The proposed Artesia Village Final Plat is in compliance with this requirement. 3. Yard setbacks are as follows: front-20 feet, sides-0 feet, and rear-10 feet. Front setbacks have been called out on the final plat document. All setbacks will be verified at the time building permits are issued for each house. 4. The maximum height allowed for a single family detached structure is 35 feet and will be verified with the issuance a of building permit for each house. 5. The minimum site area per unit for single family special lot line developments is 7,300 square feet. The proposed Artesia Village subdivision is proposed at 10,199 square feet per unit. The maximum dwelling units per acre is 6.0 while the proposed subdivision is at 4.27 D.U./acre, which is less dense than the code allows. The proposed subdivision is in compliance with these code requirements. 6. The maximum lot coverage is 60% and will be verified at the time building permits are issued for each house. Staff finds that the proposed final plat is in compliance with the residential requirements set forth in Section 106-33(a) of the City's Code of Ordinances as well as the approved general plan. Detention. The applicant has provided the required drainage for the subdivision. There will be one detention pond located on the east side of the subdivision. The proposed pond will tie into the proposed development to south. The functionality of these dentition facilities have been detailed in a drainage report submitted to city staff and reviewed by the City Engineer. Parkland Dedication and Park Development Fees. Section 86.25 of the City's Development Ordinance requires one acre of parkland be dedicated for every 93 proposed dwelling units. In this case, the applicant does not propose to dedicate any parkland to the city. The ordinance also allows for a cash payment in lieu of that dedication. The ordinance requires payment of $490 per dwelling unit to satisfy the cash payment in lieu of land dedication. This payment is due at the time of building permit for each individual dwelling unit. In addition to the cash payment in lieu of land dedication, the applicant is responsible for payment of a park development fee at the time of building permit. Section 86.25 (b) (3) of the Development Ordinance requires payment of a $318 fee per dwelling unit. As a result, at the time of building permit issuance for each lot the applicant will be responsible for payment of $482 + $318 = $800 to cover the cash payment in lieu of land dedication and park development fee. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends the Planning and Zoning Commission approve the Final Plat for Artesia Village with the condition that any and all outstanding staff comments be addressed prior to recordation of the plat.
