ANALYSIS:
Many of the unresolved issues that were presented during the rezoning
process have been resubmitted and staff and the developer/owner are
getting most of the issues resolved. One of the remaining concerns is that
the fight-of-way for Moore Road is not indicated on the preliminary plat,
and needs to be shown. The other issue is that the drainage easement
needed for Block C, Lots 4, 5 and 6, are not shown on the plat.
The Hom~wners Association Maintenance Agreement has been submitted
for review and staff is in the process of reviewing it for conformance.
Staff recommends approval of the preliminary plat; however, we request
that the easements and the fight-of-way be shown on the preliminary and
final plats,
ALTERNATIVES:
1) Approve the preliminary plat
2) Deny the preliminary plat
3) Modify the preliminary plat
