Becky,
The UDC does not allow a waiver to block length; it states City Council may approve a pedestrian connection in lieu of a
connecting street or alley when certain site conditions exist (i.e. a large irrigation facility such as the Ridenbaugh Canal).
Because of the steep slope up to the Ridenbaugh from the subdivision, you've stated this isn't feasible to construct a
pedestrian connection through Block 5. I suggest you explain this to the Council & ask for direction since it isn't feasible
to comply with the code and a variance or alternative compliance isn't an option.
Thanks,
Sonya
