Applicant. Andrew Bernstein (95-103). Sabine Kuenzel, Senior City Planner, introduced this presentation, beginning with a brief history of the site, and explained that staff recommends denial of the rezoning for three primary reasons: ../ the conflict with multi-family residential uses to the south and to the west. ../ the parking lot would be non-conforming by 61 parking spaces ../ the traffic safety concern to avoid congestion Kuenzel added that the Planning and Zoning Board recommend approval. Ed Hard, City Transportation Planner, continued the presentation with respect to traffic analysis, rendering that if this rezoning request was approved, it would multiply the problems of this already congested area. However, there is a possibility of creating an access across the creek, which would also involve moving a large utility pole. Mayor Ringer opened the public hearing. Mr. Larry Wells, representing Andy Burnstein, explained that Burnstein is looking to put a restaurant in this shopping center, and would like to address the Zoning Board of Adjustments for flexibility in the type of restaurant that he wants to develop.

Health and Public Safety - Safe Water Supply, Low Fire Risk Item: Consideration of a final plat for Greensworld Phase II, consisting of one commercial lot totaling 3.861 acres located along SH 6 just north of the existing Greensworld golf course. Applicant is Michael Davis, owner and S.M. Kling, Engineer (95-204). Item Summary: Plat consists of 3.861 acres adjacent to the Greensworld golf course. It is being platted to accommodate a car dealership at this location. The applicant is reflecting a proposed floodplain line on this plat. A fill permit has been filed with the City and a Letter of Map Amendment is to follow. This letter, once submitted to FEMA and approved, would approve the floodplain line as depicted on this final plat. The private drainage easement on this plat will be maintained by Greensworld, per the note on the plat. Associated with this plat will be the extension of an 18" waterline along the SH 6 Bypass, which will provide water service and fire protection to Greensworld golf course as well as this lot. Per the development agreement, Greensworld was on a private water well, with no fire protection. Financial Summary: The City, per an existing development agreement, has $10,000.00 from Regency Parkway (Greensworld developer). According to this development agreement, this money was to guarantee the construction of Regency's portion of the 18" waterline. The $10,000.00 will be refunded once the waterline is built and accepted by the City. The oversize being requested is $23,000.00 per the current engineer's estimate. Funds are currently budgeted and available from Project WT9301 - Oversized waterlines. Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of the final plat with the condition that it not be filed for record until the City receives the approval letter from FEMA regarding the change in delineation of the floodplain.
