42 DRAFT 50 acre. The area in open space is 17.42 acres, that totals 47.9 percent in open space. 51 There's a breakout of the open space in primary and secondary, you may recall, last go 52 round with the major subdivision we had different tiers of open space, primary open space 53 is intended to preserve naturally sensitive areas, steep slopes, stream buffers, areas of 54 historical or cultural significance and then secondary open space which can be used for 55 more active like uses. The buffers and setbacks 40 feet from the rights-of-way including 56 the new road that they would build 20 feet from the sides and the rear and a 30-foot type 57 B buffer. There's also a perimeter building setback of a hundred feet. Access would be 58 via a 50-foot public right-of-way and it's a DOT ultimately accepted road. They'd be 59 served with individuals wells and septic systems, and they're making a payment in lieu for 60 their park and rec fee. That's pretty standard with these types of subdivisions. This is the 61 overall layout, you can see they're basically drawing a singular road, terminating in a cul- 62 du-sac with single family lots flanking it and then open space around the perimeter and to 63 the rear, that round object at the end of the cul-du-sac is a storm water control measure, 64 an SCM that would account for their pre-post runoff in terms of water volume runoff and 65 nutrient removal. This is where we are in the planning board process. As I said, it would 66 move on to the board of county commissioners. Staff analysis is the application was 67 deemed complete. We determined the property is sufficient size, that it meets all the 68 requirements of the subdivision section, Article 7 of LIDO, and staff supports the approval 69 of the flexible development option contained in Attachment 1. Plan director recommends 70 that you receive the application, recommend approval for the preliminary plat as 71 submitted. Any questions for me? 72 Adam Beeman: One person from the public wants to speak. 73 Jamie Cox: Hi again, thanks for allowing me to speak. I'm Jamie Cox, owner of the adjoining property 74 at the end of the cul-du-sac. Just wanted to mark a couple of things for the record. 75 Appreciate the additional analysis that was done on the soils for the property. I think 76 that's very helpful. Didn't exactly answer the concern we had about the impact to the well 77 on adjoining property so just wanted again to note that for the record. The other is that 78 the preliminary plat shows the electric service that actually goes over or the overhead 79 wires and then stops. It does not show the undergrounds wires that actually takes the 80 service to our property. We had asked the developer and the planning staff to consider 81 depicting the underground utility service and providing an access and utility easement 82 over that utility service to our property. We were told that's not the planning department's 83 job, which is fine, but I bring that to you since we'd like to continue to use electricity at our 84 house. But that's our only concern other than what we've already stated, so appreciate 85 you guys. 86 Adam Beeman: Thank you. 87 Charity Kirk: Can you clarify your concern? You're concerned about the well water capacity on the 88 adjacent property. As well as you receiving electricity because there's no electrical 89 easement noted. 90 Jamie Cox: Correct. 91 Charity Kirk: Okay. 92 Jamie Cox: Well said. 93 Adam Beeman: Let's start down this way, Dolores, do you have any questions? Whitney?
