LOT NO. 8

A triangular property (Lot 8) is located at the center of the proposed
development. The applicants have not been able to reach an agreement with the
proprietor of this small triangular property, however, the design has made
provisions for its future development.
The Engineering Department comments as follows:
1. Curb and gutter, minor road widening, sidewalk, and street lighting wiil
= be required along the frontage of the property, including the frontage
ob of the pie shaped lot at the bend in the road which is not included in .
the development. y | ie

re a Ze Sanitary sewer needs to be extended on Pitt River Road. Elevations of

: | the main may restrict the feasible length of the extension, and on site
elevations will have to be closely checked to ensure feasibility of a
gravity connection. An alternate route across private property to the
end of Lobb Avenue may be feasible.

3. Storm sewer exists on Pitt River Road. A short extension of this main a
will be required to accommodate the road widening. on

4. Watermain will have to be extended across the frontage of the
development including that of the above mentioned pie shaped lot. The
eS proposed main to be constructed by Beaconcare across the site may have
7 to be relocated to accommodate the building layout shown.

5. Access to the site is a concern, especially since they have chosen to
isolate three groupings of townhouses with no interconnecting access
between the clusters. This results in three separate accesses to Pitt
River Road, two of which are very close to the curve and may have sight Se
distance problems. Moreover, when the Pitt River Road / Reeve Street .
speed curve is constructed in the future, the access patterns will be —
affected. I would strongly suggest that the developer be required to - ‘ ,
hire a traffic consultant to carry out a traffic study to recommended :
access configurations which will function now and in the future, bearing
in mind the traffic volumes on Pitt River Road and the potential
conflicts, sight distance problems, etc.

6. The pie shaped lot being left out of the development cannot be allowed
to develop for anything other than single family use with a direct
access to Pitt River Road given the poor location of any driveway along
its frontage. Provisions should therefore be made to allow for access

ee to this lot across the development under consideration to facilitate

eee future development of the pie shaped lot.
