SUB0228202 Meek Subdivision (Preliminary Subdivision Review) 4-006722 3761 E Little Cottonwood Lane [Community #30, Granite] Attachments: Staff Report Exhibit A Thomas Irvin introduced this item to the Planning Commission. Robert Meek, 3761 E Little Cottonwood Lane, asked the Planning Commission if he is expected to remove the curb and gutter or just add to the existing sidewalk. Thomas Irvin replied that he would have to add to the sidewalk to increase the width to six feet. Robert Meek asked if he also needs to replace the sidewalk on his driveway. Ryan Kump, Sandy City Engineer, replied that the request on the prelim site plan from Public Works was for a full six foot adjacent sidewalk to be built along the east frontage. That did include taking it out at the driveway and rebuilding it with a new drive approach. He would also need to install an ADA accessible ramp that meets current city standards. Ryan said that the City is not requiring the applicant to remove the curb and gutter and it could remain. Robert Meek said he doesn't understand why he needs to remove or replace the sidewalk. Thomas Irvin spoke about the special exception and the only item in question with the applicant is the sidewalk. It should be replaced as it is in bad shape, not graded correctly, and should match the width of the sidewalk on the north of the property. Daniel Schoenfeld opened this item for public comment. Daniel Schoenfeld closed this item to public comment. Steven Wrigley said he understands the new developer brought the six foot sidewalk to the development. Thomas Irvin said yes. Steve Wrigley said the city's intent is to finish the six foot sidewalk to the end of the block. Thomas Irvin said yes. Steven Wrigley said rather than just adding an additional two feet of concrete the applicant would need to remove it. Thomas Irvin explained the reasons why the sidewalk needs to be replaced, which included, the condition of the concrete, meeting the city standards for drainage and ADA access. Cameron Duncan said this is an opportunity to bring this development into city code.
