Item 10: Public Hearing: AZ 06-011 Request for Annexation and Zoning of 29.69
acres from RUT to an R-4 zone for Basin Creek Subdivision by Pacific

Item 11: Public Hearing: PP 06-009 Request for Preliminary Plat approval of 88
building lots and 10 common lots on 29.69 acres in a proposed R-4 zone
for Basin Creek Subdivision by Pacific Landmark Development - 5603
North Locust Grove Road:
Rohm: Okay. At this time I'd like to open the Public Hearing on AZ 06-011 and PP 06-
009. Both of these items relating to Basin Creek Subdivision and begin with the report.
Wilson: Thank you, Mr. Chairman, Members of the Commission. Basin Creek
Subdivision lies generally northwest of the intersection of McMillan Road and North
Locust Grove Road. Surrounding area consists of an older county sub named
Larkwood. Recently approved Tustin Subdivision came through the Commission and
Council last fall. Saguaro Canyon to the west. The Reserve to the north. Arcadia to
the north. And the previous item that did have to be continued is Cardigan Bay and is
directly to the south of the site, located on two lots here. So, Basin Creek consists of
29.69 acres, currently zoned RUT. The applicant has requested to rezone -- or to
annex and zone to an R-4 district for the preliminary plat approval of 88 single family
residential lots and the request states ten common lots, but there is -- I did confirm with
the applicant that there is only nine common lots in the request. The preliminary plat
has -- was modified from the original submittal at staffs request to match up with a stub
street proposed by Cardigan Bay. The initial submittal did stub the road to the LDS
Church, which we felt it was more appropriate to connect to the proposed stub in
Cardigan. This site does have some really good connectivity, end up with an access --
anew access off of Locust Grave Road, connecting to an approved stub in Saguaro
Canyon and an approved stub in Arcadia, stubbing to an undeveloped parcel to the
north and, then, connecting to Cardigan Bay to the south. So, the traffic circulation is
quite excellent on the site and they have -- staff is quite pleased with the number of
stubs and the layout of the subdivision, with the changes that were made with the
revised plat. A few things I will mention. The submitted preliminary plat did not have an
adequate landscape buffer along Locust Grove Road. As an arterial, Locust Grove
Road does require -- well, it's actually, an entryway corridor on the Comprehensive
Plan. So, that does require a 35-foot landscape buffer. The submitted plat did have a
25-foot landscape buffer, so we would condition the plat to increase that to the required
35 feet to be included in the common lot along Locust Grove. The parkways with trees
that were proposed as part of the subdivision -- and I can go into some landscape plans
