Flanders Mill Apartments, Master Site Plan
Project Narrative - Application 19452
The Flanders Mill Apartments is a multi-phase 9.14 acre multi-household residential
development consisting of 12 12-plexs, three (3) 6-plexs, and nine (9) 4-plexs. In addition to the
residential units, proposed is a Club House with a variety of amenities for the development
residents including a gym, meeting areas, pool table, and other amenities. The property is zoned
R-4 and is in Phase 7 of the Flanders Mill Subdivision on Ryun Sun Way and Windrow Dr.
Drive lanes, parking, landscaping, site lighting and hardscape as well as the installation of the
private utilities to serve the development will be installed. In addition, the required public water
and sanitary sewer main extensions will be installed with Phase I for the entire multi-phase
development as well as the construction of the open space trail running from Windrow Drive to
Flanders Mill Road. A pedestrian bridge will be constructed across the stream corridor. A
permit for construction of the wetland crossing will be obtained prior to construction.
Constructed in the first phase as well will be the underground stormwater facility, to be located
under the parking lot in the NE corner of the development to serve the entire development.
Stormwater will sheet flow to the north and be collected by a series of inlets and piped to the
underground stormwater retention basin. A flow control manhole is proposed to retain the
required 0.5” of rain fall on site. A flow control manhole weir is set to provide for an emergency
overflow. Snow storage will be provided on-site at strategic locations to serve the development.
In the event the City experiences a higher than normal snow fall year, the owner will provide for
trucking the excess snow off site as required to maintain the minimum parking spaces. On-site
and street parking is proposed as outlined below. Open space areas are provided by a
combination of balconies, outdoor common open spaces area and the club house. The common
open spaces areas are distributed throughout the residential community with amenities such as
picnic tables, charcoal barbeques grills and benches. In addition to the outdoor open space areas
the proposed Club House is centrally located in the middle of the development and easily
accessible to the residents. Calculations for both the parking and open space areas are included
in this report.
