City Engineer's information sources show this area as a closed right-of-way, is this applicant planning to improve the street? ANALYSIS This application simply represents the expansion of an existing project. It includes a request that staff be directed to review any subsequent revisions to the site plan in Phases D and IV and that the flexibility on the building specifics for these areas be granted. Due to problems with terrain, the applicant would not like to commit to the specific type and design of these November 15, 1983 SUBDIVISIONS Item No. 4 - Continued buildings. He feels that this does not interfere with the developmental concept, since the site will be stabilized by the completion of all internal drives after Phases III and A are completed. Plans include the completion of Phases III and IV, then Phases A, B and V. Staff's review of the application is favorable to the site plan; however, the applicant should submit a plan that adheres to the technical requirements of the Ordinance relative to dimensioning, etc. As for the request, we do not want to accept the responsibility of approving such building details without Commission input. Perhaps the applicant should give specifics of those buildings he is certain of and identify the others as typicals. E. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Approval of the site plan, subject to comments made. F. SUBDIVISION COMMITTEE REVIEW The applicant agreed to provide a revised plan indicating the proper dimensional relationships, structural involvement of the previously closed street to the south, and provide some guidelines for development for Phase V with a notation on the plan for an alternate proposal and the potential for change in the number. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: The applicant was present. He reported that the revised plan now included definite building details, so the request for flexibility was withdrawn. There were no objectors present. A motion was made for approval as revised, subject to the applicant's submitting documentation relative to ownership of the closed right-of-way to the south. The motion passed by a vote of 10 ayes, 0 noes and 1 absent.
