STAFF ANALYSIS
A. EXISTING CONDITIONS
The site is of varied topography which generally falls
to the south and west. There are two drainage ways
entering the tract, one at the northeast corner and one
immediately east of the northwest corner. These
drainage courses merge and exit 200' more or less east
of the southwest corner.
The tract is heavily wooded as are the properties east,
south and west. On the north is Marlowe Manor
Subdivision which is nearly built out.
The neighborhood except for Marlowe Manor is of estate
size lots, five acres or more. To the south is St.
Charles Subdivision. All public services are
available. No sewage restriction.
B. DEVELOPMENT PROPOSAL
The owner proposes a single family subdivision with 30
lots on 9.9 acres. The average lot will be 75' x 120' .
There is a little more than one -quarter mile of street,
all of which will be residential standard. Preliminary
access is assumed to be through Marlow Manor since name
association would idenitfy with the principal access of
Hinson Road. The secondary access by way of Ridge
Haven will improve circulation.
C. CONFORMANCE TO ORDINANCE STANDARDS
The plat as submitted is generally in conformance
except for several items such as certification
description. Sidewalks are not shown on the plat, as a
request for total waiver has been requested.
D. STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of the plat as filed subject
to:
(1) Completion of plat content requirements.
(2) Provisions for continuous 27` pavement. C and G
to the east boundary.
(3) Provide an easement for dedication on the corner
of the adjacent owner's land as right-of-way for
Ridge Haven Drive.

(4) Note easement terms on plat for access across Lot
21 and 22 as to owner served and maintenance
provision also included in a bill of assurance.
(5) Delete from plat that portion of the easement
across Lots 29 and 30. Provide for removal of
surface of drive after construction of Adell
Drive.
(6) Coordinate tie of Lue Ann Drive to Morrison Court
with the engineer of that project to insure
continuity of improvements.
(7) We believe that sidewalk should be placed on Adell
Drive, but not required on Ridgehaven or Lue Ann
Drive.
SUBDIVISION COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION:
Approval as recommended by staff, except that sidewalks be
totally waived and that the engineer provide in the street
design proper transition of new pavement on Ridge Haven to
existing pavement.
PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION:
There were several objectors present. Mr. Dick Toll and
Mr. Bob Richardson represented the neighborhood along Ridge
Haven. A petition of objection was filed for the record

a lengthy discussion was held. The Commission then voted to
approve a motion to approve the plat as follows:
1. Eliminate the tie to Ridge Haven.
2. Redesign the street with a cul-de-sac to meet
ordinance standards.
3. Waive all sidewalks.
4. Provide access easement along entire south line.
