PREPARED BY: Kim Lindquist, Community Development Director AGE -a 6. ATTACHMENTS: Draft Subdivision Ordinance Amendment, Draft Zoning Ordinance APPROVED BY Amendment, Excerpt July 27, 2004 PC minutes, Street PrdfileS RECOMMENDED ACTION: 1. Motion to adopt ordinance amending the subdivision ordinance Section 5. 2. Motion to adopt ordinance amending the zoning ordinance Section 4.18, relating to public streets, right-of-way width, and private streets. ACTION: ISSUE Staff has noted an increase in developers requesting modifications to the ordinance standards relating to public street widths, right-of-way dedication, and private streets. The ordinance amendments clarify what the city's standards will be under certain conditions. This will assist staff during the planning review process, and will aid developers by clarifying the city's expectations. SUMMARY The greatest amount of change occurs in the Subdivision ordinance. This is the location where platting standards are set forth. Staff has separated the collector road category into major and minor and set standards for both. The table for street design standards has been modified to show paved street widths and right -of -way needs for roads with and without trails or sidewalks. In certain cases, such as arterial streets or major collector streets, the city would not allow those functional classification streets without a sidewalk or trail. Language has also been added to state the expectation by the city for developers to provide collector streets within generalized half -mile spacing. Also, the required widths for right -of -way dedication have been generally increased to provide additional width for the establishment of boulevard trees along collector streets. The zoning ordinance has a section dealing with private roads for attached single family units. This section has been expanded to explain that turn - arounds are needed. City practice has been to deferential between private streets and private drives.

CASE 0448 -TA Street Width and Design Standards -Text Amendment. Kim Lindquist, Community Development Director noted this application is prompted due to developers requesting modifications to the ordinance standards relating to public street widths, right -of -way dedication, and private streets. The ordinance amendments clarify what the city's standards will be under certain conditions. This will assist staff during the planning review process, and will aid developers by clarifying the city's expectations. The greatest amount of change occurred in the Subdivision ordinance, the location where platting standards are set forth. She reviewed the changes made in the draft ordinance. Language had also been added to state the expectation by the city for developers to provide collector streets within generalized half -mile spacing. Also, the required widths for right -of -way dedication had generally been increased to provide additional width for the establishment of boulevard trees along collector streets. The zoning ordinance included a section dealing with private roads for attached single family units. This section had been expanded to explain that turn- arounds are needed. City practice had been to differentiate between private streets and private drives. Staff expects to continue that differentiation however, does not want to formalize the process through the zoning ordinance The changes will assist staff in accurately conveying the city's desires regarding roadway widths. This information will also be beneficial to developers as they will know upfront the city's expectations. Finally, the draft language is consistent with past practice and takes into consideration changes that have been occurring within public right -of -way such as planting of boulevard trees and installation of trails and sidewalks. Chair Messner opened the public hearing. No one responded, therefore, Chair Messner motioned to close the public hearing which was seconded by Commissioner Schultz.
