Commercial.use is indicated as an appropriate use on the long range land use map. The property is currently served by the full array of. municipal.services including streets. Mr, and. Mrs. Palmer have submitted a request to rezone property at 1505 West 1st Street from C-1. to C-2. The property is currently occupied by Rogers Auto Service Gas Station. The Palmers wish to convert the existing gas station to an auto sales/repair business at the site. The property is located in a commercial district with numerous businesses. in the immediate vicini- ty. A C-2 zoning district lies immediately west of the property. The. proposed use will not dif- fer substantially from the current use on the site or other uses in the neighborhood.. The Schematic. Land. use Map indicates that commercial uses are appropriate for this area. the site is adequately served by all the normal municipal services. The Zoning ordinance requires that a six foot high screen (i.e.: fence, wall or plant material) be installed to screen commercial parking areas from abutting residential properties. Since an R-2 zoning district lies immediately to the north rezoning approval should stipulate: that minimum screening requirements be met by the property owners. 1 • C7 • Staf f Recommendation: The Department of. Developmental. Services recom- mends that the rezoning request be approved with the following stipulation: a. That a six foot tall screen be installed between the subject property and abutting residential properties. 2 C A "P. *'1l'-op 0DD t 4 z HORIZON D Z O C � o 4 'F 4 O CA s rrCwlT d On Fes• �• %j t D R.

Partners Ltd.., Des Moines, Iowa Location: The proposed College Square Elderly Village is located south of College Square Mall on. Maplewood. Drive. The proposed site is located immediately east of the College Square Apartment Complex at 923 Maplewood Drive. Zoning: R-P, Planned Residential., was. originally approved for the site in 1971. The original approved_ site plan indicated 348 dwelling units on 17.94.acres, or a density of 19.4 units per acre. The R-P zoning district requires site plan review of all proposed major improvements within the district. Submitted site plans must be reviewed and approved by the Planning and Zoning Commis- sion and by the City Council... Floodplain: The subject property lies outside of the designat- ed floodplain. Municipal Services: The property has ready access to sanitary sewer., water, and other normal utilities. The owners will be responsible for any relocation/ extension costs of existing utility lines such as water and. gas. The City Engineer has reported that in 1.973 exist- ing sanitary sewer was deemed adequate for the proposed development of College Square Apartments based upon the approved populationdensity of. 19.4 units per acre. However, since that. time the integrity of the: sanitary sewer lines in the area, has been reduced by inflow and infiltration (I&I) problems During heavy rainfall the sani- tary sewer line is flushed with water which over- loads the local system.. The City Engineer recom- mends that the I&I problem be addressed prior to development on the site. The storm sewer system, which was upgraded in 1975, is adequate to accommodate the proposed development.. On site storm water detention, plans will be submitted at thetime of construction. 7 • • • Staf f Analysis: The submitted site plan proposes a multi -family development consisting of sixty (60) one bedroom apartments in eight separate buildings. A commu- nity building measuring 1400 sq.ft. is also pro- vided on the first floor of one multi. -family unit. The proposed development is designed. with the intent of providing affordable housing for elderly persons. The College Square Corporation (Jim urban, Presi- dent) also manages the existing College Square apartments. which.contains 80 housing units prima- rily occupied by subsidized elderly tenants.. An existing "waiting list" of over 100 eligible tenants seems to justify the proposed addition. The housing is subsidized by the Federal. Section 8 Housing Program and the Iowa Finance Authori- ty. The "targeted" tenants will be elderly. However, non -elderly tenants will be considered if they meet income guidelines for receiving subsidized housing. The proposed site plan takes precedence over a similar plan submitted. and approved in May" 1990. At that time 1.28 multi -family units were proposed: on 7 acres at a density of 18.29- units. per acre. That plan did not materialize. The submitted_ site plan meets minimum zoning requirements pertaining to setbacks. However, the number of parking stalls provided (92) does not meet the minimum requirement of 97 stalls.. The zoning ordinance. requires. 1..5. parking spaces for each unit. of housing for elderly or handi- capped., and one. (1 ) parking stall for every 200 s . f . of gross floor area within the community center. The 60 dwelling units require 90 parking stalls, while the community center would. require an additional 7 stalls. The total area of the site measures. 7 acres. 8.85 percent of that area.willbe built with a density of 8.55 units/acre.. Thisdensity level is well below the original. approved density of 19.6 units/acre-which was. approved. in 1973. The property is readily accessible .to the full array of municipal services.. The developer will. be responsible for making arrangements for exten- sion of water and gas service. W. • • • While the designed capacity of sanitary sewer lines in the area is adequate to accommodate new construction, a complicating factor threatens to limit development at this time. Engineering studies have revealed that sanitary sewer lines in the vicinity of the development aresubj ec.t. to occasional severe inflow and infiltration (I&I) problems during heavy rainfall events.. During heavy rainfall the existing sewer lines quickly exceed flow capacity with back-up and sewage spillage resulting. The City Engineer recommends. that this problem be mitigated prior to permit- ting development. Staff Recommendation.; The.Depa.rtment of. Developmental. Services recom- mends that the submitted.site.plan for the Col- lege Square Elderly Villagebe approved subject to the following stipulation: A. The developer make arrangements. to mitigate the inflow and infiltration problem into the sanitary sewer system. subject to the review and approval of the City Engineer. B. The developer provide parking stalls to meet guidelines. 9 minimum. required - zoning ordinance uo'o`r'cJ �ve.a• lea4- be- t Ip r�.

UATipN SURVFTY - 'ARCHITECTS MICHAEL "� ' of ENGINEERS Request.. Utility Easement Vacation, West Ten (10) Feet of. a Thirty (30) Foot Easement Petitioner: James E. Walsh, 919 Oak Park Blvd-, Lot 58 Royal Oaks Estate Nature of Request.. Lot 58 is bordered by easements on three sides. A thirty (30) foot sanitary sewer. easement extends along the east property line. Mr. Walsh is requesting to vacate the west ten (10) feet of the easement. Comments: Cedar Falls utilities personnel along with. cable and telephone personnel have no objection to the vacation request. City Engineering Division person- nel have located the sewer line within the easement and have determined that the west seven ( 7 ) feet of the easement can be vacated.. The Department of. Public Works recommends that no portionof the thirty ( 3 g ) foot easement be vacated. Regular and special, maintenance of the sewer" line will require full utilization of the thirty (30) foot easement area.. Staff Analysis. Mr..James Walsh, owner of proper- ty at 919 Oak Park Blvd., Lot 58, Royal Oaks Estates, has requested to vacate the west ten (10) feet of a thirty (30) foot sanitary sewer easement that, lies along the east property line.. The ease- ment does contain a sewer lime, thus at least a portion. of the easement is needed for continued access to the line. No other utilities are located in the easement, thus there are few interested parties in the status of the easement. The City Engi- neering Division has identified the location of the sewer line and has recommended that the west seven ( 7 ) feet of the easement �J Staff Recommendation: • • can safely be vacated. The remain- ing twenty-three (23) feet of the easement is necessary for the continued maintenance of the sewer line. The Department of Public Works., however, maintains that due to the variable depth of the sewer line the full thirty (30) foot easement is necessary for contin- ued maintenance of the line. The Department of Developmental Services concurs with the Depart- ment of. Public Works, in that no portion of the thirty (30) foot utility easement shall. be .vacated on Lot 58, Royal Oaks Estate.

Walsh UL July, S 1991 . . ti V t:�;�;.� City of ' Cedar Falls Mr. -Jim Kreig City Hall Cedar Falls, Iowa 60613 Re: 919 Oak- Park Blvd. Dear Jim: I thought you .wou-ld be the one to start with on ,this As you , m.ay recall _ the City has a. 30 foot . easement.,on" .the East .side of my.'lot.' (A.'copy 'of the plat from my Abstract is enclosed for ,. your reference.,) Now' that the lift station is gone" I wonder if it would . be possible for . the City to �rel_eas:e _ ib,` ;feet,-:.or,.s.o) of that , easement as it %goes by ' the -house?, - The reason why I need .' some of it .back is that I would .like to .add a_room addition on -thee East ..side- .of. my house, ( coming off the living- room) and ' i .don-' t think 'it would be feasible 'to do it 'with the -present restriction (due to the easement). The sewer pipe (as f ar as I. can. tell), is at 1-east another. 10 feet over and it would seem there would,still be more than adequate , room 'lor any-work-.that,'might be'needed in the future. with regard to. it . (I . think the original 30 foot width .was,,to accommodate a potential road to get back to'the'`lift s_tation.) At any "rate, .if this is something that is possible let me know. If .not, I'll.. go .to plan B. Thanks. V ruly yours, James,E: Walsh, Jr. 19 oak Park Blvd,,'' Cedar -Falls,' Iowa -50613 (H). - 277-7019 (W) 234-5701 • CITY OF CEDAR FALLS,IOWA DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WORKS OFFICE MEMORANDUM DATE To: Ma-rFrom Subject: _ Park Blvd. Lot 58, Royal Oaks Estates The subject easement is occupied by an eight (8) inch sanitary sewer that varies in depth from 15' 4" at the south end (Manhole in Oak Park Blvd. parking) to 6' 4" at the north end (manhole at the site of the former lift station). The easement is thirty (30) feet wide with the sanitary sewer lying approximately in the center of the easement or approximately fifteen (15) feet of easement on either side of the sewer. Maintenance of the sewer will require that access to the north manhole be available to cleaning, televising and repair equipment. Should excavating to the sewer be necessary the entire easement area will be required for equipment and storage of excavated material. At an average depth of nearly twelve (12) feet exposure of the sanitary sewer will require the entire thirty (30) feet of easement -for excavation. At fifteen (15) feet plus, exposure at the South end will be extremely difficult to accomplish on the existing easement. The existing thirty (30) feet is hardly enough to provide proper maintenance t❑ the sanitary sewer line. Anything less would make it virtually impossible to provide adequate maintenance. It is recommended by the Public works Department that the request for vacation of a portion of the easement be denied. cc C.
