COMPREflENSIVE PLAN:
The Comprehensive Plan shows low density, single-family
residential development for this area.
ITEM
ANALYSIS: This is basically a housekeeping exercise to insure proper
drainage results from development of this area.
When the property was originally platted approximately two
years ago, it was subdivided with an alley behind Lots
30-41. Subsequent to construction, it was brought to
staff's attention that for proper drainage to occur along
DeForest Road, and to insure there was not a sheer drop-off
between those lots and DeForest, it would be worth
considering eliminating the alley behind these 10ts so
proper grading and a gabian wall might be built.
Engineering has looked at that possibility, reported its
positive reaction to such a solution during development
review, and suggested a replat document. The Development
Review Committee has analyzed this proposal, and except for
the typical comments relative to 50 foot wide lots with
front entry, and the potential aesthetic problem created,
recommends approval of the replat which eliminates the
alley behind Lots 30-41.
ALTERNATIVES: 1) Approve the replat 2) Deny the replat
3) Modify the replat
