REQUEST: Approval of a replat.

HISTORY: A final plat was approved by the City Council in 1992.
Item 12
TRANSPORTATION: This subdivision will be accessed by way of Bethel School Road,
which is a two-lane roadway. The major bulk of the traffic will
travel from Denton Tap Road.
ANALYSIS: A hydrologic flood study has been submitted to show that the
adjustment to the floodway will not have any adverse affect on the
water surface. However, the adjustment to the floodway will
necessitate the removal of a 6' cedar elm, twin 4' cedar elm, 3'
oak, 44' haekberry and possibly a twin 6' cedar elm. When the
applicant originally requested a variance to allow the drainage
area to remain open through this area, the reasoning behind it was
to protect and save the trees on the lot. The city engineer has
recommended that the City approve .these adjustments to the
floodway and that the owner of lot 4 be required to replace caliper
inch per caliper inch for each tree removed by the adjustment to
the floodway.
Attached is a letter from the applicant that states their position,
which is an agreement to replace the trees, caliper inch for caliper
inch. Staff has no objections to the approval of the replat.
ALTERNATIVES: 1) Approve the plat.
2) Deny the plat.
3) Modify the plat.
ATTACHMENTS: 1) Replat
2) Letter from applicant
3) Plot plans
