PARKLAND DEDICATION
Parkland dedication requirements will apply to the project because of its residential nature. The required amount of
parkland is 2.3-acres. The Greenbelt area shown on the south side of the property (Outlot Z) is shown to be 3.59-acres
in area. The applicant proposes to dedicate this area to the City for parkland. An existing pedestrian underpass was
installed as part of the improvements to NW 10th Street. The intent of the City would be to install a trail through this
greenbelt and connect to the underpass. Further trail extensions will occur to the west and into the parkland located
within Stratford Crossing.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
The subject property is classified as Single Family Residential, Medium Density Residential, and Open Space in the Imagine
Waukee 2040: Comprehensive Plan. The comprehensive plan defines the referenced land use classifications as follows:
• Single Family Residential is defined as traditional forms of single-family housing with lot sizes ranging from
8,000 square feet to 0.50-acres in area with an average density of 2 to 4 units per acre.
• Medium Density Residential is defined as a variety of attached side-by-side townhome and row home
products with densities ranging from 4 to 12 units per acre.
• Open Space is defined as areas intended for park development or open space conservation.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
All proposed lots meet the minimum requirements of the Zoning Ordinance and Planned Development, the final plat is
in general conformance with the Subdivision Ordinance, and the proposed land use of the property is consistent with
the Comprehensive Plan. Staff recommends approval of the final plat for Alder Point Plat 1 subject to remaining staff
comments, review of the legal documents, and completion of public improvements.
