VII. STAFF ANALYSIS The applicant requests approval to modify the final plat for Reflection Ridge Subdivision No. 2 to remove the right-of--way and corresponding stub street (S. Luminous Avenue) that extends north to the Ridenbaugh Canal. In its place, the applicant proposes a 20-foot wide common lot containing a 5- foot wide sidewalk that will connect to the multi-use pathway along the canal. Reflection Ridge Sub. 2 MFP-13-002 - 2 - Background: When this subdivision was originally approved in 2006, the northern boundary of the site extended to the south easement line of the Ridenbaugh Canal. ACHD required the developer to submit a road trust for half the cost of the bridge with the final plat for the phase containing the bridge; however, the road trust was never collected because the development fell apart and the preliminary plat expired prior to signature on the final plat by ACHD and submittal of the funds. In 2007, the property to the north was preliminary platted as Normandy Subdivision and was required to construct the bridge with the funds that were supposed to be submitted by the developer of Reflection Ridge subdivision. The preliminary plat for expired and the bridge was not constructed. A new preliminary plat for Reflection Ridge was submitted in 2009 that corrected the northern boundary from the south side of the canal easement to the centerline of the canal. A condition of approval was not included in the new plat for a road trust to be submitted for the bridge. Therefore, no funds are being held for construction of the bridge. There is an existing 8-inch water main line in the area where the stub street was approved; said water main would need to be abandoned per Public Works' standards if the stub street is removed. The ACHD Commission heard the applicant's request to remove the stub street on October 23`d and required the stub street to remain and ROW be dedicated to the centerline of the canal/property line. ACRD did not require a road trust to be submitted for half the cost of construction of the bridge. Staff does not support the removal of the stub street and believes that eliminating the possibility for a future bridge connection at this location would be detrimental to connectivity in this area. A stub street at this location has been envisioned since the original approvals in 2006 on this site and has been shown on the all subsequent approvals for the development. Staff recognizes the confusing plat and property boundary history in this area and concurs with ACHD's recent action to not require a road trust for half the cost of the bridge over the Ridenbaugh canal. Staff understands that without the road trust for half the cost of the bridge alternative funding sources will be required to complete the bridge in the future. That stated, staff is extremely concerned that if the stub street is not constructed as approved and the right-of--way is not preserved over the canal any chance for a vehicular bridge crossing at this location will be lost. There is only one other bridge crossing planned within this mile section in the Cavanaugh Subdivision approximately 2/3 of a mile from this location. Staff views the Reflection Ridge connection as an important link within this mile section and asserts that requiring the stub street now gives the City and ACHD options for connectivity when the property to the north develops (half of the bridge can still be required from the property to the north). Staff recommends the proposed MFP be denied in accord with ACHD's decision on the matter and that the plat be revised to extend the ROW for S. Luminous Way through the common lot (Lot 1, Block 7) to the north property boundary. VIII. EXHIBITS A. Drawings 1. Vicinity Map 2. Approved Preliminary Plat 3. Approved Final Plat 4.
