Zoning File #2339 March 4,1998 Page 2 Planning Commission Recommendation Planning Commission recommended approval of the preliminary plat subject to the following conditions: 1. Plat a 42' private road outlot along the length of the southerly property boundary (assuming that the City has a legitimate 8' road easement over the adjacent property). 2. Build a 28' paved width private road from Tonkawa Road to approximately the mid point of Lot 1, with a T emergency vehicle turnaround as proposed in revised plan. 3. Lots 1, 2 and 3 should be credited with 17' of the road outlot area for hardcover calculation purposes, based on the fact that applicant is providing 17' more than half of a 50' road corridor that will serve the entire neighborhood. 4. Subject to items #5,6, 7 of February 13, 1998 staff memo: (5) The applicant should address all grading and drainage is and develop a plan for a water quality pond on the site per the F -'s recommendation (This is required before Council can nal preliminary plat approval). (6) The standard park dedication fee should be required. (7) The standard drainage and utility easements should be required. Staff Recommendation Regarding Future Access Staff concurs with the recommendation that this subdivider be required to plat a private road outlot along the southerly border for the entire width of the property, to accomodate potential future road needs. An underlying road and utility easement would be granted to the City. One way to minimize the impact of this road outlot is to make use of the 8' access easement on the adjacent property to the south. That roadway easement appears to have been created in the 1950s or earlier, and would need to be confirmed as legitimate and acceptable by the City Attorney. Assuming it is usable, only a 42' right-of-way need be platted from applicant's property. The applicant's revised plat drawing (Exhibit E) depicts this arrangement.
