COUNCIL ACTION FORM
SUBJECT: MAJOR SITE DEVELOPMENT PLAN FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF A
12-UNIT APARTMENT BUILDING LOCATED AT 3801 TIVERTON COURT
BACKGROUND:
Applicant. Uthe Development Co. LLC
Property Owner. Uthe Development Co.LLC
Property Address: 3801 Tiverton Court
Case Number. SDP-08-34
Zoning. FS-RM Suburban Medium Density Residential
Project Description. The applicant is proposing to build a 12-unit apartment building on
the lot which is located on the northeast corner of the future intersection of Stange Road
and Tiverton Court. See the included location map. The building will contain four one-
bedroom apartments and eight two-bedroom apartments.Two garages will also be located
on the lot.
Applicant Request. The developer is requesting approval of a Major Site Development
Plan for one apartment building, located at 3801 Tiverton Court on Lot 9 of Northridge
Heights Subdivision Twelfth Addition. Uthe Development Company recently submitted four
similar applications that were reviewed by the Commission on October 15, 2008, and
approved by City Council on October 28, 2008.
Land Use Policy Plan (LUPP) Map Designation.The City's Land Use Policy Plan (LUPP)
Map designates the subject site as "Village/Suburban Residential."
Zoning. The subject property is zoned as "FS-RM" (Suburban Residential Medium
Density). The proposed uses are consistent with the zoning designation and require
approval of a Major Site Development Plan. The Development Review Committee has
reviewed the site plan. The site plan was found to comply with the requirements of the
Ames Municipal Code.
Master Plan. An updated Master Plan for Northridge Heights, which includes the subject
properties, was approved by the City Council on May 27, 2008. In order to achieve the
densities required for FS-RM,this lot, as well as the previous four similar applications,was
intended to contain no less than twelve units each.
Staff Analysis.The criteria and standards for review of a Major Site Development Plan are
found in Ames Municipal Code Section 29.1502(4)(d) and include:
When acting upon an application for a Major Site Development Plan approval, the Planning
and Zoning Commission and the City Council shall rely upon generally accepted site
planning criteria and design standards. These criteria and standards are necessary to fulfill
the intent of the Zoning Ordinance, the Land Use Policy Plan, and are the minimum
necessary to safeguard the public health, safety, aesthetics, and general welfare.
9. The design of the proposed development shall make adequate provisions for
surface and subsurface drainage to limit the rate of increased runoff of surface
water to adjacent and down stream property.
• The applicant has submitted the required storm water permit application. This
has been reviewed by the Public Works Department and found to comply with
the requirements of the City.
2. The design of the proposed development shall make adequate provision for
connection to water, sanitary sewer, electrical, and other utility lines within the
capacity limits of those utility lines.
• The water, sanitary sewer, and electrical lines have or are being installed in
accordance with the approved Preliminary Plat and infrastructure plans
submitted to and approved by the City. The private service lines serving the
building have been sized for the intended demand for these services.
3. The design of the proposed development shall make adequate provision for fire
protection through building placement, acceptable location of flammable materials,
and other measures to ensure fire safety.
• The City Fire Inspector has reviewed and approved the proposed Major Site
Development Plan for compliance with the City's Fire Code. Adequate
provisions have been made by the owner to meet the minimum requirements.
4. The design of the proposed development shall not increase the danger of erosion,
flooding, landslide, or other endangerment to adjoining and surrounding property.
• The proposed development is not located in a floodplain nor on or near steep
slopes. There is no indication that this development presents any endangerment
to adjoining and surrounding property.
5. Natural topographic and landscape features of the site shall be incorporated into the
development design.
• The site was previously used as agricultural cropland. There is very little
topographic relief on this site. What natural topographic features there are will
be slightly altered by necessary grading. The drainage pattern will direct the
storm water into approved collection systems.
2
6. The design of the interior vehicle and pedestrian circulation shall provide for
convenient flow of vehicles and movement of pedestrians and shall prevent hazards
to adjacent streets or property.
• The proposed access drive has been designed to provide convenient access to
the parking area and garages serving the building.Access is limited to one point
and with adequate separation distances between other drives. Sidewalks will be
constructed on both sides of Tiverton Court, as well as on Stange Road. Private
sidewalks are also provided from the public sidewalk to the structure.
Architectural Design Standards.There are no architectural standards for development in
this zoning designation (FS-RM). However,the Convenience Commercial Node(CVCN)to
the south does. Section 29.807(4)(a) of the Ames Municipal Code states "Buildings shall
be compatible with adjacent residential buildings and with each otherthrough similarities in
scale, proportions, form, architectural detailing, color and texture." For the proposed car
wash at 3706 Stange Road to meet these requirements, it is anticipated that certain
materials would be used on this adjacent apartment (3801 Tiverton), as well as the other
adjacent apartment at 3720 Tiverton Court (already reviewed). These materials include
stone fagade materials and roofing shingles. In particular, the stone is identified as Ohio
Rubble Hudson Bay Blend (S4760-0)manufactured by Boulder Creek Stone Products.The
shingles are identified as Moire Black Landmark Plus shingles manufactured by
CertainTeed. The stone material and shingles are proposed by the applicant to be used on
this apartment building. The shingles are proposed by the applicant to be used on this
apartment building, as well as the garages at the same address.
Conclusions. Staff has analyzed the applicant's request, reviewed the supporting
material, and conducted an on-site inspection. Based upon the above facts and analysis,
staff concludes that the proposed apartment building conforms to relevant and applicable
design standards, and that the proposed uses and structures meet with the conditions
noted and the criteria and standards for approval of a Major Site Development Plan.
Recommendation of the Planning & Zoning Commission. The Planning and Zoning
Commission held its meeting on November 5, 2008, to consider this action. The applicant
was present to answer any questions about the request. No one spoke in opposition to the
request.
With a vote of 6-0, the Commission recommended to City Council approval of the Major
Site Development Plan with the following condition:
• That the apartment at 3801 Tiverton Court use stone or masonry material of a color
and texture approved by City staff and that the apartment and garages at 3801
Tiverton Court use shingles or roofing material as approved by City staff.
3
ALTERNATIVES:
1. The City Council can approve the Major Site Development Plan for the apartment
and associated garages located at 3801 Tiverton Court,with the following condition:
• That the apartment at 3801 Tiverton Court use stone or masonry material of a
color and texture approved by City staff and that the apartment and garages at
3801 Tiverton court use shingles or roofing material as approved by City staff.
2. The City Council can approve the Major Site Development Plan for the apartment
and associated garages located at 3801 Tiverton Court with no conditions.
3. The City Council can approve the Major Site Development Plan for the apartment
and associated garages located at 3801 Tiverton Court, with other conditions.
4. The City Council can deny the Major Site Development Plan for the apartments and
associated garages located at 3801 Tiverton Court if it finds that the criteria for
approval have not been satisfied.
5. The City Council can refer this item back to City staff and/or the applicant for further
information.
MANAGER'S RECOMMENDED ACTION:
The staff believes that the Major Site Development Plan for the apartment and associated
garages located at 3801 Tiverton Court conform to relevant and applicable design
standards. Therefore, it is the recommendation of the City Manager that the City Council
act in accordance with Alternative 1, approving the Major Site Development Plan for the
apartment and associated garages located at 3801 Tiverton Court, with the following
condition:
• That the apartment at 3801 Tiverton Court use stone or masonry material of a
color and texture approved by City staff and that the apartment and garages at
3801 Tiverton court use shingles or roofing material as approved by City staff.
This is the same condition the Council imposed on the previous four similar concurrent
applications.
