Barefoot Lakes Filinq 7 Preliminary Plat - Plan Analysis
The subject property is located on the southwest corner of Birch Street (WCR 11) and
Ronald Reagan Blvd. It includes the southwest quarter of section 25, township 3 north,
range 68 west of the 6th principal meridian. The Site area is 18.3+ acres and is vacant
land. The proposed preliminary plat includes 111 lots of single-family detached and single-
family attached townhomes. Public access for the proposed project will be the extension
of Bluestem Lane to the west of Barefoot Lakes Parkway and the extension of Kindred
Circle.
The gross density of the proposed subdivision is 6.06 dwelling units/acre in accordance
with the Barefoot Lakes ODP PUD. The Barefoot Lakes PUD allows for a total of 5,131
dwelling units. Approximately 891 dwelling units have been built; hence, the 111 proposed
with Filing 7D are still well within the allowed number of dwelling units. Lot sizes range
from 1,530 square feet to 6,729 square feet, for an average of 4,129 square feet. The
proposed density will be compatible with adjacent developments by having open space,
and the surrounding residential development to the north, south, and east will be Barefoot
Lakes with similar residential neighborhoods. The Town of Mead zoning to the west also
allows similar residential development.
Parks and open space are generally located throughout the site. A trail network is
proposed that will eventually provide access from all areas of the site to the park areas
and access to the pedestrian underpass to cross under Ronald Reagan Blvd. into Barefoot
Lakes Filing 6 and ultimately to the trail system around the lakes.
Open Space is provided in accordance with the FDC and the PUD. This filing proposes
approximately 2.33 acres of open space meeting FDC standards and .519 acres of parks.
The total open space and parks for Barefoot Lakes will include the filings already built
south of Ronald Reagan Blvd. and those provided in future filings.
The developer will extend Public infrastructure and utilities into the property at the time of
the development.

Staff Report
APPROVAL CRITERIA AND STAFF ANALYSIS
Preliminary Plat Approval Criteria and Staff Analysis:
The Preliminary Plat application for Barefoot Lakes Filing 7D was reviewed for compliance
with the Approval Criteria from Section 16.7.6.0 of the FDC. The staff makes the following
findings:
A. The subdivision is generally consistent with the Town's Comprehensive
Master Plan.
Staff Response: The proposed preliminary plat is generally consistent with the
MU (Mixed Use) land use designation identified in the Town's Master Plan. The
Town of Firestone is also working to replace the 2013 Comprehensive Master
Plan. The applicant and consultants have worked closely with the Town to
ensure the project meets the Town's vision for the new Comprehensive Master
Plan as it is being developed, and also to ensure the project remains in
conformance with the approved Barefoot Lakes Outline Development Plan,
which will be amended during the Final Plat process.
B. The subdivision is generally consistent with and implements the intent of
the specific zoning district in which it is located.
Staff Response: The proposed preliminary plat is consistent with the purpose
and intent of the R-A, R-B, R-C, RC, OS, and NC zone districts as outlined in the
FDC and ODP.
C. The general layout of lots, streets, driveways, utilities, drainage facilities,
and other services within the proposed subdivision is designed to meet
the Town's standards related to health and safety in a way that minimizes
the amount of land disturbance, maximizes the amount of open space in
the development, preserves existing trees/vegetation and riparian areas,
protects critical wildlife habitat, and otherwise accomplishes the purposes
and intent of this FDC.
Staff Response: The general layout of the proposed preliminary plat is consistent
with the applicable development and design standards set forth in the FDC and
the Town of Firestone Design Standards and Construction Specifications for
Public Improvements.
The project proposes to offer two different styles of residential units: single-family
attached townhomes and single-family detached units across various price
points. The streets have been designed in a traffic -conscious way to create easy
vehicular and pedestrian access to the rest of Barefoot Lakes and through the
intended site, which is centered around the main pocket park.
Drainage facilities have been designed to conform to all Town of Firestone
Standards and Criteria, State Statutes, and previous and surrounding Master
Drainage Studies. More specifically, drainage for the site will be directed to
drainage facilities currently being constructed with Filing 7A and into existing
drainage pipe networks built within the Ronald Reagan District Road
Construction Documents.
Waterlines will be looped throughout the Site, connecting to the Kindred Circle
waterline and a looped waterline through Bluestem Lane. The Site is proposing
2 points of access and the use of adequately spaced fire hydrants meeting the
Barefoot Lakes, Filing 7D, Preliminary Plat
Staff Report
standards and requirements of the Frederick Firestone Fire Department.
Sanitary sewer will run throughout the Site. The sanitary sewer for the western
portion of the Site will outfall to the southwest and into an existing sanitary sewer
manhole constructed with Filing four at the corner of Birch Street and Ronald
Reagan Blvd. The eastern portion of the Site will connect to a sanitary sewer
stub recently constructed with Filing 7A in Bluestem Lane. United Power and
Black Hills Energy will provide dry utilities.
There are no jurisdictional or non -jurisdictional wetlands on the site.
D. The subdivision complies with all applicable use, development, and design
standards set forth in Chapters 3, 5, and 6 of this FDC that have not
otherwise been modified or waived pursuant to this Chapter or this FDC.
Staff Response: The proposed preliminary plat complies with the development
and design standards set forth in Chapters 3, 5, and 6 of the FDC.
E. The subdivision complies with all applicable regulations, standards,
requirements, or plans of the Federal or State governments and other
relevant jurisdictions, including but not limited to wetlands, water quality,
erosion control, and wastewater regulations.
Staff Response: The proposed preliminary plat complies with applicable federal
and state regulations.
F. The subdivision will not result in significant adverse impacts on the natural
environment, including air, water, noise, stormwater management, wildlife,
and vegetation, or such impacts will be substantially mitigated.
Staff Response: The proposed preliminary plat will not have a significant impact
on the identified environmental conditions. A Phase 1 ESA and Biological
Assessment has been provided as part of the application to address wetland and
wildlife concerns and concluded that no federal or state -listed species were
found on the property and no recognized environmental conditions were
identified except for the oil and gas operations on the Site. Since the study has
been performed, the applicant has worked with the oil and gas companies to
remove the oil and gas facility on site and plug and abandon all active wells.
G. The subdivision shall be integrated and connected, where appropriate,
with adjacent development through street connections, sidewalks, trails,
and similar features.
Staff Response: The proposed preliminary plat is integrated and connected to
major pedestrian and vehicular passageways; parks and open space are
generally located throughout the site. A trail network is proposed that will provide
access from all areas of the Site to the park areas, as well as access to the
Pedestrian Underpass to cross Ronald Reagan Blvd. into Barefoot Lakes Filing
6 and ultimately to the trail system around the lakes.
H. The subdivision will not result in significant adverse impacts on adjacent
properties, or such impacts will be substantially mitigated.
Staff Response: Currently, adjacent properties are either part of the Barefoot
Lakes ODP or are undeveloped farmland properties. The subdivision is
proposed with 30-foot landscaping buffers adjacent to Ronald Reagan Boulevard
and Birch Street, as required by the Firestone Development Code Section
16.6.2(D)(a)(i) under the Community Gateways section of the FDC.

I. Adequate and sufficient public safety, transportation, utility facilities and
services, recreation facilities, parks, and schools are available to serve the
subject property while maintaining sufficient levels of service to existing
development.
Staff Response: The proposed preliminary plat will provide sufficient
transportation, utilities, and recreational facilities while maintaining existing
levels of service to the development. As part of this application, a large lot of
approximately 3.8 acres in size is being set aside for a future fire station to serve
the community. Also, as part of the Barefoot Phase 3 and 4 Master Site Planning
(not a part of this application), a large lot of approximately 25+ acres in size is
being planned for future dedication to the St. Wain Valley School District for a
new school to serve the community. Of the total 18.3 acres, the application
proposes 2.33 acres of open space, of which .519 acres are parks. The balance
of parks and open space required by the Firestone Development Code will be
provided in future filings. Parks and open space are generally located throughout
the Site and will be connected by a trail network that will provide access from all
areas of the Site to the park areas, as well as access to the Pedestrian
Underpass to cross Ronald Reagan Blvd. It is important to note that Parks and
Open Space are provided for this specific Final Plat; however, the amount
required and provided will be reviewed overthe entire area of the Barefoot P.U.D.
J. As applicable, the proposed phasing plan for the development of the
subdivision is rational in terms of available infrastructure capacity.
Staff Response: The phasing of the proposed preliminary plat is rational in terms
of infrastructure capacities. The construction phasing of the project will be
proposed with the final plat application and will be logical in terms of the available
and required infrastructure to serve the project.
