Representative of the owner Robert Todd informed the Commission that he agreed with the staff recommendations and will comply. 1Viichael Ilan of 32 Forest Drive approached the Commission and stated that many of the homeowners of the Post Oak Forest Subdivision aze against the rezoning request. The A-P Administrative Professional zoning district would be more appropriate for this azea primarily due to its proximity to residential development. President of the Post Oak Forest homeowners association stated that he agreed with; Mr. Ha11 and that the proposed rezoning would .negatively affect their property values. Traffic congestion along this section of University Drive is a problem without adding more commercial development. Commissioner Lightfoot closed the public hearing.

The two phases will exit via one street onto the East By-Pass West Frontage Road. A rezoning request for C-1 General Commercial was granted for a portion (21.5 acres) of this property in August 1996. At that time the rezoning was approved as recommended by the Planning & Zoning Commission with the condition that the applicant be allowed to reclaim flood plain along the northern boundary of the floodway (with no disturbance of the floodway) and the azea from the northern boundary of the floodway to the southern property line be considered a "non-disturbance azea".

The plat shows the extension of Longmire Drive through the property as a minor arterial. The property is bound by Birmingham on the north (collector) and Graham on the south (minor arterial). The zoning ordinance grants the Commission discretion to require streetscaping along collector roadways. The presubmission conference staff recommends requiring streetscaping on Birmingham along with the other two arterials, with installation any plantings along roadways to' be with the development of each lot rather than at the time of plat filing. Staff recommended approval with the comments in the presubmission conference report, includeing streetscaping along Birmingham which is in keeping with policy regarding streetscaping of commercial collector roadways. A rezoning request will follow in the near future and any approval of this preliminary plat should be made contingent upon a successful rezoning as well.
