Development Review Committee Comments
Planning Department
Riverview Estates, Final Plat'
DRC Date: October 31, 1996
Planning & Zoning Commission Meeting: November 21, 1996
City Council Meeting: December 10, 1996
In November of 1995 City Council granted a 6-month extension of the validity of the
Preliminary Plat of this property as approved in 1991. Therefore, this review has no application
unless Council extends the validity of the Preliminary Plat through October 23, 1996.
The Preliminary Plat shows 61 lots. The Final Plat shows 66 lots on essentially the same street
and alley configuration. Planning staff will recommend that, if the validity of the Preliminary
Plat is extended, it should be conditional upon the number of lots in the subdivision remaining
no greater than 61. If Council agrees to extend the Preliminary Plat and permit a greater
number of lots in the Final Plat, planning staff will recommend that the additional lots be subject
to roadway impact fees and park fees.
The block fronting Sunrise Drive needs to be shown as Block C and the lots renumbered. If the
number of lots facing the south side of Grapevine Creek Drive is to remain 13, there needs to be
an adjustment to give as much additional lot width to Lot 13 as possible. Planning staff
recommends that the alley between Lots 6 and 7 be removed to accomplish that result.
Lot 29, Block A, looks to be less than 9000 square feet. We suggest that the west line be radial
to the street and calculated to provide a 9000 square foot lot. We believe this would improve
the buildable area for LOt 30.
There needs to be an indication of where the street names change. Trinity l. ane should be Blade
Point Drive.
Behind LOt 36, there needs to be an alley radius provided to accommodate the turn to the. north
on the alley already constructed in Eagle Point Village.
