SUBJECT: DEVELOPMENT PLAT for PATERSON ESTATE
Item: Consideration, discussion, and possible action on a Development Plat for the
Paterson Estate consisting of 1 lot on 20 acres generally located at 2192 Bradley Road.
(04- 00500202)
Applicant: Kerr Surveying, Agent for George and Candace Paterson, Owners
Staff Recommendations: Staff recommends approval of the Development Plat.
Item Summary: This item is for consideration of a Development Plat. A Development
Plat is required under Article 3 of the UDO. The property owners are seeking to
construct a new, slab on grade, wood -frame home to replace the existing manufactured
home. A Development Plat basically depicts existing and proposed structures and on-
site and adjacent property information. It must also conform to the City's
Comprehensive Plan, current and future City facilities and extension of infrastructure. A
Development Plat allows the City to require dedication or construction of infrastructure
to comply with the Comprehensive Plan. This plat is in compliance with the
Comprehensive Plan..
The subject property is located on Bradley Road near the Carter Lake community.
Bradley is a County Road. Water service to the subject property is by the Wellborn
SUD in the Wellborn certificated area (CCN). The Applicant is requesting a variance to
the requirement to extend the public water supply to provide a fire hydrant. Compliance
with this provision would require that a new water line be extended from Rock Prairie
Road; approximately 3,000 feet. The Applicant is requesting a variance before the
Construction Board for this item in order to obtain a Building Permit. The
recommendation from City staff, Fire and Building, to the Board regarding the variance
is for approval with the condition the existing mobile home is removed after construction
of the new home. In some cases an applicant requesting such a variance is required to
install a residential fire sprinkler system in the new home. Residential sprinkler systems
can be supplied by water systems with lower pressures in most cases. The
Construction Board will hear the case at the 9/13/04 meeting. Results of the meeting
will be available for the Thursday night P &Z meeting on 9/16/04.
