STAFF REPORT
A. EXISTING CONDITIONS
The tract involved is presently unused. There is
some ground cover natural to the area and some small
timber. The site takes primary access from Foxcroft
Road on the east with a potential access to Highway 10
(Cantrell Road) at the southwest corner.
B. EXISTING FACILITIES AND SERVICES
All public services and utilities are in place.
C. DEVELOPMENT PROPOSAL
Although specifics are not available at this writing,
the density projected is 9 + units per acre. There are
17 buildings proposed at 45' x 80'. The site will be
served by an access easement system which will double
as parking and drives. This site is being designed to
focus on a court area with pool.
D. CONFORMANCE TO ORDINANCE STANDARDS
This plat was brought about by a desire of the owner to
possibly retain a small tract fronting Cantrell as
future use. There are several issues associated with
platting the small lot. The most significant is the
lot is substandard, unless sufficient design changes
are made to provide depth, area and building line
location. A second reason for platting is the
Subdivision Ordinance dealing with multistructure
sites. All of the activity here is associated with a
conversion adjustment which when filed asked for a
"C-3" to "MF-18." There were design related problems
with "MF-18," and the owner changed his request to
11C-3" to 110-2." The principle problem with "MF-18" was
a prohibition against parking in the front yard which
is proposed.
