Louisville City Council Meeting February 6, 2001 Page 9. allows for commercial and office use, and the westerly two acres which is designated as Parcel J provides for mixed, residential, as well as commercial and office use. Wood noted that the submittal reflects a two phased development consistent with Phase ! of the revised preliminary PUD. Phase I of the final PUD proposed the construction of two professional/medical office buildings for a total of 13,000 SF. There is no development proposal for Phase II, or Lot 3. Phase I neither triggers the requirement for secondary emergency access, nor the full range of SH 42 highway improvements that CDOT would require in conjunction with project build-up. Wood reviewed the subdivision plat that addresses the entire six-acre parcel so as to finalize the subdivision dedication obligation. The plat proposes a 9.0% (.53 acres) land dedication in partial fulfillment of the open space use dedication. The required subdivision dedication requirement is 12%, which would be .71 acres. The applicant is requesting that the balance of the dedication (7,763 SF) be met through a cash-in-lieu dedication. Wood stated that Outlot A is being dedicated to provide additional width to implement a future trail system along the adjoining Davidson Highline Ditch. Outlot B is being dedicated to the City for right-of-way purposes for State Highway 42. Outlot C is being dedicated as a public right-of-way for the development. The right-of-way proposed is 50'wide and would stub into a turnaround easement. The easement will function temporarily as a turnaround and will be surfaced with recycled asphalt. This would remain temporary until it becomes a full cul-de-sac, or the Outlot is expanded to one of the perimeters with the intent to connect to a secondary road. Access to the development is proposed with a single access point from SH 42. The plan provides that this specific access point may function as a Right-in/Right-out/Left-in. Wood reviewed the proposed PUD for Phase I to construct Buildings A and B for a total of 13,000 SF. A total of 67 parking spaces are shown for Phase I where a minimum of 63 is required. The proposed PUD site plan is subject to the Commercial Development Design Standards and Guidelines (CDDSG). The site plan reflects that building and landscape coverage are consistent with the CDDSG. Landscape coverage exceeds the CDDSG at 51% coverage on Lot 1 and 62 % coverage on Lot 2. The applicant is requesting two exceptions to the CDDSG: 1 ) a 3' parking setback encroachment, and 2) setback relief for the existing structure. Wood stated that the 7' setback is the result of the proximity of the existing dwelling unit to the proposed alignment of the public street. The alignment of the street was set for thc purpose of preserving two mature cottonwood trees located in the median. The applicant would like to preserve the existing house structure and add on to it. If that proves to be 9
