Staff presented an overview of the item stating there were no outstanding technical issues associated with the request in need of addressing via a revised site plan. There were no more issues for discussion. The Committee then forwarded the item to the full Commission for final action. El May 17, 2018 SUBDIVISION ITEM NO.: 4(Cont.)FILE NO.: S-1814 ANALYSIS: There were no outstanding technical issues associated with the request in need of addressing via a revised site plan raised at the April 25, 2018, Subdivision Committee meeting. The applicant is proposing the addition of a second home on the property which requires review by the Planning Commission. The review is a Subdivision or Multiple Building Site Plan Review as per Section 31-13 of the Little Rock Code of Ordinances. The site contains an existing one-story log home and accessory building. The second home is proposed 30-feet by 50-feet containing 1,500 square feet of floor area. The home is proposed a minimum of 60-feet from the existing home. A new drive from Willow Springs Road will be added to access the new home. Ordinance No. 20,839 adopted by the Little Rock Board of Directors on February 11, 2014, modified Section 31-13(f) of the Little Rock Code to limit the term of approval of a site plan to a maximum of three (3) years from the date of approval. If an approved multi -phase development, has not been completed within three (3) years of the date of approval the site plan must be reviewed and reapproved by the Commission in the same manner as the initial site plan review. Staff is supportive of the applicant's request. The site is located outside the city limits of the City of Little Rock but within the City's Extraterritorial Planning Jurisdiction in which the City exercises Subdivision Regulations. The new home will be provided wastewater treatment with the installation of a new septic system. Prior to the applicant receiving a 911-address the County will require the applicant to provide all proper approvals from the Arkansas Department of Health for the installation of the septic system. To staff's knowledge there are no remaining outstanding technical issues associated with the request. Staff does not feel the placement of the second home on the site will have any adverse impact on this site or the surrounding properties. J.
