Lot 1, Block 5. This should be 3 feet higher than floodplain elevation. FYI: As
required by Section ll. D. of the Drainage Policy.

STAFF REPORT
Item: A Final Plat of approximately 50.78 acres, Pebble Hills Estates Phase 1 Subdivision
located on the north side of Greens Prairie Road approximately 1400 feet east of State Highway
6. (99-227)
Applicant: Jerry Windham and Frank Thurmond.
Item Summary: The Final Plat of 50.78 acres is in general conformance with the Preliminary
Plat, which was approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission on December 2, 1999.
The final plat is for 111 single-family lots, 3.21 acres of parkland dedication, and 11.16 of
greenbelt dedication. The average lot size is 10,654 square feet. The gross density is 2.1
dwelling units per acre, and the net density (excluding rights-of--way and parkland dedication)
will be 4.1 dwelling units per acre. The Land Use Plan shows the area as medium density single
family with a density range of 3 to 6 dwelling units per acre. The property was re-zoned to R-1
by the City Council in July 1996. The property to the north is zoned R-1, to the east and
northwest A-O, and to the south and southwest C-1. All surrounding properties are currently
undeveloped with the exception of CIC insurance to the south across Greens Prairie Road.
The development will include a parkway style entrance, a minor collector loop street system and
four cul-de-sac local streets.
Item Background: The Preliminary Plat for 56.06 acres was re-approved by the Planning and
Zoning Commission on December 2, 1999. That Preliminary Plat was in general conformance
with the Pebble Hills Estates Master Development Plan approved in August 1996 by the
Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council. Several revisions have been made, but
none affecting this portion of the development. On September 19, 1996, the Planning and Zoning
Commission approved this preliminary plat. However, the project could not move forward due
to the lack of sewer availability. The previously approved preliminary plat expired after 18
months. The Spring Creek Impact Fee Sewer Trunk line was completed approximately 4 months
ago.
Budgetary & Financial Summary: N/A
Staff Recommendations: Staff recommends approval of the Final Plat with the condition that

INFRASTRUCTURE AND FACILITIES
Water: An 18-inch water line currently exists in Greens Prairie Road. Water will be
extended and looped through the subdivision at the final platting stage.
Sewer: An impact fee based CIP project was completed approximately 4 months ago
which extended sewer service along Spring Creek through the northern portion of this
proposed subdivision. Sewer service will be extended throughout the subdivision as
part of the platting process. A Sewer Impact Fee of $349.55 per Living Unit
($38,800.05) is required, prior to filing the plat.
Streets: The property has frontage along Greens Prairie Road. The development will
include a parkway style entrance, a minor collector loop street system and four cul-de-
sac local streets. No city Thoroughfares extend through this property.
Off-site Easements: None required
Drainage: A detention pond will be constructed within the parkland dedication area to
serve the development. The Parks Board reviewed this plan in July 1999.
Flood Plain: FEMA approved a Letter of Map Revision to define the flood plain along
Spring Creek in October 1999. The Final Plat shows that no lots are contained within
the existing floodplain. In accordance with our drainage ordinance, all home adjacent
to the creek will be required to be elevated to 3 feet above base flood elevation. A note
stating the minimum finished floor elevation has been added to the plat.
Oversize request: None
Impact Fees: The property lies wholly within sanitary sewer impact fee area 97-01.
At present the fees are $349.55 per living unit equivalent (LUE). Impact fees are
collected at time of final platting of the subdivision.
Parkland: 3.21 acres will be dedicated for parkland. The detention pond to serve this
development will be located within this parkland area. The Parks Board approved this
in July 1999 and reviewed minor modifications on November 17, 1999. In addition,
11.16 acres of predominately floodplain area is proposed as a Green Belt. The
applicant is required to pay $309.00 per residential lot of parkland development.
