The Plat should be redesigned to separate the common area outlots between the existing attached and proposed detached units to allow separation of the associations, if necessary - this condition would impact Outlot B and Outlot D; or the applicant must provide documentation relating to inclusion of the proposed units into the current association. The applicants must show — either by design and conveyance of land to a new association which they control, or by formal agreement between the current association and the new plat — that the applicant's new units will have access rights across the common area of the outlots to the public street. Either alternative must be completed as a part of the application for Final Plat and Final PUD and to the satisfaction of the City Attorney. 2. The detached units should be designed to meet 6 foot side yard setbacks and 25 foot front yard setbacks to accommodate standard internal lot line easements and parking use of the front driveway areas. 3. The units adjacent to the existing attached buildings should be designed for submittal of Final Stage PUD documents to incorporate similar materials and colors, including siding, brick, and post design as noted. The unit designs, and designs that are similar in size and fagade detail to those proposed shall be the exclusive architecture used in the project, unless an appropriate amendment or adjustment is proposed and approved per the requirements of the PUD zoning regulations. 4. Prepare final Homeowners Association documents meeting the intent of the City and satisfying any concerns of the City Attorney relating to common maintenance and enforcement. As noted in item 1, above, the documents should reflect the clear right of the units proposed by the applicant to cross the common area to the public street. 5.
