DISCUSSION:
In an attempt to expedite the review process, this applicant has submitted a
PD zoning application, a preliminary plat application, and a final
subdivision application all at the same time. If the PD zoning application
is supported, then the preliminary plat can be also. Although somewhat
unusual, but not without precedence, these requests can be reviewed and
forwarded provided all regulations of the City are followed. The applicant
is aware that just because he has submitted all these documents for review
at this time, the Commission and Council have no obligation to favorably
consider them.
Indeed, staff comments relative to the PD suggested that additional study
and analysis needed to be done before the PD should be approved. We
also stated, however, that if the Commission felt an approval was
appropriate, then several conditions needed to be attached to that zoning
approval, and we so listed.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Our ftrst response is that the preliminary plat should be denied because the
conditions of PD zoning have not been approved. If, however, the PD
zoning garners favorable action, then this preliminary plat can be approved
subject to the following conditions:
-volume and page numbers be shown on plat
-Fire Dept. regulations will be addressed at plan review
ALTERNATIVES: 1) Recommend approval of the request
2) Recommend disapproval of the request
3) Recommend modification of the request
ATTACHMENTS:
