FILE NO.: S-878-B Public Works comments were addressed. Staff stated the plat indicated an existing right-of-way, which would need to be dealt with. Staff stated the street either needed to be constructed or a waiver approved by the Board of Directors or be abandoned. Mr. McGetrick stated the developer was willing to construct the street but was interested in the construction at the best location for the City. Mr. McGetrick stated the Master Street Plan indicated a connection in this area but he understood the connection was nearer Cooper Orbit Road than the proposed site. Staff also questioned the indicated driveways. Staff stated the property frontage did not allow for two drives and a shared drive should be placed on the property line. Mr. McGetrick stated he did not feel a shared drive between the two properties would create a conflict. He stated both developments would take access from the 40-foot street, which was to be constructed. Staff noted comments from the other reporting departments and agencies suggesting the applicant contact them individually for additional clarification. There was no further discussion of the item.
