Staff notes that, if the Hearings Official approves the modification, the applicant is still required by EC 9.2741(7) to.obtain an easement from the abutting property owners (Tax Lots 100 and 5700). North Property Line - With regard to the north property line the applicant's landscape plan . (Sheet L2) shows continuous landscaping, except for the driveway entrance, which is flanked by proposed landscape beds with new tree plantings. As shown on Sheet A1.1 of the applicant's plans (see Attachment D-2), Oakleigh Lane abuts the western portion of the north property line with 20 feet of right-of-way width. South of the existing 20-foot right-of-way, along the north property line, the applicant's plans show an additional 20 feet of special setback area to enable future right-of-way acquisition, should Oakleigh Lane need to be widened in the future. The applicant\s plans show private.landscaping and stormwater facilities within the special setback, which ;s typically not allowed. The proposed buildings are just south of the special °setback, which means that those buildings would not have sufficient setbacks from the street if it is widened in the future. Public Works staff indicates that the.special setback is not necessary, w~hfi resolves the above concerns presented by the applicant's plans. Instead, Public Works staff recommends just enough right-of-way dedication to: (a) meet the minimum right-of-way width to enable future improvement of Oakleigh Lane, with an additional 22.5 feet of right-of-way along the north property line, between.the west property line and the east margin of the proposed driveway (5.0 feet of lineal frontage); (b) provide right-of-way for a future hammerhead turnaround and sidewalk to enable further development of adjacent lands to the north (Tax Lot 200), for an area that is 1\3 feet wide and 199 feet in length, along the north property boundary; and (c) reserve an area fortia future bicycle and pedestrian connection from the future hammerhead to the east property boundary, abutting the City parklands; for an area that is 13 feet wide and 24 feet long.
