Project: Madelyn Estates (Basin Creek) MFP
Location: 5603 N. Locp.st Grove Road west of Locust Grove Road, approximately Y2 mile south

Highlights of Proposed Development: The modification request is to allow the following:

boundary of the subdivision adjacent to Locust" Grove Road with a six-foot high
ornamental iron fence with decorative rock veneered columns spaced every 40 feet. .
. Replace approximately 60 percent of the area indicated as sod lawn on the approved .
landscape plan with seeded lawn.

coincide with the concrete pad beneath it. (::;till 23' x 30')

approximately 50% to allow for better access to the basketball courts.
. To allow for a revised driveway location for the existing home on this site, a minor
alteration to the approved landscaping along Larkwood Street is proposed.
Other: Staff can approve minor modifications, but we felt that the change in the fencing along
Locust Grove was substantial different than what was originally approved and required Council
approvaL Staff did not identify any area where the above mentioned changes would conflict with
any UDC standards or site specific conditions of approval for this project. Staff also believes that
the proposed modifications should not have any detrimental or significant impact on the
development, or the surrounding properties. Staff reviewed the meeting minutes for both the
preliminary and final plat applications for this property to identify if any of the requested
changes would conflict with any testimony at the public hearings for this project. No such
testimony was found. .
