Attachment C <br /> <br /> <br />The proposed density is also similar to the existing density of surrounding existing neighborhoods. <br />This issue is discussed in greater detail at EC 9.8320(1), (2) and (10) in the staff report. <br /> <br />Street Connectivity standards are discussed in detail at EC 9.6815 in the staff report. The applicant <br />also submitted a Traffic Safety and Street Connectivity Study which estimated the proposed <br />development will not exceed the threshold of 100 or more peak hour trips; therefore, a Traffic Impact <br />Analysis is not required. Public Works staff concurs with the findings in the study, and this issue is <br />discussed in greater detail at EC 9.8320(7)(c) in the staff report. <br /> <br />The proposed preservation area that acts as a buffer to the Ribbon Trail and Hendricks Park is <br />discussed in detail at EC 9.8320(2), (3), (4), (11), and (12) in the staff report. Staff concluded that the <br />preserved area provides a visual screen of the development for those who use the Ribbon Trail for <br />recreation purposes and a significant wildlife habitat and corridor, helping to ensure a more <br />harmonious environment. <br /> <br />ATTACHMENTS "A" and "B" (pages 73-375) OMITTED <br />Attachments <br />A.Letters from Laurel Hill Valley Citizens and Fairmount Neighbors Association <br />B.Public testimony received from neighbors and other interested parties <br /> <br />Ζ <br /> <br />Page 72 <br /> <br />
