ITEM
Consideration of a Final Plat for a LaCour Subdivision -Phase I.
ITEM SUMMARY AND STAFF REC011~IlVIFNDATION
This final plat contains 9:533 acres and islocated in the Wolf Pen Creek District along..
the south side of SH 30 (Harvey Rd.). It is' approximately 1050 feet east of the Texas
:Ave./SH 30 intersection, adjacentand east of the existing Taco Bell.. This plat includes
a 4..339 acre lot along SH 30 which includes .562 acres of future -Kyle Street right-of-
way and the 20° Wolfpen Creek dedication area, a 5.1 acre area of Wolf Pen Creek
Dedication, and' .094 acres of Kyle Street right-of-way adjacent to the Reserve Tract.
Wolf Pen Creek runs through the property and by ordinance, property dedication is
..required if the developer chooses not to develop `the park area at this time. This
dedication is being made in two parts with this plat. The first being the dedication as
shown of the S.1 acres, and the second will comeby separate instrument from the
buyer of Lot 1. Due to prior arrangements between the buyer and seller, the applicant.
has requested that we obtain the 20' minimum reserve area. from the owner of Lot 1
'with the. site development of that lot.
During the CIP Advisory Committee process the extension of Kyle south through this
.property was discussed and recommended. Staff would recommend this extension as
'.well. Since the Kyle extension is not on the City ° s thoroughfare plan, staff has worked
on a development agreement with. Lacour thataccommodates the City's need for the
,Kyle extension. - The development agreement will go to Council for approval at their
March 14, 1996 meeting. Details of that meeting will be available at the Planning &
Zoning Commission meeting.
Staff recommends approval of the final plat with the Presubmission Conference
comments.

ENGINEERING COMI~~NTS AND IlVIPACT STUDIES -
Water -Water is available to Lot 1 through an existing line in SH 30. Water is
not currently available to the reserve tract.- The applicant has submitted impact
studies with this final plat to address the reserve tract. In that impact study
there is not enough detail to assess any sizing requirements for future waterlines
to serve the reserve tract, nor to assess any. oversize participation.
Sewer -Available and adequate to Lot 1.
Streets -Access to Lot 1 is to SH 30 which. is adequate to handle anticipated
traffic. Although. the Kyle right-of--way is-not being dedicated with this plat, the
buyer of Lot 1 has expressed a .desire to construct Kyle street within this right-
of-way and essentially use it as a part of his site development until the right-of-
way is purchased by the City, per the development agreement. This wih avoid
any disturbance of this part of their access when Kyle street is .ultimately
constructed, as this section will already meet our street standards.
Drainage -Drainage is currently overland toward the creek. Improvements
made on Lot 1 will .have to comply with the Drainage Ordinance: and the Wolf
Pen Creek portion of the zoning ordinance at the time of site development.
