The parcel will have 100' of frontage on Shackleford Road and will run 180' in depth along the property line of the Gulf Station. There will be a 27' wide easement along the rear of the property to provide for ingress and egress to an existing 41.90' easement, recorded on the original pl°at leading to Markham. There is a triangular parcel with a frontage of 25' on Shackleford and 102.45' adjacent to the north side of the Gulf Station property line. It is recorded as mutual easement on the oriqinal plat. The applicant is asking that the Commission: (1) Approve a 25' setback on Shackleford instead of the 45' shown. (2) Release the mutual agreement with consent of the abutting bwnor (Land will, be used for parking) . March 15, 1983 SUBDIVISIONS Item No. 15 - Continued STAFF ANALYSIS: Staff views this as a piecemeal attempt at developing this property. We would prefer to see a more comprehensive approach that would take into account any further proposals for future development, including access and lotting. Even though the required building line from Shackleford is now 25', staff does not feel that enough justification has been submitted that would warrant modifying the 45' setback approved on the plat. The applicant should submit a plat that includes the remainder of the property and its description, since it was not shown on the one submitted. For,release of the easement, a letter from Gulf will be required. ENGINEERING CONSIDERATIONS: Request clarification of driveway and parking plans„ STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff will report on its recommendation at the meeting. SUBDIVISION COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION: Staff_ expressed its concern that this proposal would create too many curb cuts along Shackleford and would create a precedent of "piecemealing" in the area. It was suggested that the applicant might widen the drive to the'south instead of introducing a new one. A motion was made to defer recommendation until the applicant's engineer submitted a proposal on a joint drive with the Gulf property, and the Commission had a chance to discuss this with the owner of the lot. The motion passed by a vote of: 2 ayes, 0 noes, 3 absent. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: The applicant was present. There were no objectors. Staff gave a brief graphic presentation. The main concerns of the staff were that: (1) a coordinated and unified development approach with an internalized access system incorporating the larger tract from which this site was taken, be provided so as to minimize the amount of curb cuts onto Shackleford Road, and (2) a 45' building line approved on the original plan be retained. ti March 15; 1983 SUBDIVISIONS r Item No. 1.5 - Continued A lengthy discussion was held, during which the applicant stated objections to an internal driveway system because of the loss of parking spaces. It was finally agreed upon that a 20' driveway which would extend north along Sh ackleford Road would be provided. A motion was made and passed for approval of the plat, but not the variance request, subject to the widening of the mutual easement, and provision of temporary restrictive easements at the rear of the property until the other property is platted. The motion passed by a vote of 8 ayes, 0 noes, 2 absent and 1 abstention.
