The applicant is proposing to rezone 45.88-acres from RUT to R-4 and construct 115-single-family residential lots. The site is located on the northwest corner of McMillan Road and Locust Grove Road. Acreage: Current Zoning: Proposed Zoning: Buildable Lots: Common Lots: 45.88-acres RUT R-4 115-lots 26-lots Vicinity Map --r A. 2 Findings of Fact 1. Trip Generation: This development is estimated to generate 985 additional vehicle trips per day (0 existing) based on the submitted traffic impact study. 2. Impact Fees: There will be an impact fee that is assessed and due prior to issuance of a building permit. The assessed impact fee will be based on the impact fee ordinance that is in effect at that time. 3. Traffic Impact Study: A traffic impact study was required with this application. The proposed Monterey Subdivision is 115-lot single family residential development located near the northwest corner of the McMillan Road/Locust Grove Road intersection. 1. At full build out the site development will produce a total driveway volume of 985 vehicles per day with a PM peak hour loading of 185 vehicles per hour. 2. The proposed site access plan includes one all-movement access to Locust Grove Road and an all-movement driveway to McMillan Road. 3. The Locust Grove/McMillan intersection now operates with moderate traffic congestion. A traffic signal will be needed to accommodate projected traffic volumes through the year 2010. 4. The proposed site access plan will conform to acceptable standards (LOS "8"). The average queub for vehicles exiting the site will be less than one vehicle. 5. Neither access generates sufficient turning traffic to warrant a left-turn lane on the adjacent arterial. 6. The projected traffic volumes in the current COMPASS model exceed the assumptions in the ACHD CIP. Staff Comments 1. McMillan Road is not included in the District's Five Year Work Program, but is included in the District's Capital Improvements Plan. According to the current CIP. McMillan Road is anticipated to be reconstructed in the year 2015 to include 3-travellanes with vertical curb, gutter sidewalk and bike lanes within a total of 70-feet of right-of-way. . 2. Locust Grove Road is not included in the District's Five Year Work Program or Capital Improvements Plan. 3. The internal local streets are anticipated to carry under 1,000 vehicle trips per day 4. Site Information: The site is currently vacant and utilized for agricultural purposes. 5. Description of Adjacent Surrounding Area: a. North: 5.610-acres zoned RUT and 14.7-acres zoned RUT (Church) b. South: Three 5-acre parcels, 3.380-acres, 2.810-acres zoned RUT c. East: 8.020-acres, 3.380-acres, 2.810-acres zoned RUT d.

Impacted Roadways Locust Grove Road: Frontage: Functional Street Classification: Traffic count: Level of Service: Speed limit: An acceptable Level of Service COMPASS Planning Thresholds McMillan Road: Frontage: Functional Street Classification: Traffic count: Level of Service: Speed limit: An acceptable Level of Service COMPASS Planning Thresholds 7. 1.334-feet Minor Arterial South of McMillan Road was 4,719 on 6-28-01, Better than C 50 MPH for this segment of roadway is Level of Service D based on 820-feet Minor Arterial West of Locust Grove Road was 3,598 on 6-20-01 Better than C 50 MPH for this segment of roadway is Level of Service D based on Roadway Improvements Adjacent To and Near the Site Locust Grove Road is currently improved with 2-traffic lanes (24-feet of pavement) with no curb gutter or sidewalk abutting the site. There is sidewalk located to the north of this site that was constructed as a part of Vienna Woods Subdivision. McMillan Road is currently improved with 2-traffic lanes (24-feet of pavement) with no curb gutter or sidewalk abutting the site. 8. Existing Right-of-Way The right-of-way on Locust Grove Road varies from 55-feet to 108-feet of right-of-way (30-feet from centerline). The right-of-way on McMillan Road varies from 55-feet to 63-feet of right-of-way (30-feet from centerline). 9. Existing Access to the Site The site has a 40-foot wide driveway that intersects Locust Grove Road approximately 285-feet north of the south property line. 10. Site History The District has not previously reviewed a development application on this site. 11. Capital Improvements Plan/Five Year Work Program McMillan Road is not included in the District's Five Year Work Program, but is included in the District's Capital Improvements Plan. According to the current CIP, McMillan Road is anticipated to be reconstructed in the year 2015 to include 3-travellanes with vertical curb, gutter sidewalk and bike lanes within a total of 70-feet of right-of-way. Locust Grove Road is not included in the District's Five Year Work Program or Capital Improvements Plan. Findings for Consideration Right-of-Way and Sidewalk McMillan Road District policy requires 96-feet of right-of-way on arteriai roadways (Figure 72-F1 B). This right-of-way allows for the construction of a 5-lane roadway with curb, gutter, 5-foot concrete detached sidewalks and bike lanes. District policy requires 7 -foot wide attached (or 5-foot detached) concrete sidewalk on all collector roadways and arterial roadways (7204.7.2). Typically, the District requires developments abutting arterial roadways to dedicate 48-feet of right-of-way from the centerline of the roadway and construct a 5-foot detached concrete sidewalk located a minimum of 41-feet from centerline. The North Meridian Traffic Study examined the need for each of the arterial roadways located within the North Meridian Area. As a result of that analysis, the District determined that McMillan Road would only need to be constructed as a 3-lane roadway with vertical curb, gutter, sidewalk and bike lanes within 70- feet of right-of-way. In order to be consistent with the findings of the North Meridian Study and the analysis, the applicant should provide right-of-way and improvements consistent with a 3- lane arterial. This development is also unique in the fact that there is a significantly sized canal located on the north side of McMillan Road abutting the parcel. In the past, the District has acquired right-of-way and improvements on McMillan Road a little differently because of the canals location. Due to the fact that the canal is located on the north side of McMillan Road, the District will not acquire any additional right-of-way on McMillan Road and will acquire the right-of-way that is necessary for future improvements from the properties that are located on the south side of McMillan Road. Although the District will not be acquiring the right-of-way for McMillan Road from this parcel, the applicant will be responsible for the construction of a 5-foot concrete sidewalk, as required by District policy. The applicant should construct the sidewalk to be located on the north side of the canal (between the canal and Lots 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 of Block 2 and Lots 3, 4 and 5 of Block 1). By constructing the sidewalk on the north side of the canal, pedestrians will have a detached walkway on McMillan Road I (once a continuous sidewalk has been constructed) and the roadway improvements can be constructed within the existing right-of-way and the right-of-way that is acquired from the properties to the south. The applicant should provide the District with an easement for the sidewalk due to the fact that the sidewalk will extend outside of the public right-of-way. Locust Grove Road District policy requires 96-feet of right-of-way on arterial roadways (Figure 72-F1 B). This right-of-way allows for the construction of a 5-lane roadway with curb, gutter, 5-foot concrete detached sidewalks and bike lanes. District policy requires 7-foot wide attached (or 5-foot detached) concrete sidewalk on all collector roadways and arterial roadways (7204.7.2). Typically, the District requires developments abutting arterial roadways to dedicate 48-feet of right-of-way from the centerline of the roadway and construct a 5-foot detached concrete sidewalk located a minimum of 41-feet from centerline. As a result of the North Meridian Traffic Study, the District examined the need for each of the arterial roadways located within the North Meridian Area. As a result of that analysis, the District determined that Locust Grove Road would only need to be constructed as a 3-lane roadway with vertical curb, gutter, sidewalk and bike lanes within 70-feet of right-of-way. In order to be consistent with the findings of the North Meridian Study and the analysis, the applicant should provide right-of- way and improvements consistent with a 3-lane arterial. Locust Grove Road is not listed as a proposed project in the District's currently adopted Five-Year Work Program or in the currently adopted 20-year Capital Improvements Plan. As such, the applicant cannot receive reimbursement for dedicated right-of-way from available collected impact fees. The applicant shall do one of the following: a. Dedicate by donation an additional 1 O-feet of right-of-way along Locust Grove Road, and construct a minimum 5-foot wide concrete sidewalk along Locust Grove Road, located a minimum of 28 feet from the centerline of the right-of-way. 4 b. Do not dedicate additional right-of-way, but construct a minimum 5-foot wide concrete sidewalk along Locust Grove Road, located a minimum of 28 feet from the centerline of the right-of-way, in an easement provided to the District. c. Do not dedicate additional right-of-way, but construct a minimum 5.-foot wide concrete sidewalk along Locust Grove Road, located at the back edge of the existing right-of-way. Accomplish all necessary adjustments to properly accommodate existing drainage and utilities. 2. Roadway Offsets Main Entrances District policy 7204.11.6, requires local roadways to align or offset a minimum of 300-feet from an arterial roadway (measured centerline to centerline). The applicant is proposing to construct North Timberline Avenue to intersect East McMillan Road approximately 320-feet east of the west property line (or 825-feet west of Locust Grove Road). This roadway location meets District policy and should be approved with this application. The applicant is proposing to construct East Cedar Hills Street to intersect Locust Grove Road approximately 400-feet south of the north property line (or approximately 470-feet south of the main entrance to Vienna Woods Subdivision). This roadway location meets District policy and should be approved with this application. Local Streets District policy 7204.11.6, requires local roadways to align or offset a minimum of 125-feet from another local roadway (measured centerline to centerline). All of the internal roadways meet or exceed the minimum offsets that are required by District policy. 3. Street Sections District policy 72-F1A, allows local residential public roads with a 33-foot street section with parking on both sides of the roadway, if the amount of vehicle trips per day on the street does not exceed 1,000 and the appropriate fire department reviews and approves the street section. The proposed density of development that will utilize the internal local residential streets is anticipated to generate less than 1,000 vehicle trips per day. District policy 7204.4.2 states, "deveiopments with any buildable lot that is less that 1-acre in size will typically provide streets having a minimum pavement width of 32-feet with curb, gutter and sidewalks. The total street width shall be 36-feet from back-of-curb to back-of-curb. Variations of this width may be allowed, depending on traffic volumes forecast to be generated by the development. Concrete sidewalks shall be a minimum of 5-feet in width unless they are separated from the curb 5-feet or more in which case the sidewalk shall be a minimum of 4-feet in width. The applicant is proposing to construct North Timberline Avenue (from McMillan Road to East Bear Springs Drive), East Bear Springs Drive (from North Timberline Avenue to North Mountain Crest Avenue), North Mountain Crest Avenue, East Cedar Hills Street, East Back Country Street (from North Mountain Crest Avenue to North Show Basin Avenue) and North Snow Basin Road as 36-foot street sections with rolled curb, gutter and 5-foot attached concrete sidewalks within 50-feet of right-of-way. This street section meets District policy and should be approved with this application. The applicant is proposing to construct the remaining streets within the subdivision as 34-foot street sections with rolled curb, gutter and 5-foot attached concrete sidewalks within 50-feet 5 right-of-way. This street section meets District policy and should be approved with this application. 4. Stub Streets District policy 7203.5.1 states that the street design in a proposed development shall cause no undue hardship to adjoining property. An adequate and convenient access ,to adjoining property for use in future development may be required. If a street ends at the development boundary, it shall meet the requirements of sub section 7205, "non-continuous streets." District policy 7205.5 states that stub streets will be required to provide intra-neighborhood circulation or to provide access to adjoining properties. Stub streets will conform with the requirements described in Section 7204.5, 7204.6 and 7204.7, except a temporary cul-de-sac will not be required if the stub street has a length no greater than 150-feet. A sign shall be installed at the terminus of the stub street stating that, "THIS ROAD WILL BE EXTENDED IN THE FUTURE". In addition, a stub street must meet the following conditions: 1. A stub street shall be designed to slope towards the street intersection and drain surface water toward that intersection, unless a satisfactory storm drain system is installed. 2. The District may require appropriate covenants guaranteeing that the stub street will remain free of obstructions. The applicant is proposing to construct North Snow Basin Avenue as a stub street to the north property line approximately 225-feet east of the west property line. This parcel will serve the I 5.6-acre site to the north. Staff is supportive of the applicant's proposal to construct this stub street. Due to the fact that this stub street is proposed to be less than 150-feet in depth, the applicant will not be required to construct a temporary turnaround at the terminus of the stub street. . The applicant is not proposing to construct a stub street to the west due to the fact that Larkwood Subdivision is already built out at this time. Staff is supportive of the applicant's decision to not construct a stub street to the west property line. The applicant is not proposing to construct a stub street to the 2.810-acre and 1.630-acre out parcels that are located in the southeast corner of the site. The out parcel located directly adjacent to the subject property is 2.81 O-acres and has approximately 200-feet of frontage on McMillan Road and approximately 120-feet of frontage on Locust Grove. Due to the fact that the site has a very limited amount of frontage, the District limits access to arterial roadways and the District would like to provide connectivity within this area, staff is requiring that the applicant extend East Deer Valley Street to the east property line as a stub street that will serve the 2.810-acre site in the future. Due to the fact that the stub street will be less than 150-feet in depth, the applicant will not be required to construct a temporary turnaround at the terminus of the stub street. 5. Knuckles District policy District policy 7202.7 and 7207.5 and the local Fire District standards require an island within a knuckle to be constructed with the island being a minimum of 4-feet wide with a minimum area of 1 OO-square feet and designed to safely channel traffic. The roadway around the traffic island should maintain a minimum of a 29-foot street section. The design should be reviewed and approved by ACHD's Development staff. The applicant is proposing to construct six knuckles within the subdivision. The applicant is proposing to construct one of the knuckles with an island within it. Staff is supportive of the location of the proposed knuckles. The applicant should construct the island within the knuckle a minimum of 4-feet wide with a minimum area of 1 OO-square feet and designed to 6 7 safely channel traffic. The applicant should also maintain a minimum of a 29-foot street section on either side of the island. 6. Cul-de-Sacs District policy 7205.2.1 requires turnarounds to be constructed to provide aminimum turning radius of 45-feet. The applicant should also be required to provide a minimum of a 29-foot street section on either side of any proposed center islands within the turnarounds. The medians should be constructed a minimum of 4-feet wide to total a minimum of a 1 OO-square foot area. . The applicant is proposing to construct one cul-de-sac turnaround with an island within the subdivision. The applicant should construct the cul-de-sac turnaround with a minimum turning radius of 45-feet. The applicant should construct the island within the turnaround a minimum of 4-feet wide with a minimum area of 100-square feet and designed to safely channel traffic. The applicant should also maintain a minimum of a 29-foot street section on either side of the island. 7. Islands District policy 7202.7 and 7207.5 require islands to be constructed a minimum of 4-feet wide with a minimum area of 1 OO-square feet and designed to safely channel traffic. The roadway on either side of the traffic island should maintain a minimum of a 21-foot street section. District policy also requires any proposed landscape islands/medians within the public right-of-way dedicated by this plat should be owned and maintained by a homeowners association. Notes of this should be required on the final plat. The design should be reviewed and approved by ACHD's Development staff. . The applicant is proposing to construct islands within North Timberline Avenue and East Cedar Hills Street. The applicant should construct the islands to be a minimum of 4-feet wide with a minimum area of 100-square feet and designed to safely channel traffic. The applicant should also maintain a minimum of a 21-foot street section on either side of the island.
