• that there does not seem to be enough detail related to how the access will be <br />constructed in terms of actual width, need for retaining walls, or other potential <br />constraints; <br />• that not enough alternatives to the existing points of access have been <br />researched that may be more preferable; <br />• that the existing topography is not compatible with the proposed points of <br />connection; <br />• that there is an issue of liability should there be an exodus from the Oak Grove <br />site during an emergency which may expose residents owning property to the <br />middle of Grey Eagle Court; <br />• that the location is inappropriate when looking at potential fire patterns and <br />prevailing wind shifts that make the Grey Eagle access inadvisable; <br />• that there is no way to restrict access from the Oak Grove site to the Grey Eagle <br />development from individuals enjoying the open space area; <br />• that fencing and gates have not been clearly defined; <br />• that there is no definition that allows egress from the site, and that at the very <br />least, emergency vehicles should only be allowed to enter Oak Grove from Grey <br />Eagle, but that in the event of an emergency, no one should be able to exit the <br />site at that location; and, <br />• that the location of the easement is in conflict with the location of the proposed <br />Allen Roberts residence in the Grey Eagle Estates development. <br />Staff has met with both neighborhoods independently to research these concerns and <br />come back with potential solutions. In an effort to allay fears that numerous vehicles <br />would be accessing either point, staff recommends the following: <br />• The public access extending from Benedict Court would be connected to the cul- <br />de-sac by Lot 51 to the south of the project. This access will require the <br />construction of a permanent bridge. This access would be considered a fire road <br />and considered to be a secondary point of ingress and egress for the purposes of <br />providing access out of the site for people who might be enjoying the south half <br />of the open space area. Figure 7 on the following page shows this proposal. <br />PUD-33 Page 40 of 59 June 13, 2007 <br />
