Ball Memorial Subdivision located oi~ the southwest corner of Rock Prairie Road and :State Highway 6. (94-31.5} Consideration of a final plat for the L.O.. Ball Memorial Subdivision located o-t the southwest corner of Rock Prairie Road and State Highway 6. (94-243)t/ City Planner Kee informed the .Commission that she was going to present the staff reports for both the preliminary plat and final plat for the L.O. Ball Ivlemorlal Subdivision. With respect to the preliminary plat, all of the comments from the Presubmission Conference report have been addressed with the exception of complete impact studies. and a public utility. easement to cover the power poles along Rock Prairie Road. The preliminary. plat consists of a 1.43 acre lot at the corner. of :Rock Prairie Road and. the State Highway 6 Frontage Road and a 27.58 acre reserve tract. This plat is being submitted in order that the 1:4~ acre tract can be developed at this time. The dedication of the Longmire right-of--way and its associated construction will occur with the final platting. and .development of the reserve tract. Lot 1 is approximately 5% of the overall subdivision and lot 1 is not guaranteeing with the City. any portion of the Longmire extension construction. Staff has no problem with this because of the small size of lot l; however, we are putting the owner of the reserve tract on notice through this staff report that there will be no future subdivisions of the reserve- tract. without the extension of Longmire: Staff would not be in favor of platting any of the reserve tract, .regardless of its location relative to Longmire, without the construction of Longmire. Staff is trying. to avoid piecemeal` platting of the reserve tract so that we do not' end up with another Welsh .Street situation, wherein the area remaining to be developed cannot support the cost of the street. According. to the impact studies, the reservation of the right-of--way for a right turn is appropriate at this time. The 1.43 acre corner tract is willing to dedicate the right-of-way for this right turn lane: Based on the,possible permitted uses in the C-2 district, full .development of the parent tract may necessitate .construction of the right turn lane. For this reason, the. preliminary plat should be conditioned upon the construction of the turn lane prior to any future final .platting of the parent tract. Access to lot 1 will occur directly across from the Victoria Bank access: This will .necessitate an access easement granted from the reserve tract. This combined access point will be the only curb cut allowed on Rock Prairie Road east of the Longmire intersection. A curb cut may be allowed along the Frontage Road depending on the location of the. entrance ramp.. Although staff feels the amount of traffic estimated in the impact study to be generated from the development is on the low side, we are in agreement that the capacity of surrounding roadways can accommodate the additional traffic that will occur from development of the 29 acre tract. Accessfor the reserve tract will be reviewed at the time of final platting and again at the time of site. plan review.
