Development
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN:
The 1987 Comprehensive Plan shows the property as part
of Town Center. The proposed 1996 Comprehensive Plan
shows the property as suitable for low density residential
development.
DISCUSSION:
The proposed preliminary plat is consistent with the proposed planned
development district site plan. If the Commission recommends approval
of the PD, a similar recommendation regarding the plat, would be
appropriate, provided that the recommendation is conditional upon
compliance with engineering comments.
City Council will need to waive two requirements, however. The cul-de-
sac length exceeds the 600' minimum, and Lots 13 through 27 do not have
alleys.
If the Commission continues the public hearing on the planned
development district, the appropriate action regarding the preliminary plat
would be to disapprove it, since it would not conform to the zoning in
place.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff recommends disapproval of the preliminary plat.
ALTERNATIVES:
1) Recommend approval of the Preliminary Plat
2) Recommend disapproval of the Preliminary Plat
3) Recommend modification of the Preliminary Plat
ATTACHMENTS:

2. Show visibility sight triangles at ail street intersections.
3. Impact fees required.
4. Correct vicinity map with regard to street names.
5. Show the zoning of ail adjacent properties.
6. The plat needs to reflect the proposed street aiigmnent for Ashton Ridge Lane.
7. The detail on the preliminary plat showing the proposed r.o.w clips for sidewalk does
not appear to be constructable. This detail needs to be drawn to scaie. As per our
review, the sidewalk could not be constructed as shown in the detail at the corner of
Ashton Ridge Lane and Ashton Ridge Court due to the location of proposed inlets.
Also, it appears as though with the proposed radius, the 3'x3' r.o.w clip is not
adequate room to construct the sidewalk. Please provide 10'xl0' r.o.w dips.
8. The note stating "Lot Two shail provide a 15'x15' driveway easement to Lot One for
alley access" needs to be removed from the plat.
9. The ailey right-of-way needs to be dedicated in accordance with our Standard Details
i.e. radius.
