Lisa Lane subdivision plan faces cul-de-sac question due to pond and topography
Summary
The DRC reviewed the Lisa Lane Subdivision first submittal: an 11-lot proposal on about 3 acres. Applicant argued a cul-de-sac is unavoidable because the road connects to a dead end and the site’s low area contains the stormwater pond and a preserved large tree; staff said they will review the claim and advise.
Amir, the project manager, presented the Lisa Lane Subdivision first submittal on Nov. 19, describing an 11 single-family-lot proposal on roughly 3 acres on the east side of town. Engineering representatives Josh Hinott and Kimberly Horn said the primary issues are stormwater calculations and whether removing or retaining the cul-de-sac is justified.
Josh Hinott said the site connects to a dead-end road and the low portion of the site is occupied by the required stormwater pond and a large tree the applicant wants to preserve, making a looped road difficult without significant impacts. "We're we're saving that 1 of the big trees right next to our stormwater pond, which is why we have that space there," the applicant said when explaining why a cul-de-sac may be unavoidable.
Staff said they will examine the documentation and determine whether the cul-de-sac is unavoidable due to the environmental constraints described. The DRC recorded no departmental objections in the meeting transcript; the applicant will update plans and coordinate stormwater meetings with Dale from Public Works.
