Summary
Council approved the tentative map STM25‑0004 for Villages 3 and 7 (211 single‑family lots on 53.75 acres) with findings and 19 conditions; staff said off‑site road widening and traffic thresholds in the development agreement will govern required improvements.
The Sparks City Council on April 13 approved a tentative map (STM25‑0004) for Villages 3 and 7 of the 5 Ridges development, authorizing 211 single‑family lots on approximately 53.75 acres with conditions and findings as recommended by staff.
Danny Ray, senior planner, summarized the proposal and findings, saying the request covers 39 lots in Village 3 and 172 lots in Village 7, includes about 10.67 acres of deed‑restricted common area and proposes sidewalks, stormwater plans and staged improvements. He said the map had expired under statutory timelines and that staff and the planning commission recommend approval subject to conditions, including traffic analysis to determine if off‑site improvements are required.
Sienna Reed, city planner, confirmed the development agreement sets thresholds that will trigger widening of Highland Ranch Parkway and intersection improvements at Pyramid Way and Highland Ranch Parkway; engineering staff reviewed the trip generation letter and found it acceptable for the tentative map stage.
Council member motioned to approve the tentative map and adopt findings T1–T12 and conditions 1–19; the motion carried unanimously.
