The City of Dublin will make every effort to have these services available as needed. However, the rapid growth of the City of Dublin and Northwest Franklin County has stretched the City's capacity to provide these services to the limit. As such, the City of Dublin may be unable to make all or part of said facilities available to the applicant until some future date.

The at-cached site layout plan graphically shows the location and layout of the lots on the 23.423 acre subject site. There are seventy-sL-< single family lots. In terms of front footages, all but two lots are at least 701 in ~.Jidth and virtually all lots along Wilcox Road are 100' in width. Single family is the only category permitted. Under the nonstandard density formula used for this zoning category, density is 4.66 units per acre. Using the gross site area to number of lots procedure more familiar to the community yields a density of about 3.24 units per acre. Homes built in this subject development will be single family homes in a variety or styles to suit the local market. Typical deed restrictions will be attached to the lots, which include the requirement that the construction 0:1: any dwelling must have an enclosed garage for at least two automobiles. In addition to these restrictions, the applicant has agreed to uphold the following s-candards in this development: 1) Each home must have a chimney constructed of masonry materials. 2) There will be no split level or bi-level homes constructed in this development. 3) A :ninimum of 85% of the lots in this development will contain two-story homes. 4) On single story homes, there is a minimum requirement of 1, 450 square feet or living space. On two-story homes, there is a minimum requirement or 1,750 square feet of living space. 5) All homes will have a minimum roof pitch of 6/12. 6) All homes will have a post lamp in the front yard. 7) No lot shall contain a home with the same exterior elevation or color combination as an adjacent lot on the same street. 8) Front Elevation Treatment: a. All lots along Wilcox Road will have stone, brick, stucco, or wood treatment on the front elevation. Any other material will have a natural look. b. 80% of lots 1 thru 10, 18 thru 27, 36 thru 39, and 47 thru 57, will have stone, brick, stucco, or wood treatment on the front elevation. Any other material will have a natural look. ..~-.., ". '.~...

The Applicant TNill set up a Homeowners Association TNhich TNill be responsible for continually maintaining the entry features and the fence along the southern boundary of the site. An annual assessment that is adequate to maintain these features TNill be collected and made mandatory by the inclusion of the association in the development's deed restrictions. C. Proposed size, location and use of non residential portions of the site. There is only one nonresidential portion of the site, a 2.4 acre park located at the center of the. northern end of the site. This portion of the site will be deeded to the City of Dublin in accord TNith the parkland ordinances. The park is unique in Dublin residential subdivisions in that it will be fully developed by the applicant as part of the project, and TNill be completed before a permit for the 10th (tenth) foundation is issued in Phase 1. Applicant has planned and negoitiated the park TNith the City's Parks Department. The park represents a combination of land and cash contribution. Using the formula as instructed by City Code, this combination includes 2.4 acres of land to be dedicated and $65,279.00 to be contributed tOTNards development of this park. The fully developed park TNill serve as a focal point for the development, enhancing interest and quality. It TNill also provide an innnediate parkland amenity, a significant aspect when it is considered that the general area is at this point largely undeveloped~ In terms of concept, the park represents a european approach. It combines a water feature TNith garden type landscaping elements. There are changes in ele'lation to provide interest and also to provide seating. A gazebo type structure is located in the center of the shalloTN pool and is reachable by steps. There are several areas delineated TNith pavers and formal landscaping that are open, but which suggest isolation, and invite small groups or families to gather. It is envisioned that the park will serve as a peaceful place TNhere people TNill gather to visit or relax TNhen their schedules permit it. In addition to the developed elements and formal landscaping, there are also turf areas provided on the eastern and TNestern portions of the park. These are large, enough to support children's play but it is envisioned that organized sporting events TNill occur in the larger park to the south on Wilcox Road and to the north in previously approved residential developments. The park faces onto Rings Road as well as a major interior road TNithin the site. As such, it invites use not only by this development, but the area as a whole. It also serves as a visible open space amenity to the municipal traffic using Rings Road. By providing a pleasing aspect, it is also hoped that the park TNill enhance quality and desirability of the lots TNithin the subdivision. Tr '. .. '-~'. ..... __ . ~ ....'.' . :,:. , : :" ......"n.. , ' ~ .-, MAR _ 4 _ 2- D. The proposed provision of water, sanitary sewer and surface drainage. Water ~.Jill be provided from planned water mains to be constructed to the south. It is anticipated that the City Engineer will desire the applicant to further incorporate linkages to other planned water mains accessing the site from the north and the east in accord with municipal master plans. Coordination with the Washington Township Fire Department and engineering consultants has determined that fire flows exceed minimum requirements. Extension of water lines within the subdivision will bring hydrants into an area that is presently unserved. This site falls in the tributary area which will be serviced by the extension of the Cramer Ditch Sewer. However, due to the timing differences between the construction or the subdivision and the sewer, the applicant is requesting a permanent diversion through the multifamily site to the south while still allocating funds towards the completion of the Cramer Ditch Sewer. The decision on the sanitary sewer diversion issue will be made based on the satisfaction or the City Engineer in conjunction with the platting process and will not be related to or have any bearing on the rezoning of this property. Surface drainage will be provided by relocation of the existing ditch as shown on the attached site plan. Other drainage requirements will be in full compliance with the provisions of Chapter 1313. All flood hazard areas will be designaced on all plans, plats, and documents arter submission or more complete flood documentation to the satisraction or the City Engineer, including plan ~odification if necessary. Eo Proposed t=affic circulation patterns. The city is presently contemplating relocation or restructuring of the road network for the area. This may include a cuI de sac on Wilcox Road and relocation or Wilcox Road to flow along the southern boundary of the site. In preparation for this possibility, the landowner to the south has provided for one half or the right of way for this relocation. Applicant cannot dictate the direction the City will take. What the applicant has done is to provide a plan that will allow the city to pursue the option of either leaving the present roadway system in place or installing the new system. Applicant will dedicate a 30' strip of land along the southern boundary of the site, the northern half of the right of way which will permit this roadway to be relocated to this location. If the roadway is not relocated, the 30' strip may be attached to the southern boundary of the lots along the south side of the site, exclusive of the bike path or similar easement. Applicant wishes to emphasize that it is not attempting to advance or support any of the possible alignments, but rather to simply facilitate whatever direction is chosen. This development can proceed without the ultimate decision as to roadways being made. ~ ., ..._^;O....-''"''-...,.-<L:.,..~..,.........,..""'.,.'''...-.".~...-.---..>-.__,,._~'~ Ti) :~rJ?y , : ~ \j; MAR Ai -3- ..... .~-- - ..... In ter:ns ~.:: roadway access to the planned lots, all lots except those ,-,J- on Wilcox Road solely access internal streets. There are no roadway curb cuts other than one street on to Rings Road, and one on to the new proposed Wilcox Road, and most lots access the interior streets. The remaining lots on Wilcox Road are meant to mirror the existing single family homes located on the west side of Wilcox Road, and these have drives accessing Wilcox Road. Generally, access to the site area will be excellent with two nearby interchanges. Avery Road and the new Corfman Road will provide ready access to municipal facilities to the north of Route 33. Shopping will be available either to the north, south, or east, and access in all of those directions appears to be excellent. A bike path will be constructed along the east side of Wilcox Road in conformance with City standards upon completion of fifty per- cent (50%) of the houses along Wilcox Road. F. Prouosed schedule of site development. , The site will be developed in two phases. Development will proceed after zoning and engineering requirements can be met. It is anticipated that construction or Phase I will begin in 1991 and Phase 2 in 1992. G. Relationshin of site to existing and planned land use. The site is the transitional area betT.-7een presently zoned multifamily land uses to the south and planned single family land uses to the north. This rerlects the diminishing intensity or use that results from the movement westward from ~-270, where non residential uses are appropriate. It is also reflective 01: the transition rrom the more intense uses associated with Tuttle Crossing Boulevard to the south, which is expected to be a major road. This latter t~ansition is effectively made with the relatively low density condominium development immediately to the south. It is anticipated that land uses to the north of this site will be single family, ultimately connecting with the Heather Glen development rarther north on 1;-J'ilcox Road. It is further contemplated that land uses to the west will remain single family, and that some degree of single family will be developed north and west or Rings and Wilcox Roads. Basically, it is expected that this site will form the southeast section of a substantial single family neighborhood having multifamily non residential uses for boundaries, and having close urban access to shopping and trarric arteries. The closest parallel of this neighborhood in terms of existing development in Dublin would be Waterrord Village. The gross area or this single family residential area would appear to be roughly 300 acres versus about :00 for Waterrord Village. The development of this tract is crucial to fulfillment or the above concept, as its development in a single family category will virtually assure single family viability in the area between this site and the Heather Glen development. Conversely, non single family development on this site would make single family uses on the other three corners of the Wilcox and Rings Roads intersection non sustainable. ~- .-....~-....,.---~, """""..

Proposed size, location and use of non residential portions of the site. There is only one nonresidential portion of the site, a 2.4 acre park located at the center of the _ northern end of the site. This portion of the site will be deeded to the City of Dublin in accord with the parkland ordinances. The park is unique in Dublin residential subdivisions in that it will be fully developed by the applicant as part of the project, and will be completed before a permit for the 10th (tenth) foundation is issued in Phase 1. Applicant has planned and negoitiated the park with the City's Parks Department. The park represents a combination of land and cash contribution. Using the formula as instructed by City Code, this combination includes 2.4 acres of land to be dedicated and $65,279.00 to be contributed towards development of this park. The fully developed park will serve as a focal point for the development, enhancing interest and quality. It will also provide an immediate parkland amenity, a significant aspect when it is considered that the general area is at this point largely undeveloped. In terms of concept, the park represents a european approach. It combines a water feature with garden type landscaping elements. There are changes in elevation to provide interest and also to provide seating. A gazebo type structure is located in the center of the shallow pool and is reachable by steps. There are several areas delineated with pavers and formal landscaping that are open, but which suggest isolation, and invite small groups or families to gather. It is envisioned that the park will serve as a peaceful place where people will gather to visit or relax when their schedules permit it. In addition to the developed elements and formal landscaping, there are also turf areas provided on the eastern and western portions of the park. These are large. enough to support children's play but it is envisioned that organized sporting events will occur in the larger park to the south on Wilcox Road and to the north in previously approved residential developments. The park faces onto Rings Road as well as a major interior road within the site. As such, it invites use not only by this development, but the area as a whole. It also serves as a visible open space amenity to the municipal traffic using Rings Road. By providing a pleasing aspect, it is also hoped that the park will enhance quality and desirability of the lots within the subdivision. MAR 4 - -2- D. The proposed provision of water, sanitary sewer and surface drainage. Water ....ill be provided from planned water mains to be constructed to the south. It is anticipated that the City Engineer will desire the applicant to further incorporate linkages to other planned water mains accessing the site from the north and the east in accord with municipal master plans. Coordination with the Washington Township Fire Department and engineering consultants has determined that fire flows exceed minimum requirements. Extension of water lines within the subdivision will bring hydrants into an area that is presently unserved. This site falls in the tributary area which will be serviced by the extension of the Cramer Ditch Sewer. However, due to the timing differences between the construction of the subdivision and the sewer, the applicant is requesting a permanent diversion through the multifamily site to the south while still allocating funds towards the completion of the Cramer Ditch Sewer. The decision on the sanitary sewer diversion issue will be made based on the satisfaction of the City Engineer in conjunction with the platting process and will not be related to or have any bearing on the rezoning of this property. Surface drainage will be provided by relocation of the existing ditch as shown on the attached site plan. Other drainage requirements will be in full compliance '.Ji t h the provisions of Chapter 1313. All flood hazard areas will be designaced on all plans, plats, and documents arter submission of more complete flood documentation to the satisfaction of the City Engineer, including plan ~odification if necessary. Eo Proposed traffic circulation patterns. The city is presently contemplating relocation or restructuring of the road network for the area. This may include a cuI de sac on ~olilcox Road and relocation of Wilcox Road to flow along the southern boundary of the site. In preparation for this possibility, the landowner to the south has provided for one half or the right of way for this relocation. Applicant cannot dictate the direction the City will take. What the applicant has done is to provide a plan that will allow the city to pursue the option of either leaving the present roadway system in place or installing the new system. Applicant will dedicate a 30' strip of land along the southern boundary or the site, the northern half of the right of way which will permit this roadway to be relocated to this location. If the roadway is not relocated, the 30' strip may be attached to the southern boundary of the lots along the south side of the site, exclusive of the bike path or similar easement. Applicant wishes to emphasize that it is not attempting to advance or support any of the possible alignments, but rather to simply facilitate whatever direction is chosen. This development can proceed without the ultimate decision as to roadways being made. "''''0 ___".........c,.,..;.....,__.'C".

There are no roadway curb cuts other than one street on to Rings Road, and one on to the new proposed Wilcox Road, and most lots access the interior streets. The remaining lots on Wilcox Road are meant to mirror the existing single family homes located on the west side of Wilcox Road, and these have drives accessing Wilcox Road. Generally, access to the site area will be excellent with two nearby interchanges. Avery Road and the new Coffman Road will provide ready access to municipal facilities to the north of Route 33. Shopping will be available either to the north, south, or east, and access in all of those directions appears to be excellent. A bike path will be constructed along the east side of Wilcox Road in conformance with City standards upon completion of fifty per- cent (50%) of the houses along Wilcox Road. F. Prooosed schedule of site develooment. " The site will be developed in two phases. Development will proceed after zoning and engineering requirements can be met. It is anticipated that construction of Phase I will begin in 1991 and Phase 2 in 1992. G. Relationship of site to existing and planned land use. The site is the transitional area between presently zoned multifamily land uses to the south and planned single family land uses to the north. This reflects :he diminishing intensity of use that results from the movement westward from ~-270, where non residential uses are appropriate. It is also reflective OI the transition from the more intense uses associated with Tuttle Crossing Boulevard to the south, which is expected to be a major road. This latter t~ansition is effectively made with the relatively low density condominium development immediately to the south. It is a.nticipated that land uses to the north of this site will be single family, ultimately connecting with the Heather Glen development farther north on \.J'ilcox Road. It is further contemplated that land uses to the west will remain single family, and that some degree of single family will be developed north and west of Rings and Wilcox Roads. Basically, it is expected that this site will form the southeast section of a substantial single family neighborhood having multifamily non residential uses for boundaries, and having close urban access to shopping and traffic arteries. The closest parallel of this neighborhood in terms of existing development in Dublin would be Waterford Village. The gross area of this single family residential area would appear to be roughly 300 acres versus about :00 for Waterford Village. The development of this tract is crucial to fulfillment of the above concept, as its development in a single family category will virtually assure single family viability in the area betT.Jeen this site and the Heather Glen development. Conversely, non single family development on this site would make single family uses on the other three corners of the Wilcox and Rings Roads intersection non sustainable. .~ ..,., \ ;.'

SE CORNER OF RINGS AND WILCOX ROADS DEVELOPMENT PLAN TEXT ' '~.'~~ A. Proposed location and size of residential units. The attached site layout plan graphically shows the location and layout of the lots on the 23.423 acre subject site. There are seventy-six single family lots. In terms of front footages, all but two lots are at least 70' in width and virtually all lots along Wilcox Road are 100' in width. Single family is the only category permitted. Under the nonstandard density formula used for this zoning category, density is 4.66 units per acre. Using the gross site area to number of lots procedure more familiar to the community yields a density of about 3.24 units per acre. Homes buil t in this subject development will be single family homes in a variety of styles to suit the local market. Typical deed restrictions will be attached to the lots, which include the requirement that the construction of any dwelling must have an enclosed garage for at least two automobiles. In addition ~o these restrictions, the applicant has agreed to uphold the following standards in this development: 1) Each home must have a chimney constructed of masonry materials. 2) There will be no split level or bi-level homes constructed in this development. 3) A minimum of 85% of the lots in this development will contain two-story homes. 4) On single story homes, there is a minimum requirement of 1,450 square feet of living space. On two-story homes, there is a minimum requirement of 1,750 square feet of living space. 5) All homes will have a minimum roof pitch of 6/12. 6) All homes will have a post lamp in the front yard. 7) No lot shall contain a home with the same exterior elevation or color combination as an adjacent lot on the same street. 8) Front Elevation Treatment: a. All lots along Wilcox Road will have stone, brick, stucco, or wood treatment on the front elevation. Any other material will have a natural look. b. 80% of lots 1 thru 10, 18 thru 27, 36 thru 39, and 47 thru 57, will have stone, brick, stucco, or wood treatment on the front elevation. Any other material will have a natural look. c. 50% of all remaining lots will have stone, brick stucco, or wood treatment on the front elevation. Any other material will have a natural look. B.

Date -5- MEETING MINUTES DUBLIN PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION FEBRUARY 7,1991 Page 1 3. Rezoning Application Z90-007 - Davidson Phillips, Inc. Mr. Geese asked for a motion to take this Rezoning Application off the table. Mr. Fishman motioned to take this application off the table. Mr. Manus seconded the motion and the vote was as follows: Ms. Stillwell , yes; Mr. Manus, yes; Mr. Fishman, yes; Mr. Geese, yes; Mr. Kranstuber, yes; Mr. Leffler, yes; Mr. Campbell, yes. (7-0) Ms. Clarke stated the site is located on the southeast corner of Rings Road and Wilcox Road. The land still carries R-1B, Limited Suburban Residential District Zoning, which is a Washington Township zoning classification. The proposal is to rezone the site from R-1B to PLR, Planned Low Density Residential District. The layout shows 76 single-family lots, most of which are 70-feet by 120-feet throughout the interior of the project. The lots along Wilcox Road are 100 feet in width. The site has been expanded slightly from 23.4 acres to 23.8 acres and now includes a 20-foot wide strip off the south side of the Martin and Long houses which face on Rings Road. Ms. Clarke said the biggest issue for the Staff has been that of the floodwater which passes through this site. The area is very flat. This is an area for which there has not been a FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) study done. There are no floodway and flood insurance rate maps prepared, but the Cramer Creek does flood on a periodic basis. Staff was extremely concerned about approving a plan at a set density with a set layout pattern that may need to be altered when additional flood data is submitted. After extensive meetings between the Planning and Engineering staff, it was felt that Chapter 1313 required that the City identify and delineate floodways, floodway fringe areas and flood hazard areas to the best of its ability. Based on that Ordinance, the applicant must comply and clearly delineate all of the flood data on all plans and documents. This is a Rezoning Application and final flood data has not been submitted. The applicant's consulting engineer has a proposal for dealing with floodwater, and the preliminary analysis shows this is reasonable. One variation in this application is the full requirement of parks is not being dedicated. The applicant wishes to dedicate approximately half of the required parkland and to fully develop it. This proposal has been accepted by the Parks Director and Committee. Staff is recommending approval of this subject to the conditions listed below: 1. Resolution of the sanitary sewer diversion issue to the satisfaction of the City Engineer in conjunction with the platting process, not the rezoning process; 2. Full compliance with the provisions of Chapter 1313; designation of all flood hazard areas in all plans, plats, and documents after submission of more complete flood documentation to the satisfaction of the City Engineer, including plan modification if necessary (if more conclusive flood data that one or more lots need to be deleted, this will need to be done; Minutes of Meeting Dublin Planning and Zoning Commission February 7, 1991 Page 2 3. Installation of the bikepath on the east side of Wilcox Road and provision of adequate easement area along the south property line for a bikepath (the 60-foot right-of-way width is not quite wide enough for the road which needs to be constructed and a bikepath). 4. Installation of sidewalks and street trees throughout the subdivision to meet the Code requirement; s. Resolution of treatment and maintenance along the new right-of-way (the applicant proposes to build a wood fence with stone pillars along the entire south boundary but has not submitted the elevation to the Commission in their packets. Staff would like to investigate different treatments along that property line. Mounding and landscaping only improve with age and fencing deteriorates. The text creates a homeowner's association which will maintain both that fence and the entry features that are to be constructed); 6. Right-of-way dedication along the perimeter roads to comply with the Community Plan (both Wilcox and Rings Road are shown on the Community Plan so the right-of-way must be consistent with that plan); 7. Revisions of the plan and text to clarify, correct information and remove contradictions. The text references incorrect lot numbers compared to this final plan. There are several inconsistencies where the plan and the text do not match and these need to be straightened up before it is presented to Council. Mr. Manus asked about the other contradictions. Ms. Clarke said the plan and the text reference a different pavement width for the street and the method of measurement is not stated. The plan does not show sidewalks and Staff wants to ensure they are included. There is nothing in the text which indicates that the easement along the southern line will be provided. Mr. Charlie Ruma, applicant, addressed the seven items listed in the Staff Report. He said he is not asking for a full diversion of the sanitary sewer. He said 6-8 acres of the site goes south and the tributary line is on his property. Some of the stormwater will go south. He is asking for a diversion to allow him to utilize the gravity sewer that is under construction just to the south. That sewer is deep enough to utilize on a gravity basis. He agrees to pay his fair share for the extension of the sewer line running along Rings Road in addition to making any connection to the south. Mr. Geese asked Mr. Willis if there were any engineering problems with this. Mr. Willis agrees that this decision is better delayed until the Final Development Plan comes in. Mr. Ruma said the flood hazard area on all plans will be completed. The bikepath will be built along Wilcox Road from Rings Road to the new Wilcox Road area. He said he is in full accord with the easement on the south for the future bikepath. He said he will move his fence back an appropriate number of feet so it doesn't interfere with the bikepath. This is being worked out with the City Parks Department. He said it is his intention to have sidewalks and street trees in accordance with the typical subdivision regulations of Dublin. Mr. Ruma said he had his landscape architect do a small plan of the fence. The stone pillars are set approximately 200' apart. The fence is 6' high and it will have some ground cover growing in front with landscaping along the outside depending upon how much space left after the Minutes of Meeting Dublin Planning and Zoning Commission February 7, 1991 Page 3 bikepath is installed. The major concern about this fence was maintenance. A homeowner's association will be collecting money to maintain the fence and the entryway along Rings Road. This fence would allow for screening of headlights and traffic along New Wilcox Road. One major change in this plan is the elimination of one of the entrances along New Wilcox Road. The park will be developed by Mr. Ruma in Phase 1. Ms. Clarke said she is satisfied with Mr. Ruma's plan. She said Mr. Ruma stated that he is willing to pay his fair share and his text says a share. She asked that the paperwork cleared up to reflect the oral commitment. She said any diversion request is not typically granted as part of a Rezoning Application. It should be determined at the time of development, at the time the sanitary sewer plan would be approved normally, at the Final Plat. Mr. Willis said, several months ago, the City agreed to allow for a temporary diversion for part of this property. The purpose was to continue development during the EPA connection ban because the diversion line does not go to the City's main lift station. Since the end of the connection ban in mid-September, Staff has been less willing to entertain the idea of a diversion of the sanitary sewer, temporary or permanent. Mr. Fishman asked if Mr. Ruma was willing to pay whatever money is needed to complete the sewer? Mr. Willis said Mr. Ruma is asking for a permanent diversion of his sewage flow to the south outside the appropriate tributary area. Mr. Willis said Mr. Ruma stated he is willing to work with neighbors in the area to construct the sewer. Mr. Fishman asked if that happened. Mr. Ruma said he has two different costs to build the sewer: $600,000 and $800,000 depending upon how much rock is encountered under I-270. The first $300,000 is a Capital Improvement contribution on behalf of the City which has not yet been approved. He asked if the City wants it through the lift station where there are problems, or it could run the other way which is also the City's sewer but does not use that lift station. Mr. Bowman said there are three reasons why the City, at the beginning, insisted the property be serviced within the proper tributary: 1. That is the way the sewer system is designed to include all the land in the tributary and not overload another line; 2. Developers contribute to the construction of the proper sewer lines as they come up; 3. Keeps development orderly as long as the infrastructure is built to accompany new development. Mr. Foegler said it has been a matter of policy not to divert to other tributaries. He said those collection lines within those tributaries are designed to handle anticipated flows. Mr. Foegler said his site is serviceable by sewer and approval of the project is recommended. Several options exist and Staff wants to keep the flexibility to pursue those options. If the joint option for the Cramer sewage line extension can be made with Mr. Ruma and adjacent property owners, Staff would cooperate fully. Mr. Foegler suggested that the Commission not specify the preferred option as part of the Rezoning because several sewer options exist. If it does go to the south and Minutes of Meeting Dublin Planning and Zoning Commission February 7, 1991 Page 4 goes through columbus' system, it might require special approval from Columbus and Dublin. Mr. Ruma said he had no problem with Mr. Foegler's suggestion. Mr. Bowman referred to the Policy statement dated January 31, 1991, and said this is a special planning area with special planning concerns and Staff will continue to do what they can to achieve the goals and objectives. Ms. Chris Bell, a Wilcox Road resident, referred to item #4 of the Policy statement which states if there are to be changes to the comprehensive plan for the land uses, there is a procedure to be followed. She asked that this procedure be followed in the future. Mr. Bill Yoder, Wilcox Road resident, said in view of the Policy Statement worked out with Staff regarding roadway and planning issues and in view of the written development commitments worked out with Mr. Ruma, the majority of the area residents withdraw their objections to the proposed development. Mr. Foegler said due to the residents' uncertainty about the level of commitments were that were made, and the Commission and Council were struggling with that also. Staff tried to clarify what those policy commitments were in terms of land use, procedure and comprehensive planning for the future. He asked that the Commission endorse the Policy Statement dated January 31, 1991, if it reflects their understanding of the policy commitments and the planning commitments for that area. Mr. Fishman asked if Staff is satisfied with the sewer issue? Mr. Bowman said yes. Mr. Fishman also asked about the timing of the park and the bikepaths. He asked if the bikepath is going in before the first houses are built? Mr. Ruma said the park will, and when the area is developed along Wilcox, the bikepath will. Mr. Fishman asked Mr. Ruma to agree to a condition that the park is built before the basements are dug. Mr. Ruma countered that the park can be developed before the 10th basement is dug in Phase 1. Mr. Ruma said before any lots are sold along Wilcox Road the bikepath will be developed and will include a bridge structure for Phase 2. Mr. Fishman said he is against the fence. He suggested a forced association, which means it is written in the deed that every homeowner will forever pay a fee to maintain entryways and fence. Ms. Jordan asked for a clarification of the bikepath along Wilcox Road. She suggested that the bikepath be installed after 50% of the houses are built along Wilcox Road due to damage of bikepaths during construction. Mr. Campbell referred to the Policy Statement and that an understanding among the residents, the city and developers as to what may happen in the future if there would be a change in the Southwest Quadrant Plan. He said this Plan is subject to some review. He it would take a hearing at the Planning and Zoning Commission and then at Council to change the Plan. The Plan would then be changed by Council after a recommendation by the Planning and Zoning Commission. Mr. Campbell said he supports this application. Mr. Manus said he also supports this application. Minutes of Meeting Dublin Planning and Zoning Commission February 7, 1991 Page 5 Mr. Leffler asked Mr. Ruma if he intends to use a photo cellon the post lamps. Mr. Ruma said no it is controlled by a switch in the house. Mr. Leffler also mentioned the placement of the bike path along the east side of Wilcox Road. He said there is a ditch there now and asked Mr. Ruma how he envisioned the relationship of this bikepath and the ditch. Mr. Ruma said if there is a ditch to be maintained for drainage along Wilcox Road, he will make sure it is maintained and will build a bikepath farther in. Mr. Leffler asked about the park and the reflecting pond within it. He feels a reflecting pond would be useless. Mr. Ruma said the reflecting pool is eight inches deep, will have a fountain feature, a wall to enclose the water and will have a series of steps. He said the pond was designed by Keith Myers and the Parks Director endorses the park plan. Ms. Jordan said the concept plan was reviewed favorably by the Parks and Recreation Committee. She said the City will close on some 7.5 acres of property in the area which will be wide open space (7.5 acres) with tennis and basketball courts. MOTION #1: Mr. Fishman motioned to accept this Rezoning Application with the conditions listed below: 1. Resolution of the sanitary sewer diversion issue to the satisfaction of the City Engineer in conjunction with the platting process; 2. Full compliance with the provisions of Chapter 1313; designation of all flood hazard areas in all plans, plats, and documents after submission of more complete flood documentation to the satisfaction of the City Engineer, including plan modification if necessary; 3. Installation of the bikepath as requested and provision of adequate easement area along the south property line for same; 4. Installation of sidewalks and street trees to meet Code; 5. Resolution of treatment and maintenance along the new right-of-way; 6. Right-of-way dedication on perimeter to comply with Community Plan; 7. Revisions to the plan and text to clarify, correct information and remove contradictions; 8. The park be completed before a permit for the 10th foundation is issued in Phase 1; 9. The bikepath along Wilcox Road be installed upon completion of 50% of the houses along Wilcox Road in Phase 2; and 10. That a forced association be formed and a yearly assessment that is adequate to maintain the common properties, including the fence be made part of the deed restrictions for the subdivision. Mr. Kranstuber seconded the motion and the vote was as follows: Mr. Campbell, yes; Mr. Manus, yes; Ms. Stillwell, yes; Mr. Leffler, yes; Mr. Geese, yes; Mr. Fishman, yes; and Mr. Kranstuber, yes. (Rezoning Application Approved 7-0) MOTION #2: Mr. Campbell motioned to endorse the Policy Statement regarding the Southwest Quadrant Planning Efforts dated January 31, 1991, and prepared by the Development Department Staff. Minutes of Meeting Dublin Planning and Zoning Commission February 7, 1991 Page 6 Ms. Stillwell seconded the motion and the vote was as follows: Mr. Manus, yes; Mr. Fishman, yes; Mr. Geese, yes; Mr. Kranstuber, yes; Mr. Leffler, abstain; Ms. Stillwell, yes; and Mr. Campbell, yes. (Policy statement Approved 6-0-1) Respectfully Submitted, Emily Renk t, secretary Planning and Zoning Commission . STAFF REPORT ADDENDUM 3" Rezoning Application Z90-007 - Davidson phillips, Inc. The applicant has submitted revised copies of his proposed deed restrictions, development text, and rezoning application, and the Staff has the opportunity to meet with the consulting architect since the packets were delivered last Friday. The restrictions and the text better outline the character of the proposed development, and these documents incorporate many of the requests made by the current neighbors in the area relating to the style, size, materials and standards of the proposed housing. The rezoning application itself was revised to include a 20- foot wide strip of land from the south end of the Martin and Long properties which front on Rings Road. This increases the acreage under consideration from 23.4 to 23.8 acres. However, the most important consideration was the presentation of additional data by the consulting engineer with regard to the potential for flooding. On the basis of field observations during heavy rain and the input from the residents of the area, Staff has reason to believe that flood hazard is an issue at the subject site, even though there is no federal documentation available currently. The Cramer Creek or Cramer Ditch flows through the northern section of the site and would be rechannelled under this proposal for development. The consulting enginer has performed the preliminary flood study, has made a presentation to the Staff and will do so for the Commission as well. The City will not require an actual, formal flood study prior to action by the Planning and Zoning Commission, but the applicant will be required to fully comply with Chapter 1313 of the Codified Ordinances (flood management regulation). On the basis of the preliminary information provided, the development proposal seems reasonable. Chapter 1313 requires tha~:the City identify and delineate floodways, fringe and flood hazard areas to the best of its ability. Based upon that ordinance, the applicant must comply and clearly delineate all flood data on all plans and.documents. Any resulting no build zones will need to be noted and respected through and after the development process. The City Engineer cannot support any application unless the applicant agrees to provide the information necessary and to restrict development or construction on the basis of that information, as required by Chapter 1313 . The floodway (the actual channel that carries the flood waters) must be properly sized, constructed and unrestricted, and Flood Zone A (the level of the 100 year flood) must be completely identified on all plans and documents with construction within it restricted accordingly. Thus, only tentative approval of the layout can be given at this time due to the flood issue. Only when the complete flood hazard documentation has been received and accepted by the City can final approval actually be given to this particular street pattern and lot layout. It is possible that in order to successfully deal with the storm water, that one or more lots may need to be eliminated. However, on the basis of the preliminary information, this proposal may emerge intact. ,. . Staff Report Addendum February 7, 1991 Page 2 With regard to the issue which was discussed at great length at the last meeting of the Planning and Zoning Commission, the road network, ~e Staff is hopeful that the attached Policy statement will be of some assistance. While no commitment can prudently be made until public hearings are held after the arterial system is in place, the statement does reaffirm the preservation of the single family neighborhood as an objective. The proposal from the developer for the de~eication of a smaller park site and his development of it has been openly presented in the text. There are a couple of items which have not been made completely clear in the latest documentation. Along the new proposed Wilcon Road, along the entire southern exposure of the site, the applicant proposes to build a fence to provide a consistent treatment as well as security for the new residents. While the fence as proposed (board fence with stone columns) is quite attractive, Staff would like to investigate a different solution for the treatment of this area, one which relies more upon mounding and vegetation and will improve with age. A homeowners' association is proposed to take care of the long term maintenance of both the entry features and the southern fence. ~ The Parks Director has met with the applicant and recommends that a bikepath be installed with this development along the east side of existing Wilcdx Road. Another btkepath is proposed along the new roadway, but this is expect~d to be installed as part of the road construction project. However, there will be the need for an additional easement to assure that a regulation width bikepath and the full roadway can be installed. Sidewalks will be installed on all oof the remaining street frontages. Although the street trees on the plan are shown as exclusively internal to the development, street treet will be required on the perimeter as well. Staff is recommending approval of this Planned Low Density Residential rezoning request subject to: 1. Resolution of the sanitary sewer diversion issue to the satisfaction of the City Engineer in conjunction with the platting process~ 2. Full compliance with the provisions of Chapter 1313; designation of all flood hazard areas in all plans, plats, and documents after submission of more complete flood documentation to the satisfaction of the City Engineer, including plan modification if necessary~ 3.

Rezoning Application Z90-007 - Davidson Phillips, Inc. A. This application was tabled at the January 10, 1991 meeting of the Planning and Zoning Commission, after a very lengthy discussion which centered around the roadway network in the Southwest Area. The site is located on the southeast corner of Rings Road and Wilcox Road. The site and all of the land around it were included in the SOD-plus acre annexation of last July. The land still carries R-1B, Limited Suburban Residential District Zoning, which is a Washington Township zoning classification that is quite similar to Dublin's R-1, Restricted Suburban Residential District. The site has been expanded slightly from 23.4 acres to 23.6 acres since last month's hearing. There is a drainage ditch which runs eastward through the northern portion of the site. Immediately to the west across Wilcox Road are several homes on lots of an acre or more and to the north across Rings Road is a large undeveloped parcel. The site wraps behind two single-family residencies which front on Rings Road at the eastern side of the site. A 20-foot wide strip from the rear of each is now included in the application. To the south is the "Porter Tract" which was recently rezoned to the R-12, Urban Residential District for multi-family development. The proposed Wilcox-Rings Connector roadway is shown along the south and east property lines of this site on the Proposed Southwest Area Plan, and the current expectation is that this road will continue westward to intersect with Coffman Road Extended, and not curve to the north toward Rings Road, as shown. B. The proposal is to rezone the site from R-1B to PLR, Planned Low Density Residential District. The layout shows 76 single-family lots with 2.27 acres set aside for park purposes. There is one entrance from Rings Road and one from the Wilcox/Rings Connector into the subdivision. The average lot is 70-feet by 120-feet throughout the interior. Wilcox Road is shown as lots of 100 feet in width which will front on the existing road. The gross density of the development is 3.2S dwelling units per acre and the calculated density required under the PLR provisions is 4.3 dwellings per acre. C. There are a number of development issues surrounding this application. This report will explain the circumstances of each issue. Staff's recommendation with respect to each issue will be summarized at the end of the report. DEVELOPMENT ISSUES Stormwater The drainage ditch which runs through the site is being rerouted in the 3D-foot drainage easement shown on the plan. The ditch will essentially be relocated to parallel Rings Road. Residents in the area assert that the existing ditch carries a lot of fast moving water after a storm and has spilled over the intersection of Rings and Wilcox Roads, their yards and the subject site. Although requested, no FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) study has been undertaken to determine the Staff Report Dublin Planning and Zoning Commission February 7, 1991 Page 4 extent of the floodway, flood fringe and applicable flood elevation, along the Cramer Creek drainageway. Dublin requested, last year, that the federal agency conduct the necessary study which is a several-year process for them. The request has not yet been approved, and the extent of the flooding problem is not yet known. This has health, safety, and welfare implications of the highest order, not for just this site certainly, but for the land all along the creekbed. The project engineer will be meeting with City Staff to outline the work done by his firm to address this concern, and a more thorough report on stormwater will be delivered at the meeting. The detention is being provided within easements paralleling Rings Road. The detention design will meet the MORPC Stormwater Manual requirements, but the impact of the water which is simply flowing through the site is not known. Road Network The primary objective of the Southwest Area Plan was to attract single- family development to the Rings Road and Wilcox Road area. The roadway network shown on the plan indicated the extent that Dublin may go in attracting single-family development to that area. The road network is to be re-evaluated with specific development proposals. The most potent issue to the neighbors is whether Wilcox Road will remain a through street or become a cul-de-sac. Staff feels strongly that this decision cannot be made until the arterial system is completed in the area. Staff will make the commitment to pursue the land uses of the Southwest Area Plan and to preserve the residential character insofar as that is possible as the various development decisions are made over time. Again, the most important measure of reducing traffic on residential streets is to build the arterial streets. The extension of Tuttle Crossing Boulevard to Aver Road is the most important link. Coffman Road must also be extended to Shier-Rings Road. Park The applicant, with the consent of the Parks Director, is exploring the desirability of satisfying the parks requirement by donating a developed park. The required park donation, in this case, is 4.65 acres. The developer is proposing to donate 2.27 acres and making some formal improvements to the land. The park plan is being prepared with input from the Parks Director. A small formal park setting is to be developed. The plan and the whole idea of the trade-off has been reviewed favorably by the Parks and Recreation Committee. At this point, Staff supports this proposal. Sanitary Sewer Sanitary sewer lines are not readily available to this site. The applicant has proposed to install a ~ r--~\('+:j system which will divert the sewage permanently to a line in the Tuttle Road area. The City, since the lifting of the sanitary sewer connection ban, is less inclined to grant the diversion. This Cramer sanitary sewer has only been extended as far as Ashland Chemical on the east side of I-270. The developer has offered to pay a share of the cost of extending the Cramer line, but Staff feels it is premature for the City to accept this part of the proposal. First, Staff Report Dublin Planning and Zoning Commission February 7, 1991 Page 5 it must be determined that the diversion will not have an adverse impact. Then, if it has been so demonstrated, the developer must pay a share at least equal to the cost of his section of the sanitary sewer, and provide easements etc. where necessary. At the rezoning stage, Staff supports the engineering and construction of the proper sanitary line in conformance with the overall approved plan for services. It would only be appropriate to entertain an alternative after the above assessment has been completed, most likely at the final plat. Development Standards The applicant has submitted example deed restrictions and a development text for the subdivision. The deed restrictions were formulated with at least some input from the neighbors and carry many of the standard residential restrictions. The development standards include a 25-foot front yard, a 30-foot rear yard, a 6-foot minimum side yard and a combined side yard of 13 feet. The subdivision streets are indicated as 24 feet on the plan and 26 feet in the text and will need approval of the City Engineer. Sidewalks will be required on both sides of all streets, as will street trees. The perimeter streets will need these improvements also. Staff supports the land use and feels the developer has made a significant effort to mold his plan to the desires of the City and the neighbors. Staff believes the stormwater issue is the most critical. The Staff recommendation, along with the applicant's latest materials, will be delivered to you next week. STAFF REPORT ADDENDUM 3.

ME1\10RANDUM TO: Planning Commission City Council FROM: Development Department Staff SUBJECT: Policy Statement Regarding Southwest Quadrant Planning Efforts DATE: January 31, 1991 It has become increasingly clear as Planning Commission and Council have addressed a number of the rezonings and development issues facing the southwest quadrant that the City needs to clearly articulate its policy regarding long-term planning for this area. In that regard, we recommend that the City affIrm as follows: 1. The Southwest Area Master Plan, as adopted by the Dublin City Council dated 1/26/90 and revised 1/29/90, 2/5/90 and 2/8/90, currently reflects and embodies the City's comprehensive plan for this area. Minor modifIcations to the plan have been reviewed and approved as a result of rezonings within this area. However, the plan and the policies contained therein have formed the primary basis for public and private decision making in the southwest quadrant. 2. It is recognized that the Plan has not incorporated all of the critical analyses and background studies needed to substantiate the recommendations contained therein, but rather the Plan embodies the best efforts of the City, the developer, and the residents of the neighborhood to provide a reasonable plan of how the area should and could develop. 3. The City of Dublin has established as a goal for 1991 the update of its comprehensive plan. One major objective of that effort will be to perform all of the comprehensive studies needed, particularly for the newly annexed areas, in order to update Dublin's Community Plan. As it does for all areas of the City, the comprehensive plan provides the guideline, framework and policies which guide both public capital improvement programming decisions as well as private land use development decisions. 4. It is specifIcally not the policy of the City of Dublin that its comprehensive plans be viewed as rigid, confIning documents which restrict the City's ability to respond to changing conditions, new information, or unique development opportunities. It is also understood, however, that major changes to proposed land uses, development objectives, or public facilities within the plan need to be looked at in the context of their overall impact on the surrounding community. As such, the City of Dublin affIrms that when . . it takes action to review or further amend its comprehensive plan it will do so only after i it has fully considered all of the appropriate information provided by staff, residents, and the affected property owners. 5. With specific regard to policy objectives in the southwest quadrant, the City reaffirms that it has as one of its major policy objectives within the City's community plan the preservation and enhancement of the character of the single family neighborhood which currently exists in the area of Wilcox and Rings Roads. The City will continue, as part of that policy objective, to look for ways to secure a means to discourage the funneling of large volumes of thru-traffic into single family residential areas as this is inconsistent with the Plan's objectives. 6. It is further recognized that a system of arterials is proposed in the Community Plan to handle the thru-traffic needs of the southwest area. No actions can be taken to discourage or reroute traffic from Wilcox and Rings Roads areas, however, until such time as additional capital improvements are installed which implement the planned arterial network to serve this area. Most specifically, these deal with realigning Wilcox Road, extending Tuttle Crossing Boulevard to A very Road and providing for the extension of Coffman Road on the north to Tuttle Crossing Boulevard on the south. The timing for these improvements will be determined by a variety of factors, including their relative need as determined by the City's long-term Capital Improvement Program, as well as the development of key properties in this area which would provide for the private implementation of certain of these improvements. EXHIBIT "D" Excerpt from Minutes of Dublin City Council Meeting on March 18, 1991 regarding Ordinance No. 90-90. Ms. Maurer moved to approve the Ordinance as presented with the addition of the easement which has been offered to permit access in and out of the residential development; that the proposed fence be changed to a hedge; that fences be permitted to be built pursuant to the requirements in the plan for the protection of children; that the hedge be broken up by brick pillars. Mr. Sutphen seconded the motion. Ms. Maurer and Mr. Sutphen agreed to add to the motion that the homeowners' association will be responsible for continuing to maintain the entry feature and the hedge along the southern boundary of the site, and that that homeowners' association be properly funded. Mrs. King moved to amend the motion by adding that the deeds be restricted to allow only the types of fencing allowed in Indian Run. Mr. Strip seconded the motion. Mr. Ruma agreed to all of the above conditions.
