Preliminary Plat for the Westfield Village Subdivision, consisting of 75.651 acres located at the
intersection of Barron Road and Victoria Avenue. (01-271)
Graduate Engineer Thompson presented the Staff Report. He stated that it does not appear that
the applicant will be able to meet the access point criteria in the development of Phase 1. Staff
is asking that Phase 1 be separated into two phases, i.e., Phase IA, with the development of the
first 50 lots and one access point. Phase 1B would need an additional access point for
additional lots. This can be controlled at the time of the Final Plat. The intent of the rezoning
was to provide a street access to the street.
Mike McClure stated that the applicant is prepared to provide an emergency access-way to
solve this issue. Alexandria is about to build out and the last phase in it would build Newport
Lane. We believe there are several options to this issue.
Commissioner Happ motioned to approve the Master Preliminary Plat with the
recommendations of Staff. Commission Trapani seconded the motion. The motion carried 6-0.
3.6 Moved to the Regular Agenda the consideration, discussion, and possible action on a Final Plat
for the Townhomes at Canyon Creek Subdivision consisting of 5.953 acres located at 1267
Harvey Mitchell Parkway South. (01-272)
Graduate Engineer Thompson presented the Staff Report. Mr. Thompson stated that the plat
meets all of the requirements and recommends approval. The applicant wishes to supply utility
easements to the back of each of the buildings.
