The creek crossing, with bridge abutments on either side of the creek channel, would have either non-existent wetland impact, or only several square feet of wetland impact from the abutment Ask locations. This impact pales in comparison to the wetland impact of the proposed lot layout, which W-Jacks up lots over the creek channel for most of its length, literally relocating the creek channel for 243 feet, with hundreds of lineal feet of retaining walls backed up to, and over the former creek bed, often with several steps up. (Attachment 5. Fig. 4.3-1A for DEIR and Attachment 4 site design). The big cost to the developer from the Sunset Creek Lane connection would be possible loss of one lot from the existing design. But, with a 33 acres development envelope, and average lot size over 14,000 sq. ft., the City could easily work with the developer to retain the 50 lot project size. Conclusion The City needs to keep its promises, and abide by its plans, by approving the Lund Ranch II project with the Sunset Creek Lane road connection.
