Phone: 663-6366
AREA: 64.2 acres
NO. OF LOTS: 87 FT. NEW ST.: 7,240'
ZONING: "PRD" to "R-2"
PROPOSED USE: Single Family
VARIANCES REQUESTED:
A. Site Histor
Private Street System
A few years ago, the Commission zoned this site "PRD"
for a condominium development. The applicant has since
received several extensions of the approval.
B. Existing Conditions
This site is located in an area composed of single
family residences. The land is vacant with portions
lying in the floodway.
C. Development Proposal
This is a plan to subdivide 64.2 acres into 87 lots and
7,240' of new street. A private internal street system
is planned for'all lots, except 85, 86 and 87• These
lots will be served from Hinson Road. A gate and
guardhouse will be located at the entrance to the
subdivision to limit access.
The 200' wide floodway will be developed into a lake
system. The lake will be excavated below the existing
stream flow line, and the water surface will be near
the elevation of the existing stream bed. The
subdivision will be developed in four phases.

D. Engineering Comments
1. All floodway revisions shall be in accordance with
the City's Flood Hazard Prevention Ordinance and
FEMA requirements. Design shall be for 100-year
fully developed upstream conditions.
12 Detention is required.
3. Hinson Road alignment shall be as previously
agreed. See City Engineer for alignment.
E . Analysis
The plat should be revised to reflect appropriate
building lines. A private street system is acceptable
if a 45' public access easement is provided. The
applicant has asked to move the phase line between
Lots 12, 13, 74 and 75 so that it will be moved out of
the intersection. Also, please explain who will
maintain the private drive stubs in Phase IV.
The fronting of Lots 85-87 on an arterial street is
acceptable in this instance, since the applicant has no
choice. Evidence of the buildable nature of the lots
should be submitted when the alignment of Hinson Road
is worked out. Points of access should be restricted
to two curb cuts on a common lot line. Finally, the
applicant should make sure that the parcel near the
southwest corner of the project is not landlocked.
Building lines should be added.
F. Staff Recommendation
Approval, subject to comments.
SUBDIVISION COMMITTEE REVIEW:
The owner and his engineer were present. They explained
that: (1) the land -locked parcel was owned by Deltic Timber
and they had no desire for access; (2) a property owners
association will be responsible for maintenance and the Bill
of Assurance will set out provisions for use; and (3) a
revised plan reflecting on -site fire lines and building
lines would be submitted.
