The purpose for the extension in time is due to the following reasons. 1. A massive amount of site preparation is taking place to precede development. 2. We have been involved with the City and the State to acquire the right-of-way needed to construct Parkway Boulevard. 3. The bridge and related infrastructure needs to be designed prior to final plat submittal. This design is more extensive than other less complicated projects. 4. The preliminary plat that was approved is the basis for all of our improvements to date, including the zoning, which was previously approved, and will serve as a basis for future improvements. Ms. Taryon Bowman Page 2 April 29, 1993 I am requesting a one year extension in time from the City Council approved date stated below. Per our conversation this procedure could be on the May 20, 1993 Planning & Zoning Agenda and the June 8, 1993 City Council Agenda.
