Recommendations Consider approving a Preliminary Plat, PP-19-00585, for Quail Creek, a two-lot detached
dwelling residential subdivision, located in the 1800 Block of Quail Creek Drive, and variances related to deferring the construction of sidewalk along Quail Creek Drive. Submitted by Atlas Surveyors on behalf of Eagle 1968.
Executive Summary This property is located in the eastern portion of the original Alvamar Planned Unit
Development. The proposed preliminary plat includes land both north and south of Quail Creek Drive. The property was previously part of the Alvamar, now Jayhawk Golf Course. The proposed application is submitted concurrently with a rezoning request for detached residential development. The project includes only two residential lots located along an existing local street. Subdivisions in this area are generally constructed with a public sidewalk on only one side of the street. A sidewalk is located on the south side of Quail Creek Drive in the Alvamar Oasis subdivision to the west. There are no public sidewalks along Quail Creek Drive to the east. Sidewalks are constructed concurrent with the public street. The street was designed prior to the current design standards requiring public sidewalk on both sides of the street. The subdivision require construction of a sidewalk on both sides of a street. In this application the street exists and a sidewalk was constructed only on one side of the street at the time of construction. A subdivider may request a variance from this standard as part of the preliminary plat review in accordance with Section 20-813 (g). The proposed subdivision represents an infill project with large residential lots as shown on the preliminary plat drawing and described in the staff report. Several technical conditions are theofpartas notificationadequatethe torecommendationinreflected provide preliminary plat.

Figure 1: Proposed Preliminary Plat
STAFF REVIEW This property is located in the eastern portion of the original Alvamar Planned Unit Development. The proposed preliminary plat includes land both north and south of Quail Creek Drive. The property was previously part of the Alvamar, now Jayhawk Golf Course. The proposed application is submitted concurrently with a rezoning request for detached residential development. The project includes only two residential lots located along an existing local street. Zoning and Land Use The property is zoned PUD and is part of the original Alvamar Planned Unit Development. The specific zoning and history is discussed in the rezoning staff report Z-19-00584. The existing land use is currently open space. This is not part of the actively used golf course. The eastern portion of the property is part of the regulatory floodplain. The applicant proposes to dedicate the floodplain area as a drainage easement. The floodplain would be contained in a separate tract and would prohibit development.

Streets and Access The property abuts Quail Creek Drive. This segment of the street was dedicated as part of the Alvamar Oasis, final plat located to the west of the subject property. The golf course was not previously platted. Quail Creek Drive was dedicated as a 60 foot wide local street. No new street dedications are required with this preliminary plat. Access to the new lots would be provided from Quail Creek Drive. Pedestrian Access and Circulation Subdivisions in this area are generally constructed with a public sidewalk on only one side of the street. A sidewalk is located on the south side of Quail Creek Drive in the Alvamar Oasis subdivision to the west. There are no public sidewalks along Quail Creek Drive to the east. Sidewalks are constructed concurrent with the public street. The street was designed prior to the current design standards requiring public sidewalk on both sides of the street. VARIANCE REQUEST The following variance is requested as part of this proposed preliminary plat.
From Section 20-811(C) requiring public sidewalks on both sides of a street to defer construction of a public sidewalk on the north side of Quail Creek Drive and provide an agreement not to protest the formation of a benefit district.
The subdivision require construction of a sidewalk on both sides of a street. In this application the street exists and a sidewalk was constructed only on one side of the street at the time of construction. A subdivider may request a variance from this standard as part of the preliminary plat review in accordance with Section 20-813 (g). VARIANCE REVIEW CRITERIA: Criteria 1: Strict application of these regulations will create an unnecessary hardship upon the subdivider. The sidewalk only affects the area located along the north side of the street adjacent to the platted lot. There are no sidewalks located to the east or west of the property at this time. The area to the west is the remaining portion of the golf course. The area to the east is proposed as a drainage easement and tract. Construction of the sidewalk to the east will require widening the bridge structure.

PP-19-00585 5
Figure 3: Bridge Crossing STAFF FINDING: Strict application of the regulations requires widening of the bridge structure to accommodate expanded area for the sidewalk. Criteria 2: The proposed variance is in harmony with the intended purpose of these regulations. This design standard was adopted in 2006 with the Land Development Code. Construction of sidewalks on both sides of a street is required with new street design. Quail Creek Drive is an existing local street, constructed with a sidewalk on one side of the street. The addition of the sidewalk along the new subdivision would not connect to a sidewalk to the east or west. Staff recommends the applicant execute an agreement not to protest the formation of a benefit district for sidewalk improvements. This creates a mechanism for future sidewalk construction. STAFF FINDING: The proposed application is for infill residential development along an existing local street. The street was constructed per the previous regulations requiring sidewalk on only one side of the street. Criteria 3: The public health, safety, and welfare will be protected. Quail Creek Drive is a local street constructed prior to the current design standards for sidewalks on both sides of the street. The south lot benefits from the exiting sidewalk, originally constructed with Quail Creek Drive. The north lot would typically include the construction of a public sidewalk within the right-of-way the length of the frontage. There is no connecting sidewalk to the east or west of the property. There are no plans to extend residential development to the west at this time. Construction of the sidewalk does not fulfill any sidewalk gap in the immediate area. Staff supports the use of a benefit district agreement for future sidewalk improvements in this area. The location is characterized by a very low density residential development pattern. STAFF FINDING: Granting this variance, to allow development without construction of the sidewalk on the north side of Quail Creek Drive, would not harm the public health, safety, or welfare. Execution of an agreement not to protest the formation of a benefit district allows for future sidewalk construction. Utilities and Infrastructure

Development of the proposed subdivision will require the extension of municipal services. Water and sanitary sewer as well as gas, electric, phone, and cable services will be extended to serve this development. The existing sanitary sewer mains are not adjacent to the proposed lots and may not be tapped for direct use as they exceed 12 inchs in diameter. A sanitary sewer main shall extend into a platted lot or an adjacent City public utility easement or an adjacent City public right-of-way a minimum of ten (10) feet per City Code - 19-214. Public Improvement Plans are required for the proposed extension. The applicant has been notified of these standards during the review of the project. The review of this project includes the submission of drainage and sanitary sewer analysis to ensure the proposed development will not negatively impact existing services. There is adequate capacity in municipal systems to serve this proposed development. Easements and Rights-of-way As noted above new right-of-way dedication is not proposed with this application. Multiple utility and drainage easements are proposed. The east side of the property is encumbered by regulatory floodplain (also identified sensitive lands). The proposed preliminary plat shows the regulatory floodplain areas contained in tracts, alsodedicated as drainage easements. An additional drainage easement is proposed along the front of Lot 1, Block 1 (north side lot) to preserve the existing storm drainage in this area. There is an existing sanitary sewer line adjacent to the property and crosses proposed Lot 1 and Tract A. There is no clear easement that encumbers the easement. Subdivsion regualtions require all exising and adjacent easements to be shown graphically. City staff requeted the applicant provide confomation regarding the existing easement status and is reflected in the conditions of approval. Easements will continue to be reviewed through the final plat and public improvement plan submissions associated with development of this property. Density and Dimensional Standards The proposed development includes 2 lots. The lots exceed the minimum lot size requirements for the proposed RS10 district. Each lot exceeds the minimum required frontage and lot width requirements. Development is generally restricted to one detached dwelling per lot. While the district would allow an accessory dwelling unit, the construction of a second detached dwelling would only be permitted if both dwellings were made affordable. The applicant has not indicated any intent to develop Affordable Housing on these lots.

Thank you for taking my call and taking the time to forward this to planning for tomorrow’s meeting. Academics always leave it to the last minute and I thought I’d seen an email address in the notice. Our concern is that the top photograph shows the drainage today, 2/24/2020 with light rain. We have lost trees along with 20x20+ feet of yard to the inadequate drainage already in play in this area. Some re‐working of the entire drainage of the golf course is needed badly, the drainage tunnel under the fairway is clearly inadequate and while we do oppose this change without some corrective action being put into play. We will attend the meeting. Best, David Barnhill, Shelley Barnhill and Dianne Karls.
