B, DP O1-79 -- STAFF ANALYSIS l. Golf course and dwelling unit arranganent ha.s suffered because too much is trying to be achieved on the site: A. Golf course 1. 110 acres minimiAn necessary for single fairway 18-hole course (180 to provide a safe course) Open �pace available � 106 acres (for Par 70 course). 2. Single fairways, while allowing the max3miun unit fronta.ge, present the greatest danger from golf balls. Minimurn width of landing area should be 100 yards (landing area is from 154-200 yards) from tee. - Double fairways require snaller sa.fety margin for sliced ba,lls (150 yards total) curve building line saves even more. - By use of well designed doglegs in a single fairwa.y design, adjacent units and streets can curve (or even undulate if a lake is used). - Club house paxking - 91 spaces shown; 90 required for golf course, 18 for tennis courts, 1 per tee driving range, plus required spaces for any other use in clubhouse. B. Residential Design 1. PR, zone requires 50°'0 open space, intending it to be used to enhance unit arrange�nent -- with some portion of tha.t area collected in larger corrrrbn open space uses -- almost all of the PR open space is devoted to golf course in this proposal. 2. Preponderance of units are laid out in long continuous (straight) segments. - Minitrnun (or less) distance sepaxation between buildings (20' ) - nothing ha.s been done to rectify this in the design. 3. Street scene involves continuous gaxage doors and driveways - Driveways not generally accepted. as sa.tisfying 0.5 guest space requiranent. - Minimum private street width for paxking on one side is 32' ; 40' for both sides; also provision for guest ba,ys desirable or other parallel ba.y treatment. 4. Access to units from ma.jor project entrance is not desirable - should be eliminated. 5. Swimning pool areas generally only relate to a few adjacent units (exposure and orientation ha.s not been maximized). 6. Other miscellaneous itans - a. Additional access b. Saving Tamarisk trees along west. C. Zoning considerations 1. Portion of project area in O.S. zone (Whitewa,ter Ch�nnel). Need accurate survey of property, because by scaling from zoning map to site plan, it would appeax the southern row of units fall into O.S. zone. � _
