The Existing non-
conforming salvage
yard use is to remain on
Tract 1. A PCD for a
mini -storage facility
was approved for Lot 2
A preliminary plat was approved by the Planning Commission for
the Buie Subdivision on July 13, 1993. The proposal, at that
time, was for a Tract A, which was to remain in preliminary plat
status and was to retain its non -conforming salvage yard use. No
dedication of right-of-way or improvements to Colonel Glenn Rd.
or Shackleford Rd. along the Tract A frontage were proposed. Lot
2 was to be platted as a PCD, and Shackleford Rd. right-of-way
dedication and street improvements were included. The applicant
proposes a one-year time extension on this approval, saying that
it has taken longer than expected to work out financing for the
mini -storage facility which is to occupy Lot 2 of the
subdivision____ The- PCD_for_the_mini.-storage ..facility -was approved
by the Planning Commission on August 24, 1993, then by the Board
of Directors on September 21, 1993, in Ordinance No. 16,491.

ITEM 1 n in FILE NQ.: S-9a4
A. PROPOSAW REOUE$ :
Planning Commission approval of a one-year time extension of
the approval of the Buie Subdivision preliminary plat is
requested.
B. EXISTING CONDITIONS:
The bulk of the site, designated as Tract A, is the location
of the applicant's non -conforming salvage yard operation.
The area designated as Lot 2, the area of the PCD on which
the mini -storage facility has been approved, has been mostly
cleared of salvage materials.
C. ENGINEERINGIUTILITY COMMENTS:
There are no comments requested with the proposal for the
time extension.
D. ISSUES/LEGALITECHNICAL/DESIGN:
Section 31-94(e) of the Subdivision Regulations states: "A
preliminary plat ... shall be effective and binding upon the
commission for twelve (12) months, or as long as work is
actively progressing, at the end of which time the final
plat application for the subdivision must have been
submitted to the planning staff. Any plat not receiving
final approval within the period of time set forth herein or
otherwise conforming to the requirements of this chapter
shall be null and void, and the developer shall be required
to submit a new plat of the property for preliminary
approval...."
Section 36-454 of the Zoning Regulations provides that a
developer: ..shall have three (3) years from the date of
preliminary plan approval to submit the final development
plan/plat."
E. ANALYSIS•
The preliminary plat was approved on July 13, 1993; the PCD
on September 21, 1993. Work was initiated to clean the
property of the salvage vehicles and of undergrowth within
the twelve (12) month time period, but was interrupted when
financing was delayed. Although a final plat has not been
submitted -to staff -within -the..one-year__time-limit, clearing
work was begun. Additionally, the applicant has three (3)
years to begin work on the PCD. There would be no new
requirements imposed on the development if a new preliminary
plat review were required, so there is no reason not to
approve the requested time extension.
