Based on the feedback received at the Planning Commission Work Session and from staff after the Work Session, Ponderosa revised the development proposal as follows: 1. The number of proposed homes was reduced from 37 to 36. 2. Lot 37 was removed as an option for a clubhouse and is proposed as a single-family home facing Valley Trails Drive. 3. A private Ponderosa HOA clubhouse facility with a 10-stall parking lot is proposed on Lot 11. Ponderosa is proposing to allow Valley Trails residents to use the clubhouse a maximum of 12 times annually. Staff notes that Sheet B.1.1 of Exhibit B is a conceptual clubhouse floor plan that shows an internally accessible private restroom and a capacity of 50-60 people. 4. Parcel C, located east of Lot 11, will be dedicated to the City as public parkland. 5. House Plan 3 has been redesigned and the square-footage was reduced from 3,616 square feet to 3,385 square feet to include a teen/office room option. The rear corner of the house model has been recessed and the size of the model, including the garage, has decreased approximately 231 square feet, overall. 6. The bio-retention area on Street B (fronting Lots 4 and 5) was adjusted in length in order to eliminate the private on-lot bio-retention previously proposed on Lots 4 and 16. All stormwater treatment for the development will now occur on common parcels. 7. Minor lot reconfigurations and plotting changes were made to allow for larger setbacks and reduced Floor Area Ratios (FARs) in order to provide a variety of styles throughout the development; and 8. A freestanding public restroom within Valley Trails Park will be constructed by Ponderosa or Ponderosa will contribute a total of$300,000 for Park improvements.
