The applicants and I have reviewed the staff report for the project referenced above and have the
following comments regarding the proposed conditions of approval:
Site Specific Condition of Approval 1.1.5 in Exhibit B:
1.1.5 The applicant shall identify one site amenity to be provided with development of the western
portion of the site at the Planning & Zoning Commission hearing in accord with UDC 11-3-G-3.
The applicant has no objection to the condition and proposes to provide a picnic table similar to that
shown on the attached sketch. The preferred location for the site amenity is on Lot 9, Block 1 of the
Bellabrook Subdivision. This large common area lot has an existing paved pathway, landscaping, and
access to Five Mile Creek making it a more desirable location for additional site amenities than
anywhere in Bellabrook East. Bellabrook and Bellabrook East will be subject to the same set of CUR
documents and the residents from both subdivisions will have access to this common area lot.
Site Specific Condition of Approval 2.1.1 in Exhibit B:
2.1.1 Applicant shall be required to loop the proposed water system to the existing water main in S.
Locust Grove Road via an extension through Lot 1, Block 1, and stub an 8" diameter main to the end of
the east leg of the "snoopy" turnaround for potential future extension.
The applicant feels that the existing water system is adequate to serve the nine proposed residential
home lots without construction of the requested 8" water main through Lot 1, Block 1. The
requirement to construct an additional 8" water main places undue burden on this project solely for
the benefit of future developments. In lieu of installing a new 8" water line as requested, the
applicant proposes to dedicate an easement to the City for purposes of constructing and maintaining
11 Page
the water main in the future. We respectfully request that the condition of approval be modified
accordingly.
Thank you for your consideration of the application. If you have questions or require any additional
information, please let us know.
Sincerely,
Ben Thomas, PE
