(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 5: Consideration of a preliminary plat of the Parkway View Addition. (95-30~ 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).
