drainage be directed back onto the lot and the retainage be
moved out of the public right-of-way. She stated that the
site is large but steeply sloped. There are two access to
the lot, but both are steeply sloped. The proposed access is
from the lower road. She stated that the retainage is about
30 feet high. She stated that other siting alternatives were
discussed at the previous meeting, but it was determined that
the location was acceptable as proposed if the retainage were
properly designed.
In regards to the visual appearance, the retainage and
driveway will have a significant impact on the visual
appearance. Revegetation of cut and fill areas are proposed
to be native grasses and sage. New landscaping consists of
21 dicidous trees, aspen and birch, no low landscaping
elements are proposed. Fritzlen stated that it is suggested
that plant material such as tall shrubs and native ground
cover more sutied to this microclimate be considered in 'light
of the difficulties that will be encountered with irrigation.

accomplish is a bank with rough, large boulders, like an
outcropping that will look natural, with grasses and natural
vegetation. He stated they are not trying to do too much
landscaping in that area.

hope that by using the gravel it will minimize the runoff off

retainage.

improvement, this proposal is similar, but not identical to
the duplex approved and now under construction on Lot 12,
Filing 1. She stated that approval of exterior colors should
be based on dist;nguishing this duplex from its Similar
neighbor as well as other applicable design criteria.
Previously approved colors were blue and grey and off white
stucco.
Fritzlen stated that there does not appear to be any unusual
or significant impacts to adjacent properties.
She stated that the site is gently sloped and easily
accomodates the proposed improvements. Landscape plan is
well developed and serves to screen parking areas and side
elevations from adjacent properties. She stated that if the
approval for Lot 7, Filing 1, remains in place there is a
potential that there would be two identical buildings within
sight of each other.
Staff recommendation is approval conditioned by the
following: 1. Approval of material samples as presented;
2. Prior to issuance of the building permit, revised plans
indicating rear decks outside of the applicable setback be
submitted.
Ton; Seibert stated that they are prepared to totally abandon
the use of this plan on Lot 7. The difference between Lot 7
and Lot 2 is that Lot 7 has a significant slope all the way
down to the river, whereas Lot 2 is virtually flat until it
gets to the top of the bank and then drops at a very steep
angle to the river. The proposed house is all on the flat
portion of the lot. He stated that they have made several
changes since the plans were submitted. They have changed
the site plan slightly to rotate the house and drop back
about a foot and a half so that neither deck is encroaching.
They have also totally eliminated the basement.
The differences and similarities between Lot 12 and Lot 2
were discussed.
Discussion followed on the landscaping plan.
Hunn questioned the parking and manuevering space. Fritzlen
stated that the area is sufficient.
