COMPREHENSIVE PLAN:
The Comprehensive Plan shows the property as suitable for
residential, low density uses, perhaps with an historic
overlay.
DISCUSSION:
This is a request to allow the development of one house on a 1.49-acre
parcel. It is bounded on the west and northeast with housing on 9000
square foot lots, so the proposal (from a lot size perspective) easily fits
into the overall neighborhood. By meeting our platting and landscaping
requirements, this proposal compliments the existing development, and
would be a positive addition to the community.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff recommends approval of the minor plat subject to the following conditions:
-acknowledgement that no improvements or grading will be allowed in the
lO0-year flood plain, and delineate the FEMA floodplain on the plat
-clearly show zoning boundaries on this property as well as the zoning
surrounding this plat
-provide the drainage easement requested by Engineering
-recognize that due to the erosive banks of the creek, erosion protection
may be needed
-if, at some future date, the cabana/pool can be constructed, the
applicant/property owner acknowledges that because of its remoteness,
fire/emergency service response could be delayed
-compliance with landscape regulations of the Zoning Ordinance
ALTERNATIVES:
1) Recommend approval of the request
2) Recommend disapproval of the request
