ITEM: Application #P08-2A
Consider the acceptance of offered utility, drainage and pedestrian easement, street and cart path
right-of-way and restricted access dedications from Cornerstone Development Group and the
dedication of off-site utility, drainage and emergency access easements across Municipal Golf Course
property to serve the Grand Prairie Addition, a proposed 70 lot residential subdivision adjacent to the
Salina Municipal Golf Course. The subject property is a 37.14 acre tract located on the north side of
Cedar Ridge Drive east of the Mariposa Addition.
BACKGROUND:
In 1963, the Graves family acquired the Southwest Quarter of Section 20 in Saline County. This
quarter section is bounded on the south by Cloud Street and the west by Marymount Road and
contains 160 acres. Shortly after their purchase, the Schilling Air Force Base closed perm itting the
Salina Municipal Airport to relocate to the former air base. In 1967, a plan was put forward to construct
a municipal golf course at the former site of the municipal airport. Because of the north-south runway
alignment the airport land was flat and narrow and was configured in a manner that would have
required all the long holes on the course to run on a north-south axis. The City approached the four
Graves brothers (Bill, Dwight, John and Lowell) about the possibility of contributing some of their land
for use in the design and layout of the golf course so as to provide some rolling terrain and allow for a
layout that was not strictly north-south. Following some careful planning, 25 acres of Graves family
land was given to the City for inclusion in the golf course layout. One result of this land donation is that
there are now peninsulas of Graves Trust owned land between holes 7 and 12 and between holes 13
and 14.
In 1988, a master plan for the remaining Graves Trust land, known as the Mariposa Master Plan, was
approved in concept by the City of Salina and Saline County. The plan called for the closure of Cloud
Street adjacent to the Elks Club and construction of a new, realigned collector street connecting
Marymount Road and Markley Road with residential development occurring north and south of the
new street. Phase I, the Mariposa Addition, Blocks 1-6, were platted in 1989. Phase II, the Flor De Sol
Townhome and Briargate areas close to Markley Road, were platted and developed in 2000. Phase
III, the Cedar Ridge Addition, was platted in 2004 and Cloud Street was eliminated and Cedar Ridge
Drive was constructed as part of development of that subdivision.
The Cornerstone Development Group has purchased a portion of the Graves Trust property between
Cedar Ridge Drive and the Municipal Golf Course with plans to develop a residential subdivision.
They retained the services of a land surveyor and civil engineer to develop potential subdivision
layouts for the area. Their layouts led them to have some preliminary discussions with the golf course
staff about potential land swaps and boundary adjustments between their subdivision and the golf
course property. They identified areas where the addition of the golf course land could square off the
subdivision boundary to provide better lot configurations and areas they would be willing to transfer to
the golf course to widen areas adjacent to the ih hole fairway.
Because all parties whose land is included in a subdivision plat must consent to participate in the plat

application, the Cornerstone Development Group made a formal written request that the governing
body authorize the City of Salina to be a co-applicant in the platting of the property to allow portions of
the golf course property to be included within the subdivision boundary.
In terms of net land area, the proposed land swaps would result in more golf course land being added
to the subdivision than Cornerstone land being added to the golf course, however, the developers are
also proposing to grant trail easements or rights-of-way to the City to allow golf course personnel to
travel through the subdivision to get between holes 7 and 12 and 6 and 12 to perform golf course
maintenance functions. These trail corridors for City use contain approximately 6,840 sq. ft. Other
requested areas of City participation and cooperation were the dedication of utility easements to allow
utility extensions under golf course property, the granting of an emergency access easement over to
Markley Road and the possible construction of a stormwater detention/retention pond on golf course
property between the 13th and 14th fairways.
In addition to the cart trail corridors, other potential benefits to the Municipal Golf Course operation
from participating in this plat would be establishing a surveyed, monumented boundary along the
south side of the golf course, and the potential for connecting an existing golf course restrooms to the
public sewer system in the Grand Prairie Addition.
The City Commission considered Cornerstone's request for City participation at their January 28,
2008 meeting and approved a resolution (4-0) authorizing the inclusion of Municipal Golf Course land
in Cornerstone's subdivision plat and rezoning applications. The resolution essentially authorized the
City of Salina to be a co-applicant on the plat as a landowner and authorized the Parks and
Recreation Director to sign the rezoning and plat applications on behalf of the City but preserved the
City Commission's authority to approve or disapprove the amount of City owned land included in the
final layout. A preliminary plat application was filed on February 15, 2008.
The Salina City Planning Commission met on March 18, 2008 and considered Cornerstone's
proposed preliminary plat of the Grand Prairie Addition. Following presentation of the staff report,
comments from the Parks and Recreation Director, comments from the design engineer and
comments and questions by Commissioners, the Commission voted 8-0 to approve Cornerstone's
proposed preliminary plat of the property. The Planning Commission's approval was made subject to
the following conditions:
1. The applicant shall obtain a letter from the Mariposa Homeowner's Association authorizing
excavation within the Mariposa Common Area and connection to the sanitary sewer
system located within the common area prior to Planning Commission consideration of a
final plat. Modified by Planning Commission December 2, 2008.
2. An emergency entrance and all weather access road from Markley Road over to the public
street in the north peninsula shall be constructed as part of the development of the north
peninsula area. The Fire Chief shall approve plans and specifications for the proposed fire
access road prior to consideration of a final plat by the Planning Commission. Construction

shall be completed prior to issuance of any certificate of occupancy in the subdivision.
Conceptually approved by Fire Marshal.
3. The applicant shall obtain a letter from the Director of Parks and Recreation approving the
proposed boundary adjustments to the Municipal Golf Course boundary, the proposed
location and design of the detention/retention pond located between holes #13 and #14,
proposed easement locations and the emergency access road design prior to Planning
Commission consideration of the final plat. The Director of Parks and Recreation and
the golf course staff did not approve of the proposed location and design of the golf
course pond and the pond has been relocated to Cornerstone property. The other
easement locations were acceptable but the golf course staff did not want any excavation
work on the golf course to occur between April and November.
4. The City Engineer shall approve preliminary plans and specifications for the internal public
streets, on-site and off-site water and sanitary sewer line extensions and storm water
collection and detention facilities needed to serve this subdivision prior to Planning
Commission consideration of a final plat. Needed utility and drainage easements shall be
provided on the final plat. Draft descriptions of proposed off-site easements shall also be
included with the final plat. Approval letter attached.
5. The applicant's engineer shall provide the City Engineer with confirmation that the turning
radii on the proposed cul-de-sacs within the subdivision are adequate to accommodate fire
trucks and trash trucks prior to Planning Commission consideration of the final plat.
Reviewed and confirmed by City Engineer.
6. A maintenance plan for the drainage ways adjacent to the golf cart trail corridors shall be
agreed upon prior to Planning Commission consideration of the final plat. Golf course
staff will maintain cart trail corridors. Developers are proposing to pay a fee and
have the City take over ownership and maintenance of their detention pond.
7. Proposed street names shall be provided on the final plat. Shown on plat.
8. Section corner ties, subdivision and block corners and a curve data table shall be provided
on the final plat. Shown on plat.
Nature of Current Request
The Cornerstone Development Group is requesting final plat approval to allow the residential
development of a 37.14 acre tract bordered by the Mariposa Addition on the west, the Salina
Municipal Golf Course on the north and east, unplatted agricultural land on the southeast and Cedar
Ridge Drive on the south. As proposed, this 37.14 acre tract would be subdivided into 70 residential
building lots for single-fam ily homes. The entire 37.14 acre tract now being proposed for residential
development is vacant pasture land. The property directly to the west was platted, rezoned and

annexed into the city as part (Block 5) of the Mariposa Addition in 1989 but no development has ever
occurred on this property. A separate request to rezone this property from A-1 to R-1 was filed with
the preliminary plat application.
Chanqes from Preliminarv Plat
Following approval of the preliminary plat, the proposed location of the golf course detention pond
between holes #13 and 14 was staked out in the field. After reviewing the staked out location in
relation to fairway landing areas on the two holes, both golfers and golf course staff expressed
dissatisfaction with its proposed location and configuration. Therefore on the proposed final plat the
primary detention basin has been relocated to Cornerstone property between holes #6 and #12 on the
golf course and is no longer on golf course property. This decision eliminated the potential for
Cornerstone to construct a water feature on the golf course which could also serve as a supplemental
source of irrigation water. Consequently, all proposed detention is on Cornerstone property.
Street Access and Desiqn
It appears that the applicant has designed a street network that generally conforms with the existing
topography on this site. The applicant's plat layout shows a single public street connection to Cedar
Ridge Drive. Ideally, major entrances to subdivisions on opposite sides of a collector or arterial street
should line up with one another. In this case the street connection was dictated by the location which
had the best sight lines east and west on Cedar Ridge Drive. A second connection to Cedar Ridge
Drive was not proposed because no other location offered safe sight distances.
All internal residential streets would all be public streets with 60 ft. of right-of-way, curb and gutter and
33 ft. of paving, except for Bentgrass Drive at the subdivision entrance. The South 800 ft. of Bentgrass
Drive would have 86 ft. of right-of-way to accommodate a boulevard or parkway design with a large
center median. These proposed right-of-way and paving widths meet city standards. The paving
width of the original section of Mariposa Drive is 41 ft. but the width of the remaining Cedar Ridge
Drive section is 29 ft.
Forty-five (45) of the 70 lots proposed would have driveway access on Bentgrass Drive, the main
entrance road. Although several lots abut or back up to Cedar Ridge Drive, there would be no
individual driveways onto that street.

county. The Planning Commission has the authority to approve or not approve proposed street names
and accepted the three (3) proposed names.
Variance Requests
The applicant is requesting two (2) variances from the city's Subdivision Regulations.
1) A variance to the maximum length of a dead end (cul-de-sac) street; and
2) A variance to the requirement for a 150 ft. tangent between all street curves.
The length of the proposed dead end street in the peninsula is over 2,300 ft. and is 2,650 ft. from the
entrance to the subdivision if the length of the parkway is included.
Section 36-10 of the Salina Code states that if the Planning Commission finds that particular
hardships or practical difficulties may result from strict compliance with the subdivision regulation, it
may approve variations of exceptions to the regulations so that substantial justice may be done and
the public interest served. This section also states that the Planning Commission shall not
approve variations unless it shall make findings based upon the evidence presented to it in
each specific case that:
1) The granting of the variation will not be detrimental to the public safety, health or welfare or
injurious to other property or improvements in the neighborhood in which the property is located;
2) The conditions upon which the request for a variation are based are unique to the property for
which the variation is sought, and are not applicable generally to other property;
3) Because of the particular physical surroundings, shape or topographical conditions of the specific
property involved, an extraordinary hardship to the owner would result, as distinguished from a
mere inconvenience, if the strict letter of this chapter is carried out;
4) The variation will not in any manner vary the provisions of the zoning regulations, ordinance,
comprehensive plan, official street classification plan and/or major street plan or official map of the
city.
Staff Analvsis
The two conditions that make this property unique are its relatively landlocked location and the shape
and topography of the site. The property is bordered on the west by a platted lot and on the north and
east by the Salina Municipal Golf Course. That leaves only the Cedar Ridge Drive frontage as
potential street access to the site and the choice of access points is limited by the hills and curves on
that street which affect sight lines.

With the total length of this property (2,600 ft. from north to south), the golf course to the north and
east and the natural slopes and dropoffs, the developer is very limited as to how they can layout lots
and streets within the developable portions of this 37 acre tract.
To mitigate concerns about having a second way into the development for emergency vehicles if the
Cedar Ridge entrance is blocked, the applicant is proposing to work with the golf course to construct a
secondary emergency access road from Markley Road to the northern cul-de-sac. This emergency
access road would be located on golf course property crossing the 3rd and ih holes of the course.
This plan has been reviewed and conceptually approved by the Fire Marshal and golf course staff.
As to sidewalks, the developer is proposing an extensive network of rear yard pedestrian trails which
will be owned and maintained by the abutting owners. This trail network would provide residents with
off-street walking paths within the subdivision but in staff's opinion would not substitute for an on
street sidewalk system. The Planning Commission has the authority to require sidewalks as a
condition of granting any street length variance.
Lot Desiqn
All lots and blocks have been numbered on the plat drawing. Staff recommended that this subdivision
be divided up into separate blocks at natural dividing points and a total of 74 numbered lots divided
into two blocks are shown on the final plat. Not all 74 of the lots on the plat are buildable. Staff
recommended that open space areas (Lot 2 and Lot 37, Block 2) and drainage easements (Lot 30,
Block 1 and Lot 6, Block 2) be labeled as separate lots which would put the number of buildable lots at
70. All lots shown would have adequate frontage on and access to a public street. It appears that the
width, depth and area dimensions of all lots shown on the plat would meet or exceed the minimum
standards of the R-1 district. It does not appear that there would be any foreseeable difficulties, for
reasons of topography or other conditions, in obtaining building permits to build on any of the
proposed building lots lots, except for proposed Lots 3, 4, 5 and 6, Block 1 which have substantial
slopes from east to west. Creative site planning or substantial regrading will be required on these lots.
Public Utilities and Services
1. Water Supply and Fire Protection - This area is fed primarily by an 8" water line running west
from Markley Road along the alignment of Cedar Ridge Drive. There is an existing 8" line in
Marymount Road that runs from Crawford south to the Elks Club. The Fire Code would require
that the water distribution system serving this subdivision be capable of providing 1,000 g.p.m.
for fire protection.
The Utilities Director has determined that adequate volume and pressure exists in the existing
water distribution system to serve this 37 acre site. However without a second connection, this
subdivision would have a long dead end system. A looped system with two sources of flow

would be created by extending a water line from the north end of Bentgrass Drive across the
golf course over to a 20" water line in Markley Road.
Internal water lines could be financed over 15 years through creation of a benefit district with
the developer putting up 20% of the cost in cash or a letter of credit equal to 35% of the
estimated cost.
2. Sanitary sewer - Preliminary plans show that this subdivision can be served by a gravity
system. The nearest point of connection is a manhole adjacent to the Mariposa detention pond
and Lot 12, Block 1 of the Mariposa Addition. This would require the construction of an off-site
sewer line across golf course property to reach this manhole. There are two routes or options
for connecting to this manhole. Option B would cross the Mariposa pond and would require
Homeowner's Association approval. Option A would be to utilize an existing utility easement
north of Lot 12, Block 1. Staff and the developers prefer Option B but it is dependent on the
Mariposa Homeowners Association granting a sewer line easement.
A network of 8" sewer lines located in the street right-of-way is proposed to serve individual
building lots. The details of the sanitary sewer system and the design and layout of internal
sewer lines will be resolved during the Engineering Department's review of actual design plans.
Internal lateral lines and the off-site sewer connection could be financed through creation of a
benefit district with the developer putting up 20% of the cost in cash or a letter of credit equal to
35% of the estimated cost.
3. Natural Gas - Kansas Gas Service has an existing gas line that extends south from Crawford
along Marymount Road. They have extended another gas line west from Markley Road along
vacated Cloud Street to provide a second gas feed into the RiverRun area. The Cedar Ridge
Addition on the south side of Cedar Ridge Drive has a gas distribution system and this could be
extended north into Grand Prairie.
4. Electricity - Westar Energy has electrical lines serving the golf course and the nearby Mariposa
and Cedar Ridge Additions which could be extended to serve the Grand Prairie Addition.
All electrical lines serving this subdivision must be placed underground. This would not include
high voltage distribution lines crossing the property or pre-existing overhead lines.
5. Storm Drainage - The City's stormwater management regulations require the developer to
design a stormwater drainage system to either accommodate or detain the additional runoff
caused by development of the site (the difference between existing and developed conditions),
The applicant's stormwater drainage plan has been approved in concept by the City Enginner
and the proposed detention basins located within the subdivision have been sized mostly to
accommodate off-site runoff coming from the south. It will really function more as a pass
through basin than a storage pond. Final design and construction plans for any proposed
surface flumes or ditches, storm sewers and detention facilities must be approved by the City

Engineer prior to issuance of any building permits in this subdivision. The applicant will need to
obtain off-site drainage easements from the Municipal Golf Course (the City) in 3 locations to
allow storm water discharge to enter and flow across golf course property.
6. Fire Protection - Fire response from Station #4, located at Marymount and Crawford, is about 5
minutes to the entrance of the subdivision. An emergency access drive connection from
Markley Road across the golf course to Bentgrass Drive would provide a second means of
emergency access should there be any type of blockage at the Cedar Ridge Drive entrance.
This access drive would follow a path that is already in use.
7. Police Protection - Provided by the Salina Police Department once internal streets are built and
opened to traffic.
8. Schools - Students in this proposed development would attend the following schools:
Meadowlark School - Grades K-5; Lakewood Middle School - Grades 7-8; Salina Central High
School - Grades 9-12. U.S.D. #305 has not indicated to City staff that this development will
create any crowding problems at the above mentioned schools.
9. Parks - This property is shown as being located in Neighborhood Park Service Area #8 in the
City's Neighborhood Park Plan. There are no Neighborhood Parks within this area. Under the
City's Park Land Ordinance, developers of residential subdivisions have the option of
dedicating land within their subdivision for public park purposes or paying a fee in lieu of
dedication. The fee is set at $200 / dwelling for single-family dwellings. This fee may be
reduced by 50% when the developer provides private recreation and open space for
subdivision residents such as what was proposed in RiverRun.
10. Streets & Traffic - The applicant's engineer has not submitted an analysis of projected traffic
from this development. A traffic study was not requested because Cedar Ridge Drive is a
newly constructed collector street that was designed to accommodate the ultimate build out in
this area. Based on a trip generation rate of 10 vehicle trips per day per household, staff
estimates that a total of 700 vehicle trips per day would be generated if the entire platted area
were fully developed with homes. This is less than the projected 1,088 vehicle trips per day
that would be generated by RiverRun, all entering or leaving that subdivision through one
access point (RiverRun Parkway).
Easements and Dedications - The applicant is proposing to dedicate all street right-of-way and
improvements shown on the plat to the public for City maintenance. All utility and drainage
easements shown on the plat would be dedicated public easements. Platted restricted access is
proposed along all of Cedar Ridge Drive except for the street opening for Bentgrass Drive.
There is already 60 ft. of existing dedicated right-of-way for Cedar Ridge Drive adjacent to this
property. The right-of-way for Cedar Ridge Drive was dedicated jointly by Haworth Construction and
the Graves Trust.

All needed on-site utility and drainage easements are provided on the plat but the applicant is also
responsible for obtaining utility, drainage and access easements from the City of Salina and Mariposa
HOA to allow utility lines and stormwater runoff to flow across the golf course property. These
easements will need to be described and dedicated by separate instrument and will need to be
finalized and executed prior to City Commission consideration of the final plat.
Required Public Improvements
The developer of Grand Prairie Addition would be responsible for the following public
improvements:
1. Streets - Approximately 4,200 ft. of asphalt or concrete paving, 2 lanes, 33 ft. wide with curb and
gutter for internal streets, except for the wider parkway section on Bentgrass Drive.
2. Sidewalks - 4' sidewalks along both sides of (Bentgrass Drive and Larkspur Lane) unless an
exemption is requested and granted. Cul-de-sacs less than 600 ft. in length are exempt from the
sidewalk requirement.
3. Drainage - Construction of the primary and secondary detention basins and street inlets and pipes
or flumes needed to carry runoff to the collection and discharge points shown on the drainage
plan.
4. Utilities - Design and construction of internal public sewer lines and water mains needed to serve
individual building lots as well as off-site utility extensions / connections.
The City of Salina would be responsible for the following public improvements:
1. If special assessment financing is used, oversight over the contractor installing all on-site and off-
site public improvements.
2. Design and construction of any repairs or modifications that need to be made to the concrete
drainage flumes carrying water from the Municipal Golf Course into the Mariposa Pond.
3. Design and construction of the cart trails running through the subdivision.
4. Design and construction of any sewer lines serving golf course restrooms.
Special Assessments /Impact Fees
Portions of this property received assessments in 1999 for the 8" water line connection from
Marymount Road to the Markley Water Tower and the sewer pump station constructed at the
intersection of Marymount Road and Mariposa Drive. These assessments were initially deferred in
1999 because this property was outside the city limits.

Property owners outside of this proposed subdivision should not be impacted by assessments for
internal streets or public utilities that serve only this development. The Graves Trust property received
a substantial assessment (39% of the cost) for Cedar Ridge Drive in 2004. All costs for on-site
improvements will be borne by the owner/developer of Grand Prairie or passed on to lot buyers as a
special assessment.
Phasinq of Public Improvements
The developers have indicated that they plan to install all public improvements upfront in the first
phase of development but they would have the option of phasing in some public improvements.
Covenants
The developers have submitted a draft set of Restrictive Covenants for the subdivision for staff's
review. Covenants and an architectural control committee will be used to establish private housing
design requirements and other building restrictions.
Conformance with Comprehensive Plan
1. Land Use Map - The City's Land Use Plan shows this area as being appropriate for low-density
residential development and in a Primary Service Area for the extension of city utilities and
services. The proposed residential density of this subdivision (70 units on 37.14 acres) computes
to 1.88 units per acre which is substantially less than the low density residential classification of
4.0 units per acre.
Salina Comprehensive Plan
Residential Development Policies
for New Subdivisions
R4 Future residential growth should embrace the traditional "neighborhood unit" concept, updated
to reflect current needs and desires. Neighborhoods should be self-contained areas designed
primarily for residential use. Through-traffic should be rerouted around the neighborhood, with
a limited number of collector streets penetrating it. Neighborhoods should have access to a
small convenience shopping area, accessible by foot or bicycle. Each neighborhood should be
adequately served by an elementary school. Safe pedestrian walkway systems should connect
homes with schools and other neighborhood facilities. Where possible, multi-family housing
should be located on the edge of residential neighborhoods and near other major traffic
generators.
R5 New housing areas should be served by a safe and convenient circulation system with streets
and roadways relating to and connecting with existing streets in adjacent areas. However,

residential traffic should be separated from non-residential traffic whenever possible. New
residential street should generally follow the contour of the land and seek to highlight the
natural features of the area. Access to residential properties should be limited to local streets
wherever possible.
R7 Any significant new residential development should include a small new park site to serve new
residents
R8 Major new residential developments should be developed as planned unit developments (PUD)
or as planned development district (PDD). PUDs or PDDs give the City maximum control over
residential area design and development, and also gives the potential developers flexibility and
incentives for creative and high-quality projects.
R14 No new residential development should be permitted until adequate water and sanitary sewer
service are provided. Every effort should be made to discourage growth in locations where
provision of these services are not available or planned as part of the City's future urban
service growth areas.
R15 Natural environmental features within residential areas should be preserved and protected.
Natural vegetation, developed wooded areas, and large mature trees in residential areas add
greatly to the ambiance of the City as a whole and should be maintained. Changes to the
natural topography should be minimal.
Planninq Commission Action
The Salina City Planning Commission met on November 4, 2008, December 2, 2008 and again on
December 16, 2008 to review and consider Cornerstone Development's application for approval of a
final plat of the Grand Prairie Addition. Following presentation of the staff report, comments from Mr.
Umphrey and comments and questions by Commissioners, the Commission voted 7-0 to approve the
proposed final plat of the property at the December 16th meeting. The Planning Commission's
approval was made subject to the following conditions:
1. The developer shall be responsible for installation of all public improvements shown on the
approved preliminary plat and infrastructure plan drawings through private financing or by

RE:
Grand Prairie Addition (City Project No. 08-2729)
FROM:
Daniel R. Stack, P.E., City Engineer
~~~
Per Section 36-75 of the Salina Subdivision Regulations, the City Engineer's office has reviewed the
storm drainage report prepared by Campbell & Johnson, P.A. for the above referenced subdivision.
The report outlines the following:
. The property consists of approximately 37.6 acres which drains north and west
. Detention calculations were based on the required 25-year, 24-hour storm event
. The excess volume of runoff generated by the development will be detained in two ponds
holding 6,043 yd3 of storm water - more than the required 5,627 yd3
. 22.2 acres of off-site runoff is being detained to replace the portion of the development runoff
not able to be detained due to the location of the two ponds as required by the Municipal Golf
Course
. Peak runoff from the development and upstream off-site property will be reduced by 13% from
65.8 cfs to 57.2 cfs
. Adequate erosion and velocity dissipation measures have been addressed at both the 16 and
M1 outlets which discharge onto Municipal Golf Course property
The analysis of the Campbell & Johnson report is based on good engineering practices and meets
the City of Salina Design Criteria.
Per Section 36-74.1 of the Salina Subdivision Regulations, we have reviewed the proposed street
segments, cul-de-sacs, and median islands and determined that the design provides adequate
turning radii for trash and fire trucks.

Salina Planning Commission
December 16,2008
Page 3 of 5
#4. Application #A08-2, filed by Landmark Development Co., requesting annexation
of a 36.15 acre tract of land located at the northeast corner of Crawford Street
and Holmes Road in Saline County, Kansas.
MOTION: Mr. Mikesell stated I move that we postpone consideration of Applications #P08-9
and #A08-2 to allow possible areas of cooperation between Todd Welsh, the
First Christian Church and Landmark Development to be explored.
SECOND: Mr. Meier
VOTE: Motion carried 7-0.
I #5. Application #P08-2A, filed by Cornerstone Development Group, requesting
approval of a final plat of a proposed 70 lot residential subdivision to be known as
the Grand Prairie Addition to the City of Salina. The subject property is a 37.14
acre tract located on the north side of Cedar Ridge Drive east of the Mariposa
Addition and includes portions of the Salina Municipal Golf Course property.
Continued from December 2, 2008 meeting.
Mr. Andrew presented the staff report with visual graphics which are contained in
the case file. He summarized how each of the conditions of preliminary plat
approval had been met.
William (Cork) Umphrey, representative of Cornerstone Development Group,
stated that Cornerstone was fine with the 11 conditions of approval
recommended by staff. He said they would be filing covenants and there would
be a Homeowner's Association.
Mrs. Soderberg asked whether the case number for this application was #P08-2A
or #P08-5A as printed on the agenda page.
Mr. Andrew confirmed that it is #P08-2A.
MOTION: Mr. Ritter stated I move that we approve final plat Application #P08-2A with the
11 conditions recommended by staff.
SECOND: Mr. Householter.
VOTE: Motion carried 7-0.
#6. Application #P08-10/10A, filed by Kaw Valley Engineering on behalf of D.L.

SECOND: Mr. Schneider.
VOTE: Motion carried 5-0.
#4. Application #P08-2A, filed by Cornerstone Development Group,
requesting approval of a final plat of a proposed 70 lot residential
subdivision to be known as the Grand Prairie Addition to the City of
Salina. The subject property is a 37.14 acre tract located on the north
side of Cedar Ridge Drive east of the Mariposa Addition and includes
portions of the Salina Municipal Golf Course property.
Mr. Andrew presented the staff report with visual graphics which are
contained in the case file.
Mr. Andrew explained that Planning staff was still missing two
documents needed for the Grand Prairie final plat. One of these
documents is a letter from the City Engineer approving the overall
subdivision drainage plan and the other is a letter from the Mariposa
Homeowner's Association giving permission for a sewer pipeline to
serve the Grand Prairie Addition to cross the Mariposa detention pond
area to connect to a public line serving the Mariposa Addition.
Mr. Stack explained that the Engineering Department received revised
drainage plans for the Grand Prairie Addition at 2:41 PM that day and
simply did not have enough time to review and approve them.
Paul Carpenter, 2143 Columbine Court, President of the Mariposa
Homeowner's Association, explained that his group was fine with the
sewer pipeline going under their pond, but would not agree to that
unless they were given some help with the maintenance of the pond.
He suggested that the City of Salina take over maintenance of the pond
due to its proximity to the golf course.
William (Cork) Umphrey representing Cornerstone Development Group
stated that although it would be less expensive and easier to run the
sewer under the Mariposa pond, they would not be blackmailed just to
accomplish that. He explained that due to Mariposa's non-cooperation,
the sewer would have to be routed to the north. This option would be
more disruptive to current landscaping on private property and would
require dangerous 17 ft. deep trenches.
Mr. Andrew explained that when the preliminary plat of the Grand
Prairie Addition was approved in March it was believed that there was
only one feasible route for providing gravity sewer service to the Grand
Salina Planning Commission
December 2, 2008
Page 4 of 5
Prairie Addition and that was through the Mariposa Common Area.
Mariposa's covenants state that no sewer lines or other utilities may be
placed in the Common Area without the Homeowners Association's
approval. Therefore, the Planning Commission required that the
Mariposa Homeowners Association indicate their approval in writing
prior to Planning Commission consideration of the final plat so that
everyone was assured that a sewer solution was in fact available. Since
that time, Cornerstone's engineers have demonstrated that there is an
Option B available (the north route) that is technically and legally
possible and that does not require Mariposa Homeowner's Association
approval. The question is whether the Planning Commission is willing to
modify Condition #1 to take into account there is now an alternative to
going through the pond. If so, that would allow the final plat to be
considered without requiring the pond route. Steve Snyder, Parks &
Recreation Director, has reviewed the two routes and does not believe
that one route would have any more impact on the golf course than the
other.
MOTION: Mr. Ritter stated I move that Condition #1 of our preliminary plat
approval be amended to allow either sewer option.
SECOND: Mr. Schneider.
VOTE: The motion carried 5-0.
-io Approval of this motion eliminated the requirement that written approval
be obtained from the Mariposa Homeowners Association but does not
preclude the sewer going through the pond if some agreement is
reached.
#5. Application #P08-8A, filed by James Hall on behalf of Great Plains
Manufacturing and multiple owners, requesting approval of a replat of
portions of the White Acres Subdivision, Idlewilde Gardens Addition and
Brown and Brown Addition to create the Great Plains Campus Addition.
The subject property consists of 54.37 acres located on the north side
of North Street east of Ohio Street in the City of Salina, Saline County,
Kansas.
Mr. Andrew presented the staff report with visual graphics which are
contained in the case file.
James Hall, Great Plains Manufacturing, 1525 E. North Street,
explained that this replat was an effort to clean up an outdated and
confusing system. The replat would radically simplify the description of
lots in this area.

tract of land to allow it to be added to the proposed Magnolia Commons Addition.
Mr. Andrew presented the staff report with visual graphics which is contained in
the case file.
MOTION: Mrs. Soderberg stated I move we recommend approval of Application #A08-1
requesting that 9 additional acres be annexed into the city.
SECOND: Mr. Mikesell.
VOTE: Motion carried 7-0.
1 #5. Consider proposed changes to the storm drainage / stormwater detention plan
for the Grand Prairie Addition residential subdivision located on the north side of
. Cedar Ridge Drive east of the Mariposa Addition.
Mr. Andrew presented the staff report with visual graphics as contained in the
case file.
Greg Adams of Campbell & Johnson Engineers, PO Box 1332, Junction City, KS
spoke regarding the plan for on-site and off-site drainage and stormwater
detention as a representative of Cornerstone Development Group. He explained
that this site was very difficult as water flows in many directions. The preliminary
plat showed a plan to include a detention pond on the golf course between holes
#13 and #14 as a permanent water hazard. However, in order to accomplish this,
a number of mature trees would have been cut down. To avoid this, the pond
was then moved north, but it was then determined that it could potentially cause
flooding of the fairway if there was a greater than 25 year rainfall event. Mr.
Adams explained that he was able to design a system that would hold back the
volume of water corning from the south in order to offset the water that the
Cornerstone Development would generate. He designed a channel that spreads
out the water and would slow it to 2 ft. per second. He explained that after this
design was implemented, there would actually be less water going into the
Mariposa pond than before. There was some thought about adding a second
Salina Planning Commission
November 4, 2008
Page 4 of 5
small detention pond but it would only hold a small event, a 5 or 10 year rain.
Since this would cause water to cross the golf course as well, he didn't see the
merit in a secondary pond on the golf course property.
Steve Snyder provided his perspective on the reasons for abandoning the golf
course pond idea.
Wayne Nelson noted that a secondary pond would be a dry bottom pond. He
stated that City staff met with Mr. Adams earlier this afternoon and looked at
several options. One was another pond between Lots 59 and 60 in Block 1 and
another idea was to add an energy dissipation device in the form of a rock
garden where a drainage flume discharges runoff from Larkspur Lane on to the
golf course.
Darald Hough, 2144 Columbine Ct., and Paul Carpenter, 2143 Columbine Ct.
spoke as representatives for the Mariposa Homeowner's Association, owners of
the pond where runoff will end up. A video taken by Mr. Hough was shown to
illustrate the amount of water the Mariposa pond receives from the golf course.
Mr. Carpenter explained that the Homeowner's Association spends a
considerable amount of money on maintenance of their detention pond/drainage
system and also on erosion repairs needed due to flooding. The pond dam
collapsed in 1993 and had to be replaced at a cost of $25,000. The Mariposa
Homeowner's Association is concerned that runoff from the Grand Prairie
Addition and golf course could potentially cause an additional burden on their
detention pond/drainage system and end up costing them more money.
Mrs. Soderberg suggested that the Mariposa Homeowner's Association voice
their concerns to the City Commission and show them the flooding video.
The Planning Commission took no formal action but asked staff to address the
drainage concerns in their staff report when the final plat of Grand Prairie
Addition comes before the Commission.
#6. Other Matters.
Mr. Andrew stated that their could be follow up action on Magnolia Commons
and the Grand Prairie Addition as early as your next meeting on the 18th. We also
have some plats that are currently scheduled to be considered on December 2nd.
The meeting adjourned at 6:09 P.M.
