ENGINEERS: Voorheis-Trindle-Nelson. Inc. The revision requested is a complete change in the layout of the southerly half of the tract. Changes would include new lot layouts. changes in street alignment and changes in street right-of-way widths. The reasons for the requested changes is to eliminate the present tier of lots which is exposed to the freeway. and to develop an arrangement which would allow the developer to donate to the city a parcel of land for public park and civic uses. In conjuncti~n with tllis change a ten foot wide utility easement (telephone and electric) located along the freeway is being acquired by the city and will be included as part of the proposed new frontage road adjacent to the freeway. Proposed reductions in street right-of-way widths are based upon installation of contiguous curbs. gutters and sidewalks. with an easement for public utilities. street trees, street lights. etc. to be dedicated behind the sidewalk. These easements would be considered as part of each private lot and would be counted as a portion of the required front yard (and side yard of a corner l~t). Curb- to-curb widths will not be reduced. remaining at 36 feet for local streets and 40 feet for collector streets. It is recommended that Planning Commission approval of this revised Tentative Tract map of a portion of Tentative Tract No. 5699 be subject to the following conditions: 1. The portions of the original Tentative Tract No. 5699 not shown on this map dated May 2. 1967. shall continue to conform to all conditions and regulations previously adopted for the total tract. 2. The revised portion of Tentative Tract No. 5699 shown on the map dated May 2, 1967, shall conform to all conditions and regulations previously adopted for the total tract except where those previous conditions may conflict with any new conditions adopted with said revised portion of Tentative Tract No. 5699 shown on said map dated May 2. 1967. 3. Typical sections on the revised Tentative Map dated May 2, 1967, indicate 3~ foot wode easements for public utility and landscape purposes located be~ind the sidewalk. This easement should be four (4) feet wide. . . ~ - . . Report to Planning Commission - 2 May 10. 1967 4. Typical section for the service road (Almond Ave.) along the freeway indicates a 3~ foot spacing from the freeway property line to the face of curb. To provide for clearance for existing electric poles and underground telephone structures located in this easement the dimension from freeway property line to curb face should be flexible to be governed by existing utility requirements with a minimum width to curb face of 3~ feet. Almond Ave. right-of-way width must also conform to these requirements. To allow for this variable dimension in the north-south direction the right-of-way width for Elder Avenue can be reduced to 49 feet while still maintaining a 40 foot curb-to-curb width. s. A six foot high concrete block wall shall be installed by the developer along the property line between the freeway and Almons Avenue. 6. The developer shall install approved street trees and ground cover planting in the utility easement area between the back of curb and the block wall along the freeway property line. An approved sprinkler irrigation system shall be installed for this area by the developer. 7. Note 4C on the tentative map shall be corrected to show Minimum Corner Lot Width 60 feet at midpoint. . 8. Note 4E on the tentative map shall be corrected to show Minimum Front Yard Setback = l8~ feet except side entry garage 10 feet. , 9. Candleberry Avenue. from Lampson Avenue to Marigold Street. is a collector street and shall have a curb-to-curb width of 40 feet. Minimum right-of-way width shall be 49 feet. 10. In long cul-de-sacs (over 300 feet long) the water main shall be continued through along lot line easements to connect to the water main in the next cross street. forming a loop system. 11. Final "street name selections shall be subject to approval of the Planning Commission. Street names shall not be selected until the approved revised portion of the tentative tract has been provided by the developer on a complete map which includes the remainder of the tract. . SPECIAL NOTE: At the location of the proposed parksite 3 tract lots are shown facing on Almond Avenue and rearing on the park. These lots will be very poor for residential use. being immediately adjacent to the freeway and the park recreation uses. as well as being located at the double bend in the tract's main collector street. It is therefore suggested that the city discuss with the developer the possibility that these 3 lots be included in the parksite. Respectfully submitted, e
