ANALYSIS:
When this plat was originally presented to the Planning & Zoning
Commission and the City Council last year, staff did not object to the
approval of this case, however, we were concerned about a proposed
median opening with a left-turn lane along MacArthur Boulevard. The
plat has been revised and the previous problem has now been resolved.
There is concern that there may be some difficulty building a residence on
lot 15, block G. Considering the drainage easement on the north side of
the lot along with a 30 foot sewer easement on the south side, we doubt
that the builder will be able to make it work, so it would make more sense
to eliminate the lot during the platting stage rather than making the
attempt to plat it and then concluding that a structure won't fit. The
engineer (Dowdey Anderson)) has assured us that Lot 15 is a buildable
site.
Staff recommends approval of the preliminary plat. However, we have
the following concerns:
Water, sewer and drainage plans need to be submitted to the City
Engineer and three variances should be requested on the face of the plat:
1)
2)
3)
Variance for the minimum center line radius from 425 to
150 feet.
Variance for the deletion of alleys for lots 1-15, Block G.
Variance to allow a cul-de-sac length of more than 600
feet.
1) Approve the plat with the variances requested.
2) Deny the plat.
3) Modify the plat.
