time the property was annexed a grading permit would be required. Staff stated
access to all the indicated tracts was required. Staff stated the stormwater

Staff noted the comments from the various other departments and agencies. Staff
suggested the applicant contact the departments or agencies directly with any
questions or concerns. There were no more issues for discussion. The Committee
then forwarded the item to the full Commission for final action.
ANALYSIS -
The applicant submitted a revised preliminary plat to staff addressing most of the
technical issues associated with the request. The applicant has indicated
annexation will be completed prior to the applicant requesting city sewer service.
The revised plat indicates the sidewalk from Valerie Court to connect with the
Kanis Road sidewalk.
The request is for preliminary plat approval to allow the subdivision of this
20.35-acre into 67 single-family residential lots. The lots are indicated with a
minimum lot size of 0.16-acres and an average lot size of 0.18-acres.
A portion of the lots are proposed with a lot width of 55-feet, which requires a
variance from City ordinance. Section 36-254 states there shall be a minimum lot
width of not less than 60-feet and a lot depth of not less than 100-feet. All lots are
indicated with a minimum lot depth as typically required per the Ordinance. The
minimum lot area per the Ordinance is 7,000 square feet. With the exception of
Lots 16, 29, 33, 36, 45 and 52, all other lots are indicated with a lot area as typically
required per the Ordinance.
The proposed preliminary plat indicates the placement of a 20-foot front platted
building line, 5-foot side yard setbacks and 25-foot rear yard setback.
The Ordinance typically requires the placement of a 25-foot front yard setback,
ten (10) percent of the lot width, not to exceed eight (8) feet for the side yard
setbacks and a 25-foot rear yard setback.
The preliminary plat includes three (3) open space tracts. The plan also indicates
a play area and mail kiosk which will also be indicated as a tract. The tracts are
proposed as common open space for recreational open space and/or detention.
All access and maintenance of the tracts, detention storage areas and detention
storage piping is the responsibility of the developer and/or the property owners
association.
The applicant is requesting a variance from the Land Alteration Ordinance to allow
advanced grading of the site and the lots with the installation of the basic
infrastructure. The applicant indicates the advanced grading is necessary to
balance the site.

infrastructure. The applicant indicates the advanced grading is necessary to
balance the site.
Staff is supportive of the applicant's request. The applicant is seeking preliminary
plat approval to allow the development of the site with single-family residential lots
at a density of 3.34-units per acre. Although there are variances associated with
the proposed preliminary plat staff does not feel the variances requested will
significantly impact this development or the area. To staff's knowledge there are
no remaining outstanding technical issues associated with the request. Staff feels
the subdivision as proposed is appropriate.
J. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the request subject to compliance with the
comments and conditions as outlined in paragraphs D, E and F of the agenda staff
report.
Staff recommends approval of the following variance requests:
A variance from Section 31-256 and 36-254 to allow the front building setback to be
reduced to 20-feet.
2. A variance from Section 31-232 to allow the creation of lots with a lot width less
than the 60-foot typically required per the R-2, Single-family zoning district, to
allow five (5) foot side yard setbacks on all the lots within the subdivision and
to allow Lots 16, 29, 33, 36, 45 and 52 to be developed with a lot area less than
7,000 square feet.
3. A variance from the Land Alteration Ordinance to allow advanced grading of
the lots with the installation of the infrastructure and streets for the subdivision.
