ISSUES AND ANALYSIS
Staff has reviewed the final plat and revised preliminary plat plans for conformance with
the preliminary plat findings of fact. Staff has found that the final plat contains the same
number and arrangement of lots as the preliminary plat, however, a number of conditions
of preliminary plat approval need to be addressed. The list of conditions found in the
recommendation section of this report includes outstanding preliminary plat conditions.
Staff feels comfortable recommending approval of the final plat; however, no building
permits will be issued and no mylars will be released until all of the conditions of approval
have been met.
Some of the outstanding conditions relate to building design and materials, landscaping,
and lighting. The applicant must submit building floor plans (to scale) indicating
dimensions and square foot calculations for each of the four proposed unit types. A
sample and list of proposed building materials must also be submitted. The landscape
plan should be revised to include an irrigation system. screening of parking lots, and
screening of mechanical equipment. Also. the type of foundation plantings proposed for
the north side of buildings should be modified to shade tolerant species. The applicant
has stated that a lighting plan, which is required, is in the process of being prepared by the
NSP Outdoor Lighting division. The preceding issues, as well as other conditions, are
listed in the recommendation section of this report.
ACTION REQUESTED:
A motion to approve, deny or conditionally approve the final plat. In the event that the City
Council approves the final plat with condition as other than those identified herein, Staff
5
should be direded to amend the Findings of Fact and Decision accordingly.
