(95-308 City Planner Kee presented the staff report and informed the Commission that the property is being platted in order to reflect a sale and division that has occurred. Part of the Dartmouth Street extension south from F.M. 2818 to Texas Avenue is reflected on this plat. Staff has worked with this property owner and adjacent property owners in achieving an alignment that meets City standards and is acceptable to all affected property owners. The property currently has R-1 and A-P zoning. The R-1 has been there since annexation, while the A-P was recently rezoned. The current land use plan reflects the area for office commercial uses. Lot 1, block 3 is an R-1 lot that does not meet the Zoning Ordinance requirements for a single family lot. The applicant has placed a note on the plat indicating that this is not a buildable lot. It has sufficient size to meet R-1 requirements but it does not have adequate width or depth to meet minimum requirements. Staff recommended approval of the preliminary plat as revised after the Presubmission Conference meeting. Commissioner Lightfoot moved to recommend approval of the preliminary plat of the Crystal Park Subdivision with the staff recommendations. Commissioner Smith seconded the motion which passed unopposed (5 - 0). AGENDA ITEM NO. S: Consideration of a preliminary plat of the Parkway View Addition. (95-309) City Planner Kee presented the staff report and informed the Commission that the subject property was included in a master preliminary plat that was submitted in 1976. Most of the existing developed area has been built in accordance with that plat and consists of a mix of duplex and fourplex dwellings. Currently, Southwest Parkway dead-ends in front of the five proposed duplex lots. The reserve tract shows the extension of Southwest Parkway in conformance with the Thoroughfare Plan. This extension should include sidewalks and staff recommended that at a minimum, there be wide outside lanes provided in order to be bicycle friendly. The impact studies for the preliminary plat were received after the staff report, therefore it is incomplete. At the time the reserve tract is final platted, the entire right-of--way for Southwest Parkway will be required, with one-half coming from the reserve tract and one-half from the adjoining property owner. Before construction on the five lots, a temporary turnaround at the end of the existing Southwest Parkway must be built and can be covered by an easement conveyed by separate instrument with this plat. The 8" water line may need to be upgraded and the sewer line is adequate for the five lots on this plat. There may be sewer problems for the reserve tract .and the City's waste water staff is studying this area now. Commissioner Garner moved to recommend approval of the preliminary plat of the Parkway View Addition with staff recommendations. Commissioner Smith seconded the motion which passed unopposed (5 - 0).

Representative SUBJECT: Preliminary Plat -Crystal Pay°k Subdivision; proposed subdivision totaling 35.77 acres divided into 7 total lots adjoining F.M. 2818 along the south side and 200' west of the State Highway 6 East Bypass. (95-308) A Presubmission Conference meeting was held Wednesday, July 5, 1995 to discuss the above mentioned preliminary plat. At that time, an alternate location for the Dartmouth extension was submitted. Staff informed the applicant that the alternate location did not appear to meet the minimum requirements of the Subdivision Regulations; however, staff would look at the proposal further and schedule a future meeting to discuss the alternate location. The following is a list of ordinance requirements identified by the Presubmission Conference. This list does not relieve the applicant of total compliance with all current ordinance requirements. Ordinance Requirements: Since there are no immediate plans for the existing Lakeview Acres Subdivision, show the existing conditions in that area. If there are not utilities available to those existing lots, add a general note to that effect. Note that the Morgan's Lane right-of--way is existing even as it extends through the proposed Dartmouth extension. Designate this existing right-of--way more clearly on the plat. Note the proposed Morgan's Lane right-of--way realignment. PRC Report Crystal Park Case #95-308 Page 2 of 2 Ordinance Requirements: In the title block, reference the names of the existing and proposed subdivisions. Note the "proposed Dartmouth right-of--way" dedication area. Make the lot and block designations clearer. Show the existing Dartmouth right-of--way along the north side of F.M. 2818. Correct the arrow pointing to the floodway instead of the 100 year floodplain located near the LJR Properties tract. Clarify general note #2. Submit engineer's estimates for the oversize participation requested in general note #4. Determine if lot 1 of block 5 is a buildable lot. If this lot is not a buildable lot, reference it as such in the general notes section on the plat. Comments/Concerns: The customer is responsible for 20% of the total cost of electrical service. Provide a 20' public utility easement for the existing power lines. Coordinate electrical service details with Electrical Line Designer Don Lusk at (409) 764-3660. Coordinate telephone service details and future final platting of the property with G.T.E. Representative Laverne Akin at (409) 821-4723.
