Louisville City Council Meeting September 18, 2001 Page 4 property must be zoned within ninety days of annexation. Wood stated that the zoning allows for a minimum lot size of 12,000 SF. He stated that the Planning Commission reviewed this matter at their July 19, 2001 meeting and recommended approval of the SF- MD zoning. Wood stated that the Annexation Agreement has been fully executed and has three special provisions. He reviewed Section 16 of the Annexation Agreement. Those provisions provide a density of four lots inclusive of the existing residence to remain at 201 Pine Street. The Owner shall be required to submit a PUD development plan, which discloses setbacks, lot coverage and architectural guidelines. The Owner shall be required to dedicate the required public use dedication in combination with trail improvements for a combined total of a 15% exaction. Davidson opened the public hearing and asked if the Applicant wished to make a presentation. Richard A. Hurley, 427 Lois Drive, Louisville, CO stated that he wished to address the issues brought up by Councilmen Mayer and Sisk at the August 21, 2001 City Council meeting. He stated that Councilman Sisk voiced his concern that there was an insufficient amount of developable acreage after the dedication of open space and dedication of Spruce Street. Hurley stated that there was some confusion due to a parcel shown as Pine Street dedication. He noted that the Pine Street right-of-way is 60 feet and after the dedication of Spruce Street and the 15% trail dedication, there would still be 48,000 SF. Hurley addressed Councilman Mayer's concern with the size of the homes in conjunction with the homes in the surrounding area. He stated that, through discussions with Planning Director Paul Wood, one of the three special provisions was added to the Annexation Agreement, which stipulates the development will follow the PUD process. He stated that they would work with the Planning Staff on lot coverage, architectural guidelines and standards. He stated that they have reviewed the PUD characteristics and guidelines of the Fischer Farms proposal and that of the West Pine Subdivision. He noted that they would probably use those guidelines to designate lot coverage and total square footage for the homes. Davidson asked if anyone in the audience wished to speak for or against Ordinance Nos. 1368 or 1369, Series 2001. Hearing none, Davidson closed the public hearing. COUNCIL COMMENTS Mayer stated that he had questions about the sizes of the homes proposed and asked Planning Director Wood the allowable lot coverage under the SF-MD zoning. Wood stated that he did not have the Code readily available, but estimated that it was 20%. 4
