materials of aJi proposed walls. Indicate top, bottom and worst
condition elevations at both ends and in the middle of all walls.
2. Several lots show the proposed sideyard drainage swales located less than 5' from the
buildings. The City requires that finish grading provide a minimum positive drainage of
2% to swale 5' away from a building. This issue may be resolved by having the Soils
Engineer prepare a letter that indicates their approval of the proposed drainage design.
3. Driveways for all lots must be plotted on the tentative map.
4. Stopping sight distance of 300* is to be plotted, as opposed to the 200' stopping sight
distance presently shown on the tentative map. In order to maintain a 300' stopping sight
distance, it may be necessary to limit the height of walls and landscaping on certain lots.
5. Indicate the street name of the entry street and provide its typical street section.
6. As this project is to "stand alone", this tentative map will have conditions of approval
requiring installation of improvements including drainage, sewer, utilities and street
improvements.
7. Attached is a redlined checkprint of the project which must be returned with the next
resubmrttal to assist staff with its continued review.
