On May 21, 1992, Planning Commission recommended denial of
this plat because it did not reflect a development pattern
compatible with the SF-12 and SF-9 zoning Granted that same
night on the zoning case. When zoning went to Council on
June 9, the applicant represented that platting reflecting
SF-12 and SF-9 subdivision standards would be submitted to
Planning Commission on June 18, hence this preliminary plat
request.

ANALYSIS:
Because this plat now reflects the zoning standards
approved by Commission and Council (SF-12 and SF-9), grants
access to both Andrew Brown Park and Cottonwood Creek,
designates a homeowners association to maintain common open
space, and respects the streetscape plan relative to
Parkway Boulevard, staff is supportive of this subdivision
plat. Still to be resolved is construction of the bridge
over Cottonwood Creek, and assurance from the developer
that a pedestrian crossing under the bridge from Andrew
Brown Park to the high school will be provided.
ALTERNATIVES:
1) Approve the preliminary plat
2) Deny the preliminary plat
3) Modify preliminary plat
