(04 -189) Applicant: Strong Surveying, agent for Anthony Jones, property owner Staff Recommendations: Staff recommends approval of the Master Plan as submitted. Item Summary: This item is for consideration of a Master Plan for an R -1 Single Family Residential development of just under 100 acres. This development will include the construction of two minor collectors. Pedestrian access ways to the school property to the west will be provided with the platting of the property. The applicant has proposed detention for this development on the adjacent property to the south, which is not yet platted. Depending on what is proposed at the time of development of the detention pond area, this property may need to be platted. Comprehensive Plan Considerations: The proposed Master Plan is in compliance with the Comprehensive Plan. The Land Use Plan shows the subject property and surrounding area as Single Family Medium Density. Alexandria Avenue and Eagle Avenue are shown as minor collectors, and Graham Road is shown as a major collector on the Thoroughfare Plan. Item Background: The subject property was annexed into the City in 1993 and zoned A -O Agricultural Open at that time. The property was rezoned to R -1 Single Family Residential earlier this year. Budgetary & Financial Summary: N/A Related Advisory Board Recommendations: The Parks Board recommended fee in lieu of land dedication. Commission Action Options: The Commission has final authority over the Master Plan. The options are: ■ Approval ■ Denial Supporting Materials: 1. Location Map 2. Aerial 3. Application 4. Infrastructure and Facilities 5. Copy of Master Plan INFRASTRUCTURE AND FACILITIES Water: There is an existing 12" water main on the south side of Graham, a 12" main along Alexandria, and a 12" main along Eagle Avenue. Sewer: There is an existing 18" sewer main on the south property line. The northwest portion of the subject property is in the 92 -01 Sewer Impact fee Area. Streets: The Thoroughfare Plan shows a minor collector street from the southwest corner of the tract connecting to Alexandria, then connecting to Eagle Avenue, then traversing the property to Graham Road toward the north. Off -site Easements: The proposed off -site drainage will require an easement from the property owner. Drainage: Drainage is to Lick Creek. According to the Drainage Ordinance, this development is not allowed to increase the 100 -year flood level, either upstream or downstream. Flood Plain: No floodplain appears on the subject property. Oversize request: Oversize participation may be requested on infrastructure at the platting stage. This issue will be reviewed based on what the development requires to develop and what is being constructed.

The current fee is $232.04 per Living Unit Equivalent. Parkland Dedication: The Parks Board recommended fee in lieu of land dedication.
