City Council <br />Meeting Minutes <br />December 15, 2015 <br />Page 8 of 25 <br />updated from the preliminary PUD to make them more appropriate in a walkable <br />community. These streets and intersection designs have been reviewed and approved <br />by the Louisville Fire Protection District and the Public Works Department. Changes in <br />the Hecla Sections include 11 -foot travel lanes, as opposed to 12 -foot lanes, wider <br />sidewalks and a necked down intersection at Kaylix. <br />Public Land Dedication: 1) Outlots 1 and 2 (.24 Acres) include Trail (encumbered); <br />improvements paid by County; Landscape maintained by County and Trail maintained <br />by County. 2) Outlot 4 (.399 Acres) includes Neighborhood Park (Perpetual Easement); <br />maintained by the County and improvements paid by County. 3) Outlot 5 (.643 Acres) <br />includes Natural Area Pocket Park (Perpetual Easement); Maintained by the County <br />and Improvement paid by County. 4) The remaining .7 Acres come as payment in -lieu <br />($151,447) in the form of actual $405,850 worth of public improvements. <br />Final Planned Unit Development — Phase 1: Includes a Bike Trail; Affordable Multifamily <br />units; Affordable Senior Multifamily units; Natural area; Pocket Park; Neighborhood <br />park; Community Center and Live Work units. <br />Parking: The standards for this proposed development are located in Section 17.20 of <br />the LMC for residential parking. Parking ratios for the commercial portions of the project <br />are located in the CDDSG. The applicant is requesting a waiver to these standards and <br />seeking permission for a discounted version of Louisville's Mixed Use Development <br />Design Standards and Guidelines (MUDDSG). The applicant provided a parking <br />utilization study of BCHA's Josephine Commons and Aspinwall communities. Both <br />communities demonstrate similar conditions which influence parking demand. <br />Staff believes the findings are applicable to Kestrel based on matching demographics, <br />the mixed -use walkable nature of the project, nearby commercial businesses, its <br />proximity near the existing RTD Dash Route, the proposed Hwy 42 transit service <br />identified in RTD's Northwest Mobility Study and RTD's stated interest in extending the <br />228 route to Hwy 42 upon the development of Kestrel, DELO, and the Coal Creek <br />Station developments. With these ratios, the applicant would be required to construct <br />234 off street spaces. The proposed site plan provides 230 off- street parking spaces <br />with the 74 on- street spaces for a total of 304 spaces. <br />Drainage: Kestrel will have two detention ponds that function as a single pond. <br />Proposed attenuation flows, compliant with City criteria, would be released in storm <br />events from Kestrel's proposed underground pond into the existing City storm sewer <br />infrastructure in Christopher Village. If directing Kestrel's flows to the Christopher Plaza <br />detention pond causes undue hardship for the City, BCHA could bypass Kestrel's <br />attenuated flows directly to the existing storm sewer pipes in S. Boulder Road. <br />Referrals: Boulder Valley School District: The Boulder Valley School District (BVSD) in <br />a letter dated August 19, 2015, stated this development proposes "a student impact of <br />11 students on Louisville Elementary, 4 students on Louisville Middle School and 5 <br />
