<br />3. ROAD VARIANCE <br /> <br />As shown on the Sheet GR-01 of Exhibit C, "Road A" and "Road C" include portions of the <br />roadway that are 10-12% grade. According to KCC 12.04.080 Table 4-4, the Maximum <br />Grade allowed for private roads on a project this size is 10%. The variance is requested for <br />the increased road grading and is attached as Appendix B, with the fees paid to Kittitas <br />County upon the submittal of this FDP. <br /> <br />4. TRANSPORTATION <br /> <br />A Traffic Impact Assessment (TIA) was originally conducted in 2006 for the approved PUD <br />and preliminary plat, depicting 310 single family lots. That report estimated the weekday <br />daily trips were to be 1,510, with 142 PM Peak Hour trips. <br /> <br />An updated TIA was prepared by TENw on September 1, 2017 for the proposed <br />development (Appendix C), including 104 single-family homes, 40 townhomes, a 40-unit <br />boutique hotel, a winery and additional community amenities. The proposed project is <br />estimated to generate 1,025 Weekday Daily trips and 95 PM Peak Hour trips. The <br />proposed development has a significantly lower traffic impact than the previously <br />approved development plan. <br /> <br />The Conceptual Site Plan (Exhibit C) proposes private roads throughout the PUD. There <br />are 89 proposed off-street parking spaces available throughout the site at designated <br />common areas. The type of material to be used for the private roads and parking spaces <br />is asphalt with an estimated cost of $50 per square yard. <br /> <br />5. UTILITIES <br /> <br />A Large Onsite Sewage System (LOSS) Pre-Design report was submitted to the State <br />Department of Health. The report and correspondence with the Office of Shellfish & Water <br />Protection is included as Appendix D. <br /> <br />Water will be provided with an onsite well. Water right documentation is provided as <br />Appendix E, to include: Water Budget, Water Right Report (dated 2009) and a Water Right <br />Extension (dated 2016). <br /> <br />A Class A Water System certification from the Department of Ecology is in process. PLSA is <br />the consultant tasked with acquiring a Group A Water System approval. Their letter is <br />included in Appendix F, along with a Hydrogeologic Evaluation Report (2008). <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Index #2
