Item No. 2 - Continued
D. Analysis
The staff review of this plat reveals only three issues
for resolution. These are that the radius on each of
the several circle streets appears short of the
ordinance requirement of 75' to the centerline. This
is the minor street standard. If it is not in
conformance, modification should be made. If
conformity is provided, it should so be noted. The
second item is the need to identify on the plat the
intended use of the reserved tract and provide a tract
number. Third, comment from the owner to the south
suggests that a stub street may be in order to avoid
landlocked parcels.
E. Staff Recommendation
Approval, subject to resolution of the items in the
staff and engineering comments.
SUBDIVISION COMMITTEE REVIEW:
The applicant agreed to address staff's comments. There was
also a discussion on a request for an additional stub street
by a bordering property owner. The applicant was asked to
submit a written statement from the property owner stating
no desire for another stub out. The applicant explained
that the reserved tract would be a neighborhood park and
potential stormwater site.
PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION:
The applicant was present. There were no objectors;
however, Mr. Bob Richardson represented the property owner
to the south.
Staff recommended approval, subject to submission of: (1) a
revised plat reflecting the use of the reserve tract and
conformity to Ordinance requirements for radii; and
(2) resolution of any access issues among abutting property
owners and Public Works.
A motion for approval, subject to comments made was made and
passed by a vote of: 11 ayes, 0 noes and 0 absent.
