A major construction permit is required before the construction of the roadway and drainage improvements may commence. The applicant shall submit proof of financial capability for all street and storm drainage improvements. 8. The Emergency Dispatch Center of 911 reviewed the proposed street name "Chase Way NE" and rejected because there was a conflict with an existing street name. ANALYSIS AND CONCLUSIONS: 9. Roads, Streets and Easement: Standards for this section are listed in Chapter 33.16 - 33.38. Section 33.16 provides that all streets must comply with the Marion County Department of Public Works' standards. Comments received from Public Works indicate that they will require the applicant to improve the frontage along both Tierra and Hollywood Drives to public road standards. In addition, a portion of Tierra Drive is currently gravel between the proposed subdivision and Silverton Road and will have to be improved to a 22 foot turnpike standard with an additional 5 feet of pavement for pedestrian walkway. Subject to meeting the conditions outlined in Public Works comments, the development will comply with design and engineering standards. Section 33.19 addresses connectivity and states that each development must provide for connectivity to, in part, schools, parks, shopping areas, transit stops and employment centers. The proposed subdivision will not include a new public street. The Tierra Drive right-of-way serving the western side of the development will have to conform to Public Works standards but its extension and eventual connection with Hollywood drive will be with development of the property to the south and southeast. In partitioning case 90-99 development of the western most parcel was restricted until an extension of Val Vista drive was made to Hollywood Drive. That extension will also serve as a connector to an extension of Tierra Drive. Therefore, the provisions in 33.19 will apply to the future development of the land south of this proposed subdivision. Sections 33.22 (Radius at Street Intersections), 33.24 (Street Grades), 33.26 (Dedication of Right -of -Way), 33.28 (Additional Right -of Way -Widths), 33.29 (Performance Standards), 33.32 (Street or Road Improvements) are addressed by the Department of Public Works at the time of engineering review of the proposed development. Section 33.34 (Private Streets) requires the developer provide a homeowners association and maintenance agreement for all private streets. This agreement must be reviewed and approved by Marion County. This was made a condition of approval for this development because there is a private easement serving the development. 10. Blocks and lots: The standards are listed in Chapter 33.36-.44. Section 33.36 provides that blocks shall not exceed 600 feet between intersections unless there are topographical or other physical features that justify a greater length. Because the proposed development does not require additional right-of-way and only uses existing street frontage the standard will not apply. The drainage way that bisects the property north to south restricts where a new street should be located. With the development of the property to the south there will be a direct alignment with the existing intersection of Val
