PLATTING
Item 4: To consider approval of a preliminary plat for the Riverchase
Clubhouse Addition, located on the east side of Riverchase
Drive, (on the Riverchase Golf Course), at the request of
American Golf Association.
Ken James, with American Golf, and Engineer Mike Daniel, with
Nathan Maier Engineers, were present to answer any questions.
Mr. James stated that they are asking for a variance to the
City's requirement for a meter, a vault and a double check
valve on the 8" water line. Mr. James stated that this item
would cost them an estimated $25,000.00, and they feel it
would serve no purpose, since all water usage would be metered
with the existing meter on the two (2) inch water service. He
also stated that the street is already in and paved. Mr.
Daniel stated that he did not feel, after various meetings
with the City, that staff still felt this was a problem.
However, P & Z Coordinator Taryon Bowman stated that after
meeting with the developer and other staff members, both Steve
Morton, of the Public Works Department, and Kevin Peiffer, of
the Consulting Engineers Office, as well as the Engineering
Department still recommended that these be installed.
It was asked by the Commission if American Golf would consider
installing the line and dedicating it as a Public Easement.
Mr. Daniel stated that they would have no problem with in-
stalling the line, and then dedicating it as a Public Ease-
ment, with a letter from Terra Development Company stating
that the City would do any future repairs to the line, and
Terra would be responsible for paying for the work. It was
the consensus of the Commission that this matter still needs
to be worked out between the developer and/or engineer, and
the City staff.
Following discussion Commissioner Thomas moved to approve the
preliminary plat, but deny the variance, and that American
Golf work with City staff to resolve any problems regarding
the requested variance prior to the City Council meeting next
Tuesday night. Commissioner Tunnell seconded the motion;
motion carried (4-1) with Commissioners Pope, Thomas, Tunnell,
and Johnson voting in favor of the motion, and Commissioner
Green voting against the motion.
Item 5: To consider approval of a final plat for the Riverchase
Clubhouse Addition, located on the east side of Riverchase
Drive, (on the Riverchase Golf Course), at the request of
American Golf Association.
Following discussion Commissioner Tunnell moved to approve the
final plat, but deny the variance, and that American Golf work
with City staff to resolve any problems regarding the
requested variance prior to the City Council meeting next
Tuesday night. Commissioner Thomas seconded the motion;
motion carried (4-1) with Commissioners Pope, Thomas, Tunnell,
and Johnson voting in favor of the motion, and Commissioner
Green voting against the motion.
The meeting was then adjourned.
