Design Parameters The proposed development had an initial approval on January 14, 1981 for a subdivision of 58 lots. However, the final expiration date was January 14, 1985. Therefore, the developer has resubmitted a subdivision which complies with the current Development Code. The net density for this project is 2 du/ac.

Staff Comments Site Plan: The design of the subdivision and circulation are basically the same as the previously approved tentative tract. The new site plan complies with the current Development Code in areas of setbacks, density, minimum net lot average and lot sizes. However, the proposed development should provide for more front yard setback variations. The Code requires a 42' average and a variable of ~5 feet. Architecture: The proposed elevations are adequate in providing a variety of details and treatments. The following are recommended changes: Provide all corner units side elevation facing the street with upgraded additional wood trim around windows and wood siding or plant-ons, where appropriate. 2. Provide one additional front elevation for each house plans for creating variety and interest.
