Item # 5
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN:
The Comprehensive Plan shows the property as suitable for
flood plain. However, per preliminary F.E.M.A. studies, all
but the southwest comer of the property is out of the 100-year
flood plain.
DISCUSSION:
As most of the discussion pertaining to development of this parcel is
provided within the preceding Planning Development report, staff will
limit the discussion to outstanding Preliminary Plat issues only.
Hobart Development is proposing to plat 19 single-family lots within an
"L" configuration extending from Sandy Lake Road. The applicant has
designed the subdivision to comply with the SF-9 District requirements.
The proposed plat provides two common landscape areas located on either
side of the entrance into the subdivision; lots lx and 19x. These common
areas will provide the required levels of landscaping with a 6' high
masonry screening wall; these areas will be owned and maintained by the
Homeowner's Association. The applicant must provide an elevation of
the wall.
Several staff recommendations that appeared within the Planned
Development report apply to the plat as well, and are therefore listed
again. As noted within the preceding report, the updated F.E.M.A maps
must be published prior to the applicant filing the final plat, which
indicates that the subject property is located outside the 100-year
floodplain. Staff reiterates that the floodplain lines shown on the plat
should be based on the current F.E.M.A map.
The signature blocks for the Planning & Zoning Commission Chairman
need to be omitted from the Preliminary Plat; this should be shown on the
Final Plat. There appears to be an inconsistency between the size of Lot
19 on the Zoning Exhibit and the plat; staff has asked the applicant to
remedy this.
While the applicant has provided a note on the plat that states "no
improvements will be allowed in the 100-year floodplain," Staff has
recommended that this note include drainage and sanitary sewer
easements, as well as the 100-year floodplain. This will ensure that all
approval documents reference this restriction. Although all easements
have been shown on the plat, it is possible and likely that these easements
and/or drainage patterns may be slightly altered as the applicant prepares
detailed engineering plans. These issues must be resolved prior to filing
the final plat.
Item # 5
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff is recommending APPROVAL of the preliminary plat, subject to the following conditions:
1. The final plat shall not be filed prior to the release of the updated F.E.M.A. maps,
indicating that this property has been removed from the flood plain.
2. The 100-year floodplain line should be based on the current F.E.M.A map,
published April 15, 1994.
3. Improvements within the drainage, sanitary sewer or 100-year floodplain
easements, other than perimeter fencing, are strictly prohibited. A note to this
effect shall be placed on the plat.
4. Removal of the signature blocks for the Planning and Zoning Commission
Chairman and the Mayor.
5. Resolve the inconsistency between the lot area of lot 19 on the Zoning Exhibit
and on the preliminary plat.
6. Approval of the Homeowner's association documents by the City Attorney.

8. Confirm the approval of proposed street name "Trinity Court" with our Fire
