SUBDIVISION COMMITTEE COMMENT: May 30, 2002 Mr. Joe White of White-Daters and Associates was present representing the application. Staff briefly described the proposed preliminary plat indicating the applicant had requested a waiver of street improvements to both Mabelvale Pike and North Chicot Road. Staff stated the applicant should consider '/ street improvements since '/z street improvements were constructed south of the site on North Chicot Road. Staff stated there were numerous items which were needed on the proposed preliminary plat. Staff stated the applicant should indicate on the plat the multi- family zoning line. Mr. White stated he felt the proposed rear property line of the single-family was the zoning line. Staff stated the applicant should consider accessing the lots from the rear to eliminate the proposed thirteen (13) curb cuts along Mabelvale Pike. Mr. White stated he would address this with the property owner. K June 20, 2002 SUBDIVISION ITEM NO.: 8 FILE NO.: S-1345 Public Works comments were addressed. Staff stated there were concerns with the development of the site near the intersection of the two roadways and allowing fourteen curb cuts on Mabelvale Pike. Staff stated the area was in the floodplain, and although development could occur in the floodplain, there were some water issues which needed addressing. Staff requested grading contours to determine if downstream issues would arise with the development. After the discussion, the Committee determined there were no additional issues associated with the proposed plat. The Committee then forwarded the item to the full Commission for final action. H. ANALYSIS: The applicant has agreed to construct one-half street improvements to North Chicot Road and to Mabelvale Pike. The applicant has met with Public Works staff to lessen their concerns of the development in the floodplain. The applicant has not reduced the number of curb cuts along Mabelvale Pike, which is not a requirement of the Subdivision Ordinance. Large numbers of driveways along a collector street is quite prevalent around the city. Staff is supportive of the proposed preliminary plat as submitted. The proposed preliminary plat meets with the minimum requirements of the Subdivision Ordinance. Otherwise, to staff's knowledge, there are no other outstanding issues associated with the proposed preliminary plat. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the requested preliminary plat subject to compliance with the conditions outlined in paragraphs D, E and F of this report. 4
