Staff recommended that rather than <br />achieving access via a long and lengthy roadway through a <br />designated wetland that applicant achieve access via the Landmark <br />Subdivision to the immediate west. We advised applicant of the <br />ordinance amendment that would allow private roads with <br />underlying public easements to not only provide access to all <br />homes within the subdivision but the easement would also allow <br />adjacent properties to achieve reasonable access via the public <br />easement. <br />Please review the enclosed plat map. The applicant would propose <br />access via Landmark Drive and a private driveway easement through <br />Outlet C and Lot 1, Block 2, Bayside Landing. Staff has been <br />advised that the current owner of Lot 1 will grant the <br />appropriate private access easement. The applicant has asked <br />that the City Attorney reaffirm in writing that Landmark Drive <br />can be used as access to proposed Lot 1. <br />Please contact my office if you need additional information. The <br />Planning Commission wi 11 review this application at their May <br />18th meeting. Staff must be in receipt of your opinion no later <br />than May 13th. <br />Sincerely, <br />n:l,L11.,,yJ.,-a. '-/J1 ?J(...t~JC , _\ f~ (,,LL(,~ <br />Jeanne A.
