Four-unit townhomes will be built on Block 4, Lots 1-18. Attached is a layout
showing the locations of the proposed units.
SITE PLAN REVIEW
Proposed Building Setbacks
Proposed building setbacks are acceptable. All units have been platted as "lot
boxes" that incorporate the unit and limited surrounding land. The common
space will be held in an association controlled and operated by the owners of the
property.
Parking
Parking is acceptable. The interior units will have a two .stall garage, plus a
driveway capable of parking two additional vehicles. The exterior units will have
a three car garage, plus a driveway capable of parking two additional vehicles.
Landscape
A landscape plan has been submitted and approved. The plan provides a
mixture of deciduous shade trees along the front of each unit, interspersed with a
variety of shrubs and flowing plants surrounding each unit and boulevard trees
along the streets.
The landscaping plan is acceptable with the following modifications:
1) One additional front yard tree needs to be planted on both Riverwood
Drive and Village Trail. Each of the eight block townhomes has seven
trees, while eight trees are required.
2) Additional boulevard trees need to be planted between Lots 1 and 2 in
addition to between Lot 18 and 36th Street.
As a reminder, the following must be included as a part of the landscaping on
site:
1) All landscaped areas must be irrigated.
2) All abutting driveways serving multiple unit buildings must have a
minimum three foot landscaped separation between the driveways,
extending from the unit to at least 8 feet behind the curb, and shall
incorporate landscaping adjacent to the garage at the common property
boundary.
3) Boulevard trees must be planted as shown on the surveys.
Architectural Elevations and Floor plan
Each building will house 4, one story units. The buildings incorporate varying
roof lines with heel trusses and extended overhangs to match the facade. The
building on Riverwood Drive will be positioned at varying angles to give different
views of the buildings, as well as being offset from units located across the
street. Vinyl lap siding, vinyl shakes and stone will be used on all buildings.
The proposed town home units are similar in style to those built directly north of
the site. However, the northern units are two unit buildings while those being
proposed are four unit buildings.
Grading, Drainage, Erosion Control, and Utility Plan
The Grading, Drainage, Erosion Control, and Utility Plans were all reviewed and
approved as part of the Preliminary Plat of Riverwood 8th Addition.
