Subject

Creekrise Subdivision-Variance Request Single Entrance

Initiator

Department of Engineering

Recommendation

Approval is requested for a variance request for platting and development of \n \n future additions to Creekrise Subdivision to Section 7.8.1.F of the Unified \n \n Development Ordinance (UDO) requiring a second entrance for subdivisions with \n \n more than 99 lots.

Approval

Pending

Background

Section 7.8.1.F requires that a single entrance to a subdivision shall serve no

more than 99 lots. The code does allow for the Engineering Director to waive

this requirement following sound engineering practices. The existing

subdivision currently contains 58 lots with a request to add and additional 85

lots. The total number of lots would then be 143.

Analysis

The developer did meet with an adjoining property owner to try and get an

emergency access that would be closed except in case of emergencies. The owner

of the property denied the request. Also, the estimated cost would make it

economically unfeasible due to the required grading given the steep terrain.

Financial Considerations

The City would assume normal maintenance of any formally accepted roads.

Projected Annual Fiscal Impact Statement

The City is responsible for maintenance on all public roads.

Legal Considerations

Recommendations/ Actions

Approval is requested for a variance request for platting and development of

future additions to Creekrise Subdivision to Section 7.8.1.F of the Unified

Development Ordinance (UDO) requiring a second entrance for subdivisions with

more than 99 lots.
