in the floodplain.
DISCUSSION: The lot sizes of this particular subdivision are exceptionally large ranging

in the floodplain unless a flood study is approved by the City and FEMA.
The applicant is requesting three variances from City Council: 1) the
deletion of the alley requirement; 2) A waiver of concrete pavement and
enclosed storm drainage system; and 3) the elimination of the sidewalk
requirement.
