TRANSPORTATION: Sandy Lake Road is currently a two-lane asphalt road. On the Thoroughfare Plan, it is designated as a C4D/6. Initial improvement will be to a four-lane divided thoroughfare and could be expanded to six-lanes in the future. SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING: North- Undeveloped; A (Agriculture) South - Single-Family homes and golf course; SF-7, Eagle Point Village at Riverchase and Riverchase Golf Course West - Single-Family homes and undeveloped; SF-9, Riverview Estates and R (Retail) East - Bait Shop and out-buildings and Trinity River Flood Plain; R (Retail) COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan shows the property as suitable for flood plain. However, per preliminar3.' F.E.M.A. studies, all but the southwest comer of the property is out of the 100- year flood plain. DISCUSSION: This final plat is in conformance with the approved preliminary plat for this property, which indicated 19 single-family lots and two common areas within an "L' configuration extending from Sandy Lake Road. This subdivision is zoned PD-190, SF-9 and is in compliance with the SF-9 District requirements, as well as additional conditions specific to this PD. The Planned Development conditions include the screening and landscaping of the common areas, decorative metal fencing adjacent to the golf course area, solid fencing along the neighbors to the east, swing entry, garages, waiver of the alley requirement and cul-de-sac length. The common areas will be owned and maintained by the Homeowners Association. The City Attorney has reviewed and approved the Homeowners Association documents. One of the main technical issues with this plat was the delineation of the 100-year flood plain. The updated F.E.M.A maps were published last month, which indicate that all but a small comer of the subject property is located outside the 100-year flood plain, and is therefore developable. The Engineering Department has several comments as they relate to final engineering and construction of this subdivision. These comments will Item # 9 Page 2 of 3 not have a significant impact on the layout of the lots or the design of the plat as shown. They are attached hereto for informational purposes to the applicant.
