Already exist along Southwest Parkway. Bike lanes will be striped along the Central Park Lane extension through this property. IMPACT STUDIES Water & Sewer: Available. Adequate to serve this development. Extensions will be required to loop the system. Traffic: Staff is in agreement with the impact study in that Southwest Parkway and the new section of Central Park Lane can handle the additional traffic generated by the development. The impact study did not address the size or right-of--way requirements for the street extension. It also did not address any need for oversize participation. Staff will require a 47' paved section in a 70' right-of--way for Central Park Lane due to the multi-family land uses planned on both sides of this street along its extension to Krenek Tap Road. This size of street is also needed to provide for bikeways as per the Bikeway Master Plan. Drainage: Drainage is overland at present. Drainage improvements to handle increased runoff will be designed at the time of site development. STAFF COMMENTS /RECOMMENDATIONS A presubmission conference was held on 12-21 to review this preliminary plat. Staff recommends approval with comments which include correcting some building setback lines and noting that a temporary turnaround needs to be completed with the construction of Central Park Lane or a variance requested and granted.
