COMPREHENSIVE PLAN:

ANALYSIS:
During its December meeting, the Planning and Zoning Commission
reviewed the preliminary plat for Riverview Plaza and recommended
approval. At that time, staff had numerous cOncerns with the engineering
plans submitted and the potential traffic problems that could occur on this
site. These issues have been resolved at staff level and with the City
Council, and the applicant has amended his plat and plans to reflect these
concerns.
Several conditions were attached to the preliminary plat approval during
City Council consideration. The conditions of approval are as follows:
1) Right turn only into the property at the southwest corner;
2) a right turn lane from MacArthur Boulevard to Riverchase
Drive, (as volunteered by the applicant at the January 1 lth City
Council public heating), and;
3) Modification of MacArthur Boulevard median.
Because this land is zoned for commercial use, the Land Plan calls for it
to be utilized as commercial use, and the applicant is proposing
commercial use, staff is in general agreement with the request.
ALTERNATIVES:
1) Approve the final plat request.
2) Deny the final plat request.
3) Modify the final plat request.
ATTACHMENTS: 1) Final Plat
