Public Hearing Opened Mayor Burch opened the Public Hearing at 7:45 that was continued from the
August 3'~ meeting to consider amending a revised grading plan for the Gate
Woods Subdivision and to revise Ordinance 2004-09.
Tom Woods, T.E. Tom Woods, T.E. Woods Construction, Inc. and Paul Miller, Project Manager
Woods Const. George Butler and Associates (GBA) stated there was a processing fee of
$4,200 for a letter of the National Flood Insurance Rate Map revision. This
would be a map revision to the stream. The cost is because the floodway and
floodplain has been changed by the city and the previous developer. T.E.
Woods Construction has paid this fee.
Mr. Woods said the walkway will be reconnected and the maintenance, i.e.
mowing and landscaping will be the responsibility of the Homeowners
Association.
Brent Miles Brent Miles, Planning and Zoning Coordinator read the staff analysis
reads staff analysis report to the Board of Aldermen and the report is made a part of these
report to the board minutes:
The applicant, T.E. Woods Construction, has made a request to revise the
approved Grading Plan currently in place in the Final Development Plan for the
Gatewoods Planned Development and to consider a grading permit consistent
with the proposed revised Grading Plan.
The first request is for a revision to the approved Grading Plan currently in place
in the Final Development Plan, adopted by Ordinance 2002-68, for the
Gatewoods Planned Development. As mentioned, the Gatewoods Planned
Development currently has a Final Development Plan in place due to it being
zoned Planned Development. This Final Development Plan incorporates
individual plans crucial for the implementation of the Final Development Plan.
These individual plans consist of a grading plan, a landscape plan, a sewer plan,
etc... To revise any of these individual plans, the Final Development Plan must
in turn be revised. This revision requires a public hearing, satisfying proper
notification, which City staff has completed.
The applicant is requesting that the Grading Plan be revised due to the applicant
wanting to eliminate the cuaent "Water Feature" on site. Staff believes that
elimination of the "Water Feature" accomplishes several recommended
improvements to the development.
- The "Water Feature" could pose as a possible safety concern due to the
lack of proper safety precautions such as railing.
- The "Water Feature" is approximately five hundred (500) feet long, one
hundred fifty (150) feet wide, and six (6) feet deep. At this depth,. the
water feature is unable to support fish and, without added circulation
and aeration, will quickly be covered with algae.
Mies. 8/17/04 2
- The "Water Feature" depth is approximately six (6) feet deep. This
shallow depth will quickly fill with sediment and will require more
frequent dredging..
- The "Water Feature" maintenance could become a possible concern in
the future when it is the duty of the Gatewoods Homeowner's
Association's to maintain the appearance and upkeep.
The Planning & Zoning Commission recommended approval Apri18, 2004, and
the Board of Aldermen made final approval on Apri120, 2004 to officially
acknowledge that a Concurrence Form for Letter of Map Revision (CONK) to
officially revise the current National Flood Insurance Rate Map (NFIP) map for
this development was to be submitted to FEMA for review. To accomplish the
goal of eliminating the 100-year floodphun designation on the southwestern lots
of the subdivision, this "Water Feature" should be removed. This will make
development of these lots less time consuming for the applicant and for the
floodphun regulatory agencies.
To accomplish the elimination of this water feature, City staff required a
detailed grading plan indicating elevations, limits of 100-year floodplain, storm
drainage study, and an erosion & sediment control plan.
under review by FEMA.
Request for revising_Ordinance 2004-09
The second request is to consider revision Ordinance 2004-09 regarding Section
10 of Ordinance 2002-68, which sets forth the designs, specifications, and floor
plans approved by ordinance.
On January 8, 2004, the Planning & Zoning Commission held a public hearing
regarding amending Ordinance 2002-68 and was given a copy of the proposed
amended ordinance, and with that was a presentation of the house plans. Eight
(8) of these ten (10) were recommended for approval to the Board of Aldermen.
These eight plans lrnown as Exhibit A, are "T'he Magnolia", "The Evergreen",
"T'he Sycamore", "T'he Cypress", "The Dogwood", "T'he Sierra", "T'he
Cottonwood", and "The Pinehurst". The two plans that were not recommended
were "T'he Oakmont", and "T'he Briarwood".
The applicant is requesting that two additional plans be considered. Staff
believes that the Commission should consider this request for several reasons.
• The applicant has eight (8) plans approved already. Two (2) additional
plans would add even more diversity in the development. Staff
believes this in one of the goals that the Planning & Zoning
Commission and the Board of Aldermen have regarding residential
development.
• The two (2) additional plans submitted are "'The Lexington" and "The
Briarcliff'.
• "T'he Lexington" is a two-story, one thousand eight hundred fifty-
four (1854) square foot home consisting of one thousand (1000)
square feet on the ground floor and eight hundred fifty-four (854)
square feet on the upper floor.
• "The Briarcliff' was submitted for review previously. At the time
of review, staff did not believe that this plan met the minimum
requirements for square footage for "Ground Floor Area". Further
investigation into this request has been completed, and staff's
interpretation of "Ground Floor Area" requirement for one
thousand square feet (1,000) has been satisfied.
Mins. 8/17/04 3
- The definition of "Ground Floor Area" from Riverside
Municipal Code states "The lot area covered by a building
measured from the exterior faces of exterior walls. The
"Ground Floor Area" for this proposed plan would be one
thousand eighty (1,080) square feet, meeting the minimum
requirement of one thousand (1,000) square feet.
• The applicant has obtained four (4) building permits for four (4)
different house plans already. The four (4) permits that have been
issued are for the "The Evergreen", "T'he Sierra", "T'he Sycamore",
and "The Pinehurst".
Request for Street Name Chanee
The applicant has requested changing the street names currently approved for
the Gatewoods Subdivision.
- The street name that has been approved for the western
north/south street is "NW West Gatewoods Road". The
applicant has requested that the street name be changed to
"NW Woodside Drive".
- The street name that has been approved for the eastern
north/south street is "NW East Gatewoods Road". The
applicant has requested that the street name be changed to
"NW Flintridge Drive".
- The street name that has been approved for the cul-de-sac in
the development is "NW 52°d Street Circle". The applicant
has requested that the street name be changed to "NW
Woodside Gt.".
The staff believes that these changes would be beneficial for several reasons.
That "NW West Gatewoods Road" and "NW East Gatewoods Road" could be
confusing for services and mail. Staff also believes that the cul-de-sac would be
more adequately addressed as "NW Woodside Ct." as opposed to "NW 52°d
Street Circle".
The staff recommends approval contingent upon recommendations made
regarding grading plans and contingent upon the LOMR approval from FEMA.
The staff recommends approval of all contingent upon the LOMR approval from
FEMA.
Public Hearing As there were no other comments, Mayor Burch closed the Public Hearing at
Closed 8:10 p.m.

City Engineer comments John said the contractor on NW Valley Ln. and W. Platte Rd. cleaned
out the drainage areas and opened the drains. NW Valley Lane could be
open in a couple of weeks, depending on the weather.
Frank Weatherford Frank Weatherford, TranSyatems spoke of the I-635 Interchange funding
i.e. funds coming from various funding sources. MoDot is to set aside funds to
match and is typically 50/50 for Route 9. The city is asking for 50% of the
construction cost fiom MoDot of $3,000,000.
Mies. 8/17/04 5
Frank talked about the Horizons development, Route 9 and the funding.
The application will tie approved for the $3,000,000. and a state and city
agreement will be put together. Frank said it will be "give and take" with
MoDot. MoDot was told we would be looking for other sources of funding for
other projects. MoDot will obtain all the easements, but the city will pay for the
easements.
Frank would like to know from the city if the city wants to build the project,
West Platte) as designed or additional work to be done to make the project look
better.
Frank mentioned the inlets on NW Valley Lane to raise the inlets on the west
side they don't get buried. There are two sanitary manholes and a field inlet. It
would take 600 cubic yazds of dirt to be placed in the azea to raise the inlets. On
the east side it would take 3,600 cubic yards of dirt (estimated) for an estimated
total of 4,200 cubic yazds of dirt. There are two structures, the Corps of
Engineers Junction Box and the field inlet. The cost for the dirt and additional
construction work is approximately $41,500 plus five structures at an
approximate cost of $50,000. The change to the original idea was believed to be
Mr. Garney's. The design to adjust the elevation of the structures and the Corps
of Engineers to review the plans plus Patti Banks 8c Associates to do the grading
and a subcontractor to be brought in by TranSystems costs about $8,724 and the
total approximate cost is $58,724.
It was the consensus of the board to finish the project as it was designed, then if
the board wants changes, they can do so.
Frank said Brent attended the Project Manager's Class at TranSystems recently
and will attend another session soon.

confusing for services and mail. Staff also believes that the cul-de-sac would be
more adequately addressed as "NW Woodside Ct " as opposed to "NW 52°d
Street Circle".
The staff recommends approval contingent upon recommendations made
regarding grading plans and contingent upon the LOMB approval from FEMA.

City Engineer comments John said the contractor on NW Valley Ln. and W. Platte Rd. cleaned
out the drainage azeas and opened the drains. NW Valley Lane could be
open in a couple of weeks, depending on the weather.
Frank Weatherford Frank Weatherford, TranSystems spoke of the I-635 Interchange funding
i.e. funds coming from various funding sources. MoDot is to set aside funds to
match and is typically 50/50 for Route 9. The city is asking for 50% of the
construction cost from MoDot of $3,000,000.
Mins. 8/17/04 5
Frank talked about the Horizons development, Route 9 and the funding.
The application will be approved for the $3,000,000. and a state and city
agreement will be put together. Frank said it will be "give and take" with
MoDot. MoDot was told we would be looking for other sources of funding for
other projects. MoDot will obtain all the easements, but the city will pay for the
easements.
Frank would like to know from the city if the city wants to build the project,
West Platte) as designed or additional work to be done to make the project look
better.
Frank mentioned the inlets on NW Valley Lane to raise the inlets on the west
side they don't get buried. There are two sanitary manholes and a field inlet. It
would take 600 cubic yards of dirt to be placed in the area to raise the inlets. On
the east side it would take 3,600 cubic yards of dirt (estimated) for an estimated
total of 4,200 cubic yards of dirt. There are two structures, the Corps of
Engineers Junction Box and the field inlet. The cost for the dirt and additional
construction work is approximately $41,500 plus five structures at an
approximate cost of $50,000. The change to the original idea was believed to be
Mr. Garney's. The design to adjust the elevation of the structures and the Corps
of Engineers to review the plans plus Patti Banks & Associates to do the grading
and a subcontractor to be brought in by TranSystems costs about $8,724 and the
total approximate cost is $58,724.
It was the consensus of the board to finish the project as it was designed, then if
the board wants changes, they can do so.
Frank said Brent attended the Project Manager's Class at TranSystems recently
and will attend another session soon.
