Title
CONSIDERATION OF A PRELIMINARY PLAT FOR TRAILWOODS WEST ADDITION. (GENERALLY LOCATED ON THE EAST SIDE OF 12TH AVENUE N.W. APPROXIMATELY 1/2 MILE NORTH OF ROCK CREEK ROAD).
Body
BACKGROUND: This item is a preliminary plat for Trailwoods West Addition and is generally located on the east side of 12th Avenue N.W. approximately 1/2 mile north of Rock Creek Road. This proposed subdivision was not included in the preliminary plat for Trailwoods Addition.
The Norman Board of Parks Commissioners, at its meeting of October 2, 2014, recommended fee in lieu of park land.
Planning Commission, at its meeting of October 9, 2014, recommended to City Council that this property be placed in the Current Urban Service Area from Future Urban Service Area and that this property be placed in R-1, Single Family Dwelling District and removed from I-1, Light Industrial District. May 14, 2020, Planning Commission, on a vote of 8-0, recommended to City Council the approval of the preliminary plat for Trailwoods West Addition.
The property consists of 10.48 acres and 42 single-family residential lots.
DISCUSSION: The proposed 42 single-family residential lots in this addition are expected to generate approximately 472 trips per day, 39 AM peak hour trips, and 48 PM peak hour trips. The development is proposed the east side of 12th Avenue NW between Tecumseh Road and Rock Creek Road. Traffic capacities on 12th Avenue NW exceed the demand for existing and proposed trips as a result of this development. No negative traffic impacts are anticipated.
(See Attachment A)
Since the development, as proposed, generates less than 100 peak hour trips, this development was not required to submit a traffic impact study. The development will be served by a single access point along 12th Avenue NW and will connect to Trailwoods Addition, Section 8. Driveway spacing meets the City requirements in the Engineering Design Criteria. It was requested that Piper Drive, from its proposed intersection with 12th Avenue NW to its intersection with Lerkin Lane be designated a collector street. Limits of No Access would be defined for those lots with frontage along Piper Drive as well as an intersecting street. In these cases, the lot should take access from the intersecting street. Impact fees are applicable to this development for the signalization and planned improvements at the 12th Avenue NW intersection with Rock Creek Road. Previously determined fees of $227 per PM peak hour trip equate to $10,925.50 in traffic impact fees to be collected with the filing of the final plat.
Public improvements for this property consist of the following:
1. Fencing. Fencing/screening will be installed for the residential lots backing or siding 12th Avenue N.W.
2. Fire Hydrants. Fire hydrants will be installed in accordance with approved plans. Their locations have been approved by the Fire Department.
3. Sanitary Sewers. Eight inch (8") sanitary sewer mains (or larger) are proposed for this development.
4. Sidewalks. Sidewalks will be constructed on each lot prior to occupancy. Sidewalks will be required adjacent to 12th Avenue N.W.
5. Drainage. Storm sewers and appurtenant drainage structures will be installed in accordance with approved plans and City drainage standards and conveyed to existing privately maintained detention facility.
6. Streets. Streets will be constructed in accordance with approved plans and City paving standards. 12th Avenue N.W. will be constructed to a half-width primary arterial street. Staff may recommend deferral at such time as a final plat is submitted.
7. Traffic Signal and Intersection Improvements. The applicant will be required to fund a portion of the cost of improvements at the intersection of Rock Creek Road with 12th Avenue NW (roadway widening and new traffic signal). Previously determined fees of $227 per PM peak hour trip equate to $10,925.50 in traffic impact fees to be collected with the filing of the final plat.
8. Water Mains. Water mains will be installed in accordance with approved plans and City and Department of Environmental Quality standards. A 12" water main will be constructed adjacent to 12th Avenue N.W.
9. Public Dedications: All rights-of-ways and easements will be dedicated to the City with final platting.
Greenbelt Commission: Greenbelt Commission has reviewed and forwarded this application without comment.
