Proposed Conditions of Approval 15 00341 Sweetwater Housing PUD Preliminary Master Plan/Preliminary Plat General The final master plan/final plat application shall include all required submittal standards and incorporate all conditions of approval. Language shall be clear in the CC&Rs that no approval granted by the HOA or Architectural Committee shall violate City Code (e.g. accessory structures, building heights, fencing, location of building on lot, etc.). The final CC&Rs shall be reviewed and approved by the Community Development Director prior the recordation of a plat. Requirement of the underlying zoning prevails where no specific requested variation has been considered and granted in this PUD request. Staff recommends that there be discussion on changing the requirements for area requirements for PUD requests.  This language is found in Section 4.15e in the City of Rexburg Development Code.  Staff recommends adding language that would allow less area than those described on a case-by-case basis. Performance Standards 5.      Utilities- All new utilities must be placed underground. Water Conservation- The final master plan for each phase shall show, in sufficient detail, how the proposal will incorporate low volume irrigation systems throughout the landscaped areas of the development. Individual lot owners shall be required to incorporate low volume irrigation systems throughout their landscaped areas; this requirement shall be stated in the CC&Rs under Section 4.13. Refuse Bins- Individual trash bins shall be kept in garage or screened from the public right-of-way on days of no trash service in the neighborhood. . Glare Reduction- The proposal must adhere to the City’s lighting standards, details shall be provided with the final master plan/final plat for each phase. Common Open Space Maintenance- As the common area is proposed to be private rather than public; the homeowners association shall be responsible for common space maintenance. Until such time as a homeowners association is established, the applicant or owner of record shall be responsible for all maintenance of common areas and all unsold lots. Hardscape- In order to determine hardscape percentages the final landscape plan, submitted with the final master plan, shall provide detailed information on hardscape percentages. Landscaping Plan- The applicant has not addressed this requirement during the preliminary master plan/preliminary plat application process; therefore the final master plan shall reflect this on the landscape plan. In addition, the final CC&Rs shall have the PUD ordinance requirement written into the CC&Rs. The final landscape plan shall consider amount of trees and bushes, landscaping buffer for parking lot and solar access as required by the PUD ordinance in the placement of deciduous and evergreen trees. __________________________________________________________________  Tru North Development Rezone (2012) – Sunset clause extension Melanie Davenport motioned to City Council to extend the sunset clause for the Tru North Development Rezone by 18 months. Chuck Porter seconded the motion. Steve Oakey thought 18 months would be tough to get anything done. He suggested 36 more months for the sunset clause. Commission discussed. Melanie Davenport amended the motion to City Council, to extend the sunset clause for Tru North Development Rezone (12 00273) for 36 months from today’s date (July 16, 2018). (Zone change was from Low Density Residential Two, Light Industrial and Community Business Center to Mixed Use Two).  Chuck Porter seconded the amended motion. None opposed. Motion carried. (Cory Sorensen did not participate in the vote – recused himself due to conflict of interest) _____________________________________________________________ Thanks, Elaine
