ANALYSIS• The Planning staff review of this revised preliminary plat reveals that the plat is a proper design, given the terrain and circumstances of the property. Our only concern, which was also expressed by Public Works, has to do with the maintenance of the "buttons" in the proposed cul-de-sacs. Staff suggested to include maintenance of the cul-de-sacs in the Bill of Assurance. F. STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff recommends approval of the revised preliminary plat subject to the various comments deferred above. SUBDIVISION COMMITTEE COMMENT: (DECEMBER 19, 1991) Mr. Ron Tyne was present. He indicated the reason for the preliminary plat revision is the steep grade. In order to eliminate this problem, they proposed to have two cul-de-sacs with islands in the middle. He also added that these islands would be maintained by the neighborhood association as stated in the previous Bill of Assurance for St. Charles. Mr. Tyne has also requested the two cul-de-sacs be built to minor residential standards. There were no other issues for discussion pertaining to this preliminary plat. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: (JANUARY 14, 1992) The applicant was represented. After a brief discussion, it was determined to place this item on the Consent Agenda for approval. A motion was made to this effect. The motion passed by a vote of 10 ayes, 0 noes and 1 absent. 2 January 14, 1992 ITEM NO.: 4 FILE NO.• S-65JJ NAME: St. Charles (Modified Plat), Lots 440-445, 447-461 LOCATION: Off St. Charles Blvd. on Pampano Court and Pampano Drive DEVELOPER: ENGINEER: WINROCK DEVELOPMENT COMPANY WHITE-DATERS AND ASSOC., INC. 2101 Brookwood Drive 401 Victory Little Rock, AR 72203 Little Rock, AR 72201 663-5340 374-1666 AREA: 7.4 Ac.
