III. STAFF ANALYSIS
Staff has reviewed the proposed final plat for substantial compliance with the approved preliminary
plat in accord with the requirements listed in UDC 11-6B-3C.2. Because the number of buildable lots
and common area is the same as shown on the approved preliminary plat, staff deems the final plat in
substantial compliance with the approved preliminary plat.
A segment of the City’s multi-use pathway system is proposed along the southern boundary of this
phase adjacent to the Sundall Lateral as a site amenity. All development shall comply with the
dimensional standards listed in UDC Table 11-2A-5 for the R-4 zoning district as follows:
